title: The role of local cholinergic pathways in the motor response to cholecystokinin and gastrin in isolated guinea-pig fundus and antrum.
abstract: Both cholecystokinin (CCK-PZ) and gastrin stimulated antral rhythmic activity and raised fundal basal pressure. The antral motor effects were significantly blocked by pretreatment with atropine or tetrodotoxin. The fundal motor responses were almost unaffected. It is concluded that CCK-PZ and gastrin exert their antral motor effects essentially through local cholinergic neural pathways, while the motor responses in the fundus are almost entirely independent of these pathways.
