Function
May enhance low-glucose-induced glucagon release by pancreatic alpha cells. This effect may be mediated by binding to GPR107 and PKA activation. May regulate cardiac contractile function.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Secreted
Tissue Specificity: In the pancreas, somatostatin is expressed in delta cells of the islets of Langerhans. In the stomach, it is expressed in parietal cells of oxyntic mucosa and in the small intestine, it is found in the villus (at protein level). Neuronostatin is expressed in the pancreas in delta cells of the islets of Langerhans, as well as in the stomach, in parietal cells of oxyntic mucosa and in the small intestine, in the villus (at protein level)
