In the past, investigators have successfully used iron chelators to mitigate the cardiotoxicity of doxorubicin (DOX), a widely used anticancer drug that induces reactive oxygen species (ROS), oxidative damage, and apoptosis. Although intracellular iron plays a critical role in initiating DOX-induced apoptosis, the molecular mechanism(s) that link iron, ROS, and apoptosis are still unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that apoptosis results from the exposure of bovine aortic endothelial cells to DOX and that the apoptotic cell death is accompanied by a significant increase in cellular iron ((55)Fe) uptake and activation of iron regulatory protein-1. Furthermore, DOX-induced iron uptake was shown to be mediated by the transferrin receptor (TfR)-dependent mechanism. Treatment with the anti-TfR antibody (IgA class) dramatically inhibited DOX-induced apoptosis, iron uptake, and intracellular oxidant formation as measured by fluorescence using dichlorodihydrofluorescein. Treatment with cell-permeable iron chelators and ROS scavengers inhibited DOX-induced cellular (55)Fe uptake, ROS formation, and apoptosis. Based on these findings, we conclude that DOX-induced iron signaling is regulated by the cell surface TfR expression, intracellular oxidant levels, and iron regulatory proteins. The implications of TfR-dependent iron transport in oxidant-induced apoptosis in endothelial cells are discussed. 相似文献

The cytoprotective effects of redox-active metalloporphyrins (e.g., FeTBAP and MnTBAP) were generally attributed to their ability to scavenge reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. In this study, we evaluated the pro- and antiapoptotic potentials of different metalloporphyrins containing iron, cobalt, zinc, and manganese in adult rat cardiomyocytes exposed to doxorubicin (DOX), an anticancer drug that forms superoxide and hydrogen peroxide via redox-cycling of DOX semiquinone in the presence of molecular oxygen. We used electron spin resonance/spin trapping and cytochrome c reduction to assess the scavenging of superoxide anion by metalloporphyrins. Superoxide anion was effectively scavenged by FeTBAP and MnTBAP but not by CoTBAP and ZnTBAP. FeTBAP efficiently scavenged H(2)O(2). Both CoTBAP and FeTBAP inhibited DOX-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. These findings implicate that mechanisms other than oxy-radical scavenging may account for their antiapoptotic property. In addition, CoTBAP and FeTBAP induced heme oxygenase-1 more potently than did MnTBAP and ZnTBAP. Inhibition of heme oxygenase abolished the protective effect of CoTBAP and reduced the protection by FeTBAP against DOX-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. We propose that metalloporphyrins can inhibit apoptosis either by inducing heme oxygenase-1 and antiapoptotic protein signaling or by scavenging reactive oxygen species. 相似文献

A series of novel conjugates of 4-aza-2,3-didehydropodophyllotoxins (11a-w) were synthesized by a straightforward one-step multicomponent synthesis that demonstrated cytotoxicity against five human cancer cell lines (breast, oral, colon, lung and ovarian). All the twenty three compounds (11a-w) have been examined for the inhibition of tubulin polymerization. Among these compounds, 11a, 11k and 11p exhibited inhibition of polymerization tubulin comparable to podophyllotoxin apart from disruption of microtubule organization within the cells. Flow cytometric analysis showed that these compounds (11a, 11k and 11p) arrested the cell cycle in the G2/M phase of cell cycle leading to caspase-3 dependent apoptotic cell death. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Malignant small bowel tumors are very rare and leiomyosarcoma accounts for less than 15% of the cases. Management of these tumors is challenging in view of nonspecific symptoms, unusual presentation and high incidence of metastasis. In this case report, an unusual presentation of jejunal sarcoma and management of liver metastasis with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is discussed. CASE PRESENTATION: A 45-year-old male presented with anemia and features of small bowel obstruction. Operative findings revealed a mass lesion in jejunum with intussusception of proximal loop. Resection of bowel mass was performed. Histopathological findings were suggestive of leiomyosarcoma. After 3-years of follow-up, the patient developed recurrence in infracolic omentum and a liver metastasis. The omental mass was resected and liver lesion was managed with radiofrequency ablation. CONCLUSION: Jejunal leiomyosarcoma is a rare variety of malignant small bowel tumor and a clinical presentation with intussusception is unusual. We suggest that an aggressive management approach using a combination of surgery and a newer technique like RFA can be attempted in patients with limited metastatic spread to liver to prolong the long-term survival in a subset of patients. 相似文献

Sphingolipid ceramide (N-acetylsphingosine), a bioactive second messenger lipid, was shown to activate reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial oxidative damage, and apoptosis in neuronal and vascular cells. The proapoptotic effects of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, hypoxia, and chemotherapeutic drugs were attributed to increased ceramide formation. Here we investigated the protective role of nitric oxide (.NO) during hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2))-mediated transferrin receptor (TfR)-dependent iron signaling and apoptosis in C(2)-ceramide (C(2)-cer)-treated bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs). Addition of C(2)-cer (5-20 microm) to BAECs enhanced .NO generation. However, at higher concentrations of C(2)-cer (> or =20 microm), .NO generation did not increase proportionately. C(2)-cer (20-50 microm) also resulted in H(2)O(2)-mediated dichlorodihydrofluorescein oxidation, reduced glutathione depletion, aconitase inactivation, TfR overexpression, TfR-dependent uptake of (55)Fe, release of cytochrome c from mitochondria into cytosol, caspase-3 activation, and DNA fragmentation. N(w)-Nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME), a nonspecific inhibitor of nitricoxide synthases, augmented these effects in BAECs at much lower (i.e. nonapoptotic) concentrations of C(2)-cer. The 26 S proteasomal activity in BAECs was slightly elevated at lower concentrations of C(2)-cer (< or =10 microm) but was greatly suppressed at higher concentrations (>10 microm). Intracellular scavengers of H(2)O(2), cell-permeable iron chelators, anti-TfR receptor antibody, or mitochondria-targeted antioxidant greatly abrogated C(2)-cer- and/or l-NAME-induced oxidative damage, iron signaling, and apoptosis. We conclude that C(2)-cer-induced H(2)O(2) and TfR-dependent iron signaling are responsible for its prooxidant and proapoptotic effects and that .NO exerts an antioxidative and cytoprotective role. 相似文献

In this mini-review, oxidant-induced transferrin receptor-mediated iron-signaling and apoptosis are described in endothelial and neuronal cells exposed to a variety of oxidative stresses. The role of nitric oxide and nitration in the regulation of iron homeostasis and oxidant-induced apoptosis is described. The interrelationship between oxidative stress, iron-signaling, and nitric oxide-dependent proteasomal function provides a rational mechanism that connects both oxidative and nitrative modifications. 相似文献

1. Rapid expansion and intensification of anthropogenic activities in the 20th century has caused profound changes in freshwater assemblages. Unfortunately, knowledge of the extent and causes of species loss (SL) is limited due to the lack of reliable historical data. An unusual data set allows us to compare changes in the most sensitive of aquatic insect orders, the Plecoptera, at some 170 locations in the Czech Republic between two time periods, 1955–1960 and 2006–2010. Historical data (1890–1911) on assemblages of six lowland rivers allow us to infer even earlier changes. 2. Regional stonefly diversity decreased in the first half of the 20th century. Streams at lower altitudes lost a substantial number of species, which were never recovered. In the second half of the century, large‐scale anthropogenic pressure caused SL in all habitats, leading to a dissimilarity of contemporary and previous assemblages. The greatest changes were found at sites affected by organic pollution and a mixture of organic pollution and channelisation or impoundment. Colonisation of new habitats was observed in only three of the 80 species evaluated. 3. Species of moderate habitat specialisation and tolerance to organic pollution were most likely to be lost. Those with narrow specialisations in protected habitats were present in both historical and contemporary collections. 4. Contemporary assemblages are the consequence of more than a 100 years of anthropogenic impacts. In particular, streams at lower altitude and draining intensively exploited landscapes host a mere fragment of the original species complement. Most stonefly species are less frequently present than before, although their assemblages remain almost intact in near‐natural mountain streams. Our analyses demonstrate dramatic restriction of species ranges and, in some cases, apparent changes in altitudinal preference throughout the area. 相似文献
