The chemotherapeutic drug cisplatin has some side effects including nephrotoxicity that has been associated with reactive oxygen species production, particularly superoxide anion. The major source of superoxide anion is nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate hydrogen (NADPH) oxidase. However, the specific segment of the nephron in which superoxide anion is produced has not been identified. Rats were sacrificed 72 h after cisplatin injection (7.5 mg/kg), and kidneys were obtained to isolate glomeruli and proximal and distal tubules. Cisplatin induced superoxide anion production in glomeruli and proximal tubules but not in distal tubules. This enhanced superoxide anion production was prevented by diphenylene iodonium, an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase. Consistently, this effect was associated with the increased expression of gp91phox and p47phox, subunits of NADPH oxidase. The enhanced superoxide anion production in glomeruli and proximal tubules, associated with the increased expression of gp91phox and p47phox, is involved in the oxidative stress in cisplatin‐induced nephrotoxicity. 相似文献

Phagocyte superoxide production by a multicomponent NADPH oxidase is important in host defense against microbial invasion. However inappropriate NADPH oxidase activation causes inflammation. Endothelial cells express NADPH oxidase and endothelial oxidative stress due to prolonged NADPH oxidase activation predisposes many diseases. Discovering the mechanism of NADPH oxidase activation is essential for developing novel treatment of these diseases. The p47phox is a key regulatory subunit of NADPH oxidase; however, due to the lack of full protein structural information, the mechanistic insight of p47phox phosphorylation in NADPH oxidase activation remains incomplete. Based on crystal structures of three functional domains, we generated a computational structural model of the full p47phox protein. Using a combination of in silico phosphorylation, molecular dynamics simulation and protein/protein docking, we discovered that the C-terminal tail of p47phox is critical for stabilizing its autoinhibited structure. Ser-379 phosphorylation disrupts H-bonds that link the C-terminal tail to the autoinhibitory region (AIR) and the tandem Src homology 3 (SH3) domains, allowing the AIR to undergo phosphorylation to expose the SH3 pocket for p22phox binding. These findings were confirmed by site-directed mutagenesis and gene transfection of p47phox−/− coronary microvascular cells. Compared with wild-type p47phox cDNA transfected cells, the single mutation of S379A completely blocked p47phox membrane translocation, binding to p22phox and endothelial O2⨪ production in response to acute stimulation of PKC. p47phox C-terminal tail plays a key role in stabilizing intramolecular interactions at rest. Ser-379 phosphorylation is a molecular switch which initiates p47phox conformational changes and NADPH oxidase-dependent superoxide production by cells. 相似文献

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) are toxic environmental contaminants known to regulate gene expression through activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). In the present study, we demonstrated that acute treatment by BaP markedly increased expression of the NADPH oxidase subunit gene neutrophil cytosolic factor 1 (NCF1)/p47phox in primary human macrophages; NCF1 was similarly up-regulated in alveolar macrophages from BaP-instilled rats. NCF1 induction in BaP-treated human macrophages was prevented by targeting AhR, through its chemical inhibition or small interference RNA-mediated down-modulation of its expression. BaP moreover induced activity of the NCF1 promoter sequence, containing a consensus AhR-related xenobiotic-responsive element (XRE), and electrophoretic mobility shift assays and chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments indicated that BaP-triggered binding of AhR to this XRE. Finally, we showed that BaP exposure resulted in p47phox protein translocation to the plasma membrane and in potentiation of phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-induced superoxide anion production in macrophages. This BaP priming effect toward NADPH oxidase activity was inhibited by the NADPH oxidase specific inhibitor apocynin and the chemical AhR inhibitor α-naphtoflavone. These results indicated that BaP induced NCF1/p47phox expression and subsequently enhanced superoxide anion production in PMA-treated human macrophages, in an AhR-dependent manner; such an NCF1/NADPH oxidase regulation by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons may participate in deleterious effects toward human health triggered by these environmental contaminants, including atherosclerosis and smoking-related diseases. 相似文献

Molecular mechanisms underlying the generation of reactive oxygen species in LL-37-stimulated cells are poorly understood. Previously, we demonstrated that in human fibroblasts the exposure to WKYMVm induced p47phox phosphorylation and translocation and, in turn, NADPH oxidase activation. These effects were mediated by the activation of the Formyl-peptide receptor-like 1 (FPRL1) and the downstream signaling involved ERKs phosphorylation and PKCα- and PKCδ-activation. Since LL-37 uses FPRL1 as a receptor to mediate its action on several cell types, we investigated in LL-37-stimulated IMR90 cells molecular mechanisms involved in NADPH-dependent superoxide generation. The exposure to LL-37, which is expressed in fibroblasts, induced ERKs activation, p47phox phosphorylation and translocation as well as NADPH oxidase activation. These effects were prevented by pertussis toxin, PD098059 and WRWWWW, a FPRL1-selective antagonist. Furthermore, the stimulation with LL-37 of HEK293 cells, transfected to stably express FPRL1, induced a rapid activation of ERKs and p47phox phosphorylation. 相似文献

Nicotine adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase (Nox) complexes are the main sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation in the vessel wall. We have used DNA microarray, real-time PCR and Western blot to demonstrate that the subunit Nox4 is the major Nox isoform in primary human endothelial cells; we also found high levels of NADPH oxidase subunit p22phox expression. Nox4 was localized by laser scanning confocal microscopy within the cytoplasm of endothelial cells. Endothelial Nox4 overexpression enhanced superoxide anion formation and phosphorylation of p38 MAPK. Nox4 down-regulation by shRNA has in contrast to TGF-β no effect on p38 MAPK phosphorylation. We conclude that Nox4 is the major Nox isoform in human endothelial cells, and forms an active complex with p22phox. The Nox4-containing complex mediates formation of reactive oxygen species and p38 MAPK activation. This is a novel mechanism of redox-sensitive signaling in human endothelial cells. 相似文献

We have shown that protein kinase CKII (CKII) inhibition induces senescence through the p53-dependent pathway in HCT116 cells. Here we examined the molecular mechanism through which CKII inhibition activates p53 in HCT116 cells. CKII inhibition by treatment with CKII inhibitor or CKIIα small-interfering RNA (siRNA) increased intracellular hydrogen peroxide and superoxide anion levels. These effects were significantly blocked by pretreatment of cells with the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine. Additionally, NADPH oxidase (NOX) inhibitor apocynin and p22phox siRNA significantly reduced p53 expression and suppressed the appearance of senescence markers. CKII inhibition did not affect mitochondrial superoxide generation. These data demonstrate that CKII inhibition induces superoxide anion generation via NOX activation, and subsequent superoxide-dependent activation of p53 acts as a mediator of senescence in HCT116 cells after down-regulation of CKII. 相似文献

NADPH oxidase comprises both cytosolic and membrane-bound subunits, which, when assembled and activated, initiate the transfer of electrons from NADPH to molecular oxygen to form superoxide. This activity, known as the respiratory burst, is extremely important in the innate immune response as indicated by the disorder chronic granulomatous disease. The regulation of this enzyme complex involves protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions as well as phosphorylation events. Previously, our laboratory demonstrated that the small membrane subunit of the oxidase complex, p22phox, is phosphorylated in neutrophils and that its phosphorylation correlates with NADPH oxidase activity. In this study, we utilized site-directed mutagenesis in a Chinese hamster ovarian cell system to determine the phosphorylation sites within p22phox. We also explored the mechanism by which p22phox phosphorylation affects NADPH oxidase activity. We found that mutation of threonine 147 to alanine inhibited superoxide production in vivo by more than 70%. This mutation also blocked phosphorylation of p22phox in vitro by both protein kinase C-α and -δ. Moreover, this mutation blocked the p22phox-p47phox interaction in intact cells. When phosphorylation was mimicked in vivo through mutation of Thr-147 to an aspartyl residue, NADPH oxidase activity was recovered, and the p22phox-p47phox interaction in the membrane was restored. Maturation of gp91phox was not affected by the alanine mutation, and phosphorylation of the cytosolic component p47phox still occurred. This study directly implicates threonine 147 of p22phox as a critical residue for efficient NADPH oxidase complex formation and resultant enzyme activity. 相似文献

Alveolar macrophages represent critical effector cells of innate immunity to infectious challenge in the lungs and recognize bacterial pathogens through pattern recognition receptors such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs). Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) regulates TLR-mediated cytokine release, but whether HIV infection influences PI3K signaling pathway and alters TLR4-mediated macrophage response has not been investigated. In the current study, surface TLR4 expression were similar but TLR4 activation (lipid A, 10 microg/ml) resulted in lower TNF-alpha release by HIV+ human macrophages compared with healthy cells. Pharmacological inhibition of PI3K (LY294002) normalized TNF-alpha release in HIV+ macrophages and augments ERK1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphorylation in response to lipid A. Importantly, HIV+ macrophages demonstrated increased constitutive phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate formation, increased phosphorylation of downstream signaling molecules Akt and glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK-3beta) at Ser9, and reduced PTEN protein expression. As a functional assessment of GSK-3beta phosphorylation, TLR4-mediated interleukin-10 release was significantly higher in HIV+ human macrophages compared with healthy cells. Incubation of human macrophages with exogenous HIV Nef protein induced phosphorylation of Akt and GSK-3beta (whereas phosphorylation was reduced by PI3K inhibition) and promoted interleukin-10 release. Taken together, these data demonstrate increased constitutive activation of the PI3K signaling pathway in HIV+ macrophages and support the concept that PI3K activation (by HIV proteins such as Nef) may contribute to reduced TLR4-mediated TNF-alpha release in HIV+ human macrophages and impair host cell response to infectious challenge. 相似文献

Mitochondrial and NADPH oxidase systems and oxidative stress were investigated in 12 week high-fat high-sucrose (HFHS) diet-fed rats. A protective effect of wine polyphenol (PP) extract was also examined. In liver, maximal activities of CII and CII+III mitochondrial complexes were decreased but NADPH oxidase expression (p22phox and p47phox) and NADPH oxidase-dependent superoxide anion production were not modified, whereas oxidative stress (lipid and protein oxidation products and antioxidant systems) was increased with HFHS diet. In muscle, anion superoxide production was slightly increased while mitochondrial complex activities and lipid and protein oxidation products were not modified with HFHS diet. In heart, NADPH oxidase expression and superoxide anion production were increased, and maximal activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes or oxidative stress parameters were not modified. Wine polyphenol extract had an inhibiting effect on liver oxidative stress and on heart NADPH oxidase expression and superoxide anion production, and on induction of hepatic steatosis with HFHS diet. Induction of mitochondrial dysfunction could be a primary event in the development of oxidative stress in liver, while in skeletal muscle and in heart the NADPH oxidase system seems to be mainly involved in oxidative stress. Wine polyphenol extract was shown to partially prevent oxidative stress in liver and heart tissues and to nearly completely prevent steatosis development in liver. 相似文献

Elevation of blood homocysteine (Hcy) levels (hyperhomocysteinemia) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disorders. We previously reported that oxidative stress contributed to Hcy-induced inflammatory response in vascular cells. In this study, we investigated whether NADPH oxidase was involved in Hcy-induced superoxide anion accumulation in the aorta, which leads to endothelial dysfunction during hyperhomocysteinemia. Hyperhomocysteinemia was induced in rats fed a high-methionine diet. NADPH oxidase activity and the levels of superoxide and peroxynitrite were markedly increased in aortas isolated from hyperhomocysteinemic rats. Expression of the NADPH oxidase subunit p22 phox increased significantly in these aortas. Administration of an NADPH oxidase inhibitor (apocynin) not only attenuated aortic superoxide and peroxynitrite to control levels but also restored endothelium-dependent relaxation in the aortas of hyperhomocysteinemic rats. Transfection of human endothelial cells or vascular smooth muscle cells with p22 phox siRNA to inhibit NADPH oxidase activation effectively abolished Hcy-induced superoxide anion production, thus indicating the direct involvement of NADPH oxidase in elevated superoxide generation in vascular cells. Taken together, these results suggest that Hcy-stimulated superoxide anion production in the vascular wall is mediated through the activation of NADPH oxidase, which leads to endothelial dysfunction during hyperhomocysteinemia. 相似文献

P-Rex1 (phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate-dependent Rac exchanger 1) is a Rac-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor activated by Gβγ subunits and by PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. Recent studies indicate that P-Rex1 plays an important role in signaling downstream of neutrophil chemoattractant receptors. Here we report that heterologous expression of P-Rex1, but not Vav1, reconstitutes formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1)-mediated NADPH oxidase activation in the transgenic COSphox cells expressing gp91phox, p22phox, p67phox and p47phox. A successful reconstitution requires the expression of a full-length P-Rex1 with intact DH and PH domains, and is accompanied by P-Rex1 membrane localization as well as Rac1 activation. P-Rex1-dependent superoxide generation in the reconstituted COSphox cells was further enhanced by expression of the novel PKC isoform PKCδ and by overexpression of Akt. Heterologous expression of P-Rex1 in COSphox cells potentiated fMet-Leu-Phe-induced Akt phosphorylation, whereas expression of a constitutively active form of Akt enhanced Rac1 activation. In contrast, a dominant negative Akt mutant reduced the fMet-Leu-Phe stimulated superoxide generation as well as Rac1 activation. These results demonstrate that in COSphox cells, P-Rex1 is a critical component for FPR1-mediated signaling leading to NADPH oxidase activation, and there is a crosstalk between the P-Rex1-Rac pathway and Akt in superoxide generation. 相似文献

Phosphatidic acid generated by the activation of phospholipase D (PLD)
functions as a second messenger and plays a vital role in cell signaling. Here
we demonstrate that PLD-dependent generation of phosphatidic acid is critical
for Rac1/IQGAP1 signal transduction, translocation of
p47phox to cell periphery, and ROS production. Exposure of
[32P]orthophosphate-labeled human pulmonary artery endothelial
cells (HPAECs) to hyperoxia (95% O2 and 5% CO2) in the
presence of 0.05% 1-butanol, but not tertiary-butanol, stimulated PLD as
evidenced by accumulation of [32P]phosphatidylbutanol. Infection of
HPAECs with adenoviral constructs of PLD1 and PLD2 wild-type potentiated
hyperoxia-induced PLD activation and accumulation of
/reactive oxygen species
(ROS). Conversely, overexpression of catalytically inactive mutants of PLD
(hPLD1-K898R or mPLD2-K758R) or down-regulation of expression of PLD with PLD1
or PLD2 siRNA did not augment hyperoxia-induced
[32P]phosphatidylbutanol accumulation and ROS generation. Hyperoxia
caused rapid activation and redistribution of Rac1, and IQGAP1 to cell
periphery, and down-regulation of Rac1, and IQGAP1 attenuated
hyperoxia-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Src and cortactin and ROS
generation. Further, hyperoxia-mediated redistribution of Rac1, and IQGAP1 to
membrane ruffles, was attenuated by PLD1 or PLD2 small interference RNA,
suggesting that PLD is upstream of the Rac1/IQGAP1 signaling cascade. Finally,
small interference RNA for PLD1 or PLD2 attenuated hyperoxia-induced cortactin
tyrosine phosphorylation and abolished Src, cortactin, and
p47phox redistribution to cell periphery. These results
demonstrate a role of PLD in hyperoxia-mediated IQGAP1 activation through Rac1
in tyrosine phosphorylation of Src and cortactin, as well as in
p47phox translocation and ROS formation in human lung
endothelial cells.Phagocytic cells of the immune system (neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes,
and macrophages) generate superoxide

instrumental in the killing of invading pathogens solely by NADPH oxidase
(1-3).
Deficiency of results in
the genetically inherited disorder chronic granulomatous disease, a condition
in which the affected individuals are susceptible to infection
(4). Phagocytic NADPH oxidase
is activated when cytosolic p47phox,
p67phox, and Rac2 translocate to the phagosomes and plasma
membrane and form a complex with integral membrane cytochrome
b558, which, in turn, is a Nox2
(gp91phox)/p22phox heterodimer
(5,
6). Assembly of phagocytic
NADPH oxidase is initiated by two signals. The first is the phosphorylation of
multiple serine and tyrosine residues in the p47phox
domain, which leads to unmasking of p47phox SH3 domains
that bind to a proline-rich target in the C terminus of
p22phox
(7-10).
The interaction between p47phox and
p22phox seems to be an essential requirement for the
translocation of other cytosolic components of the oxidase. The second signal
is the binding of GTP to Rac2, which leads to the dissociation of Rac from
Rho-GDI and binding to p67phox, followed by translocation
of p67phox/GTP-Rac2 to the membrane
(11). Nonphagocytic cells
express predominantly Rac1, Tiam1 (a GEF involved in Rac1 activation), Nox1-5,
and most of the other cytosolic phagocytic oxidase components
(12); however, the oxidative
output of non-phagocytes is much smaller compared with the phagocytes. A
recent study indicates that IQGAP1, an effector of Rac1, may link Nox2 to
actin, thereby enhancing ROS production and contributing to cell motility in
ECs (13). The one or more
mechanisms responsible for differences in the oxidative burst between the
phagocytic and non-phagocytic cells are yet to be defined.We have demonstrated previously that hyperoxia activates lung endothelial
NADPH oxidase, which in part is mediated by ERK, p38 MAPK
(14,
15), and Src
(16), and hyperoxia-induced
p47phox tyrosine phosphorylation and translocation to cell
periphery is dependent on Src
(16). Further, tyrosine
phosphorylation of cortactin mediated by Src is essential for
hyperoxia-induced p47phox translocation and
/ROS generation in HPAECs
(17). In addition to Src,
phosphatidic acid (PA) or diacylglycerol also stimulated phosphorylation of
p47phox and p22phox in neutrophils
both in vivo and in vitro
(18-20).
PA is generated in mammalian cells via de novo biosynthesis or
hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids catalyzed by phospholipase D (PLD)
(21-25).
Activation of polymorphonuclear leukocytes with formyl-Met-Leu-Phe enhanced
the oxidative burst that correlated with PA accumulation, and inclusion of
short-chain primary alcohols attenuated the NADPH oxidase mediated
/ROS generation,
suggesting a potential role for PLD in the regulation of NADPH oxidase
(12,
26,
27). However, the downstream
targets of PLD that signal NADPH oxidase activation have not been fully
characterized.Here, we identify for the first time that activation of IQGAP1 by Rac1 is
downstream of PLD in hyperoxia-induced ROS generation. In addition, we show
that activation of Rac1/IQGAP1 by PLD also regulates Src-dependent tyrosine
phosphorylation of cortactin and p47phox translocation to
cell periphery. Thus, our results define a novel molecular mechanism for
hyperoxia-induced NADPH oxidase activation by PLD/PA-mediated
p47phox membrane translocation via
Rac1/IQGAP1/Src/cortactin signaling cascade. 相似文献

Hyperhomocysteinaemia is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases due to atherosclerosis. The development of atherosclerosis involves reactive oxygen species-induced oxidative stress in vascular cells. Our previous study [Wang and O (2001) Biochem. J. 357, 233-240] demonstrated that Hcy (homocysteine) treatment caused a significant elevation of intracellular superoxide anion, leading to increased expression of chemokine receptor in monocytes. NADPH oxidase is primarily responsible for superoxide anion production in monocytes. In the present study, we investigated the molecular mechanism of Hcy-induced superoxide anion production in monocytes. Hcy treatment (20-100 microM) caused an activation of NADPH oxidase and an increase in the superoxide anion level in monocytes (THP-1, a human monocytic cell line). Transfection of cells with p47phox siRNA (small interfering RNA) abolished Hcy-induced superoxide anion production, indicating the involvement of NADPH oxidase. Hcy treatment resulted in phosphorylation and subsequently membrane translocation of p47phox and p67phox subunits leading to NADPH oxidase activation. Pretreatment of cells with PKC (protein kinase C) inhibitors Ro-32-0432 (bisindolylmaleimide XI hydrochloride) (selective for PKCalpha, PKCbeta and PKCgamma) abolished Hcy-induced phosphorylation of p47phox and p67phox subunits in monocytes. Transfection of cells with antisense PKCbeta oligonucleotide, but not antisense PKCalpha oligonucleotide, completely blocked Hcy-induced phosphorylation of p47phox and p67phox subunits as well as superoxide anion production. Pretreatment of cells with LY333531, a PKCbeta inhibitor, abolished Hcy-induced superoxide anion production. Taken together, these results indicate that Hcy-stimulated superoxide anion production in monocytes is regulated through PKC-dependent phosphorylation of p47phox and p67phox subunits of NADPH oxidase. Increased superoxide anion production via NADPH oxidase may play an important role in Hcy-induced inflammatory response during atherogenesis. 相似文献

Inorganic arsenic activates reduced NADPH oxidase in human primary macrophages through a Rho kinase/p38 kinase pathway 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Inorganic arsenic is an immunotoxic environmental contaminant to which millions of humans are chronically exposed. We recently demonstrated that human primary macrophages constituted a critical target for arsenic trioxide (As(2)O(3)), an inorganic trivalent form. To specify the effects of arsenic on macrophage phenotype, we investigated in the present study whether As(2)O(3) could regulate the activity of NADPH oxidase, a major superoxide-generating enzymatic system in human phagocytes. Our results show that superoxide levels were significantly increased in a time-dependent manner in blood monocyte-derived macrophages treated with 1 muM As(2)O(3) for 72 h. Concomitantly, As(2)O(3) induced phosphorylation and membrane translocation of the NADPH oxidase subunit p47(phox) and it also increased translocation of Rac1 and p67(phox). Apocynin, a selective inhibitor of NADPH oxidases, prevented both p47(phox) translocation and superoxide production. NADPH oxidase activation was preceded by phosphorylation of p38-kinase in As(2)O(3)-treated macrophages. The p38-kinase inhibitor SB-203580 prevented phosphorylation and translocation of p47(phox) and subsequent superoxide production. Pretreatment of macrophages with the Rho-kinase inhibitor Y-27632 was found to mimic inhibitory effects of SB-203580 and to prevent As(2)O(3)-induced phosphorylation of p38 kinase. Treatment with As(2)O(3) also resulted in an increased secretion of the proinflammatory chemokine CCL18 that was fully inhibited by both apocynin and SB-203580. Taken together, our results demonstrate that As(2)O(3) induced a marked activation of NADPH oxidase in human macrophages, likely through stimulation of a Rho-kinase/p38-kinase pathway, and which may contribute to some of the deleterious effects of inorganic arsenic on macrophage phenotype. 相似文献

Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an important enzyme involved in the genesis and development of atherosclerosis. Vascular peroxidase 1 (VPO1) is a newly discovered member of the peroxidase family that is mainly expressed in vascular endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells and has structural characteristics and biological activity similar to those of MPO. Our specific aims were to explore the effects of VPO1 on endothelial cell apoptosis induced by oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) and the underlying mechanisms. The results showed that ox-LDL induced endothelial cell apoptosis and the expression of VPO1 in endothelial cells in a concentration- and time-dependent manner concomitant with increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and hypochlorous acid (HOCl) generation, and up-regulated protein expression of the NADPH oxidase gp91phox subunit and phosphorylation of p38 MAPK. All these effects of ox-LDL were inhibited by VPO1 gene silencing and NADPH oxidase gp91phox subunit gene silencing or by pretreatment with the NADPH oxidase inhibitor apocynin or diphenyliodonium. The p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580 or the caspase-3 inhibitor DEVD-CHO significantly inhibited ox-LDL-induced endothelial cell apoptosis, but had no effect on intracellular ROS and HOCl generation or the expression of NADPH oxidase gp91phox subunit or VPO1. Collectively, these findings suggest for the first time that VPO1 plays a critical role in ox-LDL-induced endothelial cell apoptosis and that there is a positive feedback loop between VPO1/HOCl and the now-accepted dogma that the NADPH oxidase/ROS/p38 MAPK/caspase-3 pathway is involved in ox-LDL-induced endothelial cell apoptosis. 相似文献

Impaired cardiovascular function during acute myocardial infarction (MI) is partly associated with recruitment of activated polymorphonuclear neutrophils. The protective role of arjunolic acid (AA; 2,3,23-trihydroxy olean-12-en-28-oic acid) is studied in the modulation of neutrophil functions in vitro by measuring the reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. Neutrophils were isolated from normal and acute MI mice to find out the efficacy of AA in reducing oxidative stress. Stimulation of neutrophils with phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) resulted in an oxidative burst of superoxide anion (O2−) and enhanced release of lysosomal enzymes. The treatment of neutrophils with PMA induced phosphorylation of Ser345 on p47phox, a cytosolic component of NADPH oxidase. Furthermore, we observed activated ERK induced phosphorylation of Ser345 in MI neutrophils. Treatment with AA significantly inhibited the phosphorylation of P47phox and ERK in the stimulated controls and MI neutrophils. Oxidative phosphorylation activities in MI cells were lower than in control, while the glycolysis rates were elevated in MI cells compared to the control. In addition, we observed AA decreased intracellular oxidative stress and reduced the levels of O2− in neutrophils. This study therefore identifies targets for AA in activated neutrophils mediated by the MAPK pathway on p47phox involved in ROS generation. 相似文献

Induction of tumour necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) expression leads to myocardial depression during sepsis. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of Rac1 in TNF‐α expression and cardiac dysfunction during endotoxemia and to determine the involvement of phosphoinositide‐3 kinase (PI3K) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐induced Rac1 activation. Our results showed that LPS‐induced Rac1 activation and TNF‐α expression in cultured neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes. The response was inhibited in Rac1 deficient cardiomyocytes or by a dominant‐negative Rac1 (Rac1N17). To determine whether PI3K regulates Rac1 activation, cardiomyocytes were treated with LY294002, a PI3K selective inhibitor. Treatment with LY294002 decreased Rac1 activity as well as TNF‐α expression stimulated by LPS. Furthermore, inhibition of PI3K and Rac1 activity decreased LPS‐induced superoxide generation which was associated with a significant reduction in ERK1/2 phosphorylation. To investigate the role of Rac1 in myocardial depression during endotoxemia in vivo, wild‐type and cardiomyocyte‐specific Rac1 deficient mice were treated with LPS (2 mg/kg, i.p.). Deficiency in Rac1 significantly decreased myocardial TNF‐α expression and improved cardiac function during endotoxemia. We conclude that PI3K‐mediated Rac1 activation is required for induction of TNF‐α expression in cardiomyocytes and cardiac dysfunction during endotoxemia. The effect of Rac1 on TNF‐α expression seems to be mediated by increased NADPH oxidase activity and ERK1/2 phosphorylation. 相似文献

Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is known as an oxidative stress protein that is up-regulated by various stimuli. HO-1 has been shown to protect cells against oxidative damage. Cigarette smoke is a potential inflammatory mediator that causes chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma. In this study, we report that cigarette smoke particle-phase extract (CSPE) is an inducer of HO-1 expression mediated through various signaling pathways in human tracheal smooth muscle cells (HTSMCs). CSPE-induced HO-1 protein, mRNA expression, and promoter activity were attenuated by pretreatment with a ROS scavenger (N-acetyl-l-cysteine) and inhibitors of c-Src (PP1), NADPH oxidase [diphenylene iodonium chloride (DPI) and apocynin (APO)], MEK1/2 (U0126), p38 MAPK (SB202190), and JNK1/2 (SP600125) or transfection with siRNAs for Src, p47phox, NOX2, p42, p38, JNK2, or NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2). CSPE-stimulated translocation of p47phox and Nrf2, ROS production, and NADPH oxidase activity was attenuated by transfection with siRNAs for Src, p47phox, and NOX2 or pretreatment with PP1, DPI, or APO. Furthermore, CSPE-induced NOX2, c-Src, and p47phox complex formation was revealed by immunoprecipitation using an anti-NOX2, anti-p47phox, or anti-c-Src Ab followed by Western blot against anti-NOX2, anti-p47phox, or anti-c-Src Abs. These results demonstrate that CSPE-induced ROS generation is mediated through a c-Src/NADPH oxidase/MAPK pathway and in turn initiates the activation of Nrf2 and ultimately induces HO-1 expression in HTSMCs. 相似文献

The phagocyte NADPH oxidase, dormant in resting cells, is activated during phagocytosis to produce superoxide, a precursor of microbicidal oxidants. The membrane-integrated protein gp91phox serves as the catalytic core, because it contains a complete electron-transporting apparatus from NADPH to molecular oxygen for superoxide production. Activation of gp91phox requires the cytosolic proteins p67phox, p47phox, and Rac (a small GTPase). p67phox, comprising 526 amino acids, moves upon cell stimulation to the membrane together with p47phox and there interacts with Rac; these processes are prerequisite for gp91phox activation. Here we show that a region of p67phox (amino acids 190–200) C-terminal to the Rac-binding domain is evolutionarily well conserved and participates in oxidase activation at a later stage in conjunction with an activation domain. Alanine substitution for Tyr-198, Leu-199, or Val-204 abrogates the ability of p67phox to support superoxide production by gp91phox-based oxidase as well as its related oxidases Nox1 and Nox3; the activation also involves other invariant residues such as Leu-193, Asp-197, and Gly-200. Intriguingly, replacement of Gln-192 by alanine or that of Tyr-198 by phenylalanine or tryptophan rather enhances superoxide production by gp91phox-based oxidase, suggesting a tuning role for these residues. Furthermore, the Y198A/V204A or L199A/V204A substitution leads to not only a complete loss of the activity of the reconstituted oxidase system but also a significant decrease in p67phox interaction with the gp91phox NADPH-binding domain, although these mutations affect neither the protein integrity nor the Rac binding activity. Thus the extended activation domain of p67phox (amino acids 190–210) containing the D(Y/F)LGK motif plays an essential role in oxidase activation probably by interacting with gp91phox. 相似文献
