    Abstract:
    We examined the effects of cyclic nucleotides and calcium on secretin release from canine duodenal mucosal explants incubated in organ culture media. Time course studies revealed that at pH 7.4, 5 and 10 mM dibutyryl cyclic adenosine monophosphate (DBcAMP) increased secretin release progressively, reaching a peak at 2 hours. Two mM of DBcAMP at pH 7.4 did not increase secretin release but at pH 4.5, all 3 doses potentiated secretin release. DBcAMP-stimulated secretin release was not dependent on the influx of extracellular calcium. Graded doses of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX) did not stimulate secretin secretion but 1 mM IBMX with 2 mM DBcAMP increased secretin secretion significantly. Dibutyryl cyclic guanosine monophosphate, cholera toxin and 5'-guanylyl-imidodiphosphate (GPP(NH)p) did not stimulate basal secretion release. The release of secretin from our explants incubated at pH 7.4 was not due to specific leakage because all of our viability studies revealed that our explants were functionally intact at the end of 2 hours. Our observations suggest that cyclic nucleotides may participate in the intracellular regulation of secretin secretion.
