Pyloroplasty does not disrupt liquid phase gastric emptying or CCK-induced satiety
Abstract
To assess the hypothesis that cholecystokinin (CCK) induces satiety by constricting the pylorus and inhibiting the rate of gastric emptying, we impaired pyloric function in 8 experimental animals using a Heincke-Mikulicz pyloroplasty procedure. Liquid phase gastric emptying was measured with a double-sampling procedure. We found that pyloroplasty did not disrupt the pattern of gastric emptying of saline or nutrient under control conditions. CCK …
