Secretin Levels in Plasma and Tissue of the Neonatal Swine

Abstract: The mean fasting serum secretin level determined in newborn swine was found to be 298.0 ± (SEM) 5 pg/ml, significantly higher than that in the adult animal. Intraduodenal infusion of 0.1 N HCI produced dramatic elevation of the mean serum secretin level to 2,090 ± 340 pg/ml. The tissue secretin concentration of duodenal mucosa as well as the molecular species of tissue secretin were found to be identical to that of the adult swine. The mean disappearance half-life of exogenously administered secretin in the ne… Show more

“…Acidification of duodenal contents appears to affect pancreatic exocrine secretion via release of secretin, as elevated serum secretin content has been reported in pigs after intestinal acidification with hydrochloric acid or monocarboxylic acids (Moazam et al, 1982). Biliary secretion is also stimulated via released secretin, regulating glucagon and/or insulin levels (Harada et al, 1986).…”

“…On the other hand, gallbladder mucosa can secrete water and electrolytes into the lumen, and hormones like secretin and vasoactive intestinal peptide not only can inhibit the reabsorption, they can reverse it into a net secretion (20)(21)(22)(23). Since in the early stages of extrauterine life plasma concentrations of secretin and other hormones may exceed adult levels (24)(25)(26), the high concentrations of bicarbonate and chloride in the puppies' gallbladder bile could be due to a hormone-induced inhibition of reabsorption or hormone-induced stimulation of anion secretion. The present results do not allow a rigorous distinction among these mechanisms.…”

“…In puppies of 0-4 days of age, plasma levels of glucagon are from three to four times higher than those in the adult dog (24). Although secretin plasma levels have not been measured in newborn puppies, data from neonatal swines (26) and human infants (25) have demonstrated a similar age-related change. It is thus possible that spontaneous bile secretion in the newborn dog is maximally stimulated by the high plasma levels of secretin and glucagon, so that administration of exogenous doses of these hormones no longer results in a choleretic response.…”
