Effects of leucine on insulin secretion and beta cell membrane potential in mouse islets of Langerhans.

abstract：:In a patient with pancreatic cancer, an arterial anomaly was observed that apparently consisted of the congenital absence of the celiac axis and the replacement of the pancreaticoduodenal arcade by an anomalous vessel. The complete or near-complete arterial flow to the liver and spleen depended upon this anomalous pre...
