DNA content of tissues from rats injected with saline or pentagastrin (250 μg/kg) expressed as percent of control (NaCl). Stimulation was significant (P < 0.001) for oxyntic gland, duodenal, and colonic mucosa. Bars are means ± SE of observations in 18 rats in each group.

Figure 2. Figure 2.

Time course of DNA synthesis in LoVo cells after exposure to 7.2 × 10−10 M gastrin‐17 and in cells incubated in medium not containing gastrin. Cells were released from synchronization and exposed to gastrin at time 0. Each point is mean ± SE of 8 observations. *P < 0.02 compared with same time point in absence of gastrin. Inset: gastrin stimulation as percent of control.

Correlation of serum gastrin levels and gastrin binding capacities from 8 groups of rats. Serum gastrin levels were lowered by antrectomy, fasting, or liquid diets. Vagotomy and re‐feeding fasted rats raised serum gastrin. Each point is mean ± SE of 6 observations.
