Pancreatic acinar cells were stimulated with 1 nM CCK-8 alone, in the presence of 50 mM ethanol (EtOH), after preincubation in the presence of 1 mM of the alcohol dehydrogenase inhibitor 4-MP or following preincubation in the presence of 10 μM of the antioxidant cinnamtannin B-1 (CinB). Following CCK-8 stimulation, the peak [Ca2+]i response, the "steady-state level" achieved five minutes after application of the stimulus, the total Ca2+ mobilization and the rate of decay of [Ca2+]i towards basal values were calculated (*, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001 vs CCK-8; †, P < 0.05; ††, P < 0.01 vs CCK-8 plus EtOH). |
