Kinetic properties of 5' nucleotidase in blood lymphocytes from healthy subjects, immunodeficient patients and cord blood.

abstract：:Although increasing evidence demonstrates the association between intestinal dysbiosis and pancreatic diseases such as chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer, it remains largely unknown whether intestinal dysbiosis is involved in the immunopathogenesis of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP). Recently, we found that inte...
