title: L-365,260 reversed effect of sincalide against morphine on electrical and mechanical activities of rat duodenum in vitro.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To study the antagonism of sincalide (CCK-8) to the effect of morphine and its mechanism.
  
  
  METHODS
  The electrical and mechanical activities of rat duodenum in vitro were recorded simultaneously.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Acetylcholine (ACh, 300 nmol/L) increased the spike potential amplitude (SPA) and the number (SPN) of rat duodenum in vitro, followed by an increase of duodenal contraction amplitudes (CA). The SPA, SPN, and CA of duodenum in vitro were not obviously affected by injection of morphine (330 nmol/L), but it could selectively inhibit the potentiation of ACh. After administration of CCK-8 (0.7 nmol/L), the SPA, SPN, and CA of duodenal segment did not exhibit obvious changes. But CCK-8 could selectively antagonize the effects of morphine, ie, the SPA and SPN were increased again, followed by an increase of CA. CCK-B receptor antagonist L-365,260 (30 nmol/L) reversed the antagonism of CCK-8 to the effect of morphine.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  CCK-8 could selectively antagonize the effect of morphine which inhibited the potentiation of ACh on duodenal activities in vitro. The antagonistic effect of CCK-8 on morphine was mainly mediated by CCK-B receptor.
