    Snippet: Somatostatin (SST) is a peptide hormone produced in the hypothalamus, pancreas and intestine; it regulates both endocrine and exocrine gland function [17] , and downregulates cell proliferation in various tissues of many species including dogs [1, 3, 4, 10, 14] . Among the SST receptor (SSTR) superfamily, SSTR2 is the most dominant receptor, with the highest affinity to the ligand and the strongest antiproliferative effect [3] . In human breast c.....
    Document: Somatostatin (SST) is a peptide hormone produced in the hypothalamus, pancreas and intestine; it regulates both endocrine and exocrine gland function [17] , and downregulates cell proliferation in various tissues of many species including dogs [1, 3, 4, 10, 14] . Among the SST receptor (SSTR) superfamily, SSTR2 is the most dominant receptor, with the highest affinity to the ligand and the strongest antiproliferative effect [3] . In human breast cancer, tumor tissues that express SSTRs are less aggressive and more differentiated than tumors with little SSTRs expression, which are massive and highly malignant [5] . These findings lead to the speculation that SSTR signal transduction is closely related to the malignancy of human breast cancer.
