Abstract

In recent years, there has been a virtual explosion in discovery of various hormonal peptides isolated from the gastrointestinal tract and the pancreas. The truly remarkable development in digestive endocrinology could be attributed 1. to the successful isolation of what are generally regarded as the major gastrointestinal hormones (gastrin, CCK and secretin) — and since then, many peptides whose hormonal status has not yet been clarified and 2. to the application of highly sensitive methods of quantitative measurement of circulating hormones by radioimmunoassay and their tissue distribution by innunocytochenistry.
