sst4 Human Somatostatin GPCR Cell Based Agonist & Antagonist cAMP LeadHunter Assay - FR
OVERVIEW
DOCUMENTS/REFERENCES
Biological Information
Background Information:
Somatostatin (SS) is a neurotransmitter/hormone with a wide range of biological actions. Somatostatin mediates its diverse physiological effects through a family of five G-protein-coupled receptors (sst1-sst5). A reduction in cortical SS levels has been reported in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases.

Clinical Relevance
Therapeutic Area:
Gastroenterology
Adverse / Beneficial Action:
A reduction in cortical SS levels has been reported in Alzheimers and Parkinsons diseases. The SS analog, octreotide (SMS 201995), is used clinically in the treatment of certain tumors, carcinoid syndrome, and glucagonoma. Somatostatin inhibits cell proliferation and growth hormone secretion. Somatostatin released from capsaicin-sensitive afferents exerts systemic anti-nociceptive actions, presumably via somatostatin receptor subtype 4 (sst4).
