Abstract
Studies of the response of the isolated perfused rat pancreas to three doses of secretin (5.0, 10.0, 18.75 U/h) and CCK (0.6, 1.5, 2.4 U/h) show that a 35-day administration of a carbohydrate-rich (60% carbohydrate, 3% fat, 20% protein) or fat-rich (34% fat, 11.3% carbohydrate, 29.8% protein) diet increases the sensitivity of the gland to these hormones compared to a standard diet (50.5% carbohydrate, 4% fat, 19% protein). The maximal secretory flow on stimulation by secretin and on a combined stimulation by secretin (2.5 U/h) plus CCK (1.8 U/h) is significantly (p
