|
To investigate the difference in acute pancreatitis experimentally induced by common bile-pancreatic duct (CBPD) ligation and caerulein iv infusion, we measured amylase activity, pancreatic edema and phospholipase A_2 activity in pancreatic tissue and serum. In acute pancreatitis induced by CBPD ligation and caerulein infusion, tissue edema and tissue phospholipase A_2 activity significantly increased as compared with normal group. Also experimental acute pancreatitis significantly increased the levels of serum protein, serum amylase activity and serum phospholipase A_2 activity. In the comparison of two experimental models, the symptom of acute pancreatitis induced by CBPD ligation was more severe than that induced by caerulein infusion. These results indicate that the increase of phospholipase A_2 activity in pancreatic tissue and serum may be one of the parameters for the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis.
