Dietary protein peptic hydrolysates stimulate cholecystokinin release via direct sensing by rat intestinal mucosal cells.
We previously demonstrated that a peptic hydrolysate of guanidinated casein strongly stimulates exocrine pancreatic secretion in chronic bile-pancreatic juice-diverted rats and cholecystokinin (CCK) release from dispersed rat intestinal mucosal cells. These results reveal that the chemically modified protein hydrolysate stimulates CCK secretion and increases pancreatic secretion by a luminal trypsin-independent direct action on the small intestine. In the present study, we examined the direct effect of peptic hydrolysates of naturally occurring dietary proteins, casein, soybean protein isolate (SPI), egg white, and wheat gluten on CCK release under in vitro trypsin-independent conditions. All protein hydrolysates significantly stimulated CCK release from dispersed rat intestinal mucosal cells. Among the hydrolysates treated, SPI hydrolysate was the most effective in stimulating CCK release. The potential of SPI hydrolysate to stimulate CCK release was increased by long-term peptic digestion. However, an SPI-like amino acid mixture did not effect CCK release. In conclusion, peptic hydrolysates of commonly ingested dietary proteins stimulate CCK release via trypsin-independent direct sensing by intestinal mucosal cells.
