Erythrocytes are a convenient model to understand oxidative damage to the membranes induced by various xenobiotics. The objective of the present study was to investigate the propensity of atrazine to induce oxidative stress and its possible attenuation by vitamin E. Experimental animals were orally administered atrazine (300 mg kg(-1) body weight, daily) and vitamin E (100 mg kg(-1) body weight, daily) for a period of 7, 14, and 21 days. Erythrocyte membranes were prepared and analyzed for acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity, lipid peroxidation (LPO), and lipid composition. Susceptibility of erythrocytes to atrazine exposure was further investigated in terms of morphological alterations by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results indicate that atrazine exposure caused a significant inhibition of AChE activity and induction of oxidative stress in terms of increased malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. Atrazine treatment significantly decreased total lipid, cholesterol, and phospholipid content of erythrocyte membranes. SEM revealed varying degrees of distortion depending on duration of atrazine exposure. However, administration of vitamin E ameliorated the oxidative stress and changes in the erythrocyte membranes induced by atrazine. 相似文献

Erythroleukemia disease is caused by over production of malignant blood and immature large number of blood cells enters into peripheral compartment. Biophysical and biochemical changes in plasma and erythrocyte membrane in erythroleukemia treated rats were identified. Our study, leukemia is experimentally exposed in rats were injecting erythroleukemia cells (FLC) (H-2d) intravenously in adult rats and normal control rats were maintained. Significant increase in the activity of blood glucose, proteins levels, aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) values and significant decrease in haemoglobin (Hb), albumin levels in erythroleukemia treated rats were observed when compared with control rats. Cholesterol and low density liproprotein (LDL) levels increased significantly in erythroleukemia treated rats but triglycerides, high density lipoprotein (HDL) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) levels decreased significantly. Levels of red cell membrane cholesterol decreased in erythroleukemia treated rats in comparison with control while levels of phospholipids and proteins increased in erythrocytes of erythroleukemia treated rats. Red blood cell (RBC) and white blood cell (WBC) counts increased significantly and platelet count decreased. C/P (cholesterol/phospholipid) ratio decreased significantly in erythroleukemia treated rats. This study has been undertaken for the first time to investigate the effect of (FLC) (H-2d) erythroleukemia cells (treated) in intravenously in adult rats and normal control rats. Results indicate biophysical and biochemical alterations at molecular level in plasma and erythrocyte membrane. 相似文献

Erythrocyte membranes from rats raised on a diet with low content of essential fatty acids were studied by osmotic sensitivity tests and spin labeling techniques. This diet induced significant modifications in acylglycerophosphocholine fatty acid composition with regard to 16 : 1, 18 : 1, 18 : 2 (n-6), 20 : 3 (n-9), and 20 : 4 (n-6). No changes in membrane fluidity as monitored by spin label motion were found but the diet caused an increased osmotic sensitivity in essential fatty acid deficient erythrocytes. 50% hemolysis was obtained at a 51.0% dilution of saline with H2O as compared to a 57.0% dilution for the control material. Membrane fluidity was unaffected by γ-irradiation up to 80 krad. 相似文献

Formation of free radicals is not limited to normal cellular process but also occur upon exposure to certain chemicals (polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbon, cadmium, lead, etc.), cigarette smoke, radiation, and high-fat diet. Free-radical damage is an important
factor in many pathological and toxicological processes. Selenium, an essential micronutrient, is a associated with antioxidant
functions, physiological defense mechanisms against different diseases including several types of cancers. Search for new
selenium compounds with more chemopreventive activities and less toxicities are in progress. In addition, there has been a
growing interest in the synthesis of organoselenium compounds with respect to their use in enzymology and bioorganic chemistry.
In the present study, adult female Wistar rats were treated with 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) and the organoselenium
compounds [1-isopropyl-3-methylbenzimidazole-2-selenone (Se I) and 1, 3-di-p-methoxybenzylpyrimidine-2-selenone (Se II)] in determined doses. The protective effects of synthetic organoselenium compounds
(Se I and Se II) against DMBA-induced changes in antioxidant enzyme (superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px),
catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR)) activities, total GSH, and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels of rat erythrocyte were
investigated. The DMBA-treated group exhibited significant decreases in the levels of erythrocyte GSH-Px, CAT, and GR activities,
an increase in MDA levels, and a decrease in total GSH level compared to the control. Se I and Se II fully or partially restored
enzyme activity. Lipid peroxidation was also decreased in Se-I- and Se-II-treated groups. 相似文献

The effects of NO in its environment may vary considerably depending on various factors. This study shows oxidative mechanism of cellular membrane alterations, which is not associated with triggering of ONOOH generation but is induced by pure NO. Our investigation examined the influence of low concentration of NO (0.1; 0.2 mmol/l) on the qualitative changes of structure and dynamics of erythrocyte membrane. NO causes a statistically significant increase in membrane fluidity on different depths of lipid bilayer that is correlated with increase of lipids peroxidation. Statistically significant changes in the conformational state of cytoskeleton proteins were also detected. NO can be considered as a molecule responsible for determining rheological properties of erythrocytes membrane. Therefore, we propose that NO acts as pro-oxidant molecule at concentrations for which membrane appeared to be the first target before it entered the cytosol. 相似文献

Saxitoxins (STXs) are neurotoxins produced by cyanobacteria such as Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii. During bloom events, the production of these compounds causes contamination on public water supply sources. STXs block voltage gated sodium channels and can lead to severe poisoning and death of organisms at different trophic levels. Other toxicity mechanism of STX is the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of consumption of water contaminated with a C. raciborskii strain (producing variants of Neo-STX and STX) by rats during 30 days through the analysis of oxidative stress biochemical parameters. Total antioxidant capacity (ACAP) and oxidative stress parameters were analyzed at pre-frontal cortex, hippocampus and liver of adult Wistar rats (2–3 months old). Treated animals ingested concentrations of 3 and 9 μg/L of STX equivalents and were compared with a control group (culture medium ASM-1). At the concentration of 3 μg/L, a decrease in ROS production associated with lower ACAP at hippocampus was observed. Furthermore, a decrease of glutamate cysteine ligase (GCL) activity in the cortex and an increase of brain and liver glutathione concentration were also observed. At the highest concentration (9 μg/L), there was an ACAP increase in the hippocampus as well as in the activity GCL and glutathione-S-transferase in the cortex and hippocampus. At both concentrations, lipid peroxidation was registered in the liver. Therefore, chronic ingestion of STXs can alter the antioxidant defenses and induce oxidative stress in brain and liver. The present results point to the values adopted as threshold limit for STXs in potable waters (3 μg/L) shows already significant chronic effects that alter antioxidant defenses and induce oxidative stress at least in two of the organs studied. 相似文献

The effects of tetramethrin and prallethrin exposure on plasma total proteins, free amino acids, albumins, urea, urea nitrogen, uric acid, creatinine were tested. Serum SGOT, SGPT and lipid profile, antioxidants super oxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, GSH, G-Px, phospholipids, cholesterol, C/P ratio in membranes of erythrocyte and membrane fluidity were analyzed. The reason of the study were analyzed to examine the possessions of mosquito repellent pyrethroid (MRP) based compounds tetramethrin and prallethrin exposure on plasma profile, antioxidant status of erythrocyte membrane, membrane fluidity in male Wistar rats. We tested chronically for three months exposure every day (continuously for 8–10 h per day by inhalation) of tetramethrin and prallethrin markedly available (MRP) repellents treated on male Wistar rats. Our results confirmed that tetrarmethrin and prallethrin treatment effect of plasma profile alterations, and lipid homeostasis mechanism in Red Blood cells (RBCs). Tetramethrin and prallethrin treatment significantly increased in erythrocyte membrane phospholipids and decreased levels of cholesterol with no change of protein content, increased C/P ration levels. Inhalation of tetramethrin and prallethrin stimulate plasma biophysical and biochemical modify SGOT, SGPT, erythrocyte membrane cholesterol and phospholipid levels, individual phospholipids and membrane fluidity of exposure rats compared to controls. 相似文献

Bradykinin and its related peptides are widely distributed in venomous animals, including scorpion. A peptide fraction isolated from the venom of the Egyptian scorpion Buthus occitanus was proved to have a bradykinin-potentiating activity. The aim of the present study was conducted to investigate whether the treatment with bradykinin potentiating factor (BPF) offers more beneficial effects in reversing cadmium-induced oxidative stress in rat liver and kidney. Adult male rats, equally divided into control and two treated groups, 10 animals in each group. group (I) was orally given (1 ml) saline and served as a control group; group (II) of rats was given cadmium chloride (4 mg/kg) alone, once daily an oral dose for 7 successive days; group (III) of rats was given ip injection (1 ml) BPF, once daily a dose for 7 successive days prior to CdCl2 treatment and on the next 7 successive days with the same dose of cadmium as group II. Both organs were subjected to histopathological analysis with the light microscope. The activities of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), asparate aminotransferase (AST) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in serum were measured as indicators of the liver function. As parameters of the kidney function, creatinine, uric acid and urea concentrations in serum were determined. Also, malondialdehyde (MDA), reduced glutathione (GSH), super oxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) were determined in both tissues. Cd exposure caused a significant decrease or inhibition in the activities of GSH, SOD, and CAT, with significant increase in the level of MDA, in versus to control groups in both liver and kidney. Also, when Cd was treated in co-administration with BPF induced increase or stimulation in the activity of GSH, SOD, and CAT, with significant decrease in the level of MDA when compared to Cd group in both organs. Histopathological changes of liver and kidney were also in accordance with the biochemical findings. Our data showed that Cd treatment induced histopathological alteration in the liver, severe hydropic degeneration in centrolobular zones. Inflammatory cells infiltration around the congested central vein and an obvious injury in some renal tubules. Bradykinin potentiating factor (BPF) administration prevented the histopathological alterations which observed in Cd-groups and both liver and kidney had essentially normal appearance in histopathological examination. In conclusion, BPF markedly ameliorated cadmium-induced liver and kidney tissue damage as evidenced by histological and biochemical examinations and acts as a potent scavenger of free radicals to protect the liver and kidney against the deleterious effect of acute cadmium intoxication. 相似文献

Pyruvate (PY) is known to be a potent scavenger of H2O2 by undergoing its peroxidative decarboxylation. While doing so, it also inhibits
·
OH generation, in addition to its direct
·
OH scavenging effect. We now hypothesize that PY would also be decarboxylated by cleaving the -O-O- bond in peroxynitrite
(ONOO−) (PN), with the effect of protecting tissues against NOx induced damage. We have verified this by measuring 14CO2 formation on incubation of 1-14C-PY with 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1). Its protective effect against PN induced thiol depletion was initially assessed
by determining its ability to inhibit oxidation of pure GSH. This was further evaluated by incubating lens homogenate with
SIN-1 with or without PY. As conceived, PY did inhibit PN induced loss of protein as well as non-protein -SH. The findings
therefore appear potentially useful to protect against nitrite induced damage to the lens and other tissues known to occur
with aging and certain diseases such as diabetes. 相似文献

2,3,7,8-tetrachlorododibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is a highly persistent trace environmental contaminant and is one of the most potent toxicants known. Exposure to TCDD has been shown to cause oxidative stress in a variety of animal models. In this study, pregnant Long Evans rats were dosed with 1 microg TCDD/kg on gestational day (GD) 15 so as to investigate oxidative stress in the liver of male pups following gestational exposure to TCDD. Lipid peroxidation (TBARS), production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and total glutathione (GSH) were assayed to identify changes in oxidative stress parameters in the pup liver at GD 21 and postnatal days (PND) 4, 25, 32, 49, and 63. Mean ROS levels in pups were elevated at all time points tested with a significant elevation at PND 4 and PND 25. However, pup hepatic lipid peroxidation was unchanged throughout the time course. In addition, hepatic total GSH levels were not significantly changed although the means for the TCDD-treated groups were less than those of the controls at all time points except PND 49. The results indicate that although the levels of ROS are increased following gestational/lactational exposure, this increase does not translate to direct oxidative damage or significant changes to endogenous antioxidant defense mechanisms. Further investigation into the effect of gestational/lactational exposure in pups should include additional endpoints for further characterization of the time course of the response, the effect upon extrahepatic tissues, and investigation of differences between male and female offspring. 相似文献

Ozone exposure effect on free radical-catalyzed oxidation products of lipids, proteins, and DNA in the plasma and urine of rats was studied as a continuation of the international Biomarker of Oxidative Stress Study (BOSS) sponsored by NIEHS/NIH. The goal was to identify a biomarker for ozone-induced oxidative stress and to assess whether inconsistent results often reported in the literature might be due to the limitations of the available methods for measuring the various types of oxidative products. The time- and dose-dependent effects of ozone exposure on rat plasma lipid hydroperoxides, malondialdehyde, F2-isoprostanes, protein carbonyls, methionine oxidation, and tyrosine- and phenylalanine oxidation products, as well as urinary malondialdehyde and F2-isoprostanes were investigated with various techniques. The criterion used to recognize a marker in the model of ozone exposure was that a significant effect could be identified and measured in a biological fluid seen at both doses at more than one time point. No statistically significant differences between the experimental and the control groups at either ozone dose and time point studied could be identified in this study. Tissue samples were not included. Despite all the work accomplished in the BOSS study of ozone, no available product of oxidation in biological fluid has yet met the required criteria of being a biomarker. The current negative findings as a consequence of ozone exposure are of great importance, because they document that in complex systems, as the present in vivo experiment, the assays used may not provide meaningful data of ozone oxidation, especially in human studies. 相似文献

Ethyl pyruvate (EP), a simple derivative of endogenous pyruvate, has an anti-inflammatory function. Recently, the protective neurological effects of EP have been reported in cell culture and animal models of neurological diseases. The present study investigates the protective effects of EP on dopaminergic cell death in Parkinson’s disease models. The selective death of dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra was prevented by EP in 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine mouse models. EP also suppressed the 1-methyl-4-pyridinium-induced cell death of SH-SY5Y cells and restored the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase. Thus, EP has neuroprotective effects of EP in Parkinson’s disease and its related signaling pathways. 相似文献

Detection of ultraweak chemiluminescence (CL) emission from the surface of the organ is a sensitive and non-disruptive tool to evaluate the oxidative stress in rat heart. Indeed, an increased photon emission rate can be observed when cellular antioxidants such as glutathione or vitamin E are depleted, or when organic hydroperoxides are infused. We used CL recording to demonstrate in rat heart that: (i) different diets may lead to different heart sensitivity to an oxidative stress; and (ii) post-ischaemic reoxygenation induces an oxidative stress. CL emission induced by an oxidative stress is accompanied by an increased release of eicosanoids. However, while non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (aspirin, indomethacin and ibuprofen) prevented eicosanoid release, these compounds dramatically enhanced hydroperoxide-dependent CL. The nature of this phenomenon is still obscure, but the increase of steady-state concentration of excited species caused by anti-inflammatory drugs seems to be pathophysiologically relevant, since in all our experimental conditions tissue damage was proportional to CL emission rate. 相似文献

Several structural and functional properties are characterized in nucleated erythrocyte plasmalemmae of age and sex-matched dystrophic (line 413) and normal (line 412) chickens obtained from the University of California at Davis. Plasmalemma purity is assessed through marker enzymes. Significant differences are observed in the phospholipid content between dystrophic and normal chickens. The dystrophic chicken erythrocyte plasmalemma has an increased concentration of phosphatidylserine and a decreased concentration of phosphatidylethanolamine compared with control birds. Also, a measurable and distinct polar lipid, observed only on thin-layer chromatography (TLC) plates spotted with dystrophic preparations, is visualized adjacent to phosphatidylethanolamine. These abnormalities in the dystrophic chicken erythrocyte may signal a general defect in membrane structure for chicken dystrophy. 相似文献

Oxidative DNA damage induced by iron chloride in the larvae of the lace coral Pocillopora damicornis

Biochemical and molecular biomarkers tools are utilized as early warning signatures of contaminant exposure to target and non-target organisms. The objective of this study was to investigate the sublethal effects of iron chloride to the larvae of the lace coral Pocillopora damicornis by measuring a suit of oxidative-stress biomarkers. The larvae were exposed to a range of sublethal concentrations of iron chloride (0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, and 100 ppm) for seven days. With reference to oxidative stress biomarkers, the no-observed effect concentration (NOEC) and the lowest observed effect concentration (LOEC) of iron chloride were observed to be 0.01 and 100 ppm respectively. At the end of the seventh day the antioxidant status of the larvae was evaluated by the levels of glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), glutathione reductase (GR), and glutathione-S-transferase (GST), in both experimental and control groups. For the quantification of cellular oxidative damage, lipid peroxidation (LPO) activity was determined in the same and the extent of DNA damage was assessed by the expression of DNA apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites. Iron chloride exhibited a concentration-dependent inhibition of GSH and GPX and induction of GR, GST, LPO, and DNA-AP sites in the P. damicornis larvae when compared to the control group. The oxidative stress biomarkers of the larvae exposed to 0.1, 1, and 10 ppm of iron chloride did not show any significant overall differences when compared to the control group. However the activities of LPO, GSH, GPX, GR, GST and DNA-AP in the larval group exposed to 100 ppm of iron chloride exhibited statistically significant (P=0.002, 0.003, 0.002, 0.002, 0.005 and 0.007) differences when compared to the control group. The research results indicated that iron chloride in concentrations at the 100 ppm level caused oxidative stress in the P. damicornis larvae. 相似文献

Iron, a key element in Fenton chemistry, causes oxygen-related toxicity to cells of most living organisms. Helicobacter pylori is a microaerophilic bacterium that infects human gastric mucosa and causes a series of gastric diseases. Exposure of H. pylori cells to air for 2 h elevated the level of free iron by about 4-fold as measured by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. H. pylori cells accumulated more free iron as they approached stationary phase growth, and they concomitantly suffered more DNA damage as indicated by DNA fragmentation analysis. Relationships between the intracellular free iron level, specific oxidative stress enzymes, and DNA damage were identified, and new roles for three oxidative stress-combating enzymes in H. pylori are proposed. Mutant cells defective in either catalase (KatA), in superoxide dismutase (SodB) or in alkyl hydroperoxide reductase (AhpC) were more sensitive to oxidative stress conditions; and they accumulated more free (toxic) iron; and they suffered more DNA fragmentation compared to wild type cells. A significant proportion of cells of sodB, ahpC, or katA mutant strains developed into the stress-induced coccoid form or lysed; they also contained significantly higher amounts of 8-oxo-guanine associated with their DNA, compared to wild type cells. 相似文献

It is known that aging is characterized by changes in cell metabolism resulting in modification of the structure and function of cell membrane components which is mainly the consequence of reactive oxygen species action. These disturbances are also enhanced by different xenobiotics, e.g. ethanol. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to examine green tea influence on total antioxidant status (TAS) and on composition and electric charge of erythrocyte membrane phospholipids in ethanol intoxicated rats of various ages. Antioxidant abilities of erythrocytes were estimated by measuring TAS. Qualitative and quantitative composition of phospholipids in the membrane was determined by HPLC, while the extent of erythrocytes lipid peroxidation was estimated by HPLC measurement of malondialdehyde (MDA) and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) levels. Electrophoresis was used to determine the surface charge density of the rat erythrocyte membrane. It was shown that the process of aging was accompanied by a decrease in TAS and in the total amount of phospholipids as well as by enhancement of lipid peroxidation and increase in surface charge density of erythrocyte membrane. Ethanol administration caused, in term, decrease in TAS and increase in the level of all phospholipids and lipid peroxidation products. Ethanol as well significantly enhanced changes in surface charge density of erythrocyte membrane. The ingestion of green tea partially prevented decrease in erythrocyte antioxidant abilities observed during aging and ethanol intoxication. Moreover, long-term drinking of green tea protects the structure of the erythrocytes membrane disturbed during aging process and/or chronic ethanol intoxication. 相似文献

In the yeast Dipodascus magnusii, which is auxotrophic for thiamine and biotin, during cultivation on glucose with excessive thiamine concentration, pyruvate metabolism was shown to result in the synthesis of fermentation products, namely, ethanol and, to a lesser extent, lactate. Substantial synthesis of ethyl acetate was also observed under these conditions. Introduction of nicotinic acid (NA) into the medium resulted in time separation of ethanol and lactate production. It was shown that cultivation of the yeast under biotin deficiency resulted in nearly complete suppression of aerobic production of ethanol and cessation of ethyl acetate synthesis, whereas lactate synthesis was activated as early as in the first hours of cultivation. Upon introduction of NA under these conditions, lactate concentration sharply increased. These results show that the combination of thiamine and biotin with other vitamins can stimulate utilization of the pyruvate pool in yeasts towards formation of considerable amounts of lactate, which is typical only of cells of higher eukaryotes and bacteria. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to examine whether malathion, a commonly used organophosphate (OP), might induce oxidative stress and cholinesterase (ChE) depression in saliva and plasma in rats following subchronic exposure mimicking human exposure. Malathion was administered orally at doses of 100, 500 and 1500 ppm for 4 weeks. Oxidative stress was determined by measuring the malondialdehyde concentration, the end product of lipid peroxidation, and assessing total antioxidant power. Four weeks oral administration of malathion at doses of 100 ppm, 500 ppm and 1500 ppm depressed plasma ChE activity to 45% (P<0.01), 48% (P<0.01) and 41% (P<0.01) of control, respectively. Malathion at doses of 100 ppm, 500 ppm and 1500 ppm depressed saliva ChE activity to 73% (P<0.01), 75% (P<0.01) and 78% (P<0.01) of control, respectively. Malathion at doses of 100 ppm, 500 ppm and 1500 ppm increased plasma antioxidant power by 33% (P<0.01), 59% (P<0.01) and 118% (P<0.01) of control, respectively. Malathion did not change saliva antioxidant power. Malathion at doses of 100 ppm, 500 ppm and 1500 ppm increased plasma thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) by 61% (P<0.01), 69% (P<0.01) and 63% (P<0.01) of control, respectively. Malathion at doses of 500 ppm and 1500 ppm increased saliva TBARS by 19% (P<0.01) and 22% (P<0.01) of control, respectively. Malathion (100 ppm) did not change saliva TBARS level. We concluded that in OP subchronic exposure, depression of ChE is accompanied by induction of oxidative stress that might be beneficial in monitoring OP toxicity. 相似文献
