Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of sulfur dioxide(SO2) pollution in different concentrations on activity of SOD,levels of GSH and MDA in heart and lung tissue of exercised rats,in order to elucidate the toxicological mechanism of SO2 pollution.Methods Forty-eight SD rats were randomly divided into eight groups:a rest group(RG),an exercise group(EG),a low pollution exercise group(LEG),a low pollution rest group(LRG),a moderate pollution exercise group(MEG),a moderate pollution rest group(MRG),a high pollution exercise group(HEG) and a high pollution rest group(HRG).All groups,except RG and EG,were exposed to SO2 with different concentrations(5 mg/m3,10 mg/m3,15 mg/m3),meanwhile exercised rats run in a motor-driven wheel at a speed of 8 m/min,2 h/d for 10 days.Rats were sacrificed at 24 h after treatment and the anti-oxidative enzymes activity and lipid peroxidation(LPO) levels were measured.Results Compared with RG,SOD activity of lung tissue significantly decreased in HEG,MEG,LEG(P
