List of Illustrations

Chapter 01

Figure 1.1 Germ disks sectioned through the region of the primitive streak, showing gastrulation. (a) On days 14 and 15, the ingressing epiblast cells replace the hypoblast to form the definitive endoderm. (b) The epiblast that ingresses on day 16 migrates between the endoderm and epiblast layers to form the intraembryonic mesoderm.

Figure 1.2 Contributions of the dorsal and ventral pancreas to the definitive organ. The ventral pancreas becomes most of the head. The dorsal pancreas becomes the remainder of the head, plus the body and tail. The duct of the dorsal pancreas contributes a large part of the main pancreatic duct plus the accessory duct. The duct of the ventral pancreas becomes the part of the main duct nearest the duodenum.

Chapter 02

Figure 2.1 This pancreas, from the autopsy of a 47‐year‐old woman, measures 22.5 cm in length and has been dissected free of most surrounding fat. (a) Anterior view with the head at image left. (b) Posterior view. A thin layer of fat (translucent yellow) covers a portion of the head at image right. Note the thin neck region just to the left of the head. (c) Cut surface of a transection through the head of the pancreas showing the lobular pancreatic parenchyma.

Figure 2.2 A pancreas dissected to reveal the pancreatic ducts and common bile duct as it traverses the head of the pancreas, ending as it joins the main pancreatic duct near the ampulla of Vater. Interlobular branches of the main duct are depicted but smaller ducts (intralobular ducts and ductules) are not. Eponyms identify the anatomist, embryologist, or physician who is credited with first describing a structure. Wirsung and Santorini were such scientists.

Figure 2.3 Relationships of the pancreas to surrounding organs. This two‐dimensional drawing depicts structures that lie in several different planes; for example, the kidneys lie lateral to the spine and posterior to the pancreas. The superior mesenteric artery and vein lie anterior to the aorta and inferior vena cava.

Figure 2.4 Frontal CT scan in the plane of the head and body of the pancreas. The technology dictates that all structures shown lie in the same plane. The tail of the pancreas is not shown because it lies posterior to the depicted plane.

Figure 2.5 Diagram of the upper abdomen at the level of the pancreas based on a CT scan. Note that the plane of the image is angled upward on the left as indicated, upper image right. The vertebral column is unlabeled bottom center.

Figure 2.6 Axial CT scan of the upper abdomen at the level of the pancreas. This scan is oriented with the abdominal wall at the top and the spine and muscles of the back at the bottom as viewed from below. Key structures are labeled.

Figure 2.7 The arterial blood supply of the pancreas. Image (a) is visualized from the front and (b) is seen from the back.

Figure 2.8 Lymph nodes draining the pancreas. There is considerable individual variation in the location and size of lymph nodes, so this drawing is somewhat schematic. Both (a) and (b) are anterior views; (b) includes some nodes that lie posterior to the pancreas.

Figure 2.9 Nerves (yellow) serving the pancreas. The cross‐sectional image (a) emphasizes the location of the celiac ganglia of the autonomic system lateral to the aorta while (b) emphasizes the rich nerve plexus that connects these ganglia to the pancreas. SMA, superior mesenteric artery; PL, plexus.

Figure 2.10 Pancreatic lobular tissue with acinar cells, small duct, ductule, and small islet. This H&E‐stained section is largely composed of acini and acinar tubules cut in cross‐section or tangentially. A small intralobular duct (a) is shown image right and at its upper end it gives rise to a ductule (b) with virtually no connective tissue evident in its wall. Liquid content of the duct and ductule is homogeneous and pink (eosinophilic). Large, clear spaces are fat cells (c). A small vein (d) and artery (e) are at image right above center. A small islet is near the lower image right corner.

Figure 2.11 Pancreatic tissue with acinar, centroacinar, and ductal cells. The acinar cells are easily identified because of the darkly stained zymogen granules (ZG) and are larger than centroacinar and ductal cells. The basal portion (B) of the acinar cells lies next to the interstitial space that contains vessels (V), nerves, and connective tissue. Nuclei (N) with nucleoli (n) are in the basal portion of the acinar cells. The golgi (G) lies at the junction of the basal and apical (A) portions of the cell. Centroacinar cells (CAC) have pale cytoplasm with no secretory granules. A small ductule (D) extends from image right to below center. Mitochondria (m) are identified at the top of the field. This is a 1 μm thick section of plastic embedded tissue prepared for electron microscopy that was stained with toluidine blue.

Figure 2.12 Acinar cells with RER, mature, and immature zymogen granules. Two centroacinar cells are near the center. The acinar cell at 3 o’clock, image right, is binucleate. Numerous mitochondria are present in the acinar cells and lower centroacinar cell. There are several electron‐dense residual bodies in the acinar cells. It appears that two have been extruded into the interstitial space at the top of the image and others are being extruded into the acinar lumen near the center of the image.

Figure 2.13 Apical portions of several acinar cells border two luminal spaces, lower image right and upper image left. A centroacinar cell with numerous mitochondria borders the lumen, lower image right. Microvilli protrude into the lumens from the luminal aspect of the acinar and centroacinar cells. Zymogen granules are prominent in all acinar cells.

Figure 2.14 Serial cross‐sections of main pancreatic duct (a) (H&E stain) stained to demonstrate collagen (b) (trichrome stain), myofibroblasts (c) (immunoperoxidase stain to demonstrate smooth muscle actin, a marker for myofibroblasts), and smooth muscle (d) (immunoperoxidase stain to demonstrate desmin, a marker for smooth muscle). The lining epithelium has been lost, probably reflecting preoperative ERCP and stenting of the pancreatic duct. The patient underwent a Whipple procedure because of chronic pancreatitis. There are many myofibroblasts and fewer smooth muscle cells in the wall of the main duct.

Figure 2.15 Serial cross‐sections of a small intralobubular duct surrounded by acinar tissue from the same patient as in Fig. 2.14. (a) H&E stain. Note the origin of a ductule branching into acinar tissue at 7 o’clock. (b) Trichrome stain with blue‐staining collagen. There is fibrosis around acinar lobules (upper image left). (c) Immunoperoxidase stain with antibody to smooth muscle actin (SMA) to demonstrate the abundant myofibroblasts. (d) Immunoperoxidase stain with antibody to desmin to demonstrate smooth muscle cells. There is little staining.

Figure 2.16 Pancreas ductule (top center) branches (upper image right) to reach several acini or acinar tubules (upper image right and near the center). Blue zymogen granules are conspicuous in the acinar cells and the liquid content of the ductule is also dark blue. Ductal and centroacinar cells have pale cytoplasm. The presence of numerous round empty capillaries (arrows) in the interstitial spaces indicates that the pancreas was perfused with fixative. Toluidine blue stain, 1 μm thick plastic embedded tissue.

is surrounded by multiple acinar cells containing zymogen granules. Extensions of PSC cytoplasm between acinar cells are conspicuous, upper image right and lower image left. The dark, irregular cytoplasmic inclusions at the origin of the latter interstitial extension may represent lipid droplets—a characteristic of PSC.

Figure 2.19 Pancreatic lobules with acinar cells and four islets at 12, 3, 6–7, and 9 o’clock. The islets are paler than the surrounding acinar tissue. The upper and lower islets are small and the lateral islets are medium size. H&E stain.

Figure 2.20 Serial sections of a human islet immunostained using antibodies to insulin (a), glucagon (b), and somatostatin (c). The presence of the hormones is indicated by brown staining. The predominance of insulin secreting β cells is obvious. In (b) and (c), the location of α cells and δ cells is primarily at the border of groups of β cells.

Figure 2.22 Mouse islet with β‐cell cytoplasm containing insulin granules (image left), a δ cell with nucleus and less dense secretory granules (right of center), and α‐cell cytoplasm with glucagon granules (upper image right corner) and at the bottom margin near the center. In murine species, β‐cell granules have a wide halo surrounding the dense core. Acinar cell cytoplasm with zymogen granules, RER, and mitochondria is present (lower image right).

Figure 2.23 Human islet from transplant isolation with α, β, and δ cells labeled. The α‐cell granules are typically slightly larger than β‐cell granules; δ‐cell granules are typically less densely stained than the granules in α and β cells. The cytoplasm of several islet cells contains lipid—most notably in the central β cell where lipid bodies lie at 4 and 11–12 o’clock around the nucleus.

Figure 3.2 Pancreas divisum on ERCP. Whereas the intra‐ and extrahepatic bile ducts are of regular size and proportions, the pancreatic duct is short and tender (already overfilled with contrast medium) and supplies only the head of the pancreas.

Figure 4.1 Fluid and enzyme secretion from acinar cells. (a) Acinar transport model illustrating the individual ion transport events that work together to produce an isotonic NaCl‐rich fluid. For graphical convenience, different aspects of the processes are shown in separate cells. In the top cell it is shown that ACh or CCK stimulation of their respective specific receptors on the basolateral membrane elicits a rise in the cytosolic Ca

2+

concentration ([Ca

2+

]

i

), which in turn activates Cl

+

channels in the apical (luminal) membrane and K

+

channels in the basolateral membrane (for graphical convenience all events in the basolateral membrane are shown only in the basal membrane). The middle cell illustrates transcellular Cl

transport. The Na

+

/K

+

/2Cl

cotransporter, the K

+

channel, and the Na

+

/K

+

pump are shown in the basal membrane and it is indicated that the net transport event is uptake of Cl

, whereas at the apical membrane Cl

exit into the lumen simply occurs through a Cl

channel. The lower cell illustrates the overall electrical circuit and explains the transepithelial electrical potential difference. The Na

+

/K

+

/2Cl

cotransporter is electrically neutral, so the only electrogenic event at the basolateral membrane is the transport of cations (K

+

and Na

+

) through the K

+

channel and Na

+

/K

+

pump (3Na

+

pumped out for 2K

+

taken in). This net outward (cation exit) current has to be matched by an inward (anion exit) current across the apical membrane and the completion of the circuit depends on the high conductance of the so‐called tight junctions (TJs). (b) Model drawing of acinar unit with small duct segment attached. The polarity of acinar cells is shown with the nucleus (N) surrounded by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in the basal part and zymogen granules (ZG) in the apical part. (c) Fluid and amylase secretion from isolated perfused rat pancreas stimulated by the frog skin peptide cerulein (analog of CCK) and secretin.

signaling and organelle distribution in the intact mouse pancreas. (a) Merged confocal images showing distribution of specific fluorescent markers for zymogen granules (ZG – red), nuclei (N – blue), and mitochondria (Mit – green). The optical slice goes through three cells (nuclei). The ZG are seen distributed around the lumen and are surrounded by mitochondria. Mitochondria are also located around the nuclei and close to the plasma membrane. (b) Confocal image of larger part of the pancreas showing many acinar units. One cell is highlighted by white dashed lines and in this cell apical (red) and basal (blue) regions of interest are signposted. The traces shown in (c) are from these two regions. (c) ACh‐elicited cytosolic Ca

2+

signals. At the low ACh concentration of 100 nM, repetitive Ca

2+

spikes are seen exclusively in the apical pole. When the ACh concentration is increased to 1 μM, there is a rise in [Ca

2+

]

i

in both the apical and basal regions. (d) Fluorescent images showing (upper row) a single local apical Ca

2+

spike (numbers refer to time points in (c)) and (lower row) the initial Ca

2+

wave generation following the increase in ACh concentration (numbers again refer to time points signposted in C).

2+

‐activated Cl

current (

), mitochondrial Ca

2+

concentration ([Ca

m

—measured by Rhod‐2 fluorescence—and concentration of NADH (autofluorescence). It is seen that ACh evokes a rapid rise in

, which is followed immediately by a rise in [Ca

]

m

and after a small delay by an increase in the NADH concentration signifying activation of mitochondrial metabolism and therefore ATP production.

Figure 4.4 Ca

2+

transport and signaling events in acinar cell. (a) Events at the plasma membrane. Two receptor pathways are shown. CCK interaction with CCK1 receptors results in activation—via an unknown mechanism—of the cytosolic enzyme ADP‐ribosyl cyclase, which generates two separate messengers, namely cADPR and NAADP. ACh binding to muscarinic M3 receptors activates, via interaction with a classical trimeric G‐protein, phospholipase C (PLC) generating the messenger IP

3

(as well as diacyl glycerol—not shown in diagram). The absence of the Na

+

/Ca

2+

exchanger is highlighted. Ca

2+

extrusion by the plasma membrane Ca

2+

‐activated ATPase is shown. Ca

2+

entry occurs through store‐operated Ca

2+

channels (SOC). (b) Schematic illustration of Ca

2+

release from the ER through the IP

3

R elicited by IP

and through the RyR by NAADP or cADPR. Positive and negative Ca

2+

interactions between the two Ca

2+

release channels are also shown. (c) Confocal fluorescent images illustrating changes in organellar [Ca

2+

] following ACh stimulation. The left image shows the high resting [Ca

2+

] in the ER (mostly in the basal (left) part of the cell). After maximal ACh stimulation, [Ca

2+

] in the ER has been reduced markedly (shift from warm (red) to cold (green) color) and the perigranular mitochondrial belt is now clearly seen (yellow). This indicates that Ca

2+

lost from the ER has been taken up in part by the mitochondria. The third image shows the almost complete loss of Ca

2+

from the ER and the still elevated [Ca

2+

] in the perigranular mitochondria. (d) Confocal image showing the distribution of fluorescent thapsigargin (white), a very specific marker for the ER Ca

2+

pump. The optical slice goes through two cells (but only through one nucleus – N). It is seen that by far the highest ER Ca

2+

pump density is in the basolateral parts of the cell, but it is important to note that there are some light elements in the darker granular (secretory pole – SP) areas signifying ER elements with Ca

2+

pumps also in this part of the cell. (e) Schematic drawing of Ca

of similar magnitude to that seen after Ca

2+

uncaging, but in this case there is loss of GFP fluorescence from the basolateral membrane, signifying loss of PIP

2

, and appearance of fluorescence in the cytosol indicating appearance of IP

‐elicited local apical Ca

spikes and exocytotic secretion. The main part of the figure shows the result from a patch clamp experiment with internal acinar cell perfusion. The trace shows the repetitive spikes of Ca

2+

‐dependent Cl

current elicited by intracellular IP

3

infusion (10 μM). The images below illustrate the configuration and the distribution of the elevated [Ca

2+

]

i

during the height of a spike. It is clearly seen that the Ca

2+

signal occurs in the apical granular pole. The insert (in red frame) shows correlation between a single apical Ca

2+

spike (during IP

3

infusion), recorded here as an increase in Cl

conductance (∆G), and the exocytotic response recorded as an increase in membrane capacitance (∆C). It is seen that the increase in Cl

conductance (a sensitive indicator of [Ca

2+

]

i

) slightly precedes the rise in capacitance and that the secretory response is completed just before [Ca

2+

]

i

returns to the inter‐spike level.

Figure 4.7 Overall Ca

entry and exit. The left part illustrates an experiment in which [Ca

2+

] is measured outside an isolated acinar cell by using a Ca

2+

‐sensitive fluorescent indicator linked to high molecular weight dextran, thereby limiting the indicator mobility. The morphology of the cell, with clear identification of the granular apical (Ap) pole is shown in (a). (b) to (i) are fluorescent images (taken at 3‐s intervals) showing the distribution of the extracellular [Ca

2+

] rise immediately following stimulation with ACh (10 μM). It is clear that the Ca

2+

extrusion from the cell occurs predominantly across the apical membrane. The right part of the figure illustrates the rise in [Ca

2+

] of mitochondria close to the basal plasma membrane during store‐operated Ca

2+

entry. Mitochondrial [Ca

2+

] ([Ca

2+

]

m

) was measured with a fluorescent probe and traces from three regions of interest (red, black, and green) are shown. The cell was initially poisoned with thapsigargin in the absence of external Ca

2+

to deplete the ER of Ca

2+

. During the time period indicated by the bar labelled 10 mM Ca

2+

, Ca

2+

was readmitted to the external solution and it is seen that there was a marked rise in [Ca

m

particularly in the red region of interest, very close to the basal plasma membrane. The image marked with a red arrow shows the distribution of the elevated [Ca
