    Notes: Abstract The possibility of the involvement of pancreatic polypeptide (PP) release in luminal feedback regulation in the conscious rat was examined. Pancreatic secretion in the intestinal phase in the rat is regulated by negative feedback control so that a decrease in luminal protease activities produced by a diversion of bile-pancreatic juice (BPJ) from the intestine stimulates pancreatic secretion. Plasma concentration of rat PP and the effect of exogenous infusion of rat PP on pancreatic secretions during BPJ diversion were determined. Plasma PP concentration significantly increased with BPJ diversion and peaked at 90 min after BPJ diversion began, almost paralleling changes in protein output. Exogenous PP infusion (1, 2, and 10 Μg/kg/hr) inhibited pancreatic protein and fluid outputs but not the bicarbonate output during BPJ diversion. PP was shown to be physiologically released in the intestinal phase of pancreatic secretion; however, the physiological role of endogenous PP remains unknown.

    Notes: Abstract The changes in plasma and duodenal cholecystokinin (CCK) concentrations after pancreatic duct occlusion were examined in rats. The rats were sacrificed 1, 3, 7, 10, 14, and 30 days after occlusion of the duct. Histological examination showed acute inflammation on days 1 and 3 after duct occlusion, interstitial fibrosis and regenerative changes on days 7, 10, and 14, and pancreatic atrophy on day 30. The plasma CCK concentration increased from 0.45 pM to 2.0 pM after the occlusion and then remained high throughout the observation period. In contrast to the stable increase in plasma CCK concentration, the CCK content in the duodenum increased on days 1 and 3, decreased on day 7, increased on day 10, reaching over the control level on day 14, and then returned to the control level on day 30. Administration of boiled and 10-fold concentrated rat pancreatic juice or human pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor for seven days after pancreatic duct occlusion reversed the decrease in duodenal CCK content. The major molecular forms of duodenal CCK were CCK-8, -33, and -58. These results indicate that (1) basal plasma CCK concentration did not reflect the duodenal CCK content, (2) duodenal CCK content was well correlated with a decrease in inflammation in the pancreas, and (3) a nonenzymatic component in the pancreatic juice reversed the decrease in duodenal CCK content and body weight caused by pancreatic duct occlusion.

    Notes: Abstract Pancreatic exocrine secretion in conscious rats is regulated by intraluminal bile and/or pancreatic juice. Exclusion of bile and/or pancreatic juice from the intestinal lumen caused cholecystokinin (CCK) release and stimulated pancreatic secretion. CCK in the plasma is mainly derived from endocrine cells in the proximal small intestinal mucosa. We examined the changes in CCK concentrations in the intestinal mucosa and compared them to those of plasma CCK concentrations and the changes of luminal trypsin activities after bile and/or pancreatic juice diversion in conscious rats. Rats with bile and pancreatic fistulae were used. Each treatment of bile, pancreatic juice, and bile-pancreatic juice diversion decreased luminal trypsin activity and increased plasma and intestinal CCK concentrations. The potency of the stimulatory effect on plasma and intestinal CCK concentrations was bilepancreatic juice diversion〉pancreatic juice diversion≧bile diversion. Neither plasma CCK concentration nor intestinal CCK concentration was in inverse proportion to trypsin activity. The plasma CCK concentration did not parallel intestinal CCK concentration. Intravenous infusion of CCK-8 (300 pmol/kg/hr) did not increase CCK concentration in the intestinal mucosa. It was proposed that bile and/or pancreatic juice in the intestinal lumen regulated CCK concentrations not only in the plasma but also in the intestinal mucosa.

    Notes: Abstract Basal pancreatic exocrine functions as well as responses to endogenous (BPJ diversion) and exogenous (injection of CCK-8 or secretin) stimulations were examined in young (6- and 12-month-old) and old (24- to 26-month old) female Fischer 344 rats. Basal secretions were not significantly different between young and old rats. BPJ diversion significantly stimulated pancreatic secretions of fluid, bicarbonate, and protein in all animals. The pancreatic protein response (mg/kg/hr) to BPJ diversion was significantly attenuated with respect to age [57.59±16.16, 43.73±6.94, and 20.75±3.95, for 6-, 12-, 24- to 26- month-old rats, respectively, mean ±se, F(2,20)=3.49, P 〈 0.05]. The pancreatic responses to secretin (0.086, 0.432, and 1.728 nmol/kg) were not significantly different between young and old rats. Intravenous injection of CCK-8 (0.033, 0.167, and 0.667 nmol/kg) produced a significant increase in protein output in all age groups. In young animals, stepwise increases in protein output were observed, whereas, in old rats, increments in response to the larger two doses of CCK-8 (0.167 and 0.667 nmol) were smaller than that produced by 0.033 nmol/kg of CCK-8. In conclusion, the basal secretions in old rats were comparable with those in young ones, but the reserve capacity for protein secretion appears to decrease in old compared to young rats.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of intraluminal bile on cholecystokinin release and pancreatic exocrine secretion were studied in conscious rats. Since it has been suggested that bile acid may influence pancreatic secretion indirectly by interacting with luminal protease activities, intraduodenal protease activities were eliminated by pancreatic juice diversion accompanied with simultaneous intraduodenal infusion of aprotinin. This treatment resulted in gradual increases in pancreatic juice flow, bicarbonate and protein outputs, and an increase in plasma cholecystokinin levels, reaching plateau levels 2 hr after the start of the treatment. When endogenous bile was excluded from the intestine, the pancreatic secretion and plasma cholecystokinin concentrations further increased. The intraduodenal infusion of sodium taurocholate during bile pancreatic juice diversion inhibited cholecystokinin release, while pancreatic protein output was only transiently decreased. The results indicate that bile in the duodenum directly regulates cholecystokinin release, probably through its major components, bile salts.

    Notes: Abstract A bioassay using dispersed pancreatic acini was used to measure fasting plasma cholecystokinin (CCK) concentrations in 105 patients with various kinds of gastrointestinal diseases, 17 patients with diabetes mellitus, and 6 healthy voluntters. High plasma CCK bioactivities were observed in patients with obstructive jaundice, choledocolithiasis, and primary biliary cirrhosis. Twenty-three samples with high CCK bioactivities were assayed by the same bioassay after the addition of a specific CCK antagonist and by a CCK radioimmunoassay in order to determine whether the high CCK-like bioactivity was due to circulating CCK or other factors. High CCK bioactivities were partially inhibited by the specific CCK antagonist, CR-1409, but the activities were not totally abolished. The residual bioactivities (not inhibited by CR-1409) correlated with plasma bile acid concentrations. The inhibitable CCK bioactivities correlated with plasma CCK levels obtained by radioimmunoassay. Although the bioassay using dispersed pancreatic acini has several advantages for measuring plasma CCK, this method overestimates CCK bioactivities in patients with high plasma bile acid concentrations.
