Effect of somatostatin on exocrine pancreatic secretion stimulated by pancreozymin-secretin or by a test meal in the dog. 1978

L Kayasseh, and K Gyr, and G A Stalder, and W W Rittmann, and J Girard

In 4 dogs with chronic duodenal and gastric fistulae, exocrine pancreatic function was assessed by cannulating the pancreatic duct and collecting the duodenal contents. Both methods were applied in each animal. Pancreatic secretion was stimulated by infusion of 2 CHR units of pancreozymin and secretin or by administration of a liquid test meal, injected into the stomach through the gastric fistula. During both experiments 3.5 microgram/kg somatostatin was given as bolus injection followed by an infusion of 3.5 microgram/kg/h. Somatostatin caused a significant reduction in protein and amylase output and in the bicarbonate concentration during stimulation with pancreozymin-secretin. Volume and bicarbonate slightly decreased but not to a significant extent. Duodenal volume and the duodenal activities of trypsin and amylase were significantly reduced during test meal stimulation and somatostatin infusion. Somatostatin is a potent inhibitor of exocrine pancreatic function mainly influencing enzyme secretion.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
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.
D011506 Proteins Linear POLYPEPTIDES that are synthesized on RIBOSOMES and may be further modified, crosslinked, cleaved, or assembled into complex proteins with several subunits. The specific sequence of AMINO ACIDS determines the shape the polypeptide will take, during PROTEIN FOLDING, and the function of the protein.

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.

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.

D013004 Somatostatin A 14-amino acid peptide named for its ability to inhibit pituitary GROWTH HORMONE release, also called somatotropin release-inhibiting factor. It is expressed in the central and peripheral nervous systems, the gut, and other organs. SRIF can also inhibit the release of THYROID-STIMULATING HORMONE; PROLACTIN; INSULIN; and GLUCAGON besides acting as a neurotransmitter and neuromodulator. In a number of species including humans, there is an additional form of somatostatin, SRIF-28 with a 14-amino acid extension at the N-terminal.
