  • Title: Acid and pepsin secretion of separated gastric pouches during perfusion of antral pouches with cholinergic stimulating and blocking agents and lignocaine.
    Author: McLeay LM, Titchen DA.
    Journal: J Physiol; 1977 Jan; 264(1):215-27. PubMed ID: 320308.
    Abstract:
    1. Secretion of HCl and pepsin from abomasal fundic pouches was studied in sheep during perfusion of antral pouches with cholinergic blocking and stimulating agents and lignocaine. 2. Resting secretion was reduced to about 50% of control levels and secretory responses to feeding were largely or completely blocked during antral pouch perfusions with atropine (0-01-0-16%) and hexamethonium (1%). 3. Antral pouch perfusions with lignocaine (2%) reduced fundic pouch resting secretion to about 60% of control values but did not block secretory responses to feeding. 4. Perfusions of acetylcholine (0-1%) and carbachol (0-0037 and 0-005%) through antral pouches characteristically stimulated increases in the concentration of acid, outputs of acid and pepsin, but not concentration of pepsin. 5. The mechanisms involved in the release of gastrin in the sheep are discussed. 6. It is concluded that antral secretion of gastrin contributes both to the maintenance of resting secretion of acid and the secretory responses of fundic pouches of sheep when they eat freshly provided food.
