Palmitic and stearic acids do not change the CCL2 expression in pancreatic acini.
The unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) oleic and linoleic up-regulate CCL2 in acini.
MAPKs and JAK act as upstreams in the acinar CCL2 expression induced by UFAs.
UFAs-induced CCL2 up-regulation is synergically mediated by NF-魏B and STAT3.
By blocking NF-魏B and STAT3, 15d-PGJ2 inhibits the UFA-induced CCL2 expression.
