“…The relationship of somatostatin to the gut hormones also deserves further investigation. It is of interest that despite the inhibitory effect of somatostatin on gastrin secretion [12], both somatostatin and gastrin [3,6,11] were elevated in the plasma of neonates suggesting that this feed back between somatostatin and gastrin [12] is deficient or set at a different level.…”

“…Consistent with this interpretation of our results in dogs is the lack of correlation between LES intraluminal pressures and serum or plasma gastrin concentrations in human infants. Circulating gastrin levels are greater at birth and in the immediate newborn period than normal adult fasting values and decline as body surface area increases (10,18,27,31); concurrently, LES intraluminal pressure rises (4,13,14,29). The continued increase in pressure gradient after 2 wk in the dog, however, may involve the hormone gastrin as has been postulated by Cohen for the opossum.…”
