  • Title: The effect of CCKB/gastrin antagonists on stimulated gastric acid secretion in the anaesthetized rat.
    Author: Hayward NJ, Harding M, Lloyd SA, McKnight AT, Hughes J, Woodruff GN.
    Journal: Br J Pharmacol; 1991 Dec; 104(4):973-7. PubMed ID: 1687371.
    Abstract:
    1. The urethane-anaesthetized, vagotomised rat preparation was used to investigate the effects of the histamine H2-antagonist ranitidine, the proton pump inhibitor omeprazole and the CCKB/gastrin antagonists CI-988, PD 136450 and L-365,260 on pentagastrin-, histamine- and bethanechol-induced gastric acid secretion. 2. The novel CCKB/gastrin antagonists CI-988 and PD 136450, and L-365,260 dose-dependently inhibited pentagastrin-induced secretion. The ED50 value for PD 136450 was 0.05 mumol kg-1, the same following intravenous or subcutaneous administration. 3. CI-988 and PD 136450 administered subcutaneously at dose levels highly effective for antagonism of pentagastrin responses had no effect on basal acid secretion. 4. Ranitidine inhibited pentagastrin-, bethanechol-, and histamine-induced acid secretion, whereas the CCKB/gastrin antagonists inhibited only the secretory response to pentagastrin. 5. The selective CCKA antagonist, devazepide, was inactive at up to 300 mumol kg-1 i.p. against the three stimulants of acid secretion. 6. CI-988 and PD 136450 will be useful research tools with which to investigate the role of CCKB/gastrin receptors in gastric acid secretion and the trophic activities of gastrin and cholecystokinin (CCK) on the gastrointestinal tract.
