Unresectable Recurrent Multiple Meningioma: A Case Report with Radiological Response to Somatostatin Analogues

open access: yesCase Reports in Oncology, 2016
Medical treatment of meningiomas is reserved for cases in which surgery and radiotherapy have failed. Given that a high percentage of meningiomas express somatostatin receptors, treatment with somatostatin analogues has been proposed.

A computational study of somatostatin subtype-4 receptor agonist binding

open access: yesSN Applied Sciences, 2022
The somatostatin subtype-4 receptor (sst4) is highly expressed in neocortical and hippocampal areas, which are affected by amyloid beta accumulation. Sst4 agonists enhance downstream activity of amyloid beta peptide catabolism through neprilysin and may ...

Pituitary somatostatin receptor signaling [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2010
Somatotropin-release inhibitory factor (SRIF) is a major regulator of pituitary function, mostly inhibiting hormone secretion and to a lesser extent pituitary cell growth. Five SRIF receptor subtypes (SSTR1-5) are ubiquitously expressed G-protein coupled receptors.

Bidirectional plasticity of GABAergic tonic inhibition in hippocampal somatostatin- and parvalbumin-containing interneurons

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2023
GABAA receptors present in extrasynaptic areas mediate tonic inhibition in hippocampal neurons regulating the performance of neural networks. In this study, we investigated the effect of NMDA-induced plasticity on tonic inhibition in somatostatin- and ...

On the G-protein-coupled receptor heteromers and their allosteric receptor-receptor interactions in the central nervous system: focus on their role in pain modulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The modulatory role of allosteric receptor-receptor interactions in the pain pathways of the Central Nervous System and the peripheral nociceptors has become of increasing interest.

Somatostatin Serves a Modulatory Role in the Mouse Olfactory Bulb: Neuroanatomical and Behavioral Evidence

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019
Somatostatin (SOM) and somatostatin receptors (SSTR1–4) are present in all olfactory structures, including the olfactory bulb (OB), where SOM modulates physiological gamma rhythms and olfactory discrimination responses.

Two Birds with One Stone: Skull Base Meningioma and Jugulotympanic Paragangliomas with Somatostatin Receptor Positron Emission Tomography

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
We describe the case of a 74-year-old female patient previously treated with radiation therapy for a meningioma of the skull base and with surgery for a right tympanic paraganglioma.

A receptor-based analysis of local ecosystems in the human brain. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BackgroundAs a complex system, the brain is a self-organizing entity that depends on local interactions among cells. Its regions (anatomically defined nuclei and areas) can be conceptualized as cellular ecosystems, but the similarity of their functional ...

Agonists, Antagonists and Receptors of Somatostatin: Pathophysiological and Therapeutical Implications in Neoplasias

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology
Somatostatin is a peptide that plays a variety of roles such as neurotransmitter and endocrine regulator; its actions as a cell regulator in various tissues of the human body are represented mainly by inhibitory effects, and it shows potent activity ...
