Histological Study of Exocrine Portion of Pancreas in Guinea fowl (Numida meleagris)
The histological structure of the exocrine pancreas was examined in the current study for fifteen healthy adult female Laying hens. The study showed the pancreas was serous tubuloacinar gland, which has both an exocrine and an endocrine component, the ...

Mechanisms of convergence and extension by cell intercalation
The cells of many embryonic tissues actively narrow in one dimension (convergence) and lengthen in the perpendicular dimension (extension). Convergence and extension are ubiquitous and important tissue movements in metazoan morphogenesis. In vertebrates, the dorsal axial and paraxial mesodermal tissues, the notochordal and somitic mesoderm, converge ...

Renal type a intercalated cells contain albumin in organelles with aldosterone-regulated abundance. [PDF]
Albumin has been identified in preparations of renal distal tubules and collecting ducts by mass spectrometry. This study aimed to establish whether albumin was a contaminant in those studies or actually present in the tubular cells, and if so, identify ...

Autoantibodies against intercalated cells in Sjögren's syndrome [PDF]
To the Editor: Recently, Bae et al. reported on a 43-year-old woman presenting with distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) associated with Sjogren’s syndrome. Confirming earlier reports, they showed decreased immunostaining for Hþ ATPase in the cortical collecting duct of the patient.

The AE4 transporter mediates kidney acid-base sensing
The kidney plays a key role in the correction of systemic acid-base imbalances. Central for this regulation are the intercalated cells in the distal nephron, which secrete acid or base into the urine.

Collecting Duct Intercalated Cell Function and Regulation [PDF]
Intercalated cells are kidney tubule epithelial cells with important roles in the regulation of acid-base homeostasis. However, in recent years the understanding of the function of the intercalated cell has become greatly enhanced and has shaped a new model for how the distal segments of the kidney tubule integrate salt and water reabsorption ...

The (Pro)renin receptor (P)RR/Atp6ap2 is a cell surface protein capable of binding and non-proteolytically activate prorenin. Additionally, (P)RR is associated with H(+)-ATPases and alternative functions in H(+)-ATPase regulation as well as in Wnt ...

Aqp2-Expressing Cells Give Rise to Renal Intercalated Cells [PDF]
The mammalian collecting duct comprises principal and intercalated cells, which maintain sodium/water and acid/base balance, respectively, but the epigenetic contributors to the differentiation of these cell types remain unknown. Here, we investigated whether the histone H3 K79 methyltransferase Dot1l, which is highly expressed in principal cells ...

Cell-Specific Cre Strains For Genetic Manipulation in Salivary Glands. [PDF]
The secretory acinar cells of the salivary gland are essential for saliva secretion, but are also the cell type preferentially lost following radiation treatment for head and neck cancer.

Myosin II Dynamics Are Regulated by Tension in Intercalating Cells [PDF]
Axis elongation in Drosophila occurs through polarized cell rearrangements driven by actomyosin contractility. Myosin II promotes neighbor exchange through the contraction of single cell boundaries, while the contraction of myosin II structures spanning multiple pairs of cells leads to rosette formation.
