Abstract
Obesity remains a common metabolic disorder and a threat to health as it is associated with numerous complications. Lifestyle modifications and caloric restriction can achieve limited weight loss. Bariatric surgery is an effective way of achieving substantial weight loss as well as glycemic control secondary to weight-related type 2 diabetes mellitus. It has been suggested that an anorexigenic gut hormone response following bariatric surgery contributes to weight loss. Understanding the changes in gut hormones and their contribution to weight loss physiology can lead to new therapeutic treatments for weight loss. Two distinct types of neurons in the arcuate hypothalamic nuclei control food intake: proopiomelanocortin neurons activated by the anorexigenic (satiety) hormones and neurons activated by the orexigenic peptides that release neuropeptide Y and agouti-related peptide (hunger centre). The arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus integrates hormonal inputs from the gut and adipose tissue (the anorexigenic hormones cholecystokinin, polypeptide YY, glucagon-like peptide-1, oxyntomodulin, leptin, and others) and orexigeneic peptides (ghrelin). Replicating the endocrine response to bariatric surgery through pharmacological mimicry holds promise for medical treatment. Obesity has genetic and environmental factors. New advances in genetic testing have identified both monogenic and polygenic obesity-related genes. Understanding the function of genes contributing to obesity will increase insights into the biology of obesity. This review includes the physiology of appetite control, the influence of genetics on obesity, and the changes that occur following bariatric surgery. This has the potential to lead to the development of more subtle, individualised, treatments for obesity.

Daily rhythms of intestinal cholecystokinin and pancreatic proteases activity in Senegalese sole juveniles with diurnal and nocturnal feeding. Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol 2020; 253:110868.

Abstract
The influence of diurnal and nocturnal feeding on daily rhythms of gut levels of cholecystokinin (CCK) and the activity of two key pancreatic proteases, trypsin and chymotrypsin, were examined in juveniles of Senegalese sole (Solea senegalensis), a species with nocturnal habits. Four feeding protocols were performed: P1) One morning meal; P2) Six meals during the light period; P3) Six meals during the dark period; and P4) 12 meals during 24 h. Daily activity patterns of both proteases were remarkably similar and showed a high correlation in all the experimental protocols. In P1, daily patterns of CCK and digestive enzymes showed a single maximum. In P2, CCK levels exhibited two peaks. Digestive enzymes activities showed slightly delayed peaks compared to CCK, although their daily fluctuations were not significant. In P3, intestinal CCK concentration exhibited two peaks at the end of light and dark periods, but only the second one was significant. The first maximum level of chymotrypsin activity occurred 4 h after the first CCK peak, while the second one coincided with the second CCK peak. Fluctuations of trypsin activity were not significant. In P4, CCK concentration showed three small peaks. Digestive enzymes daily fluctuations were not significant, although they showed an inverted trend with respect to CCK. The daily pattern of the gut CCK content in our study is in agreement with the anorexigenic function of this hormone. Our results support the existence of a negative feedback regulatory loop between CCK and pancreatic proteolytic enzymes in Senegalese sole juveniles.

Abstract
Pancreatic acinar cells synthesize and secrete about 20 digestive enzymes and ancillary proteins with the processes that match the supply of these enzymes to their need in digestion being regulated by a number of hormones (CCK, secretin and insulin), neurotransmitters (acetylcholine and VIP) and growth factors (EGF and IGF). Of these regulators, one of the most important and best studied is the gastrointestinal hormone, cholecystokinin (CCK). Furthermore, the acinar cell has become a model for seven transmembrane, heterotrimeric G protein coupled receptors to regulate multiple processes by distinct signal transduction cascades. In this review, we briefly describe the chemistry and physiology of CCK and then consider the major physiological effects of CCK on pancreatic acinar cells. The majority of the review is devoted to the physiologic signaling pathways activated by CCK receptors and heterotrimeric G proteins and the functions they affect. The pathways covered include the traditional second messenger pathways PLC-IP3-Ca2+ , DAG-PKC, and AC-cAMP-PKA/EPAC that primarily relate to secretion. Then there are the protein-protein interaction pathways Akt-mTOR-S6K, the three major MAPK pathways (ERK, JNK, and p38 MAPK), and Ca2+ -calcineurin-NFAT pathways that primarily regulate non-secretory processes including biosynthesis and growth, and several miscellaneous pathways that include the Rho family small G proteins, PKD, FAK, and Src that may regulate both secretory and nonsecretory processes but are not as well understood. © 2019 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
It has been accepted for decades that "all forms of cholecystokinin (CCK) have equal bioactivity," despite accumulating evidence to the contrary. To challenge this concept, we compared two feeding responses, meal size (MS, 10% sucrose) and intermeal interval (IMI), in response to CCK-58, which is the major endocrine form of CCK, and CCK-8, which is the most abundantly utilized form. Doses (0, 0.1, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 3 and 5 nmol/kg) were administered intraperitoneally over a 210-min test to Sprague Dawley rats that had been food-deprived overnight. We found that (1) all doses of CCK-58, except the lowest dose, and all doses of CCK-8, except the lowest two doses, reduced food intake more than vehicle did; (2) at two doses, 0.75 and 3 nmol/kg, CCK-58 increased the IMI, while CCK-8 failed to alter this feeding response; and (3) CCK-58, at all but the lowest two doses, increased the satiety ratio (IMI between first and second meals (min) divided by first MS (ml)) relative to vehicle, while CCK-8 did not affect this value. These findings demonstrate that the only circulating form of CCK in rats, CCK-58, prolongs the IMI more than CCK-8, the peptide generally utilized in feeding studies. Taken together, these results add to a growing list of functions where CCK-8 and CCK-58 express qualitatively different bioactivities. In conclusion, the hypothesis that "all forms of cholecystokinin (CCK) have equal bioactivity" is not supported.

Abstract
Reduction of food intake by exogenous cholecystokinin (CCK) has been demonstrated primarily for its short molecular form, CCK-8. Mounting evidence, however, implicates CCK-58 as a major physiologically active CCK form, with different neural and exocrine response profiles than CCK-8. In three studies, we compared meal-pattern effects of intraperitoneal injections CCK-8 vs. CCK-58 in undeprived male Sprague-Dawley rats consuming sweetened condensed milk. In study 1, rats (N=10) received CCK-8, CCK-58 (0.45, 0.9, 1.8 and 3.6 nmol/kg) or vehicle before a 4-h test-food presentation. At most doses, both CCK-8 and CCK-58 similarly reduced meal size relative to vehicle. Meal-size reduction prompted a compensatory shortening of the intermeal interval (IMI) after CCK-8, but not after CCK-58, which uniquely increased the satiety ratio (IMI/size of the preceding meal). In the second study, lick patterns were monitored after administration of 0.9 nmol/kg CCK-58, CCK-8 or vehicle. Lick cluster size, lick efficiency and interlick-interval distribution remained unaltered compared to vehicle, implying natural satiation, rather than illness, following both CCK forms. In study 3, threshold satiating doses of the two CCK forms were given at 5 and 30 min after meal termination, respectively. CCK 58, but not CCK-8 increased the intermeal interval and satiety ratio compared to vehicle. In conclusion, while CCK 58 and CCK-8 both stimulate satiation, thereby reducing meal size, CCK-58 consistently exerts a satiety effect, prolonging IMI. Given the physiological prominence of CCK-58, these results suggest that CCK's role in food intake regulation may require re-examination.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a rapidly degraded gastrointestinal peptide that stimulates satiety and insulin secretion. We aimed to investigate the beneficial weight-lowering and metabolic effects of the novel N-terminally modified CCK analogue, (pGlu-Gln)-CCK-8. METHODS The biological actions of (pGlu-Gln)-CCK-8 were comprehensively evaluated in pancreatic clonal BRIN BD11 cells and in vivo in high-fat-fed and ob/ob mice. RESULTS (pGlu-Gln)-CCK-8 was completely resistant to enzymatic degradation and its satiating effects were significantly (p < 0.05 to p < 0.001) more potent than CCK-8. In BRIN-BD11 cells, (pGlu-Gln)-CCK-8 exhibited enhanced (p < 0.01 to p < 0.001) insulinotropic actions compared with CCK-8. When administered acutely to high-fat-fed or ob/ob mice, (pGlu-Gln)-CCK-8 improved glucose homeostasis. Sub-chronic twice daily injections of (pGlu-Gln)-CCK-8 in high-fat-fed mice for 28 days significantly decreased body weight (p < 0.05 to p < 0.001), accumulated food intake (p < 0.05 to p < 0.001), non-fasting glucose (p < 0.05) and triacylglycerol deposition in pancreatic (p < 0.01), adipose (p < 0.05) and liver (p < 0.001) tissue, and improved oral (p < 0.05) and i.p. (p < 0.05) glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity (p < 0.001). Similar observations were noted in ob/ob mice given twice daily injections of (pGlu-Gln)-CCK-8. In addition, these beneficial effects were not reproduced by simple dietary restriction and were not associated with changes in energy expenditure. There was no evidence for development of tolerance to (pGlu-Gln)-CCK-8, and analysis of histology or blood-borne markers for pancreatic, liver and renal function in mice treated with (pGlu-Gln)-CCK-8 suggested little abnormal pathology. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION These studies emphasise the potential of (pGlu-Gln)-CCK-8 for the alleviation of obesity and insulin resistance.

Abstract
Various molecular forms of CCK reduce food intake in rats. Although CCK-8 is the most studied form, we reported that CCK-58 is the only detectable endocrine peptide form in rats. We investigated the dark-phase rat chow intake pattern following injection of CCK-8 and CCK-58. Ad libitum-fed male Sprague-Dawley rats were intraperitoneally injected with CCK-8, CCK-58 (0.6, 1.8, and 5.2 nmol/kg), or vehicle. Food intake pattern was assessed during the dark phase using an automated weighing system that allowed continuous undisturbed monitoring of physiological eating behavior. Both CCK-8 and CCK-58 dose dependently reduced 1-h, dark-phase food intake, with an equimolar dose of 1.8 nmol being similarly effective (-49% and -44%). CCK-58 increased the latency to the first meal, whereas CCK-8 did not. The intermeal interval was reduced after CCK-8 (1.8 nmol/kg, -41%) but not after CCK-58. At this dose, CCK-8 increased the satiety ratio by 80% and CCK-58 by 160%, respectively, compared with vehicle. When behavior was assessed manually, CCK-8 reduced locomotor activity (-31%), whereas grooming behavior was increased (+59%). CCK-58 affected neither grooming nor locomotor activity. In conclusion, reduction of food intake by CCK-8 and CCK-58 is achieved by differential modulation of food intake microstructure and behavior. These data highlight the importance of studying the molecular forms of peptides that exist in vivo in tissue and circulation of the animal being studied.

Abstract
One of the possible mechanisms by which the weight-reducing surgical procedure ileal interposition (II) works is by increasing circulating levels of lower gut peptides that reduce food intake, such as glucagon like peptide-1 and peptide YY. However, since this surgery involves both lower and upper gut segments, we tested the hypothesis that II alters the satiety responses evoked by the classic upper gut peptide cholecystokinin (CCK). To test this hypothesis, we determined meal size (MS), intermeal interval (IMI) and satiety ratio (SR) evoked by CCK-8 and -33 (0, 1, 3, 5nmol/kg, i.p.) in two groups of rats, II and sham-operated. CCK-8 and -33 reduced MS more in the sham group than in the II group; CCK-33 prolonged IMI in the sham group and increased SR in both groups. Reduction of cumulative food intake by CCK-8 in II rats was blocked by devazepide, a CCK(1) receptor antagonist. In addition, as previously reported, we found that II resulted in a slight reduction in body weight compared to sham-operated rats. Based on these observations, we conclude that ileal interposition attenuates the satiety responses of CCK. Therefore, it is unlikely that this peptide plays a significant role in reduction of body weight by this surgery.

Abstract
Camostat mesilate (or mesylate) releases endogenous cholecystokinin (CCK) or CCK-58, the only detectable endocrine form of CCK in the rat, and reduces cumulative food intake by activating CCK(1) receptor. However, the literature lacks meal pattern analysis and an appropriate dose-response curve for this peptide. Therefore, the current study determines meal size (MS), intermeal interval (IMI) and satiety ratio (SR) by orogastric gavage of camostat (0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 800mg/kg) and compares them to those previously reported by a single dose of CCK-8 (1nmol/kg, i.p), the most utilized form of CCK. We found that camostat (200, 300, 400 and 800mg/kg) and CCK-8 reduced cumulative food intake and the size of the first meal, but only camostat prolonged IMI and increased SR. There was no change in the duration of the first two meals or in rated behaviors such as feeding, grooming, standing and resting in response to camostat and CCK-8, but there was more resting during the IMI in response to camostat. This study provides meal pattern analysis and an appropriate dose-response curve for camostat and CCK-8. Camostat reduces food intake by decreasing MS and prolonging IMI, whereas CCK-8 reduces food intake by reducing only meal size.

Abstract
Intravenous cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8) elicits vago-vagal reflexes that inhibit phasic gastric contractions and reduce gastric tone in urethane-anaesthetized rats. A discrete proximal subdivision of the ventral gastric vagus nerve (pVGV) innervates the proximal stomach, but the fibre populations within it have not been characterized previously.We hypothesized that I.V. CCK-8 injection would excite inhibitory efferent outflow in the pVGV, in contrast to its inhibitory effect on excitatory efferent outflow in the distal subdivision (dVGV), which supplies the distal stomach. In each VGV subdivision, a dual-recording technique was used to record afferent and efferent activity simultaneously, while also monitoring intragastric pressure (IGP). CCK-8 dose dependently (100-1000 pmol kg(-1), I.V.) reduced gastric tone, gastric contractile activity and multi-unit dVGV efferent discharge, but increased pVGV efferent firing. Single-unit analysis revealed a minority of efferent fibres in each branch whose response differed in direction from the bulk response. Unexpectedly, efferent excitation in the pVGV was significantly shorter lived and had a significantly shorter decay half-time than did efferent inhibition in the dVGV, indicating that distinct pathways drive CCK-evoked outflow to the proximal vs. the distal stomach. Efferent inhibition in the dVGV began several seconds before, and persisted significantly longer than, simultaneously recorded dVGV afferent excitation.Thus, dVGV afferent excitation could not account for the pattern of dVGV efferent inhibition. However, the time course of dVGV afferent excitation paralleled that of pVGV efferent excitation. Similarly, the duration of CCK-8-evoked afferent responses recorded in the accessory celiac branch of the vagus (ACV) matched the duration of dVGV efferent responses. The observed temporal relationships suggest that postprandial effects on gastric complicance of CCK released from intestinal endocrine cells may require circulating concentrations to rise to levels capable of exciting distal gastric afferent fibres, in contrast to more immediate effects on distal gastric contractile activity mediated via vago-vagal reflexes initiated by paracrine excitation of intestinal afferents.

Abstract
Secretin is a 27-amino acid brain-gut peptide from duodenal S-cells. We tested the effects of systemic administration of secretin to simulate its postprandial release on neuroendocrine neurons of the supraoptic nucleus (SON) in urethane-anesthetized female rats. Secretin dose-dependently increased the firing rate of oxytocin neurons, more potently than cholecystokinin, and dose-dependently increased plasma oxytocin concentration. The effect of secretin on SON vasopressin neurons was also predominantly excitatory, in contrast to the inhibitory actions of cholecystokinin. To explore the involvement of noradrenergic inputs in secretin-induced excitation, benoxathian, an alpha1-adrenoceptor antagonist, was infused intracerebroventricularly. Benoxathian intracerebroventricular infusion blocked the excitation by secretin of both oxytocin and vasopressin neurons. To test the role of local noradrenaline release in the SON, benoxathian was microdialyzed onto the SON. The basal firing rate of oxytocin neurons was slightly reduced and the secretin-induced excitation was attenuated during benoxathian microdialysis. Hence, noradrenergic pathways mediate the excitation by systemic secretin of oxytocin neurons via alpha1-adrenoceptors in the SON. As both systemic secretin and oxytocin are involved in regulating gastrointestinal functions and natriuresis, systemically released secretin might act partly through oxytocin.

Abstract
Cholecystokinin, like many peptide hormones, is present as multiple molecular forms. CCK-58 has been identified as the dominant form in the circulation, whereas most of the studies of CCK-receptor interactions have been performed with CCK-8. Despite both sharing the pharmacophoric region of CCK, representing its carboxy terminal heptapeptide amide, studies in vivo have demonstrated biological diversity of action of the two peptides, with CCK-58, but not CCK-8, stimulating pancreatic fluid secretion and lengthening the interval between meals. Here, we have directly studied the ability of these two CCK peptides to bind to the type 1 CCK receptor and to stimulate it to elicit an intracellular calcium response. The calcium response relative to receptor occupation was identical for CCK-58 and CCK-8, with the longer peptide binding with approximately fivefold lower affinity. We also examined the ability of the two peptides to elicit receptor internalization using morphological techniques and to disrupt the constitutive oligomerization of the CCK receptor using receptor bioluminescence resonance energy transfer. Here, both full agonist peptides had similar effects on these regulatory processes. These data suggest that both molecular forms of CCK act at the CCK1 receptor quite similarly and elicit similar regulatory processes for that receptor, suggesting that the differences in biological activity observed in vivo most likely reflect differences in the clearance and/or metabolism of these long and short forms of CCK peptides.

Abstract
We compared the abilities of cholecystokinin-33 (CCK-33) and CCK-8 to reduce food intake and to activate feeding-related areas of the nervous system. (1) Overnight food-deprived rats were presented with a 10% sucrose solution, and intake was measured at 5-min intervals throughout a 90-min test beginning immediately after intraperitoneal injections of 1, 3, or 5 nMol/kg of CCK-33, CCK-8, or the vehicle control. In the initial 20 min (first meal), both peptides were equally effective, producing large reductions of food intake. Thereafter, however, CCK-33 was more effective than CCK-8, producing much more sustained reductions. Overall, both peptides reduced total food intake, but CCK-33 was more effective than CCK-8. (2) Possible roles for the myenteric plexus of the duodenum and the dorsal vagal complex (DVC) of the brainstem in the differential satiety effects of CCK-33 and CCK-8 were examined by quantifying CCK-33- and CCK-8-stimulated Fos-like immunoreactivity (Fos-LI) in each site. Consistent with the greater ability of CCK-33 to produce sustained inhibitions of food intake, CCK-33 produced more Fos-LI than CCK-8 in nearly every section of the sampled sites. The results demonstrate: (1) Different forms of CCK have different efficacies in reducing food intake; (2) CCK-33 produces a much more prolonged satiety action than CCK-8; and (3) the myenteric plexus and DVC may play roles in these differential satiety actions.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Cholecystokinin, a regulatory peptide found in multiple molecular forms in brain and small intestine, is responsible for integration of functions associated with the intake, digestion and absorption of food. Whether the different molecular forms have identical biological activities is controversial. New information suggests that CCK58, the largest form of cholecystokinin detected in blood and tissue, has unique functions compared with other forms, and may be the predominant, perhaps only, circulating form in mammals. RECENT FINDINGS CCK58 has highly distinctive actions compared with shorter forms, most notably the strong stimulation of water secretion from the pancreas, and the lack of induction of pancreatitis by supramaximal doses of the peptide. Because CCK58 may be the main endogenous form of cholecystokinin, these recent findings have far reaching implications because almost all studies carried out with cholecystokinin have been done with shorter forms, predominately CCK8. Conclusions of studies using CCK8 or other shorter forms of cholecystokinin, therefore, may need to be reevaluated. SUMMARY There is a compelling reason to reevaluate the role of cholecystokinin in health and disease because the predominant form of cholecystokinin, CCK58, has unique biological activities compared with forms of cholecystokinin used in previous basic and clinical studies.

Abstract
In contrast to supramaximal CCK-8 or caerulein, acute or prolonged supraphysiological levels of endogenous CCK-58 do not cause pancreatitis. Compared with CCK-8, CCK-58 is a much stronger stimulant of pancreatic chloride and water secretion, equivalent to maximally effective secretin, but with a chloride-to-bicarbonate ratio characteristic of acinar fluid. Because supraphysiological endogenous CCK does not cause pancreatitis and because coadministration of secretin ameliorated caerulein- or CCK-8-induced pancreatitis, coincident with restoring pancreatic water secretion, we hypothesized that supramaximal CCK-58 would not induce pancreatitis. Conscious rats were infused intravenously with 2 or 4 nmol x kg(-1) x h(-1) of CCK-8 or synthetic rat CCK-58 for 6 h, and pancreases were examined for morphological and biochemical indexes of acute pancreatitis. A second group was treated as above while monitoring pancreatic protein and water secretion. CCK-8 at 2 nmol x kg(-1) x h(-1) caused severe edematous pancreatitis as evidenced by morphological and biochemical criteria. CCK-58 at this dose had minimal or no effect on these indexes. CCK-58 at 4 nmol x kg(-1) x h(-1) increased some indexes of pancreatic damage but less than either the 2 or 4 nmol x kg(-1) x h(-1) dose of CCK-8. Pancreatic water and protein secretion were nearly or completely abolished within 3 h of onset of CCK-8 infusion, whereas water and protein secretion were maintained near basal levels in CCK-58-treated rats. We hypothesize that supramaximal CCK-58 does not induce pancreatitis because it maintains pancreatic acinar chloride and water secretion, which are essential for exocytosis of activated zymogens. We conclude that CCK-58 may be a valuable tool for investigating events that trigger pancreatitis.

Abstract
Obesity and type II diabetes mellitus have reached epidemic proportions. From this perspective, knowledge about the regulation of satiety and food intake is more important than ever. The gut releases several peptides upon feeding, which affect hypothalamic pathways involved in the regulation of satiety and metabolism. Within the hypothalamus, there are complex interactions between many nuclei of which the arcuate nucleus is considered as one of the most important hypothalamic centres that regulates food intake. The neuropeptides, which are present in the hypothalamus and are involved in regulating food intake, also play a key role in regulating glucose metabolism and energy expenditure. In synchrony with the effects of those neuropeptides, gastrointestinal hormones also affect glucose metabolism and energy expenditure. In this review, the effects of the gastrointestinal hormones ghrelin, cholecystokinin, peptide YY, glucagon-like peptide, oxyntomodulin and gastric inhibitory polypeptide on glucose and energy metabolism are reviewed. These gut hormones affect glucose metabolism at different levels: by altering food intake and body weight, and thereby insulin sensitivity; by affecting gastric delay and gut motility, and thereby meal-related fluctuations in glucose levels; by affecting insulin secretion, and thereby plasma glucose levels, and by affecting tissue specific insulin sensitivity of glucose metabolism. These observations point to the notion of a major role of the gut-brain axis in the integrative physiology of whole body fuel metabolism.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We propose that regions outside the bioactive 7-amino acid carboxyl terminus of cholecystokinin (CCK)-58 influence its biological activity. Here we evaluate if sequence variation of the N-terminal regions of rabbit and canine CCK-58 changes their biological activities. METHODS Cholecystokinin-like immunoreactivity was purified from rabbit intestinal extracts by reverse phase and ion-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography steps. The peptide was characterized by microsequence and mass spectral characterizations of the intact and tryptic peptides. Canine and rabbit CCK-58 were evaluated for their CCK1 and CCK2 receptor binding, receptor activation, and immunologic properties. RESULTS The sequence of rabbit CCK-58 differs from that of canine CCK-58 in 9 of the amino terminal 40 residues. Canine CCK-58 was approximately 3-fold more potent than rabbit CCK-58 for CCK1 receptor binding and CCK2 receptor binding, but about the same potency for stimulation of amylase release from purified acinar cells. The canine peptide was 9-fold more immunoreactive than rabbit CCK-58. CONCLUSIONS Canine and rabbit CCK-58 have different biological and immunologic properties that can only result from differences in their N-terminal sequences which influence the properties of their identical carboxyl termini. These results are the first direct demonstration that amino acids outside the C-terminus of CCK-58 influence CCK biological activity.

Abstract
Cholecystokinin (CCK) is produced from pro CCK by a series of enzymatic cleavages. One of the enzymes thought to be important for pro CCK cleavage is prohormone convertase 5 (PC5). STC-1 cells, a mouse intestinal tumor cell line that expresses CCK, PC1, PC2, and PC5 were stably transfected with hairpin loop plasmids encoding siRNA targeting PC5 and clones were selected. CCK secretion was reduced significantly. PC5 mRNA and protein expression as measured by quantitative PCR and Western blot analysis was reduced about 50%. CCK and PC1 mRNA expression were not changed. These cells showed a three-fold increase in PC2 mRNA and protein expression. This increase may represent a compensatory mechanism triggered by the loss of PC5. The decrease in CCK in the media was due largely to loss of CCK 22. These results provide the first direct evidence that PC5 is involved in CCK processing.

Abstract
Pancreatic secretion of protein, water, chloride, and bicarbonate under basal conditions and in response to intravenous and intraduodenal stimuli were studied in awake rats fully recovered from surgery. During the basal phase of pancreatic secretion, protein output and water output were weakly correlated or uncorrelated, consistent with separate regulation and distinct cellular origin of enzyme (acinar cells) and water (duct cells), referred to as the two-component paradigm of pancreatic secretion. When pancreatic secretion was stimulated physiologically, water and protein output abruptly became strongly and significantly correlated, suggesting that protein secretion and water secretion are tightly coupled or that protein secretion is dependent on water secretion. The apparent function of this coupling is to resist or prevent increases in protein concentration as protein output increases. This pattern of secretion was reproduced by intravenous infusion of the CCK-58 form of cholecystokinin, which strongly stimulates pancreatic water and chloride secretion, but not by CCK-8, which only weakly stimulates water and chloride secretion in a non-dose-dependent manner. The remarkably tight association of water and protein secretion in food-stimulated and CCK-58-stimulated pancreatic secretion is consistent with a single cell type as the origin of both water and enzyme secretion, i.e., the acinar cell, and is not consistent with the two-component paradigm of pancreatic secretion. Because CCK-58 is the only detectable endocrine form of cholecystokinin in the rat and its bioactivity pattern is markedly and qualitatively different from CCK-8, actions previously recorded for CCK-8 should be reexamined.

Abstract
Several mechanisms have been proposed for neuroimmune communication supporting sickness behavior (fever, anorexia, inactivity, and cachexia) following infection. We examined the role of cholecystokinin as a neurochemical intermediary of sickness behavior by determining plasma, duodenum, hypothalamus, and brainstem cholecystokinin concentrations 30 and 60 min and 12 h following intraperitoneal lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (0.25 and 2.5 mg/kg). Hypothalamic cholecystokinin was significantly lower in LPS- versus saline-treated mice 30 min (0.25 and 2.5 mg/kg) and 12 h (2.5 mg/kg) post-injection. Plasma cholecystokinin of LPS-treated mice was significantly lower than that of controls 1 and 12 h post-injection, a finding consistent with a non-endocrine action of peripheral cholecystokinin.

Abstract
Nonsulfated CCK(58) [CCK(58)(ns)] has not been considered to be of biological importance because CCK(58)(ns) binds poorly to the CCK(A) receptor and has only been identified once in intestinal extracts. In this work, a radioimmunoassay specific for the COOH-terminal region of gastrin and CCK (antibody 5135) was used to monitor the purification of CCK molecular forms from canine intestinal extracts. A minor immunoreactive peak was associated with a major absorbance peak during an ion-exchange, HPLC step. Characterization of this minor immunoreactive peak demonstrated that it was CCK(58)(ns). CCK(58)(ns) is 14% as immunoreactive as sulfated CCK(8) [CCK(8)(s)]. Amino acid analysis demonstrated that CCK(58)(ns) was present at 50% the amount of CCK(58)(s). In addition, we found that CCK(58)(ns) does not potently displace an (125)I-labeled CCK(10) analog from the CCK(A) receptor in mouse pancreatic membranes and does not stimulate amylase release from isolated pancreatic acini, or stimulate pancreatic secretion in an anesthetized rat model. By contrast, CCK(58)(ns) does bind to CCK(B) receptors and stimulates gastric acid secretion via this receptor. The presence of CCK(58)(ns) and its ability to selectively stimulate the CCK(B) receptor without stimulation of the CCK(A) receptor suggest that CCK(58)(ns) may have unique physiological properties, especially tissues where the nonsulfated peptide can act as a paracrine or neurocrine agent.

Abstract
In this work, we 1) synthesized rat CCK-58, 2) determined the amounts and forms of rat CCK in whole blood after stimulation of its release by casein, 3) determined the potency of CCK-8 and CCK-58 peptides to displace labeled CCK-8 from CCK(A) and CCK(B) receptors transfected into Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, and 4) examined the biological actions of CCK-8 and rat CCK-58 in an anesthetized rat model. CCK-58 was the only detected endocrine form of CCK in rat blood. Synthetic rat CCK-58 was less potent than CCK-8 for displacing the label from CCK(A) and CCK(B) receptors in transfected CHO cells. However, rat CCK-58 was more potent than CCK-8 for stimulation of pancreatic protein secretion in the anesthetized rat. In addition, CCK-58 but not CCK-8 stimulated fluid secretion in this anesthetized rat model. These data suggest that regions outside the COOH terminus of rat CCK-58 influence the expression of CCK biological activity. The presence of only CCK-58 in the circulation and the fact that its biological activity differs from CCK-8 suggests that CCK-58 deserves scrutiny in other physiological models of CCK activity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We have used serial visual analogue scores to demonstrate disturbances of the appetite profile in dialysis patients. This is potentially important as dialysis patients are prone to malnutrition yet have a lower nutrient intake than controls. Appetite disturbance may be influenced by accumulation of appetite inhibitors such as leptin and cholecystokinin (CCK) in dialysis patients. METHODS Fasting blood samples were drawn from 43 controls, 50 haemodialysis (HD) and 39 peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients to measure leptin and CCK. Hunger and fullness scores were derived from profiles compiled using hourly visual analogue scores. Nutrient intake was derived from 3 day dietary records. RESULTS Fasting CCK was elevated for PD (6.73 +/- 4.42 ng/l vs control 4.99 +/- 2.23 ng/l, P < 0.05; vs HD 4.43 +/- 2.15 ng/l, P < 0.01). Fasting CCK correlated with the variability of the hunger (r = 0.426, P = 0.01) and fullness (r = 0.52, P = 0.002) scores for PD. There was a notable relationship with the increase in fullness after lunch for PD (r = 0.455, P = 0.006). When well nourished PD patients were compared with their malnourished counterparts, CCK was higher in the malnourished group (P = 0.004). Leptin levels were higher for the dialysis patients than controls (HD and PD, P < 0.001) with pronounced hyperleptinaemia evident in some PD patients. Control leptin levels demonstrated correlation with fullness scores (e.g. peak fullness, r = 0.45, P = 0.007) but the dialysis patients did not. PD nutrient intake (energy and protein intake, r = -0.56, P < 0.0001) demonstrated significant negative correlation with leptin. CONCLUSION Increased CCK levels appear to influence fullness and hunger perception in PD patients and thus may contribute to malnutrition. Leptin does not appear to affect perceived appetite in dialysis patients but it may influence nutrient intake in PD patients via central feeding centres.

Abstract
The C-terminal bioactive regions of CCK-8 and CCK-58 are identical (DY*MGWMDF-NH(2), Y* denotes a sulfated tyrosine residue), but these peptides have different patterns of bioactivity. Specifically, CCK-58 binds more avidly to the CCK(A) receptor while CCK-8 is more potent for stimulation of amylase secretion from pancreatic acini. We postulate that these seemingly contradictory observations reflect a stable conformational change in CCK-58 that enhances binding, but diminishes activation of second messenger. We used CD and NMR spectra to evaluate postulated structural differences between CCK-8 and the carboxy-terminus of synthetic CCK-58. The CD spectra indicate the presence of turns in CCK-8 but a mixture of helical and random coil structures for CCK-58. Comparisons of partial NMR chemical shift assignments of CCK-58 and full assignments for CCK-8 also indicate differences in the backbone conformations for these residues. The data support the hypothesis that these peptides have different, stable, carboxy-terminal structures that may influence bioactivity.

Abstract
Monoglycated cholecystokinin octapeptide (Asp(1)-glucitol CCK-8) was prepared under hyperglycaemic reducing conditions and purified by reverse phase-high performance liquid chromatography. Electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry and automated Edman degradation demonstrated that CCK-8 was glycated specifically at the amino-terminal Asp(1) residue. Effects of Asp(1)-glucitol CCK-8 and CCK-8 on insulin secretion were examined using glucose-responsive clonal BRIN-BD11 cells. In acute (20 min) incubations, 10(-10) mol/l CCK-8 enhanced insulin release by 1.2-1.5-fold at 5.6-11.1 mmol/l glucose. The stimulatory effect induced by 10(-10) mol/l CCK-8 was abolished following glycation. At 5.6 mmol/l glucose, CCK-8 at concentrations ranging from 10(-11) to 10(-7) mol/l induced a significant 1.6-1.9-fold increase in insulin secretion. Insulin output in the presence of Asp(1)-glucitol CCK-8 over the concentration range 10(-11)-10(-7) mol/l was decreased by 21-35% compared with CCK-8, and its insulinotropic action was effectively abolished. Asp(1)-glucitol CCK-8 at 10(-8) mol/l also completely blocked the stimulatory effects of 10(-11)-10(-8) mol/l CCK-8. These data indicate that structural modification by glycation at the amino-terminal Asp(1) residue effectively abolishes and/or antagonises the insulinotropic activity of CCK-8.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS The liver influences the metabolism of several peptide hormones. The metabolic effect may, however, change considerably by diseases in the liver. This study examined whether hepatic cirrhosis influences the occurrence and concentrations of procholecystokinin (proCCK) and its products in plasma. METHODS The sum of proCCK and its products (both processing intermediates and bioactive fragments) in plasma were measured by a recently developed "processing-independent analysis". Bioactive forms of CCK in plasma were measured using a highly specific radioimmunoassay directed against the C-terminal epitope of CCK. RESULTS In plasma from patients with primary biliary cirrhosis the basal concentration of the total proCCK product was increased. Moreover, a mixed meal increased plasma concentrations of both bioactive CCK (i.e. carboxyamidated an 0-sulfated CCK peptides) and the total proCCK product in primary biliary cirrhosis. In contrast, plasma concentrations of bioactive CCK and the total proCCK product were normal in patients with alcoholic liver cirrhosis-both pre- or postprandially. The fraction of bioactive CCK in plasma from patients with both biliary and alcoholic cirrhosis was also normal. Hence, in primary biliary cirrhosis, alcoholic cirrhosis and in controls, respectively, bioactive CCK constituted 15%, 15% and 17% of the total proCCK product in the basal state; 70%, 58% and 53% 30 min after and 48%, 56% and 51% 90 min after the meal. As shown by gel chromatography, plasma from patients with primary biliary cirrhosis and controls sampled 30 min after a meal contained CCK-33, -22 and -8-like peptides. In addition, plasma contained non-amidated (approximately non-bioactive) proCCK products corresponding in size to CCK-83, -58 and -33. Ninety minutes after a meal, CCK-8 predominated in plasma from patients with primary biliary cirrhosis, whereas plasma from controls displayed a CCK profile similar to that obtained 30 min post-prandially. CONCLUSIONS The results show that CCK-8 is metabolized at a slower rate in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis.

Abstract
Intestinal afferents are sensitive to cholecystokinin (CCK) octapeptide. However, CCK-58 may be a more biologically relevant molecule. Therefore, recordings from jejunal mesenteric afferent bundles were secured for extracellular multi-unit recording and the responses to CCK-8 and CCK-58 compared. CCK-8 and CCK-58 (i.v.) evoked a dose-dependent, devazepide sensitive, increase in afferent nerve discharge. Peak discharge frequency was higher for CCK-8 at all doses (P < 0.05). However, response duration was more prolonged for CCK-58 (P < 0.05) at 200 pmol.kg(-1). This resulted in an overall increase in area under the curve of CCK-58 compared to CCK-8 (P < 0.05). CCK-58 stimulates afferent discharge in a different pattern than CCK-8 and, therefore, may have differential biological effects.

Abstract
CCK-58 has been shown to be the major circulating form of the hormone in the dog and human. To date, there have been no reports on its biological activity in vivo. We report here that CCK-8 and CCK-58 were equipotent in decreasing gastric motor function after bolus doses and in stimulating protein secretion after continuous infusion in urethane-anesthetized rats. The present results are the first on the in vivo activity of CCK-58, and indicate that because CCK-58 is equipotent to CCK-8, and because it is a major released and circulating form, it may be considered as a major contributor to the expression of cholecystokinin bioactivity.
