Somatostatin (SST), a regulatory peptide, is produced by neuroendocrine, inflammatory, and
immune cells in response to ions, nutrients, neuropeptides, neurotransmitters, thyroid and …

Somatostatin and dopamine are two major neurotransmitter systems that share a number of
structural and functional characteristics. Somatostatin receptors and dopamine receptors are …

The existence of receptor dimers has been proposed for several G protein-coupled receptors.
However, the question of whether G protein-coupled receptor dimers are necessary for …

Recurring chromosomal translocations involving chromosome 11, band q23, have been
observed in acute lymphoid leukemias and especially in acute myeloid leukemias. We recently …

We have developed a panel of rabbit polyclonal antipeptide antibodies against the five
human somatostatin receptor subtypes (hSSTR1-5) and used them to analyze the pattern of …

The application of immunofluorescence technique with anti-insulin, anti-glucagon, anti-somatostatin,
and anti-pancreatic polypeptide (PP) antisera to sections of precisely sampled …

The childhood brain tumor, medulloblastoma, includes four subtypes with very different
prognoses. Here, we show that paracrine signals driven by mutant β-catenin in WNT-…

Somatostatin (SST) exerts direct antiproliferative effects in tumor cells, triggering either
growth arrest or apoptosis. The cellular actions of SST are transduced through a family of five …

A radioimmunoassay (RIA) for somatostatin has been developed using rabbit antiserum
raised against cyclic somatostatin conjugated to thyroglobulin, radioiodinated [Tyr 1 ]…

Selectively 1,2-glycerol carbonate was obtained from glycerol and carbon dioxide in
methanol using 1mol% n Bu 2 SnO (dibutyltin(IV)oxide, 1) as a catalyst. The reaction attained …
