[主题词] D Cells
[英文释义] Cells found throughout the gastrointestinal tract and in the pancreas. They secrete somatostatin in both an endocrine and paracrine manner. Somatostatin inhibits gastrin,cholecystokinin,insulin,glucagon,pancreatic enzymes,and gastric hydrochloric acid. A variety of substances which inhibit gastric acid secretion (vasoactive intestinal peptide,calcitonin gene-related peptide,cholecystokinin,beta-adrenergic agonists,and gastric inhibitory peptide) are thought to act by releasing somatostatin.
