摘要: 目的: 探讨阿特拉津(ATR)对大鼠多巴胺神经元代谢途径中相关因子表达的影响及多巴胺神经元的损伤机制。方法: 清洁级成年雄性SD大鼠68只,随机分为4组,即对照组和ATR 50、100、200 mg/kg剂量染毒组,每组17只。染毒组大鼠经口灌胃ATR 28 d,取大鼠脑组织,分别采用实时荧光定量PCR(qPCR)和免疫组化检测黑质内酪氨酸羟化酶(TH)与核受体相关因子1(Nurr1) mRNA和蛋白表达量的变化,采用 SPSS 17.0进行统计学分析。结果: qPCR结果显示,用50、100和200 mg/kg浓度的ATR染毒的大鼠,其黑质内TH和Nurr1 mRNA表达量与对照组比较明显减少(P<0.05),且存在剂量反应关系。免疫组化结果显示ATR染毒组大鼠黑质中Nurr1、TH蛋白与对照组比较显著降低(P<0.05)。结论: ATR可能通过影响多巴胺神经元代谢途径中的相关酶及其调控酶形成的基因致大鼠多巴胺神经元损伤。

Abstract: OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the effects of atrazine(ATR) exposure in Sprague Dawley rat on the dopaminergic system. METHODS: Healthy adult male SD rats were randomly divided into four groups,control and ATR-dose (50,100,200 mg/kg) groups. Rats were treated orally with ATR for 28 d. The mRNA and protein expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and nuclear receptor-related factor 1 (Nurr1) were examined in samples of the substantia nigra by fluorescence PCR and immunohistochemistry. We use SPSS 17.0 to analyse the experimental results. RESULTS: qPCR results showed that with 50,100 and 200 mg/kg concentration of ATR exposure,rat substantia nigra TH and Nurr1 mRNA expression was significantly reduced compared with control group (P<0.05),and there was a dose-response relationship. Immunohistochemistry showed that substantia nigra Nurr1 and TH proteins in treated-rats were significantly lower than those among the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The reduction of Nurr1 and TH suggests that ATR may influence the metabolism of dopamine neurons in dopaminergic neuron injury.
