...E.C. Degli Uberti; G. Trasforini; A.R. Margutti; C.A. Rotola; R. Pansini The possible role of gastrin on TSH, ACTH and cortisol secretion was evaluated by intravenous administration of pentagastrin, the carboxyl-terminal tetrapeptide of gastrin (0.5 µg/kg b.w.) into 12 healthy subjects...

...Adhip P. Nandi Majumdar Antral, duodenal, and serum gastrin levels and colonic thymidine kinase activity were determined in 1- to 4-day-fasted rats and after refeeding of 4-day-fasted rats for 3–24 h. The effect of pentagastrin on colonic thymidine kinase activity was also determined. Total...

...Nandi Majumdar Following four equally spaced injections (at 12-hour intervals) of pentagastrin (250 µg/kg) to fasted rats the incorporation of [ 3 H]-thymidine into gastric mucosal DNA in vivo and in vitro was significantly increased by 30 and 58%, respectively, when compared with the corresponding...

...N. Goltermann; Nandi Majumdar Protein synthesis in gastric mucosa was studied by measuring the incorporation of labeled amino acids into protein by isolated gastric mucosal ribosomes in a cell-free system. In 48-hour fasted rats, administration of the synthetic analogues pentagastrin, tetragastrin...
