title: Effect of BIM-18216, a novel cholecystokinin receptor antagonist, on food intake reduction induced by cholecystokinin.
abstract: The role of cholecystokinin (CCK) in food intake was investigated in rats by using BIM-18216, a novel CCK receptor antagonist. In rats fed 6 hr/day, BIM-18216 antagonized the reduction of food intake induced by exogenous CCK octapeptide (CCK-8; 4 micrograms/kg) in a dose-dependent manner and had a maximum effect at 1 mg/kg. BIM-18216 did not antagonize the effect of bombesin on food intake and showed some degree of specificity. BIM-18216 was not able to prevent the effect of endogenous CCK at the beginning of the feeding period. These data demonstrate that BIM-18216 is a potent CCK-specific antagonist. These results also suggest that endogenous and exogenous CCK could act by different regulating pathways.
