结扎大鼠胸导管诱发胰组织结构的形态学变化

目的 观察胰淋巴淤滞动物模型胰组织结构变化和胰淀肽沉积情况,探讨淋巴淤滞对胰组织细微和超微结构的影响. 方法 10月龄大鼠20只,采用腹部结扎大鼠胸导管,建立胰淋巴淤滞动物模型,造模后6个月取材,部分胰组织经石蜡包埋切片,行HE和刚果红染色;部分经冷冻切片,行免疫组织化学染色和光镜观察;部分标本进行透射电镜样品制备和观察. 结果 HE和刚果红染色切片光镜观察显示,胰腺小叶间隙增宽,呈明显的结缔组织增生、脂肪堆积;胰岛淡染或着朱红色,组织间隙明显增宽.免疫组织化学染色切片光镜观察显示,在胰岛及其周围,呈现胰淀肽强阳性棕褐色着色反应.超薄切片透射电镜观察显示,胰腺小叶间隙增宽,可见血管和扩大的淋巴管;胰岛细胞间隙增宽,细胞间隙内可见大量脂滴样物质和胶原原纤维样结构.结论 胸导管结扎可导致胰淋巴引流障碍,引起胰淋巴管扩张,结缔组织间隙增宽,脂肪堆积,胰岛细胞间隙扩大,胰淀肽沉积等,这些结构变化可能影响胰岛的功能.

Morphological changes of rat pancreatic tissue induced by ligation of thoracic duct

Objective To observe the morphological changes of pancreatic tissue of thoracic duct ligated rats in fine and ultrastructural levels, and to determine whether lymph block animal model can affect pancreatic islet amyloid polypeptide(PIAP)deposit in rat pancreas. Methods At the 6th month after the operation, some pancreatic tissue sections of 16-month-old experimental rats were embedded in paraffin wax and stained with HE and Congo red;immunohistochemical staining was performed on some frozen sections, which were then observed with light microscope;transmission electron microscope (TEM) specimen preparation and observation were performed on other samples. Results HE and Congo red stained sections showed that the pancreatic glandular lobule space was widened, with significant connective tissue hyperplasia, and fat accumulation when the islet was stained indistinctly or vermeil and tissue space was broadened. The sections with immunohistochemical staining displayed the pancreatic islet as well as the tissues around it were stained into dark brown being positive with PIAP antigen. TEM observation showed the pancreatic glandular interlobule space was widened, while blood vessels and enlarged lymphatic vessels were visible;within widened pancreatic islet interstitial space, a great quantity of lipid droplets and some collagen fibril structures could be seen.Conclusion The ligation of thoracic duct can contribute to pancreatic lymph draining block, lymphagiectasis, connective tissue space and interstitial space widening, fat accumulation, and PIAP deposit in rat pancreas. These structural changes may affect the function of pancreatic islets.
