Abstract

Hog gastrin prepared by the Gregory method stimulates antibody production in rabbits. Rabbit anti-hog gastrin serum which was reacted with hog, dog, and human gastrins in vitro caused reduction of their gastric stimulatory effect, indicating a biological cross reaction among these species.
