• Background: Bombesin is a 14-amino acid peptide originally isolated from the skin of the European fire- bellied toad (Bombina bombina). It has two known homologs in mammals called neuromedin B and gastrin-releasing peptide. Bombesin stimulates gastrin release from G cells and activates three different G-protein-coupled receptors known as BBR1, -2, and -3. It also activates these receptors in the brain. Together with cholecystokinin, Bombesin is the second major source of negative feedback signals that stop eating behaviour. Also, it is known to be a tumor marker for small cell carcinoma of lung, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, and neuroblastoma. This antibody was generated by immunization of rabbits with Bombesin coupled to a carrier protein.
