Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of exogenous leptin on liver injury in severe acute pancreatitis rat .Methods Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into the sham operation group ,SAP group and leptin intervention group . The SAP rat models was established by retrograde injection of 3 .5% sodium taurocholate into the biliopancreatic duct .The leptin intervention group was intraperitoneally injected with leptin 20 μg/kg .The rats in each group were sacrificed at 12 h after model‐ing .The pancreas and liver tissues were taken for HE staining and detecting the nuclear factor kappa B (NF‐κB) .The cell apoptosis in situ labeling method was adopted for detecting the liver tissue cell apoptosis index .ALT ,AST and AMY were detected . Results Compared with the sham operation group ,the liver tissue pathology score in SAP group and leptin intervention group were significantly increased(P<0 .05) .The liver tissue pathology scores in the leptin intervention group were lower than those in the SAP group(P<0 .05) .The NF‐κB expression of liver tissue in the SAP group and leptin intervention group was obviously increased compared with the sham operation group ,the expression in the leptin intervention group was decreased compared with the SAP group (P<0 .05) .The liver cell apoptosis index in the leptin intervention group and SAP group was significantly higher than that in the sham operation group (P<0 .05) ,and which leptin intervention group was decreased compared with the SAP group (P<0 .05) . The results of ALT ,AST and AMY in the SAP group and leptin intervention group were increased significantly compared with the sham operation group(P<0 .05) ,while which in the leptin intervention group was decreased compared with the SAP group (P<0 .05) .Conclusion The exogenous leptin may play the protective effect on SAP complicating liver damage by lowering the liver tis‐sue NF‐κB expression and reducing the liver cell apoptosis index .
