<h4>Objectives</h4>Long-term ethanol consumption does not cause acute pancreatitis but rather sensitizes the pancreas to subsequent insults. The mechanisms responsible for this sensitization are unknown. To determine whether alterations in pancreatic gene expression might participate in ethanol-mediated sensitization, we performed gene-profiling analysis.<h4>Methods</h4>Animals were fed ethanol-containing Lieber-DeCarli or control diet (pair-fed). After 8 weeks, pancreatic RNA expression was ana ...[more]
