The stomach of the monkey Tupaia belangeri was investigated by serial sections utilizing the indirect immunoperoxidase reaction to demonstrate the distribution of glucagon, gastrin and somatostatin immunoreactive cells. A striking topographical distribution was found. Glucagon and somatostatin immunoreactive cells were located in the upper parts, whereas gastrin and somatostatin immunoreactive cells were situated in the lower parts of the stomach. The remaining regions of the stomach did not contain cells immunoreactive to the antisera applied. Similarly, the ultrastructural study revealed the same distribution of endocrine cell types identified as A-cells, D-cells, and G-cells. Thus, there may be a glucagon-somatostatin area in the upper part and a gastrin-somatostatin endocrine surface in the lower part of the stomach. This spatial relationship of the endocrine cells suggests a functional cell interaction between glucagon and somatostatin cells in the cranial stomach and between gastrin and somatostatin in the caudal parts of the stomach.
