Conduction of activity between muscles in the terminal region of the common bile duct and in the neighboring duodenum [PDF]
The relationship between muscle activity at the terminal region of the common bile duct and the duodenal muscle was examined in rabbits. The rhythmic muscle activity in the terminal region was synchronous with duodenal muscle activity.

The relationship between obesity and cholesterol cholelithiasis is not well understood at physiologic or genetic levels. To clarify whether obesity per se leads to increased prevalence of cholelithiasis, we examined cholesterol gallstone susceptibility ...

Protective effects of urocortin 2 against caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis. [PDF]
Because little is known about the role of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) agonists in regulating responses in pancreatitis, we evaluated the effects of urocortin 2 (UCN2) and stressin1 in caerulein-induced acute pancreatitis (AP) model in rats. Male

Regulation of CCK-induced ERK1/2 activation by PKC epsilon in rat pancreatic acinar cells
The extracellular signal-regulated kinase ERK1/2 is activated in pancreatic acinar cells by cholecystokinin (CCK) and other secretagogues with this activation mediated primarily by protein kinase C (PKC).

Appetite controlled by a cholecystokinin nucleus of the solitary tract to hypothalamus neurocircuit
The nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) is a key gateway for meal-related signals entering the brain from the periphery. However, the chemical mediators crucial to this process have not been fully elucidated.

A double-label study of efferent projections from the Edinger-Westphal nucleus in goldfish and kelp bass [PDF]
The Edinger-Westphal nucleus in goldfish was identified by retrograde labeling from the ciliary ganglion. In the same animals a few neurons near this nucleus (perinuclear Edinger-Westphal neurons) were labeled by a different retrograde tracer injected ...

Utilizing Peptide Ligand GPCRs to Image and Treat Pancreatic Cancer
It is estimated that early detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) could increase long-term patient survival by as much as 30% to 40% (Seufferlein, T. et al., Nat. Rev. Gastroenterol. Hepatol. 2016, 13, 74–75).
