目的探讨维生素C(VC)对甲醛诱导胎鼠发育毒性的影响。方法应用体外全胚胎培养模型,观察100μg/mL VC对终浓度为9,27,81μmol/L甲醛诱导昆明种小鼠胚胎发育毒性的影响。结果与对照组比较,9μmol/L甲醛可使胚胎头长、颅臀长、谷胱甘肽(GSH)、丙二醛(MDA)含量分别升高到(1.66±0.21),(3.48±0.40)mm,(47.70±2.12)mg/(g.prot),(4.27±0.62)nmol/(mg.prot),差异有统计学意义(P〈0.05) 27μmol/L甲醛使胚胎脏层卵黄囊(VYS)直径、头长、颅臀长、体节数、GSH含量分别下降到(4.35±0.65),(1.48±0.30),(3.19±0.43)mm,(25.2±1.2)对,(40.25±4.38)mg/(g.prot),MDA含量升高到(6.29±0.47)nmol/(mg.prot),与对照组比较,差异有统计学意义(P〈0.05) VC能明显改善上述指标,但与对照组比较差异无统计学意义(P〈0.01) VC不能明显改善81μmol/L甲醛诱导的毒性损伤。结论VC对一定剂量范围内的甲醛胚胎毒性具有明显抑制作用。
Objective To observe the inhibitive effect of vitamin C(VC) on embryonic development toxicity induced by formaldehyde in mice. Methods Kunming mice embryos were incubated together with formaldehyde ( 9, 27, and 81 μmol/L) and VC( 100 μg/mL) ,respectively, with whole embryo culture method. The development of mice embryos was then assessed. Results When the concentration of formaldehyde was 9μmol/L, the increases of head lengh ( 1.66 ± 0.21 mm), cranial arm length ( 3.48 ± 0. 40mm ), glutathione (GSH) ( 47.70 ± 2. 12mg/g prot ) and malonaldehyde (MDA) (4. 27 ±0. 62nmol/mg · prot) were significantly different(P 〈0. 05) from those of the control group. When the concentration was 27 μmol/L, the increases of embryo visceral yolk sac (VYS) diameter( 4. 35 ± 0. 65mm), head lengh ( 1. 48 ±0. 30 mm), cranial arm length ( 3. 19 ± 0. 43mm ), number of arthromera pairs ( 25. 2 ± 1.2 ) and GSH (40. 25 ±4. 38mg/g · prot) and the decrease of MDA(6. 29 ±0. 47nmol/mg· prot) were observed with significant differences ( P 〈 0. 05 ) compared with that of the control group. VC could improve the indexes but there was no significant difference between the control group and the VC group (P 〉 0. 05 ). The toxic injury induced by formaldehyde (81 μmol/L) could not be improved with VC significantly. Conclusion VC inhibits embryonic development toxicity induced by certain dose of formaldehyde.
