  • Title: Mediation of trypsin inhibitor-induced pancreatic hypersecretion by secretin and cholecystokinin in rats.
    Author: Watanabe S, Takeuchi T, Chey WY.
    Journal: Gastroenterology; 1992 Feb; 102(2):621-8. PubMed ID: 1732130.
    Abstract:
    We investigated a hormonal mechanism in a trypsin inhibitor-induced pancreatic hypersecretion in rats. Intraduodenal administration of a synthetic trypsin inhibitor, camostat, resulted in significant increases in plasma concentration of both secretin and cholecystokinin in a dose-related manner that paralleled a significant increase in exocrine pancreatic secretion. To eliminate the effect of circulating secretin in rats, a rabbit antisecretin serum was given IV that resulted in a 77% reduction in bicarbonate secretion stimulated by intraduodenal camostat. A cholecystokinin receptor antagonist, MK-329, also inhibited significantly the camostat-induced increase in pancreatic secretion; volume and bicarbonate output were reduced by 35% each and amylase output by 73%. The combined administration of antisecretin serum and MK-329 completely abolished the pancreatic exocrine secretion stimulated by camostat. These observations indicate that the camostat-stimulated pancreatic exocrine secretion is mediated by the increased release of both secretin and cholecystokinin in rats.
