Objective To investigate the expression of aquaporin-3 (AQP3) in tongue tissues of rats with experimental severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and regulating effects of emodin. Methods Rat models with SAP were established by injecting 5% sodium taurocholate retrogradely into gallbladder and pancreas. SD male rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group, model group, and emodin group. After model establishment, rats in the emodin group received gavage with emodin 20 mg/kg each day, while rats in the model group and sham-operation group received gavage with normal saline. The mental state, thick greasy tongue fur and mortality of rats were observed every day after model establishment, and 5 days later, protein and genetic expression of AQP3 were detected by Western blot and RT-PCR. Results Compared with the model group, the mortality and the thick greasy tongue fur significantly decreased, the protein and genetic expression of AQP3 significantly decreased in the emodin group (P<0.05). On the 5th day, 11 rats in the model group survived, and 5 rats had thick greasy tongue fur. Compared with the sham-operation group, the protein and genetic expression of AQP3 in the model group were higher (P<0.05). Conclusion Emodin can improve the severity of SAP and decrease the incidence of thick greasy tongue fur significantly by reducing the protein and genetic expression of AQP3.

Objective To investigate the high mobility group box chromosomal protein-1 (HMGB1) levels in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP); and to study the relationship between the serum level of HMGB1 and the severity of AP. Methods The patients' serum HMGB1 concentrations were determined right after admission, 24, 48 hour after admission. The levels of HMGB1 were measured by ELASA kit and its relationship with the severity of AP was analyzed. 20 healthy adults were treated as the control group. Results At the time of admission, and 24, 48 hours after admission, the serum HMGB1 levels in AP patients were (8.05 + 1.60 ), ( 8.04 ± 1.39 ), ( 8.25 ± 1.56) ng/ml, respectively, which were significantly higher than that in the healthy control [ ( 2.20 + 0.57 ) ng/ml, P ＜ 0. 01]. There were 35 patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and 27 patients with mild acute pancreatitis (MAP). The HMBG1 levels in patients with SAP were (7.99 + 1.69) ,(8.12 ± 1.40), (8.13 ± 1.34) ng/ml, and they were (8.12 + 1.52), (7.92 +1.40), (8.39 ± 1.81 )ng/ml in patients with MAP, and the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant. Conclusions The serum HMGB1 level in AP patients was significantly higher than that in healthy controls, but it was not related with the severity of AP.
