Endocrine Function of the Surgically Reduced Pancreas
The pancreas reduced to 4 or 10 gm. weeks or months previously by partial resection, is able to maintain a normal glycemic level in dogs of about 10 kilos in good condition. When the pancreas is reduced to 4 gm. the capacity for secreting insulin under certain conditions of strain is diminished whereas a pancreas reduced to 10 gm. may have a normal or decreased capacity.

متن کاملGABA in the Endocrine Pancreas
-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a principal nonpeptidal neurotransmitter with a well-characterized role as an inhibitor of neuronal firing in the CNS (Cherubini et al., 1991; Thomas-Reetz and De Camilli, 1994). GABA is also found in other tissues, such as the endocrine pancreas (Thomas-Reetz and De Camilli, 1994). In the neuron, GABA is synthesized in close proximity to synaptic vesicles, it is pr...
