Gastrinoma de localização pilórica numa doente com úlcera péptica recorrente.
We report a clinical case of a woman, 56 years old, with a history of duodenal ulcer and esophagitis, under medication with H2 receptors blockers during 3 years. Plasma basal gastrin was near normal levels. A stimulation test with secretin was compatible

Etiology and pathogenesis of duodenal mucosa lesion in chronic pancreatitis
Aim. To measure content of neuromediators (acetylcholine - Ach, serotonin - 5-NT) and gastrointestinal hormones (cholecystokinine - CCK and secretin) in the blood serum of patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP); to study protective properties of the ...

Architecture of the type IVa pilus machine [PDF]
Many bacteria, including important pathogens, move by projecting grappling-hook–like extensions called type IV pili from their cell bodies. After these pili attach to other cells or objects in their environment, the bacteria retract the pili to pull ...

Structure of a type IV pilus machinery in the open and closed state
Proteins of the secretin family form large macromolecular complexes, which assemble in the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. Secretins are major components of type II and III secretion systems and are linked to extrusion of type IV pili (T4P) and

Structural and functional divergence of growth hormone-releasing hormone receptors in early sarcopterygians: lungfish and Xenopus [PDF]
The evolutionary trajectories of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) receptor remain enigmatic since the discovery of physiologically functional GHRH-GHRH receptor (GHRHR) in non-mammalian vertebrates in 2007.

Biliary Bicarbonate Secretion Constitutes a Protective Mechanism against Bile Acid-Induced Injury in Man [PDF]
Background: Cholangiocytes expose a striking resistance against bile acids: while other cell types, such as hepatocytes, are susceptible to bile acid-induced toxicity and apoptosis already at micromolar concentrations, cholangiocytes are continuously ...
