Gut hormones
1978
Bloom, S.R.
The nature of the gut endocrine system and two techniques used to measure hormone concentrations in circulation and localize the cell producing the hormone are briefly described. Eight peptide hormones from the gastrointestinal tract which are generally agreed to have physiological significance are gastrin, pancreatic polypeptide, secretin, cholecystokinin, motilin, gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP), neurotensin, and enteroglucagon. The major tissue of origin of each hormone is identified. The proposed physiological roles are explained.
