Zusammenfassung:Immunoreactive cholecystokinin (iCCK), vasoactive intestinal peptide (iVIP) and secretin (iSEC) were determined in the brain and various gut regions in the developing rat between 3 and 28 days after birth and in the adult. From the different patterns observed with these three peptides, it is concluded that in rat neural tissues, peptide concentrations (iCCK in brain, iVIP in brain and gut) increase continuously until about 4 weeks. Concentrations in mucosal tissues (iSEC in gut) are equal to or higher than adult values 3 days after birth. Gut iCCK (found both in neuronal and mucosal tissues) peaks at about 2 weeks, presumably due to concentrations increasing in the former and decreasing in the latter tissues.
