大鼠睾丸扭转复位后附睾唾液酸含量变化及意义

目的 :探讨大鼠睾丸扭转 2h和 4h复位后 2 4h附睾唾液酸含量的变化和意义。　方法 :用 2 4只雄性SD大鼠建立左侧睾丸扭转复位模型 ,分为对照组、扭转 2h组和 4h组 ,每组 8只。 5 甲基苯二酚法检测扭转侧附睾唾液酸的含量。　结果 :睾丸扭转 2h复位后 2 4h扭转侧附睾唾液酸含量 (2 3.385± 9.2 2 0 )mg/mgprot]改变不明显 ;睾丸扭转 4h复位后 2 4h附睾唾液酸含量 (13.72 5± 7.80 1)mg/mgprot]下降明显 (P <0 .0 5 )。　结论 :睾丸扭转 2h复位后 2 4h附睾分泌唾液酸功能不受影响 ,扭转 4h复位后 2 4h附睾分泌唾液酸功能下降 ;附睾耐受缺血再灌注损伤的时间可能较长。

The Change and Implication of Epididymis Sialic Acid Following Torsing/Detorsing Testes in Rats

Objective: To investigate the change and implication of epididymis sialic acid after 24 hours following 2- or 4- hour torsing/detorsing of testes in rats. Methods: Twenty-four adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to unilateral 720 degrees testicular torsion for 2 and 4 hours and then repaired. The ischemic epididymides were collected for detecting the content of sialic acid by spectrophotometry. Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the content of epididymis sialic acid after 24 hours following 2-hour torsing/detorsing of testes and that of the sham group, while significant difference was found between the content of epididymis sialic acid after 24 hours following 4-hour torsing/detorsing of testes and that of sham group. Conclusions: Sialic acid-secreting-function of epididymis can remain normal after one day following 2-hour torsing/detorsing of testes, and be injured after one day following 4-hour torsing/detorsing of testes. The epididymis remains resistant to ischemic damage during testicular ischemia.
