Importance of Gastrin-Releasing Peptide on Acid-Induced Secretin Release and Pancreaticobiliary and Duodenal Bicarbonate Secretion

Abstract

Thus, we conclude that GRP likely plays an insignificant role in a possible peptidergic regulation of acid-induced intestinal secretin release and that GRP has no regulatory function in acid-induced pancreaticobiliary bicarbonate secretion. Furthermore, GRP has no effect on duodenal bicarbonate secretion.
