Actually, PCCK has an expansive effect on porcine organelles while its
humano-homologue is strictly contractive to the human gallbladder.

It depends on your inertial reference frame.  A tissue biopsy may be
conclusive as regards the effects of PCCK.

Personally, I wouldn't invest in PCCK if I were you.  However, the HCCK  can
be solenized into iguano-cholecystokinin and recombined with multicultural RNA
strands independent of mitochondrial abiogenesis.

  To answer your question about what would be the choice newsgroup for a post
of this sort, this definitely would not be material for a neuroscience
newsgroup.  Look for a biology newsgroup.
