Somatostatin occurs mainly in the gastrointestinal tract, in the [[hypothalamus]] and in the nerve endings. It inhibits the secretion of [[gastrin]], [[gastric acid]] and [[pepsin]], slows down the [[endocrine]] and [[exocrine]] [[secretion]] of the pancreas and reduces the secretion of growth hormone (hence the name). Figuratively speaking, somatostatin prevents both hypo- and hyperglycaemia under physiological conditions.
