Rabbit Anti-SSTR2
Somatostatin receptor type 2, SRIF-1, SRIF1, SS-2-R, SS2-R, SS2R, SSR2_HUMAN, SST2, SSTR2
Somatostatin acts at many sites to inhibit the release of many hormones and other secretory proteins. The biologic effects of somatostatin are probably mediated by a family of G protein-coupled receptors that are expressed in a tissue- specific manner. SSTR2 is a member of the superfamily of receptors having seven transmembrane segments and is expressed in highest levels in cerebrum and kidney.
