Gastrin and Colon Cancer: A Unifying Hypothesis

Joshi, Shobha N., Gardner, Jerry D.·2008·Digestive Diseases

Abstract

Recently, a variety of studies in vivo as well as in vitro have demonstrated that gastrointestinal hormones can influence the rate of proliferation of neoplastic cells. The widespread use of omeprazole, which increases serum gastrin, coupled with the findings that omeprazole causes gastric carcinoid tumors in rats and that a significant number of patients with adenocarcinoma of the colon have increased serum gastrin have focussed attention on the relationship between gastrin and colon cancer. In the present paper, we have reviewed the experimental findings in humans, experimental animals, and colon cancer cells in tissue culture that bear on the possible relationships between gastrin and colon cancer. Based on these findings, we have proposed two hypotheses that can account for the increased serum gastrin that occurs in some patients with colon cancer.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
