Lung injury is the most common secondary complication of pancreatitis and pancreatic
malignancy. Around 60–70% of pancreatitis-related deaths are caused by lung injury; …

In the complex progression of fibrosis in chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs)
emerge as central figures. These cells, initially in a dormant state characterized by the …

Chronic pancreatitis is a debilitating disease affecting millions worldwide. These patients
suffer from bouts of severe pain that are minimally relieved by pain medications and may …

Objective: To identify and compare current modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors for
pancreatic cancer (PaCa) that may have potential application in PaCa risk stratification …

Purpose: Pancreatic duct variation can affect the secretory function of the pancreas. We
aimed to explore the pancreatic duct variation, observed using low-keV monoenergetic …

Objectives Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a chronic fibroinflammatory condition of the pancreas
difficult to diagnose in early stages. Novel biomarkers useful to facilitate early diagnosis or …

Patients with chronic pancreatitis have an increased risk of pancreatic malignancy, but the
mechanisms underlying this relationship are poorly understood. We developed a mouse …

As a pluripotent cell, activated pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) can differentiate into various
pancreatic parenchymal cells and participate in the secretion of extracellular matrix and the …

Pancreatitis, encompassing acute and chronic forms, and pancreatic cancer pose significant
challenges to the exocrine tissue of the pancreas. Recurrence rates and complications …

In this editorial, we focus specifically on the mechanisms by which pancreatic inflammation
