Molecular evolution of GPCRs: Secretin/secretin receptors.
In mammals, secretin is a 27-amino acid peptide that was first studied in 1902 by Bayliss and Starling from the extracts of the jejunal mucosa for its ability to stimulate pancreatic secretion. To date, secretin has only been identified in tetrapods, with the earliest diverged secretin found in frogs. Despite being the first hormone discovered, secretin's evolutionary origin remains enigmatic, ...
متن کاملDrug abuse among nurses: A neglected challenge
Drug dependence is a prominent issue in individuals of different professions, education levels, and socioeconomic classes. Authors of this paper, including the first author (as a qualified clinical nurse and nursing supervisor), aimed to address the challenges associated with substance abuse and the subsequent failure in interactions between healthcare personnel and patients referring to clinic...
متن کاملDifferent actions of secretin and Gly-extended secretin predict secretin receptor subtypes.
Only one secretin receptor has been cloned and its properties characterized in native and transfected cells. To test the hypothesis that stimulatory and inhibitory effects of secretin are mediated by different secretin receptor subtypes, pancreatic and gastric secretory responses to secretin and secretin-Gly were determined in rats. Pancreatic fluid secretion was increased equipotently by secre...
متن کاملModulation of secretin release by neuropeptides in secretin-producing cells.
Nerve fibers containing bombesin (BB)/gastrin-releasing polypeptide (GRP), pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP), vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), or galanin are known to innervate the mucosa of the upper small intestine. Both BB/GRP and PACAP have been shown to elicit secretin secretion in vivo. We studied whether the above-mentioned neuropeptides can act directly ...
متن کاملFilarial hydrocele: a neglected condition of a neglected tropical disease.
Filarial hydrocele is the most common chronic manifestation of lymphatic filariasis (LF) and poses a major public health burden to several filarial endemic countries. This review highlights the socio-economic impact of the disease, the role of the immune system in hydrocele development, current diagnostic approaches, and the control and management of filarial hydrocele. In the quest to facilita...
