  2. 1. Regulation of the exocrine pancreas in growing pigs, with special emphasis on entero-pancreatic reflexes

    Author : Lena Evilevitch; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; kidney bean lectin; Animal physiology; Djurfysiologi; duodenum; entero-pancreatic reflex; insulin; lipas; amylas; trypsin; weaning; development; maturation; inhibition; CCK-receptors; Exocrine pancreas; CCK; pig;

    Abstract : The regulation of the exocrine pancreas has been under thorough investigation for many decades. In rats, cholecystokinin (CCK) is considered to be the major gut hormone stimulating the pancreas to releasing the digestive enzymes. READ MORE

  4. 2. Developmental and methodological aspects of intestinal and pancreatic function in pigs and rats

    Author : Klas Rådberg; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; macromolecule; endocytosis; FITC-dextran; secretion; mucosa; CCK; pancreas; disaccharidase; intestinal permeability; lectin; morphometry; Animal physiology; Djurfysiologi;

    Abstract : The gastrointestinal tract has two opposing functions; to effectively absorb nutrients and to act as a safety barrier against hazardous substances in the environment. After birth these functions develops gradually. READ MORE

  5. 3. Induced Growth and Precocious Maturation of the Digestive System in Suckling Rats and Pigs after Exposure to Red Kidney Bean Lectin

    Author : Ann Linderoth; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi; Neurologi; neurophysiology; neuropsychology; Neurology; Fysiologi; Physiology; Djurfysiologi; Animal physiology; sucrase; lactase; amylase; trypsin; weaning; small intestine; glucocorticoids; endocytosis; dissacchridases; intestinal permeability; PHA; pancreas; Development; phytohaemagglutinin;

    Abstract : The timing of the postnatal development of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract in mammals is influenced by dietary and hormonal factors. It was hypothesized that accelerated GI cell turnover during maturation would result in a precoucios conversion to more mature digestive functions. READ MORE

  6. 4. Involvement of the immune system in phytohaemagglutinin-induced structural and functional precocious maturation of the gut in young rats

    Author : Olena Prykhodko; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cytokines; mucosa; development; Gastrointestinal tract; mammals; immune system; T-cells;

    Abstract : Mammals are born with an immature gastrointestinal (GI) tract that allows the uptake of the specific nutrients and bioactive macromolecules in the milk, especially the protecting maternal antibodies. Eventually during weaning, the intake of milk decreases while that of solid food increases, and the GI system undergoes prominent structural and functional changes adapting the young this dietary change.
