Secretion of pancreatic enzymes is inhibited in rats by the presence of intraduodenal proteases via inhibition of CCK release. The existence of a similar feedback mechanism in man is discussed controversially. Thus, in chronic pancreatitis (cP), which leads to a decrease of digestive enzyme secretion, increases in plasma CCK may be postulated. However, food induced CCK release may be impaired in cP due to maldigestion. We studied, therefore, the influence of food with or without addition of pancreatic extracts on plasma CCK in 16 male patients with longstanding cP. Plasma CCK was measured by bioassay using pancreatic rat acini prepared by collagenase digestion. Plasma samples were processed through SEP-PAK cartridges and assayed for CCK-like activity by comparing the bioactivity of samples with those of standard curves of CCK8. Plasma CCK was measured in 20 healthy controls and in cP prior and 7.5, 15, 30, 45, 60, and 90 min after the application of a test meal made out of milk, cream, eggs, and cacao. In addition CCK was measured in 10 of the same patients with cP on a separate day but with the addition of pancreatic extracts to the test meal. Basal plasma CCK levels were similar in both groups (control: 1.3 +/- 0.2 vs. cP: 1.5 +/- 0.3 pMol/l). Both groups showed a similar steep increase of postprandial CCK with maximal values seen between 7.5 and 30 min (control: 4.6 +/- 0.6 vs cP: 4.8 +/- 1.3 pMol/l). The addition of pancreatic extracts to the liquid meal in cP caused a statistically significant slight increase in plasma CCK.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
