1. Somatostatin concentrations were measured in homogenates of the pancreas-intestinal tissues from each period of the life cycle of Petromyzon marinus using radioimmunoassay. 2. Levels were very low in larva (4.0 pg/mg wet weight) and in the first three stages of metamorphosis, but increased from stage 4 onwards and reached a high in upstream-migrating adults (210.0 ng/mg). 3. These data correlate well with our previous morphological and immunohistochemical observations on the morphogenesis of somatostatin-containing D-cells during the life cycle and indicate that the increased concentration of hormone accompanies the development of the endocrine pancreas in lampreys.
