The study of the chemical characterization of gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) and the role of GIP in the enteroinsular axis

The dual objectives of this thesis were to study the physiological role of GIP in the enteroinsular axis and to chemically characterize a side fraction identified in the purification of GIP. In the physiological studies, the dependency of the insulinotropic action of GIP on the prevailing state of...
