Prostaglandin E2-like activity was determined in peripheral venous blood of control subjects and in patients with acute gastroenteritis and active ulcerative colitis, using a bioassay method. No significant diurnal variations of prostaglandin levels were detected in the control group, while significantly raised venous plasma prostaglandin-like activity was detected in acute gastroenteritis and in active ulcerative colitis.

1 Burimamide injected intravenously in the anaesthetized or conscious cat produced significant increases in gastric acid secretion: in the anaesthetized cat it produced increased gastric mucosal blood flow. 2 Metiamide, in doses which inhibited pentagastrin-stimulated acid secretion, produced no increase in gastric acid secretion in conscious animals, or gastric acid secretion or gastric mucosal blood flow in the anaesthetized cat. 3 Metiamide did not influence the amount of acid which diffused out of the stomach when instilled at pH values between 1.5 and 6.0. 4 The possible mode of action of burimamide in increasing basal gastric secretion is discussed.
