The purpose of our study was to investigate underlying basic mechanisms of hypothermia-induced cardioprotection during oxidative stress in a cardiomyocyte cell culture model. For hypothermic treatment we cooled H9c2 cardiomyocytes to 20 °C, maintained 20 min at 20 °C during which short-term oxidative damage was inflicted with 2 mM H2O2, followed by rewarming to 37 °C. Later on, we analyzed lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), caspase-3 cleavage, reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial activity, intracellular ATP production, cytoprotective signal molecules as well as DNA damage. Hypothermia decreased H2O2 damage in cardiomyocytes as demonstrated in a lower LDH release, less caspase-3 cleavage and less M30 CytoDeath staining. After rewarming H2O2 damaged cells demonstrated a significantly higher reduction rate of intracellular ROS compared to normothermic H2O2 damaged cardiomyocytes. This was in line with a significantly greater mitochondrial dehydrogenase activity and higher intracellular ATP content in cooled and rewarmed cells. Moreover, hypothermia preserved cell viability by up-regulation of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and a reduction of p53 phosphorylation. DNA damage, proven by PARP-1 cleavage and H2AX phosphorylation, was significantly reduced by hypothermia. In conclusion, we could demonstrate that hypothermia protects cardiomyocytes during oxidative stress by preventing apoptosis via inhibiting mitochondrial dysfunction and DNA damage. 相似文献

Stable H2O2-resistant variants of Chinese hamster fibroblasts demonstrate increases in catalase activity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-resistant variants of the Chinese hamster ovary HA-1 line have been derived by culturing cells in progressively higher concentrations of H2O2 (greater than 200 days, in 50-800 microM H2O2). The H2O2-resistant phenotype has been stable for over 60 passages (240 days) following removal from the H2O2 stress. The resistant cells demonstrate both increased capacity to deplete exogenously added H2O2 from the growth medium and increased catalase activity. H2O2 resistance correlates well with catalase activity. An increase in chromosome number occurred in the cells adapted to 200-800 microM H2O2, but increases in aneuploidy and tetraploidy were not necessary for resistance. These results suggest that adaptation to chronic oxidative stress mediated by H2O2 in mammalian cells is accompanied by a stable heritable change in expression of catalase activity. 相似文献

Obesity is a known risk factor for induction of myocardial infarction, but, paradoxically, may also confer a protective effect against subsequent remodeling leading to heart failure. In this study, we investigated the effect of leptin, the product of the obese (ob) gene, on cardiomyocyte apoptosis, a well-characterized component of cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction. Exposing H9c2 cells to H(2)O(2) decreased cell viability, and this was attenuated by pretreating cells with leptin for 1 h, but not 24 h. Leptin also attenuated the ability of H(2)O(2) to increase phosphatidylserine exposure and annexin V binding. Further investigation of underlying mechanisms of leptin's protective effect demonstrated that the H(2)O(2)-induced decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential (Psi) leading to cytochrome c release was attenuated by leptin pretreatment, and this was associated with reduced translocation of the pro-apoptotic Bax protein to the mitochondrial membrane. Finally, leptin prevented H(2)O(2)-induced increases in caspase-3 cleavage and activity, although again 24 h leptin pretreatment did not confer significant protection. In summary, we have demonstrated that acute leptin pretreatment mediates anti-apoptotic effects in H9c2 rat cardiomyocytes, which may be of significance in clarifying the direct impact of leptin on the heart. 相似文献

Introduction
Synovial hyperplasia is a main feature of rheumatoid arthritis pathology that leads to cartilage and bone damage in the inflamed joints. Impaired apoptosis of resident synoviocytes is pivotal in this process. Apoptosis resistance seems to involve defects in the extrinsic and intrinsic apoptotic pathways. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of PI3Kinase/Akt and the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway in the resistance of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) fibroblast like synovial cells (FLS) to Fas-mediated apoptosis. 相似文献5.

Loss of cardiomyocytes by apoptosis is proposed to cause ventricular remodeling and heart failure. Reactive oxygen species-induced apoptosis of cardiomyocytes has been reported to play an important role in many types of pathological processes of the heart. We investigated whether angiopoietin-1 (Ang1) has direct cytoprotective effects on cardiomyocytes against oxidative stress. Cultured H9c2 cells (cardiomyocytes) were treated with hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)). Apoptosis was evaluated by flow cytometry, TUNEL assay and DNA laddering. The H(2)O(2) treatment caused typical apoptosis of H9c2 cells in a time-dependent manner. Transfection of recombinant adenovirus expressing Ang1 resulted in a sustained phosphorylation of AKT and inhibition of H(2)O(2)-induced apoptosis in H9c2 cells. This effect could be reversed by AKT inhibition. These results suggest that Ang1 protects cardiomyocytes from oxidative stress-induced apoptosis by regulating the activity of AKT. 相似文献

AtMEK1 mediates stress-induced gene expression of CAT1 catalase by triggering H2O2 production in Arabidopsis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Catalase and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) have been extensively studied for their roles in various stress responses. However, little is known about the triggering mechanisms for stress-induced catalase gene expression or about H(2)O(2) production as a stress signal. It is reported here that ABA-, drought-, and salt stress-induced gene expression of CAT1 catalase is mediated by AtMEK1, an Arabidopsis MAPK kinase, by triggering H(2)O(2) signal production. Both CAT1 expression and AtMEK1 activity were activated by ABA, drought, and salt stresses. The mek1 mutant totally blocked stress-induced CAT1 expression and, interestingly, stress-induced H(2)O(2) production was also blocked. Over-expression of AtMEK1 significantly promoted stress-induced CAT1 expression, and also promoted H(2)O(2) production. These results conclusively indicate that stress-induced CAT1 expression is mediated by AtMEK1 and, furthermore, that the triggering of H(2)O(2) production might be involved in this process, as further proved by the observation that CAT1 expression was induced by applied H(2)O(2.) Surprisingly, the signalling mechanisms for stress-induced gene expression of CAT2 and CAT3 were very different from that of CAT1. Except for drought stress, expression of CAT2 or CAT3 was also activated by salt stress or ABA treatment, and AtMEK1 was not proved to be involved in the drought-induced expression of CAT2 or CAT3. Further studies showed that stomatal movement was much less sensitive to ABA in AtMEK1 mutant (mek1), and over-expression of AtMEK1 in Arabidopsis increased plant resistance to drought or salt stress, which further demonstrated that AtMEK1 is a crucial mediator in plant stress signal transduction. 相似文献

Salvia macilenta is a member of the genus Salvia (Laminaceae) whose antioxidant activity and neuroprotective effect has been shown previously. The present study aimed to examine the antiglycating and antiapoptotic abilities of methanolic extract of this plant. Moreover, the effect of S. macilenta on neurite outgrowth and complexity after exposure to H2O2 has been studied. Base on our results, S. macilenta has antiglycating activity and protects PC12 cells against oxidative stress-induced apoptotic cell death, as examined by Hoechst staining and Western blot analysis of caspase-3, Bax, Bcl-2 and PARP. We further showed that S. macilenta decreased neurite growth and complexity impairment in differentiated PC12 cells exposed to oxidative stress. It caused a decrease in cell body area, neurite width, and the proportion of bipolar cells, while significantly increasing neurite length, the number of primary neurites per cell and the ratio of nodes to primary neuritis. All around, the mentioned results open a new horizon for future works to use this plant as a potential neuroprotective agent. 相似文献

Several clinical studies have shown that cyclosporin A (CsA) is effective for treating a variety of chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Because reactive oxygen species are believed to play a key role in the development of these diseases, causing cell apoptosis, we investigated whether CsA inhibits H2O2-induced apoptosis. Preincubation of human fibroblasts with CsA dose-dependently decreased H2O2-induced apoptosis. Apoptosis suppression by CsA was correlated with the prevention of mitochondrial dysfunction and caspase activation. Thus, our results suggest that the inhibition of apoptosis by CsA may at least partly contribute to the anti-inflammatory effect of CsA. 相似文献

Liposome-mediated augmentation of catalase in alveolar type II cells protects against H2O2 injury 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Oxidant injury to the alveolar epithelium can be mediated by exposure to oxidant gases such as O2 at high concentrations and O3, inflammatory cell-derived reactive O2 species, and the intracellular metabolism of xenobiotics such as paraquat. An in vitro model of alveolar epithelial oxidant injury was developed based on exposure of cultured rat type II pneumocytes to superoxide and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) enzymatically generated in the culture medium. Cytotoxicity was assessed by the release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) into the culture medium, which was a more reliable indicator of damage than release of 51Cr by prelabeled cells. Incubation of cells for 6-8 h with xanthine plus xanthine oxidase and glucose plus glucose oxidase induced the release of greater than 50% of total intracellular LDH. Oxidant exposure also resulted in significant detachment of cells from culture dishes. Modulation of oxidant damage was accomplished using liposomes as vectors for the delivery of catalase. Treatment of cells with catalase liposomes for 2 h resulted in augmentation of cellular catalase specific activities up to 631% of controls. Catalase was partitioned into intracellular and surface-associated compartments in catalase liposome-treated cells. Partial and complete protection against oxidant injury, induced by xanthine plus xanthine oxidase and glucose plus glucose oxidase, respectively, was achieved by pretreatment of cells with catalase liposomes. LDH release during oxidant exposure was inversely related to augmentation of cellular catalase activities. Catalase liposome-treated cells also exhibited an enhanced ability to scavenge enzymatically generated H2O2 from the culture medium. These observations suggest a useful approach to modulation of alveolar injury induced by reactive O2 species. 相似文献

The resistance of secreted cysteine cathepsins to peroxide inactivation was evaluated using as model THP-1 cells. Differentiated cells released mostly cathepsin B, but also cathepsins H, K, and L, with a maximum of endopeptidase activity at day 6. Addition of non-cytotoxic concentrations of H(2)O(2) did not affect mRNA expression levels and activity of cathepsins, while the catalase activity remained also unchanged, consistently with RT-PCR analysis. Conversely inhibition of extracellular catalase led to a striking inactivation of secreted cysteine cathepsins by H(2)O(2). This report suggests that catalase may participate in the protection of extracellular cysteine proteases against peroxidation. 相似文献

We investigated the cytoprotective effect of NO on H2O2-induced cell death in mouse macrophage-like cell line RAW264. H2O2-treated cells showed apoptotic features, such as activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3, nuclear fragmentation, and DNA fragmentation. These apoptotic features were significantly inhibited by pretreatment for 24 h with NO donors, sodium nitroprusside and 1-hydroxy-2-oxo-3,3-bis-(2-aminoethyl)-1-triazene, at a low nontoxic concentration. The cytoprotective effect of NO was abrogated by the catalase inhibitor 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole but was not affected by a glutathione synthesis inhibitor, L-buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine. NO donors increased the level of catalase and its activity in a concentration-dependent manner. Cycloheximide, a protein synthesis inhibitor, inhibited both the NO-induced increase in the catalase level and the cytoprotective effect of NO. These results indicate that NO at a low concentration protects macrophages from H2O2-induced apoptosis by inducing the production of catalase. 相似文献

Mutations in the ceramide kinase-like gene (CERKL) are associated with severe retinal degeneration. However, the exact function of the encoded protein (CERKL) remains unknown. Here we show that CERKL interacts with mitochondrial thioredoxin 2 (TRX2) and maintains TRX2 in the reduced redox state. Overexpression of CERKL protects cells from apoptosis under oxidative stress, whereas suppressing CERKL renders cells more sensitive to oxidative stress. In zebrafish, CERKL protein prominently locates in the outer segment and inner segment of the photoreceptor of the retina. Knockdown of CERKL in the zebrafish leads to an increase of retinal cell death, including cone and rod photoreceptor degeneration. Signs of oxidative damage to macromolecules were also detected in CERKL deficient zebrafish retina. Our results show that CERKL interacts with TRX2 and plays a novel key role in the regulation of the TRX2 antioxidant pathway and, for the first time, provides an explanation of how mutations in CERKL may lead to retinal cell death. 相似文献

Hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) can interact with intracellular signaling pathways to regulate cell behavior. The c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase 1 (JNK1) signal, involved in diverse aspects of cellular functioning, is implicated as a cell sensor of redox stress. The growth-inhibitory effect of both high-level H(2)O(2) and H(2)O(2)-scavenging catalase treatments is accompanied by increased JNK1 activity. To investigate the role of this response in growth regulation, the JNK1 signal was increased by the introduction of ectopic HA-JNK1. HA-JNK1 expression correlated with increases in basal c-Jun phosphorylation in a dose-dependent manner. Transient expression of HA-JNK1 potentiated cell growth arrest by catalase; however, with stable expression a degree of resistance to this response was observed. Resistance was accompanied by a lowered endogenous production of H(2)O(2). Transient HA-JNK1 expression also reduced H(2)O(2) generation, and this effect was reversed by the JNK inhibitor SP600125. These results indicate that the JNK1 stress response contributes to growth inhibition by catalase treatment via inhibition of cellular H(2)O(2) production. Stable amplification of the JNK1 pathway leads to cellular adaptation to its signal, resulting in a diminished reliance upon H(2)O(2) for efficient growth. 相似文献

Cells subjected to sub-lethal doses of stress such as irradiation or oxidative damage enter a state that closely resembles replicative senescence. What triggers stress-induced premature senescence (SIPS) and how similar this mechanism is to replicative senescence are not well understood. It has been suggested that stress-induced senescence is caused by rapid telomere shortening resulting from DNA damage. In order to test this hypothesis directly, we examined whether overexpression of the catalytic subunit of human telomerase (hTERT) can protect cells from SIPS. We therefore analyzed the response of four different lines of normal human fibroblasts with and without hTERT to stress induced by UV, gamma-irradiation, and H(2)O(2). SIPS was induced with the same efficiency in normal and hTERT-immortalized cells. This suggests that SIPS is not triggered by telomere shortening and that nonspecific DNA damage serves as a signal for induction of SIPS. Although telomerase did not protect cells from SIPS, fibroblasts expressing hTERT were more resistant to stress-induced apoptosis and necrosis. We hypothesize that healing of DNA breaks by telomerase inhibits the induction of cell death, but because healing does not provide legitimate DNA repair, it does not protect cells from SIPS. 相似文献

Conditions necessary for the activation by ascorbic acid of soluble guanylate cyclase purified from bovine lung have been examined. Ascorbic acid (0.1-10 mM) did not directly activate the enzyme, nonetheless, pronounced activation by ascorbate (3-10 mM) was observed in incubation mixtures containing 1 microM bovine liver catalase. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) and mannitol did not affect the catalase-dependent activation of guanylate cyclase elicited by ascorbate, suggesting that superoxide anion and hydroxyl radical were not mediating the activation of the enzyme. However, SOD enhanced the relatively low level activation of the enzyme elicited by catalase in the absence of added ascorbate. Pronounced inhibition (both with and without added ascorbate) was observed of catalase-dependent activation of guanylate cyclase by either ethanol (100 mM) or a fungal catalase preparation. Neither ethanol nor fungal catalase inhibited activation of guanylate cyclase by S-nitrosyl-N-acetyl-penicillamine (SNAP), a source of the nitric oxide free radical. These observations indicate that autoxidation of ascorbic acid or thiols present with the guanylate cyclase preparation leads to generation of H2O2, and its metabolism by bovine liver catalase mediates the concomitant activation of guanylate cyclase. The mechanism of activation appears to be associated with the presence of Compound I of catalase and to be inhibited by superoxide anion. 相似文献

Overexpression of MsrA protects WI-38 SV40 human fibroblasts against H2O2-mediated oxidative stress 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Proteins are modified by reactive oxygen species, and oxidation of specific amino acid residues can impair their biological functions, leading to an alteration in cellular homeostasis. Oxidized proteins can be eliminated through either degradation or repair. Repair is limited to the reversion of a few modifications such as the reduction of methionine oxidation by the methionine sulfoxide reductase (Msr) system. However, accumulation of oxidized proteins occurs during aging, replicative senescence, or neurological disorders or after an oxidative stress, while Msr activity is impaired. In order to more precisely analyze the relationship between oxidative stress, protein oxidative damage, and MsrA, we stably overexpressed MsrA full-length cDNA in SV40 T antigen-immortalized WI-38 human fibroblasts. We report here that MsrA-overexpressing cells are more resistant than control cells to hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress, but not to ultraviolet A irradiation. This MsrA-mediated resistance is accompanied by a decrease in intracellular reactive oxygen species and is partially abolished when cells are cultivated at suboptimal concentration of methionine. These results indicate that MsrA may play an important role in cellular defenses against oxidative stress, by catalytic removal of oxidant through the reduction of methionine sulfoxide, and in protection against death by limiting, at least in part, the accumulation of oxidative damage to proteins. 相似文献

We recently showed that photooxidative stress on cultured photoreceptor cells results in down-modulation of NF-kappaB activity which then leads to apoptosis of cultured 661W photoreceptor cells. In an effort to further delineate the mechanism of photoreceptor cell death, we sought to determine the effects of Bcl-2 overexpression on cell survivability. Wild-type 661W cells were transfected with the plasmid construct pSFFV-neo-Bcl-2 and several clones were isolated. All clones demonstrated increased Bcl-2 mRNA and protein levels, with the B4 clone exhibiting the greatest enhancement. On exposure to visible light the B4 cells were protected from undergoing apoptosis when compared with the mock transfected cells, as ascertained by TUNEL apoptosis assay and formazan based estimation of cell viability. The Bcl-2 overexpressing cells also maintained a higher Bcl-2/Bax ratio, suggesting that this ratio is important in protection from photooxidative stress. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays for NF-kappaB demonstrated higher activity in both nuclear and cytosolic fractions of the B4 photoreceptors compared with the 661W wild-type cells at all light exposure time points. Furthermore, the findings of the gel shift assays were further supported by immunocytochemistry for NF-kappaB which revealed that protein levels of the RelA subunit of NF-kappaB were protected in the nucleus as well as in the cytoplasm of Bcl-2 overexpressing B4 cells exposed to light compared to the 661W cells. These results suggest that Bcl-2 overexpression protects NF-kappaB protein levels and activity in the nucleus, indicating that preservation of NF-kappaB binding activity in the nucleus may be essential for photoreceptor cells to survive photooxidative damage induced apoptosis. 相似文献

Prevention of H2O2 generation by monoamine oxidase protects against CNS O2 toxicity. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Toxicity to the central nervous system (CNS) by hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) presumably relates to increased production of reactive oxygen species. The sites of generation of reactive oxygen species during HBO, however, have not been fully characterized in the brain. We investigated the relationship between regional generation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the brain in the presence of an irreversible inhibitor of catalase, aminotriazole (ATZ), and protection from CNS O2 toxicity by a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor, pargyline. At 6 ATA of oxygen, pargyline significantly protected rats from CNS O2 toxicity whereas ATZ enhanced O2 toxicity. In animals pretreated with ATZ, HBO inactivated 21-40% more catalase than air exposure in the six brain regions studied. Because ATZ-mediated inactivation of catalase was H2O2 dependent, the decrease in catalase activity during hyperoxia was proportional to the intracellular production of H2O2. Pargyline, administered 30 min before HBO, inhibited MAO by greater than 90%, prevented ATZ inhibition of catalase activity during HBO, and reversed the augmentation of CNS O2 toxicity by ATZ. These findings indicate that H2O2 generated by MAO during hyperoxia is important to the pathogenesis of CNS O2 toxicity in rats. 相似文献
