High Incidence of PRSS1 and SPINK1 Mutations in Korean Children With Acute Recurrent and Chronic Pancreatitis

Abstract: The frequencies of the PRSS1 and SPINK1 mutations are relatively high in Korean children with ARP or CP. Mutations in the PRSS1 and SPINK1 genes are highly associated with the development of childhood ARP or CP. Our findings suggest that patients with genetic mutations combined with pancreas divisum tend to develop CP early.

“…However, on looking at the data from a different angle it was found that genetic mutations were present in 78% of idiopathic chronic/acute recurrent pancreatitis patients compared to just 12% in patients with a known aetiology of pancreatitis. Similar to the present study, the study from Korea [19] in 32 children with acute recurrent and chronic pancreatitis showed SPINK1mutations in 34.4% of cases. Results of these studies and our observation have established that SPINK1 mutation is frequently associated with chronic pancreatitis, especially in idiopathic cases.…”

“…Studies in adults have shown that 25-44% of idiopathic chronic pancreatitis cases are associated with genetic mutations (mainly SPINK1) [13][14][15][16]. So far, there are three studies in chronic/acute recurrent pancreatitis in children [17][18][19] and only one in acute pancreatitis of various aetiologies [20]. Unlike in adults, there is a scarcity of studies on idiopathic pancreatitis in children and none so far on the impact of genetic mutations of natural history of acute and acute recurrent pancreatitis.…”

“…Sánchez-Ramirez et al 18 observaram 36 crianças com diagnóstico de PA e 19 com pancreatite recorrente, concluindo que em cerca de 35% dos casos a causa era idiopática, mesmo após investigação completa, conforme já apontado em estudos anteriores, que descrevem valores entre 10-20% de PA idiopática em crianças 19,20 . Ainda, evidências recentes apontam que parte significativa dos casos de pancreatite idiopática em crianças está relacionada a mutações genéticas diversas 18,21 , responsáveis pela ocorrência da doença diretamente ou predisponentes desta, muitas das quais localizadas no braço longo do cromossomo 7 (7q35), onde muitos genes envolvidos com a transcrição e regulação do tripsinogênio estão localizados 22 .…”

“…They reported that five mutants, including the p.G208A (c.623G>C), showed reduced secretion, suggesting that these variants might increase the risk of pancreatitis related to mutation-induced misfolding and consequent ER stress. Interestingly, the p.G208A variant had been reported only in Asian subjects: a 12-year-old Asian male with CP, a Korean child with recurrent acute pancreatitis, and a 7-yearold Korean child with necrotizing acute pancreatitis (Keiles and Kammesheidt 2006;Lee et al 2011). We therefore conducted screening of the PRSS1 p.G208A (c.623G>C) variant and found an association with pancreatitis in Japan (Masamune et al 2014).…”
