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及其代射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     

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。

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。

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。     

板蓝根多糖对中华鳖小肠抗氧化酶活性和脂质过氧化的影响

研究了腹腔注射板蓝根多糖(IRPS)对中华鳖小肠抗氧化酶活性和脂质过氧化的影响.24只中华鳖分成4组,每天注射1.5 mg/只、 3 mg/只、 6 mg/只处理组和注射生理盐水对照组,连续注射3 d.结果 表明,3个IRPS处理组均能显著提高SOD、GSH-PX酶活性,极显著降低MDA含量,而且小肠SOD活性随注射剂量的增大而增强,MDA含量随注射剂量的增大而降低.3 mg/只注射组对GSH-PX酶活性提高最显著,1.5 mg/只剂量组能显著提高CAT酶活性,但3 mg/只、 6 mg/只剂量组对CAT酶活性无显著性影响.     

镉对尖紫蛤抗氧化酶活性及脂质过氧化的影响

为阐明镉(Cd2+)对尖紫蛤消化盲囊和鳃抗氧化酶的毒性影响程度,研究了不同浓度的Cd2+(0.005、0.05、0.5 mg/L)在不同暴露时间(24h、72h、120h)对尖紫蛤鳃和消化盲囊中超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-PX)的活性以及丙二醛(MDA)含量的影响。结果表明,在Cd2+浓度为0.005 mg/L时,在整个实验期间Cd2+对消化盲囊和鳃内的SOD、CAT、GSH-PX活性并无显著影响。在Cd2+浓度为0.05 mg/L和0.5 mg/L时,SOD、CAT、GSH-PX在鳃和消化盲囊中的活性都呈现出明显的时间剂量依赖关系。在0.05 mg/L暴露时,鳃和消化盲囊中的SOD、CAT和GSH-PX的活性随时间逐渐增强,在72h时达到最大值,但在120h时略有降低。在0.5 mg/L暴露时,消化盲囊中SOD、CAT及鳃中CAT活性在24h时上升达到最大值,但鳃中SOD直到72h才达到最大值,并均在120h下降到最低,其中消化盲囊中SOD和CAT活性在120h低于对照组,这可能与消化盲囊对Cd2+的敏感性高于鳃有关。在0.5 mg/L暴露的鳃中,GSH-PX在24h、72h活性并不上升,在120h甚至低于正常水平,0.5 mg/L暴露的消化盲囊中,24h时迅速增高,然后逐渐下降到正常值。这可能与Cd2+结合了GSH-PX的活性中心,降低了GSH-PX的活性有关。与3种酶活性随着时间延长和剂量的增加,酶活性会降低的变化趋势不同,鳃和消化盲囊中的MDA的含量随时间延长和剂量的增加而增加,并不出现下降,这表明尖紫蛤鳃和消化盲囊中的MDA含量可以灵敏的反映机体内的氧化损伤程度,但不能敏感的反映水体中Cd2+的污染情况。     

萝卜过氧化物酶对小鼠机体抗氧化作用的研究

水分胁迫对刺槐叶和根谷胱甘肽抗氧化系统的影响

在人工控水条件下,采用土壤最大持水量70%、55%、40%的水分处理模拟环境中的正常水分、轻度和重度水分胁迫处理,测定了刺槐叶片和根系中还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)和还原型抗坏血酸(AsA)含量以及谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性,以探讨水分胁迫条件下刺槐谷胱甘肽抗氧化系统的保护作用.结果显示:各水分处理的刺槐叶片GSH和AsA含量及GR 和SOD活性均明显高于根,根中GSH-Px活性只有在重度水分胁迫处理下大于叶片.随水分胁迫加剧,刺槐GSH含量在叶片中先升高后降低,在根中不断升高;AsA含量在叶中持续降低,在根中先升高后降低;GR活性在叶片和根系中都会降低,GSH-Px和SOD活性在叶中先升高后降低,在根中均持续升高.研究表明,刺槐谷胱甘肽抗氧化系统的GSH和GSH-Px对干旱胁迫诱发的活性氧清除起主要作用,同时提高GSH含量和GSH-Px活性是刺槐应对干旱胁迫的重要措施.     

三硝基甲苯致白内障机理及其在晶状体内代谢的研究

在建立TNT大鼠白内障的基础上,用HPLC分析了晶状体内TNT及其代谢产物,并用ESR及NBT方法检测了TNT在晶状体内的代谢过程所产生的自由基。结果表明,慢性染毒24个月的大鼠白内障晶状体内含有TNT原形和4氨基2,6二硝基甲苯代谢产物,以及在体外与正常晶状体微粒体孵育可产生TNT硝基阴离子自由基和超氧阴离子自由基。上述结果提示,TNT可进入晶状体内,在其还原代谢过程中产生硝基阴离子自由基中间产物,在有氧条件下进而产生超氧阴离子自由基,这可能是TNT导致白内障的启动因素。     

三硝基甲苯中毒性白内障动物模型的建立及其发病机理的初步研究

反复多次给大鼠皮下注射20％三硝基甲苯(TNT)甘油:水混悬液,染毒15个月后21％动物发生白内障,其裂隙灯检查结果与人TNT性白内障基本相似,同时注射甘油:水溶剂的对照组大鼠无一例发生白内障。染毒10个月的大鼠,其晶状体LPO增高,GSH-P_X及GST活性降低,GR活性无变化,而GSH含量明显增加;注射TNT后肝脏LPO值、GSH含量、GSH-P_X、GR及GST活性均明显增高。本文结果提示,TNT中毒性白内障的形成可能系TNT及其代谢产物直接作用于晶状体,造成昌状体氧化损伤所致。TNT白内障大鼠模型的建立亦为深入探讨其发病机理及防治奠定了基础。     

Antioxidative and growth-promoting effect of selenium on senescing lettuce

In human and animal cells, Se plays an essential role in antioxidation and exerts an antiaging function but it is toxic at high dietary intake. To increase its intake in forage and foodstuffs, Se fertilization is adopted in some countries where soils are low in bioavailable Se, even though higher plants are regarded not to require Se. To test its ability to counteract senescence-related oxidative stress in higher plants, a pot experiment was carried out with lettuce (Lactuca sativa) cultivated with increasing amounts of H₂SeO₄. The yields harvested 7 or 14 weeks after sowing revealed that a low Se dosage (0.1 mg kg^–1 soil) stimulated the growth of senescing seedlings (dry weight yield by 14%) despite a decreased chlorophyll concentration. The growth-promoting function was related to diminished lipid peroxidation. In young and senescing plants, the antioxidative effect of Se was associated with the increased activity of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px). In the senescing plants, the added Se strengthened the antioxidative capacity also by preventing the reduction of tocopherol concentration and by enhancing superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. When no Se was added, tocopherols and SOD activity diminished during plant senescence. The higher Se dosage (1.0 mg kg^–1 soil) was toxic and reduced the yield of young plants. In the senescing plants, it diminished the dry weight yield but not the fresh weight yield.     

白内障形成过程中晶状体细胞膜上脂类与蛋白质氧化的时间差异性

用马来酰亚胺和５恶唑氮氧自由基硬脂酸分别标记晶状体细胞膜中蛋白质及脂类,以电子自旋共振方法研究在三硝基甲苯、亚硒酸钠,半乳糖、平阳霉素及紫外线等白内障诱发剂作用下,晶状体细胞膜的氧化损伤变化。结果发现当晶状体细胞暴露于空气中时,晶状体细胞膜脂类氧化早于蛋白质氧化;在五种白内障诱发剂作用下,均是如此。这说明白内障的形成首先是由膜中脂类氧化所引起。     

高效菌株S对TNT的降解条件和机理初探

确立了筛选菌株S对TNT的降解条件并初步探讨了TNT的降解机理.研究表明,葡萄糖的加入显著促进了TNT的生物降解,培养16h后100mg/L的TNT去除率达100%;但不加入葡萄糖时TNT仍有12%的去除,S菌也有微量生长.硝酸钾的加入同样促进了TNT的完全降解,而不加入硝酸钾时TNT有80%的去除.TNT浓度的增加并没有影响其去除效果,高达200 mg/L的TNT仍可完全降解.TNT的降解过程包括TNT生物转化为缩合产物A和A物质的开环分解.生物催化体系中硝基还原酶、甲苯双加氧酶和邻苯二酚双加氧酶的检出为这一降解途径的存在提供了有力的酶学支持.     

蜂胶黄酮对小鼠脑so D 、 GsH 一Px 、 MDA 的影响

目的：研究蜂胶黄酮对小鼠脑组织的抗氧化系统的作用,以期探讨蜂胶黄酮的抗衰老作用机制。方法：以小鼠为实验对象,以其脑SOD、GSH—Px、MDA为指标,考察蜂胶黄酮的抗衰老作用。结果：蜂胶乙醇提取物（EEP）可使脑组织中SOD、GSH—Px活性明显增高,和空白组相比具有显著差异（P〈0、01）;使脑组织MDA明显降低,和空白组相比具有显著差异（P〈0．01）。结论：EEP可有效地提高脑组织中抗氧化酶的活性,降低脑MBA的含量,抑制和／或减轻脂质过氧化反应,从而防止了自由基过氧化对脑组织的损伤,可能是有效的脑组织保护荆。     

四种中草药对大鼠半乳糖性白内障相关酶活性的影响

本实验测定了中草药对大鼠半乳糖性白内障延缓及治疗中五种酶活性的影响。结果表明,在白内障晶状体中,醛糖还原酶的活性明显升高;多元醇脱氢酶,己糖激酶,6磷酸葡萄糖脱氢酶及过氧化氢酶的活性明显降低。在注射半乳糖的同时,分别用黄芩、石斛、菟絲子及玉蝴蝶四种中草药水煎剂灌胃,醛糖还原酶的活性没有明显升高,其余四种酶的活性均基本恢复到正常,表明这四种中草药对半乳糖所致的酶活性异常变化有抑制或纠正作用。     

The Effects of Cold Acclimation on Several Enzyme Activities in Cucumber Seedling

The changes in activities of SOD, peroxidase, catalase and ATPase in chilling sensitive cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) seedlings using biochemical and cytochemical methods were studied. The results indicated that the activities of SOD, peroxidase and catalase enhanced dramatically in cold acclimated cucumber seedlings and the three enzymes remained stable under chilling stress. Consequently, the ability of cleaning up free radical of oxygen and peroxidates increased. The cold-tolerant character of plasmalemma ATPase activity was developed after low-temperature acclimation. All these changes provided the possibility for protecting the stability of membrane structure and metabolism from chilling injury, and for the enhancement of cold tolerance by low temperature acclimation.     

Spore Germination and Carbon Metabolism in Fusarium solani V. Changes in Anaerobic Metabolism and Related Enzyme Activities during Development

Macroconidia of Fusarium solani f. phascoli have no detectable capacity to respire glucose anaerobically; germinated spores and mycelium, on the other hand, ferment glucose, although slowly.

Extracts of ungerminated spores contain hexokinase, phosphohexoisomerase, phosphofructokinase, aldolase, triose phosphate dehydrogenase, triose phosphate isomerase, phosphoglyceric kinase, enolase, phosphoglyceric mutase, pyruvate kinase, and pyruvate decarboxylase. It follows, therefore, that the appearance of fermentative capacity during spore germination cannot be ascribed to the de novo synthesis of any of these enzymes.

During germination and mycelial development the specific activity of all of the enzymes named except phosphohexoisomerase and aldolase increases 2- to 8-fold. Specific activity of all of the enzymes is substantially higher than the fermentative capacity of intact cells, i.e., none is limiting to anaerobic respiration.

The enzymatic assay data are consistent with a conclusion reached earlier on the basis of studies of aerobic glucose metabolism, that the process of germination involves an acceleration of pre-existing metabolic systems rather than an appearance of new pathways.

     

Iron Deficiency Induced Changes in Ascorbate Content and Enzyme Activities Related to Ascorbate Metabolism in Cucumber Roots

Ascorbate content and the activities of ascorbate free-radicalreductase (AFR-R) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) were investigatedin order to determine whether they are affected under Fe deficiency.Plasma membrane vesicles, cell wall and cytosolic fractionswere isolated from the roots of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)plants grown in the absence or in the presence of Fe. Plasmamembrane vesicles showed NADH-dependent reducing activitieswith Fe³⁺-citrate, ferricyanide and AFR as electron acceptors.Only AFR-R activity was stimulated ca. 3-fold in Fe deficientplasma membranes. No significant change in cytosolic AFR-R activitywas induced by Fe depletion, while the activity of cytosolicAPX was more than twice that of the non-deficient control. Furthermore,the content of ascorbate (AA) was enhanced ca. 1.7-fold in Fedeficient roots. These results indicate that metabolic changesresulting in enhanced AA levels and activities of AFR-R andAPX in the roots could be related to plant responses to Fe deficiencystress.
