“Intravenous injection of 100 micrograms/kg PGE2 inhibited both the volume and amylase secretion of pancreatic juice stimulated with 1 U/kg.h of secretin.”
The American journal of physiology • 1991 | View Paper
“Furthermore, 10 …/ml prostaglandin E2 had a small inhibitory effect on the amylase release induced by maximal stimulation of secretin (5 ×10−7 M), although the combination of prostaglandin E2 and secretin caused a bigger increase in the cellular cyclic AMP than that induced by each alone (additive effect).”
“On the other hand, prostaglandin E2 (10 μg/ml) induced an accumulation of the cellular cyclic AMP as observed by secretin (5 × 10−7M) but did not stimulate enzyme secretion.”
“It is concluded that PGE2 may have some centrally mediated effects on the protein pancreatic secretion , while the effects of enprostil appear mainly peripheral.”
“Intra-arterial injections of high doses of secretin (4 and 8 units) stimulated the output of both pancreatic secretin and PGE2 and 6-keto-PGF1 alpha into the blood of the pancreaticoduodenal vein dose-dependently.”
