Popis: Background: We determined the effect of oral ingestion of sucrose polyester, which was approved as a fat replacer in the United States, on gallbladder motility and on the release of cholecystokinin, the hormone that mediates gallbladder emptying. Objective: Our objective was to measure effects of sucrose polyester on gallbladder emptying and cholecystokinin release. Design: Eight healthy volunteers (3 men and 5 women) drank 60 mL sucrose polyester, digestible fat, or saline solution in a balanced crossover design on 3 separate days. Results: Mean (∠ SEM) gallbladder emptying, when integrated over time, was low in response to both sucrose polyester (2150 ∠ 214 mL · 120 min) and saline solution (289 ∠ 123 mL · 120 min). In contrast, there was marked emptying in response to digestible fat (1069 ∠ 253 mL · 120 min). Sucrose polyester did not affect plasma cholecystokinin concentrations (29.3 ∠ 15.0 pmol · 120 min/L), whereas digestible fat resulted in a significant increase (89.5 ∠ 44.8 pmol · 120 min/L, P = 0.014) compared with saline solution (23.0 ∠ 13.8 pmol · 120 min/L). Conclusions: Ingestion of sucrose polyester, in contrast with digestible fat, did not stimulate gallbladder emptying or release of cholecystokinin. Am J Clin Nutr 1998;68:1272‐5.
