为研究呼吸道大肠杆菌对肉仔鸡肝脏抗氧化能力的影响,选取24只初始体质量相近、健康状况良好的固始肉仔鸡,随机分为2组,对照组肉仔鸡气管滴注1 m L无菌培养液,大肠杆菌组肉仔鸡气管滴注1 m L大肠杆菌培养液(1×10~9cfu/m L)。滴注后...为研究呼吸道大肠杆菌对肉仔鸡肝脏抗氧化能力的影响,选取24只初始体质量相近、健康状况良好的固始肉仔鸡,随机分为2组,对照组肉仔鸡气管滴注1 m L无菌培养液,大肠杆菌组肉仔鸡气管滴注1 m L大肠杆菌培养液(1×10~9cfu/m L)。滴注后2 h采集血液和肝脏组织,测定血清中细菌脂多糖(LPS)、谷丙转氨酶(ALT)和谷草转氨酶(AST)含量,以及肝脏组织中丙二醛(MDA)含量、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-PX)和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性。结果表明,气管滴注大肠杆菌后2 h,大肠杆菌组肉仔鸡血清中LPS含量为33.86 U/mg,较对照组升高了26.15%;AST和ALT含量较对照组分别增加了50.89%(P<0.05)和298.77%(P<0.01);大肠杆菌组肉仔鸡肝脏组织中SOD活性和GSH-PX活性分别为186.60 U/mg和13.20 U/mg,较对照组分别降低了43.83%(P<0.01)和31.18%(P>0.05);MDA含量增加了51.72%(P<0.05)。综上,气管滴注大肠杆菌后2 h,大肠杆菌大量繁殖,释放出的LPS通过血液循环进入肝脏,肝脏中抗氧化酶活性降低,引起脂质过氧化物堆积,破坏肝脏细胞,导致血清中转氨酶水平升高。展开更多

The present study is concerned with the evaluation of the previously synthesized N-Butylpyridoquinoxaline 1,4-dioxide (NBPQD) as an antitumor agent against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC). The first part of the study (tumor imaging) was to investigate the biodistribution of NBPQD in the organs of EAC-bearing mice using iodine-125 isotope stressing on its distribution in the main organs (stomach, liver, spleen, kidney) in addition to blood and ascetic fluid. The second part was the assessment of the antitumor activity of NBPQD by estimating the tumor volume and the contents of total protein, total lipid, DNA and RNA in liver tissues. In addition, liver function tests and the redox status were assessed. Tumor volume and DNA, RNA, urea and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and the liver enzymes activity were highly significantly increased (P < 0.001) in untreated EAC-bearing mice compared to control. However, total lipid and total protein in liver tissues in addition to serum albumin, glucose, reduced glutathione (GSH) as well as activities of glutathione reductase (GSH-R) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) all were highly significantly decreased in untreated EAC-bearing mice compared to controls. All these decreased parameters were highly significantly restored to their normal levels in NBPQD treated mice compared to the untreated EAC-bearing mice. The survival time of the NBPQD treated mice was longer than that of the untreated ones. It is thus, evident that NBPQD had a remarkable antitumor activity against EAC in Swiss albino mice.展开更多
