Effects of sul foraphane on cystometric parameters in diabetic mice with bladder underacitvity / 医学研究生学报

ABSTRACT

Objective Little is known about the effects of antioxidant on the micturition function in diabetic cystopathy .In this study, we investigated the effects of antioxidant sulforaphane on bladder micturition function in diabetes mellitus ( DM)mice with bladder underactivity . Met hods We established DM models in mice by intraperitoneal injection of a single dose of streptozotocin (STZ)at 65 mg/kg and randomly divided them into three groups , sulforaphane treatment (n=10), vehicle treatment (n=10), and DM model (n=10), with another 10 normal healthy mice included as blank controls.At 24 weeks of the experiment, we obtained and analyzed such indexes of mice as the body weight , fasting blood glucose (FBG), 24-hour urine volume (24 h UV) and bladder wet weight ( BWW ) , results of cystometrography , and cystometric parameters including intercontraction interval ( ICI ) , maximum bladder pressure during micturition ( Pmax ) , maximum cystometric capacity (MCC), void volume (VV), post-void residual urine vol-ume (PVR) and residual urine rate (RUR). Results Compared with the blank controls , the DM models with bladder underactivity showed significantly increases in BWW ([67.96 ±2.35]mg), 24 h HU ([22.47 ±1.93]mL), MCC ([0.70 ±0.03]mL), VV (0[.23 ±0.01]mL), PVR ([0.49 ±0.02]mL), RUR ([70.10 ± 0.80]%), and ICI, but a remarkable decrease in Pmax .Sulforaphane treatment significantly reduced BWW ([576.9 ±2.41]mg), 24 h HU ([16.27 ±1.51] mL), MCC ([0.54 ±0.03]mL), PVR ([0.34 ±0.02]mL), RUR ([62.71 ±1.26]%), and ICI of the diabetic mice . Conclusion Sulforaphane could improve bladder micturition function in mice with STZ-induced DM , which might be related to its action mechanism of antioxidative stress damage .
