Description
Summary:Objective:To explore the characteristics of NF-κB activation in the progress of pancreatitis,the relationship with expression of TNF-α 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-κB activation.In the time intervals of 1.5, 3.0, 6.0, 12.0 hour, NF-κB activation was detected with flow cytometry (FCM) and the expression of TNF-α 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-κB activation in the pancreatitis group was higher than that in the control group (P
