| pancreatic pseudocyst | Cyst-like space not lined by epithelium and contained within the pancreas. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| pancreatic pseudocysts | <radiology> AETIOLOGY: acute pancreatitis, blunt abdominal trauma, surgery, many occur in absence of any known cause (12 Dec 1998) |
| pancreatic RNase | See: ribonuclease (pancreatic). (05 Mar 2000) |
| pancreatic sphincter | Smooth muscle sphincter of the main pancreatic duct immediately proximal to the hepatoduodenal, ampulla. Synonym: musculus sphincter ductus pancreatici, pancreatic sphincter, sphincter muscle of pancreatic duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pancreatic steatorrhoea | Steatorrhoea due to the absence of pancreatic juice from the intestine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pancreatic veins | Veins draining the pancreas, emptying into the splenic vein and the superior mesenteric vein. Synonym: venae pancreaticae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| receptors, pancreatic hormone | Cell surface proteins that bind pancreatic hormones with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes which influence the behaviour of cells. These include receptors for glucagon (secreted by alpha cells), insulin (secreted by beta cells), somatostatin (secreted by delta cells), and pancreatic peptide (secreted by pp cells). Some of these hormones and receptors also support neurotransmission. (12 Dec 1998) |
| caudal pancreatic artery | Origin, splenic artery near the left gastroepiploic; distribution, the tail of the pancreas; anastomoses, with other pancreatic arteries. Synonym: arteria caudae pancreatis, caudal pancreatic artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ribonuclease (pancreatic) | |
| ribonuclease, pancreatic | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the endonucleolytic cleavage of pancreatic ribonucleic acids to 3'-phosphomono- and oligonucleotides ending in cytidylic or uridylic acids with 2',3'-cyclic phosphate intermediates. Registry number: EC 3.1.27.5 (12 Dec 1998) |
| great pancreatic artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, splenic; distribution, tail of pancreas; anastomoses, inferior pancreatic artery and arteries of pancreatic tail. Synonym: arteria pancreatica magna. (05 Mar 2000) |
| great superior pancreatic artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, splenic; distribution, head and body of pancreas; anastomoses, superior pancreaticoduodenal. Synonym: arteria pancreatica dorsalis, great superior pancreatic artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphincter muscle of pancreatic duct | Smooth muscle sphincter of the main pancreatic duct immediately proximal to the hepatoduodenal, ampulla. Synonym: musculus sphincter ductus pancreatici, pancreatic sphincter, sphincter muscle of pancreatic duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sphincter of pancreatic duct | Smooth muscle sphincter of the main pancreatic duct immediately proximal to the hepatoduodenal, ampulla. Synonym: musculus sphincter ductus pancreatici, pancreatic sphincter, sphincter muscle of pancreatic duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dorsal pancreatic artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, splenic; distribution, head and body of pancreas; anastomoses, superior pancreaticoduodenal. Synonym: arteria pancreatica dorsalis, great superior pancreatic artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
