Abstract
The gastrointestinal hormones comprise a group of peptides produced by endocrine cells that line the stomach and intestine. The pancreatic hormones insulin, glucagon, and pancreatic polypeptide are often included in this category. Several other peptides are produced in the gut exclusively by nerves or by both nerves and endocrine-type cells. These endocrine peptides and neuropeptides exert a wide variety of biologic effects on target organs in the gastrointestinal tract. They serve as endocrine and/or neurocrine regulators of many physiologic functions. They also produce clinical disease, most dramatically when there is massive overproduction by a hormone-secreting tumor.
