Effect of rioprostil, a synthetic prostaglandin E1 on meal-stimulated gastric acid secretion and plasma gastrin levels in humans.

abstract：:The surface epithelial cells of the gastroduodenal mucosa are thought to be protected from the damaging effects of acid by a covering layer of mucus into which is secreted bicarbonate. It is proposed here that mucus acts as a true barrier to hydrogen ion diffusion, and that the role played by bicarbonate is to adjust ...
