When the stomach reaches a certain level of acidity, D-cells release somatostatin, which then suppresses gastrin and the overall production of gastric acid. EC-cells: These cells secrete serotonin.

Studying how these cells are generated can help scientists understand disorders relating to parietal cell dysfunction. These may include disorders linked to the stomach stopping PC production ...

Parietal cells (also called oxyntic cells) are the stomach epithelium cells which secrete gastric acid. Parietal cells produce gastric acid (hydrochloric acid) in response to histamine (via H2 ...

Studying how these cells are generated can help scientists understand conditions in which the stomach stops making PCs, which results in an acid-free stomach that promotes gastric cancer. Or the ...

ERR-gamma 'trains' stomach stem cells to become acid-producing cells Date: May 10, 2024 Source: Baylor College of Medicine Summary: Researchers have identified molecular and genetic pathways that ...

Lab-grown mini-organs are opening up new ways to model biology, diseases and new treatments. Now scientists have created the most advanced stomach organoids so far, composed of three cell types ...

A team led by researchers at Baylor College of Medicine and Washington University School of Medicine has shed light on the ...

Stomach acid, if given the opportunity, would happily digest our own tissues. It’s released by parietal cells that are tucked ...

Dementia is not a single disease but an open-ended term for memory loss and cognitive decline caused by damage to brain cells. PPIs reduce stomach acid by targeting the enzymes in the stomach ...

Common conditions such as indigestion and heartburn as well as peptic ulcers, autoimmune gastritis and stomach and esophageal cancers have one thing in common – they involve disruptions of the normal ...
