Recent developments in the chemistry of gastrointestinal peptides

European Journal of Clinical Investigation
V Mutt

Abstract

Work carried out in different laboratories has shown that the peptide pattern of the intestinal tissue is very complex and that some of the peptides are identical to those found in the central nervous system. The best studied of the peptides are of a hormonal nature, but recently evidence has been obtained that others may primarily act as antibiotics. In addition, peptides have been isolated that are fragments of some well-known proteins that have not been viewed as being prohormones. Whether the latter peptides only represent transient degradation products of the proteins or whether, at least some of them, have a physiologically meaningful selective function of their own is not yet clear.
