The release of pancreatic polypeptide by exogenous CCK in man and dog. 1981

C Beglinger, and F Meyer, and W Häcki, and K Gyr

4 healthy volunteers received commercial 20% pure CCK-33 in 4 consecutive doses of 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 IDU/kg/h. blood samples were assayed for pancreatic polypeptide (PP) by radioimmunoassay. Plasma PP concentrations increased stepwise from a basal level of 67 +/- 15 pmol/l to a maximum of 198 +/- 46 pmol/l (p less than 0.05). In 4 mongrel dogs with Thomas cannulas, the same doses of 99% pure CCK-33 were successively infused. Plasma PP concentrations rose stepwise with each dose from 44 +/- 7 to 259 +/- 43 pmol/l (p less than 0.02). This rise significantly correlated with pancreatic protein secretion (p less than 0.01). It is concluded that intravenous CCK-33 induces the release of PP in man and in dog, in a dose-dependent manner.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010191 Pancreatic Polypeptide A 36-amino acid pancreatic hormone that is secreted mainly by endocrine cells found at the periphery of the ISLETS OF LANGERHANS and adjacent to cells containing SOMATOSTATIN and GLUCAGON. Pancreatic polypeptide (PP), when administered peripherally, can suppress gastric secretion, gastric emptying, pancreatic enzyme secretion, and appetite. A lack of pancreatic polypeptide (PP) has been associated with OBESITY in rats and mice. Pancreatic Polypeptide (PP),Pancreatic Polypeptide Hormone,Pancreatic Prohormone
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.

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

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.
