Somatostatin exists in two biologically active forms, somatostatin 14 and somatostatin 28, generated by alternative processing of a larger precursor. These peptides act as inhibitory hormones and neurotransmitters, regulating secretion of growth hormone, insulin, glucagon, and numerous gastrointestinal peptides. Somatostatin achieves its effects by binding to somatostatin receptors, a family of G protein coupled receptors expressed across many tissues.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSST antibody is widely used in endocrinology, neuroscience, and cancer research. In the pituitary gland, somatostatin regulates growth hormone release. In the pancreas, it modulates insulin and glucagon secretion. In the gastrointestinal tract, it suppresses acid secretion and motility. By detecting somatostatin, researchers can evaluate how this peptide coordinates endocrine and paracrine regulation across multiple organ systems.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Immunohistochemistry maps somatostatin producing cells in pancreatic islets, hypothalamus, and gastrointestinal mucosa. Immunofluorescence reveals somatostatin localization in neurons and endocrine cells, while ELISA enables quantitative analysis in serum or tissue extracts. These techniques make SST antibody a versatile tool for endocrine and neurological studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSomatostatin has clinical relevance as both a diagnostic marker and therapeutic target. Elevated somatostatin expression is observed in neuroendocrine tumors, while synthetic analogs such as octreotide are used to treat acromegaly, carcinoid syndrome, and other hormone secreting tumors. By applying SST antibody, scientists can investigate peptide hormone regulation, tumor biology, and therapeutic strategies targeting somatostatin pathways.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSST antibody from\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnecting protein-level changes to phenotype using orthogonal readouts (genetic perturbation, transcriptomics, imaging).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsidering isoforms and post-translational regulation when interpreting protein-level changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComparing results across species and model systems with matched controls.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImmunohistochemistry:\u003c\/strong\u003e map target signal in tissue context and compare regions\/phenotypes.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterpret changes in signal alongside appropriate controls and, when relevant, in parallel with total-protein or pathway readouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal can reflect expression level, isoform composition, and post-translational state; interpret results in the context of your model system and stimuli.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecies differences and sample matrices can influence epitope recognition; prioritize matched controls and orthogonal confirmation when feasible.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAntibody notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Monoclonal antibodies provide a defined epitope recognition profile that can support consistent comparisons across experiments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProt search — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb?query=SST - NCBI Gene search — NCBI — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=SST - Ensembl search — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=SST - Human Protein Atlas search — HPA — https:\/\/www.proteinatlas.org\/search\/SST - PubMed (review) — NLM — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=SST+review --\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"Rabbit IgG in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol, 0.4-0.5mg\/ml BSA \/ 100 ul","offer_id":53047295050093,"sku":"FY12635","price":449.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_12358b59-972d-41fd-80d5-31afbc4ade29.jpg?v=1782237026","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/sst-antibody-somatostatin-bha17135538","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
