Inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 in experimental severe acute pancreatitis.
BACKGROUND The standard treatment for acute pancreatitis (AP) is still based on supportive care. The search for a new drug that could change the natural history of the disease is a continuing challenge for many researchers. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of a cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor on experimental AP in rats. METHODS The animals were divided into 2 groups: Group 1...

متن کاملDecreased expression of Toll-like receptor 2 and 4 on macrophages in experimental severe acute pancreatitis.
In severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), immunologic impairment in the early phase may be linked to subsequent infectious complications that are main contributor to the high mortality. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize microorganisms as the innate immune system, and are involved in host defense mechanism. TLR2 recognizes lipoteichoic acid (LTA) of gram-positive bacteria, and TLR4 recognizes lipop...

Patients were randomly assigned to receive standar...
