More Information
  •   Objective   To explore the mechanism of early pancreatic exocrine function changes in severely scalded rats.   Methods   The experimental research methods was used. Eighty male Sprague-Dawley rats aged 7-8 weeks were divided into simple sham injury group ( n=8), sham injury+cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK8) group ( n=8), severe scald+CCK8 group ( n=32), and extremely severe scald+CCK8 group ( n=32) by the random number table, which were treated accordingly. Immediately after injury of rats in the 2 sham injury groups and 1, 2, 3, and 7 days after injury of rats in the 2 scald groups, the improved methods including pancreatic duct puncture and catheterization were used to dynamically collect the pancreatic-bile juice (PBJ) of rats. The PBJ secretory volume within 1 h was recorded, and the content of pancreatic lipase, α-amylase, and trypsin in PBJ was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the number of samples was 8. The femoral venous blood was collected, and the concentrations of pancreatic lipase and α-amylase in serum were detected by standard colorimetry to reflect their activity ( n=8). The pancreatic tissue was extracted, and the levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-6 in pancreatic tissue were detected by ELISA ( n=8), the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) in pancreatic tissue was detected by immunofluorescence method, and the histopathological changes in pancreatic tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining, the severity of pancreatic tissue injury in the 2 scald groups was evaluated by modified Schmidt method ( n=6), and the ultrastructure of acinar cells in pancreatic tissue was observed by transmission electron microscopy. Data were statistically analyzed with analysis of variance for factorial design, Tukey test, independent sample t test, and least significant difference test.   Results   Compared with the PBJ secretory volume (0.740±0.030) mL in the pancreatic tissue of rats in simple sham injury group within 1 h immediately after injury, the (0.823±0.033) mL in sham injury+CCK8 group was significantly increased ( t=4.92, P<0.05). Compared with that of rats in sham injury+CCK8 group immediately after injury, the PBJ secretory volume of rats within 1 h in severe scald+CCK8 group ((0.681±0.024), (0.608±0.056), (0.525±0.025), and (0.720±0.044) mL) and extremely severe scald+CCK8 group ((0.540±0.025), (0.406±0.021), (0.475±0.036), and (0.690±0.018) mL) was significantly decreased on 1, 2, 3, and 7 days after injury ( P<0.05). Compared with that in severe scald+CCK8 group, the PBJ secretory volume of rats within 1 h in extremely severe scald+CCK8 group was significantly decreased on 1 and 2 days after injury ( P<0.05). Compared with that of rats in simple sham injury group immediately after injury, the content of pancreatic lipase, α-amylase, and trypsin in PBJ of rats in sham injury+CCK8 group immediately after injury was significantly increased (with t values of 4.56, 3.30, and 4.99, respectively, P<0.05). Compared with that of rats in sham injury+CCK8 group immediately after injury, the content of pancreatic lipase and α-amylase in PBJ of rats in severe scald+CCK8 group and extremely severe scald+CCK8 group was significantly decreased on 1, 2, 3, and 7 days after injury ( P<0.05), the trypsin content in PBJ of rats in extremely severe scald+CCK8 group was significantly decreased on 2 days after injury ( P<0.05). Compared with that in severe scald+CCK8 group, the content of pancreatic lipase in PBJ of rats in extremely severe scald+CCK8 group was significantly decreased on 1, 2, and 3 days after injury ( P<0.05), and the content of α-amylase and trypsin in PBJ was significantly decreased on 1 and 2 days after injury ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the activities of pancreatic lipase and α-amylase in serum of rats among the 4 groups at various time points after injury ( P>0.05). Compared with that of rats in sham injury+CCK8 group immediately after injury, the levels of IL-1β in pancreatic tissue of rats in severe scald+CCK8 group on 1, 2, and 3 days after injury and in extremely severe scald+CCK8 group on 1, 2, 3, and 7 days after injury were significantly increased ( P<0.05), and the levels of IL-6 in pancreatic tissue of rats in severe scald+CCK8 group and extremely severe scald+CCK8 group were significantly increased on 1, 2, 3, and 7 days after injury ( P<0.05). Compared with that in severe scald+CCK8 group, the IL-1β level in pancreatic tissue of rats in extremely severe scald+CCK8 group was significantly increased on 2 and 3 days after injury ( P<0.05), and IL-6 level in pancreatic tissue was significantly increased on 2 days after injury ( P<0.05). The expression levels of HIF-1α in pancreatic tissue of rats in simple sham injury group and sham injury+CCK8 group immediately after injury were lower; and compared with that in sham injury+CCK8 group immediately after injury, the expression levels of HIF-1α in pancreatic tissue of rats in the 2 scald groups increased to a certain extent at different time points after injury, and the expression position was transited from the edge of the pancreatic tissue to the whole pancreas, the expression levels of HIF-1α in pancreatic tissue of rats in the 2 scald groups tended to be normal on 7 days after injury. Compared with that in simple sham injury group immediately after injury, the proportion of acinar cell cytoplasm in pancreatic tissue of rats in sham injury+CCK8 group was increased; and with the increase of time after injury, edema, hemorrhage, necrosis, and inflammatory infiltration appeared in pancreatic tissue of rats in the 2 scald groups. Compared with that in severe scald+CCK8 group, the scores of edema, inflammatory cell infiltration, bleeding, and necrosis in pancreatic tissue of rats in extremely severe scald+CCK8 group were increased to varying degrees at various time points after injury, and the scores of pancreatic tissue of rats in the 2 scald groups basically recovered to normal on 7 days after injury. Compared with that in simple sham injury group immediately after injury, the number of enzyme granules in acinar cells of pancreatic tissue of rats in sham injury+CCK8 group was increased, and with the increase of time after injury, the enzyme granules in acinar cells of rats in the 2 scald groups were gradually reduced basically.   Conclusions   The exocrine functions of pancreas, such as synthesis and secretion of pancreatic enzymes, are decreased in the early stage in severely scalded rats. And the greater the scalded area, the more significant the decline of pancreatic exocrine function. This change may be related to hypoxic injury and inflammation in pancreatic tissue after severe scald.
