Metabolic biomarker signature to differentiate pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma from chronic pancreatitis

TL;DR: A biomarker signature (nine metabolites and additionally CA19-9) was identified for the differential diagnosis between PDAC and CP and results in a negative predictive value of 99.9% (95% CI 99.7%–99.9%) in patients with CP with an increased risk for pancreatic cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cathepsin B-Mediated Activation of Trypsinogen in Endocytosing Macrophages Increases Severity of Pancreatitis in Mice.

TL;DR: Studying pancreatitis in mice, activation of digestive proteases to occur not only in acinar cells but also in macrophages that infiltrate pancreatic tissue is found, and contributes to systemic inflammation and severity of pancreatitis.

Complement Component 5 Mediates Development of Fibrosis, via Activation of Stellate Cells, in 2 Mouse Models of Chronic Pancreatitis

TL;DR: In mice, loss of C5 or injection of a C5a-receptor antagonist significantly reduced the level of fibrosis of chronic pancreatitis, but this was not a consequence of milder disease in early stages of pancreatitis.
