title: Does gastrin (pentagastrin) act directly on the parietal cell in the isolated whole stomach of the mouse?
abstract: Acid secretory effect of pentagastrin and compound 48/80 was studied in the isolated whole stomach of the mouse. Acid secretory response to compound 48/80 was inhibited by cimetidine, indicating histamine involvement in this reaction. Acid secretion stimulated by pentagastrin was not diminished after pre-treatment with compound 48/80 suggesting that gastrin releases non-mast cell histamine. Secretory response to pentagastrin was reduced in Ca++-free serosal media but not to histamine and compound 48/80. A possible pathway of gastrin will be discussed.
