Effect of pancreatin on acute pancreatitis resulting from L-arginine administration in mice, a morpho-histopathological and biochemical study

Abstract Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a life-unpleasant situation with contradictory and inadequate treatments. In this regard, the present study evaluated the effect of the possible pretreatment of lipase-pancreatin on L-arginine-induced AP. Forty adult mice were selected and divided into five groups: I) ...

Síndrome de hipersecreción de lipasa y lesiones óseas en el cáncer de células acinares del páncreas

Rev. med. Chile; 150 (7), 2022
Lipase hypersecretion syndrome (LHS) is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome, associated with acinar cell carcinoma of the pancreas (ACCP) in 10% to 15% of patients. Clinically, LHS manifests itself with the appearance of subcutaneous fibrocystic nodules, associated with trophic changes in the overlying skin, ...

Histopathological changes in parotid gland following submandibular gland failure: an experimental animal study

Abstract Introduction: Submandibular glands are exposed to many effects due to diseases and therapeutic interventions. A study evaluating the effect of submandibular gland dysfunction on the parotid gland has not been presented in the literature. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the his...

Regeneration of Salivary Gland Defects of Diabetic Wistar Rats Post Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells Intraglandular Transplantation on Acinar Cell Vacuolization and Interleukin-10 Serum Level

Abstract Objective: To investigate the regeneration of rat's salivary gland diabetic defect after intraglandular transplantation of Human Dental Pulp Stem Cells (HDPSCs) on acinar cell vacuolization and Interleukin-10 (IL-10). Material and Methods: HDPSCs isolated from the dental pulp of first premolar...

Prostate specific antigen and acinar density: a new dimension, the "Prostatocrit"

Int. braz. j. urol; 43 (2), 2017
ABSTRACT Background Prostate-specific antigen densities have limited success in diagnosing prostate cancer. We emphasise the importance of the peripheral zone when considered with its cellular constituents, the “prostatocrit”. Objective Using zonal volumes and asymmetry of glandular acini...

Ultrastructure of the secretory epithelial cells of the bulbo-urethral glands (Cowper's gland) in the Indian fruit bat, Rousettus leschenaulti (Desmarest) during the reproductive cycle

Int. j. morphol; 35 (1), 2017
The present paper describes the ultrastructural characteristics of the bulbo-urethral gland (Cowper' glands) of the Indian fruit bat, R. leschenaulti during sexually inactive-breeding cycle. Cyclic histological changes during the seasonal breeding quiescence cycle are not well marked. There are no marked...
