Risk of chronic pancreatitis in carriers of the c.180C>T (p.Gly60=) CTRC variant: case-control studies and meta-analysis.
Pancreatology : official journal of the International Association of Pancreatology (IAP) ... [et al.] ·doi:10.1016/j.pan.2023.05.013

Chymotrypsin C (CTRC) is a digestive serine protease produced by the pancreas that regulates intrapancreatic trypsin activity and provides a defensive mechanism against chronic pancreatitis (CP). CTRC exerts its protective effect by promoti…

Risk of chronic pancreatitis in carriers of loss-of-function CTRC variants: A meta-analysis.
PloS one ·doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0268859

The digestive protease chymotrypsin C (CTRC) protects the pancreas against pancreatitis by degrading potentially harmful trypsinogen. Loss-of-function genetic variants in CTRC increase risk for chronic pancreatitis (CP) with variable effect…

Common calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) gene variants do not modify risk for chronic pancreatitis in a Hungarian cohort.
Pancreatology : official journal of the International Association of Pancreatology (IAP) ... [et al.] ·doi:10.1016/j.pan.2021.08.012

The calcium-sensing receptor (CASR) is expressed in the pancreas where it might regulate calcium concentrations in pancreatic secretions. Two independent studies reported conflicting results claiming that commonly occurring missense variant…
