Autonomous production of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) from pituitary corticotroph adenomas is the primary cause of Cushing's disease. Somatostatin receptor, a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), types 2 (SSTR2) and 5 (SSTR5) mRNA expression is greater than that of other SSTR subtypes in human corticotroph adenomas. Further, the multiligand SOM230 shows potent effects in decreasing ACTH plasma levels and urinary free cortisol levels in patients with Cushing's disease. We previously showed that both Sstr2 and Sstr5 mRNA levels were u
