Gut Regulatory Peptides in Young Cattle and Sheep

Summary This review summarizes recent advances on blood plasma patterns, receptors, secondary messengers and metabolism of gut regulatory peptides (i.e. gastrin, secretin, somatostatin, cholecystokinin, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, pancreatic polypeptide, gastric inhibitory polypeptide, motili...

Description
Summary:Summary This review summarizes recent advances on blood plasma patterns, receptors, secondary messengers and metabolism of gut regulatory peptides (i.e. gastrin, secretin, somatostatin, cholecystokinin, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, pancreatic polypeptide, gastric inhibitory polypeptide, motilin), in young ruminants during fetal and perinatal stages, during the preruminant stage and at weaning. It also deals with their role in the digestive tract function and postabsorptive changes. Some pathological situations in young ruminants are considered. Recent molecular aspects of digestive enzyme synthesis are also reported.
