Abstract:
Objective To establish an animal model of pancreatic juice reflux esophagitis, and compare the roles of single pancreatic juice with pancreatic juice plus bile acids reflux in the pathogenesis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Methods Fifty SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups, group A: gastrectomy and end- to- side esophagojejunostomy (pancreatic juice and bile combination group, n=20); group B, gastrectomy and end-to-side esophagojejunostomy and bile-duct-jejunostomy (single pancreatic juice group, n = 20 ); group C: simple laparotomy ( n = 10). The rats were sacrificed 1, 2, 4 weeks after operation, and the change of weight of the rats and esophageal morphology was observed. Results Four rats in combination group died during or after operation, and the success rate of the model was 80%, 6 rats in single pancreatic juice group died, and the success rateof the model was 70%, both group A and B rats lost more weight significantly than that in control group, and the weight gradually increased 2 weeks later, but it was still lower than that in control group [(218 ±21), (216 ±20)g vs. (286 ±28)g, P＜0.05]. Reflux esophagitis of different degree was present in both groups, which was more severe in the lower part of esophagus, and severity increased with time. The main histologic changes were inflammation, erosion, ulcer and epithelial cell hyperplasia and metaplasia. The severity of esophagitis was not significantly different between group A and group B. Conclusions The models of single pancreatic juice reflux esophagitis can be successfully made. It establishes the foundation for experimental research of pancreatic juice induced esophageal mucosa injury.
