Isoprostanes are widely recognized as useful markers of membrane lipid peroxidation. It seems to be less well appreciated, however, that they also elicit important biological responses, even though this was first shown at the same time that they were introduced as markers of oxidative stress. The past several years have seen the list of cells/tissues which are sensitive to isoprostanes grow considerably: in fact, as we summarize here, there is now evidence that essentially every cell type in the lung responds in some pathologically relevant way to isoprostanes. In this sense, they might well be considered as not just markers of oxidative stress and inflammation, but also as a novel group of inflammatory mediators. Moreover, in addition to their pathological effects, we summarize here the evidence which has led us to hypothesize that isoprostanes could play an important role in vascular smooth muscle physiology as "endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factors." 相似文献

Isoprostanes are prostaglandin-like bioactive molecules generated via nonenzymatic peroxidation of lipid membrane-derived arachidonic acid by free radicals and reactive oxygen species. Their cognate receptors, biological actions, and signaling pathways are poorly understood. Aside from being sensitive and specific biomarkers of oxidative stress, E- and F-ring isoprostanes have important biological functions and likely mediate many of the disease-related pathological changes for which they are used as indicators. The biochemical pathways involved in isoprostane formation, their pathogenetic relevance to adult disease states, and their biological function are addressed. Developmentally, plasma and tissue content data show that isoprostane levels are highest during fetal and early neonatal life, when compared with adults. As such, the available data suggesting that isoprostanes play an important biological role, as well as possibly actively participate in the regulation of pulmonary vascular tone and the transition from fetal to postnatal life, are here reviewed. Lastly, the association between isoprostanes and certain neonatal clinical conditions is addressed. Although its existence has been recognized for almost 20 years, little is known about the critical importance of isoprostanes during fetal life and immediate neonatal period. This review is an attempt to bridge this knowledge gap. 相似文献

Isoprostanes are prostaglandin (PG)-like compounds generated in vivo following oxidative stress by non-enzymatic peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids, including arachidonic acid. They are named based on their prostane ring structure and by the localization of hydroxyl groups on the carbon side chain; these structural differences result in a broad array of isoprostane molecules with varying biological properties. Generation of specific isoprostanes is also regulated by host cell redox conditions; reducing conditions favor F2-isoprostane production while under conditions with deficient antioxidant capacity, D2- and E2-isoprostanes are formed. F2-isoprostanes (F2-isoP) are considered reliable markers of oxidative stress in pulmonary diseases including asthma. Importantly, F2-isoP and other isoprostanes function as ligands for PG receptors, and potentially other receptors that have not yet been identified. They have been reported to have important biological properties in many organs. In the lung, isoprostanes regulate cellular processes affecting airway smooth muscle tone, neural secretion, epithelial ion flux, endothelial cell adhesion and permeability, and macrophage adhesion and function. In this review, we will summarize the evidence that F2-isoP functions as a marker of oxidative stress in asthma, and that F2-isoP and other isoprostanes exert biological effects that contribute to the pathogenesis of asthma. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Biochemistry of Asthma. 相似文献

Plasma and urinary levels of malondialdehyde-like products (MDA) and isoprostanes were identified as markers of in vivo lipid peroxidation in an animal model of CCl4 poisoning. We sought to determine the extent to which the formation of these oxidation products is influenced by inhibition of the cyclooxygenase enzymes which catalytically generate proinflammatory lipid peroxidation products known as prostaglandins and thromboxane. In the present studies, after induction of oxidant stress in rats with CCl4, lipid peroxidation products measured in plasma and urine demonstrate that isoprostanes and MDA can be partially inhibited by cyclooxygenase inhibitors, albeit to different extents. The lowering of isoprostane and MDA formation, however, may not to due primarily to the diminution of catalytic generation of isoprostanes or MDA by the cyclooxygenases but, rather, may be the result of the suppression of nonenzymatic lipid peroxidation. This is suggested since 8,12-iso-iPF2alpha-VI is also reduced by indomethacin, yet, unlike other isoprostanes and MDA, it is not generated catalytically by the cyclooxygenase. Thus, although the two cyclooxygenase inhibitors we tested have statistically significant effects on the measurements of both isoprostanes and MDA in this study, the results provide evidence that these lipid-degradation products primarily constitute markers of oxidative stress. 相似文献

Oxidative stress leads to lipid peroxidation and may contribute to the pathogenesis of lesions in multiple sclerosis (MS),
an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammatory as well as degenerative phenomena. Isoprostanes are prostaglandin-like
compounds which are formed by free radical catalysed peroxidation of arachidonic acid esterified in membrane phospholipids.
They are a new class of sensitive specific markers for in vivo lipid peroxidation. In this study 26 patients (15 females and
11 males; mean age 48.2 ± 15.2 year; mean disease duration 10.0 ± 6.5 year) with secondary progressive MS (SPMS) and 12 healthy
controls were enrolled. In patients with multiple sclerosis the lipid peroxidation as the level of urine isoprostanes and
the level of thiobarbituric acid reactive species (TBARS) in plasma were estimated. Moreover, we estimated the total antioxidative
status (TAS) in plasma. It was found that the urine isoprostanes level was over 6-fold elevated in patients with SPMS than
in control (P < 0.001). In SPMS patients TBARS level was also statistically higher than in controls (P < 0.01). However, we did not observed any difference of TAS level in serum between SPMS patients and controls (P > 0.05). In patients with SPMS the lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress measured as the increased level of isoprostanes
was observed. Thus, we suggest that the level of isoprostanes may be used as non-invasive marker for a determination of oxidative
stress what in turn, together with clinical symptoms, may determine an specific antioxidative therapy in SPMS patients. 相似文献

Regulatory lipids from the airway surface readily form aerosols that can be recovered non-invasively by cooling expired breath to form breath condensate (BC). Regulatory lipids have been detected previously utilizing enzyme-linked-immunosorbent serologic assay (ELISA). Here we test the feasibility of assessment of regulatory lipids in BC by mass spectrometry so presently unknown lipid regulatory components can be detected without addition of specific antibodies as in the ELISA procedure. Baseline regulatory lipids were detected in >pg/mL BC in control animals or human lung tissue culture cells. In nearly every case animals exposed to toxins or infectious bacteria showed increases in the BC regulatory components. Lipids were recovered from BC by solid phase extraction. Phosphatidylcholine (PC) based lipids were detected as the progenitor (parent) ions of isomers that fragmented in producing product positive ions at m/z 184 (of phosphocholine) in tandem MS using capillary HPLC and electrospray ionization. BC eicosanoids such as prostaglandins, thromboxane, and isoprostanes require capillary gas chromatography for separation and detection that necessitates methoximation, pentafluorobenzyl (PFB) ester formation, and trimethyl silylation of hydroxyls prior to gas chromatography/ion trap tandem mass spectrometry of negative ions after chemical ionization (NICI). Tetradeuterated internal standards were utilized for quantitation with the GC/NICI/MS. Changes in concentrations of lipids and eicosanoids were observed in piglets, and rats exposed to aerosolized 100 mug/kg lipopolysaccharide (LPS), or 50 mug/kg and 150 mug/kg aerosolized Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) in BC as well as in human THP-1 cell culture cell supernatants and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) samples in rats. Responses of the molecular species of phosphatidylcholines (PCs), platelet activating factors (PAFs) and specific eicosanoids correlated to the toxin and bacterial infections suggesting that patterns of differential responses could be detected with further experimentation. Initial targets included prostaglandins (PGE(2), PGF(2alpha)), thromboxane (TXB2), and prostacyclin (as 6-Keto PGF(1alpha)) that show differential responses to inflammation, the leukotriene (LTB4) and PGD2 for allergic responses, isoprostanes (8-iso-PGF(2alpha)) for free radical oxidative stress responses, and HETEs for differential lipoxygenase activities. PAFs and lysoPAFs have been shown to increase with inflammation and in the feasibility experiments reported here. Preliminary studies show pulmonary responses of piglets to intrathecal exposure of toxicants (LPS and SEB) or infections with Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae induce increased levels of lipids and two eicosanoids with the suggestion that differential patterns might be detected with expanded testing. Preliminary experience indicates numerous other eicosanoids were available for assay in BC. This suggests an important potential application of BC to observe a wide array of factors to establish comprehensive profiles for physiological and pathophysiological states. Ultimately this technique could be used as a non-invasive possibly presymptomatic assessment of pulmonary pathobiology. 相似文献

We examined the responses to various isoprostane derivatives in bovine/human airway and pulmonary arteries. All biological activity of 15-F(2t)-IsoP was lost in its two major metabolites (15-keto-15-F(2t)-IsoP and 13,14-dihydro-15-keto-15-F(2t)-IsoP). We also examined the effects of several metabolites of 15-F(2t)-IsoP synthesized within our own laboratory-both epimers of 2,3-dinor-15-F(2t)-IsoP and of 2,3-dinor-5,6-dihydro-15-F(2t)-IsoP, as well as 20-carboxy-2,3,4,5-tetranor-15 oxo-5,6,13,14-tetrahydro-15-F(2t)-isoP)-finding none of these to have any substantial excitatory effect. Finally, several plant-derived isoprostanes ("phytoprostanes") synthesized within our laboratory elicited little or no excitatory response in these three pulmonary smooth muscle preparations. We conclude that, although isoprostane exhibit powerful constrictor effects on airway and pulmonary vascular smooth muscles, metabolic processing of those isoprostanes essentially abolishes those biological actions; also, the phytoprostanes lack any appreciable pharmacological activity on those smooth muscle preparations. 相似文献

Isoprostanes F(2) are arachidonate autoxidation products in mammals that have been shown to be induced during several human disorders associated with enhanced free-radical generation. Isoprostanes F(2) represent not only extremely reliable markers of oxidative stress in vivo, but they also exert potent biological effects. Therefore, it has been postulated that isoprostanoids are mediators of oxidant injury in vivo. Higher plants, however, do not synthesize arachidonic acid or isoprostanes. Here we show that a series of isoprostane F(2) analogs termed phytoprostanes F(1) (previously dinor isoprostanes F(1)) are formed by an analogous pathway from alpha-linolenate in plants. High-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry methods using [(18)O](3)phytoprostanes F(1) as internal standard have been developed to quantify phytoprostanes F(1). In fresh peppermint (Mentha piperita) leaves, phytoprostanes F(1) were found in free form (76 ng/g of dry weight) and at about 150-fold higher levels esterified in lipids. It is notable that these levels of phytoprostanes F(1) are more than two orders of magnitude higher than the basal levels of isoprostanes F(2) in mammalian tissues. Furthermore, wounding, as well as butyl hydroperoxide or cupric acetate stress triggered a dramatic increase of free and esterified phytoprostanes F(1). Thus phytoprostanes F(1) may represent a sensitive measure of oxidative damage in plants similar to isoprostanes in mammals. However, one of the most exciting issues to be clarified is the possibility that linolenate-derived phytoprostanes F(1) exert biological activities in plants and/or animals. 相似文献

Isoprostanes are members of a family of prostaglandin isomers that are produced by free radical-catalysed mechanisms. They have become well-recognized indicators of oxidant-induced cell damage in a variety of pathophysiological conditions. Several isoprostanes have been shown to possess biological activity in whole-animal, isolated tissue and cell-based systems. Their actions include vasoconstriction, platelet aggregation and cardiac hypertrophy. Current evidence suggests that these effects are mediated by prostanoid receptors through a complex set of interactions that involve agonism, partial agonism, desensitization and co-operative behaviors. It is likely that other mechanisms of action are waiting to be discovered. Based on a consideration of these biological effects, we argue that isoprostanes are more than mere markers and may serve as active participants in promoting and exaggerating pathophysiological changes. To tease out their roles requires considerable more work and a willingness to suspend disbelief based on limited evidence. 相似文献

We investigated a transgenic mouse model of sickle cell disease, homozygous for deletion of mouse beta-globin and containing transgenes for human beta(S) and beta(S-antilles) globins linked to the transgene for human alpha-globin. In these mice, basal cGMP production in aortic rings is increased, whereas relaxation to an endothelium-dependent vasodilator, A-23187, is impaired. In contrast, aortic expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS) is unaltered in sickle mice, whereas expression of inducible NOS is not detected in either group; plasma nitrate/nitrite concentrations and NOS activity are similar in both groups. Increased cGMP may reflect the stimulatory effect of peroxides (an activator of guanylate cyclase), because lipid peroxidation is increased in aortae and in plasma in sickle mice. Despite increased vascular cGMP levels in sickle mice, conscious systolic blood pressure is comparable to that of aged-matched controls; sickle mice, however, evince a greater rise in systolic blood pressure in response to nitro-L-arginine methyl ester, an inhibitor of NOS. Systemic concentrations of the vasoconstrictive oxidative product 8-isoprostane are increased in sickle mice. We conclude that vascular responses are altered in this transgenic sickle mouse and are accompanied by increased lipid peroxidation and production of cGMP; we suggest that oxidant-inducible vasoconstrictor systems such as isoprostanes may oppose nitric oxide-dependent and nitric oxide-independent mechanisms of vasodilatation in this transgenic sickle mouse. Destabilization of the vasoactive balance in the sickle vasculature by clinically relevant states may predispose to vasoocclusive disease. 相似文献

Uncoupling salicylic acid-dependent cell death and defense-related responses from disease resistance in the Arabidopsis mutant acd5 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Salicylic acid (SA) is required for resistance to many diseases in higher plants. SA-dependent cell death and defense-related responses have been correlated with disease resistance. The accelerated cell death 5 mutant of Arabidopsis provides additional genetic evidence that SA regulates cell death and defense-related responses. However, in acd5, these events are uncoupled from disease resistance. acd5 plants are more susceptible to Pseudomonas syringae early in development and show spontaneous SA accumulation, cell death, and defense-related markers later in development. In acd5 plants, cell death and defense-related responses are SA dependent but they do not confer disease resistance. Double mutants with acd5 and nonexpressor of PR1, in which SA signaling is partially blocked, show greatly attenuated cell death, indicating a role for NPR1 in controlling cell death. The hormone ethylene potentiates the effects of SA and is important for disease symptom development in Arabidopsis. Double mutants of acd5 and ethylene insensitive 2, in which ethylene signaling is blocked, show decreased cell death, supporting a role for ethylene in cell death control. We propose that acd5 plants mimic P. syringae-infected wild-type plants and that both SA and ethylene are normally involved in regulating cell death during some susceptible pathogen infections. 相似文献

Heterodimerization of the alpha and beta isoforms of the human thromboxane receptor enhances isoprostane signaling 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Isoprostanes are free radical catalyzed products of arachidonic acid that are elevated in pro-oxidant disease states. Two isoprostanes, 8-isoprostaglandin F(2alpha) (iPF(2alpha)III) and 8-isoprostaglandin E2 (iPE2III), act at the receptor for thromboxane A2 (the TP) to mediate pro-atherogenic effects in vivo. We confirmed dimerization of the human TP isoforms, TPalpha and TPbeta, and determined the impact on isoprostane signaling. No overt changes in ligand binding at the TP were observed as a result of TPalpha/TPbeta coexpression. The response to iPF(2alpha)III or iPE2III was enhanced in HEK293 cells stably coexpressing TPalpha and TPbeta, as measured by inositol phosphate generation or intracellular calcium mobilization, relative to cells expressing TPalpha or TPbeta individually. In contrast, the response to traditional thromboxane analogs was unaltered. Augmented isoprostane signaling was similarly observed in HEK 293 cell transiently transfected with TPalpha and TPbeta. These results indicate that TPalpha/TPbeta dimerization enhances isoprostane-mediated signal transduction. 相似文献

Isoprostanes are marker of lipid peroxidation and are produced after free-radical attack of membrane lipids. In addition, they are biologically active and are essentially vaso- and broncho-constrictor. Their smooth muscle constrictor actions are closely linked to the activation of the thromboxane A(2) receptor, but also involve a distinct receptor not yet identified. The response of vascular smooth muscle to isoprostanes is subclass-specific (F-series versus E-series isoprostanes) and cell- and species-related. In this review, we will address the vascular actions of isoprostanes and their possible role in vascular physiology and pathophysiology. 相似文献

Background
Helminth infections are known to modulate innate and adaptive immune responses in active and latent tuberculosis (TB). However, the role of helminth infections in modulating responses associated with inflammation and immune activation (reflecting disease activity and/or severity) in TB is not known.Methodology
We measured markers of inflammation and immune activation in active pulmonary TB individuals (ATB) with co-incidental Strongyloides stercoralis (Ss) infection. These included systemic levels of acute phase proteins, matrix metalloproteinases and their endogenous inhibitors and immune activation markers. As a control, we measured the systemic levels of the same molecules in TB-uninfected individuals (NTB) with or without Ss infection.Principal Findings
Our data confirm that ATB is associated with elevated levels of the various measured molecules when compared to those seen in NTB. Our data also reveal that co-incident Ss infection in ATB individuals is associated with significantly decreased circulating levels of acute phase proteins, matrix metalloproteinases, tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases as well as the systemic immune activation markers, sCD14 and sCD163. These changes are specific to ATB since they are absent in NTB individuals with Ss infection.Conclusions
Our data therefore reveal a profound effect of Ss infection on the markers associated with TB disease activity and severity and indicate that co-incidental helminth infections might dampen the severity of TB disease. 相似文献16.

Mycoplasma infection is a leading cause of pneumonia worldwide and can lead to other respiratory complications. A component of mycoplasma respiratory diseases is immunopathologic, suggesting that lymphocyte activation is a key event in the progression of these chronic inflammatory diseases. The present study delineates the changes in T cell populations and their activation after mycoplasma infection and determines their association with the pathogenesis of murine Mycoplasma respiratory disease, due to Mycoplasma pulmonis infection. Increases in T cell population numbers in lungs and lower respiratory lymph nodes were associated with the development of mycoplasma respiratory disease. Although both pulmonary Th and CD8(+) T cells increased after mycoplasma infection, there was a preferential expansion of Th cells. Mycoplasma-specific Th2 responses were dominant in lower respiratory lymph nodes, while Th1 responses predominated in spleen. However, both mycoplasma-specific Th1 and Th2 cytokine (IL-4 and IFN-gamma) responses were present in the lungs, with Th1 cell activation as a major component of the pulmonary Th cell response. Although a smaller component of the T cell response, mycoplasma-specific CD8(+) T cells were also a significant component of pulmonary lymphoid responses. In vivo depletion of CD8(+) T cells resulted in dramatically more severe pulmonary disease, while depletion of CD4(+) T cells reduced its severity, but there was no change in mycoplasma numbers in lungs after cell depletion. Thus, mycoplasma-specific Th1 and CD8(+) T cell activation in the lung plays a critical regulatory role in development of immunopathologic reactions in Mycoplasma respiratory disease. 相似文献

Cell death by necrosis, a regulated way to go 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Apoptosis is a programmed form of cell death with well-defined morphological traits that are often associated with activation of caspases. More recently evidence has become available demonstrating that upon caspase inhibition alternative programs of cell death are executed, including ones with features characteristic of necrosis. These findings have changed our view of necrosis as a passive and essentially accidental form of cell death to that of an active, regulated and controllable process. Also necrosis has now been observed in parallel with, rather than as an alternative pathway to, apoptosis. Thus, cell death responses are extremely flexible despite being programmed. In this review, some of the hallmarks of different programmed cell death modes have been highlighted before focusing the discussion on necrosis. Obligatory events associated with this form of cell death include uncompensated cell swelling and related changes at the plasma membrane. In this context, representatives of the transient receptor channel family and their regulation are discussed. Also mechanisms that lead to execution of the necrotic cell death program are highlighted. Emphasis is laid on summarizing our understanding of events that permit switching between cell death modes and how they connect to necrosis. Finally, potential implications for the treatment of some disease states are mentioned. 相似文献

Respiratory infections are the third leading cause of death worldwide. Complications arise directly as a consequence of pathogen replication or indirectly due to aberrant or excessive immune responses. In the following report, we evaluate the efficacy, in a murine model, of nasally delivered DNA encoding TGF-beta1 to suppress immunopathology in response to a variety of infectious agents. A single nasal administration suppressed lymphocyte responses to Cryptococcus neoformans, influenza virus and respiratory syncytial virus. The suppression did not depend on the phenotype of the responding T cell, since both Th1 and Th2 responses were affected. During Th2-inducing infection, pulmonary eosinophilic responses were significantly suppressed. In all cases, however, suppressed immunity correlated with increased susceptibility to infection. We conclude that nasal TGF-beta treatment could be used to prevent pulmonary, pathogen-driven eosinophilic disease, although anti-pathogen strategies will need to be administered concordantly. 相似文献

Pulmonary neuroendocrine cells are scant and widespread within the pulmonary epithelium. The function they play is not fully known, more studies are needed to clearly define it. They have been implicated however, as either the culprit or victim of many pulmonary diseases. That is the reason, why so many scientists take interest in the pulmonary neuroendocrine system. This paper reviews current information regarding pulmonary neuroendocrine cells, their origin, morphology, ontogeny, role, neuroendocrine cell markers, dysplasia and hyperplasia of pulmonary neuroendocrine cells in various conditions, diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia, typical carcinoid, atypical carcinoid, small-cell lung carcinoma, large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma and the unusual spectrum of pulmonary neuroendocrine tumours. 相似文献

Oxidation products of lipids, proteins, and DNA in the blood, plasma, and urine of rats were measured as part of a comprehensive, multilaboratory validation study searching for noninvasive biomarkers of oxidative stress. This article is the second report of the nationwide Biomarkers of Oxidative Stress Study using acute CCl4 poisoning as a rodent model for oxidative stress. The time-dependent (2, 7, and 16 h) and dose-dependent (120 and 1200 mg/kg i.p.) effects of CCl4 on concentrations of lipid hydroperoxides, TBARS, malondialdehyde (MDA), isoprostanes, protein carbonyls, methionine sulfoxidation, tyrosine products, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), leukocyte DNA-MDA adducts, and DNA-strand breaks were investigated to determine whether the oxidative effects of CCl4 would result in increased generation of these oxidation products. Plasma concentrations of MDA and isoprostanes (both measured by GC-MS) and urinary concentrations of isoprostanes (measured with an immunoassay or LC/MS/MS) were increased in both low-dose and high-dose CCl4-treated rats at more than one time point. The other urinary markers (MDA and 8-OHdG) showed significant elevations with treatment under three of the four conditions tested. It is concluded that measurements of MDA and isoprostanes in plasma and urine as well as 8-OHdG in urine are potential candidates for general biomarkers of oxidative stress. All other products were not changed by CCl4 or showed fewer significant effects. 相似文献
