Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Pancreas transplantation alone (PTA) is an effective therapy for diabetic patients who do not occur chronic complications. It's important to establish the stable PTA animal models to investigate immunologic tolerance or ischemic/reperfusion injury.OBJECTIVE: To establish the model of pancreas transplantation alone (PTA) with enteric drainage in rat.DESIGN: Grouping and controlled animal experiment SETTING: Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Xijing Hospital,Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA MATERIALS: Totally 90 SD male rats, with the body mass of 250-320 g,were chosen in this study. 58 rats were induced by intravenous administration of streptozotocin (STZ) at a dose of 65 mg/kg via penile vein and the rats whose fasting plasma glucose exceeded 19.4 mmol/L for more than 2weeks were selected, 22 rats was successful. Rats were randomly assigned to 2 groups: control group (10 healthy rats) and group PTA consisted of 22diabetic rats, which received PTA from 22 normal donors.METHODS: This experiment was conducted at the laboratory of Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Xijing Hospital, Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from January 1999 to July 2004. The blood vessels reconstruction of PTA were performed using end-to-side anastomosis between the donors' abdominal aorta segment (abdominal artery and splenic artery) and recipients' abdominal aorta, and end-to-end anastomosis between the donors' portal vein segment (splenic vein) and recipients'left renal vein (use a cuff). Pancreas exocrine drainage was made by pancreas intestine anastomosis (Roux-Y).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Body mass, food intake, water intake and fasting blood glucose were monitored 2 days before operation and 1,3,7,14 and 30 days after operation, and the failure causes were analyzed.RESULTS: 22 rats in the model group and 10 rats in the normal control the vein of the rats , very severe diabetic symptoms appeared in 22 rats:Body mass, food intake, fasting blood glucose was increased than that of cipients operation was (32.2±12.7) minutes and (63.4±15.9) minutes respectively. And the mean time of warm and cold ischemic time was 0minute and (48.6±18.3) minutes, respectively. 11 of the 22 cases (50%)died or lost their function of the endocrine within 1 month in Group PTA.The main complications were secondary pancreatitis and pancreas leakage after transplantation (7 cases, 31.8%). All successful recipients' blood glucose lowed on the 1st and recovered to be normal on the 3nd after transplantation (P ＜ 0.01), and their food intake, water intake and urine volume decreased and became stable 14 days later.CONCLUSION: This method can be used to establish relative stable animal model. Successful PTAs may improve the pancreatic endocrine function of the diabetic rats.
