syndrome has changed dramatically. The establishment of gastrin hypersecretion by a non …

The process of digestion is initiated by the nutrients themselves and integrated by a local
segment of the neuroendocrine system. The distinctive feature of the neuroendocrine system …

The interaction of gastrin and secretin, in the regulation of human lower esophageal
sphincter competence, was studied in 54 normal subjects. A dose-response curve, for the …

Plasma gastrin concentrations were determined by radioimmunoassay in 8 subjects given a
test meal with and without prior atropinization. Gastrin levels increased in all subjects …

That duodenal ulcer is in some way an abnormal reaction of the duodenal mucosa to acid
and pepsin is the hypothesis which underlies most current views ofthe pathophysiological …

1. A new preparation of gastric mucosa isolated from new‐born piglets is described. The

The lower esophageal sphincter response to prompt intravenous injection of pentagastrin
alone, and in combination with glucagon, was investigated in four healthy volunteers. The …

Atropine (80 µg per kg) was injected intravenously into 9 fistula dogs secreting in response
to insulin hypoglycemia, causing immediate (100%) and prolonged (> 21½ hr) inhibition …

We have considered three possible explanations for the ability of cimetidine to inhibit basal
gastric acid secretion as well as acid secretion stimulated by histamine, gastrin, and …
