主 题:matrix metalloproteinases 1 in situ hybridization pancreas rat
摘 要:In situ hybridization and immunocytochemical techniques were employed to examine the expression of matrix metalloproteinases 1 (MMP 1) and to identify the pattern of its distribution in rat pancreas. The results indicated that the signal of MMP 1 mRNA and MMP 1 positive immunoreaction were detected in some fiberoblasts around interlobular ducts and exocrine cell in margin acinus of some lobules, but the signal of MMP 1 mRNA and MMP 1 positive immunoreaction could not be detected in most of other acinus and islets of pancreas. It is concluded that the expression of MMP 1 in above cells of rat might play an important role in acinar proliferation and differentiation of rat pancreatic tissues.
