Unraveling the Self-Assembly of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa XcpQ Secretin Periplasmic Domain Provides New Molecular Insights into Type II Secretion System Secreton Architecture and Dynamics

open access: yesmBio, 2017
The type II secretion system (T2SS) releases large folded exoproteins across the envelope of many Gram-negative pathogens. This secretion process therefore requires specific gating, interacting, and dynamics properties mainly operated by a bipartite ...

Signaling Modification by GPCR Heteromer and Its Implication on X-Linked Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The involvement of secretin (SCT) and secretin receptor (SCTR) in regulating body water homeostasis is well established. Identified as one of the vasopressin (Vp)-independent mechanisms in fluid balance, SCT regulates aquaporin 2 (AQP2) in the kidney ...

Cardiac fibrosis induced by high‐fat diet in ApoE‐deficient male mice is exacerbated by genetic deletion of PACAP–PAC1 signaling

open access: yesJournal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Cardiac fibrosis is characterized by an excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins and occurs in a variety of cardiac diseases, such as the highly prevalent syndrome heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and other cardiac disorders.

Blockade of multidrug resistance associated proteins aggravates acute pancreatitis and blunts atrial natriuretic factor beneficial effect in rats: Role of MRP4/ABCC4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We previously reported that atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) stimulates secretin-evoked cAMP efflux through multidrug resistance-associated protein 4 (MRP4) in the exocrine pancreas.

Medical Management of Polycystic Liver Disease: A Position Statement From the European Reference Network on Hepatological Diseases

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Polycystic liver disease (PLD) is a rare genetic disorder characterised by progressive liver enlargement due to multiple cysts. The main symptoms are liver volume‐related. Although randomised controlled trials have shown that somatostatin analogues (SSAs) reduce liver volume as well as symptoms, specific guidance on when and how to use SSAs in

Detection of Exocrine Dysfunction by MRI in Patients with Early Chronic Pancreatitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Purpose To determine if T1-weighted MR signal of the pancreas can be used to detect early CP. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 51 suspected CP patients, who had both secretin-enhanced magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (

Atypical p38 Kinase Signaling in Retinal Vascular Damage and Recovery

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 24, 31 December 2025.
Using an oxygen‐induced retinopathy model, we demonstrate that Tab1‐dependent atypical p38 activation contributes to retinal vascular injury. Genetic blockade of this pathway protects against pathological neovascularization by modulating transcriptional programs.

Structure and assembly of pilotin-dependent and -independent secretins of the type II secretion system.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2019
The type II secretion system (T2SS) is a cell envelope-spanning macromolecular complex that is prevalent in Gram-negative bacterial species. It serves as the predominant virulence mechanism of many bacteria including those of the emerging human pathogens
