目的:观察过量氟对小鼠睾丸中骨钙素(OCN)的影响及睾酮(T)水平的变化。方法:选取24只C57black6J(C57BL/6J)雄性小鼠,随机分为两组(正常组12只,氟干预组12只),正常组饮用蒸馏水,氟干预组饮用100mg/L氟化钠溶液,自由饮用3个月,制备氟中毒模型,采用免疫组化链霉菌抗生物素蛋白一过氧化物酶连结法(sP),定位检测小鼠睾丸组织中OCN的表达采用酶联免疫吸附法(ELISA),检测血清中OCN及T水平的变化。结果:氟干预组小鼠血清中OCN水平明显高于对照组(F=11.901,P=0.008),氟干预组小鼠T分泌量明显低于对照组睾酮(F=2.313,P=0.006),免疫组化结果显示氟干预组OCN表达在细胞膜和细胞质,且阳性表达强于对照组。结论:饮用100mg/L含氟水3个月能够导致雄性小鼠的T降低,睾丸中OCN水平表达升高。
Objective : To observe the influence of excessive fluoride on the levels of osteocalein and testosterone in the testis of the male mouse. Methods: Twenty-/our C57BIM6J male mice were equally randomized into a normal control and a fnorosis model group, the former fed on distilled water while the latter on a solution of sodium fluoride ( 100 rag/I,) in distilled water, both for 12 weeks. Then, the level of osteocalcin in the testis tissue was measured with the inununohistochemical streptavidin-peroxidase (SP) method and those of osteocalcin and testosterone in the serum deternfined by ELISA. Results : After 12 weeks of fluoride intervention, the level of serum osteoealcin was significantly higher in the fluorosis models than in the normal controls ( I68.05 ± 5. 321 vs [47.50 ± 5.731 pg/mL, F = I 1. 901, P = 0. 008), while that of testosterone markedly lower in the former than the latter group ( 18.07 ± 1.35 ] vs [12.94 ± 3.09 ] ng/mL, F = 2. 313, P = 0. 006). The results of inununohistochemical SP showed the expression of os- teocalcin in the tell membrane and cytoplasm of the fluorosis models, which was evidently higher than in the normal controls. Con- clusion : Twelve-week intake of 100 mg/L fluoride solution can decrease the level of testosterone and increase the expression of osleo- ealcin in the testis of the male mouse.
