摘要
Cholecystokinin (CCK) is considered to simply contract the gallbladder and relax the sphincter of Oddi with meals. In this study, we examined this hypothesis by investigating the action of CCK on the sphincter of Oddi and gallbladder of the guinea pig. The experimental design used an in vitro preparation of the sphincter of Oddi to measure contraction of the circular muscle. CCK increased tone in both the gallbladder and the sphincter of Oddi in a concentration-dependent manner. The normalized concentration - response curves for CCK, however, revealed that the gallbladder had a greater sensitivity to CCK (ED50 7 nM) than the sphincter of Oddi (ED50 22 nM; p < 0.01). Conversely, the sphincter was more sensitive to bethanechol than was the gallbladder. When the sphincter of Oddi was stimulated maximally with CCK in the presence of atropine (10(-6) M) or tetrodotoxin (10(-6) M), the contractile response was significantly reduced (p < 0.05) although not abolished. Conversely, atropine completely abolished the responses to bethanechol (10(-3) M) and transmural field stimulation (70 V, 10 Hz, 1 ms, for 20 s). Transmural field stimulation of the sphincter that had been precontracted with CCK (26 nM) caused a transient, initial relaxation followed by contraction. Pretreatment with atropine augmented die duration of this relaxation, which could be completely abolished by tetrodotoxin. Thus, CCK contracts the sphincter of Oddi in the guinea pig by a direct (myogenic) and a neural (likely cholinergic) mechanism. Relaxation of the sphincter of Oddi also occurs in the guinea pig via noncholinergic inhibitory nerves. Duodenal delivery of bile is expedited by CCK, which induces gallbladder contraction at low, near-physiological levels without stimulating the sphincter. Under other conditions, sphincter of Oddi relaxation may facilitate transsphincteric flow. In contrast, increased cholinergic tone may help prevent duodenal reflux into the biliary system.
