Chromogranins A and B and secretogranin II have been localized in a wide spectrum of gastroenteropancreatic endocrine/paracrine cells. Chromogranin A immunoreactivity showed the widest distribution and was displayed by glucagon-, PP-, gastrin-, gastrin-CCK-, secretin-immunoreactive cells, the most intense stainings being peculiar of enterochromaffin cells. Chromogranin B immunoreactivity was detected in gastrin- and glucagon cells and in some enterochromaffin cells containing also chromogranin A. Secretogranin II was paired to chromogranin A in glucagon cells of pancreatic islets or occurred alone in glycentin/PP cells of colonic mucosa. Neither of the chromogranins nor secretogranin II have been so far detected in somatostatin-, GIP-, or motilin-immunoreactive cells. Chromogranin A but not chromogranin B or secretogranin II has been detected in the gastric argyrophilic ECL cells.
