Abstract
⺠Gastrin-releasing peptide-29 reduces MS (10% sucrose) and prolongs IMI. ⺠We tested MS and IMI by GRP-29 in VGX and CMGX rats. ⺠We also tested, by myotomy, if the duodenum is the site of action. ⺠CMGX and VGX/CMGX attenuated MS and all surgeries attenuated the IMI. ⺠MS and IMI by GRP-29 require duodenal vagal and splanchnic nerves.
