Abstract:
Aim To study the effect of S-methylisothiourea(SMT) on adriamy ci n (ADM) induced myocardial lipid peroxidation in rats.Methods T hirty-two Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups: control group;SMT treated group ( SMT5.0 mg?kg -1,iv,only 1 time);ADM treated group (ADM 5.0 mg?kg -1, ip, only 1 time ); ADM with SMT treated group (the dos ageand method of ADM and SMT were similar to ADM treated group and SMT treated g roup, respectively).24 hour after of administration of the drugs, rats of all t he groups were killed.TBA method, DTNB method, nitrate reductase method, pyrogal lol autoxidation method and hemoglobin-oxidation method were used to determine the contents of lipid peroxide(LPO)and nitric oxide (NO), the activities of glut athione peroxidase (GPx) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in myocardium, respectiv ely. The level of nitrotyrosine (NT) was determined by immunohistochemical metho d in myocardium.Results SMT significantly reduced the contents of LPO and NO, the activity of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), the level of NT in myocardium (P0.05).Conclusion SMT can inhibit myocardial lipid peroxidation induced by ADM. The mechanism may be that SMT can selective ly inhibited the activity of iNOS in myocardium induced by ADM, reduce productio n of NO in myocardium, thereby reduce production of peroxynitrite and protect the activities of SOD and GPx in myocardium.
