Cholecystokinin in the regulation of gastric acid and endocrine pancreatic secretion in humans.

In this study, a selective antagonist of cholecystokinin (CCK)-A receptors, loxiglumide, was used to evaluate the role of CCK in the control of the release of gastrin and pancreatic hormones (insulin, glucagon, pancreatic polypeptide (PP), and somatostatin) after stimulation with exogenous CCK and ingestion of a standard liquid mixed meal in healthy humans. Exogenous CCK-8, which induced a small but significant increase in gastric acid secretion, resulted in dose-dependent increments in plasma PP levels without significant changes in plasma levels of insulin, glucagon, or somatostatin. Pretreatment with loxiglumide resulted in a marked increase in CCK-induced gastric acid secretion and abolished the increments in plasma PP without alteration of plasma insulin, glucagon, or somatostatin levels. Ingestion of the liquid meal resulted in an immediate rise in intragastric pH from basal values of about 2 to pH6 lasting 90-120 min, and this was accompanied by significant increments in plasma gastrin, insulin, glucagon, PP, and somatostatin. Administration of loxiglumide (1200 mg orally) caused a reduction in the postprandial intragastric pH and the two- to three-fold increase in plasma gastrin. Plasma insulin and glucagon levels in tests with loxiglumide tended to increase, probably owing to accelerated gastric emptying, whereas plasma PP and somatostatin were significantly reduced. This study provides evidence that CCK exerts an inhibitory effect on gastric acid secretion and plasma gastrin release as well as a stimulatory influence on the release of PP and somatostatin via CCK-A receptors but does not influence directly insulin or glucagon secretion in man.
