Peptide YY (PYY) is a hormone released from gut after a meal. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of PYY on insulin release stimulated by either 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) or neuropeptides in conscious dogs with gastric and duodenal fistulas. In control experiments dogs received either 2-DG (75 mg/kg i.v. bolus) or atropine (25 micrograms/kg bolus followed by 20 micrograms/kg/h i.v.) plus 2-DG (75 mg/kg i.v.) or bethanechol (80 micrograms/kg/h i.v.) or vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP, 4 micrograms/kg i.v. bolus) or gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP, 400 pmol/kg/h i.v.) or tetragastrin (G4, 100 micrograms/dog, i.v. bolus). On separate days, PYY was also infused intravenously in combination with one of the above stimulants. Given intravenously, PYY (200, 400 pmol/kg/h) significantly inhibited 2-DG stimulated-insulin secretion in a dose-dependent fashion. This inhibitory effect also existed in the presence of atropine. Peptide YY (400 pmol/kg/h) depressed the insulin levels in response to GRP or G4 but failed to inhibit bethanechol- and VIP-stimulated insulin release. After administration of the above stimulants, PYY did not modify the blood sugar concentrations. These results demonstrated that PYY might inhibit the cephalic phase of insulin release from dogs triggered by 2-DG and by the neuropeptides GRP and G4. Thus, PYY may play a negative feedback regulatory role on insulin release.

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).

D009479	Neuropeptides	Peptides released by NEURONS as intercellular messengers. Many neuropeptides are also hormones released by non-neuronal cells.	Neuropeptide
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
