The effects of cholecystokinin and cholecystokinin-octapeptide on intestinal lymph flow in the rat.
Intravenous cholecystokinin and its synthetic C-terminal octapeptide were found to cause a transient augmentation of intestinal lymph flow in the rat. Concomitant increase in lymph protein transport suggests that this reflects the increase in intestinal blood flow which is known to occur in response to these agents.
