Effect of equimolar amounts of long-chain triglycerides and medium-chain triglycerides on plasma cholecystokinin and gallbladder contraction

Abstract: The present study was undertaken to compare the effects of equimolar amounts of long-chain triglycerides (LCT) and medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) on plasma cholecystokinin (CCK) concentrations and gallbladder contraction in man. On separate mornings and in random order six healthy volunteers ingested either 60 mmol LCT or 60 mmol MCT. Plasma CCK concentrations were measured by a sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay and gallbladder contraction by ultrasonography. Ingestion of LCT induced significant increa… Show more

“…Our observation that medium-chain triglycerides do not stimulate cholecystokinin secretion is in agreement with previous findings. 5 We conclude that intraduodenal infusion of long-chain triglycerides does not affect small-bowel transit time, although it significantly increases cholecystoldnin secre tion, whereas infusion of medium-chain triglycerides significantly accelerates small-bowel transit time, inde pendent of cholecystoldnin.…”

“…CCK is released from the upper small intestinal mucosa after ingestion of meals [6,8,9,13,18]. Because several investigators found good correlations between gallbladder contraction and plasma CCK levels in response to meals, and be cause infusion of CCK to levels comparable to those found after meals induced similar gallbladder responses, there is strong evi dence for this effect to be mediated by the release of CCK [5,6,9,11,13,14], Gallblad der contraction to all forms of physiological stimulation studied until now was accompa nied by increases in plasma CCK. However, this study showed that cephalic stimulation of gallbladder contraction by an appetizing meal did not induce release of CCK into the circulation.…”

“…Porcine intestinal DBI could also stimulate CCK release when administered intraduodenally in rat (47). The biologically active DBI fragment DBI (33)(34)(35)(36)(37)(38)(39)(40)(41)(42)(43)(44)(45)(46)(47)(48)(49)(50) induces Ca 2ϩ oscillations and CCK secretion in STC-1 cells (151). In addition to luminal factors, neuropeptide bombesin (101,131,136), ␤-adrenergic receptor agonist (127), GABA (44,54), and orexins (69) could all stimulate I cell CCK secretion.…”
