Astrocytes Modulate Somatostatin Interneuron Signaling in the Visual Cortex

Cells, 2022
At glutamatergic synapses, astrocytes respond to the neurotransmitter glutamate with intracellular Ca2+ elevations and the release of gliotransmitters that modulate synaptic transmission.

Circuit dissection of the role of somatostatin in itch and pain [PDF]

, 2018
Stimuli that elicit itch are detected by sensory neurons that innervate the skin. This information is processed by the spinal cord; however, the way in which this occurs is still poorly understood.

Efficacy and Safety of Nasal Immunisation with Somatostatin DNA Vaccine for Growth Promotion in Fattening Pigs

Animals, 2022
This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the SS DNA vaccine on growing pigs. Randomly, 147 pigs were divided into four groups, treatment 1 (T1, 3 × 109 CFU/mL, n = 39), T2 (3 × 108 CFU/mL, n = 35), T3 (3 × 107 CFU/mL, n = 35) and control ...

Growth Hormone (GH)-Releasing Peptide Stimulation of GH Release from Human Somatotroph Adenoma Cells: Interaction with GH-Releasing Hormone, Thyrotropin- Releasing Hormone, and Octreotide. [PDF]

, 1994
The synthetic hexapeptide GH-releasing peptide (GHRP; His-D-Trp-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH2) specifically stimulates GH secretion in humans in vivo and in animals in vitro and in vivo via a still unknown receptor and mechanism.

The decrease in growth hormone (GH) response after repeated stimulation with GH-Releasing hormone is partly caused by an elevation of somatostatin tonus. [PDF]

, 1996
Repeated injection of GHRH leads to a decrease in the GH response in normal subjects. Arginine (Arg) stimulates GH secretion by suppression of hypothalamic somatostatin.

Effect of Intraduodenal Bile and Taurodeoxycholate on Exocrine Pancreatic Secretion and on Plasma Levels of Vasoactive Intestinal Polypeptide and Somatostatin in Man [PDF]

, 1994
Intraduodenal (i.d.) application of bile or Na-taurodeoxycholate (TDC) dose dependently enhances basal exocrine pancreatic secretion. The hydrokinetic effect is mediated at least in part by secretin.

Pasireotide for the Medical Management of Feline Hypersomatotropism [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Feline hypersomatotropism (HST) is a cause of diabetes mellitus in cats. Pasireotide is a novel multireceptor ligand somatostatin analog that improves biochemical control of humans with HST.

Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Switching to Pasireotide in Patients With Acromegaly Inadequately Controlled With First-Generation Somatostatin Analogs

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Introduction: Acromegaly is a rare, serious endocrine disorder characterized by excess growth hormone (GH) secretion by a pituitary adenoma and overproduction of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I).

Long Acting Somatostatin Analogue: Clinical Potential for Gastrointestinal Disease

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1989
Name somatostatin is found throughout the gastrointestinal tract and has a wide variety of biological actions. Nevertheless, its short biological half-life and limited stability necessitate its use via continuous parenteral infusion and, thus, limits its
