To prepare the experimental model, the retrograde injection of 5% sodiumtaurocholate into the pancreatic duct was used for inducing ANP. Radioactive tracing by L -3H-phenylalanineand autoradiography were performed for scoring the differences of changes of amino acid uptake, enzyme-proteinsynthesis and output from acinar cells in rats between both groups. Results No changes were observed in aminoacid uptake and enzyme -protein synthesis in rats with dotted and haemorrhagic necrotizing foci as compared withcontrol group. However, accumulated zymogen granules in the interstitial of acinar cells were seen in theexperimental group. Conclusion It indicates that in experimental ANP rats, the functions of acinar cells in bothamino acid uptake and protein synthesis were essentially normal, but the pathway of enzyme output was affectedinto ectopic secretion through the bottom or lateral cellular membrane of pancreatic acinar cell.展开更多
