Abstract
A factor with potent activity in the regulation of mammalian gastrointestinal motor function has been isolated from the bovine posterior pituitary gland by a process allowing minimal dissociation of neurophysin-bound complexes and the separation of free unbound peptides. This substance alters the frequency, amplitude, rhythm, and duration of peristaltic contraction.Keywords
