Are Dysregulated Inflammatory Responses to Commensal Bacteria Involved in the Pathogenesis of Hepatobiliary-Pancreatic Autoimmune Disease? An Analysis Using Mice Models of Primary Biliary Cirrhosis and Autoimmune Pancreatitis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The etiopathogenesis of many autoimmune disorders has not been identified. The aim of this paper is to focus on the involvement of bacterial exposure in the pathogenesis of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP), both of which are broadly categorized as autoimmune disorders involving hepatobiliary-pancreatic lesions. Avirulent and/or commensal bacteria, which may have important role(s) as initiating factors in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disorders such as PBC and AIP, will be emphasized.

After standard laboratory and imaging studies no causes are identified in nearly 30% of chronic pancreatitis. Japanese authors have helped us to decrease the percentage of so-called idiopathic pancreatitis because they have identified a new clinical entity of pancreatitis: the autoimmune pancreatitis [1]. In the past few years, the frequency of new diagnoses of pancreatitis due to this new enti...

Background and Aim: Acute pancreatitis is an inflammatory pancreatic disease that is associated with low or no fibrosis of the pancreas. Standard non-surgical treatment in all patients involves correcting water and electrolyte disorders, pain relief and avoiding pancreatic secretion. Given that pancreatitis is an inflammatory process, and NSAIDs have been shown to modulate inflammatory processe...

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic condition which is characterized by recurrent immune-mediated inflammation of the gastrointestinal system. IBD is frequently associated with extraintestinal manifestations (EIM) characterized by involvement of multiple organs. EIM occur in 21% to 47% of IBD patients (Navaneethan & Shen, 2010). While some extraintestinal manifestations are encountere...
