title: Release of pancreatic polypeptide and its mechanism in luminal feedback regulation in the conscious rat.
abstract: Exclusion of bile and pancreatic juice (BPJ) from the proximal intestine increases the release of pancreatic polypeptide (PP) from 4.4 to 14.3 pM and its increase was diminished by the intravenous infusion of atropine (100 micrograms/kg/h) in conscious rats. Neither intravenous bolus injection nor continuous infusion of cerulein did increase plasma PP concentration. It is suggested that the increase in plasma PP concentration produced by BPJ diversion is regulated by cholinergic mechanism, but not by cholecystokinin (CCK) released despite the known fact that BPJ diversion increases plasma CCK concentration.
