1. Pancreatic Endocrine Tumourigenesis : Genes of potential importance
Sammanfattning : Understanding signalling pathways that control pancreatic endocrine tumour (PET) development and proliferation may reveal novel targets for therapeutic intervention. The pathogenesis for sporadic and hereditary PETs, apart from mutations of the MEN1 and VHL tumour suppressor genes, is still elusive. LÄS MER
2. Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors : Surgical Treatment and Follow-up
Sammanfattning : Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (Pan-NET), are rare, heterogenous and derive from the hormone producing cells in the pancreas. The functioning tumors that overproduce hormones cause clinical syndromes with specific symptoms due to the hormonal production. LÄS MER
3. CCK-dependent pancreatic regulation and pancreatic functional impact on growth in young pigs
Sammanfattning : The exocrine pancreas is mainly regulated via neuro-hormonal pathways. CCK-dependent regulatory pathways and CCK-receptor subtype involved seem to differ between mammalian species. LÄS MER
4. Effects of Pancreatic Surgery : Quality of Life, Cost-effectiveness and Postoperative Results
Sammanfattning : BACKGROUND Pancreatic operations are large procedures with high rates of complications and other potentially impactful consequences such as diabetes and pancreatic exocrine insufficiency. Due to this, and due to the fact that the operations are often occasioned by periampullary tumours with a poor prognosis, it is important to evaluate how the operations affect patients in terms of postoperative results and quality of life.

5. Advances in the Perioperative Management of Pancreatic Cancer
Sammanfattning : Surgery is currently the only form of curative treatment for pancreatic cancer, yet five-year survival rates following resection are just 15-20%. Improved hospital care has decreased postoperative mortality to 2% yet morbidity remains high at 50%. Poor survival and high morbidity are driven by several perioperative factors. LÄS MER
