    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxy terminus of human somatostatin protein.

    Background

    Somatostatin (SST) is a small neuropeptide, originally identified to inhibit the release of growth hormone from the hypothalamus (1). SST is expressed throughout the brain. In the cortex, SST is expressed in a subset of GABAergic neurons and is known as a protein marker of inhibitory interneurons (2). Besides the central nervous system (CNS), SST is expressed in various organs, such as the pancreas, gut, and immune cells (2,3). There are two types of biologically active SST isoforms that vary in constituent amino acids: SST-14 and SST-28. Generally, SST-14 is more predominant in the CNS, whereas SST-28 is more abundant in peripheral body organs (3). Reduction of SST expression has been proposed as a hallmark of various pathological conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, schizophrenia, epilepsy, and depression (4,5,6,7).
