Serum gastric concentration after sham feeding and feeding under the influence of propranolol in man.
The influence of propranolol, 50 mug/kg administered intravenously, on the gastrin concentration during sham feeding and after a test meal was studied in eight normal subjects. beta-Adrenergic blockade had no inhibitory effect on the gastrin response to feeding. Sham feeding did not provoke a significant rise of serum concentration; however, in three subjects a definite gastrin response occurred in the presence of beta-adrenergic blockade.
