The intestinal phase of gastric secretion: a pharmacological profile of entero-oxyntin. 1975

L W Way, and D W Cairns, and C W Deveney

In dogs with denervated fundic pouches, antrectomy, and gastrojejunostomy, feeding a meal of cooked liver and 5 percent bone dust stimualted acid secretion from the fundic pouches without increasing serum gastrin concentrations. Simultaneous administration of pentagastrin, histamine, octapeptide of cholecystokinin, or bethanecol produced potentiation of acid secretion, suggesting that the mediator of the intestinal phase is different from these secretagogues. Secretin and glucagon failed to inhibit the intestinal stimulus but both atropine and metiamide were potent inhibitors. We conclude that entero-oxyntin, the hormone responsible for the intestinal phase of gastric secretin, has a unique pattern of effects for acid secretion.

D010418	Pentagastrin	A synthetic pentapeptide that has effects like gastrin when given parenterally. It stimulates the secretion of gastric acid, pepsin, and intrinsic factor, and has been used as a diagnostic aid.	Acignost,Gastrin Pentapeptide,Peptavlon,Pentapeptide, Gastrin
D010455	Peptides	Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS.	Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
D011956	Receptors, Cell Surface	Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.

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.

D004064	Digestive System	A group of organs stretching from the MOUTH to the ANUS, serving to breakdown foods, assimilate nutrients, and eliminate waste. In humans, the digestive system includes the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT and the accessory glands (LIVER; BILIARY TRACT; PANCREAS).	Ailmentary System,Alimentary System
D004285	Dogs	The domestic dog, Canis familiaris, comprising about 400 breeds, of the carnivore family CANIDAE. They are worldwide in distribution and live in association with people. (Walker's Mammals of the World, 5th ed, p1065)	Canis familiaris,Dog
