Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a common serious stirring disease of the pancreas characterized by strict abdominal twinge that lasts for days to weeks. Rats were injected with high dose of the amino acid L-arginine (500 mg/kg B.W.). The study has been done to induce acute pancreatitis (AP) by L-Arginine (Arg) and to investigate the effect of AP on body weight, body weight gain, serum amylase, lipase, oxidative stress and proinflammatory cytokine parameters. In addition, some histopathological changes in pancreas and intestine were examination in male rats. Serum amylase, lipase, IL-6, and TNF-α levels, and MDA levels significantly increased in rats with L-Arginine induced AP. However, the boy weight and body weight gain, serum GPx, SOD and CAT activity significantly reduced. In addition, some histological changes in pancreas and intestine were identified, reversed and improved with ALA treatment.
