Peptic ulcer and gastrin in pigs.

L A Castles, J Terblanche, R V van Hoorn-Hickman

    The Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery
    |April 1, 1978
    PubMed
    Summary

    Bile duct ligation in pigs increases gastric acid but not serum gastrin levels, suggesting gastrin is not the sole cause of ulcers. This finding is crucial for understanding peptic ulcer disease mechanisms.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Physiology

    Background:

    • Bile duct ligation in pigs is known to cause gastric ulceration.
    • Human peptic ulceration may not involve elevated serum gastrin levels.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate portal and peripheral serum gastrin levels in pigs after bile duct ligation.
    • To assess basal acid concentration and response to a protein meal in these pigs.

    Main Methods:

    • Bile duct ligation and sham operations were performed on pigs.
    • Serum gastrin levels (portal and peripheral) and gastric acid concentration were measured.
    • Response to a protein meal was evaluated.

    Main Results:

    • Bile duct-ligated pigs showed increased basal acid concentration.
    • Serum gastrin levels remained within the normal range in bile duct-ligated pigs.
    • No significant difference was found between portal and peripheral gastrin levels.

    Conclusions:

    • Increased gastric acid secretion in pigs with bile duct ligation-induced ulcers may not be solely mediated by gastrin.
    • Further research is needed to elucidate the mechanisms of gastrin-independent ulcer formation.
