Quantification and partial characterisation of regulatory peptides in the liver fluke, Fasciola hepatica, from different mammalian hosts. Comparative biochemistry and physiology. C, Comparative pharmacology and toxicology, 1991, Volume: 99, Issue:1-2 1. Extracts of the liver fluke, Fasciola hepatica from three different hosts (cow, sheep, rat) have been subjected to radioimmunoassay using antisera to 6 mammalian regulatory peptides. 2. Immunoreactivity was measured to pancreatic polypeptide, substance P, peptide histidine isoleucine and gastrin-releasing peptide. Levels of each peptide varied considerably in flukes from different hosts. 3. Reverse-phase HPLC of rat and sheep fluke extracts revealed three molecular forms of tachykinin immunoreactivity and single peaks of pancreatic polypeptide and peptide histidine isoleucine immunoreactivity. No GRP-immunoreactivity was detected by RIA of HPLC fractions.
