[125I-Tyr]Somatostatin [( 125I-Tyr]SRIH) binding was found in 11 GH-secreting pituitary adenomas [Kd = 0.46 +/- 0.15 (+/- SE) nM; maximum binding, 165 +/- 35 fmol/mg protein). This binding was specific, since it was displaced by somatostatin-14 (SRIH-14), N-Tyr-SRIH-14, and SRIH-28. In contrast, a number of peptides and drugs not structurally related to SRIH, such as bombesin, dopamine, LHRH, met-enkephalin, naloxone, neurotensin, secretin, substance P, TRH, or vasoactive intestinal peptide, did not affect [125I-Tyr]SRIH binding. [125I-Tyr]SRIH specific binding also was found in PRL-secreting pituitary adenomas. The kinetic characteristics of the specific binding were similar to those of GH-secreting adenomas. However, maximal binding was one quarter that of GH-secreting adenomas (37 +/- 9 fmol/mg protein). In contrast, nonsecreting (chromophobe) tumors were devoid of any specific binding. Finally, in acromegaly, the density of [125I-Tyr]SRIH-binding sites in the adenomas was negatively correlated with plasma GH levels before surgery (r = -0.80). This suggests that somatostatinergic control is involved in GH secretion in acromegalic patients.

D010911 Pituitary Neoplasms Neoplasms which arise from or metastasize to the PITUITARY GLAND. The majority of pituitary neoplasms are adenomas, which are divided into non-secreting and secreting forms. Hormone producing forms are further classified by the type of hormone they secrete. Pituitary adenomas may also be characterized by their staining properties (see ADENOMA, BASOPHIL; ADENOMA, ACIDOPHIL; and ADENOMA, CHROMOPHOBE). Pituitary tumors may compress adjacent structures, including the HYPOTHALAMUS, several CRANIAL NERVES, and the OPTIC CHIASM. Chiasmal compression may result in bitemporal HEMIANOPSIA.

D011388 Prolactin A lactogenic hormone secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR). It is a polypeptide of approximately 23 kD. Besides its major action on lactation, in some species prolactin exerts effects on reproduction, maternal behavior, fat metabolism, immunomodulation and osmoregulation. Prolactin receptors are present in the mammary gland, hypothalamus, liver, ovary, testis, and prostate.

D011956 Receptors, Cell Surface Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.

D000172 Acromegaly A condition caused by prolonged exposure to excessive HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE in adults. It is characterized by bony enlargement of the FACE; lower jaw (PROGNATHISM); hands; FEET; HEAD; and THORAX. The most common etiology is a GROWTH HORMONE-SECRETING PITUITARY ADENOMA.

D013004 Somatostatin A 14-amino acid peptide named for its ability to inhibit pituitary GROWTH HORMONE release, also called somatotropin release-inhibiting factor. It is expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems, the gut, and other organs. SRIF can also inhibit the release of THYROID-STIMULATING HORMONE; PROLACTIN; INSULIN; and GLUCAGON besides acting as a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator. In a number of species including humans, there is an additional form of somatostatin, SRIF-28 with a 14-amino acid extension at the N-terminal.

D013006 Growth Hormone A polypeptide that is secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR).
