Autoantibodies against the Second Extracellular Loop of M3R Do neither Induce nor Indicate Primary Sjögren's Syndrome. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 OBJECTIVES:Anti-muscarinic acetylcholine type-3 receptor (anti-M3R) autoantibodies have been suggested to be pathogenic for primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS), and the second extracellular loop of M3R is suspected to carry a disease-promoting epitope.

Organogenesis of the exocrine gland
Developmental Biology, 2004 Morphogenesis of exocrine glands is a complex stepwise process of epithelial ingrowth, ductal elongation, ductal branching, and alveolar or acinar differentiation. Emerging from an increasing number of mouse gene knockout, dominant-negative, and antisense models is the identification of a remarkable collection of cell adhesion molecules, growth factors,

Beneficial effects of physical exercise on the exocrine pancreas
Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2015 The pancreas is a retroperitoneal organ critically important for intestinal digestion. Most of the pancreas consists of exocrine glands that synthesize and secrete a great majority of digestive enzymes into the pancreatic duct tributaries and on into the
