Abstract:
Objective To observe the protective effect of rhubarb Xuanming powder on systemic inflammation and intestinal injury in rats with acute pancreatitis(SAP),as well as its effect on lncRNA/miRNA/NF-κB pathway,so as to explore the therapeutic mechanism of rhubarb Xuanming powder on acute pancreatitis.Methods 60 male SD rats were divided into medication group(n=20),model group(n=20)and sham surgery group(n=20).Both of the medication group and the model group rats established SAP rat models by retrograde injection of sodium taurocholate solution into the biliopancreatic duct,while the sham surgery group only underwent biliary and pancreatic duct separation without puncture.In addition,from 1 hour after the modeling operation,the three groups of rats were gavaged once every 12 hours for 6 consecutive times.The medication group was gavaged with Dahuang Xuanming Powder Granule(1ml/100g),while the model group and sham operation group were gavaged with equal volume physiological saline.12 hours after the last gavage,disease activity index(DAI)was evaluated in all groups of rats;Abdominal aortic blood was extracted for detection of serum amylase,lipase,D-lactate,diamine oxidase(DAO),endotoxin,and inflammatory factors(IL-6,TNF)-αlevel;And pancreatic tissue and colonic mucosal tissue were taken for HE staining observation to determine the pancreatic pathological score and colonic mucosal tissue Chiu score,and transcription and protein expression of lncRNA DGCR9/MiR-342-5p/Akt/NF-κB pathway related factors were measured using RT-PCR and Western blot methods respectively.Results The comparison of DAI,pancreatic pathology score,and colonic mucosal tissue Chiu score among the three groups showed that the model group＞medication group＞sham surgery group(P＜0.05).Comparison of serum amylase,lipase,D-lactate,DAO,endotoxin,IL-6,TNF-α level of three groups showed that the model group＞medication group＞sham surgery group(P＜0.05).Comparison of the transcriptional expression levels of lncRNA DGCR9 and Akt among three groups showed that model group＜medication＜sham surgery group(P＜0.05);Three sets of Comparison of the transcriptional expression level of MiR-342-5p,NF-κBp65 among three groups showed that the model group＞medication group＞sham surgery group(P＜0.05).Comparison of protein expression levels of p-Akt among three groups showed that model group＜medication group＜sham surgery group(P＜0.05);Comparison of protein expression levels of NF-κB p65 among three groups showed that model group＞medication group＞sham surgery group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Rhubarb Xuanming powder can alleviate pancreatic pathological damage and colonic mucosal damage in rats with acute pancreatitis,and its mechanism may be related to the regulation of the lncRNA DGCR9/MiR-342-5p/Akt/NF-κB pathway and inhibition of inflammatory responses.
