Talk:Cholecystokinin

history of the name.
The article currently states that pancreozymin (PZ) is the old name for Cholecystokinin (CCK). This is inaccurate. Pancreozymin and Cholecystokinin were discovered separately for their effects on the pancreas and gall bladder (cholecyst). It was later discovered that they were in fact the same substance, so it was renamed Pancreozymin-cholecystokinin (abbreviated to PZ-CCK). Practically, scientists shorten this to CCK.--KX36 14:37, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Redirect from satiety?
I'm curious as to why satiety redirects to the CCK article; CCK is obviously an important regulator of hunger and satiety signals, but it is not the only one. Shouldn't there be an article on what causes feelings of fullness (e.g. CCK, leptin, GIP, gastric/intestinal stretching), since there's already an article on hunger?

Also the satiety value of different foods/nutrients.Gigemag76 (talk) 07:07, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

"I-cells"
If I need to know what "I-cells" are, with a link, I'm sure others do as well. --Wetman (talk) 17:39, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Not Printer-Friendly
I wanted a copy of this page for my research. This is frustrating. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.171.53.15 (talk) 23:22, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

"Satiety" should not redirect here
When I want to explain the concept of satiety to someone, I should be able to point to a Wikipedia article that explains it. Instead, the word "Cholecystokinin" shows up and I learn about a hormone, but not things like foods with low calorie-to-volume ratios. I'm not denying the role cholecystokinin plays in satiety, but I don't think cholecystokinin adequately serves as an article about satiety. 72.244.204.134 (talk) 04:05, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Digestive Hormone Picture
Although the picture on this page is very useful in understanding digestive hormones, it does not actually include CCK. Someone has made the mistake simply as gastrin (a promoter of digestion) is sometimes labelled as CCK-B due to their shared structure. In actuality CCK is a digestive inhibitor, as it says in the article, slowing digestion. I feel the picture should be left on, as it truely is helpful. The distinction simply needs to be made. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.171.101.79 (talk) 21:05, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

Secreted into the doudenum?
The second sentence seems to indicate the release of this endocrine hormone into the lumen of the small intestines. Pretty sure that is not correct, but not sure enough to change it ATM 69.138.157.32 (talk) 14:48, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

Del
I'm removing this from the page unless someone thinks it belongs and wants to repair it.

In the hypothalamus, CCK8 injection excites CRF neurosecretory neurons in par ventricular nucleus that is different cell responsive to pain stimulation:They show slow a 1 sec-hyperpolarizaiton with subsequent long (30min) depolarization to CCK8 injection (psychological stress), whereas tail pinch (physical stress), transient excitation. Consistently, in the cerebellum, Golgi cells express c-fos mRNA to CCK8 injection, whereas granule cells express junD mRNA to capsaicin injection to the limb skin. Thus, psychological and physical stress excite different neural path.

potomania but not water intoxication or polydipsia a cause of hyponatremia?
Is potomania a cause of hyponatremia, but not water intoxication or polydipsia?

Mention enterogastrone?
I'd like to mention enterogastrone in the initial paragraph for this article. Let me know if this could be a good addition. Somerandomuser (talk) 17:04, 7 June 2017 (UTC)

Error: "Joy Simcha Cohen" did not first suggest the existence of CCK
I have deleted, from the "Structure" section of this article, the claim that "The existence of CCK was first suggested in 1905 by the British physiologist Joy Simcha Cohen."

This claim is "substantiated" by 2 citations: (1) a Ph.D. dissertation by Gaia Vegezzi (2012); the claim appears on p. 9. (URL: https://www.repository.unipr.it/bitstream/1889/1931/1/VEGEZZI%20G_PhD%20thesis.pdf )

(2) a paper by Mark Tulchinsky (2016) (URL: https://appliedradiology.com/articles/applied-hepatobiliary-scintigraphy-in-chronic-gallbladder-diseases)

Neither work cites an original source for the claim.

A few sites on the Internet have copied the claim that appears in this article, but they don't cite an original source for it either.

A seach for "Joy Simcha Cohen" in connection with "CCK" reveals only a few word-for-word copies of Wikipedia's claim.

(By the way, "Simcha" is the Hebrew word for "Joy", which suggests that the name "Joy Simcha Cohen" was invented as a joke.)
