【Abstract】Objective To study the change of pancreatic microcirculation in the early phase of acute pancreatitis. MethodsLiteratures on acute pancreatitis and microcirculation were collected and reviewed.ResultsPancreatic microcirculation has changed in the early phase of acute pancreatitis, including contraction of interlobular arteriole, slowing of blood fluid, increasing of pancreatic vascular permeability, leukocyte adherence in postcapillary venules, and decreasing of pancreatic perfusion.Conclusion Impairment of pancreatic microcirculation in the early phase of acute pancreatitis may play a key role in the progression of this disease.
慢性胰腺炎是胰腺进行性炎症性疾病，以胰腺实质持续性破坏和纤维化等不可逆性的形态改变为其特征，并引起顽固性疼痛和(或)永久性功能丧失。迄今，其发病机理、病理生理和疾病过程仍不十分清楚，各种治疗也仅限于疾病的并发症。
目的 探讨急性胰腺炎继发感染的治疗方法。方法 分析总结我院1998～1999年收治的20例胰腺感染患者，采用经后上腰腹膜后引流及灌洗方法治疗的资料。结果 术后并发症： 残余脓肿2例，消化道出血1例，肠瘘4例，胰瘘6例，经治疗后患者全部治愈。结论 该治疗方法残余感染及死亡率低。
Objective To explore the effect of Frey procedure on patients with chronic pancreatitis, and evaluate pain control as well as the quality of life (QOL) after Frey procedure. Methods The clinical data of 81 patients with chronic pancreatitis who underwent Frey procedure in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2010 to January 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Izbicki pain score and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC-QLQ-C30) were used to assess pain and QOL respectively. Results The mean value of operative time were (252±70) minutes (180-430 minutes), the mean value of blood loss were (220±142) mL (100-550 mL), and the mean value of hospital stay were (14.1±4.9) days (8-36 days). After Frey procedure, delayed gastric emptying occurred in 4 patients, hemorrhage occurred in 1 patient, wound infection or fat liquefaction occurred in 6 patients, abdominal infection and pyoperitoneum occurred in 4 patients, and pancreatic fistula occurred in 3 patients. All of the patients were followed up for 4-60 months, and the median time were 28 months. During the follow up period, 11 patients developed diabetes and 10 patients developed steatorrhea, respectively. In addition, the pain related score, including frequency of pain attacks, visual analogue scale of pain, analgetic medication, inability to work, and total pain score, were significantly reduced after Frey procedure (P＜0.001). Moreover, all the functional scales of EORTC -QLQ-C30, except for cognitive function, were improved postoperatively (P ＜0.001). Regarding to the symptom scales, the score of fatigue, pain, loss of appetite, and loss of body weight were significantly lower after surgery (P＜0.050). The scores of QOL after surgery were higher than before surgery (P＜0.001). Conclusion Frey procedure results in good post-operative pain control and significant improvement in qol.
ObjectiveTo construct DPC4 gene recombinant expression vector and to study the inhibitory effect of DPC4 on the growth of human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell line (PC3) cells.MethodsDPC4 cDNA was amplified from K562 cell line using RTPCR, and was cloned into the pcDNA3.1 vector to construct a recombinant expression vector plasmid pcDNA3.1DPC4. The recombinant expression plasmid was transferred into PC3 cells by liposome method. After G418 selection, cell cycle and apoptosis were assessed by flow cytometry, then the cell growth rate was estimated by cell count. The cells being not transferred plasmid and transferred pcDNA3.1 plasmid were used as controls.ResultsThe DPC4 gene recombinant expression vector was constructed. Wildtype DPC4 gene attributed to the increase of G1 phase cells and the decrease of S phase cells in PC3 cells,and could inhibit the growth of PC3 cells, the cell growth rates was reduced to 34.3%-41.1% of that of the controls, but cell apoptosis was not observed on all groups. ConclusionWildtype DPC4 gene could inhibit the proliferation of human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells and could become one of the target genes of pancreas adenocarcinoma gene therapy
Objective To study the effects of endothelin (ET) on acute pancreatitis in rats. Methods The acute edematous pancreatitis (AEP) and hemorrhagic necrotizing pancreatitis (AHNP) model of rats were induced by cerulein and dextran-110 and endothelin-1 was administered on AEP rats via intravenous injection. Serum amylase, plasma ET and 6-Keto-PGF1α, pancreas hostologic observation were determined. Results The serum concentration of amylase increased markedly in AHNP rats, and there was a significant difference between AHNP and AEP (Ｐ＜0.01). A dose of extrinsic ET-1 may induce the conversion of AEP to AHNP in rats. The degree of pancreatic damage correlates positively with the level of the plasma ET. Conclusion Endothelin might take part in the development of acute pancreatitis, and play a key role in the conversion of AEP to AHNP.
Objective To study the basic and clinical achievements in diagnosis and therapy of hereditary pancreatitis. Methods Related literatures of recent years were reviewed. Results Hereditary pancreatitis was a rare type of pancreatitis, with an estimated penetrance of 80%, and was believed to be caused by a mutation in the cationic trypsinogen gene. Patients with hereditary pancreatitis had a high frequency of pancreatic cancer.Conclusion The progress has been made on hereditary pancreatitis and has given us many useful suggestions for a better understanding about this difficult medical problem.
