1. This study examines the influence of starvation on intestinal CCK content and pancreatic growth. Intestinal CCK content was determined by measuring the CCK-like activity using an in vitro gall-bladder bio-assay. Starvation for up to 72 hr causes a parallel fall in intestinal CCK content and pancreatic DNA synthesis. Since there was no significant decrease in liver DNA synthesis, the effect of starvation was probably not simply a consequence of malnutrition. Furthermore there was little effect of starvation on pancreatic protein and DNA content, suggesting that pancreatic cell turnover is particularly sensitive to changes in dietary stimulation.2. With refeeding after starvation CCK-like activity in intestinal extracts gradually increased, approaching non-fasting levels 72 hr after refeeding. Pancreatic DNA synthesis also returned to non-fasting levels after feeding but this rose faster than the intestinal CCK content.3. Pentagastrin treatment prevented the atrophy of both the pancreas and the gastrointestinal tract with starvation without influencing the fall in intestinal CCK-like activity. This suggests that the control of CCK-containing cells is different from that of the surrounding intestinal parenchyma.4. The effect of starvation was also studied in antrectomized rats. Antrectomy alone did not reduce pancreatic DNA synthesis although DNA synthesis of the small intestine was significantly reduced. When antrectomized rats were starved pancreatic DNA synthesis fell to the same degree as was found in unoperated animals. The pancreatic atrophy was also accompanied by a drop in intestinal CCK content. Starvation of antrectomized rats, however, did not further depress the already greatly reduced plasma gastrin concentration.
