Article Abstract

Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), a serious inflammatory disease of the pancreas, can easily lead to systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and multiple organ dysfunction syndromes (MODS). Acute lung injury (ALI) is one of the most serious complications of SAP. However, the specific pathogenesis of SAP-associated ALI is not fully understood. Crosstalk and multi-mechanisms involving pancreatic necrosis, bacteremia, intestinal barrier failure, activation of inflammatory cascades and diffuse alveolar damage is the main reason for the unclear pathological mechanism of SAP-associated ALI. According to previous research on SAP-associated ALI in our laboratory and theories put forward by other scholars, we propose that the complex pattern of SAP-associated ALI is based on the "pancreas-intestine-inflammation/endotoxin-lung (P-I-I/E-L) pathway". In this review, we mainly concentrated on the specific details of the "P-I-I/E-L pathway" and the potential treatments or preventive measures for SAP-associated ALI.

Acute liver injury (ALI) is a vital factor in the early progression of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). It exacerbates systemic inflammation, impairs the liver's capacity to clear inflammatory mediators and cytokines, and contributes to systemic organ dysfunction syndrome (SODS). However, the mechanisms driving SAP-associated liver injury (SAP-ALI) are poorly understood, and effective therapeutic options remain limited.

Background: Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) has high morbidity, a complicated and dangerous course, and many complications, including severe pulmonary complications. SAP-associated acute lung injury (SAP-ALI) is still a significant challenge for surgeons because of its high mortality. Therefore, more effective treatment methods are urgently needed.

Acute lung injury (ALI) is closely related to high mortality in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). This study unveils the therapeutic effect and mechanism of miR-217-5p on SAP-associated ALI. The miR-217-5p RNA expression was significantly up-regulated in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated primary rat alveolar epithelial type II cells (AEC II) and sodium taurocholate-treated pancreas and lung in SAP rats.

Purpose: Explore the therapeutic effects and regulatory mechanism of Qingyi Decoction (QYD) on severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) associated acute lung injury (ALI).

Methods: We identified the constituents absorbed into the blood of QYD based on a network pharmacological strategy. The differentially expressed genes from the GEO database were screened to identify the critical targets of QYD treatment of SAP-ALI.
