When is gastrin released
Surgery is the only curative therapy for gastrinomas. It is recommended in patients with non-metastatic sporadic gastrinomas or MEN1-associated gastrinomas greater than 2 cm in diameter. Surgery is not recommended in MEN1 associated gastrinomas less than 2cm in diameter as surgery is rarely curative in the presence of MEN1. Non-surgical therapy for ZES is based on treating symptoms and the prevention of complications secondary to peptic ulcers. Proton pump inhibitors PPI are first-line medical therapy.
They directly decrease the secretion of gastric acid into the stomach, thus reducing the ability of the gastric acid to overwhelm the mucosal defenses and prevent the occurrence of peptic ulcers. In an initial prospective study of patients with gastrinoma refractive to H2 blocker therapy, symptoms were resolved in 23 of the 29 total patients. Due to the high success in managing these patients with PPIs, surgery is no longer required to manage hypersecretion of gastric acid.
Management and therapy for the gastrin-related disease, as with most areas of medicine, requires a team-based, interprofessional approach. Hypergastrinemia secondary to Helicobacter pylori infections may be managed via infectious disease treatment, not requiring an endocrine specialist or surgical intervention.
Conversely, a patient with gastrinoma ZES must be managed by a coordinated team of endocrinologists, gastroenterologists, radiologists, and surgeons. Determining the cause of hypergastrinemia is also a team approach, requiring primary care, gastroenterologists, endocrinologists, pathologists, among others.

Dental pulp and periodontium. It is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor family. The primary stimulus for secretion of gastrin is the presence of certain foodstuffs, especially peptides, certain amino acids and calcium, in the gastric lumen. Also, as yet unidentified compounds in coffee, wine and beer are potent stimulants for gastrin secretion.
Secretion of this hormone is inhibited when the lumenal pH of the stomach becomes very low less than about 3. In addition to parietal and ECL cell targets, gastrin also stimulates pancreatic acinar cells via binding to cholecystokinin receptors, and gastrin receptors have been demonstratede on certain populations of gastric smooth muscle cells, supporting pharmacologic studies that demonstrate a role for gastrin in regulating gastric motility.
As blood levels of gastrin rise, the stomach releases acid gastric acid that helps break down and digest food. When enough gastric acid has been produced by the stomach, gastrin levels in the blood drop. Gastrin also has minor effects on the pancreas , liver , and intestines. Gastrin helps the pancreas produce enzymes for digestion and helps the liver produce bile. It also stimulates the intestines to help move food through the digestive tract. Sometimes a test for gastrin is done after eating a high-protein diet or after receiving an injection of the digestive hormone secretin into a vein.
This is called an intravenous secretin test. Be sure to tell your doctor about all the nonprescription and prescription medicines you take. Be sure to mention any acid-reducing medicines you take, such as Pepcid famotidine , Prilosec omeprazole , Rolaids, or Tums. You may need to stop taking some medicines before this test. Stress can affect gastrin levels. So you may be asked to rest quietly for 30 minutes before the blood sample is drawn. For a secretin test, a blood sample is taken. Then the digestive hormone secretin is injected into a vein in your arm.
More blood samples are taken at the time of the injection, and then every 5 minutes until 15 minutes have passed. And then another sample is taken at 30 minutes after the secretin injection. When a blood sample is taken, you may feel nothing at all from the needle. Or you might feel a quick sting or pinch.
There is very little chance of having a problem from this test. When a blood sample is taken, a small bruise may form at the site. Each lab has a different range for what's normal.
