“…Oral administration indisputably offers therapeutic advantages, but its use is controversial, mainly because of the known enzymatic lability of peptides. Our interest was focused on the intestinal absorption of octreotide, which is stabilised against proteolytic degradation in GI fluids (Pless et al, 1986).…”

“…The somatostatin analogue octreotide has been in clinical use for treatment of NE tumours since the early 1980s. Somatostatin analogues are synthetic somatostatin octapeptide derivatives with structure and activities similar to those of the native hormone somatostatin, containing 14 amino acids, but with a significantly longer half-life and duration of action than the native substance (24).…”

“…In the present study pertussis toxin alone had a small but significant effect on the basal intracellular levels of cyclic AMP but did not change the response to PGE2 (Figure 4b). As a control for the system we used SMS 201-995, a somatostatin analogue (Pless et al, 1986). Somatostatin induces multiple biological actions by interacting with a family of specific receptors, referred to as SSTRI-SSTR5 (Law et al, 1995), and all five receptors can be coupled to Gi, protein and inhibit adenylate cyclase (Viollet et al, 1995).…”
