Severe Acute Pancreatitis, a serious condition caused by factors such as gallstones and chronic excessive alcohol consumption, with a very high mortality rate. Human pancreatic lipase (hPL) is a key digestive enzyme and abnormal activity levels of this enzyme are important indicators for diagnosing and monitoring pancreatic diseases. A fluorescent probe, LPP, has been developed to monitor the activity of hPL, especially in cases of SAP.

Article Synopsis
  • * Gene expression analysis revealed 1237 genes were upregulated and 1292 genes downregulated in C3 KO mice, with specific genes related to constipation identified.
  • * The research highlights a novel gene candidate that may help understand and potentially treat constipation linked to C3 deficiencies, particularly through the modulation of mucin-related gene expression.

Pancreatic lipase (PNLIP) is the major lipolytic enzyme secreted by the pancreas. A recent study identified human PNLIP variants P245A, I265R, F300L, S304F, and F314L in European cohorts with chronic pancreatitis. Functional analyses indicated that the variants were normally secreted but exhibited reduced stability when exposed to pancreatic proteases.

Obesity is acknowledged as a significant risk factor for various metabolic diseases, and the inhibition of human pancreatic lipase (hPL) can impede lipid digestion and absorption, thereby offering potential benefits for obesity treatment. Anthraquinones is a kind of natural and synthetic compounds with wide application. In this study, the inhibitory effects of 31 anthraquinones on hPL were evaluated.

Human pancreatic lipase (hPL) is a vital digestive enzyme responsible for breaking down dietary fats in humans, inhibiting hPL is a feasible strategy for preventing and treating obesity. This study aims to investigate the structure-activity relationships (SARs) of flavonoids as hPL inhibitors, and to find potent hPL inhibitors from natural and synthetic flavonoids. In this work, the anti-hPL effects of forty-nine structurally diverse naturally occurring flavonoids were assessed and the SARs were summarized.
