PG - 183-93 AB - The aim of this study was to determine the influence of mechanically induced duodenal distension (DD) and PD 140.548 N-methyl-D-glucamine (a specific peptide antagonist of a CCK1 receptor) premedication on mechanographical reticulo-ruminal activity, animal general behaviour, catecholamines (CA) and the blood plasma cortisol levels, as well as the clinical symptoms of visceral pain induced by DD in sheep. After 24 h fasting, 6 animals, Polish merino sheep were praeanaesthetised by i.m. injection of ketamine (20 mg x kg(-1) b.w.) and anaesthetised with i.v. infusion of pentobarbital (20 mg x kg(-1) b.w.) and a permanent stainless steel cannula (gate cannula) was inserted inside the lateral cerebral ventricle (controlled by cerebrospinal fluid efflux) 10 mm above the bregma and 5 mm laterally from the midline suture using stereotaxic method. Under the same general anaesthesia and analgesia a T-shaped silicon cannula, was inserted into the duodenum (12 cm from pylorus) and a second one was inserted into the dorsal sac of the rumen. During 7 consecutive days after surgery each animal was treated i.m. with procaine penicillin (300000 I.U..kg(-1) b.w.), dihydrostreptomycine (DHS, 10 microg x kg(-1) b.w.), prednisolone acetate 1.2 mg x kg(-1) b.w.) together and i.m. injection of ketamine (20 mg x kg(-1) b.w.), separetely. The influence of PD 140.548 N-methyl-D-glucamine on the unfavourable effects of duodenal distension using a 10 cm long balloon filled with 40 and 80 ml (DD40 and DD80) water at animal body temperature was investigated in this study. Five minutes DD40 and DD80 caused an immediate and compete inhibition of the reticulo-ruminal frequency, a significant increase in plasma CA and cortisol levels, an increase in the heart rate, hyperventilation and other symptoms of pain, proportionally to the degree of intestinal distension. Intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) administration of PD 140.548 alone at a dose of 0.25, 0.5, 1 or 2 mg in toto did not significantly change the reticulo-ruminal motility, CA and cortisol concentrations, but 10 min after the i.c.v. infusion (or 10 min before DD) at a dose 1 and 2 mg in toto , it completely blocked the increase of blood plasma cortisol, epinephrine (E), norepinephrine (NE) and dopamine (DA) concentrations for 20 min. In the some time it prevented the reticulo-ruminal atony provocked by DD. It is concluded that PD 140.548 N-methyl-D-glucamine--an antagonist of the central CCK1 receptor can be an effective analgesic agent in duodenal pain. This action is due to the inhibition of peripheral CCK1 type receptor in the central descending nerve pathway, facilitating pain transmission in sheep perhaps in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
