pancreatic duct

Preferred Label : pancreatic duct;

Uberon definition : A duct that collects and carries secretions of the exocrine pancreas to the intestine.;

Uberon synonym : pancreas duct; duct of pancreas;

Uberon Homology note : These data show that ducts within the zebrafish pancreas originally arise in situ from isolated progenitor cells rather than arising from reiterative branching of the pancreatic epithelium. This process of pancreatic duct formation in zebrafish may be analogous to the mechanism of duct formation in the mammalian mammary and salivary glands. (...) A related mechanism of duct formation has also been proposed to occur within the mammalian pancreatic epithelium.[uncertain][VHOG];
