Pharmacologic inhibition of somatostatin receptor 2 to restore glucagon counterregulation in diabetes

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
Glucose homeostasis is primarily maintained by pancreatic hormones, insulin and glucagon, with an emerging role for a third islet hormone, somatostatin, in regulating insulin and glucagon responses.

Gestational Hypoxia Disrupts Medial Ganglionic Eminence Progenitor Dynamics and Interneuron Development in Schizophrenia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
FES‐derived MGE spheroids exhibit progenitor‐stage alterations in developmental trajectory and hypoxia‐responsive transcriptional programs, followed by functional disruption. Gestational hypoxia recapitulates impaired progenitor proliferation, shortened cell‐cycle progression, interneuron developmental abnormalities, and schizophrenia‐like behaviors in

Intestinal wall damage in simple lleus in rabbits: Immune-modulator role of somatostatin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Background/Aims: We aim to determine in which way the local immune system would be responsible for the structural changes in intestinal obstruction, and how these are influenced by Somatostatin, an intestinal peptide with immunomodulatory properties ...

Mapping alterations in the local synchrony of the cerebral cortex in schizophrenia

open access: yesEuropean Psychiatry, 2023
Background Observations from different fields of research coincide in indicating that a defective gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) interneuron system may be among the primary factors accounting for the varied clinical expression of schizophrenia.

Somatostatin receptor subtype 2A immunohistochemistry using a new monoclonal antibody selects tumors suitable for in vivo somatostatin receptor targeting

open access: yes, 2012
High overexpression of somatostatin receptors in neuroendocrine tumors allows imaging and radiotherapy with radiolabeled somatostatin analogues. To ascertain whether a tumor is suitable for in vivo somatostatin receptor targeting, its somatostatin ...

In Vivo Direct Reprogramming: Current Progress and Future Prospects from Mechanisms to Therapeutic Application

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review examines the potential of in vivo direct reprogramming in regenerative medicine for functional tissue restoration, highlighting the role of tissue‐resident cues in generating functionally mature reprogrammed cells from lineage‐related cells. It contains a discussion on mechanisms, reprogramming factors, delivery approaches, and applications

The Crystal Structure Elucidation of a Tetrapeptide Analog of Somatostatin DOTA-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr-OMe

open access: yesCrystals, 2021
Herewith, we report for the first time the crystal structure of tetrapeptide FwKT (Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr), which is considered to represent an epitope for biomedically relevant hormone somatostatin.

Decoding the Neural Circuit Underlying Context‐Cue Association in Retrieval of Morphine Reward Memory

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Contextual cues recruit the glutamatergic vCA1–dmPFC pathway to retrieve morphine reward memory by reshaping cell‐type‐specific prefrontal microcircuit activity. Distinct regulation of PV+ and SST+ interneurons defines this hippocampal–prefrontal mechanism.

Co‐activation of Selective Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Subtypes Is Required for Neuroprotection against Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beta‐amyloid peptide (Aβ)‐induced suppression of hippocampal GABAergic interneuron activity drives hyperexcitability, amyloid pathology, and cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease (AD), suggesting that enhancing hippocampal inhibition may be protective.

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis on the Role of Somatostatin Therapy in Non-Variceal Gastrointestinal Bleeding

open access: yesGastroenterology Insights
Background and Aims: Non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (NVUGIB) is a common cause of hospitalizations, with proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) being the mainstay treatment.
