• Secretin - It is secreted in the upper lining of the stomach and also released in the pancreas. These are responsible for the secretion in the stomach and pancreas and regulates acidity.
  
• Cholecystokinin - It is produced by the lining of the wall of the stomach and stimulates the gall bladder to release bile. It induces the production of digestive enzymes in the pancreas through pancreatic juice.
  
• Gastrin - It is produced by gastrin cells which helps in the secretion of gastric juices in the stomach and pancreas.
