Descriptor células secretoras de somatostatina
Entry term(s) células delta
células pancreáticas delta
Scope note: Células endocrinas que se encuentran a lo largo del TRACTO GASTROINTESTINAL y en los islotes del PÁNCREAS. Las células D secretan SOMATOSTATINA, que actúa tanto de manera endocrina como paracrina. La somatostatina actúa sobre diversos tejidos como la HIPÓFISIS, el tracto gastrointestinal, el páncreas y el RIÑÓN, inhibiendo la liberación de hormonas tales como la HORMONA DEL CRECIMIENTO, la GASTRINA, la INSULINA y la RENINA.

Scope note: Endocrine cells found throughout the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT and in islets of the PANCREAS. D cells secrete SOMATOSTATIN that acts in both an endocrine and paracrine manner. Somatostatin acts on a variety of tissues including the PITUITARY GLAND; gastrointestinal tract; pancreas; and KIDNEY by inhibiting the release of hormones, such as GROWTH HORMONE; GASTRIN; INSULIN; and RENIN.
