The study was designed to understand diseased states ( eg diabetes mellitus, pancreatitis, gastric ulcers, cataractogenisis and the dry eye syndrome) compared to healthy conditions. The results have demonstrated that, in addition to parasympathetic nerves, the pancreas, parotid and the lacrimal glands are innervated with adrenergic and non-cholinergic, non-adrenergic (peptidergic) nerves. Stimulation of these intrinsic secretomotor nerves can result in the secretion of proteins and enzymes from the pancreas, the parotid and lacrimal glands. Exogenous application of either acetylcholine (ACh), noradrenaline (NA), or a number of neuropeptides (vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), substance P, neuropeptide Y (NPY) and several others), can elicit protein and enzyme secretion. Apart from nervous control, exocrine pancreatic secretion is regulated by both endocrine and paracrine hormones. Cholecystokinin-octapeptide (CCK), secretin and histamine can stimulate protein and enzyme secretion from the pancreas. In addition to innervation pattern, this study also investigated the cellular mechanisms of stimulus-secretion coupling. The results have shown that there are four functionally distinct intracellular signalling pathways via which secretagogues (neurotransmitters, hormones and drugs) can elicit their responses in secretory epithelial cells.
