Abstract
Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of propofol on acute necrotizing pancreatitis (SAP) in rats.Methods 54 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into three groups with 18 rats in each group:sham-operation group,ANP group,propofol-treatod group.After ANP models were induced,propofol(10 mg·kg~(-1)· h~(-1)) were injected by dorsal vein of penis in the propofoltreated group.The rats in all groups were sacrificed at 3,6,12 hours after induction of the model.The serum amylase,lipase,nitric oxide (NO),TNF-a,superoxide dismutase (SOD),IL-6 were detected;the histopathological score of pancreatic tissue were evaluated.Results At 6 h,the levels of serum amylase in sham-operation group,ANP group,propofol-treatod group were(1743± 370) U/L,(7745± 1030) U/L and (5529± 874) U/L;the levels of serum lipase were(274.9± 36.1)U/L,(1672± 262)U/L and(1219± 207 )U/L;the levels of serum TNF-a were (1.110± 0.276)mg/L,(3.191± 0.279)mg/L and (2.361±0.281 )mg/L;the levels of serum IL-6 were (102.6±28.5)ng/L,(334.1±34.0)ng/L and (268.6±29.8)ng/L;the levels of serum NO were (42.2±18.1)μmol/L,(120.7±22.3)μmol/L and(73.6±19.3)μmol/L;the levels of serum SOD were(120.6± 20.1)U/ml,(54.1± 15.3)U/ml and(85.7± 17,1)U/ml;the histopathological scores were 0.333± 0.408,4.417± 0.665 and 3.500±0.707.The serum levels of amylase,lipase,NO,TNF-a,IL-6 and the histopathological score of pancreas in ANP group were significantly higher than those in sham-operation group group(P<0.05 ),while the serum levels of SOD were significantly lower(P<0.05).The serum levels of amylase,lipase,NO,TNF-a,IL-6 and the histopathological score of pancreas in propofol-treated group were significantly lower than those in the ANP group(P<0.05),while the serum levels of SOD were significantly higher(P<0.05).Conclusions Propofol could decrease the levels of serum amylase and lipase,reduce pancreatic tissue damage,and had therapeutic effects on ANP in rats.
