Research progress of autophagy in pancreatic inflammation and fibrosis
Chronic pancreatitis(CP)is a progressive fibroinflammatory disease characterized by destruction of pancreatic aci-nar cells,infiltration of inflammatory cells,activation of pancreatic stellate cell(PSC),and pancreatic fibrosis.Autophagy partici-pates in the maintenance of cell homeostasis.Recent studies have shown that autophagy closely related to the occurrence and develop-ment of CP.However,several autophagy types in the pancreatic microenvironment play different roles in the progression of CP.The autophagy of acinar cells has a"double-edged sword"effect.PSC autophagy is positively correlated with its activation,while the role of autophagy of inflammatory cells is still unclear.This study focused on some key cells in the CP microenvironment and explored the role and mechanism of autophagy in the progression of CP.
