Abstract:
:In order to identify proguanylin-secreting cells, we have raised an antiserum against the synthetic fragment of human proguanylin (1-15) and have examined the proguanylin-positive cells in the human and rat gastrointestinal tract by immunohistochemical methods. Numerous proguanylin (1-15)-immunoreactive cells were found in the gastrointestinal tract. They were either pyramidal or spindle shaped in the stomach. Spindle-shaped cells, frequently possessing long slender processes, were located at the base of the pyloric epithelium and did not extend to the lumen. In the duodenum and jejunum, these cells were mostly pyramidal in shape and often had a slender process towards the lumen. The immunostaining was completely blocked by the human proguanylin (1-15) fragment. Paneth and goblet cells were negative against this antiserum. The number of serotonin-positive cells was much larger than that of proguanylin-positive cells in all the segments tested. The number of proguanylin-positive cells decreased from the jejunum to the ileum and very few cells were observed in the colon. In contrast to serotonin-positive cells, most somatostatin-positive cells were also positive for proguanylin. Thus, proguanylin (1-15) or its related protein appears to coexist with somatostatin in intestinal endocrine D cells which may be a source of circulating proguanylin. Proguanylin, like somatostatin, may also regulate intestinal function as a local regulator.
