Increased sensitivity of gastric acid secretion to gastrin in cirrhotic patients with portacaval shunt.

We studied acid secretory responses to exogenous pentagastrin and to exogenous and endogenous gastrin in 12 stable cirrhotic subjects with portacaval shunt, 12 unshunted cirrhotics, and 12 normal subjects. Basal and stimulated serum gastrin concentrations as well as basal and maximum acid outputs were similar in the three groups. At low doses of either exogenous pentagastrin or gastrin-17 (G17)...
