We have earlier shown that nicotinamide (NIC) and nicotinic acid (NiA) can induce defence-related metabolism in plant cells; e.g. increase the level of glutathione. Here we investigated if NIC and NiA could increase the metal tolerance in metal sensitive clones of Salix viminalis and whether this would be mediated via increased glutathione level. Salix clones, sensitive or tolerant to zinc (Zn), copper (Cu) and cadmium (Cd) were grown in the presence of heavy metals (Cd, Cu or Zn) or NIC and NiA as well as in combination. In addition, the influence of N-acetyl-cystein (NAC) and l-2-oxothiazolidine 4-carboxylate (OTC), stimulators of reduced glutathione (GSH) biosynthesis, and the glutathione biosynthesis inhibitor buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) was analysed. Tolerance was measured as effects on root and shoot dry weight, and the glutathione and metal concentrations in the tissues were analysed. Results showed that NIC and NiA decreased the toxic effects of Cd, Cu and Zn on growth significantly in sensitive clones, but also to some extent in tolerant clones. However, the glutathione level and metal concentration did not change by NIC or NiA addition. Treatment with NAC, OTC or BSO did not per se influence the sensitivity to Cd, although the glutathione level increased in the presence of NAC and OTC and decreased in response to BSO. The results suggest that NIC and NiA increased the defence against heavy metals but not via glutathione formation per se. 相似文献

As we reported previously, GADD153 is upregulated in colon cancer cells exposed to curcumin. In the present study, we ascertained the involvement of glutathione and certain sulfhydryl enzymes associated with signal transduction in mediating the effect of curcumin on GADD153. Curcumin-induced GADD153 gene upregulation was attenuated by reduced glutathione (GSH) or N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and potentiated by the glutathione synthesis inhibitor, L-buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO). Additionally, GSH and NAC decreased the intracellular content of curcumin. Conversely, curcumin decreased intracellular glutathione and also increased the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells, but either GSH or NAC prevented both of these effects of curcumin. In affecting the thiol redox status, curcumin caused activation of certain sulfhydryl enzymes involved in signal transduction linked to GADD153 expression. Curcumin increased the expression of the phosphorylated forms of PTK, PDK1, and PKC-delta, which was attenuated by either GSH or NAC and potentiated by BSO. Furthermore, selective inhibitors of PI3K and PKC-delta attenuated curcumin-induced GADD153 upregulation. Collectively, these findings suggest that a regulatory thiol redox-sensitive signaling cascade exists in the molecular pathway leading to induction of GADD153 expression as caused by curcumin. 相似文献

Hydroquinone (HQ) is a chemical used as a reducing agent, antioxidant, polymerization inhibitor, and chemical intermediate. It has a minor use as a bleaching agent in dermatologic preparations. HQ also occurs as a main metabolite of benzene. In the present study, HQ-induced apoptosis was evaluated by cell morphology changes, determination of phosphatidylserine (PS) externalization and analysis of sub-G1 cells. The effect of HQ on intracellular thiol concentration, including glutathione and protein thiol, and the effect of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) pretreatment on HQ-induced apoptosis were investigated. The results showed that HQ was able to induce typical apoptosis in HEK293 cells (human embryonic kidney cells) in a dose-dependent manner. Intracellular thiol, including glutathione and protein thiol, was decreased following treatment with HQ. NAC, a precursor of intracellular GSH synthesis, significantly inhibited HQ-induced apoptosis. However, BSO, a specific inhibitor of intracellular GSH synthesis, enhanced HQ-induced apoptosis significantly. Taken together, the present study demonstrates that HQ is able to induce apoptosis in HEK293 cells, most probably through depletion of intracellular thiol. The results also suggest that, at least in HEK293 cells, the control of intracellular redox homeostasis has a central role in the regulation of cell death induced by HQ. 相似文献

In mammalian cells, a growing body of evidence indicates a relationship between cellular redox balance and tyrosine kinase-mediated cell signalling. The phosphorylative cascade activated by extracellular signals is inhibited by reducing conditions and stimulated by oxidative stress, in particular at the level of mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation. The mussel Mytilus typically shows variations in antioxidant defence systems and decreases in glutathione content in response to both natural and contaminant environmental stressors. In isolated mussel digestive gland cells, both epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) have been recently demonstrated to activate tyrosine kinase receptors leading to multiple responses; among these, stimulation of the key glycolytic enzymes phosphofructokinase (PFK) and pyruvate kinase (PK). The present study investigates the possible relationship between the tyrosine kinase-mediated metabolic effects of growth factors and cellular redox balance in mussel cells. The results demonstrate that the effects of growth factors on glycolytic enzymes were abolished by cell pretreatment with the antioxidant N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC). On the other hand, in cells where the glutathione content and synthesis were lowered either in vitro (by cell pretreatment with buthionine sulfoximine (BSO)), or in vivo (by mussel exposure to Cu2+) the metabolic effects of growth factors were unaffected. Moreover, the results show that, in both control and glutathione-depleted cells, growth factors can also regulate the level of glutathione apparently by modulating, via phosphorylative mechanisms involving MAPK activation, the activity of γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase (GCS), the rate limiting enzyme in GSH biosynthesis. Overall, this study extends the hypothesis that cell signalling is intimately related to redox balance in marine invertebrate cells. 相似文献

Differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to hepatocytes‐like cells is associated with alteration in the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant defense system. Here, we report the role of glutathione in the functions of hepatocytes derived from MSCs. The stem cells undergoing differentiation were treated with glutathione modifiers [buthionine sulfoxide (BSO) or N‐acetyl cysteine (NAC)], and hepatocytes were collected on day 14 of differentiation and analysed for their biological and metabolic functions. Differentiation process has been performed in presence of glutathione modifiers viz. BSO and NAC. Depending on the level of cellular glutathione, the proliferation rate of MSCs was affected. Glutathione depletion by BSO resulted in increased levels of albumin and ROS in hepatocytes. Whereas, albumin and ROS were inhibited in cells treated with glutathione precursor (NAC). The metabolic function of hepatocytes was elevated in BSO‐treated cells as judged by increased urea, transferrin, albumin, alanine transaminase and aspartate transaminase secretions in the media. However, the metabolic activity of the hepatocytes was inhibited when glutathione was increased by NAC. We conclude that the efficiency of metabolic function of hepatocytes is inversely related to the levels of cellular glutathione. These data may suggest a novel role of glutathione in regulation of metabolic function of hepatocytes. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The modifications of intracellular redox balance leads to important cellular changes in many cell types. Here, a causal relationship
among redox state, granulocytic differentiation induced by all-trans retinoic acid (RA) or dibutyryl cAMP (dbcAMP) and apoptosis have been studied in the human acute promyelocytic leukaemia
HL-60 cells. The modulation of intracellular reactive oxygen species levels by d, l-buthionine-(S, R) sulfoximide (BSO), and n-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) caused inducer- and time-dependent or stage-specific effects on HL-60 cell growth inhibition, differentiation
and subsequent apoptosis. The presence of BSO during the commitment stage suppressed RA—but not dbcAMP-mediated differentiation,
while NAC inhibited both. BSO alone and in combination with RA or dbcAMP-induced apoptosis, which was prevented by NAC in
dbcAMP—but not in RA-treated cells. Using protein kinase C inhibitor, calphostin C, cross-talk effects between the intracellular
redox state and PKC signalling was identified by demonstrating inducer-dependent changes in cell differentiation or apoptosis,
which were associated with the changes in DNA-NF-κB binding activity. These observations suggest a critical role of redox
state in determining HL-60 cell behaviour and provide new insights into the complex effects of redox perturbations on the
intracellular signalling network via the involvement of PKC and NF-κB. 相似文献

In order to assess cigarette smoke-induced oxidative damage to intact cells, an assay was developed to measure cell detachment and protection. Due to the complex nature of cigarette smoke, which contains molecules that can interfere with conventional spectrophotometric and fluorometric biochemical assays, transformed rabbit corneal cells were radiolabeled with tritiated thymidine and then subjected to direct stream smoke. As a result, cell damage in response to the smoke from only two cigarettes could be measured in a time-dependent manner. When cells were prelabeled with N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), a substrate for glutathione synthesis, a significant reduction in damage was measured. Additionally, when buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), an inhibitor of glutathione synthesis, was incubated with cells, a reduction in the effectiveness of NAC was observed, although NAC still retained some activity. Furthermore, vitamin E conferred no protection to cells in this system nor was NAC active in a separate assay that appears to favor peroxyl radical generation. From these results we conclude that cigarette smoke damage can easily be determined at the cellular level with this technique and that NAC acted to prevent this damage in two ways: first, as glutathione precursor and, secondly, as an antioxidant capable of scavenging non-peroxyl radicals. 相似文献

Whey protein, particularly the alpha-lactalbumin fraction, are rich in cysteine (cys) and could therefore favor postprandial glucose homeostasis by a glutathione-mediated effect. This work investigates the effects of the ingestion of an alpha-lactalbumin-rich whey concentrate (alpha-LAC) during a high-sucrose (HS) meal on postprandial glucose homeostasis in healthy rats. In the first experiment, rats received an HS meal containing 14% protein, in which the protein source was either alpha-LAC (HS(a)) or total milk proteins, alone (HS(0)) or supplemented with 17 mg (HS(1)) or 59 mg (HS(2)) of N-acetylcysteine (NAC). This resulted in a total cys content 3.6-fold higher in the HS(1) and HS(a) meals and 12-fold higher in the HS(2) meal, when compared to the HS(0) meal. Postprandial parameters were monitored for 3 h after ingestion of the meal. The same measurements were performed on rats injected with 4 mmol/kg of buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), a specific inhibitor of glutathione synthesis. Increasing the meal's cys content dose-dependently reduced both postprandial glucose and insulin (P<.05). The inhibition of glutathione synthesis with BSO injection abrogated the beneficial effects of NAC supplementation on postprandial glucose response but did not affect those of alpha-LAC. These results show that (1) the substitution of alpha-LAC for total milk protein reduces glucose response, as does the addition of a cys donor to the meal, (2) but contrary to those of a simple cys donor, the beneficial effects of alpha-LAC are not entirely mediated by glutathione synthesis, suggesting additional mechanisms. 相似文献

Pyrrolizidine alkaloid (PA) clivorine, isolated from traditional Chinese medicinal plant Ligularia hodgsonii Hook, has been shown to induce apoptosis in hepatocytes via mitochondrial‐mediated apoptotic pathway in our previous research. The present study was designed to observe the protection of N‐acetyl‐cysteine (NAC) on clivorine‐induced hepatocytes apoptosis. Our results showed that 5 mM NAC significantly reversed clivorine‐induced cytotoxicity via MTT and Trypan Blue staining assay. DNA apoptotic fragmentation analysis and Western‐blot results showed that NAC decreased clivorine‐induced apoptotic DNA ladder and caspase‐3 activation. Further results showed that NAC inhibited clivorine‐induced Bcl‐xL decrease, mitochondrial cytochrome c release and caspase‐9 activation. Intracellular glutathione (GSH) is an important ubiquitous redox‐active reducing sulfhydryl (? SH) tripeptide, and our results showed that clivorine (50 µM) decreased cellular GSH amounts and the ratio of GSH/GSSG in the time‐dependent manner, while 5 mM NAC obviously reversed this depletion. Further results showed that GSH synthesis inhibitor BSO augmented clivorine‐induced cytotoxicity, while exogenous GSH reversed its cytotoxicity on hepatocytes. Clivorine (50 µM) significantly induced cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. Further results showed that 50 µM Clivorine decreased glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity and increased glutathione S transferase (GST) activity, which are both GSH‐related antioxidant enzymes. Thioredoxin‐1 (Trx) is also a ubiquitous redox‐active reducing (? SH) protein, and clivorine (50 µM) decreased cellular expression of Trx in a time‐dependent manner, while 5 mM NAC reversed this decrease. Taken together, our results demonstrate that the protection of NAC is major via maintaining cellular reduced environment and thus prevents clivorine‐induced mitochondrial‐mediated hepatocytes apoptosis.

Cigarette smoke, the major risk factor for the development of emphysema, contains over 4,700 chemical compounds, including free radicals and other oxidants (10(14)/puff). An imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants has been proposed in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Inhibition of repair processes has been suggested to be one pathway contributing to the development of emphysema. We hypothesized that cigarette smoke inhibition of repair might result from a shift of the oxidant/antioxidant balance in favor of oxidants. To evaluate this hypothesis, N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), which serves as a substrate for glutathione (GSH) production, and buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), which inhibits GSH production, were incubated in the presence and absence of cigarette smoke extract (CSE) with fibroblasts in three-dimensional collagen gels. Neither agent alone altered gel contraction. CSE inhibition of gel contraction, however, was mitigated by NAC and potentiated by BSO. Parallel effects were observed on cigarette smoke inhibition of fibronectin production and mRNA expression as well as by changes in intracellular GSH content. Pretreatment of fibroblasts with NAC or BSO resulted in similar effects, suggesting that neither agent was acting directly on smoke but, rather, was altering cellular response to smoke. In conclusion, smoke inhibition of fibroblast repair, as reflected by collagen gel contraction and fibronectin production, may be modulated by intracellular GSH levels. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Many teratogens induce oxidative stress, altering redox status and redox signaling; this has led to the suggestion that developmental toxicants act by disturbing redox status. The goal of these studies was to determine the consequences of altering glutathione homeostasis during organogenesis on embryo development, total DNA methylation, and activator protein-1 (AP-1) DNA binding activity and gene expression. METHODS: Gestational day 10.5 rat embryos were cultured in vitro for up to 44 hour in the presence of L-buthionine-S,R-sulfoximine (BSO), an irreversible inhibitor of gamma-glutamyl-cysteine synthetase, the rate limiting step in glutathione biosynthesis. Effects of BSO on total, oxidized and reduced glutathione, embryo development, DNA methylation, AP-1 DNA binding activity and gene expression were investigated. RESULTS: Significant depletion of glutathione by BSO was first noted at 6 hr in the embryo and at 3 hr in the yolk sac; total glutathione in the conceptus was depleted to the same extent after treatment with either 0.1 or 1.0 mM BSO. Exposure to 0.1 mM BSO did not cause a significant increase in embryotoxicity, although some impairment of growth and development was observed. In contrast, exposure to 1.0 mM BSO severely inhibited growth and development, significantly increasing the incidence of swollen hindbrains and of blebs in the forebrain, limb and maxillary regions. No significant treatment-related differences in total DNA methylation were observed. Interestingly, AP-1 DNA binding activity was similar in control and 0.1 mM BSO-treated conceptuses; however, exposure to 1.0 mM BSO increased AP-1 DNA binding at 6, 24, and 44 hr. The expression of several AP-1 family genes and of gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase was induced in embryos cultured with 1.0 mM BSO. CONCLUSION: Exposure of embryos in vitro to BSO at a concentration that was embryotoxic induced prolonged AP-1 DNA binding activity and altered gene expression. These data suggest that AP-1 induction may serve as a biomarker of embryo stress. 相似文献

BACKGROUNDCellular metabolism regulates stemness in health and disease. A reduced redox state is essential for self-renewal of normal and cancer stem cells (CSCs). However, while stem cells rely on glycolysis, different CSCs, including pancreatic CSCs, favor mitochondrial metabolism as their dominant energy-producing pathway. This suggests that powerful antioxidant networks must be in place to detoxify mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and maintain stemness in oxidative CSCs. Since glutathione metabolism is critical for normal stem cell function and CSCs from breast, liver and gastric cancer show increased glutathione content, we hypothesized that pancreatic CSCs also rely on this pathway for ROS detoxification.AIMTo investigate the role of glutathione metabolism in pancreatic CSCs.METHODSPrimary pancreatic cancer cells of patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) were cultured in adherent or CSC-enriching sphere conditions to determine the role of glutathione metabolism in stemness. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to validate RNAseq results involving glutathione metabolism genes in adherent vs spheres, as well as the expression of pluripotency-related genes following treatment. Public TCGA and GTEx RNAseq data from pancreatic cancer vs normal tissue samples were analyzed using the webserver GEPIA2. The glutathione-sensitive fluorescent probe monochlorobimane was used to determine glutathione content by fluorimetry or flow cytometry. Pharmacological inhibitors of glutathione synthesis and recycling [buthionine-sulfoximine (BSO) and 6-Aminonicotinamide (6-AN), respectively] were used to investigate the impact of glutathione depletion on CSC-enriched cultures. Staining with propidium iodide (cell cycle), Annexin-V (apoptosis) and CD133 (CSC content) were determined by flow cytometry. Self-renewal was assessed by sphere formation assay and response to gemcitabine treatment was used as a readout for chemoresistance.RESULTSAnalysis of our previously published RNAseq dataset E-MTAB-3808 revealed up-regulation of genes involved in the KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) Pathway Glutathione Metabolism in CSC-enriched cultures compared to their differentiated counterparts. Consistently, in pancreatic cancer patient samples the expression of most of these up-regulated genes positively correlated with a stemness signature defined by NANOG, KLF4, SOX2 and OCT4 expression (P < 10-5). Moreover, 3 of the upregulated genes (MGST1, GPX8, GCCT) were associated with reduced disease-free survival in patients [Hazard ratio (HR) 2.2-2.5; P = 0.03-0.0054], suggesting a critical role for this pathway in pancreatic cancer progression. CSC-enriched sphere cultures also showed increased expression of different glutathione metabolism-related genes, as well as enhanced glutathione content in its reduced form (GSH). Glutathione depletion with BSO induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in spheres, and diminished the expression of stemness genes. Moreover, treatment with either BSO or the glutathione recycling inhibitor 6-AN inhibited self-renewal and the expression of the CSC marker CD133. GSH content in spheres positively correlated with intrinsic resistance to gemcitabine treatment in different PDXs r = 0.96, P = 5.8 × 1011). Additionally, CD133+ cells accumulated GSH in response to gemcitabine, which was abrogated by BSO treatment (P < 0.05). Combined treatment with BSO and gemcitabine-induced apoptosis in CD133+ cells to levels comparable to CD133- cells and significantly diminished self-renewal (P < 0.05), suggesting that chemoresistance of CSCs is partially dependent on GSH metabolism.CONCLUSIONOur data suggest that pancreatic CSCs depend on glutathione metabolism. Pharmacological targeting of this pathway showed that high GSH content is essential to maintain CSC functionality in terms of self-renewal and chemoresistance. 相似文献

A comparison of cell cycle phase distribution of 3T3 cells and their transformants 3T3SV40 treated with different substances changing the intracellular level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been made. In this study the following glutathione synthesis modulating agents were tested: two precursors of intracellular glutathione, antioxidant N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) (-)-2-oxo-4-thiazolidine-carboxylic acid (OTZ), and inhibitor of glutathione synthesis, DL-buthionine-S, R-sulfoximine (BSO). It has been shown that both NAC (10-20 mM) and OTZ (20 mM) decreased the intracellular level of ROS in both cell lines. OTZ was more potent than NAC. However, only NAC caused changes in cell cycle progression of both cell types in dose-dependent manner. These changes differed in 3T3 and 3T3SV40 cells. Flow cytometric analysis of cell cycle phase distribution indicated that NAC (20 mM) blocked cell cycle in the G1 phase. The G1--arrest was completely reversible after removal of NAC from the medium. NAC (10-20 mM) caused a decrease in S and G2/M phases of transformants 3T3SV40. Moreover, a part of the population died apoptoticaly. Different mechanisms of NAC effect on normal and transformed cells are discussed. It is suggested that there is no strong correlation between cell cycle progression and intracellular level of ROS. 相似文献

Estrogen deficiency causes osteoporosis via increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and thus, antioxidants may prove to be the effective therapeutic candidates. We examined the effects of the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on osteoblastic differentiation in mouse calvarial cells. NAC (10-30 mM) enhanced alkaline phosphatase activity, mRNA expression of osteoblast differentiation-associated genes and mineralized nodule formation. It also increased expression of bone morphogenetic proteins-2, -4, and -7. The osteogenic activity of NAC was partially reduced by inhibition of glutathione synthesis. Since caffeic acid phenethyl ester did not stimulate osteoblast differentiation, it is unlikely that ROS scavenging activity of NAC is sufficient for osteogenic activity. We observed that NAC suppressed small GTPase RhoA activity and activation of RhoA by Pasteurella multocida toxin suppressed the osteogenic activity of NAC. These results suggest that NAC might exert its osteogenic activity via increased glutathione synthesis and inhibition of RhoA activation. 相似文献

It is well known that glutathione, the major intracellular antioxidant, is closely involved in the metabolism and bioactivity of selenium. In the present study, glutathione was demonstrated to play a dual role on selenite (Se)-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in human hepatoma HepG(2) cells. The experiment was carried out in two different modes to modulate intracellular reduced glutathione (GSH) content. In Mode A (pretreatment), cells were pretreated with N-acetylcysteine (NAC), buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), or GSH prior to Se exposure. In Mode B (simultaneous treatment), cells were treated with Se and NAC, BSO, or GSH simultaneously. It was found that Se-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis are closely related to the intracellular level of GSH. Both the increase and depletion of GSH content significantly enhanced Se-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in HepG(2) cells. Results from this study clearly demonstrated that GSH has a dual role in the effects of Se on cancer cells: (i) GSH acts as a pro-oxidant, facilitating Se-induced oxidative stress, and (ii) GSH acts as an antioxidant, protecting against Se-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis. Understanding such a unique association between GSH and Se may help to explain the controversy in the literature over the complex relationship between selenium and glutathione, and ultimately the capability of selenium to prevent cancer. 相似文献

对NaCl胁迫下番茄幼苗叶片分别喷施还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)、氧化型谷胱甘肽(GSSG)和谷胱甘肽合成抑制剂(BSO)构建不同氧化还原水平的番茄植株,研究外源GSH介导的氧化还原状态对NaCl胁迫下番茄幼苗光合作用的影响.结果表明: 外源喷施GSH诱导NaCl胁迫下番茄幼苗叶片的还原力水平提高,叶片净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(gs)、蒸腾速率(Tr)及最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、实际光化学效率(ФPSⅡ)、光化学猝灭系数(qP)、非光化学猝灭系数(NPQ)值均提高,核酮糖-1,5-二磷酸羧化酶/加氧酶(Rubisco)活性及大亚基(RbcL)、小亚基(RbcS)和Rubisco活化酶(RCA)的基因表达水平上调,从而有效保护了光合系统,促进了(光系统Ⅱ)PSⅡ光化学反应活性、降低了NaCl胁迫对光合暗反应的抑制,缓解了NaCl胁迫对番茄植株的危害.喷施GSSG显著降低了NaCl胁迫下番茄幼苗叶片还原力水平,造成叶片光损伤和光抑制加剧,但RbcS和RbcL的基因表达水平上调可能是导致NaCl+GSSG处理下叶片Pn未下降的原因.喷施BSO对NaCl胁迫下番茄幼苗叶片氧化还原状态、CO2传导能力和PSⅡ反应中心无显著影响,但BSO上调碳同化关键酶Rubisco初始活性、总活性及RCA和RbcS表达水平是导致Pn提高的原因. 相似文献
