In this work we 1) synthesize rat CCK-58, 2) determine the amounts and forms of rat cholecystokinin in whole blood after stimulation of its release by casein, 3) determine the potency of CCK-8 and CCK-58 peptides to displace labeled CCK-8 from CCK-A and CCK-B receptors transfected into CHO cells, and 4) examine the biological actions of CCK-8 and rat CCK-58 in an anesthetized rat model. CCK-58 was the only detected endocrine form of cholecystokinin in rat blood. Synthetic rat CCK-58 was less potent that CCK-8 for displacing label from CCK-A and CCK-B receptors in transfected CHO cells. However, rat CCK-58 was more potent than CCK-8 for stimulation of pancreatic protein secretion in the anesthetized rat. In addition, CCK-58, but not CCK-8 stimulated fluid secretion in this anesthetized rat model. These data suggest that regions outside the C-terminus of rat CCK-58 influence the expression of cholecystokinin biological activity. The presence of only CCK-58 in the circulation and the fact that its biological activity differs from CCK-8 suggests that CCK-58 deserves scrutiny in other physiological models of cholecystokinin activity.
