Abstract:
Objective To observe the effects of sodium arsenite (NaAsO2) on apoptosis in primary cultured rat cerebellar granule cell and nerve globin mRNA expression.Methods Twenty 7-8 days postnatal Wistar rats were selected and decapitated cerebellar cortex, granular cell suspension was prepared and 4 × 109/m2 cells were seeded in the culture flask.Cells were exposed to different concentrations NaAsO2 [0 (control), 2, 5 and 10 μmol/L] for 24 h and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) content and apoptosis were determined by laser confocal,while real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect mRNA expression in cultured cells after 24 and 48 h cell culture.Results Fluorescence intensity of ROS of 0, 2, 5, 10 μmol/L fluoride groups were 421.32 ± 53.52,1 082.09 ± 321.58, 2 223.02 ± 1 011.37 and 1 366.87 ± 102.14, the difference was statistically significant (F =5.873,P ＜ 0.05);Apoptosis rates were (8.91 ± 5.63)％, (26.46 ± 1.77)％, (43.65 ± 14.45)％ and (56.04 ± 6.95)％, the difference was statistically significant (F =18.369, P ＜ 0.05);24 h nerve globin mRNA expression were 1.00 ± 0.06,0.77 ± 0.22, 0.43 ± 0.18 and 0.42 ± 0.14, the difference was statistically significant (F =18.235, P ＜ 0.05);48 h nerve globin mRNA expression were 1.00 ± 0.01, 0.89 ± 0.09, 0.60 ± 0.16 and 0.08 ± 0.02, the difference was statistically significant (F =80.843, P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion With increased NaAsO2 concentration, ROS and apoptosis levels are increased, while nerve globin mRNA expression is significantly reduced, suggesting that after the body is stimulated, protective proteins might be consumed, further suggesting nerve globin expression might be involved in nerve damage caused by arsenic.
