Parietal cell secretory function may be inhibited by three mechanisms. (1) Receptors for gastrin, histamine and acetylcholine are present on the canine parietal cell, and parietal cell function may be directly inhibited by specific antagonists for each of these receptors. (2) Receptor activation of parietal cell function is mediated by cyclic AMP-dependent (histamine) and calcium-dependent (cholinergic agents and gastrin) mechanisms. The antisecretory action of prostaglandins reflect interference with histamine activation of adenylate cyclase. The current generations of calcium channel blockers have only weak antisecretory actions in vivo and are unlikely to be useful in clinical practice. (3) A third mechanism of inhibition is blockade of H+/K(+)-ATPase by substituted benzimidazoles, such as omeprazole. Each of these three mechanism provides modalities of potential clinical usefulness for treating acid-peptic disease. Gastrin and acetylcholine receptors are present on other fundic cells, in addition to the parietal cell. These other cells include the somatostatin cell in the dog fundic mucosa and the histamine-containing enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cell present in the fundic mucosa of several species. The relative impact of these receptors on different cell types on the regulation of acid secretion remains uncertain, and is probably variable among different species. One gastrin receptor of considerable importance is the gastrin receptor that exerts a trophic effect on the ECL cell in the fundic mucosa. Sustained hypergastrinaemia in response to profound hypochlorhydria is associated with hyperplasia of this cell type; the elucidation of the conditions that promote this hyperplasia and the clinical consequences of this association are pressing challenges.
