Effects of cholecystokinin (CCK) and gastrin on the release of acetylcholine (ACh) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) were examined in the longitudinal muscle with myenteric plexus (LM-MP) preparations of the guinea pig small intestine. CCK and gastrin induced the Ca++-dependent and tetrodotoxin-sensitive release of [3H]ACh from the LM-MP preparations preloaded with [3H]choline. Proglumide, but not scopolamine, hexamethonium and [D-Pro2,D-Trp7,9]substance P inhibited the release of [3H]ACh induced by CCK and gastrin. The desensitization to CCK and gastrin was observed with a 30-min exposure of the preparation to CCK and gastrin, respectively, and the cross-desensitization to peptides was not observed, thereby indicating that these peptides induce the release of ACh mainly via respective receptors. Bicuculline which inhibited completely the release of [3H]ACh induced by GABA inhibited the release of [3H]ACh induced by CCK but not by gastrin by 42.3 +/- 4.22%. CCK, but not gastrin, produced the Ca++-dependent and tetrodotoxin-sensitive release of endogenous GABA and [3H]GABA from LM-MP preparations preloaded with [3H]GABA. The release of [3H]GABA induced by CCK was antagonized by proglumide, but not by scopolamine, hexamethonium and [D-Pro2,D-Trp7,9]substance P. These results provide evidence that the GABAergic neuron is stimulated by CCK, but not by gastrin and stimulates the cholinergic neuron.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007082	Ileum	The distal and narrowest portion of the SMALL INTESTINE, between the JEJUNUM and the ILEOCECAL VALVE of the LARGE INTESTINE.
D008297	Male		Males
D009197	Myenteric Plexus	One of two ganglionated neural networks which together form the ENTERIC NERVOUS SYSTEM. The myenteric (Auerbach's) plexus is located between the longitudinal and circular muscle layers of the gut. Its neurons project to the circular muscle, to other myenteric ganglia, to submucosal ganglia, or directly to the epithelium, and play an important role in regulating and patterning gut motility.

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.
