INTRODUCTION

The prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) is developing rapidly and expected to double globally

from 171 million in 2000 to 366 million in 2030 with a maximum rise in India. It is expected that

DM may affect up to 79.4 million individuals in India by 2030[1]. Biochemical cause of DM in

type 1 and type 2 is decreased or lack of insulin secretion and resistance to insulin action

respectively. Insulin is secreted by islets cell of the pancreas. Pancreas is both an endocrine and

an exocrine gland with clusters of endocrinal islet cells dispersed among exocrinal acinar cells[2].

Acinar cells and islet cells are in close proximity with each other. Defect in islet cells observed in

diabetes may disturb neighbouring acinar cells of the pancreas[3].

Enzymes which are released from pancreas are amylase, lipase and proteases[4]. Insulin binds

with its receptor on acinar cells and stimulates amylase secretion through number of ways[5].

Besides these putative mechanisms, there are multiple defects in the insulin secretion and the

signaling in type 2 diabetes, which may affect the enzyme synthesis and release in the exocrine

pancreas. Not only this, also, the secretion of the pancreatic juice is controlled by the autonomic

nervous system and by the naturally occurring gut hormones, cholecystokinin and secretin. This

complex interplay is often found to be disturbed in diabetes due to the well-known complications

of autonomic neuropathy and the microvascular complications, which are so common in

Diabetes mellitus. Defects in insulin secretion and function leads to hyperglycaemia and may

affect the enzyme synthesis and release from exocrine pancreas. High value of amylase and

lipase enzyme is seen in pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer and pancreatic duct obstruction[6].

Recently some studies showed that low serum amylase and lipase values are associated with

metabolic syndrome and diabetes[7,8].

Even though exocrine-endocrine relationship in the pancreas has been a center of attention in

animal and cellular studies, in the human diabetic research, very little concern on pancreatic

exocrine function has been paid. Most of the studies are targeted on metabolic derangement

induced by persistent hyperglycemia due to decreased insulin levels. Animal and cellular studies

showing the relationship between the endocrine and the exocrine pancreas have persistently

observed that insulin affects amylase secretion via islet acinar cell axis. There are confusing

results regarding serum lipase levels in DM.

Very few studies have been conducted comparing the exocrine functioning of pancreas in

patients of type II diabetes mellitus. Thus there is need for more extensive studies to assess the

role of serum amylase and lipase levels as biochemical markers for pancreatic exocrine function.

KEY WORDS

1) Serum Amylase levels.

2) Serum Lipase levels.

3) Type II Diabetes Mellitus.

4) Endocrine – exocrine axis of pancreas.

AIM

“TO EVALUATE SERUM AMYLASE AND SERUM LIPASE AS

BIOCHEMICAL MARKERS OF PANCREATIC EXOCRINE FUNCTION IN

TYPE II DIABETES MELLITUS.”

OBJECTIVE

1) To compare Serum Amylase and Lipase levels in type II diabetic patients

with non-diabetic individuals.

2) To study prevalence of exocrine dysfunction (as per abnormal serum

Amylase and Lipase levels) in patients of type II diabetes mellitus compared

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

DIABETES MELLITUS

Diabetes mellitus is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia with disturbances of carbohydrate,

fat, and protein metabolism resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action or both.

When fully expressed, diabetes is characterized by fasting hyperglycemia, but the disease can

also be recognized during less overt stages, most usually by presence of glucose intolerance.

ENDOCRINE PART OF PANCREAS, ITS HORMONES AND THEIR

FUNCTIONS [9]

• Alpha cells that produce glucagon and make up 15–20% of total islet cells. Glucagon is a

hormone that raises blood glucose levels by stimulating the liver to convert its glycogen

into glucose.

• Beta cells that produce insulin and amylin and make up 65–80% of the total islet cells.

Insulin lowers blood glucose levels by stimulating cells to take up glucose out of the blood

stream. Amylin slows gastric emptying, preventing spikes in blood glucose levels.

• Delta cells that produce somatostatin and make up 3–10% of the total islet cells.

Somatostatin is a hormone that suppresses the release of the other hormones made in the

pancreas.

• Gamma cells that produce pancreatic polypeptide and make up 3–5% of the total islet

cells. Pancreatic polypeptide regulates both the endocrine and exocrine pancreatic

secretions.

• Epsilon cells that produce ghrelin and make up less than 1% of the total islet cells. Ghrelin

is a protein that stimulates hunger.

EXOCRINE PART OF PANCREAS, ITS ENZYMES AND THEIR

FUNCTIONS

PROTEASES

• Chymotrypsinogen and Trypsinogen → digest proteins and peptides to single amino

acids.

PANCREATIC LIPASE → digests triglycerides, monoglyceride and free fatty acids

AMYLASE → digests starch and maltose (disaccharides)

EXOCRINE-ENDOCRINE AXIS OF PANCREAS [10]

Prominent changes in the structure and functions of the exocrine pancreas have been identified in

a sizable number of the commoner forms of diabetes, who are usually not expected to have

exocrine insufficiency. Studies have shown changes in the size of zymogen granules, loss of

acinar cells, acinar fibrosis and pancreatic atrophy in both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. Exocrine

Pancreatic Insufficiency [EPI] has also been documented in some forms of Maturity Onset

Diabetes in Young [MODY], namely MODY 3, MODY 5, MODY 8.

Although pancreas has traditionally been considered as two separate organ systems, both the

exocrine and endocrine portions are interrelated. Within the pancreas the exocrine parenchyma

and endocrine islet tissue lie in intimate contact with each other and are anatomically and

physiologically interconnected. This is partly due to the fact that pancreatic islets are not

surrounded by any capsule/ membrane and acinar tissue of the pancreas lies in close contact with

these islets. The capillary plexuses arising of major feeding arteries supply the islets and acini

separately. But the outflow of blood from the islets drains into acinar capillary network. So, the

exocrine pancreas receives at least a part of its blood flow coming through the nearby islets

which forms the so called “insulo-acinar axis”; as a result acinar cells are exposed to high

concentration of islet hormones. Such intrapancreatic portal system suggests a possible influence

of endocrine islets upon the exocrine pancreas.

WHY SERUM AMYLASE AND LIPASE IN DIABETES ?[11]

Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) is defined by a deficiency of exocrine

pancreatic enzymes resulting in an inability to maintain normal digestion. This

inadequate digestion with nutrient and, especially, fat malabsorption occurs when

intraduodenal levels of lipase fall below 5–10% of normal enzyme output, leading

to pancreatic steatorrhea, weight loss, and a potential decrease in quality of life. Fat

maldigestion is compounded by decreased pancreatic secretion of lipase and

colipase, further dampening hydrolysis of intraluminal fat.

On the other hand, Some studies also showed that there is increase in enzyme

levels indicating inflammatory damage to exocrine pancreas.

REVIEW OF PREVIOUS RESEARCH

In a case control study[12] conducted at Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka, Bangladesh

by Tanvi NEJ, Akhter QS et al in 2015 to know whether impaired pancreatic

endocrine activity in diabetes mellitus affects its exocrine function by assessing

serum amylase and lipase levels in subjects with type II diabetes mellitus. Fifty

type 2 diabetic subjects with age ranging from 40 to 55 years of both sexes were

enrolled in this study and 50 age matched healthy subjects were control group.

Patients were enrolled from Outpatient Department of Endocrinology, Dhaka

Medical College Hospital, Dhaka. Serum amylase and serum lipase levels were

estimated by spectrophotometry. It was concluded that serum amylase and lipase

levels were significantly lower (P<0.001) in patients of type II DM in comparison

to control group. From this study, it was concluded that exocrine derangement of

pancreas may occur in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

A case-control study[13] was conducted at Biochemistry Department, GMERS

Medical College, Valsad, Gujarat, India by Madole MB, Iyer CM et al to evaluate

serum amylase and lipase levels in diabetes mellitus patients in 2015-2016. Fasting

venous blood samples were collected from the cases as well as the controls and

they were analysed by using semi auto analyser for blood glucose, serum amylase

and serum lipase.The study clearly demonstrated that in diabetes mellitus, there

was increase in fasting blood sugar with decrease in serum amylase and serum

lipase which signifies the derangement of endocrine-exocrine axis of the pancreas.

Serum amylase and serum lipase can be used as biochemical markers for

assessment of pancreatic exocrine function. It was found that fasting blood sugar

was significantly higher in cases as compared to controls. A negative correlation of

fasting blood sugar level with serum amylase and serum lipase and positive

correlation of serum amylase with serum lipase in diabetic patients was found.

In a case control study[14] conducted at Bangalore medical college and research

centre, Bangalore, India by Vishwanath HL, Shwetha N, 30 age and sex matched

diagnosed cases of type 2 DM between 40-80yr were included in the study and 30

healthy individuals as controls. Study was to assess biochemical analysis of serum

amylase and serum lipase levels in patients of type II diabetes mellitus. It was

concluded that here was a considerable decline in serum amylase (p<0.0001) and

serum lipase (p=0.00661) in diabetic patients compared to controls who were age

and sex matched. It showed pancreatic exocrine destruction in type 2 DM. Serum

pancreatic enzymes can be used as an extra explanatory parameter for the

evaluation of progression of the disease and response to treatment.

In another study[15] conducted by Aughsteen AA et al in Al-Isra Medical

Laboratory, Amman, Jordan during the period from April - November 2003 on

analysis of pancreatic amylase and lipase levels in patients of type 1 and 2 diabetes

mellitus, it was concluded that serum amylase was reduced in both type I and II

diabetes whereas serum lipase was reduced only in type I diabetes. Also, reduction

in levels of both enzymes was higher in long standing illness indicating duration of

disease has a role in affecting the exocrine functioning of pancreas.

In this large cross sectional study of type 2 diabetic patients from LEADER[16]

(Liraglutide Effect and Action in Diabetes: Evaluation of Cardiovascular Outcome

Results), New England Journal Of Medicine (NEJM) conducted by Steinberg WM,

Nauck MA et al which is a double blinded placebo controlled trial between 2010-

2012 to study activity of serum amylase and serum lipase in type 2 diabetics, it was

concluded that nearly 25% had elevated lipase or amylase levels.

DATA ANALYSIS

All data will be recorded in CRF (Case Record Form) and compiled in MS office excel. Then

data analysis will be done by statistical software. Descriptive statistics, Odds ratio, Chi Square

test and Regression analysis will be applied for analysis.

Likely outcome and benefit of the study

1) This study will be helpful in generating more data on prevalence of exocrine pancreatic

dysfunction in type II diabetic patients by demonstrating variation in Serum Amylase and

Serum Lipase levels compared to that in non-diabetic individuals.

2) Serum Amylase and Serum Lipase level might show variations in type II diabetes patients

indicating endocrine derangement can involve exocrine part of pancreas.

3) This study will be able to demonstrate effect of duration of type II DM on exocrine

function of pancreas.

4) This study will be helpful to study association between Amylase and Lipase levels with

glycemic control (HbA1c).

ETHICAL ISSUES

1. At no point of time the patient will be enrolled in the study without his/her consent or

willingness to enroll him/her in above study.

2. This study does not include any treatment experimentation.

3. Study also does not necessitate any harmful procedures. So, this study is not likely to

raise any ethical issues.

4. Most routine investigations required for the study are a part of routine workup of

patients and do not pose heavy financial burden to the patient.

5. As serum amylase and lipase are not a part of routine investigation for type II diabetes

mellitus, I will explain patients the importance and usefulness of the tests as they are the

predictors of damage that can occur to pancreas and cause digestive derangements in

patients by involvement of exocrine pancreas. If the patient agrees, he/she will

contribute in the study or else the primary investigator will bear the cost.

FEASIBILITY ISSUES

Our hospital is rural based tertiary care center. We get many patients of type II diabetes mellitus.

We also have fully equipped 24 hours Central laboratory facility. So all investigations needed for

this study including Serum Amylase and Lipase will be done in the central lab of the hospital

only. So this study is highly feasible at our institute and there are no feasibility concerns.
