Pharmacological Characterization of Veldoreotide as a Somatostatin Receptor 4 Agonist
Veldoreotide, a somatostatin analogue, binds to the somatostatin receptors (SSTR) 2, 4, and 5. The current aim was to assess its pharmacological activity as an SSTR4 agonist. G-protein signaling was assessed using a fluorescence-based membrane potential assay in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) c...
