EECs contain peptides (also sometimes termed hormones) in secretory granules, and upon chemical, mechanical, or neural stimulation, an influx of intracellular calcium stimulates the secretion of gut peptides through the basolateral membrane and into the extracellular space 17
We want to identify really useful peptides that can be leveraged and advanced as treatment for human diseases for which there is no solution at the moment. One potential prospect is MOTs-C, which Cohen discovered and has studied in Phase 1A and Phase 1B trials
So I think it really does come down to what is your goal
