Acute pancreatitis experimental models, advantages and disadvantages

Le résumé fourni par la source

Acute pancreatitis represents a severe health problem, not only because of the number of people affected but also because of the severity of its clinical presentation that can eventually lead to the death of patients. The study of the disease is complex, and we lack optimized models that can approach the clinical presentation in patients, in addition to the significant vulnerability of the organ itself. In the present work, we undertook the task of reviewing and analyzing the experimental methods most currently used for the induction of acute pancreatitis, emphasizing the advantages and disadvantages of each model and their delimitation based on experimental objectives. We aimed to provide an actual and quick-access guide for researchers interested in experimental acute pancreatitis.
