The effects of bilateral truncal vagotomy on cholecystokinin (CCK) release and pancreatic hypersecretion produced by bile and pancreatic juice (BPJ) diversion were examined in conscious rats. In addition, the effect of exogenous administration of CCK-8 (100 pmol/kg/h) on pancreatic secretion were compared in rats with and without vagotomy. Rats were prepared with external bile and pancreatic juice fistulae and the experiment was conducted on the 4th postoperative day. Basal pancreatic secretion was not affected by vagotomy. CCK release produced by bile and pancreatic juice diversion was enhanced, whereas protein secretion in response to high plasma CCK was inhibited by vagotomy. Pancreatic secretion stimulated by intravenous infusion of 100 pmol/kg/h of CCK-8 was also inhibited by vagotomy. These results proposed that vagal nerve is mandatory for the full response of pancreatic exocrine secretion to circulating CCK.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008297 Male Males
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.
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
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.

D015167 Vagotomy, Truncal Bilateral dissection of the abdominal branches of the vagus nerve. It is used frequently in the surgical management of duodenal and gastric ulcers, as well as in physiologic studies of gastrointestinal secretion and motility.
