Background
Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a gastrointestinal peptide hormone released by enteroendocrine cells (I cells) of the small intestine and from specific neurons in the myenteric plexus and brain. CCK is generated from a 115 amino acid prepro-CCK polypeptide that is cleaved to form the largest circulating form, CCK-58. Sequential N-terminal cleavage of CCK-58 generates numerous intermediate CCK peptides (CCK-39, -33, -22, -12, and -8) displaying biological activity. The 5 C-terminal amino acids of CCK are identical to those in gastrin, with both peptides sharing a sulfated C-terminal tyrosine residue. CCK regulates numerous gastric processes, including gallbladder contraction, gastric emptying, intestinal motility, pancreatic exocrine secretion, as well as neurological functions including learning and memory, nociception, and satiety. These functions are carried out via two known CCK receptors, CCK1 and CCK2, that are members of the family A seven transmembrane domain containing G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). CCK1 displays preferential binding to sulfated CCK, whereas CCK2 binds both gastrin and CCK with equal affinity. CCK1 receptors are expressed most prominently in the gastrointestinal tract, and myenteric plexus and vagal afferents, while CCK2 is expressed in the brain and stomach. Both CCK1 and CCK2 receptors signal primarily through Gq/11 alpha subunits to simulate phospholipase C and increase intracellular calcium.
