Rab27A Is Present in Mouse Pancreatic Acinar Cells and Is Required for Digestive Enzyme Secretion

The small G-protein Rab27A has been shown to regulate the intracellular trafficking of secretory granules in various cell types. However, the presence, subcellular localization and functional impact of Rab27A on digestive enzyme secretion by mouse pancreatic acinar cells are poorly understood. Ashen mice, which lack the expression of Rab27A due to a spontaneous mutation, were used to investigat...

Brain-gut axis in the modulation of pancreatic enzyme secretion.

Pancreatic enzyme secretion is controlled by complex of neurohormonal mechanisms, activated by nutrients. Food components in the duodenum acts as the signals for activation of intestinal phase of pancreatic secretion. Direct stimulation of pancreatic exocrine function involves several hormones, which bind to the receptors on pancreatic acinar cell. Indirect mechanism depends on the activation o...

Cyclic GMP does not inhibit protein kinase C-mediated enzyme secretion in rat pancreatic acini.

In pancreatic acini, cGMP can be increased by secretagogues such as cholecystokinin (CCK), cholinergic agents, and bombesin, whose actions on enzyme secretion are believed to be mediated by protein kinase C. However, the role of cGMP in acinar cell function has been unclear. A recent paper by Rogers et al. (Rogers, J., Hughes, R.G., and Matthews, E. K. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 3713-3719) repo...
