Abstract
In the gastric antrum of pigs aged between 2 and 171 days, G17 account -ed for most of the gastrin-like immunoreactivity and G34 for up to 2% . G34 increased progressively from a mean of 7% in the duodenal bulb t o 39% in the most distal segment of the duodenum. In both the proximal duodenum and for the whole duodenum, the percentage of G34 correlated negatively with the tissue gastrin content. The degree of sulphation was similar in the antrum and proximal duodenum (mean 67% G17 non-sulp hated).
