The effects of hepatic transit on concentrations of synthetic cyclic (ovine) somatostatin and of highly purified (porcine) vasoactive intestinal peptide were studied in five conscious dogs prepared with indwelling portal catheters. The peptides were infused via peripheral vein catheters or the portal catheters for 40 minutes at actual integrated doses of 2.8 pmol/kg/min for vasoactive intestina...

The dietary lectin phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) induces gut growth and precocious maturation in suckling rats after mucosal binding. The present study investigated the dose range in which PHA provokes gut maturation and if it coincided with immune activation. Suckling rats, aged 14 d, were orogastrically fed a single increasing dose of PHA: 0 (control), 2, 10, 50 or 250 microg/g body weight (BW) i...
