“…They were not found in the colon or caecum of quail, chicken and wild boar (Polak et al, 1974;Rawdon, 1984;Dall'Aglio et al, 1998). Immunocytochemical studies have shown that glucagon-immunoreactive cells are present in the stomach and in the intestine of chicken (Andrew, 1976;Usellini et al, 1983). Glucagon antiserum stained only a few cells in the mucosa of the colon (Peranzi and Lehy, 1984;Ceccarelli et al, 1995), rectum (Peranzi and Lehy, 1984) and caecum of horse, carabao, boar, cat, dog and monkey (Baltazar et al, 1998).…”

The processes of digestion in the avian gastrointestinal tract depend on sophisticated control systems that co-ordinate secretion of digestive juices and movement of the luminal contents. In the current study, the distribution of serotonin-, gastrin-, glucagon-and somatostatin-immunoreactive endocrine cells was investigated by immunocytochemical methods in the intestinal tract of the goose. The number of cells immunoreactive for each antiserum was evaluated in different regions of the intestinal tract. Serotonin-, glucagon-and somatostatinimmunoreactive endocrine cells were seen throughout the intestinal tract, but somatostatin-immunoreactive cells were not detected in the colon of the goose. Gastrin-immunoreactive cells were detected only in the duodenum, jejunum and colon mucosa. It is concluded that the distribution pattern of the entero-endocrine cells in the goose is similar to that of most of the mammalian and other poultry species.

The distribution of gastrin-, cholecystokinin-, glucagon-, secretin-, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide-, substance P-, bombesin-, neurotensin-, motilin-, somatostatin- and avian pancreatic polypeptide-like cells, demonstrated by indirect immunocytochemistry, was studied in samples from the following regions: proventriculus, gizzard, pylorus, duodenum, upper and lower ileum, caeca and rectum. The pylorus is particularly rich in gastrin-, neurotensin- and somatostatin-like cells. No cells immunoreactive for gastric inhibitory polypeptide or insulin were detected. In a number of instances the same cells were found to stain with antisera raised to different gut peptides. This happened with antisera detecting gastrin- and neurotensin-like cells, with secretin, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, glucagon and substance P. The possibility that antigenic determinants to more than one peptide are contained in certain endocrine-like cells is considered.
