So I have a question about one part in feralis notes in the subcategory of stomach cells:

i. Affected by: A-chol increases secretion of all cell types, gastrin and histamine increase HCl secretion

When it's stated a-chol increases secretions, does A-chol refer to acetylcholine?

Yes, A-chol does refer to acetylcholine.

Cool thanks. Though I can't find anything on google about acetylcholine affecting those cells and secretion : \
