Histamine-stimulated gastric secretion in rats with chronic renal insufficiency.
Chronic uremia was induced by long-term maintenance of rats which had undergone sub-total nephrectomy, with sham-operated rats serving as controls. Chronic gastric cannulas and chronic vascular catheters (vena cava) were installed and the rats were stimulated with intravenous infusion of histamine. In uremic rats, the volume of gastric juice, output of HC1 and H+ concentration were significantly higher than in the controls during the 6-hour secretion experiments.
