Diurnal profile of plasma somatostatin in man. 1984

P G Burhol, and R Jorde, and T G Jenssen, and I Lygren, and J Florholmen

Plasma somatostatin was followed for 24 h in 6 healthy young males having 4 regular meals with water allowed freely, and performing their normal daily activities. Plasma somatostatin rose significantly after each meal, it returned towards the basal level before the next meal, and it rose higher and stayed significantly elevated longer after the evening meal than after any of the other meals. A possible physiological circadian rhythm of plasma somatostatin is discussed.

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.
