✦ Synopsis

The vitro action of human and porcine pancreatic alpha-amylases on cyclomalto-oligosaccharides (cyclodextrins) was investigated both by a high-performance liquid chromatographic analysis and a quantitative analysis of the reducing power of cyclodextrin hydrolyzates. Cyclomalto-octaose (gamma-cyclodextrin) was hydrolyzed to produce mainly maltose, but cyclomalto-hexaose and -heptaose were little affected both by human and porcine alpha-amylases. Quantitative analysis of reducing power revealed that the ring-opening rate of gamma-cyclodextrin catalyzed by human pancreatic alpha-amylase was 2.8 times slower than that catalyzed by the porcine enzyme. The number of multiple attacks on gamma-cyclodextrin and its inhibitor constants for human pancreatic alpha-amylase and porcine pancreatic alpha-amylase were almost the same.

We report here the effect of histamine on amylase secretion in isolated lobules from the rat pancreas. Different concentrations of histamine increased amylase secretion, while the stimulatory effect was reduced by cimetidine although not by chlorpheniramine. These findings suggest that pancreatic lo
