ABSTRACT
The pancreas is made of two compartments the exocrine pancreas, a source of digestive enzymes, and the endocrine islets which produce vital hormones. Distinct diseases could arise in the pancreas such as diabetes, neuroendocrine tumors, pancreatitis, and pancreatic cancers. Various treatment methods are being researched against these diseases. Treatment with recombinant proteins, therapeutic antibodies, vaccination, gene therapy, tissue engineering, and stem cell treatment are treatment methods. Furthermore, biomarkers are important for both treatment and diagnosis. However, some of the treatment methods mentioned above have not yet been applied to some pancreatic diseases. This review provides insights into the latest advancements in diagnosis and treatment for pancreatic diseases within the scope of medical biotechnology. In addition, some methods that are not yet used for treatment purposes for pancreatic diseases but are used in other diseases that occur in different organs due to similar reasons have been investigated. In this context, possible diagnosis and treatment methods for pancreatic diseases are interpreted. The first aim of this review is to bring together and present the current diagnosis and treatment methods for pancreatic diseases. The second aim is to highlight methods that may have treatment potential by comparing pancreatic diseases that cannot be treated with similar diseases.
