Release of pancreatic juice is stimulated by

1. Enterokinase

Secretin is released from the duodenum in response to acidic chyme and stimulates the pancreas to secrete a bicarbonate-rich juice. Cholecystokinin mainly promotes enzyme-rich pancreatic secretion, not the primary release of pancreatic juice asked here.
