Abstract
Astrocytes, the most numerous glial cells in the brain, play an important role in preserving normal neural functions and mediating the pathogenesis of neurological disorders. Recent studies have shown that astrocytes are GABAceptive and GABAergic astrocytes express GABAA receptors, GABAB receptors, and GABA transporter proteins to capture and internalize GABA. GABAceptive astrocytes thus influence both inhibitory and excitatory neurotransmission by controlling the levels of extracellular GABA. Furthermore, astrocytes synthesize and release GABA to directly regulate brain functions. In this review, we highlight recent research progresses that support astrocytes as GABAceptive and GABAergic cells. We also summarize the roles of GABAceptive and GABAergic astrocytes that serve as an inhibitory node in the intercellular communication in the brain. Besides, we discuss future directions for further expanding our knowledge on the GABAceptive and GABAergic astrocyte signaling.

Abstract
The gut plays a central role in energy homeostasis. Food intake regulation strongly relies on the gut-brain axis, and numerous studies have pointed out the significant role played by gut hormones released from enteroendocrine cells. It is well known that digestive products of dietary protein possess a high satiating effect compared to carbohydrates and fat. Nevertheless, the processes occurring in the gut during protein digestion involved in the short-term regulation of food intake are still not totally unraveled. This review provides a concise overview of the current data concerning the implication of food-derived peptides in the peripheral regulation of food intake with a focus on the gut hormones cholecystokinin and glucagon-like peptide 1 regulation and the relationship with some aspects of glucose homeostasis.

Abstract
Dietary protein is a major stimulant for cholecystokinin (CCK) secretion by the intestinal I cell, however, the mechanism by which protein is detected is unknown. Indirect functional evidence suggests that PepT1 may play a role in CCK-mediated changes in gastric motor function. However, it is unclear whether this oligopeptide transporter directly or indirectly activates the I cell. Using both the CCK-expressing enteroendocrine STC-1 cell and acutely isolated native I cells from CCK-enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) mice, we aimed to determine whether PepT1 directly activates the enteroendocrine cell to elicit CCK secretion in response to oligopeptides. Both STC-1 cells and isolated CCK-eGFP cells expressed PepT1 transcripts. STC-1 cells were activated, as measured by ERK(1/2) phosphorylation, by both peptone and the PepT1 substrate Cefaclor; however, the PepT1 inhibitor 4-aminomethyl benzoic acid (AMBA) had no effect on STC-1 cell activity. The PepT1-transportable substrate glycyl-sarcosine dose-dependently decreased gastric motility in anesthetized rats but had no affect on activation of STC-1 cells or on CCK secretion by CCK-eGFP cells. CCK secretion was significantly increased in response to peptone but not to Cefaclor, cephalexin, or Phe-Ala in CCK-eGFP cells. Taken together, the data suggest that PepT1 does not directly mediate CCK secretion in response to PepT1 specific substrates. PepT1, instead, may have an indirect role in protein sensing in the intestine.

Abstract
The field of cholecystokinin (CCK) stimulation of exocrine pancreatic secretion has experienced major changes in the recent past. This review attempts to summarize the present status of the field. CCK production in the intestinal I cells, the molecular forms of CCK produced and subsequently circulated in the blood, the presence or absence of CCK receptors on the isolated pancreatic acinar cells and the associated signaling for acinar cell secretion, and the actual circuits and sites of action for CCK regulation of exocrine pancreatic secretion in vivo are reviewed in different animal species with an emphasis on birds, rodents, and humans. Clear differences in the relative importance of neural and direct modes of CCK action on pancreatic acinar cells were identified. Rodents seem to be endowed with both modes of action, whereas in humans the neural mode may predominate. In birds, such as duck, the direct mode needs further assistance from pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide/VIP receptors. However, much further work needs to be directed to the neural mode to map out all sites of CCK action and details of the full circuits, and we foresee a major revival for this field of research in the near future.

Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated that gastric mucosa contained high levels of the polypeptide diazepam binding inhibitor, the endogenous ligand of the peripheral-type benzodiazepine receptor (PBR). However, the expression and function of this receptor protein in these tissues have not been investigated. Immunohistochemistry identified an intense PBR immunoreactivity in the mucous and parietal cells of rat gastric fundus and in the mucous cells of antrum. Immunoelectron microscopy revealed the mitochondrial localization of PBR in these cells. Binding of isoquinoline PK 11195 and benzodiazepine Ro5-4864 to gastric membranes showed that fundus had more PBR-binding sites than antrum, displaying higher affinity for PK 11195 than Ro5-4864. In a Ussing chamber, PK 11195 and Ro5-4864 increased short-circuit current (I(sc)) in fundic and antral mucosa in a concentration-dependent manner in the presence of GABA(A) and central benzodiazepine receptor (CBR) blockers. This increase in I(sc) was abolished after external Cl(-) substitution and was sensitive to chloride channels or transporter inhibitors. PK 11195-induced chloride secretion was also 1) sensitive to verapamil and extracellular calcium depletion, 2) blocked by thapsigargin and intracellular calcium depletion, and 3) abolished by the mitochondrial pore transition complex inhibitor cyclosporine A. PK 11195 had no direct effect on H(+) secretion, indicating that it stimulates a component of Cl(-) secretion independent of acid secretion in fundic mucosa. These data demonstrate that mucous and parietal cells of the gastric mucosa express mitochondrial PBR functionally coupled to Ca(2+)-dependent Cl(-) secretion, possibly involved in the gastric mucosa protection.

Abstract
Dietary protein but not amino acids stimulates cholecystokinin (CCK) secretion in rat mucosal cells. However, the dietary protein sensory mechanisms and the intracellular signal pathway in the enteroendocrine cells have not yet been clarified. The relationship between dietary protein binding to cell membrane and intracellular calcium responses were examined in the CCK-producing enteroendocrine cell line STC-1. The binding of solubilized STC-1 cell membrane to proteins was analyzed using a surface plasmon resonance sensor. Intracellular calcium concentrations of STC-1 cell suspensions loaded with Fura-2 AM were measured using a spectrafluorophotometer system with continuous stirring. Intracellular calcium concentrations in STC-1 cells were increased by exposure to alpha-casein or casein sodium, but not to bovine serum albumin. Solubilized STC-1 membranes bound to alpha-casein and casein sodium but did not bind to bovine serum albumin. alpha-Casein demonstrated higher membrane binding and intracellular calcium stimulating activities than casein sodium. Thus, protein binding to the STC-1 cell membrane and intracellular calcium responses were correlated. Intracellular calcium responses to alpha-casein were suppressed by an L-type calcium channel blocker. These results suggest that casein, a dietary protein, binds to a putative receptor on the CCK-producing enteroendocrine cell membrane and elicits the subsequent intracellular calcium response via an L-type calcium channel.

Abstract
Studies in vitro suggest that cephalosporin antibiotics release the gut hormone cholecystokinin. Cholecystokinin is known to inhibit gastric emptying. Here we examine the effects of cefaclor on gastric emptying and intestinal motility. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fitted with gastric cannulas. Following a 3-week recovery, the rate of gastric emptying of saline, peptone (4.5%) or cefaclor was determined after instillation into the gastric cannula, while intestinal transit was measured by using the propagation of arabic gum + charcoal mixture given intraduodenally. Gastric emptying of saline was significantly delayed by the addition of cefaclor (3, 10, 30 or 100 mM). The CCK-A antagonist SR-27897B (1 mg kg(-1), i.p.) reversed the delay induced by 10 mM cefaclor, whereas the CCK-B antagonist CI-988 (1 mg kg(-1), i.p.) had no significant effect. In capsaicin-treated rats, 10 mM cefaclor emptied more rapidly than in vehicle-treated animals. Thirty-minute intestinal transit was increased at 30 and 100 mM of cefaclor, while the gastric acid secretion following cefaclor instillation was no different than the group which received saline. The cephalosporin antibiotic cefaclor appears to be a potent stimulant of CCK release from gut endocrine cells, resembling the effects of peptone. Cefaclor delays gastric emptying via capsaicin-sensitive afferent pathways, which involve CCK-A receptor interaction.

Abstract
Long-chain fatty acids are potent stimulants of secretin and CCK release. The cellular mechanisms of fatty acid-stimulated secretion of these two hormones are not clear. We studied the stimulatory effect and mechanism of sodium oleate (SO) on secretin- and CCK-producing cells. SO stimulated the release of secretin or CCK from isolated rat mucosal cell preparations enriched in either secretin- or CCK-producing cells, respectively. SO also time- and dose-dependently stimulated secretin and CCK release from STC-1 cells. In STC-1 cells, SO-stimulated secretin and CCK release was potentiated by IBMX and inhibited by a protein kinase A-selective inhibitor and a cAMP-specific antagonist. SO-stimulated releases of the two hormones were also inhibited by downregulation or inhibitors of protein kinase C, a calmodulin antagonist and an inhibitor of calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II. Chelating of extracellular Ca(2+) or addition of an L-type calcium channel blocker diminished SO-stimulated hormone releases. SO caused an increase in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration that was partially reversed by diltiazem but had no effect on production of cAMP, cGMP, or inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate. These results indicate that SO acts on secretin- and CCK-producing cells. Its stimulatory effect is potentiated by endogenous protein kinase A and mediated by activation of Ca(2+) influx through the L-type channels and of protein kinase C and Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II.

Abstract
Recently, we isolated a trypsin-sensitive cholecystokinin-releasing peptide (CCK-RP) from porcine and rat intestinal mucosa. The amino acid sequence of this peptide was determined to be identical to that of the diazepam-binding inhibitor (DBI). To test the role of DBI in pancreatic secretion and responses to feeding, we used pancreaticobiliary and intestinal cannula to divert bile-pancreatic juice from anesthetized rats. Within 2 hours, this treatment caused a 2-fold increase in pancreatic protein output and a >10-fold increase in plasma CCK. Luminal DBI levels increased 4-fold. At 5 hours after diversion of bile-pancreatic juice, each of these measures returned to basal levels. Intraduodenal infusion of peptone evoked a 5-fold increase in the concentration of luminal DBI. In separate studies, we demonstrated that intraduodenal administration of antiserum to a DBI peptide specifically abolished pancreatic secretion and the increase in plasma CCK levels after diversion of bile-pancreatic juice. To demonstrate that DBI mediates the postprandial rise in plasma CCK levels, we showed that intraduodenal administration of 5% peptone induced dramatic increases in pancreatic secretion and plasma CCK, effects that could be blocked by intraduodenal administration of anti-DBI antiserum. Hence, DBI, a trypsin-sensitive CCK-RP secreted from the proximal small bowel, mediates the feedback regulation of pancreatic secretion and the postprandial release of CCK.
