Chronic effects of nicotine on gastric secretion in vagotomized rats

Résumé La sécrétion gastrique a été mesurée dans des rats mâles avec ligature pylorique de deux heures, après 14 jours d'injections sous-cutanées de nicotine ou de NaCl. Les résultats de l'administration de nicotine furent une augmentation du volume du suc gastrique, de la production d'acide et de la production de pepsine. La vagotomie abdominale bilatérale a prévenu la stimulation gastrique secreteuse, provoquée par la nicotine.     

Hydrochloric acid secretion of fetal rat gastric mucosa]

In Rat, spontaneous secretion of hydrochloric acid by gastric mucosa takes place before birth. From day 20 of gestation until birth, the pH of gastric content markedly decreases, reaching 3 pH-units in newborns. During this period, Cl- concentration in gastric juice increases, while p-CO2 remains constant.     

Inhibition in the rat of gastric acid secretion and cyclic AMP analogs accumulation in vitro by somatostatin

Summary Various somatostatin (S) analogs exhibited similar degree and similar, or shorter, duration of inhibition of basal gastric acid secretion as S in the unanesthetized rat and similar, or less, inhibition of the cyclic AMP accumulation induced by prostaglandin E₂ in the rat anterior pituitary in vitro. With the analogs examined, the gastrointestinal and pituitary receptors appear to exhibit generally similar recognition specificity with the differences within the gastrointestinal activities reflecting duration of availability rather than receptor affinity.The author acknowledges the technical assistance of Mr L.

Inhibitory effect of ouabain on in vitro and in vivo gastric acid secretion in the frog and the rat

The in vitro and in vivo effects of ouabain on gastric acid secretion in the frog and the rat, the 2 species known to have different sensitivity to ouabain, were studied. It was found that ouabain was a potent inhibitor of histamine-stimulated acid secretion in the isolated frog gastric mucosa. Ouabain administered i.v. at dose levels far below the lethal range also produced a marked and significant reduction of histamine-stimulated gastric acid secretion in the anesthetized frogs and rats. It is considered that the inhibitory effect of ouabain on acid secretion could be partly related to its specific antagonizing action on the Na+ -K+ -ATPase in the gastric mucosa.

Effect of deglycyrrhizinized liquorice on gastric acid secretion,histidine decarboxylase activity and serum gastrin level in the rat

Zusammenfassung Nachweis, dass die Behandlung mit einem deglycyrrhizinierten Lakrizpräparat die basale Säurereaktion bei Ratten hemmt. Erhöhtes antrales pH führt zu vermehrter Freisetzung von antralem Gastrin mit bedeutender Aktivierung der Histidindecarboxylase in der Magenschleimhaut.

Chronic effects of nicotine on rat gastric secretion

Résumé Après avoir reÇu 300 g de tartrate de nicotinehydrogène pendant 15 jours il y eut des augmentations significatives dans le volume du suc gastrique et dans la production de pepsine. Des injections de nicotine on abaissé tous les paramètres, mais combinées avec de la gastrine synthétique (ICI-50123), elles n'ont aucun effet. Les résultats présentés peuvent expliquer pourquoi l'habitude de fumer est un facteur contribuant à la formation à la guérison des ulcères peptiques.     

Effect of theophylline on acid secretion of stimulated human gastric mucosa

Zusammenfassung Während submaximaler und maximaler Säurestimulation mit Histalog steigert i.v. Injektion von 340 mg 7-(-Hydroxyäthyl)-theophyllin und 100 mg Theophyllin (=«OT Homburg») beim Menschen die Magensalzsäurebildung signifikant durch Zunahme der Volumenrate. Die Befunde werden im Hinblick auf die mögliche Bedeutung von zyklischem 3, 5-AMP als intrazelluläre Mittlersubstanz bei der Bildung und Sekretion von Magensalzsäure diskutiert.
