Versatile Functions of Somatostatin and Somatostatin Receptors in the Gastrointestinal System
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2021 Somatostatin (SST) and somatostatin receptors (SSTRs) play an important role in the brain and gastrointestinal (GI) system. SST is produced in various organs and cells, and the inhibitory function of somatostatin-containing cells is involved in a range ...
