Cholecystokinin is produced by I-cells in the lining of the duodenum and is also released by some neurons in the brain. It acts on two types of receptors found throughout the gut and central nervous system. The most recognised functions of this hormone are in digestion and appetite.holecystokinin is produced by I-cells in the lining of the duodenum and is also released by some neurons in the brain.

The human liver produces approximately 400ml to 800ml of bile each day. Hepatocytes of the liver secrete bile, which is then released into the canaliculi before entering the bile ducts.The bile ducts add to this secretion a liquid rich with bicarbonates. Next, a hormone called cholecystokinin (CCK), causes gall bladder contraction, which discharges bile into the duodenum.he human liver produces approximately 400ml to 800ml of bile each day.
