Endogenous motilin and lower esophageal sphincter pressure in man: clue to an association. 1976

W Domschke, and G Lux, and P Mitznegg, and W Rösch, and S Domschke

In man (n = 5), after intraduodenal instillation of 50 ml of 0.1 N hydrochloric acid the lower esophageal sphincter pressure (LESP) and plasma motilin concentrations rise concomitantly exceeding basal by about 80% (p less than 0.025) and 90% (p less than 0.05), respectively, at 3 to 4 minutes. These results suggest that the increase in LESP after duodenal acidification may be brought about by endogenously released motilin.
