【摘要】 目的 探讨抗氧化应激是否参与参附注射液预处理诱导的肾脏保护作用。 方法 健康成年雄性SD大鼠21只随机分为假手术对照组（Sham组）、肾脏缺血再灌注组（I/R组）和参附注射液组（SF组）；SF组给予参附注射液10 mL/kg腹腔注射，每日1次，连续给药7d。麻醉下行右肾切除后，用无损伤动脉夹钳夹左侧肾蒂60min，再灌注24 h，制备肾缺血再灌注损伤动物模型。比较各组SD大鼠再灌注24 h肾脏组织中超氧化物歧化酶（superonidedismutase，SOD）水平、过氧化氢酶（catalese，CAT）和丙二醛（malonicalaldehyed，MDA）含量。 结果 与Sham组相比，I/R和SF组肾脏组织SOD和CAT显著降低，而MDA明显升高（Plt;0.05）；与I/R组比，参附注射液能明显增加SOD和CAT水平（Plt;0.05），降低MDA含量（Plt;0.05）。 结论 参附注射液预处理可增强缺血再灌注损伤肾脏组织抗氧化应激，其表现为增强SOD和CAT的活力，减少MDA的生成。【Abstract】 Objective To explore the protective effect of Shenfu injection combined with antioxidant system on rats’ kidney after ischemia-reperfusion injury. Methods Twenty-one male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: sham operation group (Sham group), ischemia-reperfusion group (IR group), and shenfu injection treated group (SF group). The rats were anesthetized with valebarbitone. Bilateral kidneys were exposed through midline incision. The right kidney underwent the nephrectomy and left renal pedicels were occluded for 60 minutes with a traumatic mini-clamp and then unclamped for 24 hours. Animals in SF group received Shenfu injection (10 mL/kg) through intraperitoneal injection every day for 7 days. About 24 hours after reperfusion, superoxide dismutase (SOD), CAT and malonical aldehyde (MDA) were measured. Results The levels of MDA were lower in SF group than those in IR group (Plt;0.05). The level of SOD and CAT in SF group increased more significantly than which did in IR group (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Our finding suggests that antioxidant system in SF group works more efficiently than IR group to overcome oxidative stress in renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.
【Abstract】Objective To investigate the expressions of TNF-α and superoxide dismutase (SOD) mRNA in myocardium of rats with obstructive jaundice (OJ). Methods The expressions of TNF-α and SOD mRNA were semi-quantitatively analyzed after amplification of cDNA in myocardium of the rats with OJ by RTPCR. Results The expression of TNF-α mRNA increased and that of SOD mRNA decreased in the myocardium of rats with OJ. The level of plasm TNF-α increased and SOD synthesis in myocardium decreased. Conclusion The injury of myocardium in OJ is correlated with increasing expression of TNF-α mRNA and decreasing expression of SOD mRNA.
Through dog models of common bile duct obstruction (BDO), the contents of liver superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde(MDA) were measured 2,3,4 and 5 weeks after BDO. Results indicated that the hepatic MDA content was increased 2 weeks after BDO as compared with control group (Ｐ＜0.01), the hepatic SOD content was decreased 3 weeks after BDO (Ｐ＜0.05). When bile duct obstructing, these changed were more serious. The results suggest that liver has little ability to eliminate the superoxide free radicals after BDO, whereas the lipid peroxidation products increase. It may be one of the mechanisms of liver damage after BDO.
Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy and spin trapping agent PBN were applied to measure directly the changes of oxygen free redicals (OFR) in gastric mucosa of rats with portal hypertension (PHT) injured by shockreperfusion, and treated with superoxide dismutase (SOD), radix salviae miltiorrhizae (RSM), with concomitant monitoring activity of SOD and pathology of gastric mucosa. Results showed that the amount of OFR increased markedly in gastric mucosa of PHT rats during the shock-reperfusion. The pathological changes were in accordance with alteration of the amount of OFR and the activity of SOD. Gastric mucosa in PHT was more susceptible to shock-reperfusion insult than normal controls. The anti-oxidant SOD, RSM used at early stage exerted mild gastric mucosal insult through different mechanisms.
Objective To explore the potential protective effect in vivo of Edaravone, a free radical scavenger on model of acute lung injury in rats with sepsis. Methods Twenty-four male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups, ie. a control group( NS group) , a model group( LPS group) , a Edaravone treatment group( ED group) . ALI was induced by injecting LPS intravenously( 10 mg/ kg) in the LPS group and the ED group. Meanwhile the ED group was intravenously injected with Edaravone( 3 mg/ kg) . The NS group was injected with normal saline as control. The lung tissue samples were collected at 6 h after intravenous injection. The wet / dry ( W/D) weight ratio of lung tissue was measured. The levels of myeloperoxidase ( MPO) , malondialdehyde ( MDA ) and superoxide dismutase ( SOD) in lung tissue homogenate were assayed. The pathological changes and expression of nuclear factor-kappa B( NF-κB) in lung tissue were also studied. Results Compared with the NS group, The W/D, pathological scores, NF-κB expression, MPO and MDA levels in the LPS group were significantly higher( all P lt; 0. 01) , and the level of SOD was apparently lower( P lt; 0. 01) . The W/D, pathological scores, NF-κB expression, MPO and MDA levels in the ED group were significantly lower than those in the LPS group( all P lt; 0. 01) and higher than those in the NS group( all P lt; 0. 01) . And the level of SOD in lung tissue of the ED group was higher than that in the LPS group and lower than that in the NS group ( P lt; 0. 01) . Conclusions Edaravone has protective effect on ALI rat model. The mechanismmay be related to its ability of clearing the reactive oxygen species, inhibiting the activation of the signal pathway of NF-κB and inflammatory cascade.
Objective To investigate the effects of ecdysterone on the survival of the dorsal random-pattern skin flap with large length-to-width ratio in rats and its possible mechanisms. Methods Twenty-four healthy adult SD rats (male and/or female) weighing 200-250 g were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group (n=12 per group).A caudally based dorsal random pattern skin flap, measuring 8 cm × 2 cm, was symmetrically raised. Ecdysterone (5 mg/kg) and normal sal ine (5 mg/kg) were injected into the abdominal cavity of rats in the experimental group and the control group at 10 minutes before operation and from the first to the fifth day after operation, respectively. The general condition of the rats was observed after operation. At 7 days after operation, the survival rate of the flap was detected, the superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and the malonyldialdehyde (MDA) level were tested, HE and immunohistochemistry staining observation of the flap were performed. VIII factor dried microvessels in the middle part of the flap (4 cm far away from pedicle) were counted. Results All the rats survived until the end of the experiment. At 7 days after operation, the survival rate of the flap was 62.323% ± 7.046% in the experimental group and 47.753% ± 2.952% in the control group (P lt; 0.001); SOD activity was (54.560 ± 4.535) U/mgprot in the experimental group and (23.962 ± 3.985) U/mgprot in the control group (P lt; 0.001); MDA level was (8.445 ± 0.992) nmol/mgprot in the experimental group and (14.983 ± 0.929) nmol/mgprot in the control group (P lt; 0.001). Histology observation: compared with the control group, the inflammatory cells infiltration was less and the hyperplasia of fibers was more obvious in the experimental group. The microvessel counting in the middle part of the flap was 17.817 ± 2.420 in the experimental group and 8.967 ± 2.000 in the control group (P lt; 0.001). Conclusion Perioperative intraperitoneal injection of ecdysterone can promote the survival of the random-pattern skin flaps with large length-to-width ratio. Its mechanism may be related to its effects of improving SOD activity, decreasing l ipid peroxidation, and promoting angiogenesis of skin flaps.
To study the variations of l ipid peroxidation products and copper, zinc-superoxide dismutase(CuZn-SOD) in pathological scars (hypertrophic scars and keloids). Methods The specimens were gained from patients of voluntary contributions from May 2005 to August 2005. The tissues of hypertrophic scar (10 cases, aged 16-35 years, the mean course of disease was 2.2 years), keloid (10 cases, aged 17-32 years, the mean course of disease was 8 months) and normal skin (8 cases, aged 16-34 years) were obtained. The content of malonaldehyde (MDA)and CuZn-SOD activity were detected by spectrophotometric method. The expression of CuZn-SOD was evaluated by immunohistochemistry technique. Results The contents of MDA and CuZn-SOD activity were significantly higher in hypertrophic scars[MDA (1.139 0 ± 0.106 7)nmoL/mg prot, CuZn-SOD (31.65 ± 2.21)U/mg prot, (P lt; 0.05)]and keloids[MDA (1.190 0 ± 0.074 8)nmoL/ mg prot, CuZn-SOD (34.36 ± 5.01)U/mg prot (P lt; 0.05)] than those of normal skin tissues [MDA (0.821 3 ± 0.086 4)nmoL/mg prot, CuZn-SOD (20.60 ± 5.56)U/mg prot]. Immunohistochemical studies indicated that the brown particles were CuZn-SOD positive signals, which mainly located cytoplasm in normal skin tissues, hypertrophic scars as well as keloids epidermal keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts. CuZn-SOD expression evaluation in hypertrophic scars (4.14 ± 0.90, P lt; 0.05) and keloids epidermal keratinocytes (4.43 ± 0.79, P lt; 0.05) markedly increased when compared with normal skin tissues (2.20 ± 0.45). The expression of CuZn-SODin hypertrophic scars (4.00 ± 0.82, P lt; 0.05) and keloids dermal fibroblasts (4.43 ± 0.53, P lt; 0.05) were significantly higher than that of normal skin tissues (1.60 ± 0.89). There were no differences in the content of MDA, CuZn-SOD activity and expression evaluation between hypertrophic scars and keloids (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion In pathological scars, the contents of MDA and CuZn-SOD activity increase and the expressions of CuZn-SOD are enlarged.
Objective To investigate the effects of glutathione (GSH) on survival of the random skin flap in rats and the probable mechanism that contribute to this effect. Methods Twenty SD rats with 200-250 g in weight, were randomly divided into the experimental group and control group(n=10). Random flap of 8 cm×2 cm in size was made on the back of each rat with the pedicel on the angular of the scapular. GSH(250 mg/kg) and NS of the same dose were injected into the abdominal cavity of rats in the experimental groupand the control group immediately after the operative, 1st and 2nd days respectively. The rats were killed on the 7th day after the operation. The tissue pathology, the survival rate of the flap, the superoxide dismutase(SOD) activity and malonyldialdehyde (MDA) level were compared between two groups. Results The mean survival rate of the flap on the 7th day in the experimental group（56.77%±10.67%） was higher than that in the control group(40.16%±7.12%)(Plt;0.05).SOD activity in experimental group （306.06±84.87 U/mgprot）was higher than that in the control group （224.79±27.12 U/mgprot）, while MDA level （3.835±0.457 nmol/mgprot）was lower than that in the control group (6.127±0.837 nmol/mgprot)(Plt;0.05). Histological observation showed that the neutrophil infiltration was less in experimental group than that in the control group; that the experimental group was surperior to the control group in angiogenesis, fibroblasts, fair cells and cuaneous gland. Conclusion The intraperitoneal use of GSH may promote the survival rate of the random flaps and the possible mechanism for improvement may lies in that the GSH can reduce the level of oxygen free radical and lipidperoxidation,and lessen neutrophil infiltration.
Perfusion of free flaps from groin of rabbits, after 12 hours of complete ischemia, with superoxide dismutase (SOD), an oxygen free radical scavenger, would significantly increase the survival rate of these flaps from 18.75% to 75% in the control group. Tissue levels of SOD and malonydialdehyde (MDA, an end product of lipoperoxidation) were measured before ischemia, after ischemia but before reperfusion, and 60 minites after reperfusion. In untreated flap, after 12 hours- ischemia, the SOD content of skin decreased significantly as compared with the SOD content before ischemia, and reperfusion further decreased SOD activity, while the concentration of MDA increased after ischemia and further increased after reperfusion. In the treated flaps, the concentration of SOD was not decrease and MADnot increased after reperfusion. There was a negative correlation between the values of SOD and MDA. These findings suggested that free oxygen radicals playedan important role in the free flap ischemia reperfusion injury. SOD could increase the survival of ischemic free-flaps by reducing lipoperoxidation. The results had significant clinical implications with regard to organ preservation and transplantation.
