Effect of Chlordecone (Cd) and malnutrition on total body and spleen weights, and plaque forming cells (PFC) were studied. Rats were fed on normal, calcium (Ca-D), protein (P-D) or Ca+P-deficient diets containing 0, 10 or 100 ppm of Cd for 2 or 4 weeks. High (95-100%) mortality was observed in malnourished rats treated with 100 ppm of Cd for 4 weeks. A slight decrease in body weight and an increase in spleen weight was observed in normal but not malnourished rats treated with 10 ppm of Cd for 4 weeks. PFC were significantly increased in both malnourished and Cd-treated rats. Similar increase in PFC was observed in rats fed on Ca-D but not P-D diet containing 10 or 100 ppm of Cd. Whereas, rats fed on Ca+P-D diet containing 100 ppm of Cd exhibited a significant decrease in PFC.
研究了十氯酮(Cd)和营养不良对大鼠体重、脾脏重量及空斑形成细胞(PFC)的影响。将大鼠分别喂食正常饮食、缺钙(Ca-D)、缺蛋白(P-D)或同时缺钙和蛋白(Ca+P-D)的饮食,这些饮食中含有0、10或100 ppm的Cd,持续2或4周。用100 ppm的Cd处理4周的营养不良大鼠出现了高死亡率(95-100%)。用10 ppm的Cd处理4周的正常大鼠体重略有下降,脾脏重量增加,但营养不良大鼠未出现此现象。营养不良大鼠和经Cd处理的大鼠的PFC均显著增加。在喂食含10或100 ppm Cd的Ca-D饮食但非P-D饮食的大鼠中也观察到PFC有类似增加。然而,喂食含100 ppm Cd的Ca+P-D饮食的大鼠PFC显著减少。
