Abstract:

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of total flavonoids of Spatholobus suberectus Dunn (TFSD) on porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) induced oxidative stress in mice spleen.70 Kunming mice were divided into 7 groups:Control group, TFSD group (100 mg/(kg·BW)), PCV2 group, PCV2+vitamin C (VC) group, and PCV2+various concentrations of TFSD groups (25, 50 and 100 mg/(kg·BW)). Mice were continuously treated with PCV2 via both intragastric administration and intraperitoneal injection for 3 d to establish oxidative stress models. From the 4th to 6th day, mice were intragastric administrated with saline, VC or TFSD, respectively, according to the grouping method. At the 7th day, the activities of xanthine oxidase (XOD), myeloperoxidase (MPO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), the levels of glutathione (GSH) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG), and the ratio of GSH to GSSG in the mice spleen were analyzed. The results showed that PCV2 infection significantly upregulated the XOD and MPO activities and GSSG content(P <0.05), and dramatically downregulated the SOD activity, GSH level and the ratio of GSH to GSSG (P <0.05) in the mice spleen.Compared to PCV2 group, the SOD activity, GSH content and the ratio of GSH to GSSG in mice treated with TFSD were significantly increased (P <0.05), while the activities of XOD and MPO and the level of GSSG were significantly decreased (P <0.05), showing better performance in the inhibition of PCV2 induced changes of oxidative stress associated enzyme activities and moledule levels than VC.In conclusion,TFSD had regulative effect on the oxidative stress induced by PCV2 in mouse spleen.
