    Notes: Abstract Gastric irradiation selectively inhibits acid secretion. Histamine may have a role in the inhibitory process. Seven days after gastric irradiation with 9 Gy X-rays, mice underwent a stomach perfusion and secretion test. Under pentagastrin stimulation (62.5 μg/kg), acid and histamine secretion was significantly lower than that of the unirradiated controls, while pepsin and potassium outputs were unchanged. Histamine concentration in the oxyntic region of the stomach assayed after the perfusion test was significantly lower than that of controls. It is postulated that the fall in the endogenous histamine store may contribute to the reduction in acid production.

    Notes: Abstract Oral treatment with the H2-antagonist ICI 162,846 or omeprazole for five days inhibited both basal and pentagastrin stimulated acid secretion by 50% or more in mice. Either treatment increased the luminal secretion of histamine in the basal (12-fold) and stimulated (9-fold) states. Mice treated with the H2-antagonist had a 27% reduction (p〈0.05) in mural histamine in the acid-producing area of the stomach. Mice were treated so as to induce duodenal ulcers (abscopal model) and were then treated with the H2-antagonist ICI 162,846, omeprazole or vehicle, orally for one week. Fewer duodenal ulcers were found in animals receiving drug treatments than in the oral vehicle group. Both the H2-receptor antagonist and the proton pump blocker inhibit acid production; acid blockade by either drug is accompanied by a massive increase in secretion of histamine. This rise was associated with depletion of the gastric histamine store only with H2-receptor blocker. Both means of acid inhibition reduced the formation of ulcers in this model.

    Notes: Abstract In a new model, chronic duodenal ulcers are generated by irradiating the lower mediastinum of mice with single doses of X-rays. Histamine, a potent secretagogue, may have a role in the aetiology. Seven days after irradiation, the lag period for ulcerogenesis, mice were given a gastric perfusion test. In mice given irradiation to the lower mediastinum tissue histamine in the oxyntic region of the stomach assayed after perfusion was significantly lower than that of controls. Acid and peptic activity were not different from controls. Histamine release may mediate the abscopal ulcer without increasing acid and peptic activity.
