    Notes: Summary Infusion of synthetic secretin in conscious unrestricted rats for periods up to 24 h was used to study the structural and functional adaptation of pancreatic acinar cells to this secretagogue. Initial dose-response studies established 16 clinical units (CU) per kg and h (corresponding to 4.64 ug x kg-1 x h-1) as optimal dose for persistent stimulation of enzyme discharge. Infusion of this dose led to a slow but progressive depletion of enzyme stores with minimal content by 12 h stimulation. As a result of persistent stimulation total protein synthesis in the acinar cells increased after a lag period of 3 h and reached maximal values 90% above controls by 6 and 12 h secretin infusion. No structural equivalent for pronounced fluid and bicarbonate secretion was observed for either acinar or duct cells over the entire dose range (1 to 64 CU x kg-1 x h-1) and infusion period (1–24 h), except an increased number of coated vesicles in duct cells. Discharge of enzymes from acinar cells was paralleled by a high frequency of exocytotic images at the luminal plasma membrane and was accompanied by the occurrence of membrane fragments in the luminal space, especially after 3 and 6 h secretin infusion. An increased number of lysosomal bodies at these time points especially in the vicinity of the Golgi complex was interpreted in relation to membrane recycling following massive exocytosis. This pattern of structural and functional adaptation of acinar cells following secretin infusion corresponds to previously described changes following caerulein and carbamylcholine stimulation.

    Notes: Summary Intravenous infusion of synthetic secretin for periods up to 24 h in conscious rats was combined with invitro amino acid incorporation in isolated pancreatic lobules and high-resolution separation of individual enzyme proteins by two-dimensional isoelectric focusing and SDS gel electrophoresis. With this method persistent changes in the biosynthesis of ten enzyme and isoenzyme proteins can be studied as a result of prolonged secretin stimulation. Three major patterns of response were observed: progressive increases in the synthetic rates were found in six out of ten enzyme proteins with most pronounced changes in the synthetic rates of lipase (4.10-fold increase), two forms of proelastase (2.80-fold increase, respectively), the two acidic forms of trypsinogen and chymotrypsinogen (2.60-and 2.40-fold increase, respectively), and of ribonuclease (2.30-fold increase). Only moderate changes (1.30- to 1.90-fold increase) occured in the synthetic rates of four isoenzymatic forms of procarboxypeptidase and the basic forms of chymotrypsinogen and trypsinogen, respectively. No absolute change in the rate of synthesis was observed in both forms of amylase. These data obtained after secretin stimulation differ significantly from previous results after caerulein stimulation, but it is not clear so far whether this is due to differential effects of the two second messengers released by each of the hormones on the level of transcription or translation.

    Notes: Summary Application of a single dose of a new type of proteinase inhibitor camostate (FOY-305) via orogastric tube was used in rats to study the dose-response relationship of resulting pancreatic stimulation. Doses up to 10 mg/ kg failed to elicit any response, while significant decrease in enzyme content and increase in serum CCK-levels were observed with doses ranging from 25 to 400 mg/kg. A single dose of 100 mg/kg was selected for a time-sequence analysis, which revealed a 60 to 70% depletion of enzyme stores persisting over 6 h and reverting to control levels by 12 h. Peak increases in serum CCK-levels (15-fold above the elevation observed after regular food intake) were found after 30 min and persisted as an 8-to 10-fold elevation for at least 3 h, then declined to control levels by 9 h. This prolonged endogenous hormone release and resulting pancreatic stimulation were also verified in a separate group of animals in which volume, protein, and enzyme output were measured after cannulation of the pancreatic duct. While volume secretion was not altered by feeding a single dose of 100 mg/kg FOY-305, protein and enzyme output increased 2-to 3-fold over a period of 7 h. Fine-structural analysis of the pancreas demonstrated efficient depletion of zymogen granules from acinar cells with all doses between 50 and 400 mg/kg, accompanied by the appearance of membrane material in the acinar lumina at 3 and 6 h. The same transient increase in the number of lysosomal bodies predominantly containing mitochondria with all doses above 50 mg/kg was interpreted as increased organelle turnover due to persisting hormonal stimulation.

    Notes: Summary Previous studies from our laboratory indicate that the adaptive response of the exocrine pancreas of the rat to prolonged stimulation with optimal doses of caerulein (0.25 μg × kg-1 × h-1) follows a characteristic time course in which each step in the secretory pathway is activated. The immediate response is the depletion of zymogen-granule stores followed by coordinate and anticoordinate changes in individual rates of (pro-)enzyme synthesis after a lag period of 2 h. The sum of such changes leads to an increase in total rate of protein synthesis by 3 h which is combined with acceleration of intracellular transport packaging and granule discharge. In the present study the time course of DNA synthesis and the labeling index of five populations of pancreatic cells have been analyzed after caerulein stimulation for periods ranging from 6 to 72 h, using in vivo labeling with 1 μCi/g 3H-thymidine 1 h prior to sacrifice of the animals. DNA synthesis did not change during the initial 18 h in spite of persistent stimulation indicated by a 80% reduction of enzyme content. Following this lag period a sharp rise in DNA synthesis 20- to 25-fold above control levels was observed, which decreased by 48 h to reach control levels by 72 h. Increase in DNA synthesis was most pronounced in animals with lowest enzyme content in the pancreas. From the five cell populations studied by autoradiography interlobular duct cells and islet cells had no significant increase in labeling index at any time of stimulation. Acinar cells, intralobular duct cells and interstitial cells showed a marked increase in labeling index after a latent period of 18 h with peak values at 36 h 30 to 50 times higher in intralobular duct and acinar cells, respectively, and 4 times higher in interstitial cells. The increased labeling indices in all three cell populations reverted to lower values at 48 h and reached control values by 72 h. The data indicate a phasic and limited growth response of the rat exocrine pancreas to persistent stimulation with acinar cells as the major contributing cell population.

    Notes: Summary Oral application of a single dose of a new synthetic proteinase inhibitor Camostate (Foy-305) in male Wistar rats was carried out together with studies of in vitro amino acid incorporation followed by separation of proteins by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The aim of this experiment was to analyze changes produced by the inhibitor in total protein and individual enzyme biosynthesis. Administration of 100 mg/kg Foy-305 resulted in significant inhibition of total pancreatic protein synthesis, without changes in fractional rates for individual enzymes. 50 mg/kg Foy-305 induced a 10-fold elevation of cholecystokinin (CCK) levels in serum; this persisted for 3 h and led to a significant increase in the total rate of protein synthesis with peak values at 6 and 9 h (78% and 84% above control levels, respectively), returning to control by 15h. Changes in fractional rates of synthesis occurred with a latency of 6 h and were restricted to amylase and the anionic form of trypsinogen and chymotrypsinogen. Amylase biosynthesis decreased by about 40% from control levels at 9 h to return to control levels by 15 h. Increased synthesis of trypsinogen and chymotrypsinogen was observed; this was also phasic. The results show similar enzyme-specific regulation as previously described for exogenous CCK stimulation and for the adaptation of the pancreas to diets enriched in protein. They demonstrate the effectiveness of pulsatory endogenous hormone release in the regulation of protein synthesis.
