This process, termed acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM), is an important feature facilitating pancreas regeneration after injury. Data from animal models show that cells that undergo ADM in ...

and some mature acinar cells can transdifferentiate into ductal cells. To determine whether the organoid followed the same developmental patterns as the actual pancreas, the researchers tagged two ...

Scientists have known that, when the pancreas becomes inflamed, acinar cells, which produce digestive enzymes, begin to transform into ductal cells, which transport digestive juices in the pancreas.

The acinar cells released digestive enzymes and the endocrine cells produced hormones.” Using these organoids, the researchers discovered new information about how the pancreas develops.

Pioneering research shows that acinar cells in the pancreas form new cell types to mitigate injury but are then susceptible to cancerous mutations. Pioneering research from scientists at the ...

A perioperative tru-cut biopsy was taken and triple bypass was done. Subsequently the biopsy suggested pancreatic acinar cell cancer and his serum lipase was elevated to 4 times normal.

This organoid contains the three main types of pancreas cells: acinar cells, ductal cells, and endocrine cells. Each of these cells plays a vital role. Acinar cells release enzymes that help break ...

Scientists have known that, when the pancreas becomes inflamed, acinar cells, which produce digestive enzymes, begin to transform into ductal cells, which transport digestive juices in the pancreas.

These proteins are produced in the so-called acinar cells, which make up 85% of the pancreas and whose precise functioning is still under investigation. Researchers have discovered that a molecule ...

That fat can migrate and build up between pancreatic lobules. Fat also can accumulate inside the lobes. This process can involve a buildup of fat droplets in acinar and stellate cells on the ...
