Abstract
Summary 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.Keywords
