The diagnosis value of E-cadherin in acute pancreatitis of rat / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the diagnosis value and expression of E‐cadherin in the acute pancreatitis .Methods Twenth‐four male SD rats were randomly divided into control group ,mild acute pancreatitis (MAP) group and severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) group ,8 case in each groups .The animal model was established by intraperitoneal injection of L‐arginine .After 24 hours ,the serum levels of amylase and the expression change of variation E‐cadherin were tested .The pancreas tissue was taken for his‐topathological score under microscope .The expression of E‐cadherin at protein level in pancreatic tissue was detected by Western Blot .Results The histological scores of pancreas and serum amylase were significantly higher in the MAP and SAP groups than those in control group (P<0 .05) ,and difference between SAP group and MAP group was also very significant(P<0 .05) .The re‐sult of ELISA showed that the serum E‐cadherin in MAP group[(1 025 .50 ± 131 .33) pg/mL] and SAP group[(1 561 .75 ± 144 .82)pg/mL] were significantly higher than that in control group[(626 .50 ± 72 .12) pg/mL ,P<0 .05] ,and there was significant difference between MAP group and SAP group(P<0 .05) .The result of Western Blot was similar to the result of ELISA .Conclu‐sion E‐cadherin may have diagnosis value in the acute pancreatitis .
