Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Peptide YY (PYY) is released when PYY cells in short term culture are exposed to fat suggesting that this peptide may be released by fat in the distal gut without neural stimulation. PYY is also released by fat in the proximal 1/2 of small intestine. To test the hypothesis that the release of PYY by fat in the proximal but not distal intestine may depend on an atropine-sensitive, cholinergic pathway, PYY levels were compared in four dogs equipped with duodenal and mid-intestinal fistulas when 60 mM oleate was perfused into either the proximal (between fistulas) or distal (beyond mid-intestinal fistula) 1/2 of gut at 2 ml/min for 120 min with intravenous administration of saline or atropine. We found that, when fat was confined to the proximal 1/2 of the intestine, PYY release was reduced following intravenous atropine when compared with saline (p<0.01). However, when fat was confined to the distal 1/2 of the intestine, PYY release was not affected by the intravenous atropine. We conclude that PYY release by fat in the proximal but not distal intestine depends on an atropine-sensitive, cholinergic pathway.
