The further purification of a polypeptide having potent enterogastrone activity, without CCK—PZ effects, is described.
Abstract
1. The further purification of a polypeptide having potent enterogastrone activity, without CCK-PZ effects, is described.2. The material was inhibitory when doses of 1.0 mug/kg.hr were administered intravenously. Amino acid analyses demonstrated the absence of proline, a high content of glutamine and a preponderance of lysine over arginine. Tryptic degradation destroys the inhibitory effect of the polypeptide. Further studies must be performed before the physiological status of the polypeptide can be ascertained.

Degradation of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and truncated glucagon-like peptide 1 in vitro and in vivo by dipeptidyl peptidase IV

TL;DR: It is concluded that DPP IV may be a primary inactivating enzyme of both GIP and tGLP-1 in vivo and reports of circulating hormone levels should be reconsidered.

Cell and molecular biology of the incretin hormones glucagon-like peptide-I and glucose-dependent insulin releasing polypeptide

TL;DR: The connection between the gastrointestinal tract and the endocrine pancreas was shown in the 1960s when insulin became measurable in plasma and the insulin response to oral glucose and intravenous glucose, resulting in neaemia, was shown.

Preparation of highly active enterogastrone.

TL;DR: By using a 10% pure preparation of cholecystokinin–pancreozymin (CCK–PZ) a fraction was obtained which was inhibitory for H+ secretion, pepsin secretion, and motor activity in antral and fundic pou...
