In the last two decades, multiple aspects of the peptide YY (PYY) secretion have been
investigated. Besides fat and fatty acids, many luminal nutrients in the distal intestine appear to …

Over 80 years has passed since the discovery of substance P (SP), and a variety of
peptides of the tachykinin (TK) family have been found and investigated. SP, neurokinin A (NKA), …

The goal of present study was to determine the effects of the intravenous (iv) administration
of neurotensin (NT) on the ovine forestomach and abomasal motility in conscious sheep. NT …

The chemical specificity and structural requirements of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in
stimulating pancreatic endocrine responses was investigated in conscious sheep. Normal …

The present study evaluates the possible role of the vagus nerves in mediating the stimulatory
effect of PACAP-27, PACAP-38 and VIP on the exocrine pancreas, especially on enzyme …

The present study examined roles of endogenous cholecystokinin (CCK) and CCK-A
receptors in the regulation of pancreatic exocrine secretion and gastroduodenal motility in …

This study examined the effect of intravenous infusion of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating
polypeptide (PACAP) on duodenal motility in sheep and the mechanism of the action of …

Temporal coordination between duodenal migrating myoelectric complexes (MMC) and
pancreatic exocrine secretion, and the effects of porcine peptide YY (PYY) on gastroduodenal …

The role of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) in the regulation of
exocrine and endocrine pancreas was investigated in conscious sheep. Intravenous infusions …

Ruminants secrete a large quantity of saliva that is rich in electrolytes; however, it remains
unclear whether their parotid saliva contains epidermal growth factor (EGF). The present study …
