BackgroundAlthough cholecystokinin (CCK) has been shown to inhibit gastric emptying via CCK-A receptors (CCK-ARs), the role of CCK-B receptors (CCK-BRs) has not been verified. We examined whether gastric emptying of a nonnutrient liquid load was modified in CCK-AR, BR, and ARBR gene knockout mice.MethodsA liquid gastric load prepared with phenol red was administered via an orogastric tube (0.15 ml/mouse). The animals were killed by decapitation, and gastric emptying was estimated at 10 and 30 min after ingestion. The effects of the sulfated form of CCK-8 (CCK-8S) and of graded doses of atropine were examined. In addition, a proton pump inhibitor was administered to wild-type mice to examine the contribution of gastric acid to emptying.ResultsGastric emptying was significantly enhanced in mice lacking CCK-BR, as compared with wild-type and CCK-AR(−/−) mice. CCK-8S inhibited gastric emptying in mice with CCK-AR, but not in mice without CCK-AR. A proton pump inhibitor did not affect gastric emptying. Atropine dose dependently inhibited gastric emptying in all genotypes. The thickness of smooth muscle was comparable for all genotypes.ConclusionsThe gastric emptying of a nonnutrient liquid load was enhanced in mice without CCK-BR, although the precise mechanism is not known.
