Abstract:
Objective To explore the effects of rosiglitazone on pancreatic β cells in a rat model of severe acute pancreatitis(SAP).Methods 36 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham operation group(SO group),SAP group,and rosiglitazone pretreatment group(ROSI group).SAP model was induced by retrograde infusion of 5% sodium taurocholate into the biliopancreatic duct.SO and SAP group were injected 10% dimethyl sulfoxide partes aequales(DMSO) (0.2 ml/100 g)by femoral vein 30 mins piror to the surgery.ROSI group were injected rosiglitazone (6 mg/kg)instead of 10% DMSO.Rats were killed 12 h after surgery and the level of serum amylase was detected.Pancreas tissues were taken for pathological examination under light microscope and insulin in situ staining was done.The ultrastructure of β cells was observed with transmission electron microscope.Results Amylase level and pathologic score were increased significantly in SAP group than in SO group (P < 0.05).Compared with SAP group,amylase level and pathologic score reduced significantly for rats in ROSI group (P < 0.05).Compared with SAP group,the morphological structure of β cells in ROSI group was more completed and insulin in situ staining was darker observed by electronic microscopy.Conclusion ROSI exerts protective effect on morphology and endocrine function of pancreatic β cells in rats with severe acute pancreatitis.
