Description

Product Description

Octreotide Acetate is a synthetic octapeptide analog of natural somatostatin, developed to provide prolonged biological stability and enhanced receptor selectivity. Compared with native somatostatin, octreotide demonstrates a significantly longer half-life and improved resistance to enzymatic degradation, making it a widely studied peptide in endocrinology, oncology, and pharmacological research.

Structurally, Octreotide Acetate retains the key pharmacophoric residues responsible for somatostatin receptor binding while eliminating unstable peptide segments. This modification allows octreotide to selectively interact with somatostatin receptor subtypes, particularly SSTR2 and SSTR5, which are abundantly expressed in neuroendocrine tissues and tumor models.

In research environments, Octreotide Acetate is extensively applied in studies related to hormone secretion regulation, tumor growth inhibition, receptor signaling pathways, and peptide drug delivery systems. Its ability to modulate growth hormone, insulin, glucagon, and gastrointestinal peptide secretion has positioned it as a reference compound in endocrine and metabolic investigations.

Octreotide Acetate is also an important tool in receptor binding assays, radiolabeling studies, and imaging agent development, particularly in neuroendocrine tumor research models. Its stable peptide structure supports reliable formulation, storage, and experimental reproducibility.

For formulation science, octreotide acetate is widely used to evaluate lyophilization behavior, excipient compatibility, peptide stability, and sustained-release delivery technologies. These studies contribute to the optimization of long-acting peptide dosage forms and injectable delivery systems.

To ensure consistency in experimental results, Octreotide Acetate is supplied with strict batch control, high purity standards, and comprehensive analytical validation.
