Local and systemic effects of aging on acute pancreatitis

Abstract: Introduction: Acute pancreatitis (AP) is associated with bacterial translocation and infection mainly related to the common intestinal microbiota suggesting a possible breakdown of intestinal barrier. Intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP) is a 15-kd protein localized in intestinal mucosa cells that due to its small size quickly leaks out of damaged cells leading to increase in blood levels. Therefore the plasma levels of I-FABP indicating gut epithelial cells injury during AP may be related to bacteri… Show more

“…The underlying mechanism of the above condition is still debate. A view proposed in a literature that the increasing age was associated to the loss of protective proteins of AP which led an adverse clinical course in oldest patients of the disease [28]. Pre-existing comorbidities such as diabetes, chronic renal disease would influence the physiological functions of aging AP patients which causing a more severe inflammatory response reflected as primary clinical manifestation of the disease [13].…”

“…An islet—β death promotes reduction in insulin secretion and increased blood glycemic index. Ultimately, an abnormal or no insulin secretion results in immune damage, inflammation damage, and fat infiltration leading to pancreas shrinkage (Coelho et al, 2019; Huang et al, 2019).…”
