Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The copper-superoxide dismutase (Cu-SOD) can not play an effective role in free radical-scavenging in the process of hypoxia or reaeration because of blood-brain barrier, whether the treating effect can be enhanced by chitosan nanoparticles is uncertain. OBJECTIVE: To observe the ability of chitosan nanoparticles loaded the Cu-SOD plasmid on free radical-scavenging in ischemia-reperfusion brain tissue. DESIGN: An observation experiment. MATERIALS: The Cu-SOD plasmid was provided by the Center Laboratory of Tangdu Hospital, Forth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA. A total of 36 rats were prepared ischemia-reperfusion models, and randomly divided into the control, physiological saline (PS) plus Cu-SOD plasmid and chitosan nanoparticles loaded the Cu-SOD plasmid groups. METHODS: The chitosan nanoparticles were prepared by cross-linking method. The Cu-SOD plasmid was absorbed to chitosan nanoparticles by electrostaficforces, mixed the 50.0 ?L nanoparticles with 10.0, 25.0, 50.0, 75.0, 100.0 ?L SOD plasmid respectively. The electrophoretic analysis was used to examine the combination condition of the chitosan nanoparticles with superoxide dismutase plasmid, and the embedding rate was calculated with ultraviolet spectrophotometer. Chitosan nanoparticles, SOD and Cu-SOD plasmid were infused into the rat after brain ischemia-reperfusion. Further more, to detect the content of malondialdehyde and superoxide dismutase in brain tissues. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The combination condition of the chitosan nanoparticles with superoxide dismutase plasmid, and the activity of malondialdehyde (MDA) and SOD were measured. RESULTS: Chitosan nanoparticles and superoxide dismutase in volume ratio of 50: 75 could harvest the largest embedding rate with 100%, which had good protective effect on DNA. The contents of MDA in brain tissues of the Chitosan nanoparticles loaded the Cu-SOD plasmid group were obvious lower than that of the control (P
