Greenberg GR, McCloy RF, Baron JH, Bryant MG, Bloom SRet al., 1982, Gastric acid regulates the release of plasma secretin in man., Eur J Clin Invest, Vol: 12, Pages: 361-372, ISSN: 0014-2972

Fasting plasma secretin determined in nine healthy subjects, twelve patients with active duodenal ulcer and four with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome were 3.2 +/- 0.4, 5.1 +/- 1.2 and 20.3 +/- 1.3 pmol/l respectively (mean +/- SEM). Cimetidine significantly (P less than 0.05) reduced levels in those with duodenal ulcer, as did gastric aspiration in the Zollinger-Ellison group. A significant correlation (P less than 0.001) was found between basal acid output and mean fasting plasma secretin. After a solid meal and subsequent liquid soft drink, no sustained mean rise in plasma secretin was observed; changes in secretin appeared to coincide in time with rapid falls in duodenal pH, though little relationship could be established between the absolute level of pH and changes in plasma secretin. The mean peak post-prandial rise in plasma secretin observed after solids was significantly (P less than 0.05) greater in duodenal ulcer patients than controls (9.1 +/- 1.1 versus 6.7 +/- 0.5 pmol/l) as was the mean integrated post-prandial release (1002 +/- 110 versus 710 +/- 67 pmol min-1 1(-1)). Cimetidine reduced both rises (P less than 0.05) and was associated with significantly less duodenal pH readings below 4 (P less than 0.001). These results suggest that gastric acid is a major release mechanism for plasma secretin both fasting and after meals but it is likely the acid load rather than absolute pH in the duodenum which determines circulating levels.

Hall GM, Adrian TE, Bloom SR, Lucke JNet al., 1982, Changes in circulating gut hormones in the horse during long distance exercise., Equine Vet J, Vol: 14, Pages: 209-212, ISSN: 0425-1644

Venous blood samples were collected before and immediately after an 80 km ride and a 42 km race. They were analysed for blood glucose and lactate, and for plasma non-esterified fatty acids, insulin, pancreatic glucagon, pancreatic polypeptide, gastrin, gastric inhibitory peptide, somatostatin and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide concentrations. The 80 km ride was associated with marked hypoglycaemia and a slight lactic acidaemia together with an increase in plasma glucagon, somatostatin, pancreatic polypeptide and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide values. The 42 km race produced hyperglycaemia and marked lactic acidaemia together with an increase in plasma glucagon, somatostatin and vasoactive intestinal polypeptide. The increase in these peptides is not related to alterations in blood glucose or the relative contributions of aerobic and anaerobic muscle metabolism. It is suggested that the changes in circulating gut peptides are part of the endocrine response to exercise and the possible physiological role of these changes is discussed.
