Fig. 2. Regulation of miR-155 affects the severity of cerulein-induced pancreatitis in vivo.

a AP was induced in BALB/c mice with cerulein (100 μg/kg × 10) after 3 weeks of transfection with AAV-9-miR-155 or AAV-9-miR-155 sponge. The mice were sacrificed under anesthesia 24 h after the last injection of cerulein. b Serum amylase (U/L) and serum lipase (U/L) activity (n = 8 per group, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01). ce H&E staining of pancreas tissue from each group showing different levels of tissue damage, including pancreatic edema, extravascular infiltration and acinar cell necrosis (×200). Immunohistochemical staining and quantification of MPO revealed inflammation in the pancreas (×200) (n = 8 per group, *P < 0.05). f IF staining for caspase-1 in the pancreas (×200)
