title: Actions of thyrotropin-releasing hormone on the gastrointestinal function in man. II. Inhibition of pentagastrin-stimulated acid secretion.
abstract: The pentagastrin-stimulated gastric volume and acid output were measured with and without an i.v. thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) infusion (666 microgram/h). TRH inhibited the pentagastrin (6 microgram/kg s.c.) stimulated volume to 67.5 +/- 8.4% (p less than 0.01) and the acid output to 65 +/- 8.4% of control infusion values (mean +/- S.E.M.). It is concluded that TRH inhibits the pentagastrin-stimulated gastric secretion in man.
