Abstract:
Objectives To explore the expression of the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) in pancreas and the serum concentration of RAGE in rats with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP).Methods Sixty four male Spraque-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group,ANP 6,18,24,36,48,72,96 h group with 8 rats in each group.The rat model of ANP was established by injecting 20% L-arginine intraperitoneally at the dose of 250mg/100g body weight for twice at the interval of 1 h.Rats in control group were injected intraperitoneally with the same amount of saline.The pancreas samples were histologically examined by light microscope and scored.The amount of ascites,levels of serum amylase and RAGE was determined; Real-time PCR was performed to detect the expression of RAGE mRNA in pancreatic tissue.Results Pancreatic injuries aggravated with time.The amount of ascites increased from ( 1.98 ± 0.64) ml at 6h to (8.69 ±0.62)ml at 96 h.Serum amylase level began to increase at 6h after L-arginine intraperitoneal injection and reached the peak value at 18 h[(5069.88 ± 603.25 ) U/L],and returned to normal at 36 h.The serum concentration of RAGE and RAGE mRNA expression in pancreatic tissue were ( 18.33 ± 2.99) ng/ml and 0.41 ±0.13 in the control group.The corresponding values increased at 6 h in ANP group,which were (30.31 ±5.03) ng/ml and 1.57 ±0.19,and they were significantly higher than those in the control group (P <0.05) ; they reached the peak value at 24 h[( 105.41 ±21.31 ) ng/ml and 4.23 ±0.73],which were significantly higher than those in other ANP groups ( P < 0.05 ) ; at 96 h they decreased to the lowest point [( 33.54 ± 6.96) ng/ml and 1.19 ± 0.19],which were still significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05 ).Conclusions The expression levels of RAGE in pancreatic tissues and serum level of RAGE increase within 36 h of ANP onset,then decrease gradually,but they are always higher than normal values.
