Abstract
Conclusions
1. The gastric secretory response to a standard dose of histamine in dogs with a totally isolated stomach pouch is markedly reduced by bilateral vagotomy.
2. Atropine similarly reduces the gastric secretory response to histamine in these animals.
3. Gastric vagotomy in patients with peptic ulcer also markedly reduces the gastric secretory response to a standard dose of histamine.
