The site of action of
peripheral peptide YY (PYY)-induced inhibition of vagally stimulated
gastric acid secretion was studied using immunoneutralization with PYY
antibody in urethan-anesthetized rats. Gastric acid secretion (59 ± 7 µmol/90 min) stimulated by intracisternal injection of the
stable thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) analog RX-77368 (14 pmol/rat) was dose-dependently inhibited by 52%, 69%, and 83% by
intravenous infusion of 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 nmol · kg
1 · h
1 PYY,
respectively. PYY or PYY3-36 (2.4 pmol/rat) injected intracisternally also inhibited the acid response to intracisternal RX-77368 by 73% and 80%, respectively. Intravenous pretreatment with
PYY antibody (4.5 mg/rat), which shows a 35% cross-reaction with
PYY3-36 by RIA, completely prevented the inhibitory effect of intravenously infused PYY (1 nmol · kg
1 · h
1). When
injected intracisternally, the PYY antibody (280 µg/rat) reversed
intracisternal PYY (2.4 pmol)- and intravenous PYY (1 nmol · kg
1 · h
1)-induced
inhibition of acid response to intracisternal RX-77368 by 64% and
93.5%, respectively. These results provide supporting evidence that
peripheral PYY inhibits central vagal stimulation of gastric acid
secretion through an action in the brain.
