In this report, the superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities produced by these bacteria were measured, and the change of SOD and CAT activities by 20 keV N+ beam exposure was examined. Their activities were increased by N+ beam exposure from 8x 1014 ions/cm2 to 6x1015 ions/cm2.The treatment of H2O2 and [ CHC13 +CH3 CH2OH ] and the measurement of absorption spectrum showed that the increase in SOD activity was resulted from inducible activities of MnSOD in D. radiodurans AS1.633 by N+ beam exposure . These results suggested that this bacteria possess inducible defense mechanisms against the deleterious effects of oxidization.展开更多

The rabbits were equally divided into cyproheptadine (Cyp) treated group and control group. Blood samples 30 minutes after liquid and blood infusion and administration of Cyp (10 mg / kg) were collected from the carotid artery, and the plasma superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) content measured. The results showed that Cyp remarkebly enhanced the plasma SOD activity (2462 338 vs 1955- 596, P<0.01) and reduced MDA content (2.68- 0.24 vs 3.20-0.49, P<0.01). We believe that the in crease of O2 production plays an important role in the develop-ment of shock, the single blood and liquid infusion can not significantly improve the shock conditions. Scavenging oxygen free radicals and alleviating cellular damage and multiple or gan failure are the possible mechanisms of cyproheptadine anti-shock effect.展开更多
