Cholecystokinin-like peptides in avian brain and gut.
Extracts of turkey brain and jejunum contain a factor closely resembling the COOH-terminal octapeptide of porcine cholecystokinin (CCK). Turkey antral extracts contain factors distinguishable in immunochemical and gel filtration properties from the mammalian forms of gastrin and CCK.
