The selective failure of intrinsic-factor secretion in the presence of continued acid secretion is of particular interest in view of the recent observation that human parietal cells apparently ...

A study by the Leibniz Institute for Food Systems Biology at the Technical University of Munich shows that less ...

In the stomach, so-called parietal cells are responsible for acid production. They react not only to the body's own messenger molecules, but also to bitter-tasting food constituents such as ...

Staining of Parietal Cells in the Fundic Mucosa of a Patient with Ménétrier's Disease before and after One Month of Treatment with a Monoclonal Antibody against the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor.

These include the parietal cells of the stomach, which secrete protons into the stomach—i.e., produce stomach acid.

There are many types of cells in the stomach that help with the digestion of food. Here are their names, functions, and locations.

Vonoprazan suppresses basal and stimulated gastric acid secretion at the secretory surface of the gastric parietal cell through inhibition of the H +, K + -ATPase enzyme system in a potassium ...

A vagotomy is when you have surgery to remove part of your vagus nerve. Learn about the uses, risks, and side effects for this treatment today.

Using single-cell RNA sequencing, a technique to identify the genes expressed by a cell, the team identified what genes the cells were turning on or off as they became more mature PCs.

Colin Howden, MD, discusses the mechanisms at work in vonoprazan as well as patient monitoring and potential future uses following a recent FDA approval for the treatment of erosive esophagitis.
