Duodenal output of lactoferrin in normal subjects and correlation to output of amylase, bicarbonate, and total bile acids. 1986

Nineteen normal subjects were studied before and after pancreatic stimulation. Duodenal flow was quantitated by means of a dilution indicator technique, and the secretion pattern of lactoferrin, amylase, total bile acids, and bicarbonate was studied. Output of lactoferrin in the duodenum was increased both after stimulation with a test meal and after hormonal stimulation by cholecystokinin alone or cholecystokinin in combination with secretin. Output of lactoferrin was not affected by stimulation by secretin alone. Lactoferrin was secreted in parallel with amylase and bile acids. The results indicate that the origin of lactoferrin in duodenum can be bile or pancreatic juice, or a combination of these.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007781 Lactoferrin An iron-binding protein that was originally characterized as a milk protein. It is widely distributed in secretory fluids and is found in the neutrophilic granules of LEUKOCYTES. The N-terminal part of lactoferrin possesses a serine protease which functions to inactivate the TYPE III SECRETION SYSTEM used by bacteria to export virulence proteins for host cell invasion. Lactotransferrin
D007782 Lactoglobulins Globulins of milk obtained from the WHEY. Lactoglobulin,beta-Lactoglobulin,beta-Lactoglobulin A,beta-Lactoglobulin B,beta-Lactoglobulin C,beta-Lactoglobulin E,beta-Lactoglobulin F,beta-Lactoglobulin G,beta-Lactoglobulin I,beta Lactoglobulin,beta Lactoglobulin A,beta Lactoglobulin B,beta Lactoglobulin C,beta Lactoglobulin E,beta Lactoglobulin F,beta Lactoglobulin G,beta Lactoglobulin I
D008297 Male Males
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.
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.

D004386 Duodenum The shortest and widest portion of the SMALL INTESTINE adjacent to the PYLORUS of the STOMACH. It is named for having the length equal to about the width of 12 fingers. Duodenums
