This article discusses experiments demonstrating that the gastrointestinal hormones, gastrin, secretin, and CCK (cholecystokinin), stimulate the growth of the exocrine pancreas. Exogenous gastrin, secretin, and CCK increase pancreatic weight DNA, RNA and protein content of the rat pancreas. Antrecto

## Abstract Various hormones and peptides were added to rat stomach cancer cells growing __in vitro__ in a serumβfree medium and the cell number was determined by a spectroβphotometric method. Five gastroβenteroβpancreatic hormones or related peptides (tetragastrin, glucagon, secretin, cholecystoki
## BACKGROUND. The most common site of metastases in prostate cancer is the skeleton and occurs in 70-80% of patients with prostate carcinoma. Calciotrophic peptides are important in the growth and development of normal bone matrix. METHODS. Three human prostate carcinoma cells lines, DU-145, PC-3
The effects of ovine prolactin (oPRL) and ovine (01 or porcine (p) growth hormone (GH) on growth of anuran larvae were compared. In grass frog tadpoles (Rana pipiens), injections of oPRL (10 p,gigmlday) increased tail growth and body weight but had no effect on hindlimb growth or development. The sa
