The specimens were extracted in 2 N acetic acid and tested fr smatstatin cntent with a specific radiimmunassay. n the cntrl subjects the smatstatin cncentratin (nangrams per milligram f wet weight) was 0.60 ± 0.12 in the fundus 1.68 ± 0.33 in the antrum and 1.35 ± 0.30 in the dudenal bulb. Atrphy f the gastric mucsa was assciated with a reductin f the smatstatin cncentratin in the fundus and the antrum. N significant variatin was bserved in the present series f patients with gastric ulcer. Dudenal ulcer was assciated with a reductin f the smatstatin cncentratin in the antrum (P < 0.02). These results indicate that smatstatin is widely distributed frm fundus t dudenal bulb in adult human subjects and that lwer antral cncentratins are bserved in patients with dudenal ulcer. nitially islated frm bvine hypthalamus smatstatin (grwth hrmne release-inhibiting hrmne) was subsequently detected by immunflurescence in sme cells f the gastric and dudenal mucsa in man2 and by radiimmunassay in the upper digestive tract in rat. 3 N infrmatin n the physilgical r pathphysilgical rles f this peptide is yet available.

An active uncmplicated dudenal ulcer was detected r cnfirmed in 21 patients (1 female and 20 males mean age 46.4 range 26 t 73); the cmmn histlgical picture in this grup included a nrmal fundic mucsa and mild t marked inflammatin f the antral mucsa but n severe atrphy. Nine patients had a nnmalignant gastric ulcer as shwn by multiple bipsies (2 females and 7 males mean age 51.2 range 31 t 76); mucsal alteratins including varius degrees f inflammatin atrphy and metaplasia were recrded at histlgy in this grup. Surgery. Specimens were btained frm 12 patients in whm a subttal gastrectmy was perfrmed fr a dudenal ulcer (7 males age range 24 t 51 years) r a benign gastric ulcer (5 males 42 t 48 years). Five additinal specimens were cllected frm patients with a gastric carcinma (3 males and 2 females age range 38 t 72 years) in whm the gastric bipsies taken at a minimal distance f 3 cm frm the edge f the tumr shwed severe atrphy f the glands and n tumr spread. Extractin Prcedure Smatstatin was extracted after a slight mdificatin f the methd f Arimura et al. 3 The bipsies were weighed while thawing and were immediately immersed in 200 Ll f biling distilled water fr 10 min. They were then hmgenized in 2 N acetic acid with a Kntes tissue grinder (size AA) (T. M. Kntes Vineland N. J.). The fine suspensin was left under agitatin fr 16 hr at 4 C and lyphilized. The dry residue was suspended in 0.05 M ammnium acetate buffer at ph 5.5 and centrifuged at 2000 rpm at 4 C fr 1 hr. Smatstatin was assayed in the supernatant fluid. Cntrl experiments were perfrmed t test the validity f this prcedure. The immunreactivity f the synthetic cyclic tetradecapeptide was tested befre and after heating at 100 C fr 10 min. The recvery f the peptide was estimated by adding and 8 ng f synthetic cyclic smatstatin t five grups f 14 aliquts f a hmgenate f gastric mucsa subsequently submitted t the extractin prcedure. N attempt was made t study the stability f smatstatin in tissues kept at rm temperature because all bipsies were immediately frzen. The variability f the smatstatin cncentratin frm bipsy t bipsy was estimated frm the cefficient f variatin fr the grups f three bipsies taken at the different levels in the cntrl subjects.

The smatstatin antiserum was btained frm a New Zealand white rabbit twice injected with synthetic cyclic smatstatin (0.1 mg) cnjugated t bvine albumin (0.5 mg) thrugh carbdiimide cndensatin 12 using ethyl-cd (5 mg). The specificity f the antiserum was tested by incubating the fllwing hrmnes at the 100-ng per tube level: highly purified prcine vasactive intestinal peptide prcine chlecystkinin and prcine secretin (Prfessr V.

The reactin mixture was then applied n a 0.6- by 5-cm CM 52 clumn equilibrated in 0.1 M glycine-hcl buffer ph 4.0. The idinated peptide was eluted thrugh a linear ph gradient frm 4.0 t 2.6. The mst immunreactive fractins as tested vernight in excess antiserum were diluted and stred at -40 C. Serial dilutins f idinated 1- tyrsyl smatstatin were incubated in rutine cnditins t test the immunreactivity fthe tracer. All assays were set up in 50 mm ammnium acetate buffer ph 5.5 with 1% hrse serum 1 mg f sdium azide per ml and 5 mm ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA). Synthetic cyclic smatstatin was used as standard. The separatin f free frm antibdy-bund peptide was perfrmed with a duble antibdy prcedurel using nnimmune rabbit serum (final 1:2400) and a dnkey antirabbit serum (final 1:250). The tracer abut 1.8 pg per tube as estimated frm self-displacement studies and the secnd antibdy were added 24 and 48 hr respectively after the standard and the first antiserum. The within-assay and between-assay variatins were estimated by assaying 20 unknwn samples twice in the same assay r in tw different assays. Assay f Samples The mucsal extracts were tested at three dilutins in duplicate in rder t cmpare the reactivity f human smatstatin t that f the standard. Spare aliquts were tested at ther dilutins when necessary. All assays included samples frm the varius clinical grups. Results were expressed as nangram equivalents f synthetic cyclic smatstatin per milligram f fresh mucsa. ndividual mean values at each level tested were taken fr calculatin. The Mann Whitney U-test was used t cmpare the crrespnding values in the cntrls and the three clinical grups. Gel Filtratin Studies Fractins f dudenal antral and fundic mucsal extracts frm 3 cntrl subjects and 3 dudenal ulcer patients were pled t a final vlume f 1.8 ml arid applied n a 2- by 50-cm G25 medium Sephadex clumn equilibrated in 0.2 M acetic acid with 1% hrse serum and calibrated with bvine albumin synthetic cyclic smatstatin and 125. Fur-milliliter fractins were cllected and lyphilized. The residue was suspended in ammnium acetate buffer and centrifuged. Smatstatin was assayed in the supernatant fluid.
3 July 1978 SOMATOSTATN N GASTRODUODENAL MUCOSA 15 Ten surgical bipsies frm the antrum (ttal wet weight 723 mg) and prximal dudenum (247 mg) were extracted and the supernatant was chrmatgraphed as abve. Fractins 15 t 30 crrespnding t the immunreactivity eluted near the vid vlume were lyphilized suspended in ammnium acetate buffer centrifuged and pled. Aliquts (0.1 ml were either applied n a 0.6- by 100-cm G25 fine Sephadex clumn equilibrated in 0.2 M acetic acid with 1% hrse serum r incubated with 0.2 ml f 12 M urea fr 2 hr at 20 C and subsequently applied n the same clumn preladed with 1.5 ml f 8 M urea. The 0.5-ml fractins were lyphilized and tested fr smatstatin cntent. Gastrin mmunreactivity in Endscpic Specimens Cntrl experiments shwed that the recvery f synthetic human gastrin 1-17 added t tissue extracts was less than 15% in the present extractin cnditins. Hence the measurement f the gastrin cntent was restricted t fundic and antral endscpic specimens in rder t cntrl the reliability f tissue sampling at the gastric level in the endscpy patients. The antigastrin serum (28 C) was btained frm a rabbit immunized against synthetic human gastrin 2-17 (.C..) cnjugated t bvine albumin thrugh carbdiimide cndensatin. 12 Synthetic human gastrin 1-17 was used as standard and fr idinatin with by the chlramine T methd13 the tracer being purified by anin exchange chrmatgraphy.15 The separatin f free frm antibdy-bund hrmne was perfrmed with the same duble antibdy system as used fr the smatstatin assay.

This suggests that the distributin f smatstatin-prducing cells in the gastric and dudenal mucsa is nt unifrm. mmuncytchemical studies cnducted in man2. 19 and radiimmunlgical studies perfrmed in rats have shwn that smatstatin is detected in the stmach and the dudenum f these species the peptide being preferentially lcated in the antrum. This is cnfirmed by the present results. Hwever at variance with the results btained in rats3. 17 the smatstatin cncentratin in the mucsa f the dudenal bulb was clse t the value recrded in the antrum in the present cntrl subjects. Whether rat and man differ in this respect is uncertain. Bipsies frm the dudenal bulb nly were cllected thrugh the present study s that the pssibility f a smatstatin gradient alng the dudenum cannt be ruled ut. n cntrast t the distributin f gastrin substantial amunts f smatstatin were detected in the fundic mucsa f cntrl subjects. n view f the numerus effects f exgenus smatstatin n the excrine and endcrine secretins f the upper digestive tract the diffuse distributin f smatstatin frm fundus t dudenal bulb may thus reflect a wide range f physilgical-endcrine r paracrine - actins f the endgenus peptide. nvestigatins n the smatstatin cell ppulatin in patients with atrphy f the gastric mucsa have nt been reprted yet. Histlgically antral smatstatin cells are mainly lcated in the midpart f the mucsa2 but the preferential lcatin f these cells in the fundus has nt been specifically described. n the present study 7 f the endscpy subjects with n macrscpic lesins and 5 patients perated n fr a gastric carcinma shwed prfund atrphy f the gastric mucsa in the znes where the bipsies were taken fr smatstatin measurement. Althugh it is impssible at present t estimate the cntributin f factrs ther than lcal histlgy t the reductin f the mucsal smatstatin cntent the fact that the peptide cncentratins recrded at the fundic and antral levels in these patients were clearly lwer than the values in cntrls suggests that atrphic changes f the gastric mucsa are assciated with a reductin fthe tissue smatstatin cntent. Whether this variatin is attributable t increased release f the peptide r t a reductin f the smatstatin cell ppulatin will await studies investigating bth the density f these cells and their functinal state at the time f sampling. Sensitive detectin methds allwing fr the measurement f circulating smatstatin if any are needed t ascertain pssible abnrmalities f the metablism f this peptide in patients with peptic ulcer. n a preliminary histlgical study the rati f smatstatin cells t gastrin cells in the antral mucsa was fund t be increased in patients with gastric ulcer which was partly accunted fr by a reductin f the gastrin cell ppulatin and nrmal r decreased in dudenal ulcer patients with a nrmal r increased acid secretin respectively.20 n the present study the smatstatin cncentratins in the patients with gastric ulcer tended t be higher at the dudenal level and lwer in the antrum than the crrespnding values in cntrls but neither variatin reached significance when the series was cmpleted. n the 28 unselected dudenal ulcer patients a 40% reductin f the smatstatin cncentratin was bserved at the antral level. Whether this variatin simply reflects the antral mucsal inflammatin cmmnly bserved in these patients as well as in ther studies r a specific alteratin f the metablism f smatstatin will have t be delineated thrugh studies crrelating mucsal smatstatin cntent t acid secretin rate gastrin release and pathlgy f the antral mucsa. Whatever the mechanism will prve t be the reductin f the smatstatin cncentratin bserved in the present dudenal ulcer patients tgether with the decreased ptency f exgenus smatstatin n acid secretin and gastrin release bserved in ther studies23 indicates that smatstatin deserves further investigatin as t its relatin t the pathphysilgy f dudenal ulcer. When acetic extracts f gastric mucsa and pancreas frm rats were chrmatgraphed n G25 Sephadex sme immunreactivity was eluted in the vid vlume:l suggesting that varius mlecular frms f the peptide might be present in these tissues. n a subsequent study the "big" smatstatin detected in rat pancreas was fund t cnvert int a smaller mlecular species when the tissue extracts were incubated in 8 M urea. 24 Using similar chrmatgraphic cnditins we fund that part f the immunreactivity detected in human mucsal extracts was eluted near the vid vlume. Hwever the simple rechrmatgraphy f these fractins with and withut preincubatin in cncentrated urea yielded a majr immunreactive peak near the elutin vlume f the tetradecapeptide thus cnfirming that mst if nt all big smatstatin is an artifact attributable t nncvalent binding f the peptide t larger mlecules. n the present study the main immunreactive peak detected in extracts f human gastric and dudenal mucsa was eluted slightly behind the vlume f the synthetic cyclic tetradecapeptide. This may indicate that the natural human and synthetic peptides have slightly different charges r cnfiguratins. REFERENCES 1.
