| Targets |
Secretin receptor (a G-protein-coupled receptor). Activation stimulates the adenylate cyclase (AC)/protein kinase A (PKA) pathway and increases intracellular Ca²⁺ concentration. Rat and human secretin receptors share 81% identity. Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) binds to secretin receptors with an affinity similar to secretin. [1]

| ln Vitro |
Rats' release of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is inhibited by secretin (33-59), which also specifically blocks the glucocorticoid response to ACTH in zona fasciculata reticularis (ZF/R) cells [1]. In the rat cerebellum, the secretin retrograde messenger facilitates GABA transmission [2].
Secretin (at 10⁻⁷ M) maximally enhanced aldosterone production (2.4-fold increase) by dispersed rat zona glomerulosa (ZG) cells. [1] Secretin did not affect basal corticosterone production by dispersed rat zona fasciculata/reticularis (ZF/R) cells. [1] Secretin inhibited both submaximally (10⁻¹⁰ M ACTH) and maximally (10⁻⁸ M ACTH) stimulated corticosterone secretion from dispersed rat ZF/R cells. [1] Secretin did not stimulate corticosterone secretion in cultured murine adrenal tumor cells. [1] Secretin enhanced catecholamine synthesis in rat PC12 pheochromocytoma cells. [1] |
| ln Vivo |
In rats, a single subcutaneous (SC) bolus of Secretin (30 nmol/kg) moderately attenuated the injection stress-induced rise in plasma ACTH at 60 min, but significantly increased ACTH levels above control at 120 min. [1]
Prolonged SC administration of Secretin (10 or 30 nmol/kg/day for 6 days) markedly elevated basal blood ACTH concentration in rats. [1] A single SC bolus of Secretin (30 nmol/kg) increased plasma aldosterone levels at 120 min in rats. [1] Chronic treatment with Secretin (10 or 30 nmol/kg/day for 6 days) stably elevated basal plasma aldosterone in rats. [1] A single SC injection of Secretin (30 nmol/kg) caused a 60% suppression of the stress-induced corticosterone rise at 60 min, followed by a rebound increase above control at 120 min in rats. [1] Chronic Secretin treatment (10 or 30 nmol/kg/day for 6 days) increased basal plasma corticosterone and adrenal gland weight in rats. [1] One study reported no change in rat plasma corticosterone 60 min after an intraperitoneal (IP) bolus of Secretin (dose unspecified). [1] |
| Cell Assay |
Steroidogenic effects were assessed using dispersed adrenocortical cells. Rat adrenal glands were decapsulated to isolate the zona glomerulosa (ZG). The remaining tissue (zona fasciculata/reticularis, ZF/R) was processed separately. Tissues were minced and digested with collagenase to obtain dispersed cells. Cells were incubated in appropriate culture medium. Aldosterone production was measured in ZG cell incubations. Corticosterone production, both basal and in response to ACTH stimulation, was measured in ZF/R cell incubations. Steroid hormone concentrations in the incubation media were quantified by radioimmunoassay. [1]
The effect on catecholamine synthesis was studied using the rat PC12 pheochromocytoma cell line. [1] |
| Animal Protocol |
Acute Study: Rats received a single subcutaneous (SC) bolus injection of Secretin at a dose of 30 nmol/kg. Blood samples were collected at 60 and 120 minutes post-injection for the measurement of plasma ACTH, aldosterone, and corticosterone levels. The injection procedure itself served as a mild stressor. [1]
Chronic Study: Rats were treated with Secretin via daily subcutaneous (SC) injection for 6 consecutive days at doses of 10 or 30 nmol/kg per day. Following the treatment period, animals were euthanized, and blood was collected to determine basal hormone concentrations. Adrenal glands were excised and weighed. [1] In a separate experiment, Secretin was administered as a single intraperitoneal (IP) bolus injection, and plasma corticosterone was measured 60 minutes later. [1] |

| Additional Infomation |
Secretin is a 27-amino acid peptide belonging to the vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP)-secretin-glucagon family. It is expressed in the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. Its receptors are also present in these brain regions, but the evidence for the presence of receptors in the adrenal glands is based on indirect evidence from functional studies. [1] Secretin regulates the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis through a complex mechanism. It can stimulate the release of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), which may be achieved by activating hypothalamic receptors and CRH-releasing hormone (CRH) neurons. It directly stimulates the secretion of aldosterone by zona glomerulosa (ZG) cells, but inhibits the production of glucocorticoids by ZF/R cells stimulated by ACTH. The peptide may also indirectly affect adrenal function by regulating adrenal blood flow or medullary chromaffin cell activity. [1] Food intake-induced physiological secretin secretion may be associated with increased adrenal steroid secretion related to food intake. [1]
