After 48 h incubation, the suspension was cryopreserved for the determination of superoxide dismutase （SOD）, catalase （CAT）, glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px） activities, and malondialdehyde （MDA） content. The mRNA levels of SOD, CAT, and GSH-Px gene in cells were detected with Taqman fluorescent probe method. The results showed that the content of MDA and the activities and the mRNA levels of SOD of porcine skeletal muscle satellite cells were influenced by supplemented soybean isoflavone （P〈0.05） when adding 10-80 μmol L^-1 ISO-S or genistein in the medium. The MDA contents, SOD and CAT activities and their mRNA expression levels of porcine skeletal muscle cells responded quadratically （P〈 0.05） as the level of ISO-S or genistein increased. Pre-incubation of porcine skeletal muscle satellite cells with ISO-S or genistein at 10-40 pmol L-1 elevated the activities and the mRNA expression levels of SOD and CAT in cells concurrently and decreased the cellular content of MDA （P〈 0.05）. The results indicated that pre-incubation of ISO-S or genistein at 10- 40μmol L^-1 could improve the antioxidative capacity of porcine skeletal muscle satellite cells.展开更多

The response of crop antioxidant enzyme system is an early-warning indicator of environmental factors changes. Compared with raw wastewater and used fresh water as controls, this research studied peroxides （POD）, superoxide dismutase （SOD） activities and malondialdehyde （MDA） content in leaves from maize （Zea mays L.） and soybean （Phaseolus vulgaris L.） with pot culture under irrigating with reclaimed water which with secondary and third treatment. The results showed that secondary reclaimed water had some adverse effects on antioxidant system of maize in seedling stage, and the influence decreased in later stage of maize; effect of the third reclaimed water on antioxidant system of maize was not significant. Irrigation with reclaimed water has little influence on antioxidant system of soybean in seedling and reaping stage, but it could bring some oxidative stress in blossom stage. As a result, irrigating maize with second or third reclaimed water is safe to the growth of maize and soybean, but it is suggested that second reclaimed water should not be used in seedling stage of maize and reclaimed water should not be used in the second stage of soybean.展开更多
