Rats were given injections of caerulein, secretin or a combination of these 2 peptides s.c. 3 times daily for 5, 10, or 15 days. Caerulein produced significant dose- and time-dependent increases in pancreatic wt and content of DNA, RNA, protein, amylase, and trypsinogen. Secretin produced significant increases in pancreatic wt and content of RNA and lipase after 15 days of treatment. After only 5 days of treatment with a combination of secretin plus caerulein, pancreatic wt and content of RNA and protein more than doubled, and trypsinogen content increased more than 5-fold. Comparing the averages across the 5-, 10-, and 15-day values, increases in wt, protein, and trypsinogen with the combination of secretin plus caerulein were significantly greater than the sum of the effects of the peptides given singly. Using increase in DNA content as an index of hyperplasia and increases in the ratios of pancreatic wt, RNA content, and protein content to DNA content as indices of hypertrophy, caerulein produced both hyperplasia and hypertrophy of rat pancreatic acinar cells. Secretin markedly augmented the hypertrophic action of caerulein but did not alter its hyperplastic action.
