ABSTRACT
@#Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has posed a serious challenge to emergency departments that usually encounter emergencies and severe diseases.[1⇓⇓⇓-5] Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), a protein that interacts with the viral spike protein(s), allows SARS-CoV-2 to penetrate epithelial cells.[6] There is mounting evidence that suggests that the digestive system may also be affected.[7] An observational study described potential patterns of pancreatic injury (elevated amylase and lipase) in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).[8] Additionally, sporadic case reports have described secondary pancreatitis in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection and presented imaging evidence.[9] Moreover, a previous study showed that COVID-19 patients not only have a higher risk of developing acute pancreatitis (AP), but also have a significantly higher mortality than those without COVID-19.[10] Using bioinformatics analysis, it may be possible to reveal how COVID-19 and AP are related. In this study, two RNA-seq datasets of SARS-CoV-2 and AP were selected for analysis.
