Cholecystokinin-like peptides in avian brain and gut

  • Published:
Experientia Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Extracts of turkey brain and jejunum contain a factor closely resembling the COOH-terminal octapeptide of porcine cholecystokinin (CCK). Turkey antral extracts contain factors distinguishable in immunochemical and gel filtration properties from the mammalian forms of gastrin and CCK. *** DIRECT SUPPORT *** A2025089 00007
