Effect of secretin on serum trypsin-like immunoreactivity in alcoholics.
Serum trypsin-like immunoreactivity (TLI) was studied with a newly developed radioimmunoassay in human subjects. The intravenous administration of secretin was followed by an evident increase of serum TLI significantly greater in alcoholics as compared to controls.
