Experimental study of low molecular weight heparin inducing acinar cell apoptosis in severe acute pancreatitis / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the mechanism of LMWH therapy for SAP.Methods 48 wistar rats were random divided into 3 groups,sham group(S group),severe acute pancreatitis group(SAP group)and LMWH therapy group(H group).Serum amylase,IL-6,acinar cell apoptosis and the activity of NF-κB were detected and compared.Results The expression of amylase and IL-6 in SAP group was significantly higher than that in H group(P＜0.01).The apoptosis index of acinar cell in SAP group wag significantly lower than that in H group(P＜0.01),while the activity of NF-κB in SAP groupwas stronger than that in H group.Conclusions LMWH therapy may ameliorate SAP by inducing acinar cell apoptosis through suppressing the activity of NF-κB.
