Obstruction of the common bile duct in the rat (albino, Rockland strain) stimulated pancreatic secretion beginning several hours after obstruction, and lasting as long as 7 days. Bile acid (sodium dehydrocholate) injected intraperitoneally did not change basal pancreatic secretion, but did increase bile secretion. When secretin injection was followed by bile acid, there was a marked increase over the secretin-stimulated secretion. Clinical implications of this mechanism are discussed.
