Trimetazidine significantly reduces cerulein-induced pancreatic apoptosis

In this study, we showed that trimetazidine treatment significantly decreases the levels of IL-1β, amylase and lipase reduces pancreatic apoptosis and ameliorates the histopathological findings of cerulein-induced acute pancreatitis. Trimetazidine could be a new therapeutic option in the early treatment of acute pancreatitis.
