Özet

In order to compare effects of circulating CCK-8 and glucagon on food intake, rats were provided with a permanently implanted catheter in the right atrium. Another cannula was implanted into the hepatic-portal vein by a new technique. After a standard fasting period graded loads of CCK-8 and glucagon were infused via these catheters during refeeding. Intracardiac glucagon and CCK loads dose-dependency suppressed meal size. Intraportal infusion of glucagon caused similar suppression compared to intracardiac administration. This may indicate a minor role of the liver as a target for the suppression of feeding by glucagon. In contrast, intraportal infusion of CCK-8 did not reduce food intake. The results indicate that CCK-8 is removed or inactivated by the liver. It is suggested that CCK-8 acts locally on vagal nerve endings to exert its suppressive action on food intake.
