General description
SSTR2 (Somatostatin receptor 2) is a novel multi-domain protein belonging to a family of cytoskeletal anchoring proteins. It consists of six N-terminal ankyrin repeats followed by SH3 and PDZ domains, several proline-rich regions, and a C-terminal sterile α region.
Immunogen
Somatostatin receptor type 2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)
Application
Anti-SSTR2 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions
SSTR2 (Somatostatin receptor 2) is a regulatory peptide widely distributed in tissues. It is involved in several cellular functions including, neuroendocrine and exocrine secretions, and proliferation. In neuronal tissues, it interacts with the inhibitory G-proteins in both the chambers, presynaptic and postsynaptic, to control the synaptic responses. It has the ability to control the proliferation of both normal and neoplastic cells. It is abundantly present at the plasma membrane of several tumorous cells such as pancreatic, gastrointestinal, breast carcinoma, neuroblastomas etc. Thus, SSTR2 has been proved as a potential prognostic marker for certain malignancies.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Somatostatin analogs (SSA) are well-established antisecretory drugs in functionally active neuroendocrine tumors (NET). Two placebo-controlled trials have recently demonstrated significant improvement of progression-free survival under SSA treatment. Furthermore, somatostatin receptor (SSTR) overexpression in NET has also been utilized for diagnostic

Small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) is an aggressive malignancy characterised by an early relapse, a tendency towards drug resistance, and a high incidence of metastasis. SCLC cells are of neuroendocrine origin and express high levels of somatostatin receptors; therefore, future treatment

The confirmation of target expression in tissues is a prerequisite for molecular-targeted therapy. However, difficulties are sometimes associated with the production of appropriate antibodies against receptors. We herein developed a ligand derivative dye for the staining of receptors.

We recently reported that immature porcine Leydig cells express both somatostatin (SRIF) and SRIF receptor type-2 (sst-2) transcripts. The present study was therefore undertaken to assess whether SRIF might exert autocrine actions on these cells through sst2A receptor, one of
