Genetic mutations in SPINK1, CFTR, CTRC genes in acute pancreatitis
BACKGROUND Explanation of the ultimate causes of acute and chronic pancreatitis is challenging. Hence, it is necessary to seek various etiological factors, including genetic mutations that may be of importance in triggering recurrence and progression of acute to chronic pancreatitis. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of genetic mutations in patients with acute pancreatitis an...
متن کاملPRSS1, SPINK1, CFTR, and CTRC Pathogenic Variants in Korean Patients With Idiopathic Pancreatitis
BACKGROUND This study aimed to identify pathogenic variants of PRSS1, SPINK1, CFTR, and CTRC genes in Korean patients with idiopathic pancreatitis. METHODS The study population consisted of 116 Korean subjects (65 males, 51 females; mean age, 30.4 yr, range, 1-88 yr) diagnosed with idiopathic chronic pancreatitis (ICP), idiopathic recurrent acute pancreatitis (IRAP), or idiopathic acute pancr...
متن کاملComprehensive screening for PRSS1, SPINK1, CFTR, CTRC and CLDN2 gene mutations in Chinese paediatric patients with idiopathic chronic pancreatitis: a cohort study
OBJECTIVE Genetic alterations may contribute to chronic pancreatitis (CP) in Chinese young patients. This study was designed to investigate mutations of cationic trypsinogen (PRSS1), pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor or serine protease inhibitor Kazal type 1 (SPINK1), cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), chymotrypsin C (CTRC) and CLDN2 genes and the copy number varia...
متن کاملChronic pancreatitis associated with the p.G208A variant of PRSS1 gene in a European patient.
CONTEXT The major etiologic factor of chronic pancreatitis in adults is excessive alcohol consumption, whereas among children structural anomalies, systemic and metabolic disorders, and genetic factors are prevalent. Mutations in the cationic trypsinogen gene (PRSS1) cause hereditary pancreatitis, while mutations in serine protease inhibitor Kazal type 1 (SPINK1), cystic fibrosis transmembrane ...
متن کاملCo-existence of CFTR and SPINK1 Gene Mutations in an Idiopathic Chronic Pancreatitis Case
Familial aggregation of CP suggests genetic factors for disease without definitive mode of inheritance. The hypothesized primary putative gene for CP includes SPINK1, CTSB, CTRC, PRSS1 and CFTR. These genes interact with each other and exhibit a variable phenotype in patients. The present report describes a male adult aged 42 years with a complaint of severe recurrent pain in the abdomen and we...
