[Intervention effects of drugs on GSH and SOD enzyme activity of rats kidney acutely poisoned by nickel carbonyl].

ABSTRACT

Objective: To evaluate the intervention effect of various drugs on glutathione (GSH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzyme activity of rats kidney with acute nickel carbonyl poisoning. Methods: In January 2019, The 250 SPF male SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group (n=10) , poisoned group (n=40) and treatment groups (n=200) according to the random number table method. And the treatment groups were divided into methylprednisolone group (20 mg/kg) , DDC group (100 mg/kg) , sodium selenite group (10 µmol/kg) , Shenfu huiyang decoction group (0.25 ml) and methylprednisolone combined with DDC group (100 mg/kg) , with 40 mice in each group. Except for the normal control group, rats in the other groups were exposed to nickel carbonyl for 30 min, at 4 h and 30 h after exposure, the rats in each treatment group were intraperitoneally injected with corresponding drugs, and kidney tissues were collected 3 d and 7 d after administration, with 10 mice in each group. The activities of GSH and SOD in kidney were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and using electron microscopy observe ultrastructure changes. Results: Compared to the control group, the activities of GSH and SOD enzyme of poisoned group were significantly decreased at 3 d or 7 d after 4 h or 30 h exposure, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.000, 0.031, 0.001, 0.033) , the epithelial nuclei of proximal convoluted tubules were pyknosis and lysosome hyperplasia in the cytoplasm. And compared to poisoned group, the activities of GSH and SOD enzyme of methylprednisolone+DDC group were significantly increased at treatment with 7 d after 4 h exposure, the difference was statistically significant (P=0.022, 0.000) , and the activities of GSH and SOD enzyme of methylprednisolone and enzyme of methylprednisolone+DDC group were significantly higher at 7 days than at 3 days, the difference was statistically significant (P=0.020, 0.017, 0.018, 0.033) . The results of electron microscopy showed that the cell nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles of proximal convolute tubule were almost restored to normal tissue level of both methylprednisolone group and methylprednisolone+DDC group. Conclusion: The methylprednisolone and methylprednisolone+DDC have obvious repair effect on renal enzyme activity level of rats with acute nickel carbonyl poisoning, and the treatment effect is better for a long time of medication.
