The effects of calcitonin on pancreatic exocrine secretion in dogs. 1977

Y Nakashima, and H E Appert, and J M Howard

The effect of calcitonin on pancreatic secretion was studied in unanesthetized dogs with a Thomas cannula implanted opposite the main pancreatic duct. Pancreatic juice was collected for a 60 minute control period, during which time secretion was stimulated by the intravenous infusion of secretin and pancreozymin. After the 60 minute control period, calcitonin was infused along with the secretin and pancreozymin. The infusion of calcitonin caused the volume, bicarbonate and enzyme output in the pancreatic juice to decrease to about one-half of that during the control period. During the one hour period, after calcitonin infusion was stopped, the volume, bicarbonate and enzyme content of the pancreatic juice increased but remained slightly lower than that of the control period. The infusion of calcium gluceptate, along with secretin and pancreozymin, overcame the inhibitory effect of calcitonin on pancreatic 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.
D010189 Pancreatic Juice The fluid containing digestive enzymes secreted by the pancreas in response to food in the duodenum. Juice, Pancreatic,Juices, Pancreatic,Pancreatic Juices
D002116 Calcitonin A peptide hormone that lowers calcium concentration in the blood. In humans, it is released by thyroid cells and acts to decrease the formation and absorptive activity of osteoclasts. Its role in regulating plasma calcium is much greater in children and in certain diseases than in normal adults. Thyrocalcitonin,Calcitonin(1-32),Calcitrin,Ciba 47175-BA,Eel Calcitonin,Calcitonin, Eel,Ciba 47175 BA,Ciba 47175BA
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.
