Effect of environmental hyperthermia on gastrin, somatostatin and motilin in rat ulcerated antral mucosa.
To study the effect of environmental hyperthermia on gastrin, somatostatin and motilin in rat ulcerated antral mucosa.. Forty-two Wistar rats were equally divided into six groups, according to the room temperature (high and normal) and the treatment (acetic acid, normal saline and no treatment). Levels of gastrin, somatostatin and motilin in rat ulcerated antral mucosa were measured with a radioimmunoassay method.. The average temperature and humidity were 32.5 degrees and 66.7% for the high temperature group, and 21.1 degrees and 49.3% for the normal temperature group, respectively. Gastric ulcer model was successfully induced in rat injected with 0.05 mL acetic acid into the antrum. In rats with gastric ulcers, the levels of gastrin and motilin increased, whereas the somatostatin level declined in antral mucosa, compared with those in rats treated with normal saline and the controls. However, the change extent in the levels of gastrin, motilin and somatostatin in antral mucosa was less in the high temperature group than in the normal temperature group.. The levels of gastrin, somatostatin and motilin in rat ulcerated antral mucosal tissue remain relatively stable in a high temperature environment, which may relate to the equilibration of the dynamic system.

Brain-gut peptides in sauna-induced hyperthermia.
The release of brain-gut peptides during sauna bathing was studied in seven women. All women underwent a 20 min sauna bath. Their sublingual temperature rose from 36.9 +/- 0.1 degrees C to 38.6 +/- 0.2 degrees C (mean +/- SEM). A significant increase in circulating plasma vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) was observed during heat exposure, whereas plasma pancreatic polypeptide (PP), motilin and blood glucose rose and stayed significantly elevated first during the ensuing 60 min (P less than 0.05 in all cases). A similar increase in plasma insulin failed to reach statistical significance, whereas the plasma levels of somatostatin and cholecystokinin (CCK) remained unchanged. It is suggested that the plasma VIP levels are related to compensatory mechanisms during heat exposure with vasodilatation and heat loss.
