title: Comparison of the actions of bombesin, gastrin-releasing peptide-27, neuromedin B, and gastrin-releasing peptide-10 in causing release of gastrin and gastric inhibitory peptide in rats.
abstract: The objective of this study was to compare the gastrin- and gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP)-releasing actions of bombesin, gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP)-27, neuromedin B, and GRP-10 in rats. Both bombesin and GRP-27 are potent stimulants of gastrin and GIP release, whereas neuromedin B and GRP-10 are less effective, on a molar basis.
