Abstract
Whether the cause or the consquence of this disease, pancreatic activation of pancreatic zymogens is peculiar to acute pancreatitis. This activation is originated by trypsinogen activation, and is followed by a parenteral release of produced enzymes, particularly of trypsin. This parenteral release of trypsin has been proved by detecting and measuring trypsin in plasma, in the presence of inhibitors and other enzymes with similar specificities.
