Circulatory effects of gastrointestinal hormones and related peptides.
Circulatory effects of gastrointestinal hormones and related peptides are surveyed. Only experiments using low peptide dosages, non-extensive surgery and intravenous infusions give relevant data in this field. Glucagon, secretin, vasoactive intestinal peptide, gastrin, cholecystokinin, Substance P and Somatostatin are vasoactive within the splanchnic area, each fraction in a specific pattern.
