We provide an integrative interpretation of neuroglial metabolic coupling including the presence of subcellular compartmentation of pyruvate and monocarboxylate recycling through the plasma membrane of both neurons and glial cells. The subcellular compartmentation of pyruvate allows neurons and astrocytes to select between glucose and lactate as alternative substrates, depending on their relative extracellular concentration and the operation of a redox switch. This mechanism is based on the inhibition of glycolysis at the level of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase by NAD(+) limitation, under sufficiently reduced cytosolic NAD(+)/NADH redox conditions. Lactate and pyruvate recycling through the plasma membrane allows the return to the extracellular medium of cytosolic monocarboxylates enabling their transcellular, reversible, exchange between neurons and astrocytes. Together, intracellular pyruvate compartmentation and monocarboxylate recycling result in an effective transcellular coupling between the cytosolic NAD(+)/NADH redox states of both neurons and glial cells. Following glutamatergic neurotransmission, increased glutamate uptake by the astrocytes is proposed to augment glycolysis and tricarboxylic acid cycle activity, balancing to a reduced cytosolic NAD(+)/NADH in the glia. Reducing equivalents are transferred then to the neuron resulting in a reduced neuronal NAD(+)/NADH redox state. This may eventually switch off neuronal glycolysis, favoring the oxidation of extracellular lactate in the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) equilibrium and in the neuronal tricarboxylic acid cycles. Finally, pyruvate derived from neuronal lactate oxidation, may return to the extracellular space and to the astrocyte, restoring the basal redox state and beginning a new loop of the lactate/pyruvate transcellular coupling cycle. Transcellular redox coupling operates through the plasma membrane transporters of monocarboxylates, similarly to the intracellular redox shuttles coupling the cytosolic and mitochondrial redox states through the transporters of the inner mitochondrial membrane. Finally, transcellular redox coupling mechanisms may couple glycolytic and oxidative zones in other heterogeneous tissues including muscle and tumors. 相似文献

In this communication, we describe a novel and facile method for the immobilization of NAD(+)/NADH on an electrode surface using a hydrophobic ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide ([C4mim][Tf(2)N]). By taking advantage of the insolubility of NAD(+)/NADH in hydrophobic ionic liquids, it is expected that NAD(+)/NADH can be retained on the electrode's surface. Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and NAD(+)/NADH were immobilized with a gelatin hydrogel on an electrode that was modified with an electropolymerized ruthenium complex containing 5-amino-1,10-phenanthroline (pAPRu) as a mediator for NADH oxidation. The (ADH, NAD(+))/pAPRu-immobilized electrode exhibited the electrocatalytic oxidation of ethanol in [C4mim][Tf(2)N]. The obtained catalytic current in [C4mim][Tf(2)N] was comparable to that in buffer solution containing NAD(+). It was confirmed by UV-vis spectroscopy that NAD(+) did not dissolve in the [C4mim][Tf(2)N] and was retained on the electrode's surface. Furthermore, we succeeded in constructing an ethanol/O(2) biofuel cell comprised of an (ADH, NAD(+))/pAPRu anode and a bilirubin oxidase cathode using [C4mim][Tf(2)N] as an electrolyte. 相似文献

1. The concentrations of the oxidized and reduced substrates of the lactate-, beta-hydroxybutyrate- and glutamate-dehydrogenase systems were measured in rat livers freeze-clamped as soon as possible after death. The substrates of these dehydrogenases are likely to be in equilibrium with free NAD(+) and NADH, and the ratio of the free dinucleotides can be calculated from the measured concentrations of the substrates and the equilibrium constants (Holzer, Schultz & Lynen, 1956; Bücher & Klingenberg, 1958). The lactate-dehydrogenase system reflects the [NAD(+)]/[NADH] ratio in the cytoplasm, the beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase that in the mitochondrial cristae and the glutamate dehydrogenase that in the mitochondrial matrix. 2. The equilibrium constants of lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27), beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.30) and malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37) were redetermined for near-physiological conditions (38 degrees ; I0.25). 3. The mean [NAD(+)]/[NADH] ratio of rat-liver cytoplasm was calculated as 725 (pH7.0) in well-fed rats, 528 in starved rats and 208 in alloxan-diabetic rats. 4. The [NAD(+)]/[NADH] ratio for the mitochondrial matrix and cristae gave virtually identical values in the same metabolic state. This indicates that beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase and glutamate dehydrogenase share a common pool of dinucleotide. 5. The mean [NAD(+)]/[NADH] ratio within the liver mitochondria of well-fed rats was about 8. It fell to about 5 in starvation and rose to about 10 in alloxan-diabetes. 6. The [NAD(+)]/[NADH] ratios of cytoplasm and mitochondria are thus greatly different and do not necessarily move in parallel when the metabolic state of the liver changes. 7. The ratios found for the free dinucleotides differ greatly from those recorded for the total dinucleotides because much more NADH than NAD(+) is protein-bound. 8. The bearing of these findings on various problems, including the following, is discussed: the number of NAD(+)-NADH pools in liver cells; the applicability of the method to tissues other than liver; the transhydrogenase activity of glutamate dehydrogenase; the physiological significance of the difference of the redox states of mitochondria and cytoplasm; aspects of the regulation of the redox state of cell compartments; the steady-state concentration of mitochondrial oxaloacetate; the relations between the redox state of cell compartments and ketosis. 相似文献

1. The redox state of the NAD couple of rat liver mitochondria, as measured by the [beta-hydroxybutyrate]/[acetoacetate] ratio, rapidly changed in the direction of oxidation during the preparation of homogenates in a saline medium. The value of the [beta-hydroxybutyrate]/[acetoacetate] ratio fell from 2.3 to 0.15 in 10min. EDTA diminished the fall and succinate prevented it. 2. The redox state of the rat liver cytoplasm, as measured by the [lactate]/[pyruvate] ratio, changed slightly in the direction of reduction during the preparation of homogenate. This was prevented by succinate. 3. In unsupplemented homogenates the differences in the redox states of mitochondria and cytoplasm decreased. Succinate and EDTA together maintained the differences within the physiological range. A measure of the ability of the mitochondria to maintain different redox states in mitochondria and cytoplasm is the value of the expression [lactate][acetoacetate]/[pyruvate][beta-hydroxybutyrate]. If there are no differences in the redox states of the NAD in the two cell compartments the value of the expression is 444 at 37 degrees . The value in the intact rat liver is between 4.7 and 21. 4. alpha-Oxoglutarate or glutamate were still more effective than succinate in maintaining high [beta-hydroxybutyrate]/[acetoacetate] ratios in the homogenates because these substrates supply a reducing agent of NAD(+) and, through succinate, an inhibitor of the oxidation of NADH. 5. When supplemented with alpha-oxoglutarate and EDTA, homogenates readily adjust the redox state of the beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase system after it has been upset by the addition of either acetoacetate or beta-hydroxybutyrate. 6. Amytal and rotenone raised the value of the [beta-hydroxybutyrate]/[acetoacetate] ratio. This is taken to indicate that the reduction of acetoacetate in the homogenates was not an energy-linked process. 7. 2,4-Dinitrophenol shifted the [beta-hydroxybutyrate]/[acetoacetate] ratio in the presence of succinate in favour of oxidation because it inhibited the oxidation of succinate and accelerated the oxidation of NADH. 8. Rotenone increased the rate of ketone-body formation of liver homogenates, though it decreased the rate of oxygen uptake. 相似文献

Sir2 regulates skeletal muscle differentiation as a potential sensor of the redox state 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18

Sir2 is a NAD(+)-dependent histone deacetylase that controls gene silencing, cell cycle, DNA damage repair, and life span. Prompted by the observation that the [NAD(+)]/[NADH] ratio is subjected to dynamic fluctuations in skeletal muscle, we have tested whether Sir2 regulates muscle gene expression and differentiation. Sir2 forms a complex with the acetyltransferase PCAF and MyoD and, when overexpressed, retards muscle differentiation. Conversely, cells with decreased Sir2 differentiate prematurely. To inhibit myogenesis, Sir2 requires its NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase activity. The [NAD(+)]/[NADH] ratio decreases as muscle cells differentiate, while an increased [NAD(+)]/[NADH] ratio inhibits muscle gene expression. Cells with reduced Sir2 levels are less sensitive to the inhibition imposed by an elevated [NAD(+)]/[NADH] ratio. These results indicate that Sir2 regulates muscle gene expression and differentiation by possibly functioning as a redox sensor. In response to exercise, food intake, and starvation, Sir2 may sense modifications of the redox state and promptly modulate gene expression. 相似文献

The goal was to determine whether endogenous cytosolic NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) preferentially uses NADPH or NADH in intact pulmonary arterial endothelial cells in culture. The approach was to manipulate the redox status of the NADH/NAD(+) and NADPH/NADP(+) redox pairs in the cytosolic compartment using treatment conditions targeting glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway alone or with lactate, and to evaluate the impact on the intact cell NQO1 activity. Cells were treated with 2-deoxyglucose, iodoacetate, or epiandrosterone in the absence or presence of lactate, NQO1 activity was measured in intact cells using duroquinone as the electron acceptor, and pyridine nucleotide redox status was measured in total cell KOH extracts by high-performance liquid chromatography. 2-Deoxyglucose decreased NADH/NAD(+) and NADPH/NADP(+) ratios by 59 and 50%, respectively, and intact cell NQO1 activity by 74%; lactate restored NADH/NAD(+), but not NADPH/NADP(+) or NQO1 activity. Iodoacetate decreased NADH/NAD(+) but had no detectable effect on NADPH/NADP(+) or NQO1 activity. Epiandrosterone decreased NQO1 activity by 67%, and although epiandrosterone alone did not alter the NADPH/NADP(+) or NADH/NAD(+) ratio, when the NQO1 electron acceptor duroquinone was also present, NADPH/NADP(+) decreased by 84% with no impact on NADH/NAD(+). Duroquinone alone also decreased NADPH/NADP(+) but not NADH/NAD(+). The results suggest that NQO1 activity is more tightly coupled to the redox status of the NADPH/NADP(+) than NADH/NAD(+) redox pair, and that NADPH is the endogenous NQO1 electron donor. Parallel studies of pulmonary endothelial transplasma membrane electron transport (TPMET), another redox process that draws reducing equivalents from the cytosol, confirmed previous observations of a correlation with the NADH/NAD(+) ratio. 相似文献

Two different NAD(P)H dehydrogenases could be demonstrated in the blue-green alga, Aphanocapsa. Both function as quinone reductases using benzoquinone as electron acceptor. One, which was found in the soluble fraction, was NADH specific and showed high sensitivity to rotenone, thenoyltrifluoroacetone and o-phenanthroline. The second dehydrogenase was membrane-bound and used NADH as well as NADPH as substrates. Inhibition by rotenone and o-phenanthroline was less pronounced with the bound enzyme than with the soluble enzyme. Based on studies with NADH or NADPH, the membrane-bound enzyme apparently was associated with a low-temperature EPR signal at g=1.92 in the reduced state, indicative of an iron-sulfur center. The membrane-bound dehydrogenase was solubilized with Triton X-100 and partially purified. This preparation was used for studies of enzyme kinetics and acceptor specificity.Abbreviations DBMIB

Imaging cytosolic NADH-NAD(+) redox state with a genetically encoded fluorescent biosensor 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
NADH is a key metabolic cofactor whose sensitive and specific detection in the cytosol of live cells has been difficult. We constructed a fluorescent biosensor of the cytosolic NADH-NAD(+) redox state by combining a circularly permuted GFP T-Sapphire with a bacterial NADH-binding protein, Rex. Although the initial construct reported [NADH] × [H(+)] / [NAD(+)], its pH sensitivity was eliminated by mutagenesis. The engineered biosensor Peredox reports cytosolic NADH:NAD(+) ratios and can be calibrated with exogenous lactate and pyruvate. We demonstrated its utility in several cultured and primary cell types. We found that glycolysis opposed the lactate dehydrogenase equilibrium to produce a reduced cytosolic NADH-NAD(+) redox state. We also observed different redox states in primary mouse astrocytes and neurons, consistent with hypothesized metabolic differences. Furthermore, using high-content image analysis, we monitored NADH responses to PI3K pathway inhibition in hundreds of live cells. As an NADH reporter, Peredox should enable better understanding of bioenergetics. 相似文献

The coenzyme NAD plays a major role in metabolism as a key redox carrier and signaling molecule but current measurement techniques cannot distinguish between different compartment pools, between free and protein-bound forms and/or between NAD(H) and NADP(H). Local free NAD/NADH ratios can be determined from product/substrate ratios of suitable near-equilibrium redox reactions but the application of this principle is often precluded by uncertainties regarding enzyme activity, localization and coenzyme specificity of dehydrogenases. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we circumvented these issues by expressing a bacterial mannitol-1-phosphate 5-dehydrogenase and determining the cytosolic free NAD/NADH ratio from the measured [fructose-6-phosphate]/[mannitol-1-phosphate] ratio. Under aerobic glucose-limited conditions we estimated a cytosolic free NAD/NADH ratio between 101(+/-14) and 320(+/-45), assuming the cytosolic pH is between 7.0 and 6.5, respectively. These values are more than 10-fold higher than the measured whole-cell total NAD/NADH ratio of 7.5(+/-2.5). Using a thermodynamic analysis of central glycolysis we demonstrate that the former are thermodynamically feasible, while the latter is not. Furthermore, we applied this novel system to study the short-term metabolic responses to perturbations. We found that the cytosolic free NAD-NADH couple became more reduced rapidly (timescale of seconds) upon a pulse of glucose (electron-donor) and that this could be reversed by the addition of acetaldehyde (electron-acceptor). In addition, these dynamics occurred without significant changes in whole-cell total NAD and NADH. This approach provides a new experimental tool for quantitative physiology and opens new possibilities in the study of energy and redox metabolism in S. cerevisiae. The same strategy should also be applicable to other microorganisms. 相似文献

辅酶NADH/NAD+在细胞内氧化还原反应中起着重要的作用,是细胞生长和能量代谢必不可少的辅因子。调节微生物胞内NADH/NAD+的比率是定向改变微生物代谢,高效获得目标代谢产物的有效手段。嗜热厌氧乙醇菌(Thermoanaerobacter ethanolicus)是高温厌氧菌中乙醇产量较高的代表性菌株,本文利用不同氧化还原态的碳源改变T.ethanolicus的胞内NADH/NAD+含量和比例,进而研究了其对细胞生长、代谢产物分布的影响。以不同比例的葡萄糖/甘露醇作为混合碳源发酵,胞内氧化还原水平、细胞的生长特性、代谢产物都发生了不同程度的差异,以葡萄糖作为唯一碳源进行培养时,T.ethanolicus生长良好,乙醇产量为0.79g/L,但胞内NADH/NAD+比值和乙醇/乙酸的比值都比较低,分别为0.47和4.82;随着葡萄糖在混合碳源中比例的下降,NADH/NAD+比值增高,发酵产物中乙醇/乙酸比值也呈现上升的趋势。而以甘露醇作为唯一碳源时,发酵产物中乙醇浓度为0.389g/L,NADH/NAD+比值和乙醇/乙酸的比值分别为1.04和16.0。 相似文献

Complex I (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase) from bovine heart mitochondria contains 45 different subunits and nine redox cofactors. NADH is oxidized by a noncovalently bound flavin mononucleotide (FMN), then seven iron-sulfur clusters transfer the two electrons to quinone, and four protons are pumped across the inner mitochondrial membrane. Here, we use protein film voltammetry to investigate the mechanisms of NADH oxidation and NAD+ reduction in the simplest catalytically active subcomplex of complex I, the flavoprotein (Fp) subcomplex. The Fp subcomplex was prepared using chromatography and contained the 51 and 24 kDa subunits, the FMN, one [4Fe-4S] cluster, and one [2Fe-2S] cluster. The reduction potential of the FMN in the enzyme's active site is lower than that of free FMN (thus, the oxidized state of the FMN is most strongly bound) and close to the reduction potential of NAD+. Consequently, the catalytic transformation is reversible. Electrocatalytic NADH oxidation by subcomplex Fp can be explained by a model comprising substrate mass transport, the Michaelis-Menten equation, and interfacial electron transfer kinetics. The difference between the "catalytic" potential and the FMN potential suggests that the flavin is reoxidized before NAD+ is released or that intramolecular electron transfer from the flavin to the [4Fe-4S] cluster influences the catalytic rate. NAD+ reduction displays a marked activity maximum, below which the catalytic rate decreases sharply as the driving force increases. Two possible models reproduce the observed catalytic waveshapes: one describing an effect from reducing the proximal [2Fe-2S] cluster and the other the enhanced catalytic ability of the semiflavin state. 相似文献

The maximum redox potential difference between the NAD+/NADH couple and the succinate/fumarate couple generated during ATP-energized reduction of NAD+ by succinate in submitochondrial particles was measured, together with the electrochemical potential difference for protons (delta mu approximately H+). The presence of cyanide, the time-independence of the redox potential difference and the irrelevance of the initial redox state of the NAD+/NADH couple ensured that the experimental situation corresponded to a 'static-head condition' with delta mu approximately H+ as the input force and the redox potential difference as the output force, the flow of electrons having reached dynamic equilibrium. Consequently, the observed value of 1.6 for the ratio delta Ge/delta mu approximately H+ is interpreted as indicating that the leads to H+/e- stoicheiometry at 'site 1' is 1.5 and that therefore the mechanism of the proton pump at 'site 1' is not of the group-translocation type (no direct leads to e - leads to H+ coupling). 相似文献

A multifunctional cell surface protein with NADH oxidase (NOX) activity and capable of oxidizing hydroquinones is located at the exterior of the cell and is shed in soluble form into sera. The oxidase appears to function as a terminal oxidase of a trans plasma membrane electron transport chain consisting of a NAD(P)H-ubiquinone reductase at the cytosolic membrane surface, possibly a b-type cytochrome, ubiquinone and the oxidase. Hyperactivity or conditions that interrupt ordered 2H+ + 2e- transport from NAD(P)H or hydroquinone to molecular oxygen and other acceptors at the external cell surface may result in the generation of superoxide. The latter may serve to propagate aging-related redox changes both to adjacent cells and circulating blood components. A circulating NOX activity form associated with aging and the reduction of cytochrome c by sera of aged patients that is partially inhibited by ubiquinone are described. 相似文献

1. The midpoint potentials of the various iron-sulphur centres in Site I were determined at different pH values by the technique of redox potentiometry. An interesting feature is the pH-dependence of Centre N-2, the highest potential component of the NADH dehydrogenase segment of the respiratory chain. 2. The apparent midpoint potentials of Centre N-2 (NADH dehydrogenase) and S-1 (succinate dehydrogenase) and their pH-dependence was also determined by using the succinate/fumarate couple. Again Centre N-2 is pH-dependent in midpoint potential, and Centre S-1 is not. The results obtained by titrating with the succinate/fumarate couple are in quantitative agreement with those obtained for these centres by redox potentiometry. 3. Oxidation-reduction titrations of iron-sulphur centres with the couple NADH/NAD+ and an analogue APADH/APAD+ in the presence of rotenone gave results substantially different from those obtained by redox potentiometry; these differences may be due to the mechanism of action of NADH dehydrogenase and its specific interaction with NADH. 5. The addition of ATP to an NAD+/NADH-poised system induces an uncoupler-sensitive oxidation of Centre N-4. 相似文献

Complex I (NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase) can form superoxide during forward electron flow (NADH-oxidizing) or, at sufficiently high protonmotive force, during reverse electron transport from the ubiquinone (Q) pool (NAD(+)-reducing). We designed an assay system to allow titration of the redox state of the superoxide-generating site during reverse electron transport in rat skeletal muscle mitochondria: a protonmotive force generated by ATP hydrolysis, succinate:malonate to alter electron supply and modulate the redox state of the Q pool, and inhibition of complex III to prevent QH(2) oxidation via the Q cycle. Stepwise oxidation of the QH(2)/Q pool by increasing malonate concentration slowed the rates of both reverse electron transport and rotenone-sensitive superoxide production by complex I. However, the superoxide production rate was not uniquely related to the resultant potential of the NADH/NAD(+) redox couple. Thus, there is a superoxide producer during reverse electron transport at complex I that responds to Q pool redox state and is not in equilibrium with the NAD reduction state. In contrast, superoxide production during forward electron transport in the presence of rotenone was uniquely related to NAD redox state. These results support a two-site model of complex I superoxide production; one site in equilibrium with the NAD pool, presumably the flavin of the FMN moiety (site I(F)) and the other dependent not only on NAD redox state, but also on protonmotive force and the reduction state of the Q pool, presumably a semiquinone in the Q-binding site (site I(Q)). 相似文献

Hybrid-cluster proteins ('prismane proteins') have previously been isolated and characterized from strictly anaerobic sulfate-reducing bacteria. These proteins contain two types of Fe/S clusters unique in biological systems: a [4Fe-4S] cubane cluster with spin-admixed S = 3/2 ground-state paramagnetism and a novel type of hybrid [4Fe-2S-2O] cluster, which can attain four redox states. Genomic sequencing reveals that genes encoding putative hybrid-cluster proteins are present in a range of bacterial and archaeal species. In this paper we describe the isolation and spectroscopic characterization of the hybrid-cluster protein from Escherichia coli. EPR spectroscopy shows the presence of a hybrid cluster in the E. coli protein with characteristics similar to those in the proteins of anaerobic sulfate reducers. EPR spectra of the reduced E. coli hybrid-cluster protein, however, give evidence for the presence of a [2Fe-2S] cluster instead of a [4Fe-4S] cluster. The hcp gene encoding the hybrid-cluster protein in E. coli and other facultative anaerobes occurs, in contrast with hcp genes in obligate anaerobic bacteria and archaea, in a small operon with a gene encoding a putative NADH oxidoreductase. This NADH oxidoreductase was also isolated and shown to contain FAD and a [2Fe-2S] cluster as cofactors. It catalysed the reduction of the hybrid-cluster protein with NADH as an electron donor. Midpoint potentials (25 degrees C, pH 7.5) for the Fe/S clusters in both proteins indicate that electrons derived from the oxidation of NADH (Em NADH/NAD+ couple: -320 mV) are transferred along the [2Fe-2S] cluster of the NADH oxidoreductase (Em = -220 mV) and the [2Fe-2S] cluster of the hybrid-cluster protein (Em = -35 mV) to the hybrid cluster (Em = -50, +85 and +365 mV for the three redox transitions). The physiological function of the hybrid-cluster protein has not yet been elucidated. The protein is only detected in the facultative anaerobes E. coli and Morganella morganii after cultivation under anaerobic conditions in the presence of nitrate or nitrite, suggesting a role in nitrate-and/or nitrite respiration. 相似文献

Changes in several parameters involved in the control of metabolism were correlated with changes in glucose utilization in rat brain slices incubated under conditions which reduced glucose oxidation by 40 to 70%. The parameters included: the concentrations of ATP, ADP, AMP, and the adenylate energy charge; the cytoplasmic oxidation-reduction state ([NAD+]/[NADH]), determined from the [pyruvate]/[lactate] equilibrium; the mitochondrial oxidation-reduction state, determined from the [NH4+] ]2-oxoglutarate]/[glutamate] Equilibrium; the cytoplasmic and mitochondrial oxidation-reduction potentials (in volts), calculated from the respective [NAD+]/ [NADH] ratios using the Nernst equation; and the difference between the cytoplasmic and mitochondrial [NAD+]/[NADH] potentials. The conversion of [3, 4-14C] glucose to 14CO2 and of [U-14C] glucose to acetylcholine and to lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids by the brain slices were also determined. The values obtained by subtracting the mitochondrial from the cytoplasmic [NAD+1/[NADH] potentials correlated more closely with glucose utilization than did other parameters, under the conditions studied. For the synthesis of acetylcholine, the correlation coefficient was 0.96, and for the production of 14CO2 from [3, 4-14C] glucose it was 0.82. 相似文献

We characterized dopamine toxicity in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells as a direct effect of dopamine on cell reductive power, measured as NADH and NADPH cell content. In cell incubations with 100 or 500 microM dopamine, the accumulation of dopamine inside the cell reached a maximum after 6 h. The decrease in cell viability was 40% and 75%, respectively, after 24 h, and was not altered by MAO inhibition with tranylcypromine. Dopamine was metabolized to DOPAC by mitochondrial MAO and, at 500 microM concentration, significantly reduced mitochondrial potential and oxygen consumption. This DA concentration caused only a slight increase in cell peroxidation in the absence of Fe(III), but a dramatic decrease in NADH and NADPH cell content and a concomitant decrease in total cell NAD(P)H/NAD(P)+ and GSH/GSSG and in mitochondrial NADH/NAD+ ratios. Dopaminechrome, a product of dopamine oxidation, was found to be a MAO-A inhibitor and a strong oxidizer of NADH and NADPH in a cell-free system. We conclude that dopamine may affect NADH and NADPH oxidation directly. When the intracellular concentrations of NAD(P)H and oxidized dopamine are similar, NAD(P)H triggers a redox cycle with dopamine that leads to its own consumption. The time-course of NADH and NADPH oxidation by dopamine was assessed in cell-free assays: NAD(P)H concentration decreased at the same time as dopamine oxidation advanced. The break in cell redox equilibrium, not excluding the involvement of free oxygen radicals, could be sufficient to explain the toxicity of dopamine in dopaminergic neurons. 相似文献

Accumulating data support the view that sepsis is associated with an acquired intrinsic derangement in the ability of cells to consume O(2), a phenomenon that has been termed "cytopathic hypoxia." We sought to use an in vitro "reductionist" model system using cultured cells stimulated with proinflammatory cytokines to test the hypothesis that cytopathic hypoxia is mediated, at least in part, by depletion of intracellular levels of NAD(+)/NADH secondary to activation of the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). We measured O(2) consumption by Caco-2 enterocytes growing on microcarrier beads after cells were incubated for 24 h under control conditions or with cytomix, a mixture of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1beta, and interferon-gamma. Immunostimulated cells consumed O(2) at about one-half the rate of control cells, but this effect was largely prevented if any one of the following pharmacological agents was present during the period of incubation with cytomix: 4,5-dihydroxy-1,3-benzene disulfonic acid, a superoxide radical anion scavenger; 2-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide, a nitric oxide scavenger; 5,10,15,20- tetrakis-[4-sulfonatophenyl]-porphyrinato-iron[III], a peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) decomposition catalyst; urate, an ONOO(-) scavenger; 3-aminobenzamide, a PARP inhibitor; or N-(6-oxo-5,6-dihydrophenanthridin-2-yl)-N,N-dimethylacetamide HCl, a chemically dissimilar and more potent PARP inhibitor. The decrease in O(2) uptake induced by cytomix was associated with decreased cellular levels of NAD(+)/NADH. The decrease in cellular NAD(+)/NADH content and the decrease in O(2) uptake induced by cytomix were completely abrogated if liposome-encapsulated NAD(+) was added to the cultures during immunostimulation. Empty liposomes also increased O(2) uptake by immunostimulated Caco-2 cells, but much less effectively than liposomes containing NAD(+). These data are consistent with the view that enterocytes exposed to proinflammatory cytokines consume less O(2) due to NAD(+)/NADH depletion secondary to activation of PARP by ONOO(-) or other oxidants. 相似文献
