Abstract
The total number of antral gastrin cells, the antral surface area and the serum gastrin concentration were determined in two groups of rats. The animals had been submitted at random either to vagotomy and pyloroplasty or to pyloroplasty alone 3 weeks before. The indirect immunoperoxidase reaction and a direct quantitative histological method were used to count the gastrin cells. Radioimmunoassay was used to estimate the serum gastrin concentration. The total number of gastrin cells in the stomach was 52% (pKeywords
