The present work originated in two independent studies. First, it was decided to investigate the acid secretion in rats in which the histamine content of the gastric mucosa had been strongly reduced by subjecting the animals to inhibition of bistamine formation. It was known that semicarbazide injected in rats fed on a pyridoxine-deficient diet would very greatly diminish both the rate of formation and the content of histamine to a small fraction of normal in various tissues, particularly in the gastric mucosa (Kahlson & Rosengren, 1959; Kahlson, Rosengren & Thunberg, 1963). Under such inhibition it was found that the gastric mucosa secreted normally in response to injections of gastrin. At an early stage of the present work it thus appeared uncertain whether the histamine present in the mucosa was essential for the excitation of acid secretion. Concurrently experiments were done to investigate whether the phenomenon of increased mitotic index of certain gastric mucosal cells of rats on re-feeding, which was noted by Hunt (1957), would be accompanied by a corresponding increase in the level of histidine decarboxylase. This search was considered of interest since a correlation between cell renewal and level of histidine decarboxylase activity (Histamine-Forming Capacity, HFC), had been found in various tissues (for references see Kahlson, Rosengren & Steinhardt, 1963). In the course of this investigation it was found that re-feeding as well as injection of purified gastrin evoked an elevation of HFC of the parietal cell-carrying mucosa (corpus) to many times the fasting level. Even the small fraction of histidine decarboxylase activity persisting after inhibition of histamine formation was found to be similarly elevated by feeding or gastrin. With this latter discovery it was decided to confine the study mainly to experiments on the part played by mucosal HFC in inciting acid secretion. A preliminary communication of some of these observations has been given to the Physiological Society (Kahlson, Rosengren, Svahn & Thunberg, 1963).
