I don't think the endocrine cells in the Islets of Langerhan are considered enteroendocrine cells. --Eikenhein (talk) 05:06, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Instinctively I agree with the user above, seeing as 'entero' usually refers to the gut. But if you look on the page for entero, you see that it can also be used for the endocrine cells of the stomach and pancreas. For absolute certain I have seen it in reference to stomach enteroendocrine cells, and heard it used in conversation that way. Darkpipettes (talk) 21:42, 10 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
