【Abstract】ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury on apoptosis of pancreatic cells in rats with acute pancreatitis(AP). MethodsFifty-four SD rats were randomized into 3 groups: pancreatitis group (n=24), I/R-injury group (n=24) and control group (n=6). The animal model of AP was induced by retrograde injection of 3% sodium taurocholate into biliopancreatic duct in rats. Pancreatic I/R was caused by blocking the inferior splenic artery and removing the clamp after AP induction. At 1 h, 3 h, 6 h and 12 h, groups of rats were sacrificed. A terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotion nick end labeling (TUNEL) was used to detect pancreatic apoptosis, and histological changes of the pancreas were observed. ResultsPancreatic hemorrhage, necrosis were respectively observed in the pancreatitis rats at 6 h and the I/R-injury rats at 1 h. Histological changes of the pancreatitis rats at 1 h and 3 h were only congestion and edema. Apoptoic acinar cells increased after AP induction, the peak respectively appeared at 6 h in the pancreatitis rats and at 3 h in the I/R-injury rats. Compared with the pancreatitis rats, apoptosis index (AI) of the I/Rinjury rats was significantly higher at 1 h and 3 h (P<0.01, P<0.05, respectively), but lower at 6 h and 12 h (P<0.05, P<0.01, respectively). ConclusionI/R injury can induce conversion of edematous pancreatitis to hemorrhagic necrotizing pancreatitis and apoptosis of acinar cells. Apoptosis may be a beneficial response to pancreatic injury in AP.
Objective To investigate the inhibitory effects of RNA interference (RNAi) expression vector on the expression of survivin in pancreatic cancer cell PANC-1. Methods The protein and mRNA expressions of survivin were examined with immunofluorescence and RT-PCR. The survivin gene was cloned into the T-vector and sequenced. The RNAi expression vectors targeting survivin, named si-svv-1 and si-svv-2 respectively according to whether they harbored a mutation or no mutation, were constructed and transfected into PANC-1 cells with liposome. The expression of survivin mRNA was detected with RT-PCR. Apoptosis of PANC-1 cells was analyzed with DNA ladder and FACS. Results There was a high degree expression of survivin in PANC-1 cells. The expression of survivin was not inhibited by RNAi expression vectors si-svv-1, but inhibited about (72.43±8.04)% by si-svv-2 and the apoptosis rate of PANC-1 cells increased to (12.36±1.44)% after 72 h. Conclusion The RNAi expression vector can effectively inhibit the expression of survivin in pancreatic cancer cell PANC-1 cells and induce the apoptosis in PANC-1 cells.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the predictive value of the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) for postoperative overall and severe complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) in the elderly patients with pancreatic cancer. MethodsThe clinical data of the elderly (65 years old or more) patients with pancreatic cancer underwent PD were retrospectively collected, who were admitted to the Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2017 to October 2021. The incidences of postoperative overall and severe complications (Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅲ–Ⅴ was defined as severe complications) were summarized. The univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze whether GNRI was a risk factor for overall and severe complications after PD. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the ability of GNRI to distinguish whether overall or severe complications occurred after PD and to confirm the optimal threshold. Then the patients were assigned into a high nutritional risk group (greater than the optimal threshold) and low nutritional risk group (the optimal threshold or less) based on this. Simultaneously, the clinical outcomes of the two groups were compared. ResultsIn this study, 190 elderly patients with pancreatic cancer were enrolled, 95(50.0%) of whom developed complications, including 28(29.5%) cases of serious complications. The results of multivariate logistic regression model analysis showed that the decreased GNRI was a risk factor for the occurrence of overall and severe complications after PD for the elderly patients [OR(95%CI)=0.361(0.154, 0.848), P=0.019; OR(95%CI)=0.906(0.834, 0.983), P=0.018]. The AUC of GNRI for assessing the occurrence of overall and severe complications was 0.765 and 0.715, respectively, with the optimal critical values of 98 and 96, respectively. Compared with the low nutritional risk group, the high nutritional risk group had higher postoperative total hospitalization costs (Z=–2.37, P=0.019), higher occurrences of overall complications (χ2=44.61, P<0.001) and severe complications (χ2=29.39, P<0.001). ConclusionsIn elderly patients with pancreatic cancer underwent PD, incidence of serious complications is not lower. GNRI has a good discriminative value in terms of postoperative overall and severe complications. When preoperative GNRI is 98 or less and GNRI is 96 or less, patients should be given early preoperative nutritional support treatment in time.
【Abstract】Objective To study the liver injury and effects of aescin on liver in rats with acute pancreatitis. Methods The rats were divided into 3 groups (control group, AP group and aescin group). The serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), hepatic cellular energy charge (EC) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) were detected. The pathologic changes in pancreas and liver were also observed. Results The serum levels of ALT and LDH in aescin group were significantly lower than those of the AP group. The EC and ATP levels were significantly higher in aescin group than that of the AP group. Conclusion Introvenous injection of aescin can alleviate the liver injury in rats with acute pancreatitis.
Objective To explore the effect of artemisinin on the apoptosis of pancreas acinar cells in acute pancreatitis (AP), and to study whether artemisinin can relieve the severity of AP. Methods ① In vivo experiment: twenty one Wistar rats were divided into the following 3 groups randomly: the normal control group, the AP group and the artemisinin group. The model of AP was established by injecting cerulein into the peritoneal cavity of rat. After establishment of AP in the artemisinin group, artemisinin was injected into the peritoneal cavity. Meanwhile normal saline was injected into the peritoneal cavity of rats of the normal control group and the AP group. The apoptosis of pancreas acinar cell was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL). The activity of myeloperoxidase was detected by absorption spectrometry. ② In vitro experiment: the pancreas acinar cells of normal rats were isolated through twostep enzyme digestion, and cultured. These acinar cells were divided into 3 groups: the normal control group, the AP group and the artemisinin group. Then, the cells of AP group were cocultured with cerulein, and those of the artemisinin group were cocultured with cerulein and artemisinin. The apoptosis of pancreas acinar cells were detected by AO dyeing and the measurement of the activity of caspase3. And the activity of LDH and AMS in the culture medium of each group were measured. Results ① In vivo: the apoptosis index of the artemisinin group was sigificantly increased and the activity of myeloperoxidase was obviously decreased compared with the AP group (P<0.05). ② In vitro: the apoptosis index and the activity of caspase3 of the artemisinin group were significantly increased compared with the AP group (P<0.05); the activities of LDH and AMS of the artemisinin group were more decreased than those of the AP group (P<0.05). Conclusion Artemisinin could contribute to the apoptosis of rat pancreas acinar cells, decrease the releasing of trypsogen, alleviate the activation of neutrophil and relieve the severity of AP.

In order to observe activity of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in the serum, pancreatic histopathological damage, as well as their relationships in acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP), thirty five SD rats were randomly divided into 7 groups according to their sampling time with 5 in each group. ANP was induced by retrograde infusion of 5% sodium taurocholate through biliopancreatic duct in 6 experimental groups (Group B1~B6).Blood and pancreatic tissue samples were obtained at hour 0,0.5,2,4,6 or 8 respectively when the animals were sacrificed.Results showed that serum level of TNF activity rose significantly in Group B2,and reached the maximal value in Group B4.The pancreatic histopathological damage in ANP rats was getting worse along with time. Serum TNF activity had close relation to pancreatic histopathological score (r=0.63, P<0.01),suggesting that serum TNF may play an important role in the process of deterioration of pancreatic tissue damage during ANP.
