Real-Time Signaling Assays Demonstrate Somatostatin Agonist Bias for Ion Channel Regulation in Somatotroph Tumor Cells

Acromegaly is a neuroendocrine disorder caused by excess secretion of GH by somatotroph tumor cells. It is often treated with somatostatin receptor (SSTR) 2 agonists, which suppress GH secretion. SOM230 is a somatostatin analogue that targets multiple SSTRs and was recently approved for patients wit...
