Scientific Data Images for Human Somatostatin Antibody

Detection of Somatostatin in Human Hypothalamus.

Somatostatin was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human hypothalamus using Rabbit Anti-Human Somatostatin Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB11635) at 3 µg/ml for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Rabbit IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC003). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using VisUCyte Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # VCTS021). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to the cytoplasm.

Background: Somatostatin

Somatostatin (SST), also known as SMST, is a 116 amino acid (aa) peptide hormone protein and shares 96% aa identity with mouse and rat SST. It exists as a preproprotein that is cleaved into a proprotein form and then subsequently into 14 aa and 28 aa active peptide forms. SST is secreted by many tissues throughout the body and inhibits the secretion of many other hormones. Some of its major roles are inhibiting growth hormone secretion by the pituitary gland, insulin and glucagon secretion in pancreatic islets, and secretion of gastrointestinal tract hormones such as gastrin. Additionally, SST has been shown to have neuromodulatory activity.
