The effects of dibutyryl cyclic AMP (db-cAMP), dibutyryl cyclic GMP (db-cGMP), betazole hydrochloride (betazole) and acetylcholine (ach.) on pepsinogen secretion from isolated rabbit gastric mucosa were studied using an organ culture system. The 10(-3) M db-cAMP, but not db-cGMP of any concentration, produced a significant enhancement of pepsinogen secretion into the culture medium. In the presence of aminophylline (phosphodiesterase inhibitor), betazole stimulated pepsinogen secretion at concentrations of 10(-8), 10(-6) and 10(-4) M. The 10(-4) M betazole stimulated pepsinogen secretion most strongly (208% of control) and 10(-6) M betazole induced submaximal secretion (137% of control). Ach. stimulated pepsinogen secretion at 10(-8), 10(-6), 10(-4) and 10(-2) M. The peak secretion occurred at 10(-4) M ach. (303% of control). Betazole (with aminophylline) against a background of 10(-6) M ach. (submaximal stimulation dose), produced an intense stimulation of pepsinogen secretion at the concentrations of 10(-8), 10(-6) and 10(-4) M, and the secretion rate expressed as percent of control were 277, 350 and 329%, respectively. These responses were not considered the additive action by betazole and ach. but the potential interaction between the two agents in pepsinogen secretion. From these findings, we conclude that betazole-ach. interdependency exists in in vitro pepsinogen secretion.

Aims: This study aims to assess the serum levels of pepsinogen (PG)I, PG II, and gastrin (G17) in patients with gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) and evaluate their correlation with demographic characteristics.
Methods: A total of 247 normal controls (NC) and 240 patients diagnosed with GIM were enrolled in this study. All participants underwent a gastroscopy procedure followed by pathological examination for diagnosis confirmation.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic potential of serum CXC chemokine ligand 5 (CXCL5) in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) and to establish a prediction model for better diagnosis of CAG.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted, encompassing 570 cases of CAG patients admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, who underwent gastroscopy and received pathologically confirmed diagnoses between June 2018 and June 2023. Additionally, 570 cases without CAG who underwent health checkups were included and classified into the control group.

Hesperidin exhibits promising potential as a feed additive for augmenting gastric acid secretion in animals. Gastrointestinal function is essential for animal growth and the efficient digestion of dietary nutrients, with gastric acid secretion serving as one of its critical components. The secretion of gastric acid, together with other digestive fluids and substances, significantly influences the digestion and absorption of animal feed, which in turn affects growth performance.

GastroPanel (Biohit Oyj; Helsinki, Finland) is an ELISA kit that measures pepsinogen I (PGI); pepsinogen II (PGII); gastrin-17 (G-17); and Helicobacter pylori IgG antibodies (Hp IgG). PGI and the PGI/PGII ratio correlate inversely with the severity of chronic atrophic gastritis (AG).
