Increased histamine-output from the isolated gastric mucosa of the rat in response to pentagastrin and methacholine. 1982

I H Main, and J B Pearce

1 A rat isolated gastric mucosal preparation was used to monitor histamine output and acid secretion during stimulation by different secretagogues. 2 In non-stimulated preparations, spontaneous histamine output decreased over 450 min. 3 Stimulation of secretion with 4 (5)-methylhistamine or dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3'5'-monophosphate (db cyclic AMP) and theophylline did not influence histamine output. 4 Pentagastrin, gastrin and methacholine increased both acid secretion and histamine output. Pentagastrin and gastrin mobilized six times more histamine and relation to acid secretion than did methacholine. 5 Spontaneous histamine output and secretagogue-induced increases were unaffected by changes in external Ca2+ (0.0 to 7.2 mM) or Mg2+ (1.2 to 4.8 mM). 6 These results support the hypothesis that mucosal histamine plays a more important role in the action of gastrin than of cholinomimetics on the parietal cell.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008297	Male		Males
D008688	Methacholine Compounds	A group of compounds that are derivatives of beta-methylacetylcholine (methacholine).	Compounds, Methacholine
D008761	Methylhistamines	Histamine substituted in any position with one or more methyl groups. Many of these are agonists for the H1, H2, or both histamine receptors.
D010418	Pentagastrin	A synthetic pentapeptide that has effects like gastrin when given parenterally. It stimulates the secretion of gastric acid, pepsin, and intrinsic factor, and has been used as a diagnostic aid.	Acignost,Gastrin Pentapeptide,Peptavlon,Pentapeptide, Gastrin
D003994	Bucladesine	A cyclic nucleotide derivative that mimics the action of endogenous CYCLIC AMP and is capable of permeating the cell membrane. It has vasodilator properties and is used as a cardiac stimulant.

D005753	Gastric Mucosa	Lining of the STOMACH, consisting of an inner EPITHELIUM, a middle LAMINA PROPRIA, and an outer MUSCULARIS MUCOSAE. The surface cells produce MUCUS that protects the stomach from attack by digestive acid and enzymes. When the epithelium invaginates into the LAMINA PROPRIA at various region of the stomach (CARDIA; GASTRIC FUNDUS; and PYLORUS), different tubular gastric glands are formed. These glands consist of cells that secrete mucus, enzymes, HYDROCHLORIC ACID, or hormones.

D005755	Gastrins	A family of gastrointestinal peptide hormones that excite the secretion of GASTRIC JUICE. They may also occur in the central nervous system where they are presumed to be neurotransmitters.	Gastrin
D006636	Histamine Release	The secretion of histamine from mast cell and basophil granules by exocytosis. This can be initiated by a number of factors, all of which involve binding of IgE, cross-linked by antigen, to the mast cell or basophil's Fc receptors. Once released, histamine binds to a number of different target cell receptors and exerts a wide variety of effects.	Histamine Liberation,Histamine Liberations,Histamine Releases
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.	Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D016210	Methacholine Chloride	A quaternary ammonium parasympathomimetic agent with the muscarinic actions of ACETYLCHOLINE. It is hydrolyzed by ACETYLCHOLINESTERASE at a considerably slower rate than ACETYLCHOLINE and is more resistant to hydrolysis by nonspecific CHOLINESTERASES so that its actions are more prolonged. It is used as a parasympathomimetic bronchoconstrictor agent and as a diagnostic aid for bronchial asthma.
