Cholecystokinin (CCK) plays an important role in gallbladder contraction and gut motility. Sincalide (CCK-8) evoked guinea pig isolated ileum contraction at 10(-5)-10(-1) mumol.L-1 in a concentration-dependent manner, EC50 being 207 pmol.L-1. It delayed the gastric emptying as well. The rate of inhibition of gastric emptying was 71 +/- 12% at 100 micrograms.kg-1 by ip. Sincalide antagonists: lorglumide, devazepide, and L-365,260 antagonized the ileal smooth muscle response to sincalide in a concentration-dependent manner. Their pA2 were 7.30, 10.02, and 7.77, respectively. Lorglumide, devazepide, and L-365,260 inhibited the delaying of gastric emptying evoked by sincalide. The IC50 were 0.11, 0.0064, and 0.66 mg.kg-1, respectively.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007082 Ileum The distal and narrowest portion of the SMALL INTESTINE, between the JEJUNUM and the ILEOCECAL VALVE of the LARGE INTESTINE.
D008297 Male Males
D009119 Muscle Contraction A process leading to shortening and/or development of tension in muscle tissue. Muscle contraction occurs by a sliding filament mechanism whereby actin filaments slide inward among the myosin filaments. Inotropism,Muscular Contraction,Contraction, Muscle,Contraction, Muscular,Contractions, Muscle,Contractions, Muscular,Inotropisms,Muscle Contractions,Muscular Contractions
D009130 Muscle, Smooth Unstriated and unstriped muscle, one of the muscles of the internal organs, blood vessels, hair follicles, etc. Contractile elements are elongated, usually spindle-shaped cells with centrally located nuclei. Smooth muscle fibers are bound together into sheets or bundles by reticular fibers and frequently elastic nets are also abundant.

D011377 Proglumide A drug that exerts an inhibitory effect on gastric secretion and reduces gastrointestinal motility. It is used clinically in the drug therapy of gastrointestinal ulcers. Xylamide,Milid,Xilamide
D011949 Receptors, Cholecystokinin Cell surface proteins that bind cholecystokinin (CCK) with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes influencing the behavior of cells. Cholecystokinin receptors are activated by GASTRIN as well as by CCK-4; CCK-8; and CCK-33. Activation of these receptors evokes secretion of AMYLASE by pancreatic acinar cells, acid and PEPSIN by stomach mucosal cells, and contraction of the PYLORUS and GALLBLADDER. The role of the widespread CCK receptors in the central nervous system is not well understood.
