| | GASTRIN interpretation. |
| | Levels of 100 - 800 pg/ml are found in about 15% of patients aged >60 years This may be due to sub clinical achlorhydria as a consequence of gastric atrophy. | | | Constantly increased gastrin levels (>500 pg/ml) with little or no stimulation after a meal are found in patients with gastrinomas. | | | Physiologically appropriate increases in basal gastrin secretion occur secondary to a variety of conditions which reduce gastric acidity eg. |

| | Gastrin |
| | Promotion of gastric mucosal growth: Gastrin clearly has the ability to stimulate many aspects of mucosal development and growth in the stomach. | | | The five C-terminal amino acids of gastrin and cholecystokinin are identical, which explains their overlapping biological effects. | | | Treatment with gastrin stimulates DNA, RNA and protein synthesis in gastric mucosa and increases the number of parietal cellsAnother observation supporting this function is that humans with hypergastrinemia (abnormally high blood levels of gastrin) consistently show gastric mucosal hypertrophy. |
