Chaiqin chengqi decoction treatment mitigates hypertriglyceridemia-associated acute pancreatitis by modulating liver-mediated glycerophospholipid metabolism

The incidence of hypertriglyceridemia-associated acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) is increasing globally and more so in China. The characteristics of liver-mediated metabolites and related key enzymes are rarely reported in HTG-AP. Chaiqin chengqi decoction (CQCQD) has been shown to protect against AP including HTG-AP in both patients and rodent models, but the underlying mechanisms in HTG-AP remain unexplored.
