Present knowledge about gastrointestinal peptide hormones is discussed from three points of view: (a) diagnostic significance of these hormones; (b) states characterized by over-production or deficiency of peptide hormones; (c) clinical application and perspectives of gastrointestinal hormones. The data in the literature are subjected to a critical analysis; in addition, the author's own experiments are discussed.
