Comparative effects of pirenzepine and atropine on pancreatic secretion in conscious rats. 1987

J Chariot, and J De la Tour, and C Vaille, and C Rozé

The effects of pirenzepine and atropine on basal pancreatic exocrine secretion were studied in conscious rats fitted with a chronic pancreatic fistula. Pirenzepine was about 50 times less potent than atropine on a molar basis in inhibiting pancreatic secretion (respectively 44x for volume and 51x for protein output), while the efficacies of both drugs were in the same range. These results indicate that basal pancreatic secretion in vivo is mainly regulated by muscarinic mechanisms poorly sensitive to pirenzepine, and analogous to the M2 receptors described by others in vitro.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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.
D010890 Pirenzepine An antimuscarinic agent that inhibits gastric secretion at lower doses than are required to affect gastrointestinal motility, salivary, central nervous system, cardiovascular, ocular, and urinary function. It promotes the healing of duodenal ulcers and due to its cytoprotective action is beneficial in the prevention of duodenal ulcer recurrence. It also potentiates the effect of other antiulcer agents such as CIMETIDINE and RANITIDINE. It is generally well tolerated by patients.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D001639 Bicarbonates Inorganic salts that contain the -HCO3 radical. They are an important factor in determining the pH of the blood and the concentration of bicarbonate ions is regulated by the kidney. Levels in the blood are an index of the alkali reserve or buffering capacity.
