3D polyelectrolyte scaffolds to mimic exocrine glands: a step towards a prostate-on-chip platform

The EuroBiotech Journal, 2018
We report our approach to creating a microfluidic chip (namely UroLOC) that mimics the acinar/tubular structure and the luminal microenvironment of exocrine glands.

Early stages of tooth development in the harbor porpoise Phocoena phocoena

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Here we describe the stages of tooth development in toothed whales on the basis of the harbor porpoise (Phocoena phocoena). The aim of the study was to find out whether these stages are identical to those of other mammals analyzed so far although toothed whales are homodont and monophyodont.

Innervation of the tubarial glands: A hypothesis‐driven anatomical review

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tubarial glands have been described as a macroscopic bilateral glandular complex in the posterolateral nasopharynx near the torus tubarius and the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube. Since their recognition on prostate‐specific membrane antigen‐based imaging, their anatomical classification has remained debated, with converging ...

Use of a dual genetic system to decipher exocrine cell fate conversions in the adult pancreas

Cell Discovery, 2023
Unraveling cell fate plasticity during tissue homeostasis and repair can reveal actionable insights for stem cell biology and regenerative medicine. In the pancreas, it remains controversial whether lineage transdifferentiation among the exocrine cells ...

Peripheral Blood DNA Methylation Changes Precede Lymphoma Diagnosis in Primary Sjögren's Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Primary Sjögren's disease (SjD) is a systemic autoimmune disease associated with an increased risk of lymphoma. The molecular mechanisms underlying lymphomagenesis remain poorly understood, and sensitive biomarkers for early identification of patients at high risk of developing lymphoma are lacking.

Sjogren′s syndrome

Journal of Indian Academy of Oral Medicine and Radiology, 2008
Sjogren′s syndrome (SS) is a chronic autoimmune disorder. It is characterized by dysfunction and destruction of exocrine glands associated with lymphocytic infiltrates and immunological hyperactivity.

Single‐cell RNA sequencing of peripheral blood defines two immunological subtypes of Sjögren's disease distinguished by anti‐SSA antibodies and aberrant B cell populations

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objectives Sjögren's disease (SjD) is a heterogeneous autoimmune disorder characterized by substantial clinical and molecular diversity. This heterogeneity raises key questions regarding the existence of distinct pathogenic mechanisms underlying disease subtypes.

An in vivo study of the effects on serum glucose, amylase and histopathology of the feline pancreatic tissue treated by focused ultrasound. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most malignant neoplasms originating in the digestive system. Focused ultrasound (FUS) treatment instead of the surgery operation has been used to treat Pancreatic cancer noninvasively in clinical trials. The endocrine and

Impact of the pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) shortage on prescribing in England: Analysis of national data

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) is essential for the management of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency. Since June 2023, the United Kingdom has been affected by a global shortage of PERT. We investigated the impact of this shortage on national prescribing trends for Creon, Nutrizym, Pancrex and Pangrol.
