Neutrophil depletion-but not prevention of Kupffer cell activation-decreases the severity of cerulein-induced acute pancreatitis

Figure 2 Serum amylase concentration (UI/L), pancreatic water content (% wet weight), and pancretic necrosis (%) in mice injected with cerulein and saline (CER), cerulein and antineutrophil serum (CER + ANS), cerulein and gadolinium chloride (CER + GdCl3), CER + ANS + GdCl3. n ≥ 5 in each group. Kruskall Wallis analysis with Dunn posthoc test found a significant difference between CER and CER + ANS, CER + GdCl3, and CER + ANS + GdCl3 (amylase concentrations) and CER and CER + ANS or CER + ANS + GdCl3 mice (pancreatic water content and pancreatic necrosis).
