Overview
Pathophysiology
Pathogenesis:
Role of Th1-type CD4+ T cells:
- In the normal pancreatic gland, carbonic anhydrase type II and lactoferrin are located in the ductal cells and pancreatic acini respectively.
- Th1-type CD4+ T cells are thought to play an important role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) via autoimmune reaction against carbonic anhydrase type II or lactoferrin.[1][2][3]
Autoimmune exocrinopathy:
- Autoimmune exocrinopathy is usually defined as an autoimmune disease affecting more than one exocrine organs.[4]
- It can be explained based on the fact that carbonic anhydrase type II and lactoferrin (that act as target antigens) are found not only in pancreatic gland but also in others such as salivary gland, lacrimal gland, and bile duct.
- Autoimmune pancreatitis may also be found coexisting with other autoimmune conditions such as Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and Sjögren's syndrome.[5]
Peripancreatic vascular and lymphatic involvement:
- Autoimmune pancreatitis may involve fibrosis of peripancreatic vessels leading to obliterative vasculitis and phlebitis similar to that occurs in pancreatic cancer.[6][7][8][9]
- Follicular hyperplasia may also be seen due to peripancreatic lymph nodes enlargement.
Genetics
- [Disease name] is transmitted in [mode of genetic transmission] pattern.
- Genes involved in the pathogenesis of [disease name] include [gene1], [gene2], and [gene3].
- The development of [disease name] is the result of multiple genetic mutations.
Associated Conditions
- Autoimmune pancreatitis may be associated with systemic autoimmune conditions such as:[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]
- IgG4-associated cholangitis
- Chronic sclerosing sialadenitis (Küttner's tumor)
- Mikulicz's disease (IgG4-related plasmacytic exocrinopathy)
- Mediastinal fibrosis, adenopathy
- Chronic periaortitis
- Idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis
- Tubulointerstitial nephritis
- IgG4-associated pseudolymphoma
- Ulcerative colitis
- Hypergammaglobulinemia
Gross Pathology
- On gross pathology, findings suggestive of autoimmune pancreatitis may include
Microscopic Pathology
- Microscopic findings suggestive of autoimmune pancreatitis may include:[19]
- Immunohistochemistry stains may show:[7][21]
- CD4+ T cells (mainly)
- Some CD8+ T cells and B cells
- HLA-DR antigen expression on pancreatic duct or acinar cells
Type 1 AIP:
- A lymphoplasmacytic sclerosing pancreatitis
- >10 IgG4-positive cells with at least two of the following
- Periductal lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate
- Obliterative phlebitis
- Acinar fibrosis
Type 2 AIP or Idiopathic duct-centric pancreatitis (IDCP):
- Pancreatic duct: Granulocytic epithelial lesion
- Pancreatic parenchyma: Minimal IgG4-positive cells
