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…
IntroductionCystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) plays a central role in pancreatic ductal fluid secretion by mediating Cl- and HCO3- ion transport across the apical membrane. Severe CFTR mutations that diminish chlori…
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…
