Experimental studies located carbonic anhydrase (CA) in the parietal cells close to secretory canaliculi, in superficial epithelial cells and gastric microvasculature. The role of CA is CO2 hydration resulting H+ for acid secretion and conversion of OH into HCO3-. Our studies showed that the physiological secretagogue histamine, acetylcholine and gastrin are all CA activators, achieving potentiating interactions.
