    Objective: This study aimed to find new serum biochemistry parameters, especially for the early identification of severe AP. In the study serum cytokine levels (TNF-A, IL-1, IL-6, IL-10, IL-21), biochemical parameters (Aquaporin-1, Hepcidine, Iron, Zinc, Copper, Nitric Oxide, C-Reactive protein), and oxidative stress parameters analysis were performed. Method: A total of 46 patients with AP and 46 healthy controls were included in this study. Serum cytokine levels, biochemical, and oxidative stress parameters by the ELISA method, and CRP by the immunoturbidimetric method were measured. Results: When patients with AP and control groups were compared, all studied parameters were found to be statistically significant (p<0.05). However, IL-1 was found to be insignificant (p>0.05). Therefore, the Mann-Whitney U test, which is a non-parametric test, was found suitable to determine whether there was a significant difference between the patient and control groups. Conclusions: Investigating the role of cytokines, oxidative stress and other biochemical parameters in the pathogenesis and course of the disease may contribute to a better understanding of the disease process and its therapeutic value. It showed a significant increase in oxidative stress parameters and biochemical parameters such as aquaporin-1, hepcidin, lipase, and amylase, which may help in the diagnosis of AP.
