Pancreatic exocrine secretion is known to be facilitated by @entity356 via long- and short-route reflexes. In this study, we studied the effects of gastric @entity788 and blood @entity9959 level as well as pancreatic exocrine secretion. Mongrel @entity235 were anesthetized with @entity3652 and thiopental, and immediately decerebrated. This study consisted of two series of experiments. In the first series, efferent discharges in an intra- @entity788 were recorded, and its responses to antral distension were analyzed. In the second series, effects of antral distension on pancreatic exocrine secretion and blood @entity9959 level were observed before and after vagotomy in splanchnicectomized @entity235 . Efferent discharges in a @entity788 were @entity101 . Neither vagotomy nor splanchnicectomy produced obvious changes in the neural response. In splanchnicectomized @entity235 , antral distension elevated blood @entity9959 level and increased pancreatic exocrine secretion. After subsequent vagotomy, these effects were reduced, but the increases were still greater than 50%. These results indicate that the antro-pancreatic short-route reflex plays a significant role in exocrine secretion, and also suggest that @entity9959 release is @entity101 independent of blood @entity413 level.
