Stimulation of central α2 receptors attenuates experimental necrotizing pancreatitis

Severe necrotizing pancreatitis (SNP) is a disease with relevant morbidity and mortality until today. No specific therapy is in sight. Central α2 agonists such as clonidine and dexmedetomidine are known to have anti-inflammatory effects though the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway and are implem...

Description
Summary:Severe necrotizing pancreatitis (SNP) is a disease with relevant morbidity and mortality until today. No specific therapy is in sight. Central α2 agonists such as clonidine and dexmedetomidine are known to have anti-inflammatory effects though the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway and are implemented in the clinical routine as adjunct sedative drugs. Their potential effect on SNP has not yet been tested.
