ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of different concentrations of ozone on nigra oxidative stress and apoptosis-related protein expression in rats with Parkinson's disease (PD).Methods Thirty-two adult male SD rats aged 2-3 months and weighted 180-220 g were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=8):PD group,PD+ozone 20 group (given ozone 20 mg/L),PD+ozone 50 group (given ozone 50 mg/L) and control group; rats in the former three groups were given right striatum injection of 15 μg 6-OHDA to induce PD models,and rats in the control group were given the same volume of normal saline; four weeks after PD inducement,mixed gases of 5.0 mL of oxygen and ozone (20 mg/L and 50 mg/L,1 mg/kg) were given to rats in the PD+ozone 20 group and PD+ozone 50 group,respectively,for 15 d.Then,tissues were obtained from nigra; the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px),and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured by using chromometry; the protein expressions of B cell lymphoma/lewkmia-2 (Bcl-2) and Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax) were detected by using Western blotting.Results As compared with those in the control group,the GSH-Px activity was significantly decreased and the MDA content was significantly increased in PD group,PD+ozone 20 group and PD+ozone 50 group (P<0.05); the GSH-Px activity (6.98±0.60 vs 9.37±0.41、10.04±0.59) was significantly increased and the MDA content(2.31±0.54 vs 1.85±0.29、1.79±0.39) was significantly decreased in PD+ozone 20 group and PD+ozone 50 group as compared with those in the PD group (P<0.05).Western blotting indicated no significant differences of protein expressions of Bax and Bcl-2 among the four groups (P>0.05).Conclusion Ozone can improve antioxidation capability of rats with PD by increasing the activity of GSH-PX,while it does not affect the expression levels of Bax and Bcl-2.
