  • Title: Bilateral adrenalectomy or subdiaphragmatic vagotomy on gastric tissue histamine concentration in albino rats.
    Author: Ganguly AK, Somasundaram K, Chawla VK, Majithia RH.
    Journal: Indian J Physiol Pharmacol; 1982; 26(3):221-6. PubMed ID: 7174069.
    Abstract:
    Gastric tissue histamine concentration was determined 14 days after mock subdiaphragmatic vagotomy, subdiaphragmatic vagotomy, mock bilateral adrenalectomy and bilateral adrenalectomy in four different groups of animals and the results were compared with those of control rats. The results show that neither of the experimental situations of mock subdiaphragmatic vagotomy, subdiaphragmatic vagotomy and mock bilateral adrenalectomy could bring about any significant change in gastric tissue histamine concentration fourteen days after the respective operations, whereas, following bilateral adrenalectomy, the gastric tissue histamine concentration went up to two and half times the basal level during the same period thus indicating that by removal of adrenal influences there was an increase in synthesis and storage of histamine in the stomach wall.
