"pH" for Parietal cells secrete H+ ions.
Parietal cells are also known as oxyntic cells.
"PC" for Pepsin is secreted by Chief cells.
(Chief cells are also known as peptic cells or zymogen cells.)
Alternate mnemonic: I think of master chef making food rich in proteins, peptides being degraded by pepsin and that's how I remember the association that Chief cells secrete Pepsin.
G for G cells & G for Gastrin. (Hah! That was easy!)
S for S cells & S for Secretin! (Medicine is easy!)
