La sécrétion de la gastrine est déclenchée par les aliments. Une première voie, qui part d'un réflexe d'origine visuelle ou buccale, emprunte le nerf pneumogastrique agissant par l'intermédiaire de l'acétylcholine. Un autre mécanisme dépend de récepteurs membranaires sensibles à des acides aminés ou à d'autres dérivés alimentaires. 2, record 1, French, - gastrine
