The purpose of this study was to determine whether selective antagonism of type "A" cholecystokinin (CCK) receptors blocks inhibition of gastric acid secretion produced by CCK and whether this inhibition is mediated through either a somatostatin-dependent pathway or a vago-vagal reflex. Intravenous infusion of CCK (0.04-10 nmol.kg-1.h-1) dose dependently inhibited pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid secretion in urethan-anesthetized rats, with a 50% inhibitory dose of 0.9 nmol.kg-1.h-1 and a maximum inhibition of approximately 50%. Blockade of type A CCK receptors using the selective type A receptor antagonist MK-329 completely reversed the inhibitory effect produced by a maximal dose (4 nmol.kg-1.h-1) of CCK. Immunoneutralization of endogenous somatostatin by administration of somatostatin monoclonal antibody abolished the inhibition produced by CCK. Concentrations of somatostatin in portal venous plasma were significantly increased after CCK administration; the increase in somatostatin was blocked by pretreatment with MK-329. In contrast, CCK-induced inhibition of gastric acid secretion was unaltered after perivagal capsaicin treatment. These results indicate that CCK inhibits gastric acid secretion in rats by activation of type A CCK receptors and through release of endogenous somatostatin.

This study was undertaken to clarify the role of endogenous cholecystokinin (CCK) in induction of pancreatic growth stimulated by a high protein diet. Rats with i.v. jugular cannulae in place and kept in Bollman cages were adapted to 5% casein diet for 9 days and switched to 70% casein for 2 days. MK-329, a CCK receptor antagonist, and SMS 201-995, a somatostatin agonist, were continuously infused at 0.5 mg/kg/h and 5 micrograms/kg/h, respectively, starting at the onset of feeding 70% casein. The 5 and 70% casein control groups were infused with saline. Feeding 70% casein significantly stimulated pancreatic hyperplasia and tissue hypertrophy. MK-329 and SMS 201-995 totally prevented 70% casein-induced increases in pancreatic weight and total RNA and DNA contents. The results indicate that endogenous CCK is the major factor responsible for pancreatic growth induced by a high protein diet.

Intracerebroventricular administration of SMS 201-995 (5 micrograms/rat), a somatostatin analogue, induced barrel rotation in rats. Pretreatment with ceruletide (40 micrograms/100 g b. wt., IP) 3 days or 7 days prior to the injection of SMS 201-995 significantly inhibited the response rate of barrel rotation induced by SMS 201-995, but not that induced by arginine-vasopressin (1 microgram/rat, ICV). The suppressive effect of ceruletide on barrel rotation could be partially countered by MK-329, a selective peripheral CCK (CCK-A) receptor antagonist. Desulfated cerulein did not affect the barrel rotation induced by SMS 201-995. These findings suggest that ceruletide specifically suppresses the barrel rotation evoked by SMS 201-995 in a long-lasting manner possibly acting through CCK-A receptor.

We investigated the effects of somatostatin (SMS)-201-995, atropine, and MK-329 on the role of cholinergic- and cholecystokinin-related systems and on the secretory relationship between five pancreatic digestive enzymes in rats. Animals kept in restraint cages and provided with pancreatic, biliary, duodenal, and jugular vein cannulas were treated as follows: 1) 0.25 micrograms.kg-1.h-1 caerulein alone, 2) both 0.25 micrograms.kg-1.h-1 caerulein and 100 micrograms.kg-1.h-1 atropine, 3) both caerulein and 5 micrograms.kg-1.h-1 SMS, 4) 91.3 micrograms.kg-1.h-1 carbachol alone, 5) both carbachol and 0.5 mg.kg-1.h-1 MK-329, and 6) both carbachol and 5 micrograms.kg-1.h-1 SMS, respectively. Food, but not water, was denied rats starting 10 h before the experiment and throughout the 6-h experimental period. The secretory patterns over the 6-h experimental period showed noticeably independent regulation of pancreatic secretion of individual digestive enzymes. The relationship between paired enzymes significantly varied according to the treatment. The correlation between chymotrypsinogen and the other enzymes was markedly modulated by MK-329. Our results suggest that SMS is a major "gate-keeper" in the regulation of exocrine pancreatic secretion and that the secretion of each digestive enzyme is individually regulated. Furthermore, they suggest that cholecystokinin and acetylcholine and their respective agonists are essentially initiators of secretory processes of the pancreas. Therefore, the paradigms of the regulation of pancreatic secretion heretofore accepted should be reexamined.

This study was designed to examine whether one or both principle molecular forms of somatostatin (SLI), somatostatin-28 (S-28) and somatostatin-14 (S-14), mediate inhibition of stimulated gastric acid by intestinal fat and to determine whether the mode of action includes activation of type A cholecystokinin (CCK) receptors in conscious dogs. SLI molecular forms were separated by gel filtration chromatography after extraction of acidified plasma on octadecyl silyl cartridges and quantified by RIA. Basal plasma levels of S-28 and S-14 were 4.1 +/- 0.6 and 3.6 +/- 0.3 fmol/ml, respectively. Intraduodenal perfusion with a 10% fat emulsion increased plasma S-28 by 6.3 +/- 1.2 fmol/ml (P < 0.01) and S-14 by 17.8 +/- 2.6 fmol/ml (P < 0.001), and suppressed by 76 +/- 3% (P < 0.001) gastrin (150 pmol/kg.h)-stimulated gastric acid. Blockade of type A CCK receptors with MK-329 (75 micrograms/kg, i.v.) abolished S-28 and S-14 responses (both P < 0.001) and completely reversed the inhibitory effect of gastric acid produced by intraduodenal fat. Intravenous infusions of S-14 dose-dependently inhibited gastrin-stimulated secretion with an estimated 50% inhibitory dose of 125 pmol/kg.h that achieved an incremental plasma S-14 rise of 40 +/- 2 fmol/ml; infusions of S-28 at 30 pmol/kg.h increased plasma S-28 by 47 +/- 3 fmol/ml without altering acid output. The SLI antagonist cyclo-[7-aminoheptanoly-Phe-D-Trp-Lys-Thr(BZL)] (CyCam) reversed by 89 +/- 4% (P < 0.001) exogenous S-14-induced inhibition of gastrin-stimulated acid secretion, but did not influence gastric acid output after the infusion of S-28. CyCam also reversed by 139 +/- 9% (P < 0.001) the early phase of fat-induced acid inhibition; in the late phase, CyCam treatment was associated with a further 2-fold elevation of plasma peptide-YY (PYY) to 102 +/- 6 fmol/ml (P < 0.001) and a 75 +/- 5% suppression of gastric acid. Simulation of this plasma PYY increment with infusions of PYY at 50 pmol/kg.h inhibited by 44 +/- 5% gastrin-stimulated acid secretion. These results indicate that in conscious dogs, endogenous CCK mediation of intraintestinal fat-induced inhibition of stimulated acid secretion occurs in part through CCK type A receptor activation of S-14 secretion. Modulation of gastric acid by S-14 includes both inhibition and attenuation of further suppression via counterregulation of PYY secretion.

Intraduodenal fat inhibits gastric acid secretion via the release of one or more hormonal enterogastrones thought to arise from ileocolonic mucosa. This study determined whether glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)-(7-36) amide and peptide YY (PYY), colocalized in L cells found in the ileum, mediate intraduodenal fat-induced inhibition of stimulated gastric acid, and evaluated the influence of cholecystokinin-A (CCK-A) receptor activation. Gastric acid secretion in response to duodenal perfusions of 8% peptone was measured in conscious dogs with gastric and duodenal cannulas. Intraduodenal administration of a 10% fat emulsion suppressed gastric acid secretion by 72 +/- 4% (P < 0.001) and increased plasma levels of GLP-1 and PYY by 44 +/- 5 and 46 +/- 4 fmol/ml, respectively (both P < 0.01). Pretreatment with the CCK-A receptor antagonist MK-329 completely reversed the inhibition of gastric acid by fat, suppressed rises of plasma GLP-1 (maximum change, 23 +/- 4 fmol/ml), and reduced plasma PYY responses to baseline. Intravenous infusions of 50 pmol/kg x h GLP-1 or PYY, which reproduced plasma elevations after intraduodenal fat, inhibited gastric acid secretion by 66 +/- 5% and 51 +/- 6%, respectively (both P < 0.01); coinfusions of GLP-1 and PYY abolished gastric acid secretion (P < 0.001) without influencing plasma gastrin or somatostatin. Pretreatment with 1500 pmol/kg x h of the GLP-1 antagonist exendin-(9-39) amide did not alter the magnitude of inhibition of gastric acid caused by exogenous GLP-1. These results indicate that GLP-1 and PYY released by intraduodenal fat, in part through CCK-dependent pathways, are major enterogastrones in dogs. This inhibitory action occurs independent of circulating concentrations of somatostatin and gastrin and appears to involve a GLP-1 receptor distinct from that mediating incretin effects.

Bombesin or gastrin-releasing peptide prevents gastric injury by an unknown mechanism. Since exogenous gastrin is a gastroprotective agent, this study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that gastroprotection by bombesin involves release of endogenous gastrin. Subcutaneous bombesin (10-100 microg/kg) dose dependently reduced macroscopic injury to the acid-secreting portion of the stomach caused by 1 ml of orogastric acidified ethanol (150 mM hydrochloric acid-50% ethanol). Blockade of type A cholecystokinin receptors with intraperitoneal MK-329 (1 mg/kg) reversed intravenous cholecystokinin (5 nmol/kg)-induced gastroprotection, but not that of bombesin. In contrast, intraperitoneal type B cholecystokinin (gastrin) receptor blockade with L-365,260 (25 mg/kg) diminished the protective actions of both subcutaneous bombesin (100 microg/kg) and intravenous gastrin (25 pmol/kg). In additional studies, subcutaneous bombesin (10-100 microg/kg) dose dependently increased serum gastrin levels (radioimmunoassay). Both the gastroprotective actions of bombesin and bombesin-induced gastrin release were enhanced following immunoneutralization of endogenous somatostatin with intraperitoneal somatostatin antibody (2 mg). These data indicate that bombesin prevents gastric injury primarily by release of endogenous gastrin and both effects are modified by endogenous somatostatin.
