[Glutathione participation in regulating the secretory function of the stomach].
In experiments on dogs with Pavlov's pouches it was shown that glutathione infusion into the blood produced a highly pronounced stimulating effect on the gastric secretion induced by pentagastrin. Endogenous glutathione produced similar effect. It was found that intake as a drink of mono-sodium glutamate led to a significant increase of glutathione concentration in the dogs' blood, that was, probably, the result of its intensified production in the intestinal wall and passing into the blood. The growth of glutathione concentration in the blood coincided with its stimulating effect on the gastric secretion. Glutathione administered separately into the blood, or intake of glutathione without pentagastrin did not produce stimulating effect on gastric secretion. The data presented have evidenced that glutathione, besides its known functions, plays a role of the factor engaged in the regulation of gastric secretion.
