In the majority of cases, acromegaly is due to GH hypersecretion by a somatotroph pituitary tumor. The etiology of acromegaly is not known, and may be related to GHRH hypersecretion, intrinsic pituitary defect, or a combination thereof. Recent physiologic data and molecular biology techniques provide insights into the pathophysiology of this condition.

ABSTRACT Somatostatin receptors (SSTR) mediate the antiproliferative, antisecretory, and proapoptotic effects of somatostatin and its synthetic analogs. Their surface expression on neuroendocrine tumor (NET) cells is required for somatostatin analog therapy and radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT).
