The effects were examined of 6-month intermittent hypobaric (4000 m) exposure on the antioxidant enzyme systems in soleus and tibialis muscles of rats. At the end of the 6-month experimental exposure, the six rats in both the exposed group and the control group were sacrificed. Immunoreactive mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) contents were measured as well as the activities of antioxidant enzymes [Mn-SOD, cytosolic SOD (Cu,Zn-SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPX)]. Thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) were also determined as an indicator of lipid peroxidation. The high altitude exposure resulted in a marked increase in TBARS content in soleus muscle, suggesting increased levels of oxygen free radicals. Conversely, significant decreases in both Mn-SOD content and activity in soleus muscle were noted after exposure. Such trends were not noticed in tibialis muscle. On the other hand, no significant changes in Cu,Zn-SOD, CAT, or GPX were observed in either muscle. These results suggested that the increases in lipid peroxidation were most probably a result of decreased Mn-SOD function which was more depressed in oxidative than in glycolytic muscle.
研究了6个月间歇性低压(4000米)暴露对大鼠比目鱼肌和胫骨前肌抗氧化酶系统的影响。在6个月的实验暴露结束时,处死暴露组和对照组的6只大鼠。测量免疫反应性线粒体超氧化物歧化酶(Mn-SOD)含量以及抗氧化酶[Mn-SOD、胞质SOD(Cu,Zn-SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GPX)]的活性。还测定了硫代巴比妥酸反应性物质(TBARS)作为脂质过氧化的指标。高原暴露导致比目鱼肌中TBARS含量显著增加,表明氧自由基水平升高。相反,暴露后比目鱼肌中Mn-SOD含量和活性均显著降低。在胫骨前肌中未观察到此类趋势。另一方面,在两种肌肉中均未观察到Cu,Zn-SOD、CAT或GPX有显著变化。这些结果表明,脂质过氧化的增加很可能是由于Mn-SOD功能下降所致,在氧化型肌肉中比在糖酵解型肌肉中下降更明显。
