Abstract:
The effect of riboflavin deficiency on the fluidity of erythrocyte (RBC) membrane, the level of membrane MDA, the activity of RBC SOD and lipid peroxidation were studied. Growing male rats were fed with an experimental (riboflavin-deficient, RD) or a control (riboflavin-supplemented, RS, 22mg/ kg) diet for 7 weeks.The RBC membrane of RD rats contained higher level of MDA (0.6868?0.1732 nmol/mg protein) compared with the control (0.5548?0.0980 nmol/mg protein), while the activity of RBC SOD (7.745210.6101 nU/mg protein) of RD rats were significantly decreared compared with the control (8.2685?0.3010 nU/mg protein), which indicated the lipid peroxidation was elevated.Membrane fluidity was studied with fluorescence polarization (P) and mean microviscosity (?) using DPH as probe. The value of P and? of RD rats (0.2976 ? 0.0198, 3.9483? 0.3680, respectively) were significantly higher than the RS rats (0.2760 ? 0.0207, 2.875310.4634, respectively), which showed the membrane fluidity in RD rats was decreased according with the increase in lipid peroxidation. This study demonstrated that the RBC membrane fluidity was dicrcased in riboflovin deficient rats. It was relative to the increasing lipid peroxidation and decreasing RBC SOD activity.
