The use of cholecystokinin to test gall bladder function in man.

چکیده
In 100 subjects the cholecystokinin test has been used in conjunction with the secretin test of gall bladder function. The response of the normal gall bladder to a standard dose of pancreozymin has been studied and the results in patients following cholecystectomy and in the presence of biliary tract disease have been recorded and contrasted with the results obtained by the secretin test and oral cholecystography. These are sufficiently characteristic to warrant the conclusion that used in this way the cholecystokinin test provides a new and valuable semi-quantitative estimate of gall bladder function.

CCK receptor antagonism by loxiglumide and gall bladder contractions in response to cholecystokinin, sham feeding and ordinary feeding in man.
The postprandial contractions of the gall bladder result from the interaction of neurohormonal factors but their relative contribution is unknown. This study was designed to determine the role of cholecystokinin (CCK) in gall bladder contractions using a highly selective and potent CCK-receptor antagonist, CR-1505 (loxiglumide) in healthy men either infused with exogenous CCK in graded doses (1...
متن کاملA test of pancreatic function in man based on the analysis of duodenal contents after administration of secretin and pancreozymin.
Pancreozymin in man as in animals appears to act as a specific enzyme stimulant. The preparations of pancreozymin used in these experiments also contain cholecystokinin, which causes the gall bladder to contract, and a smooth muscle stimulant, possibly substance P. The duodenal contents obtained in response to a standard dose of secretin and pancreozymin have been collected quantitatively in ma...
متن کاملEffects of a pharmacological dose of cholecystokinin on bile acid kinetics and biliary cholesterol saturation in man.
In order to study the mechanisms influencing bile acid pool size and cholesterol saturation index of fasting gall bladder bile, eight obese volunteers were placed on a low calorie diet for six weeks, and given intramuscular injections of a pharmacological dose of cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-OP, 5 micrograms) at mealtimes for half that period (alternating order). During CCK-OP administratio...
متن کاملGall-bladder sensitivity to cholecystokinin in patients with gall stones.
Gall-bladder sensitivity to cholecystokinin (CCK) was determined by dynamic cholescintigraphy in 18 patients with radiolucent gall stones and 18 matched controls during an infusion of CCK in which the rate of infusion was increased. In 10 of the matched pairs the patient was more sensitive than the control, in one the control was more sensitive, and in seven no difference was detected (p = 0.01...
متن کاملPathogenesis of the impaired gall bladder contraction of coeliac disease.
We have investigated the possibility that the abnormally decreased gall bladder contraction after meals in patients with coeliac disease might result in part from an abnormality in the gall bladder response to endogenous cholecystokinetic hormones--for example, cholecystokinin and motilin--rather than solely from decreased secretion of such hormones. Eight patients with untreated coeliac diseas...
