Abstract

Studies on rat gastric H+-K+-ATPase alpha subunit reveal that H2 receptor activation leads to histamine stimulation of H+-K+-ATPase alpha subunit activity. Famotidine, which enhances gastric pH and serum gastrin, reduces the H2 receptor action. It also reduces the level of H+-K+-ATPase mRNA.
