[Gastrointestinal hormones and blood circulation in the gastric mucosa].

The gastrointestinal hormones influence gastric mucosal blood flow in different ways. Gastrin, secretin and pancreocymin increase gastric mucosal blood flow, glucagon, vip and somatostatin decrease it. Motilin has a special position. Given alone motilin improves gastric mucosal blood flow, wheras it reduces gastric mucosal blood flow after previous administration of pentagastrin or histamin.
