Raw Lanreotide powder (108736-35-2)

Raw lanreotide powder powder is a somatostatin analogue that suppresses GH/IGF-I hypersecretion in acromegaly patients and used to manage neuroendocrine tumours.

Lanreotide powder is a a synthetic cyclic octapeptide analogue of somatostatin. Raw Lanreotide powder inhibits the secretion of growth hormone (GH) by binding to pituitary somatostatin receptors, and may inhibit the release of various other hormones, including thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and the gastroenteropancreatic hormones insulin, glucagon and gastrin. This agent also decreases circulating total and free insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-I). Lanreotide powder exhibits a high binding affinity for somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR-2) and a lesser binding affinity for SSTR-5. However, compared to octreotide, this agent is less potent in inhibiting the release of growth hormone from the pituitary gland. Check for active clinical trials or closed clinical trials using this agent. (NCI Thesaurus)
