Role of circulating gastrin in colorectal adenomas and carcinomas.

abstract：UNLABELLED:This study examined the role of the gastric mucosal blood flow (MBF) in the gastric cytoprotection produced by prostacyclin (PGI2) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in dogs. An acidified solution of saline was applied topically on the canine gastric mucosa with and without ethanol at various concentrations. Ethano...
