  • Title: [Effect of cortisone acetate on acid secretion induced by histamine, pentagastrin, gastrin and food in dogs].

    Abstract:
    The effects of long term treatment with cortisone on the gastric secretion induced by histamine, pentagastrin, porcine gastrin and a meal have been investigated in four dogs with both gastric fistula and Heidenhain pouch. Cortisone increased the postcibal acid output and the observed maximal acid response from the pouch to all three exogenous stimuli. The ED 50'S remained unchanged. The same effects although less marked were observed in the innervated stomach. These data indicate that the increased acid secretion observed after long term treatment with cortisone is largely due to an increased secretory capacity of the gastric mucosa. This latter could result from an increase in the number of secretory units or to partial removal of a non competitive inhibitor of gastric secretion.
