I'm a student interested in which type of hormones are more likely to
be discovered these days, a peptide or non-peptide hormone.


This query stems from a controversial CellBio exam question:

"A new hormone has been discovered. In determining which tissue
secretes it, useful assays would include which of the following blots:
Northern, Southern, Western, Eastern." [Answer Key = "Northern and
Western".]
