Acute pancreatitis is an inflammation of the pancreas that may lead to systemic inflammatory response syndrome and death due to multiple organ failure. Acinar cells, together with leukocytes, trigger the inflammatory cascade in response to local damage of the pancreas. Amplification of the inflammatory cascade requires up-regulation of proinflammatory cytokines and this process is mediated not only by nuclear factor κB but also by chromatinmodifying complexes and chromatin remodeling. Among the different families of histone acetyltransferases, the p300/CBP family seems to be particularly associated with the inflammatory process. cAMP activates gene expression via the cAMP-responsive element (CRE) and the transcription factor CRE-binding protein (CREB). CREB can be phosphorylated and activated by different kinases, such as protein kinase A and MAPK, and then it recruits the histone acetyltransferase co-activator CREB-binding protein (CBP) and its homologue p300. The recruitment of CBP/p300 and changes in the level of histone acetylation are required for transcription activation. Transcriptional repression is also a dynamic and essential mechanism of down-regulation of genes for resolution of inflammation, which seems to be mediated mainly by protein phosphatases (PP1, PP2A and MKP1) and histone deacetylases(HDACs) .Class HDACs are key transcriptional regulators whose activities are controlled via phosphorylationdependent nucleo/cytoplasmic shuttling. PP2A is responsible for dephosphorylation of class HDACs, triggeringnuclear localization and repression of target genes, whereas phosphorylation triggers cytoplasmic localization leading to activation of target genes. The potential benefit from treatment with phosphodiesterase inhibitors and histone deacetylase inhibitors is discussed.

AIM: To study the possible association between chronic pancreatitis (CP) and liver cirrhosis (LC) of alcoholic etiology,after excluding any other causes.METHODS: One hundred and forty consecutive alcoholic patients were subdivided into three groups: CP (n = 53),LC (n = 57),and asymptomatic alcoholic (n = 30).Clinical,biochemical and morphological characteristics,Child-Pugh index,indocyanine green test,and fecal pancreatic elastase-1 test were assessed.RESULTS: In patients with cirrhosis,major clinical manifestations of CP such as pancreatic pain and steatorrhea,as well as imaging alterations of CP such as calcifications,duct dilation and pseudocysts were absent; insulin-dependent diabetes was present in 5.3% of cases,and elastase-1 test was altered in only 7%,and severely altered in none.In patients with CP,clinical characteristics of cirrhosis such as ascites,encephalopathy and gastrointestinal hemorrhage were present in one case,Child-Pugh grade > A in 5.7%,and altered indocyanine green test in 1.9% cases.In asymptomatic alcoholism,there was only a non-coincident alteration of elastase-1 test and indocyanine test in 14.8% and 10%,respectively,but other characteristics of cirrhosis or CP were absent.An inverse correlation (r = -0.746) between elastase-1 test and indocyanine test was found in alcoholic patients.CONCLUSION: There is a scarce coincidence in clinical and morphological alterations among patients with CP or LC of alcoholic etiology,but an inverse correlation between pancreatic and liver function tests.These findings support that these alcoholic diseases evolve in a different manner and have different etiopathogenesis.

Pancreatic cancer,with a 5% 5-year survival rate,is the fourth leading cause of cancer death in Western countries.Unfortunately,only 20% of all patients benefit from surgical treatment.The need to prolong survival has prompted pathologists to develop improved protocols to evaluate pancreatic specimens and their surgical margins.Hopefully,the new protocols will provide clinicians with more powerful prognostic indicators and accurate information to guide their therapeutic decisions.Despite the availability of several guidelines for the handling and pathology reporting of duodenopancreatectomy specimens and their continual updating by expert pathologists,there is no consensus on basic issues such as surgical margins or the definition of incomplete excision(R1) of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.This article reviews the problems and controversies that dealing with duodenopancreatectomy specimens pose to pathologists,the various terms used to define resection margins or infiltration,and reports.After reviewing the literature,including previous guidelines and based on our own experience,we present our protocol for the pathology handling of duodenopancreatectomy specimens.

The pancreaticoduodenectomy(PD) procedure may lead to pancreatic exocrine and endocrine insufficiency.There are several types of reconstruction for this kind of operation.Pancreaticogastrostomy(PG) was introduced to reduce the rate of postoperative pancreatic fistula.Although some randomized control trials have shown no differences regarding pancreatic leakage between PG and pancreaticojejunostomy(PJ),recently some reports reveal benefits from the PG over the PJ.Some surgeons concern about the performing of the PG and inactivation of pancreatic enzymes being in contact with the gastric juice,and the detrimental results over the exocrine pancreatic function.The pancreatic exocrine function can be measured with direct and indirect tests.Direct tests have the highest sensitivity and specificity for detection of exocrine insufficiency but require tube placement.Among the tubeless indirect tests,the van de Kamer stool fat analysis remains the standard to diagnose fat malabsorption.The patient compliance and time consuming makes it not so suitable for its clinical use.Fecal immunoreactive elastase test is employed for screening of exocrine insufficiency,is not cumbersome,and has been used to study pancreatic function after resection.We analyze the FE1 levels in our patients after the PD with two types of reconstruction,PG and PJ,and we discuss some considerations about the pancreaticointestinal drainage method after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

AIM:To compare the mydriatic efficacy of an ophthalmic insert(Mydriasert,MY)versus phenylephrine and tropicamide(PT)eye drops.METHODS:Two controlled,prospective,randomized,single-blind studies were performed.In the first study,a total of 80 eyes from 40 outpatient-clinic patients were analyzed.PT drops were applied to the right eye,and a MY device was inserted in the left eye for 30min.Time until maximal pupil dilation for each eye was then assessed.In the second study,80 eyes from 80 patients undergoing cataract surgery were analyzed.Pupil dilation was achieved using either PT drops three-times for one hour prior to surgery(40 patients),or a MY device was inserted one hour prior to surgery(40 patients).RESULTS:In the first study,MY achieved superior mydriasis compared to PT eye drops at 90min(9.04±1.33mm vs 8.78±1.37mm,P=0.012).However MY took longer than PT drops to achieve maximal dilation,and mydriasis was inferior in eyes with MY compared to PT drops at 30min(7.21±1.73mm vs 8.22±1.43mm,P<0.001),the two groups only becoming similar by 60min(8.85±1.44mm vs 8.71±1.27mm,P=0.236).In the second study,both MY and PT achieved similar levels of mydriasis at the beginning of surgery(8.75±0.76mm with MY vs 8.77±0.63mm with PT),and also at the end of surgery(7.96±1.06mm with MY vs 8.32±0.72mm with PT),with no significant difference between groups(P=0.08).MY was well tolerated and cardiovascular effects were not influenced by dilation method.CONLUSION:MY could be a safe and efficacious alternative for mydriasis.The mydriatic effect of MY is as good as conventional PT eye drops after 60min,and is superior after 90min.MY also maintains good pupil dilation during cataract surgery.
