1 Fatty acid chain length determines cholecystokinin secretion and effect on human gastric motility. Fatty Acids cholecystokinin Homo sapiens
2 BACKGROUND & AIMS: Fatty acids induce cholecystokinin (CCK) secretion and modify gastric motility, but the chain length requirements for these effects are not known. Fatty Acids cholecystokinin Homo sapiens
3 BACKGROUND & AIMS: Fatty acids induce cholecystokinin (CCK) secretion and modify gastric motility, but the chain length requirements for these effects are not known. Fatty Acids cholecystokinin Homo sapiens
4 RESULTS: Plasma CCK concentration was consistently and similarly elevated by fatty acids with a chain of 12 carbon atoms or longer, whereas those of 11 or fewer carbon atoms failed to increase plasma CCK. Fatty Acids cholecystokinin Homo sapiens
5 An additional, probably CCK-independent, effect of fatty acid also regulates proximal gastric tone. Fatty Acids cholecystokinin Homo sapiens
