  • Title: ACTH-like immunoreactivity in the gastrin cell. Independent changes in gastrin and ACTH-like immunoreactivity during ontogeny.
    Author: Larsson LI.
    Journal: Histochemistry; 1978 Jul 12; 56(3-4):245-51. PubMed ID: 211100.
    Abstract:
    Rat antral gastrin cells have been shown to contain ACTH-like immunoreactivity. Studies on the ontogeny of the antral gastrin cells reveal that these cells start to store gastrin before they contain detectable quantities of ACTH-like immunoreactivity. At no stage studied were duodenal gastrin cells found to contain ACTH-like peptides. The data indicate that the G cells synthetizes and/or releases the two hormonal peptides independently.
