As an attempt to approach the pathogenesis of peptic ulcer disease, antral gastrin and somatostatin concentrations were studied in normal subjects, patients with duodenal ulcer and gastric ulcer. In the patients with peptic ulcer, antral somatostatin concentrations were significantly lower than those in normal subjects. In non-ulcer subjects, including normal subjects and patients with atrophic gastritis, antral somatostatin concentrations were correlated inversely with the degree of antral gastritis, while in the patients with peptic ulcer, especially in duodenal ulcer, they were low, irrespective of histological picture of antral mucosa. In the patients with duodenal ulcer, low antral somatostatin concentrations with high antral gastrin/somatostatin ratio may cause increased serum gastrin levels and increased gastric acid secretion. From the above findings, it has been concluded that low antral somatostatin levels may be related to the pathogenesis of duodenal ulcer disease.

D000328 Adult A person having attained full growth or maturity. Adults are of 19 through 44 years of age. For a person between 19 and 24 years of age, YOUNG ADULT is available. Adults
D013004 Somatostatin A 14-amino acid peptide named for its ability to inhibit pituitary GROWTH HORMONE release, also called somatotropin release-inhibiting factor. It is expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems, the gut, and other organs. SRIF can also inhibit the release of THYROID-STIMULATING HORMONE; PROLACTIN; INSULIN; and GLUCAGON besides acting as a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator. In a number of species including humans, there is an additional form of somatostatin, SRIF-28 with a 14-amino acid extension at the N-terminal.
