Growth hormone receptor expression in the rat gastrointestinal tract.

abstract：:Neuromedin-N (NN) and neurotensin (NT) were shown recently to be encoded in the same precursor molecule. Colocalization and corelease of ileal NT and NN have not yet been demonstrated and were investigated in the rat using antisera that separately recognized intact NT and NN in ileal extracts.
