Actividad de glutatión peroxidasa en bovinos lecheros a pastoreo correlacionada con la concentración sanguinea y plasmática de selenio

Abstract: RESUMEN -Con el objeto de validar una técnica para determinar la actividad sanguínea de glutatión peroxidasa (GSH-Px; EC 1.11.1.9) en el Laboratorio de Patología Clínica de la Universidad Austral de Chile y establecer la correlación entre su actividad y la concentración sanguínea y plasmática de selenio (Se) en bovinos a pastoreo en rebaños lecheros del sur de Chile, se tomaron 5-10 mL de sangre heparinizada a 112 vacas de ocho rebaños en la provincia de Valdivia. La actividad enzimática se analizó mediante un… Show more

“…Because of this, GSH-Px activity has been used as a biomarker to assess body Se status (Ceballos et al 1999). Indeed, this seleno--dependent enzyme is a component of cellular antioxidant defense mechanisms that removes potentially damaging lipid hydro-peroxides and hydrogen peroxides and protects the immune cells from oxidative stress-induced damage (Salman et al 2009).…”

“…The values of GSH-Px were regarded as deϐicient, marginal or adequate when the GSH-Px activity was lower than 60 U/g of hemoglobin (Hb), between 60 and 130 or higher than 130 U/g Hb, respectively (Ceballos & Wittwer 1996, Ceballos et al 1999.…”

“…Así, se ha señalado que la concentración de Se, en el forraje, guarda una relación directa con la actividad sanguínea de GSH-Px en bovinos a pastoreo (Ceballos et al, 1999). Por lo anterior, la actividad de GSH-Px en sangre de novillas, mantenidas en sistemas pastoriles, proporcionará un acercamiento al balance metabólico de Se en el animal.…”

“…Igualmente en Suramérica se han encontrado zonas con concentraciones deficitarias de Se en forrajes (Ceballos et al, 1999). En Colombia no hay información actualizada con respecto al contenido de oligoelementos en forrajes, pese a ello, se han observado concentraciones consideradas deficitarias en los pastos del país (Laredo & Cuesta, 1987), probablemente como reflejo de las características de los suelos colombianos (Malagón et al, 1995).…”

“…As a consequence, forages and crops grown on these soils provide inadequate dietary Se for grazing animals (Wichtel, 1998a). Providing insufficient Se in dairy cow rations results in lower than normal serum Se concentration and activity of the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase (GPx1; EC 1.11.1.9) in erythrocytes (Wichtel, 1998a;Ceballos et al, 1999). Therefore, the analysis of Se-containing proteins, such as GPx1, can give a useful indication of functional Se balance, as these selenoproteins are often a sensitive indicator of dietary Se consumption (Arthur, 1999).…”
