Somatostatin
Overview
Somatostatin (growth hormone-inhibiting hormone, GHIH) is a cyclic peptide hormone existing in two active isoforms: 14 and 28 amino acids. It broadly inhibits the secretion of multiple hormones including somatotropin, insulin, glucagon, thyrotropin, and gastrin. QYAOBIO provides a comprehensive library of somatostatin peptides, fragments, and receptor-subtype-selective analogs.
