Abstract excerpt
The expression of sst2A and sst2B somatostatin (SRIH) receptor splice variants was examined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in rat brain and pituitary. Two sets of primers chosen to recognize either both sst2A and sst2B or only the sst2B transcript yielded bands of the size predicted from the...
