Controversial Roles of Regenerating Family Proteins in Tissue Repair and Tumor Development.
Biomedicines
December 2024
School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Nanjing Tech University, Nanjing 211816, China.
: Over the past 40 years since the discovery of regenerating family proteins (Reg proteins), numerous studies have highlighted their biological functions in promoting cell proliferation and resisting cell apoptosis, particularly in the regeneration and repair of pancreatic islets and exocrine glands. Successively, short peptides derived from Reg3δ and Reg3α have been employed in clinical trials, showing favorable therapeutic effects in patients with type I and type II diabetes. However, continued reports have been limited, presumably attributed to the potential side effects.

Department of Gastroenterology, Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University, No. 16 Jiangsu Road, Shinan District, Qingdao 266075, China.
Background: Abdominal pain is one of the most prominent symptoms in patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP) and can manifest intermittently or persistently. The mechanism of pain is not yet clear, and no effective treatment is currently available. This study aimed to explore the risk factors for pain in patients with CP, which may provide new insights for developing effective pain control modalities.

Department of Cardiology, University Medical Centre Groningen, University of Groningen, 9713 GZ Groningen, The Netherlands.
Background: Micronutrient deficiencies are common and play a significant role in the prognosis of many chronic diseases, including heart failure (HF), but their prevalence in HF is not well known. As studies have traditionally focused on causes originating within the intestines, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) has been overlooked as a potential contributor. The exocrine pancreas enables the absorption of various (fat-soluble) micronutrients and may be insufficient in HF.

Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, State Key Laboratory of Complex Severe and Rare Diseases, State Key Laboratory of Common Mechanism Research for Maior Diseases, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China.
Background: Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) are rare in China and differ significantly from the Caucasian populations in terms of clinical and genetic characteristics. However, the progression and mortality of Chinese patients with CF have not been well described.
Results: This study included all 67 patients from the Peking Union Medical College Hospital CF cohort, with a median followed up time of 5.
Clinical Outcomes and Molecular Profiling of Pancreatic Acinar Cell Carcinoma: A Retrospective Study.
JCO Precis Oncol
January 2025
Department of Hematology and Oncology, Mayo Clinic, Phoenix, AZ.
Purpose: Pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma (PACC) is a rare and aggressive form of pancreatic cancer that originates in the acinar cells of the exocrine pancreas. In this study, we aimed to investigate the clinical and molecular characteristics of patients with PACC at our institution.
Methods: This was a retrospective study of patients with PACC seen at Mayo Clinic between 2002 and 2023.
