250 Tracing of cells using thymidine labeling have shown that most of the cells in the generative zone migrate in a successive manner to the mucosal surface to form columnar epithelium. The lifespan of surface epithelium in the stomach of rats, mice and hamsters has been calculated to be ...
Chief cells in the stomach secrete pepsinogen. Pepsinogen is an inactive enzyme that breaks down proteins into smaller peptides. Pepsinogen is...Become a member and unlock all Study Answers Start today. Try it now Create an account Ask a question Our experts can answer your tough homework ...
Chief cells are located within the stomach and are also called peptic cells. They are activated by hormones like gastrin, as well as neurotransmitters. These cells are located at the base of gastric glands.Answer and Explanation: Chief cells are exocrine secretory cells and secrete enzymes that a...
These results show that the chief cells of human and rat stomach produce DNase I. This is the first report to demonstrate that secretion of DNase I is controlled by the chief cells in human and rat stomachs.doi:10.1023/A:1014999624430S Tsutsumi...
Adult stem cells constantly react to local changes to ensure tissue homeostasis. In the main body of the stomach, chief cells produce digestive enzymes; however, upon injury, they undergo rapid proliferation for prompt tissue regeneration. Here, we identified p57Kip2 (p57) as a molecular switch ...
BACKGROUND: Leptin plays an important role in the control of food intake and body weight homeostasis. In humans, leptin is produced by adipocytes, placental cells and secretory cells of the mammary epithelium. Recently, it has been reported that stomach
After 2 weeks at 39掳C, ImChief cells cease proliferating and resemble a more differentiated state similar to chief cells. ImSPEM cells express the SPEM markers TFF2 and HE4 and produce HE4-containing granules. They lack expression of most other lineage specific markers. ImSPEM cells retain ...
This Mudra promotes a healthy metabolic function by stimulating the pancreas and the uptake of insulin by cells of the body. It is highly recommended for the prevention, control and possible cure of conditions such as Diabetes Mellitus and imbalances of the thyroid gland. When ready slowly bring...
Following parietal cell loss, chief cells transdifferentiate into mucous cell metaplasia, designated spasmolytic polypeptide-expressing metaplasia (SPEM). Induction of SPEM was associated with loss of miR-148a. Loss of miR-148a is an early step in chief cell transdifferentiation. In the stomach mucos...
