anti-secretory

Pasireotide (SOM230) acetate is a long-acting cyclohexapeptide growth hormone inhibitory hormone analog with antisecretory, antiproliferative, and proapoptotic activities.Pasireotide (SOM230) acetate inhibits the secretion of GH, IGF-I, and ACTH, and can be used in the study of acromegaly and Cushing's disease. Pasireotide (SOM230) acetate also enhances the agonist activity of growth inhibitory receptors, with pKi of 8.2, 9.0, 9.1, <7.0 and 9.9 for sst1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, respectively.

FIZZ-1 (32-51) (mouse), a cysteine-rich secretory protein, is primarily expressed in macrophages, bronchial epithelial, and type II alveolar epithelial cells (AEC) during allergic airway inflammation. It also demonstrates an anti-apoptotic effect on lung fibroblasts, suggesting its potential utility in allergic pneumonia research [1] [2].
