Autoimmune Pancreatitis (AIP) is a persistent inflammation that responds to steroid medication and is thought to be caused by the body's immune system attacking the pancreas. Pancreas-activated neutrophils generate more cytokines, enhancing the inflammatory response by recruiting extra neutrophils, macrophages, and innate immune cells. Both acute and chronic pancreatitis might cause your pancreas to produce fewer enzymes required to break down and utilize nutrients from food. Even if you eat the same meals or the same amount of food, this can result in malnutrition, diarrhoea, and weight loss.
