Abstract
This study was undertaken to determine the effect of synthetic chicken vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) on pancreatic blood flow, exocrine and endocrine secretions of the pancreas, and biliary secretion in dogs. The effect of synthetic chicken VIP on pancreatic blood flow and systemic arterial pressure was identical to that of natural chicken VIP in dogs. The present study demonstrated that synthetic chicken VIP induces significant increases in pancreatic blood flow, pancreaticobiliary secretion, and blood levels of insulin and glucose in dogs. Both the volume of pancreatic juice and blood levels of insulin were increased in consonance with the increase of pancreatic blood flow. This study suggests that the stimulatory effects of synthetic chicken VIP on exocrine and endocrine secretions of the pancreas may be related to the increased pancreatic blood flow elicited by synthetic chicken VIP.
