급성 카드뮴중독시 랏트의 고환조직내 Catalase 및 Superoxide Dismutase 활성도와의 양-반응관계 = Dose-Response Relationship between Catalase and Superoxide Dismutase Activity in Testes of Acutely Intoxicated Rats by Cadmium

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Dose-response relationship among blood cadmium concentrations, catalase and superoxide dismutase activities were studied with acutely intoxicated rats by cadmium. The Sprague-Dawley male rats to which single dose of $1{\sim}32mg/kg\;CdCl_2$ were administered into peritoneal cavity were sacrificed by decapitation at $3{\sim}36$ hours after the administration. Cadmium concentrations in blood increased significantly with dose of $CdCl_2$ administered and reached peak level at 3 hours later. Catalase activities in rats' testes were not correlated with esposure time elapsed after the administration in rats to which $1{\sim}2mg/kg\;of\;CdCl_2$ were administered, but they showed linear relationship with time in groups to which $4{\sim}32mg/kg\;of\;CdCl_2$ were administered. Cu, Zn-SOD activities in testes of acutely intoxicated rats by cadmium were not altered either by dosage or by time elapsed after the administration. Mn-SOD activities in the testes were also not influenced by dosage of $1{\sim}2mg/kg\;CdCl_2$, but remarkably inactivated by dosage of $4{\sim}32mg/kg\;CdCl_2$ with time elapsed after the administration. Neither catalase, Cu, Zn-SOD nor Mn-SOD activities of testes were correlated with blood cadmium concentrations in acutely intoxicated rats by cadmium.
