本研究旨在探讨甲醛导致机体神经系统病变的具体机制。选用雄性Balb/c小鼠为研究对象,动态吸入甲醛方式染毒7天,每天8 h,甲醛浓度分别为0、0.5、3.0 mg/m3,同时设置一氧化氮合酶(nitric oxide synthase,NOS)拮抗剂(NG-monomethylL-arginine,L-NMMA)组,该组小鼠同时进行3.0 mg/m3甲醛染毒。染毒结束后,用试剂盒检测小鼠大脑皮层、海马和脑干中环磷酸腺苷(cyclic adenosine monophosphate,cAMP)、环磷酸鸟苷(cyclic guanine monophosphate,cGMP)、一氧化氮(nitric oxide,NO)含量和NOS活性的变化。结果显示,与对照组相比,小鼠大脑皮层和脑干中cAMP含量在0.5 mg/m3染毒组显著升高(均P0.05),但是在3.0 mg/m3染毒组显著降低(P0.05),海马中cAMP含量仅在3.0 mg/m3染毒组出现显著降低(P0.05);与对照组相比,L-NMMA拮抗组小鼠cGMP和NO含量分别在海马和大脑皮层中显著上升(均P0.01),而cAMP含量和NOS活性在不同脑区中无显著变化。与3.0 mg/m3染毒组相比,L-NMMA拮抗组不同脑区中cAMP含量均显著上升(均P0.05),NOS活性显著下降(P0.05或P0.01);大脑皮层和脑干中的cGMP含量以及脑干中的NO含量亦出现显著性变化(P0.05或P0.01)。以上结果提示,甲醛暴露的神经系统毒性作用与NO/cGMP信号转导通路和cAMP信号通路存在一定的关系。

Bisphenol A contamination in infant rats: molecular,structural, and physiological cardiovascular changes and the protective role of kefir

The effects of bisphenol A (BPA) contamination on the cardiovascular function still are not clear. Here, we evaluated the vascular effects of BPA and the protective actions of kefir in infant rats. Animals (25 days old) were treated with BPA (100 μg/Kg/day) for 60 days (BPA group), or administered kefir (0.3 mL/100 g) in addition to BPA (BPA kefir group), compared with non-treated rats (Control group).The vascular endothelial function was evaluated in aortic rings through the relaxation response to acetylcholine and specific blockers. The balance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) was assessed through flow cytometry in the vascular tissue. The BPA group developed high blood pressure (+10%) and the analysis of vascular reactivity showed an impaired ACh-induced relaxation (~80%). The further analysis by using NADPH, NOS and COX blockers revealed that the impaired vasorelaxation was due to increased ROS production (+12%), NO bioavailability (−12%) and increased vasoconstriction to prostanoids (+36%) compared with the Control group. Kefir treatment reverted those effects significantly. Analysis of the aortic cells showed increased •O₂⁻ production (1942±39 a.u.) and decreased NO bioavailability (1250±30 a.u.) compared with the Control group (1374±146 and 2777±25 a.u., P<.05) and kefir reverted these values (1298±57 and 2517±57 a.u.). Contamination by BPA in this model caused hypertension and endothelial dysfunction and it was accompanied by a vascular ROS/NO imbalance, damage of endothelial layer and pro-apoptotic effects. The novelty is that the treatment using probiotic kefir was able to attenuate the progression the above BPA effects.     

Role of nitric oxide dependence on nitric oxide synthase-like activity in the water stress signaling of maize seedling

Nitric oxide (NO) has been known as an important signal in plant antioxidative defense but its production and roles in water stress are less known. The present study investigated whether NO dependence on a NO synthase-lika (NOS) activity is involved in the signaling of drought-induced protective responses in maize seedlings. NOS activity, rate of NO release and drought responses were analyzed when NO donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP), NO scavenger c-PTIO (2-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramathylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide) and NOS inhibitor L-NAME (NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester) were applied to both detached maize leaves and whole plants. Both NOS activity and the rate of NO release increased substantially under dehydration stress. The high NOS activity induced by c-PTIO as NO scavenger and NO accumulation Inhibited by NOS inhibitor L-NAME In dehydration-treated maize seedlings Indicated that most NO production under water deficit stress may be generated from NOS-like activity. After dehydration stress for 3 h, detached maize leaves pretreated with NO donor SNP maintained more water content than that of control leaves pretreated with water. This result was consistent with the decrease in the transpiration rate of SNP-treated leaves subjected to drought treatment for 3 h. Membrane permeability, a cell injury index, was lower in SNP-trested maize leaves under dehydration stress for 4 h when compared with the control leaves. Also, superoxide dismutsse (SOD) activity of SNP combined drought treatment maize leaves was higher than that of drought treatment alone, indicating that exogenous NO treatment alleviated the water loss and oxidative damage of maize leaves under water deficit stress. When c-PTIO as a specific NO scavenger was applied, the effects of applied SNP were overridden. Treatment with L-NAME on leaves also led to higher membrane permeability, higher transpiration rate and lower SOD activities than those of control leaves, indicating that NOS-like activity was involved in the antioxidative defense under water stress. These results suggested that NO dependence on NOS-like activity serves as a signaling component in the induction of protective responses and is associated with drought tolerance in maize seedlings.

Mitochondrial function and nitric oxide metabolism are modified by enalapril treatment in rat kidney

The renal and cardiac benefits of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibition in hypertension exceed those attributable to blood pressure reduction, and seem to involve mitochondrial function changes. To investigate whether mitochondrial changes associated with RAS inhibition are related to changes in nitric oxide (NO) metabolism, four groups of male Wistar rats were treated during 2 wk with a RAS inhibitor, enalapril (10 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1); Enal), or a NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor, N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) (1 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1)), or both (Enal+L-NAME), or were untreated (control). Blood pressure and body weight were lower in Enal than in control. Electron transfer through complexes I to III and cytochrome oxidase activity were significantly lower, and uncoupling protein-2 content was significantly higher in kidney mitochondria isolated from Enal than in those from control. All of these changes were prevented by L-NAME cotreatment and were accompanied by a higher production/bioavailability of kidney NO. L-NAME abolished mitochondrial NOS activity but failed to inhibit extra-mitochondrial kidney NOS, underscoring the relevance of mitochondrial NO in those effects of enalapril that were suppressed by L-NAME cotreatment. In Enal, kidney mitochondria H(2)O(2) production rate and MnSOD activity were significantly lower than in control, and these effects were not prevented by L-NAME cotreatment. These findings may clarify the role of NO in the interactions between RAS and mitochondrial metabolism and can help to unravel the mechanisms involved in renal protection by RAS inhibitors.
