Pancreatic bicarbonate and protein secretory responses to intestinally perfused proteins or digests of proteins were measured in dogs with chronic gastric and pancreatic fistulas when luminalpancreatic protease concentrations were reduced to undetectable levels. Protein digests were analyzed for amino acid content, and various other indirect met-ods were used to assess the composition of the digest mixtures. Of five undigested proteins, none evoked more pancreatic secretion than a control perfusion with saline. Peptic digestion of these same proteins converted four of them to polypeptides that were poten stimuli of a pancreatic juice similar in HCO3-/protein ratios to that evoked by luminal amino acids. Dialyzed peptic digests of one of the proteins, bovine serum albumin (BSA), retained potency. Likewise, digestion of BSA with endogenous or exogenous pancreatic proteases converted the protein to a stimulus about equipotent with the peptic digest, though the composition of the pancreatic digests differed markedly from that of the peptic digests. We conclude that a) luminal peptides of four or more amino acids can stimulate the pancreas and b) during protein alimentation a wide array of luminal protein products may evoke pancreatic secretion.
