Autoimmune Chronic Pancreatitis

open access: yesJournal of the Chinese Medical Association, 2008
Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a unique form of chronic pancreatitis that is characterized by swelling of the pancreas, narrowing of the main pancreatic duct (MPD), elevation of serum gamma globulin, or immunoglobulin G or presence of autoantibody, lymphoplasmacytic infiltration and dense fibrosis on histopathology.

Chronic pancreatitis: a changing etiology or a gap in technological medicine

open access: yesEmergency Care Journal, 2009
Alcohol is considered the most important risk factor for the development of chronic pancreatitis. The possibility of evaluating CFTR mutations and the discovery of other gene mutations has led to a better evaluation of the familiar/hereditary forms of ...

Human cationic trypsinogen but not serine peptidase inhibitor, Kazal type 1 variants increase the risk of type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis

open access: yes, 2017
Background and Aim: Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a distinct disease entity. Whether the genes involved in pancreatic acinar cell injury, cationic trypsinogen gene (protease, serine, 1 [trypsin 1] [PRSS1]) and the pancreatic secretory trypsin ...

Microbiome and Metabolomics in Obesity: Advances in Understanding and Interventions Across the Lifespan

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obesity arises from intertwined and reciprocal diet‐microbiome‐host pathways that reshape energy balance, insulin sensitivity, and inflammation. This review synthesizes mechanistic links between microbial functions and metabolic control, charts lifestyle‐related lifecourse dynamics from birth to older age, examines how GLP‐1‐based therapies ...

R‐Loops Mediated Odontogenic Differentiation of hDPSCs by Activating the cGAS‐STING Pathway Under Inflammatory Microenvironment

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background R‐Loops are three‐stranded DNA/RNA hybrids implicated in immune responses. Their role in mesenchymal stem cell differentiation, particularly in dental pulp regeneration under inflammation, remains unclear. Methods Rat pulpo‐dentinal complex (PDC) injury models and LPS‐stimulated human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) were used.
