Suppressing progress of pancreatitis through selective inhibition of NF-κB activation by using NAC

OBJECTIVE: To explore the characteristics of NF-KappaB activation in the progress of pancreatitis, the relationship with expression of TNF-alpha in the inflammatory reaction, and prevent the exacerbation of pancreatitis by using NAC. METHOD: Forty-eight rats were divided into three groups: therapy (group C), pancreatitis (group B) and control (group A). NAC served as the inhibitor of NF-KappaB activation. In the time intervals of 1.5, 3.0, 6.0, 12.0 hour, NF-KappaB activation was detected with flow cytometry (FCM) and the expression of TNF-alpha mRNA and protein with in situ hybridization (ISH) and enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay (ELISA) respectively. Meanwhile, the level of lipase and amylase in the serum was assayed and the pathological change was evaluated. RESULT: NF-KappaB activation in the pancreatitis group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.01), peaked at 3 hours, and was depressed by the inhibitor of NF-KappaB, NAC. The expression of TNF-alpha as well as the level of lipase and amylase in the serum also rose synchronously with activation of NF-KappaB. In contrast to group A, it was significantly different (P<0.01) in group B. After using NAC in group C, all of these values were decreased and the inflammatory reaction in the pancreas abated evidently. The pathology changes of the pancreas were shown to be alleviated in group C. CONCLUSION: First, NF-KappaB activity is intensively initiated in the course of pancreatitis and shown to have closely relationship with the release of cytokines. Second, use of NAC markedly depressed NF-KappaB activation. TNF-alpha expression is down regulated by cytokines. It is suggested that NAC probably acts as a useful agent for treatment of pancreatitis by indirectly inhibiting activation of NF-KappaB.

原生质体膜的发育特征

通过对黑麦(Secale Cerenle.L.)、向日葵(Helianthus Annuus.L)幼苗叶片的分段取材,利用扫描电镜技术研究了植物叶肉原生质体质膜的发育特征。我们发现(从叶片基部开始到叶尖)双子叶、单子叶植物原生质体的质膜发育具有相似的规律性。原生质体幼龄时,质膜表面出现了各种突起组成的球状“微区”,随着细胞的成熟,质膜表面逐渐变得多皱,进而光滑,其方式在单、双子叶植物略有不同。本文详细地描述了质膜的形态发育特征,同时讨论了这些特征与叶肉原生质体其它特征的关系。
