Abstract:
:We investigated whether oxidant status and antioxidant enzyme activities during ageing of mouse brain are regulated in sex-dependent manner. In the homogenate from the brain of 1, 4, 10 and 18 months old male and female CBA mice, lipid peroxidation (LPO), total superoxide dismutase (tSOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (Gpx) were determined. LPO was age- and sex-related, favoring males over females throughout the lifespan with the peak in both sexes at 10 months of age. Throughout ageing, no difference in tSOD activity between male and female brains was observed, except in immature 1 month old mice. Gender-related difference in Gpx activity was observed, with higher level in females comparing to males, reaching statistical significance in senescent (18 months old) animals. CAT activity was drastically changed with ageing in both the male and female brain. We found different age associated trends in CAT activity in males and females: decreased with age in males and increased with age in females. Taken together, the present findings indicate that brains of female mice have lower oxidant and higher antioxidant capacity mostly related to CAT and to a lesser extent to Gpx activity.
