There is evidence that suggests a reciprocal functional link between the serotonergic and the somatostatinergic system in the rat frontoparietal cortex. However, to date, the role of endogenous 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) on the regulation of the somatostatin (SS) receptor-adenylyl cyclase (AC) system remains unclear. In the present study, the administration of fluoxetine (10 mg/kg i.p.), a 5-hydroxytryptamine uptake inhibitor in a single dose or administered daily for 14 days increased the number of specific [125I]Tyr11-SS receptors, with no change in the receptor affinity, in rat frontoparietal cortical membranes. However, the capacity of SS to inhibit forskolin (FK)-stimulated AC activity in these membranes was lower than in the control groups. The ability of the stable GTP analogue 5'-guanylylimidodiphosphate (Gpp(NH)p) to inhibit FK-stimulated AC activity in frontoparietal cortical membranes was also decreased in rats acutely and chronically treated with fluoxetine. p-Chloroamphetamine (5 mg/kg i.p.), which leads to a lasting reduction of 5-hydroxytryptamine innervation, administered on days 1, 3 and 5 and the rats sacrificed 1 or 3 weeks after the first injection, decreased the number of SS receptors without changing the receptor affinity. In this experimental group, SS also caused a significantly lower inhibition of FK-stimulated AC activity. p-Chloroamphetamine had no effect on the ability of Gpp(NH)p to inhibit FK-stimulated AC activity in frontoparietal cortical membranes at all the time periods studied. The present results suggest that under normal circumstances some SS receptors are under a tonic stimulatory control through the serotonergic system.

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.

D017481 Receptors, Somatostatin Cell surface proteins that bind somatostatin and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behavior of cells. Somatostatin is a hypothalamic hormone, a pancreatic hormone, and a central and peripheral neurotransmitter. Activated somatostatin receptors on pituitary cells inhibit the release of growth hormone; those on endocrine and gastrointestinal cells regulate the absorption and utilization of nutrients; and those on neurons mediate somatostatin's role as a neurotransmitter.
