mortality/aging
• survival after induction of pancreatitis is reduced to 53%
|
endocrine/exocrine glands
• increased susceptibility to induced pancreatitis
• when induced by cerulein or a choline deficient and ethionine containing diet
• greater edema is seen resulting in wider separation between pancreatic lobules and acini are disrupted
• increased pancreatic weight
• increased acinar necrosis and higher levels of apoptosis
elevated serum levels of amylase and lipase
increased acinar necrosis and higher levels of apoptosis
• elevated serum levels of amylase and lipase
• increase in trypsin activation peptide and trypsin activity is less than in controls
