Effects of synthetic rat pancreastatin C-terminal fragment on both exocrine and endocrine pancreatic functions were examined in rats, in vivo and in vitro. Pancreastatin (20, 100 pmol, 1 nmol/kg/h) significantly inhibited CCK-8-stimulated pancreatic juice flow and protein output in a dose-related manner, in vivo. The inhibitory effect on bicarbonate output was not statistically significant. Pancreastatin did not significantly inhibit basal pancreatic secretions in vivo, and did not inhibit amylase release from the dispersed acini, in vitro. Insulin release stimulated by intragastric administration of glucose (5 g/kg) was significantly inhibited by pancreastatin (1 nmol/kg/h), in vivo. Plasma glucose concentrations were increased by pancreastatin infusion, but the increase was not statistically significant. Furthermore, pancreastatin inhibited insulin release from isolated islets, in vitro. Synthetic rat C-terminal pancreastatin fragment has bioactivities on both exocrine and endocrine pancreatic functions in rats.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).

D007515 Islets of Langerhans Irregular microscopic structures consisting of cords of endocrine cells that are scattered throughout the PANCREAS among the exocrine acini. Each islet is surrounded by connective tissue fibers and penetrated by a network of capillaries. There are four major cell types. The most abundant beta cells (50-80%) secrete INSULIN. Alpha cells (5-20%) secrete GLUCAGON. PP cells (10-35%) secrete PANCREATIC POLYPEPTIDE. Delta cells (~5%) secrete SOMATOSTATIN.

D008297 Male Males
D010179 Pancreas A nodular organ in the ABDOMEN that contains a mixture of ENDOCRINE GLANDS and EXOCRINE GLANDS. The small endocrine portion consists of the ISLETS OF LANGERHANS secreting a number of hormones into the blood stream. The large exocrine portion (EXOCRINE PANCREAS) is a compound acinar gland that secretes several digestive enzymes into the pancreatic ductal system that empties into the DUODENUM.
D010187 Pancreatic Hormones Peptide hormones secreted into the blood by cells in the ISLETS OF LANGERHANS of the pancreas. The alpha cells secrete glucagon; the beta cells secrete insulin; the delta cells secrete somatostatin; and the PP cells secrete pancreatic polypeptide. Hormones, Pancreatic
