Objective -to identify mechanisms of osteopenic syndrome implementation in patients with comorbid course of COPD and chronic pancreatitis (CP). 51 patients with comorbidity of CP and COPD (main group), 47 - with isolated COPD (compared group) have been examined. Assessment of excretory function of the pancreas was performed by determination of elastase-1 in the feces. Concentrations of interleukin-1β, interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α were determined by ELISA. It has been found out that patients with comorbid pathology are characterized by the significant decrease of bone mineral density than in the compared group. The progression of pancreatic dysfunction exacerbates the processes of bone resorption. It was estimated that increasing of proinflammatory cytokines concentration leads to considerable enhancement of osteopenic processes. The presence of concomitant chronic pancreatitis in patients with COPD brings in an aggravation of resorptive processes in bone tissue, the severity of which depends on the degree of excretory pancreatic insufficiency and expressivity of proinflammatory cytokine cascade.

D015519 Bone Density The amount of mineral per square centimeter of BONE. This is the definition used in clinical practice. Actual bone density would be expressed in grams per milliliter. It is most frequently measured by X-RAY ABSORPTIOMETRY or TOMOGRAPHY, X RAY COMPUTED. Bone density is an important predictor for OSTEOPOROSIS.

D016207 Cytokines Non-antibody proteins secreted by inflammatory leukocytes and some non-leukocytic cells, that act as intercellular mediators. They differ from classical hormones in that they are produced by a number of tissue or cell types rather than by specialized glands. They generally act locally in a paracrine or autocrine rather than endocrine manner. Cytokine

It is characterized by the irregular destruction of the pancreatic parenchyma which may be focal, segmental, or diffuse. Chronic Pancreatitis
