Secretion of hydrochloric acid of frog gastric mucosa in vitro was studied as affected by some sterols of the cholesterol series. This effect is found to depend on both the sterol molecule structure and the substance concentration. 7-dehydrocholesterol and its products of oxidation are supposed to have a specific effect on the process of hydrochloric acid secretion. Possible mechanism of this effect is under discussion.
