“…Some of the studies with histamine H 2 -receptor antagonists show a correlation between the increase in serum gastrin and the development of tolerance to acid inhibition. 21,22 Since this effect occurs after only a few days with histamine H 2 -receptor antagonists, 18,21 an increase of the G-cell mass is clearly not necessary for the development of tolerance. It is presently unknown whether G-cell hyperplasia is part of this process during long-term acid inhibition.…”

“…Recent experiments at the Royal Free Hospital have shown that the phenomenon of nocturnal hyperacidity exists for only six days after 25 days of dosing with ranitidine 300 mg at night -from days [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] …”

“…This type of experiment pro vides the opportunity to generate a large amount of data with quite remarkable repro ducibility -in triplicate studies in 8 subjects who were studied on three occasions -on the 1st, 8th and 15th days of dosing with placebo there were no significant differences between the median values and 24-hour integrated intragastric acidity for the three studies: 861, 885 and 1,028 mmol h/1, respectively (0.3 < p < 0.5). The median 24-hour intragastric plasma gastrin concentrations for the three studies were also not significantly different: 196, 209 and 198 pmol h/1, respectively; 0.95 < p < 0.98) [12], The key to success for this type of largescale experiment is detailed planning before hand, together with an enthusiastic and welltrained team of investigators. In this regard, we have always been extremely lucky to re ceive help from the clinical medical students from the Royal Free Hospital School of Medicine.…”
