Enterogastrone

Hormone secreted by the small intestine which inhibits the activity of the stomach. Its secretion is stimulated by fat; hence, fat in the diet inhibits gastric activity.


A hormone released in the duodenum, which controls secretions of the stomach.


A hormone from the small intestine (duodenum) that inhibits the secretion of gastric juice by the stomach. It is released when the stomach contents pass into the small intestine.


A hormone derived from the mucosal lining of the small intestine which inhibits the movements and secretion of the stomach.


A hormone such as secretin that is released by the intestinal mucosa and controls the release of food from the stomach into the duodenum by depressing gastric motility and secretion. A fatty meal causes greater secretion of this hormone than a normal meal does.
