Background And Aims: Pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) are critical mediators in chronic pancreatitis with an undefined role in acute pancreatitis (AP). PSCs consist of a heterogenous group of cells and are considered interchangeable with pancreatic fibroblasts. This study explored the heterogeneous nature of PSCs by characterizing pancreatic collagen-expressing fibroblasts (PCFs) via lineage tracing in mouse normal and AP pancreas and determining the effect of PCF depletion in AP.

Background: Platelets are pivotal in maintaining vascular integrity, hemostasis, and immune modulation, with newly generated, immature platelets being the most responsive in fulfilling these tasks. Therefore, the immature platelet fraction provides insights into thrombopoiesis dynamics and clinical prognostication. However, it is currently unclear how immature platelet functions change in settings of acute thrombocytopenia.
