Background & Aims: The apical-basal polarity of pancreatic acinar cells is essential for maintaining tissue architecture. However, the mechanisms by which polarity proteins regulate acinar pancreas injury and regeneration are poorly understood. Methods: Cerulein-induced pancreatitis was induced in mice with conditional deletion of the polarity protein Par3 in the pancreas. The impact of Par3 loss on pancreas injury and regeneration was assessed by histologic analyses and transcriptional profiling by RNA sequencing. Mice were pretreated with the bromodomain and extraterminal domain (BET) inhibitor JQ1 before cotreatment with cerulein to determine the effect of BET inhibition on pancreas injury and regeneration. Results: Initially, we show that Par3 is increased in acinar-ductal metaplasia (ADM) lesions present in human and mouse chronic pancreatitis specimens. Although Par3 loss disrupts tight junctions, Par3 is dispensable for pancreatogenesis. However, with aging, Par3 loss results in low-grade inflammation, acinar degeneration, and pancreatic lipomatosis. Par3 loss exacerbates acute pancreatitis-induced injury and chronic pancreatitis-induced acinar cell loss, promotes pancreatic lipomatosis, and prevents regeneration. Par3 loss also results in suppression of chronic pancreatitis-induced ADM and primary ciliogenesis. Notably, targeting BET proteins attenuates chronic pancreatitis-induced loss of primary cilia and promotes ADM in mice lacking pancreatic Par3. Targeting BET proteins also attenuates cerulein-induced acinar cell loss and enhances recovery of acinar cell mass and body weight of mice lacking pancreatic Par3. Conclusions: Combined, this study demonstrates how Par3 restrains chronic pancreatitis-induced changes in the pancreas and identifies a potential role for BET inhibitors to attenuate pancreas injury and facilitate regeneration. |
