Somatostatin Antibody (906552) [Unconjugated]

Somatostatin (SST), also known as SMST, is a 116 amino acid (aa) peptide hormone protein and shares 96% aa identity with mouse and rat SST. It exists as a preproprotein that is cleaved into a proprotein form and then subsequently into 14 aa and 28 aa active peptide forms. SST is secreted by many tissues throughout the body and inhibits the secretion of many other hormones. Some of its major roles are inhibiting growth hormone secretion by the pituitary gland, insulin and glucagon secretion in pancreatic islets, and secretion of gastrointestinal tract hormones such as gastrin. Additionally, SST has been shown to have neuromodulatory activity.
