晶状体生化的研究:正常和亚硒酸钠诱发白内障大鼠晶状体中与谷胱甘肽代谢有关的三种酶活性的测定

测定了用亚硒酸钠诱发的大鼠白内障晶状体中谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)、谷胱甘肽还原酶(GSSG-R)和谷胱甘肽硫转移酶(GSH-S)的活性,并与正常晶休中这三种酶的活性作了比较。结果表明,核浊浑期晶状体中GSH-Px的活性比正常晶状体的高一倍,但在整个晶状体浑浊时降低,GSSG-R的活性变化与GSH-PX相似,这两种酶在代谢上是相关的。GSH-S的活性在核浑浊期不改变,但在完全浑浊后降低。     

AC1及AC3抗白内障形成中晶状体谷胱甘肽代谢相关酶活性的变化

观察了亚硒酸钠,AC1,AC3对大鼠晶状体中谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px),谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)及谷胱甘肽硫转移酶(GST)的影响。结果表明,亚硒酸钠组大鼠的晶状体尚未混浊前已出现GSH-Px活性增高及GR和GST的活性降低。GR活性下降随白内障进展而加重。AC1及AC3均可使亚硒酸钠所致的酶活性变化逆转,但对正常晶状体的酶活性没有影响。     

抗白内障药物滴眼对亚硒酸钠性白内障的预防作用

 观察了三种化合物(抗氧化剂与自由基清除剂)对大鼠亚硒酸钠性白内障的滴眼预防作用。实验分为正常对照组、亚硒酸钠组及滴眼预防组。亚硒酸钠组及滴眼预防组系给12─13日龄的大鼠皮下注射亚硒酸钠,首次剂量为6μmol/kg体重,间日一次,逐次递增1μmol/kg体重,连续六次。预防组则为大鼠开眼后同时滴眼抗氧化剂与自由基清除剂。结果表明,三种化合物通过滴眼均能有效的防止亚硒酸钠性白内障的发生,白内障的发生率从95.8％降低至15％～43.5％。同时测定了各组晶状体中谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)、谷胱甘肽还原酶(GSSG-R)及谷胱甘肽硫转移酶(GSH-S)的活性,结果表明,凡注射硒的大鼠晶状体中GSH-Px及GSSG-R的活性均比正常晶状体的高,接受抗氧化剂与自由基清除剂预防的大鼠晶状体中这两种酶的活性比未接受预防的大鼠晶状体中的低。单独注射硒的大鼠晶状体中GSH-S的活性比正常晶状体的高。接受预防的大鼠晶状体中此酶的活性和正常晶状体无差异,但比单独注射硒的大鼠晶状体中的低。     

亚硒酸钠诱发大鼠白内障晶状体前列腺素生物合成的研究

 用亚硒酸钠诱发大鼠产生白内障后,将晶状体微粒体与外源性花生四烯酸共同孵育,用放射免疫方法测定白内障晶状体前列腺素E_2(PGE_2)及前列腺素F_2α(PG-F_2α)的生物合成情况,并与正常晶状体进行了比较,结果表明大鼠晶状体具有酶促合成PGs的能力。正常晶状体及白内障晶状体合成PGE_2的能力分别为687.75±113.97及1095.00±79.39pg/100mg晶状体湿重/15分钟,PGE_2α则分别为51.45±36.72及158.83±115.94pg/100mg晶状体湿重/15分钟(平均数±S.D.)。这说明大鼠白内障晶状体合成PGs的能力明显增高,与正常晶状体相比有显著性差异(PGE_2P<0.001,PGF_2αP<0.02)。在前2次注射亚硒酸钠后,大鼠白内障晶状体PGs的合成能力逐渐高于正常晶状体,并随注射亚硒酸钠的次数增加和白内障晶状体混浊程度加重,PGs在晶状体内的含量增加。     

亚硒酸钠诱发的晶状体上皮细胞DNA损伤及修复

观察了亚硒酸钠（Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ３）在体外作用于大鼠晶状体上皮细胞（ＲＬＥ ｃｅｌｌｓ）而造成的ＤＮＡ单链断裂（ＳＳＢ）,并对其ＤＮＡ损伤、修复动力学做了初步研究。发现ＳＳＢ严重程度与亚硒酸钠的浓度呈线性相关,其ＳＳＢ重接修复约在３０￣６０ｍｉｎ内完成,还作了有关非程序ＤＮＡ合居（ＵＤＳ）的检测,发现与ＳＳＢ相比,ＵＤＳ发生迟且持续时间更长,提示Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ３可能在体外对大鼠晶状体上皮细胞除造成ＳＳＢ     

TNT在大鼠晶状体内的代谢及其对晶状体中抗氧化相关酶活性的影响

大鼠皮下注射ＴＮＴ,以ＨＰＬＣ分析其在晶状体内的代谢过程,并检测晶状体谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶、谷胱甘肽还原酶及超氧化物歧化酶的活性变化。发现在注射ＴＮＴ后２ｈ即可在晶状体内检测到为量极少的ＴＮＴ及其代谢产物,第１２ｈ一氨基二硝基甲苯含量达最高峰。鼠龄较小的大鼠晶状体内ＴＮＴ及其代谢产物高于鼠龄较大的大鼠．多剂量注射ＴＮＴ时大鼠晶状体内一氨基二硝基甲苯于第２天达到高峰,ＴＮＴ于第５天达饱和状态,第１８天一氨基二硝基甲苯含量与ＴＮＴ含量相近。谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶、谷胱甘肽还原酶及超氧化物歧化酶活性在注射ＴＮＴ的第２天均有不同程度的升高,在第５天和第１８天维持在低活性状态。实验表明ＴＮＴ在晶状体内是通过硝基还原而代谢的．ＴＮＴ进入晶状体后初期可诱发晶状体抗氧化相关酶活性的增高,后期则导致晶状体抗氧化相关酶活性的降低。

Comparative effects of selenite and selenite on the glutathione-related enzymes activity in pig blood platelets

The effects of inorganic selenium (Se) compounds (sodium selenite and selenate) on the activities of glutathione-related enzymes (glutathione peroxidase, glutathione-S-transferase [GST] and glutathione reductase [GR]) in pig blood platelets were investigated in vitro. GST activity in blood platelets treated with 10⁻⁴ M of selenite was reduced to 50%, whereas no decrease GST activity was observed after the treatment of platelets with the same dose of selenate. In platelets incubated with physiological doses (10⁻⁷, and 10⁻⁶ M) of Se compounds, the activity of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) was enhanced (about 20%). GR activity after the exposure of platelets to tested Se compounds was unaffected.     

白内障晶体中某些微量元素、与谷胱甘肽相关酶类活性的动态观察及其相互关系

本文动态观察了用平阳霉素诱发的大鼠白内障晶体中与谷胱甘肽代谢相关酶类活性和微量元素水平的变化,并与正常晶体进行比较,同时就酶活性与微量元素水平的相关性进行了检验。结果表明：（１）注射平阳霉素早期酶活性增高,谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶（ＧＳＨ－Ｐｘ）、谷胱甘肽还原酶（ＧＳＳＧ－Ｒ）及超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）等活性的升高达显著水平,后期酶活性均下降,尤以ＧＳＨ－Ｐｘ、ＧＳＳＧ－Ｒ和谷胱甘肽硫转移酶（ＧＳＨ－Ｓ）等的活性降低明显;（２）ＧＳＨ－Ｐｘ和ＳＯＤ酶活性分别与Ｚｎ具有相关性（Ｐ＜０．０５）,这两种酶也分别与Ｓｅ具有高度相关性（Ｐ＜０．０１）,此两种元素在该类型白内障形成中可能有一定意义。     

Antagonistic effect of scutellarin on the toxicity of selenium in rat livers

Selenium has both nutritional function and toxicity according to its concentration and species. To counteract the toxicity of selenium, scutellarin was investigated. Wistar rats were supplemented with 40 μg Se/kg/d as sodium selenite, 40 μg Se/kg/d with 20 mg/kg/d scutellarin, and 20 mg/kg/d scutellarin, respectively, for 15 d. The mRNA levels and activities of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and thioredoxin reductase (TR), and the malondialdehyde (MDA) contents were measured. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were detected by chemiluminescence assay, and tissue conformation was investigated by histological study. The results showed significant decreases of mRNA levels and activities of GSH-Px and TR and a significant increase of MDA content in livers of the Se-treated rats (p<0.05, compared with the control). Supplementation of scutellarin to the Se-treated group significantly inhibited the decreases of mRNA levels and activities, and the increase of MDA content (p<0.05, compared with the Setreated group). Meanwhile, scutellarin-scavenged ROS generated in the mixture of sodium selenite, reduced glutathione, and oxygen. Liver injury was displayed in slices exposed to selenium at the present dose. The groups treated with both selenium and scutellarin or only scutellarin did not show significant tissue damage. Thus, scutellarin had an antagonistic effect against the toxicity of selenium.     

亚硒酸钠对烟草冠瘿组织生长的影响及其与内源激素的关系

低浓度(0.1～1μmol/L)亚硒酸钠(Na_2-ScO_s)对烟草冠瘿组织的生长有促进作用;但浓度较高时(5～20μmol/L)不仅对生长有抑制作用,同时能促使其内源吲哚乙酸(IAA)和玉米素(ZA)含量下降,脱落酸(ABA)含量增加,IAA氧化酶活性增强。适宜浓度的外源2,4-D,IAA,6-BA,ZA都可部分缓解较高浓度Na_2SeO_3对生长的抑制作用,其中2,4-D,6-BA的缓解能力分别大于IAA和ZA。Na_2SeO_3还引起烟草冠瘿组织过氧化物同工酶谱发生显著变化,这种变化可被适宜浓度的外源6-BA逆转,并向正常组织方向转化,缓解较高浓度Na_2SeO_3对生长的抑制作用与逆转其过氧化物同工酶谱变化的6-BA浓度范围完全一致。     

Effect of Sodium Selenite and Vitamin E on the Renal Cortex in Rats: An Ultrastructure Study

This study examined the use of vitamin E to alleviate toxic effects of sodium selenite. Adult male albino rats (n = 50) was divided into five groups. Group 1 was control, Groups 2 and 4 were treated with sodium selenite (2 mg/kg) for 2 and 4 weeks, respectively, Groups 3 and 5 were treated with sodium selenite (2 mg/kg) and vitamin E (100 mg/kg) for 2 and 4 weeks, respectively. Renal tissues were studied using anti-BCL2 and examined ultrastructurally. Positive Bax immunoreactivity was detected after 2 and more positive after 4 weeks and nearly all groups improved with co-administration of vitamin E. Ultrastructural study revealed lesions in Bowman's capsule and proximal convoluted tubules. The submicroscopic study revealed damage and necrosis of cortical structures after 2 and 4 weeks, respectively. After 4 weeks, cellular changes were seen, such as vacuolation and moderate degeneration of cells, widening of the urinary space scattered through the cortex with loss of cellular details, formation of apical buds, degeneration, and cellular rupture. Present findings disclosed an ameliorative effect of adding vitamin E to sodium selenite-induced changes in cortical tissues. Clinically, it is advised to add vitamin E to avoid selenium overdose hazards.     

Thioredoxin reductase is one of the selenoproteins in both promyelocytic and granulocytic HL-60 cells

Human leukemia promyelocytic HL-60 cells differentiate into granulocytes when cultured with 1.25% dimethyl sulfoxide for 3 d. The radioactive Na₂ ⁷⁵SeO₃ incorporation and the amount of total proteins were interrelated in both promyelocytic and granulocytic HL-60. Promyelocytic cells had four times higher⁷⁵Se incorporation and 34% more protein synthesis than the granulocytic cells on the fifth culturing day. The enzyme activities of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px, E.C. 1.11.1.9) and thioredoxin reductase (TrxR, E.C. 1.6.4.5) in both types of cells increased significantly and approached steady stage on the third day. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) analysis and autoradiography of the proteins from the cells revealed three proteins with molecular weights of57, 28, and 21 kDa, respectively. These three⁷⁵Se-labeled proteins were present in both types of cells. The proteins from HL-60 cells were separated by DEAE-Sepharose and 2′5′-ADP-Sepharose columns. The purified 57-kDa protein had TrxR activity of 0.744 Μmol 5′-thionitrobenzoic acid (TNB) formed/min/mg protein and two isoelectric points at pH 5.9 and 6.0. These results suggest that TrxR is one of the selenoproteins in both promyelocytic and granulocytic HL-60 cells.
