Duodenal acidification releases cholecystokinin. 1985

Y F Chen, and W Y Chey, and T M Chang, and K Y Lee

We studied the effect of hydrochloric acid (HCl) in the proximal small intestine on release of cholecystokinin (CCK) and secretin and on exocrine pancreatic secretion in conscious dogs with gastric cannulas and modified Herrera pancreatic cannulas. Intraduodenal administration of HCl in a concentration of 50 or 100 mM at rates of 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.4 mmol/min significantly increased plasma concentration of CCK in a dose-dependent manner, whereas plasma gastrin levels decreased. The increased plasma CCK level paralleled a significant increase in pancreatic trypsin output. Plasma secretin concentration and pancreatic bicarbonate output also increased in response to the acid, and the increase was dependent on the acid loads delivered in the duodenum. Thus, in dogs, HCl in the duodenum releases both CCK and secretin to stimulate pancreatic secretion of bicarbonate as well as enzymes.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
D010189 Pancreatic Juice The fluid containing digestive enzymes secreted by the pancreas in response to food in the duodenum. Juice, Pancreatic,Juices, Pancreatic,Pancreatic Juices
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. Pancreozymin,CCK-33,Cholecystokinin 33,Uropancreozymin
D004285 Dogs The domestic dog, Canis familiaris, comprising about 400 breeds, of the carnivore family CANIDAE. They are worldwide in distribution and live in association with people. (Walker's Mammals of the World, 5th ed, p1065) Canis familiaris,Dog
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
D005755 Gastrins A family of gastrointestinal peptide hormones that excite the secretion of GASTRIC JUICE. They may also occur in the central nervous system where they are presumed to be neurotransmitters. Gastrin

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.
