Abstract:
Objective To investigate the inhibitory effect of ginkgolide B (BN52021) on severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) via detecting the antagonistic effect of BN52021 on platelet-activating factor (PAF). Methods One hundred and eighty Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group (n = 60), SAP group (n = 60) and BN52021 group (n =60) according to the random number table. The 3 groups were divided into 6 subgroups at different time points after operation (1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 6 h, 12 h, and 24 h). The changes of serum amylase in each group were monitored. The expression of platelet-activating factor receptor (PAFR) mRNA and protein was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot, and the pathological changes of pancreatic tissues were observed. All the data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA. Results Serum amylase level and pathological results showed that it was successful in preparing SAP model. The serum amylase levels at postoperative hour 3, 6 and 24 were (4185 ±148) U/L, (3785 ± 124) U/L and (1360 ± 161) U/L in BN52021 group, which were significantly lower than those in SAP group [(4799 ± 107) U/L, (4920 ± 140) U/L, (2283 ± 127) U/L)]. The pathological scores at postoperative hour 3, 6, 12 were 5.95±0. 19, 5.55±0.36, 6.72±0. 30 in BN52021 group, which were significantly lower than those in SAP group (8.85 ± 0.39, 9.15 ± 0.55, 10.10 ±0. 65). The mRNA and protein expression of PAFR were gradually increased at the early stage (0.49 ± 0.09-0.71 ± 0.14 vs 0. 43 ～ O. 06-1.69 ± 0.06), and reached peak at postoperative hour 3. The expression levels of PAFR mRNA and protein in BN52021 group and SAP group at postoperative hour 3 had statistical difference among the 3 groups (F = 4.58, 6.24, P < 0.05). Conclusions The expression of PAFR mRNA and protein in the pancreatic tissue of SAP rats is dynamically changing. PAFR plays an important role in the occurrence and progression of SAP. BN52021 can reduce the expression of serum amylase and improve the pancreatic pathological changes, but it has no effect on the expression of PAFR in pancreatic tissue.
