[A study of the specificity of amylases. Measurement of pancreatic isoamylases (author's transl)]. 1980

H Caillens, and P Jaffray, and M O Benoit, and O G Ekindjian, and C Souciet, and L Leger

Serum lipase, pancreatic isoamylases and serum inhibitory activity on proteases were measured in 29 patients, 17 of whom had pancreatic disorders. The new test used to measure pancreatic isoamylases is rapid and useful, as it is relatively specific of pancreatic lesions. In acute abdominal syndromes, it undoubtedly enhances the value of biochemical investigations by confirming or excluding pancreatic lesions or involvement.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007527 Isoenzymes Structurally related forms of an enzyme. Each isoenzyme has the same mechanism and classification, but differs in its chemical, physical, or immunological characteristics. Alloenzyme,Allozyme,Isoenzyme,Isozyme,Isozymes,Alloenzymes,Allozymes
D008049 Lipase An enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the reaction of triacylglycerol and water to yield diacylglycerol and a fatty acid anion. It is produced by glands on the tongue and by the pancreas and initiates the digestion of dietary fats. (From Dorland, 27th ed) EC 3.1.1.3.

D010179 Pancreas A nodular organ in the ABDOMEN that contains a mixture of ENDOCRINE GLANDS and EXOCRINE GLANDS. The small endocrine portion consists of the ISLETS OF LANGERHANS secreting a number of hormones into the blood stream. The large exocrine portion (EXOCRINE PANCREAS) is a compound acinar gland that secretes several digestive enzymes into the pancreatic ductal system that empties into the DUODENUM.
