This peptide of 61 amino acids, known also as trypsin-sensitive cholecystokinin releasing peptide, has been isolated from rat pancreatic juice by virtue of its ability to stimulate cholecystokinin release and pancreatic enzyme secretion in response to dietary protein intake (Iwai et al, 1987, 1988).
The protein has been called monitor peptide because of its role in the intestine, i.e., monitoring the intake of dietary protein (Iwai et al, 1987). Liddle et al (1992) have reported that monitor peptide releases cholecystokinin from isolated rat intestinal mucosal cells and that this effect depends upon extracellular calcium. They have used monitor peptide as a tool for isolating cholecystokinin cells from a population of small intestinal mucosal
