title: [Demonstration of delta sleep inducing peptide in a strain of human small cell lung cancer by immunocytology].
abstract: The "delta sleep inducing peptide" (DSIP) is a regulatory peptide localized in the brain, the hypophysis and some endocrine cells of the gut. The present immunological study, performed with a monoclonal antibody to DSIP, provides evidence for the presence of DSIP-like immunoreactivity (DSIP-LI) in a strain of small cell carcinoma. The specificity of the immunoreaction was assessed by the tests using heterologous antigen known to be secreted by these cells. The DSIP could play a role in the course of this disease.
