What's the difference between pepsinogen and stomach?

Pepsinogen


Definition:

  • (n.) The antecedent of the ferment pepsin. A substance contained in the form of granules in the peptic cells of the gastric glands. It is readily convertible into pepsin. Also called propepsin.

  • (19) MMI-stimulated pepsinogen secretion could be dissociated from the acid secretion by the use of cimetidine and omeprazole which effectively block the acid secretion without affecting the pepsinogen output.
  • (20) For the native zymogen the rate of this conversion had been shown to be identical to the rate of cleavage of the scissile bond of pepsinogen.

Stomach


Definition:

  • (n.) An enlargement, or series of enlargements, in the anterior part of the alimentary canal, in which food is digested; any cavity in which digestion takes place in an animal; a digestive cavity. See Digestion, and Gastric juice, under Gastric.
  • (n.) The desire for food caused by hunger; appetite; as, a good stomach for roast beef.
  • (n.) Hence appetite in general; inclination; desire.
  • (n.) Violence of temper; anger; sullenness; resentment; willful obstinacy; stubbornness.
  • (n.) Pride; haughtiness; arrogance.

  • (v. t.) To bear without repugnance; to brook.
  • (v. i.) To be angry.

Example Sentences:

  • (3) The authors conclude that H. pylori alone causes little or no effect on an intact gastric mucosa in the rat, that either intact organisms or bacteria-free filtrates cause similar prolongation and delayed healing of pre-existing ulcers with active chronic inflammation, and that the presence of predisposing factors leading to disruption of gastric mucosal integrity may be required for the H. pylori enhancement of inflammation and tissue damage in the stomach.
  • (4) The following possible explanations were discussed: a) the tested psychotropic drugs block prostaglandin receptors in the stomach; b) the test substances react with prostaglandin in the nutritive solution; c) the substances stimulate metabolic processes in the stomach wall that break down prostaglandin.
  • (5) It was considered worthwhile to report this case due to the problems which arose concerning the choice of a thoracic rather than abdominal route owing to the impossibility of associating cardiomyotomy with anti-reflux plastica surgery because of the reduced dimensions of the stomach.
