Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of glucocorticoids on TRF-induced TSH response in man.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the mechanism of the glucocorticoid suppressive action on TSH secretion after short-term, low doses of glucoc Corticoid administration may be an impaired secretion of endogenous TRF, which results in a supernormal TSH response induced by exogenous TRF.
Journal ArticleDOI
New model of acute necrotizing pancreatitis induced by excessive doses of arginine in rats.
Satoshi Tani,Hiroshi Itoh,Yoshinori Okabayashi,Takahiko Nakamura,Masatoshi Fujii,Takashi Fujisawa,Makoto Koide,Makoto Otsuki +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the administration of excessive doses of arginine induces a new, noninvasive experimental model of acute necrotizing pancreatitis, and pancreatic architecture appeared almost normal after 14 days.
Journal ArticleDOI
Histologic and biochemical alterations in experimental acute pancreatitis induced by supramaximal caerulein stimulation
Satoshi Tani,Makoto Otsuki,Hiroshi Itoh,Masatoshi Fujii,Takahiko Nakamura,Toru Oka,Shigeaki Baba +6 more
TL;DR: Subcutaneous injections of 20 μg/kg body weight of caerulein induced a significant increase in serum amylase activity and histologic evidence of acute interstitial pancreatitis similar to those observed with the 50 μg/ kg body weight dosage of caERulein.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Gymnema sylvestre, R.Br. on glucose homeostasis in rats
Yoshinori Okabayashi,Satoshi Tani,Takashi Fujisawa,Makoto Koide,Hiroshi Hasegawa,Takahiko Nakamura,Masatoshi Fujii,Makoto Otsuki +7 more
TL;DR: Results suggest the usefulness of G. sylvestre in the treatment of certain classes of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and show a tendency to reduce the serum glucose concentrations in the fed state and to improve the glucose tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amylase in the lung.
TL;DR: It seems reasonable to conclude that the salivary type hyperamylasemia in some cases of primary lung cancer may be due to an increase in the amylase contained in normal lung tissues, resulting from activation and release into the blood stream by some inflammatory process.
