Oxidative Damage of U937 Human Leukemic Cells Caused by Hydroxyl Radical Results in Singlet Oxygen Formation

The exposure of human cells to oxidative stress leads to the oxidation of biomolecules such as lipids, proteins and nuclei acids. In this study, the oxidation of lipids, proteins and DNA was studied after the addition of hydrogen peroxide and Fenton reagent to cell suspension containing human leukemic monocyte lymphoma cell line U937. EPR spin-trapping data showed that the addition of hydrogen peroxide to the cell suspension formed hydroxyl radical via Fenton reaction mediated by endogenous metals. The malondialdehyde HPLC analysis showed no lipid peroxidation after the addition of hydrogen peroxide, whereas the Fenton reagent caused significant lipid peroxidation. The formation of protein carbonyls monitored by dot blot immunoassay and the DNA fragmentation measured by comet assay occurred after the addition of both hydrogen peroxide and Fenton reagent. Oxidative damage of biomolecules leads to the formation of singlet oxygen as conformed by EPR spin-trapping spectroscopy and the green fluorescence of singlet oxygen sensor green detected by confocal laser scanning microscopy. It is proposed here that singlet oxygen is formed by the decomposition of high-energy intermediates such as dioxetane or tetroxide formed by oxidative damage of biomolecules.     

Chemiluminescence study on the peroxidation of linoleic acid initiated by the reaction of ferrous iron with hydrogen peroxide

Linoleic acid was used as a model system to study lipid peroxidation initiated by the reaction of ferrous iron with hydrogen peroxide. Low-level chemiluminescence of the peroxidation was measured with a high-sensitivity single-photon counter. It was found that the luminescence primarily comes from the dimol reaction of singlet oxygen and that the peak intensity of emission is a quadratic function of the concentration of either Fe2+ or H2O2, provided that the other Fenton reagent is in great excess. Under the same conditions, analysis on reaction kinetics shows a linear relationship between the maximal level of the initiator formed by the Fenton reaction and the initial concentration of Fe2+ or H2O2. This implies that the peak intensity of the chemiluminescence may be a good index of the maximal level of the initiator.     

The involvement of iron in lipid peroxidation. Importance of ferric to ferrous ratios in initiation

Intense lipid peroxidation of brain synaptosomes initiated with Fenton's reagent (H2O2 + Fe2+) began instantly upon addition of Fe2+ and preceded detectable OH. formation. Although mannitol or Tris partially blocked peroxidation, concentrations required were 10(3)-fold in excess of OH. actually formed, and inhibition by Tris was pH dependent. Lipid peroxidation also was initiated by either Fe2+ or Fe3+ alone, although significant lag phases (minutes) and slowed reaction rates were observed. Lag phases were dramatically reduced or nearly eliminated, and reaction rates were increased by a combination of Fe3+ and Fe2+. In this instance, lipid peroxidation initiated by optimal concentrations of H2O2 and Fe2+ could be mimicked or even surpassed by providing optimal ratios of Fe3+ to Fe2+. Peroxidation observed with Fe3+ alone was dependent upon trace amounts of contaminating Fe2+ in Fe3+ preparations. Optimal ratios of Fe3+:Fe2+ for the rapid initiation of lipid peroxidation were on order of 1:1 to 7:1. No OH. formation could be detected with this system. Although low concentrations of H2O2 or ascorbate increased lipid peroxidation by Fe2+ or Fe3+, respectively, high concentrations of H2O2 or ascorbate (in excess of iron) inhibited lipid peroxidation due to oxidative or reductive maintenance of iron exclusively in Fe2+ or Fe3+ form. Stimulation of lipid peroxidation by low concentrations of H2O2 or ascorbate was due to the oxidative or reductive creation of Fe3+:Fe2+ ratios. The data suggest that the absolute ratio of Fe3+ to Fe2+ was the primary determining factor for the initiation of lipid peroxidation reactions.     

The requirement for iron (III) in the initiation of lipid peroxidation by iron (II) and hydrogen peroxide

The initiation of lipid peroxidation by Fe2+ and H2O2 (Fenton's reagent) is often proposed to be mediated by the highly reactive hydroxyl radical. Using Fe2+, H2O2, and phospholipid liposomes as a model system, we have found that lipid peroxidation, as assessed by malondialdehyde formation, is not initiated by the hydroxyl radical, but rather requires Fe3+ and Fe2+. EPR spin trapping with 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide and the bleaching of para-nitrosodimethylaniline confirmed the generation of the hydroxyl radical in this system. Accordingly, catalase and the hydroxyl radical scavengers mannitol and benzoate efficiently inhibited the generation and the detection of hydroxyl radical. However, catalase, mannitol, and benzoate could either stimulate or inhibit lipid peroxidation. These unusual effects were found to be consistent with their ability to modulate the extent of Fe2+ oxidation by H2O2 and demonstrated that lipid peroxidation depends on the Fe3+:Fe2+ ratio, maximal initial rates occurring at 1:1. These studies suggest that the initiation of liposomal peroxidation by Fe2+ and H2O2 is mediated by an oxidant which requires both Fe3+ and Fe2+ and that the rate of the reaction is determined by the absolute Fe3+:Fe2+ ratio.     

Retardation of cell aging by lipid peroxidation

Different concentrations of Fe e+/vitamin C mixtures were used as initiators of lipid peroxidation in diploid fibroblasts from cultured human embryonic lung. Malondialdehyde (MDA) formation in the cell cultures was correlated directly with the concentrations of Fe²⁺ and vitamine C. Lipid peroxidation was associated with an increase in life-span, decrease in the population doubling time and increase in cellular DNA synthesis. The effects of lipid peroxidation varied inversely with the MDA level. These data showed that low levels of lipid peroxidation retarded several biological properties of cultured cells that are associated with cell aging.     

NADPH-dependent lipid peroxidation capacity in unfixed tissue sections: characterization of the pro-oxidizing conditions and optimization of the histochemical detection

Summary Factors which influence the iron-stimulated lipid peroxidation in rat liver have been studied by incubating unfixed cryostat sections with a pro-oxidant system and using an optimized histochemical detection method for lipid peroxidation products with 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid hydrazide and Fast Blue B. We used a method that was slightly different from the one described previously. The final reaction product was exclusively localized in the cytoplasm of liver parenchymal cells with a homogeneous distribution within the liver lobule. The absorbance maximum, as measured cytophotometrically, was found to be 550 nm. Maximum lipid peroxidation was observed when the pro-oxidant system contained 0.2 mm NADPH, 1 mm ADP and 15 μm FeCl₂. Some reaction product was found when NADPH was omitted. Iron concentrations higher than 180 μm prevented the formation of lipid peroxidation products in certain areas of the sections, whereas ADP concentrations higher than 1 mm inhibited the reaction in the whole section. A pH dependency was also observed, with the highest lipid peroxidation at pH 7.2. Optimum lipid peroxidation was induced by incubating for 30 min at 37°C with the pro-oxidant system. A linear relationship was found between the thickness of the sections (up to 20 μm) and the amount of lipid peroxidation products. The addition of scavengers of O2- (superoxide dismutase), hydrogen peroxide (catalase) and OH · (mannitol) to the first step medium did not affect the amount of final reaction product. These findings appear to confirm the hypothesis proposed for events occurring in isolated microsomes, leading to the formation of hydroperoxides and ultimately lipid peroxidation-derived carbonyls. The present method is a useful tool for studying the capacity of lipid peroxidation in tissues under different (patho)physiological conditions.     

Comparison of two methods used to analyse lipid peroxidation from Vaccinium myrtillus (L.) during snow removal, reacclimation and cold acclimation.

Malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration is a widely used method to analyse lipid peroxidation in biological material. In plant tissues, however, certain compounds (anthocyanins, carbohydrates) may interfere with measurements which may lead to an overestimation of the MDA levels. Two methods were compared for analysing lipid peroxidation, either uncorrected or corrected for interfering compounds. The comparison was performed in three separate experiments with respect to cold treatments (snow removal in winter, reacclimation in summer and cold acclimation in autumn) in bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus L.). During winter and autumn the methods seem to measure different compounds, but during active growth in the summer the difference between the methods was less. This is obviously due to carbohydrates which act as cryoprotectants and increase in concentration during cold acclimation as well as due to the anthocyanins. It is thus suggested that the validity of the uncorrected method to measure MDA and thereby lipid peroxidation is best in plant tissue which is in an active growth state.     

Oxidative stress in plant cell culture: a role in production of beta-thujaplicin by Cupresssus lusitanica suspension culture

Oxidative stress is a common physiological stress that often challenges plants. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are major factors in oxidative stress that significantly affect plant cell growth and secondary metabolism. Here we used beta-thujaplicin production by Cupressus lusitanica cell culture as an example to demonstrate the common occurrence of oxidative stress in cultivated plant cells and its effect on multiple aspects of cell culture process. C. lusitanica cells cultivated under Fe(2+) stress generate a significant level of ROS, and oxidative stress also occurs at late stages of C. lusitanica cell cultures under normal conditions. ROS production inhibited cell growth, induced lipid peroxidation and cell death, and enhanced ethylene and beta-thujaplicin production. It is demonstrated that Fe(2+) stress enhances ROS production via the Fenton reaction and promotes beta-thujaplicin production via ROS-induced lipid peroxidation that may activate cyclic oxylipin and ethylene pathways. Results further indicate that H(2)O(2) is a positive signal for beta-thujaplicin production, whereas superoxide anion radical (O(2) (- )) negatively affects beta-thujaplicin induction and strongly induces cell death. The study suggests that evaluating the oxidative stress and plant responses in a cell culture process is very necessary and important for understanding biochemical processes and for gaining the maximal productivity of target secondary metabolites.     

Histological and Histochemical Uses of Periodic Acid

Periodic acid acts upon the 1,2 glycol linkage (-CHOH -CHOH-) of carbohydrates in tissue sections to produce aldehyde (RCHO+RCHO) which can be colored with Schiff s reagent. The method can be used on frozen or paraffin sections and is useful as a reaction for carbohydrates of tissues: glycogen (in paraffin section only), mucin, basement membrane, reticulin, the colloid of the pituitary stalk and thyroid, some of the acidophile cells of the human anterior hypophysis, the granular cells of the renal arteriole, etc.

In abnormal tissues, it colors many of the “hyaline” materials— amyloid infiltrations, arteriolosclerotic hyaline, colloid droplets, mitotic figures, etc.

The histochemical uses of the periodic-acid-Schiff's reagent (PAS) need careful control because of the possibility of attachment of iodate or periodate to tissue constitutents, producing a recoloration of the Schiff's reagent. Whenever possible the positive reacting material should be further identified by other methods since Lison showed other substances besides aldehydes can recolorize SchifFs reagent.     

Lipid peroxidation in mitochondria and microsomes from adult and fetal rat tissues

Pregnant female Wistar rats that received a control (100 ppm Zn) or a Zn-deficient diet (1.5 ppm Zn) from d 0 to 21, or nonpregnant normally fed female rats without or with five daily oral doses of 300 mg/kg salicylic acid were used for the experiments. In isolated mitochondria or microsomes from various maternal and fetal tissues, lipid peroxidation was determined as malondialdehyde formation measured by means of the thiobarbiturate method. Zn deficiency increased lipid peroxidation in mitochondria and microsomes from maternal and fetal liver, maternal kidney, maternal lung microsomes, and fetal lung mitochondria. Lipid peroxidation in fetal microsomes was very low. Zn deficiency produced a further reduction of lipid peroxidation in fetal liver microsomes. Salicylate increased lipid peroxidation in liver mitochondria and microsomes after addition in vitro and after application in vivo. The increase of lipid peroxidation by salicylate may be caused by two mechanisms: an increased cellular Fe uptake that, in turn, can increase lipid peroxidation and chelating Fe, in analogy to the effect of ADP in lipid peroxidation. The latter effect of salicylate is particularly expressed at increased Fe content.
