| pubmed-article:785589 | pubmed:abstractText | The effect os somatostatin (0.6 mg/hour) on insulin-stimulated gastrin release and gastric secretion of acid, pepsin, and IF has been examined in 6 unoperated patients with duodenal ulcer. Gastrin release and gastric secretion of acid, pepsin, and IF in response to insulin alone (0.15 IU/kg bw. iv.) were significantly reduced by simultaneous administration of somatostatin. This finding indicates an inhibitory effect of somatostatin on insulin-induced gastrin release and gastrin secretion in addition to the already known effects of somatostatin. | lld:pubmed |
