Cerulein-induced chronic pancreatitis in Swiss albino mice: An improved short-term model for pharmacological screening.

Abstract:

:There is a need for short-term, reliable and reproducible animal model of chronic pancreatitis (CP) in small animals like mice. This study was aimed to establish the 9 exposures of cerulein-induced CP in mice. Repeated intraperitoneal cerulein injections were performed at 6 consecutive doses (50 μg/kg)/day, 3 days a week for 3 weeks to induce chronic pancreatitis in Swiss albino mice. The severity of damage was assessed by biochemical assays and histopathology. The expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine and fibrotic proteins was assessed by IHC and western blotting. The cerulein treated mice showed significantly elevated plasma amylase (p < .0285) and lipase levels (p < .0022) and resulted in significantly increased pancreatic oxidative (p < .0022) and nitrosative (p < .0022) stress. The hydroxyproline levels were 3.06 fold increased in the cerulein treated mice. The expressions of fibrotic cytokine TGF-β1 by 1.8 folds and pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α by 2.3 fold, IL-6 by 2.2 fold and IL-1β by 3.7 fold were markedly increased in cerulein treated mice. The histological evaluations indicated increased inflammatory cells infiltration and deposition of collagen. Moreover, the expression of fibrotic markers such as α-SMA increased by 2.5 folds (p < .00014), collagen1a by 1.3 folds (p < .0258) and fibronectin by 3.5 folds (p < .00014) were significantly increased. Our study demonstrates the superiority of 9 exposures of cerulein-induced CP model in mice with the reduction of duration, cerulein exposure, more economical and mortality rate of mice over the available models. Therefore, our model may be suitable to evaluate the pharmacological effects of new drugs in chronic pancreatitis.
