| 11. | Gastrin itself has no effect on the maximum histamine-stimulated gastric acid secretion.
|
| 12. | They secrete gastrin produced by their G cells.
|
| 13. | Serum gastrin levels will be within normal limits.
|
| 14. | Finally, the Delta cells are inhibited to reduce the inhibition of gastrin release.
|
| 15. | Gastrin and secretin may also act as secretagogues.
|
| 16. | Hypochlorhydria induces G cell ( gastrin-producing ) hyperplasia, which leads to hypergastrinemia.
|
| 17. | Gastrin levels may indicate a hormonal connection.
|
| 18. | The release of histamine is stimulated by the secretion of gastrin from the G cells.
|
| 19. | Somatostatin inhibits gastrin release from G cells.
|
| 20. | Nerve endings in the stomach secrete two stimulatory neurotransmitters : acetylcholine and gastrin-releasing peptide.
