Figure 1 False-positive secretin test associated with PPI therapy and subsequent normalization of the test after cessation of PPI. While the patient was on PPI therapy (dashed lines), the serum gastrin levels increased by more than 200 pg/mL in response to secretin injection. After cessation of PPI therapy for 2 weeks (solid lines), the response to the secretin test was normal.

Figure 2 Proposed mechanism of positive secretin stimulation testing in hypochlorhydria/achlorhydria. Under normal physiologic conditions (left), secretin stimulates D-cell expression of somatostatin, resulting in a net decrease in G-cell gastrin secretion. In contrast, in a gastrin-producing tumor (center), no somatostatin-producing D cells are present (denoted by X), and, as a result, secretin stimulates gastrin release without any opposing effects from somatostatin. Similarly, in situations characterized by hypochlorhydria (right), such as chronic atrophic gastritis or the use of potent antisecretory agents (eg, PPIs), the increased intragastric pH decreases somatostatin expression in D cells (denoted by X), disrupting the negative feedback loop governing gastrin release, thereby allowing unopposed secretin-stimulated gastrin release from G cells to yield a false-positive test result.
