The effects of the C-terminal fragment of rat pancreastatin on exocrine pancreatic secretions induced by several neural stimulations [IV injection of 75 or 15 mg/kg of 2-deoxy-D-glucose (central vagal nerve stimulation), injection of 2 mg of cisapride (proposed to elicit acetylcholine release from cholinergic nerve ending), and infusion of 1 or 3 mg.kg-1.h-1 of bethanechol (direct stimulation of acinar cells)] were examined in conscious rats. Rats with external bile and pancreatic fistulae were used. All the stimulations caused significant increases in pancreatic exocrine secretions. Pancreastatin at 100 pmol.kg-1.h-1 inhibited pancreatic secretions stimulated by IV injection of 2-deoxy-D-glucose but not those induced by the infusion of bethanechol or the injection of cisapride. Because these findings showed that pancreastatin inhibited pancreatic secretions induced by central vagal nerve stimulation, the effect of pancreastatin on cholecystokinin-stimulated pancreatic secretions in vagotomized rats was examined. Pancreastatin at 100 pmol.kg-1.h-1 did not inhibit pancreatic secretions stimulated by cholecystokinin octapeptide at 100 pmol.kg-1.h-1 in conscious rats after bilateral truncal vagotomy. These results suggest that pancreastatin inhibits pancreatic exocrine secretions by inhibiting vagal efferent nerve activity.

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

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D002766 Cholecystokinin A peptide, of about 33 amino acids, secreted by the upper INTESTINAL MUCOSA and also found in the central nervous system. It causes gallbladder contraction, release of pancreatic exocrine (or digestive) enzymes, and affects other gastrointestinal functions. Cholecystokinin may be the mediator of satiety.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
