Abstract

The distribution of cyclo (His-Pro)-like immunoreactivity in frog skins from seven frog species was examined. The chromatographic elution profile of cyclo (His-Pro)-like immunoreactivity in amphibian skins measured by radioimmunoassay corresponded precisely to that of [ 3H-Pro]-cyclo (His-Pro) after DEAE-Cellulose, Sephadex G-25 and high-pressure liquid chromatography. The concentrations of cyclo (His-Pro) in frog skins were much higher than the concentrations of TRH previously observed in skin and the concentrations of cyclo (His-Pro) in both brain and gastrointestinal tract.
