Biological and immunological properties of human gastrin I analogues
Abstract:
The 15-methionine of human little gastrin I, prone to oxidation with concomitant loss of biological activity, has been replaced by leucine, norleucine and methoxinine, respectively. The resulting analogues exhibit acid secretory potencies practically undistinguishable from that of the parent hormone, whereas their immunoreactivity, as assayed with four different antisera raised against human little gastrin I, reflect to a significant extent the afforded modifications. Only [15-methoxinine]human little gastrin I retains practically the full reactivity for all antisera examined. The results suggest that this 15-methoxinine analogue is well suited for both biological and immunological studies.

Pathophysiology of Peptic Ulcer Disease: Injurious Factors
In the antrum region, G cells secrete the gastrin hormone that binds to gastrin-cholecystokinin-B (CCK2) receptors on parietal and enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells in the fundic glands. Simultaneously, the vagus nerve releases acetylcholine, which binds to M3...

Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology
In acute gastritis, the gastric mucosa becomes swollen and red and undergoes superficial erosion. Superficial ulceration may lead to bleeding.
In chronic gastritis, persistent or repeated insults lead to chronic inflammatory changes and, eventually, thinning or atrophy of the gastric tissue.
Gastritis can stem from various causes, each...
Glucagon-like Receptor Agonists
GLP-1, when administered in high doses intravenously, triggers insulin secretion, inhibits glucagon release, slows gastric emptying, reduces food intake, and restores normal insulin secretion. However, its rapid inactivation by the...
