    Notes: Summary The endocrine pancreatic tissue from 13 patients with severe chronic pancreatitis, 5 patients with pancreatic duct carcinoma and 4 non-diseased pancreases was analysed by immunocytochemistry and morphometry. The controls revealed two distinct islet types with different regional distribution. The lower dorsal part of the pancreatic head contained islets with irregular outlines and a high number of PP cells (PP-cells 60.4±4.1%; B-cells 29.4±4.6%; A-cells 7.4±1.5%; D-cells 2.8±0.6%). The other parts of the pancreas contained compact islets with only a few PP cells (PP-cells 1.0±0.4%; B-cells 69.3±3.0%; A-cells 24.1±2.1%; D-cells 5.8±0.5%). In chronic pancreatitis the sclerotic tissue of the body and the tail region contained compact islets with altered cell inter-relationships when compared with controls. While the number of B-cells was diminished (48.5%), A and PP cells appeared to be increased in number (42.7 and 4.1%, respectively). Furthermore, ductulo-insular proliferations were conspicuous (nesidioblastosis) with budding-off of small endocrine cell clusters made up predominantly of A and PP cells. In 3 patients with pancreatic carcinoma increased numbers of PP cells and of A cells were found along the advancing edge of the carcinoma. The data emphasize the necessity of taking into consideration regional PP cell distribution in each case in which an increase of PP cells is observed. True hyperplasia is found in chronic pancreatitis and, focally, in some cases with pancreatic carcinoma.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Der Einfluß von Cholestyramin in der Hepatocarcinogenese wurde an Wistar—Ratten untersucht. Nach 14wöchentlicher intragastraler Applikation von 50 mg Diäthylnitrosamin/kg entwickelten bei simultaner Verabreichung von 1,3 % Cholestyraminzusatz im Futter die Hälfte der Versuchstiere Lebertumoren. Dagegen kam es unter ähnlichen experimentellen Bedingungen, aber ohne Cholestyramin im Futter bei fast allen Tieren der Kontrollgruppe zu Tumorentstehung. Die Sequestration von Gallensäuren und die verminderte Bildung der toxischen Lithocholsäure konnte als Erklärung herangezogen werden, warum im Experiment die Induktion von Lebercarcinom durch Diäthylnitrosamin reduziert wird.
    Notes: Summary The influence of cholestyramine on hepatocarcinogenesis was investigated in the Wistar rat. After 14 weekly gastric instillation of 50 mg diethylnitrosamine/kg and simultaneous administration of diet supplement with 1.3 % cholestyramine, half of the animals developed hepatic tumors. In contrast, nearly all the animals in the control group under similar experimental conditions, but without the cholestyramine supplement in their diet, developed hepatic tumors. The sequestration of bile acids and the reduction of the noxious lithocholic acid could be considered as an explanation for the modification of hepatic tumors induced by diethylnitrosamine in the Wistar rat.
