[Interaction of dimethyl prostaglandin E2 and ethanol on the pancreatic secretion of the rat]. 1979

J Bourry, and P Demol, and H Sarles

We have studied the action of 16,16-dimethyl prostaglandin E2 methyl ester (DiMePGE2) on pancreatic secretion in the unanesthetized rat with pancreatic and duodenal fistulae. DiMePGE2 inhibited volume, protein secretion and bicarbonate output. The inhibition of protein concentration is dose related (ED50 = 5.35 microgram/rat). DiMePGE2 was effective by the intraduodenal, intravenous, and intraperitoneal routes. Intraduodenal infusion of ethanol alone (2 mL 16% (v/v) in 1 h) strongly increased protein secretion (concentration, +30%; output, +69%) When 4 microgram DiMePGE2 was injected intraperitoneally just before the ethanol infusion, the secretory effect of ethanol disappeared and the inhibition was similar to that observed with DiMePGE2 alone.

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.

D000431	Ethanol	A clear, colorless liquid rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and distributed throughout the body. It has bactericidal activity and is used often as a topical disinfectant. It is widely used as a solvent and preservative in pharmaceutical preparations as well as serving as the primary ingredient in ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES.
