  • Title: Neurohormonal regulation of secretin secretion in canine duodenal mucosa in vitro.
    Author: Murthy SN, Lavy A, Morgantini DS, Chey WY.
    Journal: Peptides; 1986; 7 Suppl 1():229-36. PubMed ID: 2875446.
    Abstract:
    We examined the effects of cholinergic, peptidergic and GABAergic agents on secretin secretion from canine duodenal mucosal explants incubated in organ culture media. Carbachol (10(-12) to 10(-4) M), atropine (10(-6) to 10(-4) M), hexamethonium (10(-6) to 10(-4) M), and somatostatin did not alter basal secretion of secretin. Somatostatin (10(-7) to 10(-8) M) inhibited secretin secretion stimulated by pH 4.5. Met, Leu and their D-ala2-analogs inhibited both basal and pH 4.5-stimulated secretin. Naloxone reversed the inhibition caused by met-enkephalin at pH 7.4. GABA (10(-9) to 10(-6) M) stimulated both basal and pH 4.5-stimulated secretin secretion. GABA-stimulated secretin secretion was neuronal in nature, bicuculline sensitive and was mediated via post ganglionic cholinergic neurons. GABA-stimulated secretin secretion was inhibited by both somatostatin and metenkephalin, suggesting that GABA-stimulated secretin secretion may be under the inhibitory control of peptidergic agents as well.
