Identification of CCK-A receptors on chief cells with use of a novel, highly selective ligand.
Functional studies suggest that guinea pig chief cells have both cholecystokinin-A (CCK-A) and CCK-B receptors (CCK-A-R and CCK-B-R, respectively). However, all efforts to directly characterize the specific CCK-A-R using binding have been unsuccessful. Recent studies describe specific CCK-A-R agonists such as A-71378 ([desamino-Nle28,31-(N-methyl)Asp32]CCK heptapeptide]. In the present study, [D-Tyr-Gly]A-71378 was synthesized, which has > 300-fold selectivity for CCK-A-R and can be iodinated. [D-Tyr-Gly]A-71378 was equipotent to A-71378 in stimulating pepsinogen release from purified guinea pig chief cells. Binding of 125I-labeled [D-Tyr-Gly]A-71378 was saturable and specific. Potencies for inhibiting binding were as follows: [D-Tyr-Gly]A-71378 = A-71378 = 4x CCK octapeptide (CCK-8) > 1,000x des(SO4)-CCK-8, gastrin. In contrast, for 125I-gastrin binding they were CCK-8 > gastrin-17-I > des(SO4)-CCK-8 >> A-71378 or [D-Tyr-Gly]A-71378. Binding of [D-Tyr-Gly]A-71378 was best fitted by a two-site model. In contrast, 125I-gastrin binding was fitted with a single-site model. For inhibiting binding of 125I-[D-Tyr-Gly]A-71378, the CCK antagonists had relative affinities of L-364,718 >> L-365,260, and the reverse was true with 125I-gastrin. Correlation of binding with changes in biological activity suggested low-affinity CCK-A-R were mediating these changes. These results demonstrate directly for the first time that guinea pig chief cells possess CCK-A-R and CCK-B-R. The pharmacology of these CCK-A-R resembles those on other tissues. This novel, highly selective CCK-A ligand should be useful because it will identify CCK-A-R when they make up as little as 0.2% of the total CCK receptor number.

Partial agonism by gastrin for a cholecystokinin receptor mediating pepsinogen secretion.
Isolated gastric glands from rabbit were used to characterize the functional cholecystokinin (CCK)-like peptide receptors that mediate pepsinogen secretion. Pepsinogen secretion was stimulated by both CCK octapeptide sulfate (CCK-8) and A-71378, a selective CCK-A-type receptor agonist, with similar mean effective doses (1.0 and 0.8 nM, respectively). Compared with CCK-8, gastrin-17 (G-17-I) showed reduced potency and only partial efficacy for stimulation of pepsinogen secretion while inhibiting the maximal CCK-8-stimulated response. The nonpeptide inhibitors, asperlicin and L-364,718, inhibited pepsinogen secretion with identical pA2 values for antagonism of both CCK and gastrin, indicating that both peptides interact with the same functional receptor. Specific binding of [3H]CCK-8 to isolated chief cell membranes was displaced fully by both CCK and gastrin, indicating full receptor occupancy by both peptides. A novel synthetic peptide analogue, pseudogastrin [(Glu)5-Ala-Tyr-Nle-Gly-Trp-Nle-Asp-Phe-NH2], was used to investigate the structural basis for the lower potency and efficacy of G-17-I. The potency of CCK and gastrin analogues for pepsinogen secretion was found to be dependent on both sulfation of a tyrosine residue and the position of the tyrosine residue relative to the COOH-terminal phenylalanine amide. The efficacy appears to be determined partially by the extended NH2-terminal sequence of G-17-I. The results of the present study are interpreted to show that pepsinogen secretion is mediated by a CCK-A-type receptor and gastrin acts at the same receptor as a partial agonist.
