Unexpected growth-stimulatory effect of somatostatin analogue on cultured human pancreatic carcinoid cells.

abstract：:Dietary phosphate restriction produces an adaptive increase in renal tubular Na/Pi cotransport. A similar adaptation occurs during phosphate depletion in opossum kidney cells, a continuous line of cultured renal epithelial cells. We investigated the cellular changes associated with adaptation to phosphate depletion in...
