General description

GAST gene encodes for the protein [Leu15]-Gastrin I in human. In human chromosome, the gene GAST is localized on 17q21.2.[1] G cells in the stomach antrum produces the precursor of [Leu15]-Gastrin I, progastrin.[1] Progastrin undergoes cleavage and processing to yield gastrin, which is trophic for the entire gastrointestinal epithelium. Gastrin is essential for the growth of the digestive system and stimulates the production of gastric acid by parietal cells. Gastrin exerts its function through G-protein-coupled receptor called the cholecystokinin (CCK) or CCK-B receptor (CCK-BR).[2] Gastrin release is stimulated by food, especially protein diet and is inhibited by very low pH. Atrophic gastritis, a Helicobacter pylori infection and long-term administration of proton pump inhibitors infection may cause overexpression of gastrin. Gastric adenocarcinoma show high levels of gastrin.[1]

Application

Gastrin has been used:
  • as a medium supplement establish enteroid cultures[3]
  • as a supplement to standard Dulbecco′s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) culture medium,[4][5] human minigut medium[6] to establish the growth of crypts.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Gastrin I analog with full biological activity and improved stability in aqueous solutions. Leu15 replaces Met15, that is readily oxidized resulting in loss of biological activity.

Questions

1–4 of 4 Questions  
  1. After preparing aliquots, what is the stability of this product at -20?

    1 answer
    1. The stability of this product in solution has not been evaluated. Generally, peptides should not be stored in solution for extended periods. Should solution storage be necessary, storing aliquots at -20°C is suggested. Note that peptides have a tendency to stick to plastic containers upon storage.

  2. Is this product also suitable for use with other mammalian species, such as mouse, for ex vivo tissue studies, as opposed to just human organoid culture medium?

    1 answer
    1. The product's validation for batch release does not currently cover murine ex vivo tissue testing. However, the following citations may provide insights into its application for ex vivo non-human samples:

      Sci Adv. 2023 Nov 17;9(46):eadh0322. Title: Inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene Apc synergizes with H. pylori to induce DNA damage in murine gastric stem and progenitor cells PMID: 37967175

      Infect Immun. 2016 Sep 19;84(10):3083-91. Title: Intestinal Enteroids Model Guanylate Cyclase C-Dependent Secretion Induced by Heat-Stable Enterotoxins PMID: 27481254

  3. I am interested in this product. A colleague uses it for human organoid culture medium. However, I work with murine ex vivo tissues. Is this also applicable for other mammalian species (so mouse in stead of human)?

    1 answer
    1. This product has not been tested for use with murine ex vivo tissue. However, the following citations may be of interest for its application in ex vivo non-human samples.
