Abstract: | BACKGROUND: Prosomatostatin-derived peptides include two principle bioactive molecular forms, somatostatin 28 (S-28) and somatostatin 14 (S-14). This study examined whether there is a functional relationship between gastric acid secretion and the release of S-28 and S-14 into the circulation. METHODS: In conscious dogs with gastric and duodenal cannulas, S-28 and S-14 responses, measured after extraction of acidified plasma and separation by gel chromatography, were evaluated by administration of nutrients and acid-inducing secretagogues without and with omeprazole. RESULTS: Ingestion of a solid meal caused equivalent plasma elevations of S-28 and S-14, whereas infusions of histamine and gastrin selectively increased plasma S-14. Omeprazole decreased meal-stimulated S-28 (-67% +/- 8%; P < 0.01) and S-14 (-56 +/- 9%; P < 0.01) and abolished S-14 increases to histamine and gastrin. Intraduodenal perfusions of a liquid protein meal increased S-28 above S-14, comprising approximately 71% of total somatostatin-like immunoreactivity released, and omeprazole suppressed S-28 (-87% +/- 5%; P < 0.01) without influencing S-14. Similar responses occurred after exogenous cholecystokinin. Moreover, pretreatment of the intraduodenal protein meal with the cholecystokinin-A receptor antagonist MK-329 abolished increases of S-28 and S-14 and caused a further twofold increase of gastric acid (P < 0.025). CONCLUSIONS: In the fed state, gastric acid causes direct release of S-14 from the stomach, but the acid-dependent component of S-28 secretion requires cholecystokinin as a cofactor. Negative feedback regulation between somatostatin and gastric acid secretory responses to nutrients may include S-28 modulated, in part, by cholecystokinin. |
