饮酒对小鼠睾丸生精小管一氧化氮合酶、增殖细胞核抗原表达及细胞凋亡影响的研究

目的　探讨酒精对小鼠睾丸的组织结构、内皮型一氧化氮合酶 (eNOS)、增殖细胞核抗原 (PCNA)及细胞凋亡的影响。　方法　用 5 %、10 %及 15 % 3种不同浓度的酒精作用于 2 2d龄小鼠 ,取睾丸做石蜡切片、HE染色 ;用免疫组织化学方法检测睾丸eNOS、细胞增殖的变化 ;TUNEL法检测细胞凋亡的变化 ,并进行统计学分析。　结果　随着酒精浓度的增大 ,睾丸组织结构发生明显改变 ,生精小管的直径逐渐减小 ,eNOS阳性细胞面积密度逐渐增大 ,单位面积内PCNA阳性细胞和凋亡细胞数目增加 ,高浓度酒精组与其他组差异极显著 (P <0 0 1)。　结论　酒精可使生精小管的直径变小 ,eNOS及PCNA表达增强 ,凋亡细胞增加并随酒精浓度的增大而变化加重。这可能是过量饮酒导致生精细胞减少 ,生殖能力降低的重要因素。

THE EFFECT OF ALCOHOL ON THE EXPRESSION OF eNOS,PCNA AND CELL APOPTOSIS OF SEMINIFEROUS TUBULES IN THE MOUSE TESTES

Objective To investigate the change of eNOS,the spermatogenic cell proliferation,apoptosis in mouse testis exerted by alcohol. Methods The immunohistochemical staining method for detecting of eNOS,PCNA,TUNEL method for detecting of apoptotic cells and the satistics analysis were used in the present study. Results With the increase of alcohol concentration,the structure of seminiferous tubule changed,the diameter of seminiferous tubule decreased,the surface density of postive eNOS cells increased gradually,and the number of positve PCNA cells and apoptosis cells also increased.There were significant difference in 15% alcohol concentration group compared with the other groups(P<0 01).Conclusion Alcohol injured mouse testis and the testicular tissues damage aggravated with the increase of alcohol concentration.More cells expressed eNOS in mice of high alcohol group which meant excessive NO had been produced,finally this might affect the function of testes.High concentration of alcohol stimulated the proliferation and apoptosis of the spermatogenic cells simultaneously which meant the proliferation related to the apoptosis of the spermatogenic cells,furthermore the notable change of apoptosis appeared earlier than that of the proliferation which might cause the decrease of spermatogenic cells and debase male reproductive capability.
