Effect of BN52021 on NFκ-Bp65 expression in pancreatic tissues of rats with severe acute pancreatitis

摘要

AIM: To investigate dynamic changes and significance of expression of NF-κBp65 in pancreatic tissues of rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), as well as BN52021 effects. METHODS: Wistar male rats were randomly divided into negative control group (NC group, n = 60), SAP-model group (SAP group, n = 60), and BN52021-treated group (BN group, n = 60), and each of the above groups was respectively divided into 6 subgroups at different time points after operation (1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 6 h, 12 h, and 24 h) (n = 10). By RT-PCR and Western blot, NF-κBp65 mRNA and its protein expression in pancreatic tissues of rats were detected respectively. RESULTS: The expression of NF-κBp65 mRNA dynamically changed in both SAP groups and BN groups. The mRNA level was higher in SAP groups than NC groups at 2 h, 3 h, 12 h, and 24 h after operation (P < 0.05), higher in BN groups than NC groups at all time points (P < 0.05), and higher in BN groups than SAP group at 1 h (P < 0.05). The NF-κBp65 protein level was higher in SAP groups than NC groups at 1 h, 3 h, and 6 h (P < 0.01), and 2 h, 12 h, and 24 h (P < 0.05), higher in BN groups than NC groups at all time points (P < 0.05), and lower in BN groups than SAP groups at 1 h, 3 h, and 6 h (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The expression of NF-κBp65 in pancreatic tissues is dynamically changed and the changes play an important role in pathogenesis of SAP. BN52021 exerts therapeutic effects through reducing the expression level of NF-κBp65 protein in the early stage of SAP.
