Abstract:In the present study we examined the influence of extrinsic pancreatic innervation on exocrine pancreatic response to secretin, caerulein, tryptophan and fat, and furthermore the amino acid- and fat-stimulated release of neurotensin and CCK in dogs. Denervation of the pancreas did not alter secretory response to secretin and caerulein, whereas transsection of the extrinsic nerves significantly diminished the protein response to tryptophan and fat. Release of CCK was not altered by pancreatic denervation. Howev… Show more
