Ref. | Animal model | Alteration on gastrin peptides levels | Hypergastrinemia effects |
Cobb et al[2] | Fabp-wt mice; Fabp-mt mice | Fabp-wt mice express human PG in intestinal mucosa and Fabp-mt mice express a mutated form of human PG; Both mice show PG expression at similar levels as seen in hypergastrinemia | Mice overexpressing human PG (either the wild-type and the mutated form) are more likely to develop colonic tumors in response to AOM |
Wang et al[5] | INS-GAS mice; hGAS mice | INS-GAS mice overexpress human amidated gastrin in the pancreatic islands; hGAS mice overexpress human PG in the liver | Both forms of gastrin showed similar proliferative effects on normal colonic mucosa |
Havu et al[34] | Sprague-Dawley rats treated with ranitidine (2g/kg per day) | Rats showed a 3-fold increase in plasma gastrin levels | 19/100 rats developed ECL carcinoids while no carcinoma was found in control animals |
Watson et al[43] | APCMin+/- mice (model of multiple intestinal neoplasia) treated with omeprazole (75 mg/kg in a single oral dose) | Omeprazole increased only amidated gastrin plasma levels | PPI-induced hypergastrinemia reduced mice survival; Hypergastrinemia increased colonic adenomas proliferation; Hypergastrinemia did not increase the incidence of intestinal tumors |
Ferrand et al[90] | MTI/G-Gly mice; hGAS mice | MTI/G-Gly mice overexpress human G-Gly throughout the gastrointestinal tract; hGAS mice overexpress human PG in the liver | Both G-Gly and PG strongly up-regulate Src, JAK2 and STAT3 activation; PG produced significantly great ERK and Akt pathways activation and TGF-α overexpression |
Koh et al[95] | MTI/G-Gly mice | MTI/G-Gly mice overexpress human G-Gly throughout the gastrointestinal tract | Goblet cells hyperplasia and colonic hyperproliferation; Hypergastrinemia did not increase the incidence of GI tumors, but 3/10 mice developed bronchoalveolar carcinoma |
Ottewell et al[98] | G-/-hg+/+ mice; G-/-hg-/- mice | G-/-hg+/+ mice express human PG and no murine gastrin; G-/-hg-/- mice do not express any forms of gastrin | PG increased colonic proliferation; PG exerts mitotic effects on colonic epithelia but does not seem to affect the small intestine epithelia |
