Research on the Pig Pancreatic Acinar Epithelial Cells is essential to the study of acute pancreatitis, chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic acinar-to-ductal metaplasia, and pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) formation. The pancreas is an important gland in the digestive system. It is located in the abdomen, behind the stomach. It produces digestive enzymes to assist in breaking down food, and secretes insulin and glucagon to regulate blood glucose. Researchers often study its functions for endocrine disorders, such as type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The Pig Pancreatic Acinar Epithelial Cells are to be used with Pig Pancreatic Acinar Epithelial Cell Medium (Cat. No. ACM0933). This product is intended for laboratory in vitro use only. It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical applications.
