Different Changes in High‐Energy Phosphates in Alcoholic Acute Pancreatitis and Taurocholate Acute Pancreatitis in Rats Using NMR Spectroscopy at 2.0 T

We studied the pancreatic high-energy phosphates in two models of acute pancreatitis using 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in rats for the first time in vivo. Alcoholic pancreatitis was induced by acute ethanol intoxication and an obstruction-hyperstimulation mechanism. Taurocholate pancreatitis was generated by intraparenchymal administration of 1 ml of 1–10% taurocholate-Na+. In addition to the obligate control groups, a simple ischemia experiment was performed. The high-energy phosphates were monitored by 31P NMR spectroscopy at 2.0 T. Additionally, by means of a scoring system, the quality and quantity of pathomorphologic parameters were quantified after 24 h. 31P spectra acquired after injection of taurocholate showed an increase in inorganic phosphate with a concomitant decrease in ATP levels, similar to pancreatic ischemia. This irreversible decrease was accompanied histologically by severe pancreatic hemorrhage. After induction of alcoholic acute pancreatitis a reversible decrease in ATP was occasionally seen. Even when alcoholic pancreatitis had been fully established at 24 h, the 31P NMR spectrum was normal in all animals. In conclusion, depletion of high-energy phosphates seems to occur as a result of pancreatic cell death rather than being a cause of pancreatic necrosis. For the first time we applied in vivo NMR in the rat pancreas to study the time course in acute pancreatitis.
