Objective To investigate the effects of urinastatin on the production of inflammatory mediators and cytokines of acute pancreatitis(AP), and the effect of treating AP with urinastatin. Methods Serum levels of tumor necrotic factor ?(TNF ?), nitrogen oxide(NO), oxygen free radicals and amylase were determined in AP rats and patients with AP respectively. Effects of urinastatin treatment on the alleration of symptoms, signs and of pancreas in patients with AP were also examined. Results Urinastatin could apparently decrease the serum levels of TNF-?, oxygen free radicals and amylase in AP rats and the patients with AP, also alleviate the symptoms and signs of the patients with AP, and the effective rate of treating AP with urinastatin reached 90 percent. Conclusions Urinastatin, which can inhibit the production of inflammatory mediators and cytokines in AP, is an effective and cheap drug for AP.
