Endocannabinoid regulation of gastric vagal afferent signalling
Background: Gastric vagal afferents (GVAs) play a role in peripheral appetite control. Tension sensitive GVAs respond to stretch or distension of the stomach sending signals to the hindbrain to produce feelings of fullness and satiety. The sensitivity of tension sensitive GVAs is reduced in …

Gastric remnant carcinoma : histochemical and immunohistochemical profile
Gastric remnant carcinoma (GRC) is a gastric cancer that develops in gastric remnant more than five years after resection for benign disease. GRC comprises 1 %-9% of all gastric cancers. Partial gastrectomy for peptic ulcer is thought to be a risk factor for GRC. Pancreato-duodenal and bile reflux …

Central Stimulation of the Vagi and Gastric Secretion
That gastric secretion may be centrally stimulated was first shown by Pavlov in 1890 (1). After first conditioning his animals to the environment of the laboratory, he was able to elicit a definite secretory response, high in acid and pepsin concentration, by sham-feeding a mixture of meat and …
