The different parameters of the basal and maximal gastric secretory responses were measured in 120 patients with duodenal ulcer. The correlations between the different gastric secretory parameters [volume, H+ concentration, basal acid output (BAO), maximal acid output (MAO), maximal acid output-basal acid output, basal acid output . maximal acid output X 100] were studied in these patients, in dependence of their age and duration of complaints. A positive and mathematically significant correlation was found between the following parameters: 1. age of patients and H+ concentration of gastric basal secretion (r = 0.326; n = 120; P less than 0.001); 2. age of patients and basal acid output (r = 0.200; P less than 0.05); 3. duration of complaints and volume of gastric basal secretion (r = 0.186; P less than 0.05); 4. duration of complaints and basal acid output (r = 0.237; P less than 0.05); 5. age of patients and BAO . MAO-1 X 100 (r = 0.216; P less than 0.05); 6. duration of complaints and BAO. MAO-1 X 100 (4 = 0.197; P less than 0.05); 7. volume of gastric maximal and basal secretory response (r = 0.398; P less than 0.001); 8. H+ concentration of gastric maximal and basal secretory response (r = 0.480; P less than 0.001); 9. MAO and BAO values (r = 0.521; P less than 0.001); 10. H+ output and H+ concentration of gastric basal secretory response (r = 0.620; P less than 0.001); 11. H+ output and volume of gastric basal secretory response (r = 0.779; P less than 0.001); 12. H+ concentration and volume of gastric maximal secretory response (r = 0.298; P less than 0.01); 13. H+ output and H+ concentration of gastric maximal secretory response (r = 0.720; P less than 0.001); 14. H+ output and volume of gastric maximal secretory response (r = 0.802; P less than 0.001). A negative and mathematically significant correlation was observed between the values of BAO . MAO-1 X 100 and of MAO - BAO (r = 0.435; P less than 0.001). It has been concluded 1. duodenal ulcer disease protects the human gastric fundic mucosa against "senile decay"; 2. the changes of gastric basal and maximal secretory responses, induced by duodenal ulcer, do not supply a pathological base for gastric surgery in patients, on dependence on their ages and duration of complaints.

Cells are subjected to dynamic mechanical environments which impart forces and induce cellular responses. In age-related conditions like pulmonary fibrosis, there is both an increase in tissue stiffness and an accumulation of senescent cells. While senescent cells produce a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), the impact of physical stimuli on both cellular senescence and the SASP is not well understood.

Cellular senescence is an essentially irreversible cell cycle arrest associated with upregulated inflammatory responses that contribute to various pathological and physiological processes, including aging, cancer, and cancer prevention. However, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Here, we show that the downregulation of CNOT3, a subunit of the CCR4-NOT complex that deadenylates mRNA poly(A) tails, promotes cellular senescence in subpopulation of A549 human non-small cell lung cancer cells.

Introduction: This study aimed to examine the correlation between the growth response in prepubertal children with idiopathic growth hormone (GH) deficiency after 1 year of treatment with GH to the initial clinical and biochemical parameters. Additionally, the secretion dynamics of GH was also studied by analyzing the GH stimulation test profiles in relation to the GH treatment response.
Methods: This retrospective study included 84 prepubertal children (47 males and 37 females) with a definitive diagnosis of GH deficiency.

The secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is promoted by various nutrients, and glucose and fructose stimulate GLP-1 secretion via intracellular metabolism. D-Allulose (allulose), a non-metabolizable epimer of D-fructose, is also effective in stimulating GLP-1 secretion, although its underlying mechanism remains unclear. We previously observed intestinal distension after the oral administration of allulose, accompanied by increased GLP-1 secretion in rats, possibly because of the low or slow absorbability of allulose.

Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease mediated by autoreactive T cells. Our studies indicate that CD4 T cells reactive to Hybrid Insulin Peptides (HIPs) play a critical role in T cell-mediated beta-cell destruction. We have shown that HIPs form in human islets between fragments of the C-peptide and cleavage products of secretory granule proteins.
