[The mechanisms of the inhibition of gastric acid secretion induced by intraduodenal amino acids in rats].
We investigated the effect of intraduodenal amino acids (AA) on gastric acid secretion and gastrin release, and possible role of endogenous secretin on this phenomenon in vivo in rats. Intraduodenal administration of mixed AA solution (140 mg/hr, pH6.5) resulted in significant inhibition of gastric acid secretion and gastrin release stimulated by intragastric perfusion of peptone (0.5%). Intravenous infusion of secretin (0.05CU/kg/hr) also inhibited peptone-stimulated gastric acid secretion and gastrin release. Furthermore, the AA-induced suppression of gastric acid secretion was significantly blocked by intravenous injection of rabbit anti-secretin serum. In conclusion, intraduodenal AA inhibit peptone-stimulated gastric acid secretion and gastrin release, and endogenous secretin released by AA is attributed to this suppression. Thus, the result of this study indicates that intestinal AA regulate gastric secretory function mediated by AA-released endogenous secretin in the intestinal phase.
