Description

Somatostatin 34 is a synthetic peptide analog of the endogenous hormone somatostatin, identified by CAS NO 132894-19-0. This compound is valued for its potent and selective inhibitory effects on the secretion of growth hormone, insulin, and glucagon. It is a critical research tool and active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) for scientists and manufacturers in the fields of endocrinology, oncology, and metabolic disorder research.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Research & Development: Used as a reference standard and active compound in preclinical studies investigating hormone regulation and receptor binding.
• Endocrinology Studies: Essential for in vitro and in vivo research on the inhibition of growth hormone (GH), insulin, and glucagon secretion.
• Oncology Research: Investigated for its potential anti-proliferative effects on certain tumor cells that express somatostatin receptors.
• Metabolic Disorder Models: Employed in animal models to study conditions like acromegaly and diabetic hyperglycemia.
• Peptide Chemistry & Synthesis: Serves as a building block or intermediate for the synthesis of more complex peptide analogs and conjugates.
• Biochemical Assay Development: Used as a ligand in competitive binding assays (RIA, ELISA) to characterize somatostatin receptors.
