Cortistatin 14, human, rat

* Please kindly note that our products are not to be used for therapeutic purposes and cannot be sold to patients.

Cortistatin 14 is an endogenous neuropeptide similar to somatostatin-14 in structure and function. It is mainly expressed in the cortex and hippocampus. It shows potency at all somatostatin receptors, but prevents somatostatin-14 binding. It binds to the growth hormone secretagog receptor (GHS-R1a). It displays sleep-modulating and neuronal depressant properties in vivo.

1.Cortistatin: a member of the somatostatin neuropeptide family with distinct physiological functions.

2.Protective effects of cortistatin (CST-14) against kainate-induced neurotoxicity in rat brain.
Braun H;Schulz S;Becker A;Schröder H;Höllt V Brain Res. 1998 Aug 24;803(1-2):54-60.
Cortistatin (CST-14) is a recently discovered endogenous peptide which shares similarity to somatostatin and binds to somatostatin receptors. In this study, we show that CST-14 exhibits anticonvulsive and neuroprotective effects in rats. Injection of rats with kainic acid (KA; 10 mg/kg; i.p.) generated a strong seizure activity which was attenuated by the i.c.v. application of 1 and 10 nmol CST-14 when given 10 min before KA. Moreover, 3 days after KA injection, a marked loss of neurons in cortex and hippocampus of rats was observed which was inhibited by pretreatment with CST-14. An immunohistochemical analysis using specific antibodies revealed that KA reduced immunoactive sst2A and sst3 somatostatin receptors in the hippocampus-an effect which was largely prevented by pretreatment with CST-14. Superfusion of hippocampal slices with CST-14 also reduced the stimulated release of 3H-d-aspartate. We conclude that CST-14 exerts neuroprotective effects by binding to somatostatin receptors which in turn leads to a reduced release of excitotoxic neurotransmitters.
3.Characterisation of the fish sst3 receptor, a member of the SRIF1 receptor family: atypical pharmacological features.
Siehler S;Zupanc GK;Seuwen K;Hoyer D Neuropharmacology. 1999 Mar;38(3):449-62.
The first cloned non-mammalian somatostatin (somatostatin release-inhibiting factor = SRIF) receptor previously obtained from the teleost fish Apteronotus albifrons and generically named somatostatin receptor 3 (fsst3), was stably expressed and characterised in Chinese hamster lung fibroblast (CCL39) cells. Radioligand binding studies were performed with four radioligands selective for SRIF receptors in CCL39 cells expressing the fsst3 receptors; [125I]LTT-SRIF28 ([Leu8, D-Trp22, 125I-Tyr25]-SRIF28), [125I]Tyr10-cortistatin, [125I]CGP 23996, and [125I]Tyr3-octreotide labelled the fsst3 receptor with high affinity (pKd values: 10.47, 10.87, 9.59 and 9.57) and in a saturable manner, but defined different Bmax values; 4500, 4000, 3400 and 1500 fmol/mg, respectively. The affinities of SRIF peptides and analogues determined for fsst3 receptors displayed the following rank order of potency: seglitide = SRIF25 > SRIF14 = SRIF28 > cortistatin 14 > BIM 23014 > RC160 = L361,301 = octreotide > or = BIM 23052 > or = L362,855 > CGP23996 > BIM 23056 > BIM 23030 = cycloantagonist > SRIF22. The pharmacological profiles determined with [125I]LTT-SRIF28, [125I]CGP 23996 and [125I]Tyr10-cortistatin correlated highly significantly (r = 0.
