Upon investigation of pig intestinal peptides for effects on the release of endocrine hormones from the isolated perfused rat pancreas, we reported earlier that glucose-stimulated insulin release was inhibited by PEC-60, a peptide with marked sequence similarity to PSTI (pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor). Continuing this study we found a polypeptide, which inhibited glucose-induced insulin release but enhanced glucose-induced somatostatin secretion. Determination of the amino acid sequence of this polypeptide revealed that it is identical to that of PSTI. Thus, PSTI modulates islet hormone release.
在研究猪肠肽对离体灌注大鼠胰腺内分泌激素释放的影响时,我们先前报道,与胰腺分泌性胰蛋白酶抑制剂(PSTI)具有显著序列相似性的肽PEC - 60可抑制葡萄糖刺激的胰岛素释放。继续这项研究,我们发现了一种多肽,它抑制葡萄糖诱导的胰岛素释放,但增强葡萄糖诱导的生长抑素分泌。对该多肽氨基酸序列的测定表明,它与PSTI的序列相同。因此,PSTI可调节胰岛激素的释放。
