ABSTRACT
Conscious cats equipped with a gastric fistula and a denervated Heidenhain pouch were submitted to weekly measurements of the basal and pentagastrin-stimulated gastric secretion for 1 to 14 years. Rhythms of basal secretion were documented in 37 cats for the group studies, in 25 cats only for the individual studies which required at least whole year data. Twelve-month or 6-month rhythms were detected for each variable studied, i.e. volume, acid, pepsin, fucose and uronic acid outputs in the group studies, with peaks for volume, acid and pepsin in Winter, peaks for uronic acid in Spring and Fall indicating different rhythms for oxyntic, chief and mucous cells. Individual studies detected rhythms in 25% of the analyses, and demonstrated male and female and cat to cat differences. Spectral analysis in 3 cats confirmed the differences in the individual rhythms with prominent peaks differing from 365 days in 50% of the cases. Chronopharmacological responses to pentagastrin were documented for volume, acid and pepsin outputs in 5 male and 6 female cats. Group analysis detected a Winter acrophase for volume and acid secretion and a Summer acrophase for pepsin secretion. Analysis of the stimulated response data showed interindividual variation but a higher percentage of detection for rhythms, i.e. 38% for all variables and 50% for pepsin secretion. Different rhythms in acid and pepsin secretion documented in individual studies could provide the basis of a better understanding of the discrepancies reported in the literature concerning the seasonal incidence of peptic ulcer disease.
