[Effects of peptide YY on functions of the gastrointestinal tract].
The present report gives a review about the localization, release and gastrointestinal actions of peptide YY in different animal species and in humans. Possible mechanisms of action, the physiological and pathophysiological significance of peptide YY and the role of peptide YY 3-36 are discussed. Finally, unanswered questions are specified.
