Motilin fluctuations in healthy volunteers determined by liquid chromatography mass spectrometry

This study highlights the utility of LC-MS/MS for parallel measurement of motilin alongside other peptide hormones, and supports previous reports of the cyclical nature of motilin levels in the fasting state and interruption with feeding. This analytical method has utility for further clinical studies into motilin and gut hormone physiology in human volunteers.
