经口摄入高硒镉对大鼠肝,肾组织中镉,锌,铜含量影响的研究

选用4周龄SD大鼠,经口染毒高硒(5.68mg/kg)、富硒(0.73mg/kg)和(或)高镉(33.3mg/kg)12周,并分别在实验的第3、6、9、12周末各处死一批大鼠,研究经口摄入高硒高镉对大鼠肝、肾组织中镉、锌、铜含量的影响。结果表明:同时摄入高硒高镉组大鼠体内镉蓄积明显低于单纯摄入高镉组;对单独摄入高硒、高镉所诱导的大鼠肝脏锌含量增加表现为拮抗作用;对单独摄入高硒所致大鼠肾脏锌含量降低的影响表现为拮抗作用;对单独摄入高硒、高镉所致大鼠肾脏铜含量增加的影响表现为协同作用。

硒和维生素A对支原体肺炎的治疗效果观察

观察硒和维生素A(VA)对支原体肺炎的治疗效果.方法 采用双盲随机对照2×2析因实验设计,选择100例住院支原体肺炎患儿,分为补硒组26例,补VA组23例,补硒和VA组30例以及病例对照组21例,正常组21例.一次补硒量为1mg亚硒酸钠和/或15万单位VA,对照病例组给予常规治疗.结果 与对照组比,治疗后3个补充组的症状和体征缓解天数均有不同程度缩短(P<0.05),补硒组白细胞硒和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶水平显著上升(P<0.05),补VA、补硒组血清VA水平上升(P<0.01),细胞免疫功能有所改善.结论 硒和VA有协同作用,补充硒或同时加VA,作为辅助治疗支原体肺炎的方法,安全、有效.     

高原环境下大鼠对硒制剂耐受力的实验研究

本实验将大鼠从上海空运至兰州，很快转至高海拔地区，用光镜及电镜观察了亚硒酸钠对大鼠的影响。结果发现在高原环境下大鼠对硒的耐受力减低，引起了大鼠猝死半加得高原缺氧对心肌的损伤，降低了大鼠高原适应性。本文还对其耐受机理进行了初步讨论。     

硒对沙土鼠脑缺血再灌注的保护作用及其作用机制研究

目的 研究亚硒酸钠对沙土鼠脑缺血再灌注损伤的保护作用及其机制。方法 将50只沙土鼠随机分为5组，Ⅰ组：假手术组；Ⅱ组：缺血灌注1天处死组；Ⅲ组：缺血再灌注4天处死组；Ⅳ组：硒处理、缺血再灌1天处死组；Ⅴ组：硒处理、缺血再灌注4天处死组。采用夹闭双侧颈动脉法制备沙土鼠脑缺血再灌注模型，焦油紫染色，光镜下观察各组海马CAl区神经细胞的形态变化，电镜下超微结构变化。同时测定脑组织中丙二醛(MDA)、谷胱甘肽过氧化酶(GSH-PX)、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)的含量。结果 硒处理组沙土鼠脑缺血再灌注后，神经细胞病理形态损伤较轻，SOD、GSH-PX含量较高，MDA含量较低。结论 硒对沙土鼠脑缺血再灌注损伤具有保护作用，其机制可能和增强脑缺血再灌注早期脑组织中SOD、GSH-PX的活性，抑制氧自由基损伤，减轻脂质过氧化反应有关。     

Dietary selenium's protective effects against methylmercury toxicity

Dietary selenium (Se) status is inversely related to vulnerability to methylmercury (MeHg) toxicity. Mercury exposures that are uniformly neurotoxic and lethal among animals fed low dietary Se are far less serious among those with normal Se intakes and are without observable consequences in those fed Se-enriched diets. Although these effects have been known since 1967, they have only lately become well understood. Recent studies have shown that Se-enriched diets not only prevent MeHg toxicity, but can also rapidly reverse some of its most severe symptoms. It is now understood that MeHg is a highly specific, irreversible inhibitor of Se-dependent enzymes (selenoenzymes). Selenoenzymes are required to prevent and reverse oxidative damage throughout the body, particularly in the brain and neuroendocrine tissues. Inhibition of selenoenzyme activities in these vulnerable tissues appears to be the proximal cause of the pathological effects known to accompany MeHg toxicity. Because Hg's binding affinities for Se are up to a million times higher than for sulfur, its second-best binding partner, MeHg inexorably sequesters Se, directly impairing selenoenzyme activities and their synthesis. This may explain why studies of maternal populations exposed to foods that contain Hg in molar excess of Se, such as shark or pilot whale meats, have found adverse child outcomes, but studies of populations exposed to MeHg by eating Se-rich ocean fish observe improved child IQs instead of harm. However, since the Se contents of freshwater fish are dependent on local soil Se status, fish with high MeHg from regions with poor Se availability may be cause for concern. Further studies of these relationships are needed to assist regulatory agencies in protecting and improving child health.     

Effect of dietary selenium and vitamin E on the biomechanical properties of rabbit bones

Summary It is generally agreed that combined deficiency of selenium and vitamin E leads to several abnormalities including Kashin-Beck disease which is an endemic and chronic degenerative osteoarthrosis. The abnormalities can be reversed by the administration of various forms of selenium and vitamin E.The present study was designed to investigate the effects of dietary selenium and vitamin E on bone tissue and on the biomechanical properties of bone. Young rabbits of both sexes were fed with either a selenium- and vitamin E-adequate diet (control group), or a selenium- and vitamin E-deficient diet or a selenium-excess diet. The selenium-deficient diet resulted in a significant decrease in plasma selenium level and the selenium-excess diet resulted in a significant increase in the plasma selenium level with respect to the corresponding control values (p<0.05). The diets did not affect the blood cell counts considerably but erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase activity increased (decreased) relatively when the plasma selenium level increased (decreased) (p<0.05). The light microscopic investigations of the bone tissues of the two experimental groups indicate that the findings of the present work are compatible with osteomalacia. The biomechanical properties of the bones from the three groups were determined experimentally with bending tests. Both the Se-and vitamin E-deficient diet and the Se-excess diet decreased the biomechanical strength of the bones significantly while the bones belonging to the control group always had the largest modulus of elasticity (p<0.05).
