Acid extracts of Tetrahymena pyriformis, a ciliated protozoan grown in defined medium revealed the presence of materials with salmon-type calcitonin immunoactivity. These findings add support to earlier reports of the presence of materials closely resembling vertebrate peptide hormones in unicellular microbes.
在限定培养基中生长的纤毛原生动物梨形四膜虫的酸提取物显示存在具有鲑鱼型降钙素免疫活性的物质。这些发现为早期关于单细胞微生物中存在与脊椎动物肽激素非常相似的物质的报道提供了支持。
