Know More About Somatostatin
- Somatostatin (SRIF) functions as an inhibitor of growth hormone release from the anterior pituitary, thereby acting as an antagonist to the growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF).
- Additionally, somatostatin suppresses the secretion of various hormones that play critical roles in regulating essential physiological functions of the gastrointestinal tract. It also inhibits the production of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH).
- Highassay is your professional Somatostatin supplier in China and offers GMP-graded high-quality materials with competitive prices and free samples.
Applications of Somatostatin
Endocrine Disorders Acromegaly: Effectively suppresses excessive growth hormone (GH) secretion, thereby alleviating associated symptoms
Gastrointestinal Disorders Pancreatitis: Effectively inhibits pancreatic enzyme secretion, thereby reducing inflammation and promoting recovery in acute pancreatitis.
Cancer Treatment Neuroendocrine Tumors (NETs): Effectively controls symptoms in gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) by inhibiting the secretion of various hormones, including serotonin and gastrin.
Ophthalmic Diseases: Some studies have investigated its anti-angiogenic effects in the context of diabetic retinopathy.
