Amino Acid Sequence

Phe-Cys-Phe-Trp-Lys-Thr-Cys-Thr-ol [Disulfide bridge: 2-7]

General description

Octreotide is a somatostatin analogue with D-Phe-Cys-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-ThrCys-Thr-OH amino acid sequence.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Octreotide is three times more potent than the native hormone in inhibiting the secretion of growth hormone glucagon and insulin in vivo. Octreotide regulates serum prolactin levels and resolves galactorrhea or (secondary) amenorrhea in acromegaly patients. Hence, this peptide can be considered as a potent therapeutic for acromegaly treatment.
Somatostatin analog that is 3-times more potent than the native hormone in inhibiting the secretion of growth hormone.
