The somatostatin receptor family is a member of the G-protein-coupled receptor superfamily and consists of 5 subtypes each differentially distributed throughout the CNS and periphery. These receptors bind with high affinity to the endogenous polypeptides somatostatin-14, somatostatin-28 and cortistatin, as well as a vast array of synthetic ligands.
Somatostatin. 1  the stomach (thus a paracrine effect) where it inhibits the release of gastrin and hydrochloric acid. 2  the duodenum where it inhibits the release of secretin and cholecystokinin. 3  the pancreas where it inhibits the release of glucagon. Many of them are also found in other tissues, especially the brain. 2  Many act in a paracrine manner as well as being carried in the blood as true hormones. 3  Their importance to health is uncertain as no known deficiency disorders have been found for any of them.
