Pancreatic phospholipase A2 activity in acute pancreatitis: A prognostic marker for early identification of patients at risk [PDF]

, 2002
Remarkably elevated levels of phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) are measurable in human blood samples in cases of acute pancreatitis. The source of the enzyme was first thought to be exclusively the pancreas, but now it is generally accepted that two ...

On the Insulin Content of Pancreatic Juice.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1950
SummaryCommarized insulin added to fresh pancreatic juice can be extracted from the juice and its effect noted on the glucose uptake by the diaphragm in quantities as small as 0.0045 unit per milliliter juice.In extracting pancreatic juice alone, no clear-cut demonstration of insulin effect (i.e., an increase in glucose uptake of 50-100%) could be ...

Deep sequencing of cancer-related genes revealed GNAS mutations to be associated with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms and its main pancreatic duct dilation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
To clarify the genetic mutations associated with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) and IPMN-related pancreatic tumours, we conducted cancer-related gene profiling analyses using pure pancreatic juice and resected pancreatic tissues.Pure ...

Which Suture Material is Optimal for Pancreaticojejunostomy Anastomosis? An In Vitro Study

Journal of Investigative Surgery, 2017
Background: Which suture material is optimal for pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) anastomosis is a matter of debate with contradictory results. The aim of the present in vitro study was to determine the effects of pancreatic juice, bile, and their mixture on ...

Cyclic AMP signalling in pancreatic islets [PDF]

, 2010
Cyclic 3'5'AMP (cAMP) is an important physiological amplifier of glucose-induced insulin secretion by the pancreatic islet β-cell, where it is formed by the activity of adenylyl cyclases, which are stimulated by glucose, through elevation in ...
