1. The role of extracellular and intracellular Ca2+in pancreatic enzyme secretion has been assessed by correlating the exchange of45Ca with amylase secretion in the isolated uncinate pancreas of baby rats.2. The rate coefficient of45Ca efflux from pre‐loaded glands declined continually (indicating that45Ca is retained in several different pools) and probably reflects changes in the concentration of cytoplasmic free45Ca, which is determined by the rate at which45Ca is released from intracellular organelles into the cytoplasm.3. The rate coefficient of45Ca release was not influenced by extracellular Ca2+or Mg2+concentrations.4. Cholecystokinin‐pancreozymin (CCK‐PZ) and acetylcholine accelerated the release of both45Ca and amylase in a dose‐dependent fashion, even when extracellular Ca2+was reduced to 0·1 mM, but did not affect the initial rate of45Ca uptake by the tissue.5. In Ca2+‐free media (containing 0·5 mM‐EGTA) basal amylase secretion slowly declined and stimulated secretion was virtually abolished, but the accelerated release of45Ca was maintained.6. These observations indicate that natural stimuli of pancreatic enzyme secretion alter45Ca distribution in the cell by a process which is independent of extracellular Ca2+and which is associated with amylase secretion provided that the plasma membrane has not been depleted of Ca2+.7. Secretin, glucagon and insulin did not influence45Ca release. Secretin slightly increased amylase secretion, but this may have been a washout effect.8. Replacement of extracellular Na+by Li+increased the release of45Ca and amylase, but only in the presence of extracellular Ca2+. Li+‐substitution also increased45Ca uptake. Thus, under special conditions, secretion may be stimulated when increased amounts of Ca2+are made available from extracellular sources.9. Hyperosmolarity (known to increase45Ca release in muscle) also accelerated45Ca release and amylase secretion.10. 2,4‐Dinitrophenol markedly accelerated45Ca efflux but did not stimulate amylase secretion, indicating that a rise in cytoplasmic Ca2+will not initiate secretion if energy metabolism is impaired.11. CCK‐PZ slightly increased the rate coefficient of42K release, indicating a changed membrane permeability.12. The stimulatory effects of CCK‐PZ and acetylcholine were suppressed during Na+‐substitution by Li+, suggesting that the Na+concentration gradient across the membrane is important in secretion.13. It is concluded that the primary action of CCK‐PZ and acetylcholine may be to increase the influx of Na+into the cell by changing membrane permeability. This in turn is responsible for the release of Ca2+from intracellular stores (probably endoplasmic reticulum), leading to a rise in Ca2+concentration close to the structures involved in enzyme secretion. Secretion then follows provided that ATP is available and the plasma membrane is not depleted of Ca2+.
