  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In anesthetized rats, lanreotide microinjection caused dose-dependent sympathoinhibition that an sst2 antagonist blocked.

    In plain wordsIn rats under anesthesia, lanreotide reduced sympathetic activity with increasing doses, and an sst2 antagonist blocked this effect.

    Summary
    Bilateral microinjection into the RVLM of either somatostatin or the receptor-selective agonist lanreotide evoked dramatic, dose-dependent sympathoinhibition, hypotension, and bradycardia that were blocked by the sst2 receptor antagonist BIM-23627 in anesthetized rats.

  3. 03AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In anesthetized rats, lanreotide microinjection caused dose-dependent bradycardia that an sst2 antagonist blocked.

    In plain wordsIn rats under anesthesia, lanreotide slowed heart rate with increasing doses, and an sst2 antagonist blocked this effect.
