Abstract
Pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer (PC) stand as the most worrisome ailments affecting the pancreas. Researchers have dedicated efforts to unraveling the mechanisms underlying these diseases, yet their true nature continues to elude their grasp. Within this realm, oxidative stress is often believed to play a causal and contributory role in the development of pancreatitis and PC. Excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) can cause oxidative stress, and the key enzyme responsible for inducing ROS production in cells is nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate hydrogen oxides (NOX). NOX contribute to pancreatic fibrosis and inflammation by generating ROS that injure acinar cells, activate pancreatic stellate cells, and mediate macrophage polarization. Excessive ROS production occurs during malignant transformation and pancreatic carcinogenesis, creating an oxidative microenvironment that can cause abnormal apoptosis, epithelial to mesenchymal transition and genomic instability. Therefore, understanding the role of NOX in pancreatic diseases contributes to a more in-depth exploration of the exact pathogenesis of these diseases. In this review, we aim to summarize the potential roles of NOX and its mechanism in pancreatic disorders, aiming to provide novel insights into understanding the mechanisms underlying these diseases.

Abstract
Glycosylation is closely related to cellular metabolism and disease progression. In particular, glycan levels in cancer cells and tissues increase during cancer progression. This upregulation of glycosylation in cancer cells may provide a basis for the development of new biomarkers for the targeting and diagnosis of specific cancers. Here, they developed a detection technology for pancreatic cancer cell-derived small extracellular vesicles (PC-sEVs) based on lectin-glycan interactions. Lectins specific for sialic acids are conjugated to Janus nanoparticles to induce interactions with PC-sEVs in a dielectrophoretic (DEP) system. PC-sEVs are selectively bound to the lectin-conjugated Janus nanoparticles (lectin-JNPs) with an affinity comparable to that of conventionally used carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) antibodies. Furthermore, sEVs-bound Lectin-JNPs (sEVs-Lec-JNPs) are manipulated between two electrodes to which an AC signal is applied for DEP capture. In addition, the proposed DEP system can be used to trap the sEVs-Lec-JNP on the electrodes. Their results, which are confirmed by lectin-JNPs using the proposed DEP system followed by target gene analysis, provide a basis for the development of a new early diagnostic marker based on the glycan characteristics of PC-sEVs. In turn, these novel detection methods could overcome the shortcomings of commercially available pancreatic cancer detection techniques.

Abstract
Intestinal barrier dysfunction frequently occurs as a complication in cases of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP); however, no effective therapeutic methods are available because the precise mechanism remains obscure. Recent research has elucidated the role of circulating exosomes in the progression of SAP. Therefore, the present study explored whether inhibiting circulating exosomes release would improve intestinal barrier injury triggered via SAP and investigated the possible underlying mechanism. In vivo, we found that circulating exosomes release exhibited a considerable increase in SAP rats than in SO rats, and GW4869, a suppressor of exosomes release, significantly decreased exosomes release in SAP rats. We also observed that GW4869 suppressed NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis within the intestine and alleviated intestinal barrier injury within SAP. Moreover, the inflammatory response and remote organ (kidney and lung) injury associated with SAP improved after GW4869 treatment. In vitro, we confirmed that depletion of exosomes with GW4869 could partially abolish the destructive effects of SAP rat plasma on the viability and barrier function of IEC-6 cells. In summary, our findings show that the suppression of the release of circulating exosomes effectively inhibits the process of pyroptosis mediated by the NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome and, therefore, mitigates intestinal barrier dysfunction in SAP, suggesting that circulating exosomes may be a potential target for treating SAP.

Abstract
Background In sepsis, the lungs are one of the most severely affected organs, usually resulting in acute lung injury (ALI). Capsaicin (CAP) is a natural compound found in chili peppers that has pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory properties. Here, we report that nanoparticles containing capsaicin and iron (Fe-CAP NPs) exhibited anti-inflammatory effects in the treatment of ALI. Methods The morphological characteristics of nanozymes were detected. RAW 264.7 cells were divided into four groups: control, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), CAP+LPS and Fe-CAP+LPS groups. The expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) was assessed by immunofluorescence, Western blot, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) expression was determined by Western blot. C57 mice were divided into control, LPS, CAP+LPS and Fe-CAP+LPS groups. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and iNOS expression in the lung was detected by Western Blot. IL-6 and TNF-α expression in serum was detected by ELISA. Extravasated Evans blue, histopathological evaluation and wet-to-dry (W/D) weight ratio were used to assess pulmonary capillary permeability. The blood and major organs (heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney) of mice were tested for the toxicity of Fe-CAP NPs. Results In the LPS group, TNF-α, iNOS, p-NF-κB and p-IKBα expression increased. However, their expression was significantly decreased in the Fe-CAP+LPS group. TGF-β expression showed the opposite trend. In vivo, IL-6 and iNOS expression was notably increased in the lungs of LPS group of mice but decreased with Fe-CAP pretreatment. Fe-CAP significantly ameliorated lung EB leakage, improved the histopathology of lung tissue and reduced the W/D weight ratio. The nanoparticles showed non-cytotoxicity, when studying these biological activities. Conclusion Fe-CAP NPs could alleviated inflammation by inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory factors in macrophages, increasing the expression of anti-inflammatory factors, and alleviating lung tissue damage.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Around 20% of individuals diagnosed with acute pancreatitis (AP) may develop severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), possibly resulting in a mortality rate ranging from 15% to 35%. There is an urgent need to thoroughly understand the molecular phenotypes of SAP resulting from diverse etiologies. The field of translational research on AP has seen the use of several innovative proteomic methodologies via the ongoing improvement of isolation, tagging, and quantification methods. AREAS COVERED This paper provides a comprehensive overview of differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) identified in AP by searching the PubMed/MEDLINE database (2003-2023) and adds significantly to the current theoretical framework. EXPERT OPINION DAPs for potentially diagnosing AP based on proteomic identification need to be confirmed by multi-center studies that include larger samples. The discovery of DAPs in various organs at different AP stages via proteomic technologies is essential better to understand the pathophysiology of AP-related multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. Regarding the translational research of AP, novel approaches like single-cell proteomics and imaging using mass spectrometry may be used as soon as they become available.

Abstract
Background Numerous preclinical investigations have exhibited the beneficial impact of emodin (EMO) on the management of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP)-associated acute lung injury (ALI). However, the potential of EMO to mitigate organ damage through the modulation of exosome (Exo)-specific miRNA expression profiles remains unclear. Methods The SAP rat model was established by retrograde injection of 5% sodium taurocholate into the pancreatic bile duct. Rats received intragastric administration of EMO at 2 h and 12 h post-modeling. Plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF)-derived exosomes were isolated and purified from SAP rats treated with EMO. The therapeutic effects of these Exos in SAP rats were assessed using hematoxylin-eosin staining and measurement of inflammatory factor levels. MicroRNA (miRNA) sequencing was conducted on plasma and BALF-derived Exos, and rescue experiments were performed to investigate the function of NOVEL miR-29a-3p in the treatment of SAP using EMO. Results EMO exhibits ameliorative effects on pancreatic and lung injury and inflammation in rats with SAP. Plasma/BALF-derived Exos from EMO-treated SAP rats also have therapeutic effects on SAP rats. The miRNA expression profile of plasma and BALF-derived Exos in SAP rats underwent significant changes upon exposure to EMO. In particular, 34 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) were identified when comparing BALF-SAP+EMO-Exo and BALF-SAP-Exo. 39 DEmiRNAs were identified when comparing plasma-SAP+EMO-Exo to plasma-SAP-Exo. We found that SAP rats treated with Exos derived from BALF exhibited a more potent therapeutic response than those treated with Exos derived from plasma. EMO may rely on NOVEL-rno-miR-29a-3p expression to prevent pulmonary injury in SAP rats. Conclusion The mechanism of action of EMO is observed to have a significant impact on the miRNA expression profile of Exos derived from plasma and BALF in SAP rats. NOVEL-rno-miR-29a-3p, which is specific to Exos, and is derived from BALF, may play a crucial role in the therapeutic efficacy of EMO.

Abstract
Some acute inflammatory diseases are often exacerbated during or after hospitalization, leading to some severe manifestations like systemic inflammatory response syndrome, multiple organ failure, and high mortality. Early clinical predictors of disease severity are urgently needed to optimize patient management for better prognosis. The existing clinical scoring system and laboratory tests cannot circumvent the problems of low sensitivity and limited specificity. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are heterogeneous nanosecretory vesicles containing various biomolecules related to immune regulation, inflammation activation, and inflammation-related complications. This review provides an overview of EVs as inflammatory mediators, inflammatory signaling pathway regulators, promoters of inflammatory exacerbation, and markers of severity and prognosis. Currently, although relevant biomarkers are clinically available or are in the preclinical research stage, searching for new markers and detection methods is still warranted, as the problems of low sensitivity/specificity, cumbersome laboratory operation and high cost still plague clinicians. In-depth study of EVs might open a door in the search for novel predictors.

Abstract
Background: Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a severe form of acute pancreatitis with the potential to cause life-threatening complications. Patients with acute SAP require surgical intervention and are admitted to the intensive care unit for non-invasive ventilation. Dexmedetomidine (Dex) is currently used by intensive care clinicians and anaesthesiologists as an adjunctive sedative. Therefore, the clinical availability of Dex makes it easier to implement in SAP treatment than developing new drugs. Methods: Randomly dividing thirty rats into sham-operated (Sham), SAP, and Dex groups. The severity of pancreatic tissue injury in each rat was assessed by Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. Serum amylase activity and inflammatory factor levels were measured using commercially available kits. The expressions of necroptosis-related proteins, myeloperoxidase (MPO), CD68, and 4-hydroxy-trans-2-nonenal (HNE) were detected using immunohistochemistry (IHC). Transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) staining was utilized to identify pancreatic acinar cell apoptosis. The subcellular organelle structure of pancreatic acinar cells was observed using transmission electron microscopy. The regulatory effect of Dex on the gene expression profile of SAP rat pancreas tissue was investigated using RNA sequencing. We screened for differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) measured critical DEG mRNA expression in rat pancreatic tissues. Results: Dex attenuated SAP-induced pancreatic injury, infiltration of neutrophils and macrophages, and oxidative stress. Dex inhibited the expression of necroptosis-associated proteins RIPK1, RIPK3, and MLKL and alleviated apoptosis in acinar cells. Dex also mitigated the structural damage caused by SAP to mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum. Dex inhibited SAP-induced 473 DEGs, as determined by RNA sequencing. Dex may regulate SAP-induced inflammatory response and tissue damage by inhibiting the toll-like receptor/nuclear factor κB (TLR/NF-κB) signaling pathway and neutrophil extracellular trap formation. Conclusion: This study elucidated the remarkable effect of Dex against SAP and investigated the potential mechanism of action, providing an experimental base for the future clinical application of Dex in the treatment of SAP.

Abstract
The occurrence of acute pancreatitis (AP) is increasing significantly worldwide. However, current diagnostic methods of AP do not provide a clear clinical stratification of severity, and the prediction of complications in AP is still limited. Here, we present a robust AP identification and diagnosis (RAPIDx) method by the proteomic fingerprinting of intact nanoscale extracellular vesicles (EVs) from clinical samples. By tracking analysis of circulating biological nanoparticles released by cells (i.e., EVs) via bottom-up proteomics, we obtain close phenotype connections between EVs, cell types, and multiple tissues based on their specific proteomes and identify the serum amyloid A (SAA) proteins on EVs as potential biomarkers that are differentially expressed from AP patients significantly. We accomplish the quantitative analysis of EVs fingerprints using MALDI-TOF MS and find the SAA proteins (SAA1-1, desR-SAA1-2, SAA2, SAA1-2) with areas under the curve (AUCs) from 0.92 to 0.97, which allows us to detect AP within 30 min. We further realize that SAA1-1 and SAA2, combined with two protein peaks (5290.19, 14032.33 m/z), can achieve an AUC of 0.83 for classifying the severity of AP. The RAPIDx platform will facilitate timely diagnosis and treatment of AP before severity development and persistent organ failure and promote precision diagnostics and the early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
Integrins expressed on extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by various cancers are reported to mediate the organotropism of these EVs. Our previous experiment found that pancreatic tissue of mice with severe cases of acute pancreatitis (SAP) overexpresses several integrins and that serum EVs of these mice (SAP-EVs) can mediate acute lung injury (ALI). It is unclear if SAP-EV express integrins that can promote their accumulation in the lung to promote ALI. Here, we report that SAP-EV overexpress several integrins and that preincubation of SAP-EV with the integrin antagonist peptide HYD-1 markedly attenuates their pulmonary inflammation and disrupt the pulmonary microvascular endothelial cell (PMVEC) barrier. Further, we report that injecting SAP mice with EVs engineered to overexpress two of these integrins (ITGAM and ITGB2) can attenuate the pulmonary accumulation of pancreas-derived EVs and similarly decrease pulmonary inflammation and disruption of the endothelial cell barrier. Based on these findings, we propose that pancreatic EVs can mediate ALI in SAP patients and that this injury response could be attenuated by administering EVs that overexpress ITGAM and/or ITGB2, which is worthy of further study due to the lack of effective therapies for SAP-induced ALI.

Abstract
Intercellular communication is a key feature of cancer progression and metastasis. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are generated by all cells, including cancer cells, and recent studies have identified EVs as key mediators of cell-cell communication via packaging and transfer of bioactive constituents to impact the biology and function of cancer cells and cells of the tumor microenvironment. Here, we review recent advances in understanding the functional contribution of EVs to cancer progression and metastasis, as cancer biomarkers, and the development of cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
Sepsis is a syndromic response to infection and is frequently a final common pathway to death from many infectious diseases worldwide. The complexity and high heterogeneity of sepsis hinder the possibility to treat all patients with the same protocol, requiring personalized management. The versatility of extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their contribution to sepsis progression bring along promises for one-to-one tailoring sepsis treatment and diagnosis. In this article, we critically review the endogenous role of EVs in sepsis progression and how current advancements have improved EVs-based therapies toward their translational future clinical application, with innovative strategies to enhance EVs effect. More complex approaches, including hybrid and fully synthetic nanocarriers that mimic EVs, are also discussed. Several pre-clinical and clinical studies are examined through the review to offer a general outlook of the current and future perspectives of EV-based sepsis diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a prevalent clinical condition of the digestive system, with a growing frequency each year. Approximately 20% of patients suffer from severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) with local consequences and multi-organ failure, putting a significant strain on patients' health insurance. According to reports, the lungs are particularly susceptible to SAP. Acute respiratory distress syndrome, a severe type of acute lung injury (ALI), is the primary cause of mortality among AP patients. Controlling the mortality associated with SAP requires an understanding of the etiology of AP-associated ALI, the discovery of biomarkers for the early detection of ALI, and the identification of potentially effective drug treatments. Exosomes are a class of extracellular vesicles with a diameter of 30-150 nm that are actively released into tissue fluids to mediate biological functions. Exosomes are laden with bioactive cargo, such as lipids, proteins, DNA, and RNA. During the initial stages of AP, acinar cell-derived exosomes suppress forkhead box protein O1 expression, resulting in M1 macrophage polarization. Similarly, macrophage-derived exosomes activate inflammatory pathways within endothelium or epithelial cells, promoting an inflammatory cascade response. On the other hand, a part of exosome cargo performs tissue repair and anti-inflammatory actions and inhibits the cytokine storm during AP. Other reviews have detailed the function of exosomes in the development of AP, chronic pancreatitis, and autoimmune pancreatitis. The discoveries involving exosomes at the intersection of AP and acute lung injury (ALI) are reviewed here. Furthermore, we discuss the therapeutic potential of exosomes in AP and associated ALI. With the continuous improvement of technological tools, the research on exosomes has gradually shifted from basic to clinical applications. Several exosome-specific non-coding RNAs and proteins can be used as novel molecular markers to assist in the diagnosis and prognosis of AP and associated ALI.

Abstract
Pancreatic diseases, a serious threat to human health, have garnered considerable research interest, as they are associated with a high mortality rate. However, owing to the uncertain etiology and complex pathophysiology, the treatment of pancreatic diseases is a challenge for clinicians and researchers. Exosomes, carriers of intercellular communication signals, play an important role in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic diseases. Exosomes are involved in multiple stages of pancreatic disease development, including apoptosis, immune regulation, angiogenesis, cell migration, and cell proliferation. Thus, extensive alterations in the quantity and variety of exosomes may be indicative of abnormal biological behaviors of pancreatic cells. This phenomenon could be exploited for the development of exosomes as a new biomarker or target of new treatment strategies. Several studies have demonstrated the diagnostic and therapeutic effects of exosomes in cancer and inflammatory pancreatic diseases. Herein, we introduce the roles of exosomes in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic diseases and discuss directions for future research and perspectives of their applications.
