title: Characterization of a new CCK antagonist, L364,718: in vitro and in vivo studies.
abstract: In this study we examined a novel, orally effective, nonpeptidal cholecystokinin (CCK) antagonist, 3S(-)-N-(2,3-dihydro-1-methyl-2-oxo-5-phenyl-1H-1,4-benzodiazepine-3-yl) -1H-indole-2-carboxamide (L364,718) on CCK-induced amylase release. We used isolated rat pancreatic acini and incubated them with CCK-8 with or without various CCK receptor antagonists. L364,718 (3-100 nM), proglumide (1-10 mM), and the proglumide derivative CR1409 (1-30 microM) each caused a progressive rightward shift in the CCK-8 dose-response curve without a change in maximal amylase secretion. Plotting the data according to the method of Schild indicated competitive inhibition. The Kis for L364,718, CR1409, and proglumide were 0.25 nM, 0.15 microM, and 0.5 mM, respectively. Thus L364,718 was 600-fold more potent than CR1409 and 2,000,000-fold more potent than proglumide in inhibiting CCK-8-induced amylase release. Inhibition of 125I-Bolton-Hunter-CCK-8 binding to acini by these receptor antagonists had a similar rank potency. L364,718 was tested against other pancreatic exocrine secretagogues and was effective against agonists that only act through the CCK receptor. In rats, diversion of pancreatic juice from the duodenum stimulated pancreatic amylase output and elevated plasma CCK levels. The stimulated amylase secretion was blocked by intravenous administration of L364,718. Furthermore, extracted plasma CCK from rats with diversion of pancreatic juice from the duodenum stimulated amylase release from pancreatic acini, and this stimulation was blocked by addition of L364,718.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
