Popis: To find out if growth-hormone release- inhibiting hormone (G.H.-R.I.H.) had any direct action on gastric acid production independent of its effect on gastrin release, cyclic G.H.-R.I.H. was infused at a rate of 20 μg. per kg. per hour into dogs with gastric fistulae. Gastric acid output fell sharply in response to three stimuli of acid production—a meal and pentagastrin and histamine infusions. The fact that acid output was inhibited during pentagastrin administration suggests that G.H.-R.I.H. has a direct action on the gastric parietal cell.
