【摘要】 目的　探讨牛磺酸 (Tau)对染铅大鼠学习记忆影响的改善作用。方法　 4 0只Wistar大鼠随机均分为 5组 :空白对照组、铅染毒组 (40mg·kg-1·d-1醋酸铅灌胃 4周 )、Tau 10 0mg组 (10 0mg·kg-1·d-1)、Tau 4 0 0mg组 (40 0mg·kg-1·d-1)、Tau 80 0mg组 (80 0mg·kg-1·d-1) :染铅后继续灌胃 4周。第 5～ 8周每周用方位水迷宫试验测试学习记忆能力 1次。第 8周末处死动物 ,测定全血铅和脑丙二醛 (MDA)、超氧化物歧化酶 (SOD)、谷胱甘肽 (GSH)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶 (GSH PX)、一氧化氮合成酶 (NOS)、乙酰胆碱酯酶 (AChE)等指标水平。结果　 (1)水迷宫实验中 ,各Tau治疗组大鼠逃逸时间均少于铅染毒组 ,其中Tau 80 0mg组在第 6、7、8周实验、Tau 4 0 0mg组在第 6周的实验中 ,逃逸时间与铅染毒组比较 ,差异有显著性 (P <0 .0 5 )。 (2 )Tau 10 0、4 0 0mg组大鼠血铅水平分别为 (5 10 .90±5 7.5 6 )、(485 .4 0± 98.85 ) μg/L ,与铅染毒组比较 ,差异有显著性 (P <0 .0 5 )。 (3)Tau 80 0、4 0 0mg组大鼠脑MDA水平、SOD活力、NOS活力、AChE活力以及Tau 80 0mg组GSH含量、GSH PX活力与铅染毒组比较 ,差异有显著性 (P <0 .0 5或P <0 .0 1)。结论　Tau可改善染铅大鼠的学习记忆能力 ,对铅染毒大鼠的大脑有一定的更多还原

【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the improvement of taurine(Tau) in learning and memory ability of rats exposed to lead. Methods Forty Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group:treated with distilled water;lead group:treated with lead acetate(40 mg·kg -1 ·d -1 );lead-taurine group 1,2,3:lead acetate(40 mg·kg -1 ·d -1 )+different concentrations of taurine(100,400,800 mg·kg -1 ·d -1 ).The ability of learning and memory of rats were measured weekly by spatial water maze test from the 5th to 8th week.At the end of the experiment,the rats were killed,the samples of blood and brain were taken for test. Results (1)The time of seeking anchorage of lead-Tau 800 mg group in the 6th,7th,8th week and that of lead-Tau 400 mg group in the 6th week were significantly lower than that of lead group( P <0.05).(2)Blood lead contents in lead-Tau 100 mg and lead-Tau 400 mg group[(510.9±57.56)μg/L?(485.40±98.85)μg/L] were different from those in lead group( P <0.05).(3)The content of malondialdehyde(MDA) and the activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD),nitric oxide synthase(NOS),acetylcholinesterase(AChE) in brain of lead-Tau 800 mg group and lead-Tau 400 mg group were also different from those in lead group( P < 0.05 or P <0.01).The content of GSH and the activity of GSH-Px in lead-Tau 800 mg group were different from those in lead group( P <0.05) as well. Conclusion Taurine could improve learning and memory ability of rats exposed to lead and may play a protective role in brain .更多还原
