RESUMEN
Secretory responses to subcutaneously or intravenously administered betazole hydrochloride of graded doses were compared between acid and pepsin in the dog with gastric fistula. Although the dose related increments in acid and pepsin outputs were parallel in the range of lower doses than 2.0 to 3.0 mg/kg body weight of betazole hydrochloride, higher doses caused in decrease in pepsin output, but did not in acid output. It was pointed out that the dose of betazole hydrochloride that stimulates acid secretion maximally dose not correspond to the maximal stimulation for pepsin secretion in the dog.

In the perfusion test of the stomach of rats the stimulation of acid secretion by betazol (Histalog) after one or repeated injections was studied. The experiments yielded the following results: 1. The i.v. injection of 20 mg/kg b.w. betazol was followed by a maximun acid secretion. 2. Another infusion two hours later intensified this effect. The same acid secretion was seen after a small initial dose (5 mg/kg b.w.) half an hour before the infusion of betazol. 3. The i.v. infusion of 30 mg/kg b.w. betazol showed in the intact rat stomach a smaller acid dsecretion response than did the dose of 20 mg/kg b.w. In comparison there was a significant higher stimulation with 30 mg/kg b.w. betzaol in the rat after a distal gastrectomy (antrectomy). 4. One s.c. injection of 50 mg/kg b.w. betazol showed a significant acid response of the parietal cells with a duration of at least 7 h on a percentage comparison.

Antral distension in seven healthy subjects had the same inhibitory effect, approximately 20% inhibition, on gastric acid secretion stimulated by pentagastrin and betazole (Histalog). The plasma concentration of neurotensin in peripheral venous blood was unchanged during antral distension in healthy subjects. The plasma concentration of neurotensin in portal blood was also unchanged during antral distension in anaesthetized duodenal ulcer patients and in non-ulcer patients. The inhibition of pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid secretion by balloon distension of the antrum was unchanged by preceding intramuscular injection of metoclopramide. The inhibitory effect of antral distension on gastric acid secretion in healthy subjects does not seem to be mediated by secretin, cholecystokinin, bulbogastrone, neurotensin, or a dopaminergic mechanism.

In Barrett's esophagus the normal stratified squamous epithelium of esophagus is replaced by columnar epithelium and other charcteristics of gastric mucosa. Barrett's esophagus has an increased tendency to bleed and is more prone to undergo malignant change. There are many procedures used to diagnose this entity, but only by serial and multiple esophageal mucosal biopsies can the diagnosis be confirmed. Harper et al (2) demonstrated an early and intense uptake of 99m Tc pertechnetate by the stomach in animals. Since the Barrett's esophagus is lined by gastric mucosa, pertechnetate scintigraphy was used as a screening procedure. The criteria for a postive scan was an area of increased uptake of technetium extending above the normal dense uptake of stomach configuration. Pertechnetate scintigraphy was performed in 4 patients with Barrett's esophagus and 6 controls with only one false negative result. Thus pertechnetate scintigraphy is a rapid, safe, and atraumatic screening procedure.

Gastric acid responses to graded i.v. infusion of pentagastrin and Histalog were determined in peptic ulcer patients. Single-day multiple-dose tests were performed. The sensitivity to the humoral stimuli as determined by the calculated ED50's was not significantly different for duodenal ulcer patients with moderate (DUmod) or massive (DUmass) observed hypersecretion or for gastric ulcer (GU) patients: median ED50's of pentagastrin were 6.2, 6.6, and 13.1 mug/h in 18 DUmod, 22 DUmass and 7 GU patients respectively, and median ED50's of Histalog were 16.6, 25.3, and 17.1 mg/h in 14 DUmod, 10 DUmass and 6 GU patients respectively. Antrum-bulb resection significantly reduced basal acid secretion and maximal acid responses to the humoral stimuli (about 45% reduction) but did not significantly change the loss of gastric contents to the intestine or the sensitivity to the humoral stimuli (median ED50 of pentagastrin increased from 5.2 to 6.7 mug/h in 14 patients, and median ED50 of Histalog increased from 16.0 to 20.8 mg/h in 12 patients), suggesting that the intact antrum-bulb region of the ulcer patient is controlling the capacity to secrete acid, and indicating that antrum-bulb gastrin is an important trophic factor for the parietal cells in man.
