title: Stimulatory and inhibitory effects of bile salts on rat pancreatic secretion.
abstract: The effects of various species of bile salts (chenodeoxycholate, deoxycholate, ursodeoxycholate and cholate, and their taurine and glycine conjugates) on pancreatic exocrine secretion were studied in conscious rats with external bile and pancreatic fistulae. For examination of the stimulatory effects of bile salts, bile and pancreatic juice were collected for a basal period of 90 minutes and returned to the intestine, and then solutions of bile salts (60 mmol/L) were infused intraduodenally at a rate of 1 mL/h for 2 hours. For examination of their inhibitory effects, pancreatic secretion was stimulated by exclusion of the bile and pancreatic juice; and then solutions of the bile salts were again infused intraduodenally. Chenodeoxycholate, glycochenodeoxycholate, ursodeoxycholate, deoxycholate, and its conjugates (glycodeoxycholate and taurodeoxycholate) significantly increased the fluid, bicarbonate and protein outputs, and bicarbonate concentration, with decrease in protein concentration. These increases were partially inhibited by infusion of either a cholecystokinin antagonist or secretin antibody. In contrast, cholate, taurocholate, tauroursodeoxycholate, glycoursodeoxycholate, and taurochenodeoxycholate inhibited pancreatic secretion and increase in the plasma cholecystokinin concentration produced by exclusion of bile and pancreatic juice. Thus, some bile salts, including taurocholate and taurochenodeoxycholate (major bile salts in rat bile) inhibited pancreatic secretion and cholecystokinin release, whereas some other bile salts increased pancreatic secretion via cholecystokinin release and secretin release.
