DOTA-[Tyr3]-Octreotide,Catalog Number: KS042011,CAS NO.: 177943-89-4 Octreotide is a peptide agonist for sst2, sst3 and sst5 somatostatin receptors. IC50/Kd values (nM) at cloned human somatostatin receptors are: 290 - 1140 (sst1), 0.4 - 2.1 (sst2), 4.4 - 34.5 (sst3), > 1000 (sst4), and 5.6 - 32 (sst5).

Octreotide,Catalog Number: KS042002,CAS NO.: 79517-01-4 Octreotide belongs to the group of synthetic cyclic octapeptides, known for its selectivity towards inhibiting the growth hormone. It binds to the somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2), and thereby prevents the secretion pathways of growth hormone. Hence it is used in the treatment of diseases caused by overproduction of growth hormone, such as acromegaly.
