Pancreastatin is a 49-amino acid straight chain molecule isolated from porcine pancreatic extracts. In the perfused rat pancreas, this peptide has been shown to inhibit unstimulated insulin release and the insulin responses to glucose, arginine, and tolbutamide. To further explore the influence of pancreastatin on islet cell secretion, the effect of synthetic porcine pancreastatin (a 2-micrograms priming dose, followed by constant infusion at a concentration of 15.7 nmol/L) was studied on the insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin responses to 1 nmol/L vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), 1 nmol/L gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP), and 1 nmol/L 26 to 33 octapeptide form of cholecystokinin (8-CCK). The effect of pancreastatin on the insulin and somatostatin secretion elicited by glucagon (20 nmol/L) was also examined. Pancreastatin infusion consistently reduced the insulin responses to VIP, GIP, and 8-CCK without modifying glucagon or somatostatin release. It also inhibited the insulin release but not the somatostatin output induced by glucagon. These observations broaden the spectrum of pancreastatin as an inhibitor of insulin release. The finding that pancreastatin does not alter glucagon or somatostatin secretion supports the concept that it influences the B cell directly, and not through an A cell or D cell paracrine effect.

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.

D005934 Glucagon A 29-amino acid pancreatic peptide derived from proglucagon which is also the precursor of intestinal GLUCAGON-LIKE PEPTIDES. Glucagon is secreted by PANCREATIC ALPHA CELLS and plays an important role in regulation of BLOOD GLUCOSE concentration, ketone metabolism, and several other biochemical and physiological processes.
