摘要: The purpose of this study was to explore the interventional effects of folic acid on the heart damage caused by lead acetate exposure. Twenty-four 60-day-old male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into 4 groups with 6 rats in each group. The control group (C group) was normal rats; the lead exposure group (L group) rats drank 0.2% lead acetate solution freely for 14 days. The rats in the intervention group (T group) were given 0.2% lead acetate solution for 14 days, respectively, and 0.4 mg/kg BW folic acid solution was given to the rats by gavage on the 7th day of lead administration. The rats in the folic acid group (group E) were given 0.4 mg/kg BW folic acid solution by gavage. To weigh rat body weight and heart weight, calculate heart index, and observe the expression level of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2), heme oxygenase 1(HO-1), glucose-regulated protein 78/binding immunoglobulin protein (GRP78), and C/EBP-homologous protein (CHOP) by immunofluorescence method. The results showed that compared with group C, serum lead levels in group L and T were significantly increased (P < 0.05); superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) levels in group L were significantly decreased (P < 0.05), and malondialdehyde (MDA) content was significantly higher increased (P < 0.05), and the GSH-PX content in group T were significantly increased in group L (P < 0.05), and the MDA content in group T was significantly lower than that in group L (P < 0.05). Compared with group C, the expression of Nrf2, HO-1, GRP78, and CHOP in group L increased significantly, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Compared with the L group, the expression of Nrf2, HO-1, GRP78, and CHOP in the T group was reduced. Therefore, folic acid has a certain protective effect on the oxidative damage of lead-exposed rat heart tissue.
