The Duodenal Hormone - CCK
 
CCK or Cholecystokinin, the name coined by Ivy and Olberg in 1928,causes the gallbladder to contract and behaves differently than Secretin in some respects. CCK was prepared by Ivy, et al in 1929 isolated from the upper intestine of Hog, Dog, Sheep and cattle. In 1930, Ivy, et al injected human subjects with CCK with complete or partial evacuation of the gallbladder in 4 out of 5 subjects. Use of CCK as a therapeutic agent however was questioned since it apparently did nothing more than egg yolk and cream and fatty meals. The latter produced the same effect but in a slower manner. Purification of CCK in 1939 by Agren and subsequent work by Harper in the early 1950's and their "Pancreozymin" preparations continued the exploration of CCK. Mutt and then Jorpes and Mutt in the late 50's to early 60's researched the purification of CCK. In 1967 Jorpes and Mutt delineated the structure of CCK consisting of 33 amino acids.  
 
CCK was the defined name in 1964 and 1966 by Jorpes and Mutt when they described both CCK and Pancrozymin activities and found essentially the same substance. However, due to differences in terminology in unitages it was decided that CCK would be the preferred name with Ivy dog units as the base for activity. In 1968-70 Jorpes and Jutt indicated that the CCK-octapeptide (CCK-8) showed full potency of total CCK, as did the synthetic and natural octapeptides. The pancreozymin activity of extracts of the duodenal-jejunal mucosa has been shown to be due to CCK.  
 
In 1975, Dafny, et al administered CCK-8 peripherally and produced enhancement of acoustical evoked potentials in several regions of rat brain. In 1979, Della-Fera and Baile inhibited feeding in sheep with CCK-8 intracerebroventricularily. In 1979, Vijayas, et al administered CCK-8 into the third ventricle of conscious, female, ovariectomized rats and stimulated prolactin and GH release and inhibited LH and TSH release. In 1982, Sakamoto, Otsuki, et al., demonstrated that CCK or Caerulein stimulated both insulin secretions and pancreatic exocrine function if 5.6mM or more of glucose is present in perfused rat pancreas. Okabayaski, Otsuki, et al.,(1983) in work with perfused rat pancrease showed that deaminated CK-8 had no effect on exocrine pancreatic secretion at a concentration of 100pM. C-terminal fragments of CCK with eight or more amino acid residues were a potent potentiator of insulin release as well as a pancreatic exocrine stimulant. Spanarkel, et al, indicate that CCK (27-32) amide antagonized the stimulation caused by CCK related agonists. In 1984, Beglinger, et al., indicated that (Thr28, Nle31) CCK (25-33)-"Nona CCK"-, natural porcine CCK(33) and synthetic Caerulein were found to be equipotent on a molar basis in stimulating exocrine pancreatic secretion. "Nona CCK" being less susceptible to oxidation than other CCK's offers interesting thought for medical and biological research.
