Bytes Europe · Impact of excessive alcohol consumption on digestive healthExcessive alcohol consumption is a significant public health concern, responsible for approximately 6% of all deaths and contributing to 5.1% of the global disease burden. Alcohol use is a major risk factor for over 200 diseases, including liver cirrhosis, pancreatitis, and esophageal cancer, with a particularly high incidence of gastrointestinal diseases. More than 50% of alcohol-related deaths are caused by gastrointestinal diseases, highlighting the importance of understanding how ethanol affects the digestive system. This review aims to provide an overview of ethanol metabolism and the diseases caused by alcohol consumption, with a focus on the liver, gastrointestinal tract, pancreas, and

I wonder if all these #radiocommercials I'm hearing for exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) are related to #SARScov2. I seem to recall #pancreas damage being one of the particularly pesky features of #sequelae (viral persistence), in at least some people.

I remember thinking this was chilling for relying on repurposed HIV drugs for treatment, because they rely on the pancreas to break them down. Like, assuming Long COVID treatment in the US and global West starts getting more attention.

Is anyone else hearing these #EPI commercials too? Clearly I'm obsessed, but it's... suspicious. Tests for EPI were fairly uncommon in lab, relied on examining a piece of poo for diagnosis. The positives always looked really freakish.

[Biologie] Premiers organoïdes pancréatiques fonctionnels avec trois types cellulaires : une avancée majeure

www.larecherche.fr/biologie/premiers-organo%C3%AFdes-pancr%C3%A9atiques-fonctionnels-avec-trois-types-cellulaires-une-avanc%C3%A9e-majeure

Une équipe de l’Institut Hubrecht, à Utrecht (Pays-Bas), a franchi une étape importante dans l'étude des organoïdes pancréatiques en cultivant pour la première fois des structures comportant les trois types cellulaires du pancréas humain. Jusqu’alors, les organoïdes pancréatiques humains étaient moins fidèles à nos réels organes. Cette étude ouvre des perspectives pour la modélisation des maladies pancréatiques et le développement de traitements. Toutefois, ces organoïdes restent encore à améliorer avant d’être utilisés en médecine régénérative.

Et si recréer un pancréas en laboratoire était une réalité en devenir ? Cette glande annexe au tube digestif qui produit des sucs digestifs et des hormones est un organe vital du corps humain. Dans une étude, publiée dans la revue de biologie cellulaire et biochimie Cell, une équipe de biologistes néerlandais expliquent être parvenus à cultiver pendant plusieurs années des structures pancréatiques dont le fonctionnement se rapproche de celui d’un pancréas humain. La publication a été co-signée par le généticien néerlandais Hans Clevers, pionnier dans le domaine des organoïdes.

Our results demonstrated that exposure of digestive system to H5N1 influenza viruses could initiate infection either through the #tonsil, with spread to respiratory tissues, or through #intestinal infection, with spread to the liver and #pancreas.

Ilmeisesti meistä jokaisen haimassa on lukuisia syöpää aiheuttavan mutaation sisältäviä soluja, osoittavat amerikkalaistutkijat alan eliittiin kuuluvan @Nature toukokuun numerossa.

Keskeinen kysymys: jos kaikilla on syövän ituja haimassa, miksi vain pieni osa sairastuu useimmiten muutamassa vuodessa kuoleman aiheuttavaan haimasyöpään. Vastaus kysymykseen tullee olemaan monella tavalla merkittävä.

I had a spare #CGM #sensor, so with my SO we now get to see the power of non-#diabetic #pancreas in action. And holy fuck, 100g of sweet bun, so I'd say 50g of carbs, +5 from milk in coffee and +5 from a biscuit, and half an hour after that they peaked at 125 mg/dL, and after another half an hour were barely above 100.
Meanwhile me after about 70g and a bunch of insulin and a bit of exercising and I failed to not go above 200 about 2h after.
