Bacterial endotoxin: a trigger factor for alcoholic pancreatitis? Evidence from a novel, physiologically relevant animal model.

abstract：BACKGROUND & AIMS:Substance P, a member of the tachykinin family, is a prosecretory neuropeptide distributed widely throughout the enteric nervous system. Implicated in inflammatory states, its role in enterotoxigenic water and electrolyte secretion is unclear. We assessed the effect of substance P antagonists and neur...
