Abstract:
The preventive effects of some drugs on pulmonary lipid peroxi-dation and inborn oxidation protectant system in the lungs were observed in rats after the animals were exposed to 200 ppm of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) for 3 hours.Malondialdehyde (MDA) level of the lungs and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF),superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity,glutathione(GSH) and vitamin E (VE) levels of the lungs were determined in the 6th and 12th hour after H2S inhalation.It was found that a significant increase of MDA level of both the lungs and BALF and a significant decrease of SOD activity and GSH and VE level occured after a single exposure to 200 ppm of H2S inhalation.On the contrany,the MAD level of every group of which the animals had been medicated for prevention was lower than that of the intoxicated groups.Among the premedicated groups,the MDA level of 4-dimethylaminophenol(DMAP) group,VE group,and NaNO2 group was not different from that of the normal except that the MDA level in BALF was higher in VE and NaNO2 group than in the control.In every premedicated groups,SOD activity was increased and GSH and VE levels were elevated.These facts suggest that DMAP,NaNO2,VE,dexamethasone and anisoda-mine all could reduce the MDA level and elevate the capacity of the oxidation protectant system of the lungs after H2S inhalation.It is concluded that there are drugs to protect victims from H2O intoxication while DMAP,NaNO2 and VE are relatively more potent among the drugs used in this study.
