Objective To explore the effect of oxygen inhalation on the retinae of newborn rats and its mechanism.Methods We mimicked the retinopathy of prematurity(ROP) by putting the newborn rats in high concentrated oxygen. One-day old rats were put into the oxygen box with the oxygen concentration of 80% for continuous 7 days; then in air condition for 7 days. The arterial blood oxygen pressure, retinal superoxide dismutase (SOD), and malondialdehyde (MDA) of the rats (1,2,4,7,8,9,11,14 days old) were examined. The diameter of retinal vessels′main branch and the coverage rate of peripheral vessels were measured in 7- and 14-day-old rats by ink perfusion. The retinal neovascularization of rats (8,9,11, 14 days old) were observed by HE staining. The rats of the same age fed in air condition were in the control group.Results The differential pressures of blood oxygen of rats (1,2,4,7 days old) in study group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P＜0.01), while the differential pressures of blood oxygen of rats (8,9,11,14 days old) in study group were lower than those in the control group (P＞0.05). The contents of SOD of the retinae in the rats ( 1,2,4,7,8 days old) were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.01, P＜0.05 ), while the contents of MDA were significantly higher than those in the control group (P＜0.01,P＜0.05). The diameter of retinal vessels′main branch in 7-day rats was 75% of the control group, and the coverage rate of peripheral vessels was 22% of the control group; and was 61% and 73% respectively in 14-day-old rats. The neovascularization could be seen in 16.7% of the rats in the study group and nought in the control group.Conclusion The damage of free radical of the retina in high concentrated oxygen and hypoxia situation after oxygen supply may be one of the most important mechanism of ROP.

【Abstract】Objective To investigate the expressions of TNF-α and superoxide dismutase (SOD) mRNA in myocardium of rats with obstructive jaundice (OJ). Methods The expressions of TNF-α and SOD mRNA were semi-quantitatively analyzed after amplification of cDNA in myocardium of the rats with OJ by RTPCR. Results The expression of TNF-α mRNA increased and that of SOD mRNA decreased in the myocardium of rats with OJ. The level of plasm TNF-α increased and SOD synthesis in myocardium decreased. Conclusion The injury of myocardium in OJ is correlated with increasing expression of TNF-α mRNA and decreasing expression of SOD mRNA.
To study the variations of l ipid peroxidation products and copper, zinc-superoxide dismutase(CuZn-SOD) in pathological scars (hypertrophic scars and keloids). Methods The specimens were gained from patients of voluntary contributions from May 2005 to August 2005. The tissues of hypertrophic scar (10 cases, aged 16-35 years, the mean course of disease was 2.2 years), keloid (10 cases, aged 17-32 years, the mean course of disease was 8 months) and normal skin (8 cases, aged 16-34 years) were obtained. The content of malonaldehyde (MDA)and CuZn-SOD activity were detected by spectrophotometric method. The expression of CuZn-SOD was evaluated by immunohistochemistry technique. Results The contents of MDA and CuZn-SOD activity were significantly higher in hypertrophic scars[MDA (1.139 0 ± 0.106 7)nmoL/mg prot, CuZn-SOD (31.65 ± 2.21)U/mg prot, (P lt; 0.05)]and keloids[MDA (1.190 0 ± 0.074 8)nmoL/ mg prot, CuZn-SOD (34.36 ± 5.01)U/mg prot (P lt; 0.05)] than those of normal skin tissues [MDA (0.821 3 ± 0.086 4)nmoL/mg prot, CuZn-SOD (20.60 ± 5.56)U/mg prot]. Immunohistochemical studies indicated that the brown particles were CuZn-SOD positive signals, which mainly located cytoplasm in normal skin tissues, hypertrophic scars as well as keloids epidermal keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts. CuZn-SOD expression evaluation in hypertrophic scars (4.14 ± 0.90, P lt; 0.05) and keloids epidermal keratinocytes (4.43 ± 0.79, P lt; 0.05) markedly increased when compared with normal skin tissues (2.20 ± 0.45). The expression of CuZn-SODin hypertrophic scars (4.00 ± 0.82, P lt; 0.05) and keloids dermal fibroblasts (4.43 ± 0.53, P lt; 0.05) were significantly higher than that of normal skin tissues (1.60 ± 0.89). There were no differences in the content of MDA, CuZn-SOD activity and expression evaluation between hypertrophic scars and keloids (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion In pathological scars, the contents of MDA and CuZn-SOD activity increase and the expressions of CuZn-SOD are enlarged.

Objective To explore the association between manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) Val-9Ala polymorphism and breast cancer risk and to investigate the interaction with menopausal status by meta-analysis. Methods Such databases as The Cochrane Libtary (Issue1, 2010), Pubmed, CBM, CNKI and WanFang Data were searched from the date of their establishment to October, 2010, and the case-control studies of MnSOD Val-9Ala polymorphism and breast cancer risk were collected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Then the quality of the included trials was assessed and meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 4.2.10 software. Results A total of 14 studies involving 17 842 patients were included. The results of meta-analyses showed no significant relation between MnSOD Val-9Ala polymorphism and the breast cancer susceptibility (Val/Ala vs. Val/Val: OR=1.04, 95%CI 0.93 to 1.17; Ala/Ala vs. Val/Val: OR=1.12, 95%CI 0.95 to 1.33; Ala/Ala vs. Val/Ala+Val/Val: OR=1.06, 95%CI 0.93 to 1.20; Val/Ala+ Ala/Ala vs. Val/Val: OR=1.06, 95%CI 0.94 to 1.10). However, in the subgroup analysis, the breast cancer risk significantly increased for premenopausal women (Val/Ala+Ala/Ala vs. Val/Val: OR=1.15, 95%CI 1.01 to1.31). Conclusion This meta-analysis suggests that the MnSOD Val-9Ala polymorphism is not significantly associated with the breast cancer susceptibility, but it may increase the risk of breast cancer in the presence of menopausal state.
Through dog models of common bile duct obstruction (BDO), the contents of liver superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde(MDA) were measured 2,3,4 and 5 weeks after BDO. Results indicated that the hepatic MDA content was increased 2 weeks after BDO as compared with control group (Ｐ＜0.01), the hepatic SOD content was decreased 3 weeks after BDO (Ｐ＜0.05). When bile duct obstructing, these changed were more serious. The results suggest that liver has little ability to eliminate the superoxide free radicals after BDO, whereas the lipid peroxidation products increase. It may be one of the mechanisms of liver damage after BDO.
We assayed the levels of free radical and scavenger in the blood and lens of streptozotocin-in-duced diabetic SD rats, and found that the levels of lipoperoxide(LPO),MDA were higher than that of normal SD rats, and the total superoxygen dismutase (T-SOD), Cu-Zn-SOD) were lower that that of normal rats ( P lt;0.01 ). Simultaneous injection of streptozotocin and large dose of SOD could no avoid the occurence of diabetes mllitus, but did improve the metabolism of free radical in blood and lens. Hence, we think that large dose of SOD might be effective in preventing to development of diabetic cataract which is related to deterioration of free radical metabolism. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1994,10:25-27）
Perfusion of free flaps from groin of rabbits, after 12 hours of complete ischemia, with superoxide dismutase (SOD), an oxygen free radical scavenger, would significantly increase the survival rate of these flaps from 18.75% to 75% in the control group. Tissue levels of SOD and malonydialdehyde (MDA, an end product of lipoperoxidation) were measured before ischemia, after ischemia but before reperfusion, and 60 minites after reperfusion. In untreated flap, after 12 hours- ischemia, the SOD content of skin decreased significantly as compared with the SOD content before ischemia, and reperfusion further decreased SOD activity, while the concentration of MDA increased after ischemia and further increased after reperfusion. In the treated flaps, the concentration of SOD was not decrease and MADnot increased after reperfusion. There was a negative correlation between the values of SOD and MDA. These findings suggested that free oxygen radicals playedan important role in the free flap ischemia reperfusion injury. SOD could increase the survival of ischemic free-flaps by reducing lipoperoxidation. The results had significant clinical implications with regard to organ preservation and transplantation.
