Signaling Can Be Uncoupled from Imaging of the Somatostatin Receptor Type 2

Endogenous and exogenous somatostatin receptors are commonly targeted for imaging using radiopharmaceutical analogues of somatostatin. Ligand binding activates receptor-mediated signaling. We assessed whether somatostatin receptor type 2A (SSTR2A) imaging can be uncoupled from signal transduction. I...
