Title: Advances in Experimental Models of Chronic Pancreatitis
Abstract: Objective To discuss the methods of producing experimental models of chronic pancreatitis and their individual properties. Methods The recent literatures about experimental models of chronic pancreatitis were reviewed and analyzed. Methods of producing experimental models and their individual properties were summarized, and best models suitable for varied chronic pancreatitis were afforded. Results Diet, ligation of pancreatic duct, caerulein, dibutyltin dichloride (DBTC), arterial ligation, injecting microspheres into artery, and injection of pancreatic duct could induce different experimental models of chronic pancreatitis. Spontaneous chronic pancreatitis was induced by diet, chronic obstructive pancreatitis produced by ligation and injection of pancreatic duct, chronic relapsing pancreatitis evoked by caerulein, and chronic active pancreatitis made by arterial ligation and injecting microspheres into artery. Conclusion Different methods could induce models of chronic pancreatitis, which had their individual properties.
