Experimental Observations on Human Pancreatic Secretion

Since Bayliss and Starling demonstrated the presence of humoral regulation of the
external secretion of pancreas in 1902, a large body of knowledge of the external
secretion of pancreas in avaliable in the literature. Recently, in conscious dogs
equipped with a pancreatic fistula and a Thiry-Vella loop of the duodenum, Magee
and Hong found that HCI, milk, or methionine solution when introduced into the loop
increased both the volume and the enzyme content of the pancreatic juice.
Furthermore they found that the intravenous injection of hexamethonium either
decreased or abolished the responses to milk or methionine.
Inaccessibility of human pancreatic duct by the ordinary measures, however, made
direct experimental investigation on the secretion of human pancreas difficult, and
the greater part of the information regarding the external secretion of the
pancreas has been driven either from experiments conducted on lower animals or by
indirect experiments on human being. An opportunity of experimental investigation
of the human pancreatic secretion by direct cannulation of main pancreatic duct
(Duct of Wirsung) is obtained following operative treatment of Korean gall-stone
patients. Patients in whom pancreatic cannulation was performed permit the
collection and analysis of pancreatic juice under various experimental conditions.
Rationale of clinical indications of the pancreatic cannulation and the effects of
hexamethonium and some dietary factors ell human pancreatic secretion consitute the
following reports.
A statistical review of biliary surgery done at the Severance Hospital for the
past 5 years period showed 74 gall-stone patients among total 122 cases of all kind
of biliary tract diaeases including malignant tumors. Further analysis of the 74
cases,according to location of the gall-stones found during the operative
intervention disclosed 171at only 12cases had gall-stones in gall-71a4der, 41 cased
had no stones in the gall-bladder 7ut in the common bile duct, and 18 cases had
them in both gall-bladder and common bile duct. Three others were intra-hepatic
calculi. Preference of patients for medical treatment and reluctancy of early
surgical treatment, in spite of the far advanced picture of biliary symptoms were
present, are well illustrated by high incidence of acute suppurative cholangitis(9
cases in the series). Subsequently it developed into unusual and complex pathology
associated with the gall-stone impacted in the terminal portion of the common bile
duct. Trans-duodenal sphincterotomy was done 29 times for effetive removal of the
stones, and pancreatic cannulation was indicted in 9 patients in order to overcome
complicated pathological changes due to either surgical trauma and bleeding induced
by repeated instrumentation from the initial choledochal approch or mucosal edcma
from tee longstanding irritation of gall-stones around the orifice of tee
pancreatic duct and the ampullary region.
Of the 9 cases studied, 7 pancreatic cannulations were done by the method
described by Doubilet and Mulholland and 2 cannulations were done by author's
modification. During the experiments the pancreatic juice was collected for
consecutive 20 min. Period. The volume was recorded and the total quantities of
lipase and amylase activity in pancreatic juice were estimated in each sample. The
Nelson's method was used to determine amylase, and the method of Cherry and
Crandall was used for lipase. The experimental procedures consisted of the
administration of whole milk or of a 1% solution of dl-Methionine in water. Both of
these were given orally in 200 ml. both before and after intramuscular injection of
hexamethonium chloride. In patients not receiving hexamethonium, "Starch Chyme",
20% 91UC7Be Solution,water and beer containing 5% ethyl alcohol were administered
orally as before in a volume of 200ml. Ten units of Secretin (Vitrum, Sweden) and
Pancreozymin (Boots , England) were diluted into 10 ml. of normal saline solution
respectively, and slowly administered by intravenous injection.
1) Total volume of daily 7ut-put of the pancreatic juice i9 minimum in fasting
stake but sharply increased after oral fe7ding. This is clearly shown in subject 2,
in whom gastric contents were aspirated for the first 3 days fellowed by oral
feeding. The volume secrete(I per day for the first 3 days was 15ml, next day it
was 30 ml. and after the oral feeding it was 650, 800 and 1000 ml. in order. and
Iropped to 450 ml. and fairly maintained at this level. In Subject 5, when
naso-gastric suction was discontinued but still fasting the volume slightly
increased, and then sharp increase was noted with the patient's diet becoming
regular.
2) Two patients received milk. In both the secretion of pancreatic juice and the
total out-put of amylase and lipase activity increased. The two pancreatic enzymes
increased in a strictly paralell fashion. After the administration of
hexamethonium7he volume 7f pancreatic juice secreted and its enzymes were reduced
to the resting values and milk was no longer effective.
3) The responses to oral methionine were similar t? those t? milk in subject 2,
but in subject 1 in whom the volume of pancreatic juice was already high, no
further increase was noted. This subject had been atropinized 2 hr. prior to the
experiment, but despite this treatment a respone to milk had been observed earthier
on the same day. In both subjects hexamethonium reduced pancreatic secretory volume
and enzyme activity. In neither case did methionine stimulate pancreatic secretion
after the administration hexamethonium.
4) Two patients were subjected for observation of atropine effect on pancreatic
secretion. In subject 5, 1/150 gr. of atropine was given by subcutaneous injection
did not abolish the response of pancreatic juice to the oral feeding of milk. In
subject 9, the total volume of the daily pancreatic secretion was minimum in
fasting and slightly increased with removal of gastric suction but markedly
increased after Oral feeding, in Spite of 1/150 gr. of atropine given twice daily
for 5 days throughout her fasting and feeding stages. A distinct differerence
between the effect of atropine and hexamethonium on pancreatic secretion is noted.
5) The secretin is known to increase the volume of pancreatic juice but not the
enzymes. In subject 9, the volume of pancreatic juice markedly increased after the
secretin injection. Second administration of the secretin again markedly increased
the volume but the enzyme activities were not remarkably increased as to the
proceeding result. When the secretin is given after hexamethonium. the lipase
activity was reduced to resting vague but the increase of volume was persistently
marked.
6) Starch chyme alone markedly increased both the volume and the enzyme out-put
of the pancreas. Twenty per cent glucose solution markedly depressed both 7he
enzymes and the volume out-put of pancreatic juice. Tap water had little effect,
but beer slightly increased the volume and enzymes.
7) Intravenous fluid administration of an electrolyte solution, M/6 sodium
lactate solution. 5% Amigen solution given 3 ml. per miniute grove no conclusive
effects on pancreatic secretion in human.
