" /> Somatostatin Receptor Type 5 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Somatostatin Receptor Type 5;

NCIt synonyms : SSTR5; Somatostatin Receptor-5; Somatostatin Receptor Subtype 5; SS-5-R; Somatostatin Receptor 5; SS5-R; SS5R;

NCIt definition : Somatostatin receptor type 5 (364 aa, 39 kDa) is encoded by the human SSTR5 gene. This protein is involved in somatostatin-dependent G protein-coupled receptor signaling.;

NCIt note : Somatostatin receptor (SSTR) 5 and D2R GPCRs interact to create a novel receptor with enhanced activity; either ligand promotes heterodimerization. SSTR5 increases DNA synthesis, whereas SSTR2 inhibits DNA synthesis and cell proliferation. SSTR2 appears to antagonize SSTR5, and vice versa, suggesting a tissue-specific function and interaction between these receptors. SSTR5 is expressed in adult pituitary gland, heart, small intestine, adrenal gland, cerebellum and fetal hypothalamus.(OMIM 182455 and SWISS-PROT P35346);
