Gastrin has been implicated in islet growth/neogenesis, and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have been shown to increase endogenous gastrin levels in animals and humans. Therefore, we investigated the effect of PPIs in a model of type 2 diabetes, Psammomys obesus.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the main obstacle that limits the use of cisplatin in cancer treatment. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), the most commonly used class of medications for gastrointestinal complications in cancer patients, have been reported to cause adverse
Lansoprazole is an effective acid pump inhibitor acting at the final enzymatic step of the acid secretory pathway of the parietal cell, decreasing gastric acid secretion regardless of the primary stimulus. Results of short term (less than 8 weeks) clinical

Cytochrome P450 (CYP) is a class of heme-containing enzymes which mainly catalyze a monooxygenation reaction of various chemicals, and hence CYP plays a key role in the drug metabolism. Although CYP2C19 isoform is a minor hepatic CYP, it metabolizes clinically
Higher body mass index (BMI) is a recognised risk factor for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Data regarding the impact of BMI on proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy are conflicting. To assess the impact of BMI on baseline heartburn symptom severity
