Secretion of protein, fluid, and immunoreactive somatostatin in rat pure pancreatic juice: adaptation to chronic cerulein and secretin treatment.

abstract：INTRODUCTION AND AIM:Recent studies have suggested that CCK is not essential for normal pancreatic growth in mice. We examined whether the treatment of hyperglycemia participates in a non-CCK-1-receptor-mediated mechanism of pancreatic regeneration after partial (30%) pancreatectomy (Px) with use of Otsuka Long-Evans T...
