The peptide hormone/neurotransmitter somatostatin (somatotropin release inhibiting factor;
SRIF) and its receptors (sst1–sst5) appear to regulate many physiological functions in the …

The mouse somatostatin (somatotropin release inhibiting factor, SRIF) sst5 receptor coding
sequence was cloned from a mouse BALB/c genomic library. It shows 97% and 81 …

The biological actions of the neuromodulator somatostatin are mediated through a family of
G-protein-coupled receptors, of which five members, sst1–5, have been identified. Although …

The distribution and nature of (somatostatin) SRIF receptors and receptor mRNAs was
studied in the brain and periphery of various laboratory animals using in situ hybridisation …

Somatostatin (SRIF) SS-1 binding sites were initially defined in radioligand binding studies
performed in rat brain cerebral cortex membranes using [125I] 204-090 (a radiolabelled Tyr3 …

To investigate the effects of somatostatin (somatotropin release-inhibiting factor, SRIF) on
the regulation of SST2A receptors in mammalian brain, we examined how blockade of SRIF …

Somatostatin (SRIF) SS-2 binding sites were originally defined in rat brain cerebral cortex
membranes using [125I] Tyr11-SRIF-14 in the presence of 120 mM NaCl. These sites were …

The messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of somatostatin (SRIF) receptors SSTR-1, SSTR-2,
SSTR-3, SSTR-4 and SSTR-5 (called sst1–5, now) was studied in rat brain between …

Somatostatin is known to have diverse neurophysiological effects in the mammalian CNS.
To date, genes for five different receptors, termed sst1–5, have been isolated. Recently …

The expression of sst2A and sst2B somatostatin (SRIH) receptor splice variants was
examined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in rat brain and pituitary. Two sets of primers …
