title: The intestinal mucosa preferentially releases somatostatin-28 in pigs.
abstract: We studied the molecular forms of somatostatin-like immunoreactivity (SLI), newly released from isolated perfused preparations of the porcine antrum, stomach, pancreas and upper small intestine: Perfusion effluents were concentrated by Sep-Pak C-18 adsorption, eluted with ethanol, dessicated, and subjected to gel filtration with subsequent radioimmunoassays for somatostatin-14 and N-terminal somatostatin-28 immunoreactivity. All the SLI newly released from the stomach and antrum eluted at the position of somatostatin-14, and such was also the case for more than 95% of the SLI newly released from the pancreas, while 68 -/+ 7% and 75 -/+ 8% of the SLI newly released from the isolated perfused jejunum and ileum, respectively, corresponded to somatostatin-28. By reverse phase HPLC the identity of these peptides with synhetic somatostatin-14 and -28 was established.
