somatostatin receptor 4; SS4R; brain-specific somatostatin receptor (SSTR4)

Function: - receptor for somatostatin-14 - activity mediated by G proteins which inhibit adenylyl cyclase - functionally coupled to a) inhibition of adenylate cyclase b) activation of arachidonate release & mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascade - mediates antiproliferative action of somatostatin in tumor cells Structure: belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 1 family Compartment: cell membrane Expression: - specifically expressed in fetal & adult brain, lung tissue, stomach - lesser expression in kidney, pituitary & adrenals
