Glutathione (GSH) depletion has been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurological diseases. During GSH depletion, cells of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) are subjected to chronic oxidative stress. In this study, we investigated the effect of such stress, produced with the GSH synthesis inhibitor l-buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO), on expression of P-glycoprotein (Pgp) in primary cultured rat brain microvessel endothelial cells that comprise the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Application of BSO to cell monolayers at concentrations up to 800 microm caused increases in expression of Pgp. Concentrations >or= 400 microm BSO decreased cell viability. Application of 200 microm BSO caused a significant increase in Pgp function activity, as assessed by rhodamine 123 (Rh123) accumulation experiments. At this concentration, BSO produced time-dependent decreases in levels of intracellular GSH and increases in levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (iROS). The increases were also observed within 48 h following BSO treatment in mdr1a and mdr1b mRNA. Exposure of cells to BSO for 24 h produced maximal effects in the accumulation of iROS, and in expression and function of Pgp. The ROS scavenger N-acetylcysteine prevented ROS generation and attenuated the changes of both expression and activity of Pgp induced by BSO. Therefore, the transport of Pgp substrates may be affected by changing Pgp expression under conditions of chronic oxidative stress induced by GSH depletion. 相似文献

Expression of a multidrug resistance gene (mdr1) and its protein product, P-glycoprotein (Pgp), has been correlated with the onset of multidrug resistance in vitro in human cell lines selected for resistance to chemotherapeutic agents derived from natural products. Expression of this gene has also been observed in normal tissues and human tumors, including neuroblastoma. We therefore examined total RNA prepared from human neuroblastoma cell lines before and after differentiation with retinoic acid or sodium butyrate. An increase in the level of mdr1 mRNA was observed after retinoic acid treatment of four neuroblastoma cell lines, including the SK-N-SH cell line. Western blot (immunoblot) analysis demonstrated concomitant increases in Pgp. However, studies of 3H-vinblastine uptake failed to show a concomitant Pgp-mediated decrease in cytotoxic drug accumulation. To provide evidence that Pgp was localized on the cell surface, an immunotoxin conjugate directed against Pgp was added to cells before and after treatment with retinoic acid. Incorporation of [3H]leucine was decreased by the immunotoxin in the retinoic acid-treated cells compared with the undifferentiated cells. These results demonstrate that whereas expression of the mdr1 gene can be modulated by differentiating agents, increased levels of expression are not necessarily associated with increased cytotoxic drug accumulation. 相似文献

P-glycoprotein (Pgp), an efflux pump, was confirmed the first time to regulate the expressions of miR/gene in cells. Pgp is
known to be associated with multidrug resistance. RHepG2 cells, the multidrug resistant subline of human hepatocellular carcinoma
HepG2 cells, expressed higher levels of Pgp as well as miR-16, and lower level of Bcl-2 than the parental cells. In addition,
RHepG2 cells were more radiation sensitive and showed more pronounced radiation-induced apoptotic cell death than the parental
cells. Mechanistic analysis revealed that transfection with mdr1 specific antisense oligos suppressed radiation-induced apoptosis in HepG2 cells. On the other hand, ectopic mdr1 expression enhanced radiation-induced apoptosis in HepG2 cells, SK-HEP-1 cells, MiHa cells, and furthermore, induced miR-16
and suppressed its target gene Bcl-2 in HepG2 cells. Moreover, the enhancement effects of Pgp and miR-16 on radiation-induced
apoptosis were counteracted by overexpression of Bcl-2. The Pgp effect on miR-16/Bcl-2 was suppressed by Pgp blocker verapamil
indicating the importance of the efflux of Pgp substrates. The present study is the first to reveal the role of Pgp in regulation
of miRNA/gene expressions. The findings may provide new perspective in understanding the biological function of Pgp. 相似文献

Hypoxia/reoxygenation stimulates Ca2+-dependent ICAM-1 mRNA expression in human aortic endothelial cells 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Increased endothelial ICAM-1 expression is found in normal aging and in atherosclerosis and is related to the chronic effects of oxidative stress. We examined the Ca(2+)-dependence of ICAM-1 mRNA expression in human aortic endothelial cells (HAEC) exposed to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) as a model of oxidative stress. HAEC were exposed to glucose-free hypoxia (95% N(2)/5% CO(2)) for 60 min and were then reoxygenated (21% O(2)/5% CO(2)) and observed for up to 6h. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation was measured by dichlorofluorescein fluorescence and ICAM-1 mRNA was assessed by Northern blot. Upon reoxygenation after hypoxia, ROS production occurred in HAEC and was inhibited by diphenyleneiodonium and by polyethylene glycol-catalase, suggesting the involvement of NADPH oxidase-derived hydrogen peroxide. Hypoxia alone did not increase either ROS production or ICAM-1 mRNA levels, but a 2.5-fold increase in ICAM-1 mRNA was noted by 30 min of reoxygenation. This was not observed in Ca(2+)-free buffer or in cells treated with diphenyleneiodonium. Thus, H/R upregulates ICAM-1 mRNA in HAEC by a Ca(2+)- and ROS-dependent mechanism. Characterizing the signaling pathways involved in H/R-induced adhesion molecule expression may result in a better understanding of the vascular biology of normal aging and the pathobiology of atherosclerosis. 相似文献

Over-expression of P-glycoprotein (Pgp), a protein responsible for multidrug resistance (MDR), is responsible for general
resistance to anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs). We explored the potential use of gene therapy with adenoviral-delivered RNA interference
against mdr1b as a method to sensitize refractory epilepsy to AEDs. We constructed replication-deficient recombinant adenovirus
Adeno-mdr1b1 carrying short hairpin RNA (shRNA) targeting against mdr1b, and successfully infected the established Sprague–Dawley
rat astrocyte model of Coriaria Lactone-induced Pgp over-expression. The expression levels of mdr1b and Pgp and the Rhodamine123
efflux ratio in trial groups were significantly lower than that of blank control (P < 0.05) during the first 7 days post-infection, with the most inhibition at 48 h. The results suggest that knockdown of MDR
using adenovirus not only avoided the toxicity and low rate of plasmid nucleofection, but also overcame its poor efficiency
of mdr1b silencing. More importantly, this study may pave the way for a promising approach to remedy refractory epilepsy. 相似文献

The best characterized mechanism of multidrug resistance (MDR) in cancer involves the MDR1 efflux transporter P-glycoprotein (Pgp). The positron-emitting radiotracer hexakis(2-methoxyisobutylisonitrile)-(94m)Tc ((94m)Tc-MIBI) was synthesized and validated in cell transport studies as a substrate for MDR1 Pgp. In vivo small-scale PET imaging and biodistribution studies of mdr1a/1b (-/-) gene deleted and wild-type mice demonstrated the use of (94m)Tc-MIBI to detect Pgp function. The reversal effect of a Pgp modulator was shown in tissue distribution studies of KB 3-1 (Pgp-) and KB 8-5 (Pgp+) tumor-bearing nude mice. The current (94m)Tc-MIBI experiments parallel previous studies employing (99m)Tc-MIBI, showing essentially identical performance of the two technetium radiotracers and providing biological validation of (94m)Tc-MIBI for PET imaging of multidrug resistance. 相似文献

Ceramide increases oxidative damage due to inhibition of catalase by caspase-3-dependent proteolysis in HL-60 cell apoptosis 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

We investigated through which mechanisms ceramide increased oxidative damage to induce leukemia HL-60 cell apoptosis. When 5 microm N-acetylsphingosine (C(2)-ceramide) or 20 microm H(2)O(2) alone induced little increase of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation as judged by the 2'-7'-dichlorofluorescin diacetate method, 20 microm H(2)O(2) enhanced oxidative damage as judged by ROS accumulation, and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance production after pretreatment with 5 microm C(2)-ceramide at least for 12 h. The treatment with a catalase inhibitor, 3-amino-1h-1,2,4-triazole, increased oxidative damage and apoptosis induced by H(2)O(2), and in contrast, purified catalase inhibited the enhancement of oxidative damage by H(2)O(2) in ceramide-pretreated cells, suggesting that the oxidative effect of ceramide is involved in catalase regulation. Indeed, C(2)-ceramide inhibited the activity of immunoprecipitated catalase and decreased the levels of catalase protein in a time-dependent manner. Moreover, acetyl-Asp-Met-Gln-Asp-aldehyde, which dominantly inhibited caspase-3 and blocked the increase of oxidative damage and apoptosis due to C(2)-ceramide-induced catalase depletion at protein and activity levels. In vitro, active and purified caspase-3, but not caspase-6, -8, and -9, inhibited catalase activity and induced the proteolysis of catalase protein whereas these in vitro effects of caspase-3 were blocked by acetyl-Asp-Met-Gln-Asp-aldehyde. Taken together, it is suggested that H(2)O(2) enhances apoptosis in ceramide-pretreated cells, because ceramide increases oxidative damage by inhibition of ROS scavenging ability through caspase-3-dependent proteolysis of catalase. 相似文献

Expression of the P-glycoprotein (Pgp) is proved to be one of the main reasons for the development of the multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype by cancer cells. The effect of Pgp on the properties of lipid monolayers was studied using membrane fractions of sensitive and Pgp over-expressing multidrug resistance cancer cells containing 11, 24 or 32% of Pgp relative to the total content of membrane proteins. The effect of the Pgp membrane concentration on the properties of monolayers prepared from the membrane fractions was analyzed by the Langmuir-Blodgett method. The subphase composition was found to play a critical role in the stability of monolayers at any Pgp concentration. The optimal subphase comprised 10 mM tris-HCl buffer, pH 6.5, which made it possible to create very stable monolayer films with the pressure of collapse of about 30-40 mN/m. Monolayers prepared from membrane fractions of sensitive cells and cells containing the maximum (32%) amount of Pgp were found to be much more stable compared with fractions comprising 11 or 24% of Pgp. The analysis of monolayer compression dynamics revealed three distinct stages: (1) the self-organization of lipid molecules, which is characterized by an abrupt change of surface potential; (2) the compression of Pgp molecules at the constant potential of monolayers; and (3) the compression of lipid molecules, which is characterized by a quasilinear increase of both pressure and surface potential. It was shown that the specific surface areas of monolayers formed from sensitive and Pgp-enriched membranes containing 11 or 24% of Pgp are very similar, whereas the surface area of the monolayer formed from membranes containing 32% of Pgp is nearly 1.5-fold greater. This fact may reflect the effect of the threshold rearrangement of the structure of lipid molecules or cooperative modifications of lipid-Pgp interactions induced by the increase in the Pgp content from 24 to 32%. The effect of verapamil, a well-known Pgp modulator, on the properties of monolayers was studied. It was show that verapamil is able to induce changes of the surface of Pgp-containing monolayers, and these modifications are maximal at the Pgp:verapamil 1:1 molar ratio. The data present the first experimental evidence for the possible intervention of Pgp modulator into the processes of lipid-lipid or lipid-Pgp cooperative interactions within Pgp-enriched membranes. 相似文献

Oxidative stress provokes atherogenic changes in adipokine gene expression in 3T3-L1 adipocytes 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Increased oxidative stress has been associated with obesity-related disorders. In this study, we investigated how oxidative stress, in different ways of exposure, regulates gene expression of various adipokines in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Exposure to 100-500microM H(2)O(2) for 10min, as well as exposure to 5-25mU/ml glucose oxidase for 18h, similarly decreased adiponectin, leptin, and resistin mRNAs, and increased plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 mRNA. Secretion levels of adipokines were also changed by oxidative stress in parallel with mRNA expression levels. Although a peak increase in plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 mRNA was achieved between 4 and 8h after exposure to H(2)O(2) for 10min, significant decreases in adiponectin and resistin mRNA were observed after 16h, while leptin mRNA was decreased earlier. Our results suggest that oxidative stress, even of short duration, has a significant impact on the regulation of various adipokine gene expressions favoring atherosclerosis. 相似文献

Rapid alteration of cellular redox homeostasis upon exposure to cadmium and mercury in alfalfa seedlings 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Ortega-Villasante C Hernández LE Rellán-Alvarez R Del Campo FF Carpena-Ruiz RO 《The New phytologist》2007,176(1):96-107
Here, the kinetics of oxidative stress responses of alfalfa (Medicago sativa) seedlings to cadmium (Cd) and mercury (Hg) (0, 3, 10 and 30 microm) exposure, expanding from a few minutes to 24 h, were studied. Intracellular oxidative stress was analysed using 2',7'-dichlorofluorescin diacetate and extracellular hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) production was studied with Amplex Red. Growth inhibition, concentrations of ascorbate, glutathione (GSH), homoglutathione (hGSH), Cd and Hg, ascorbate peroxidase (APX) activity, and expression of genes related to GSH metabolism were also determined. Both Cd and Hg increased cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and extracellular H(2)O(2) formation, but in different ways. The increase was mild and slow with Cd, but more rapid and transient with Hg. Hg treatments also caused a higher cell death rate, significant oxidation of hGSH, as well as increased APX activity and transient overexpression of glutathione reductase 2, glutamylcysteinyl synthetase, and homoglutathione synthetase genes. However, Cd caused minor alterations. Hg accumulation was one order of magnitude higher than Cd accumulation. The different kinetics of early physiological responses in vivo to Cd and Hg might be relevant to the characterization of their mechanisms of toxicity. Thus, high accumulation of Hg might explain the metabolism poisoning observed in Hg-treated seedlings. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the activation of JNK1/2 signalling pathway and the respective cellular phenotype
of H9c2 cardiac myoblasts during two distinct types of oxidative insult. We examined the dose- and time-dependent activation
of JNK1/2 pathway by exogenous H2O2, both under transient and sustained stimulation. At 2 h of either sustained or transient treatment, maximal phosphorylation
of c-Jun was observed, coincidently with the activation of nuclear JNK1/2; under sustained stress, these phosphorylation levels
remained elevated above basal for up to 6 h, whereas under transient stress they declined to basal ones within 4 h of withdrawal.
Furthermore, the JNK1/2 selective inhibitor SP600125 abolished the c-jun phosphorylation induced by oxidative stress. Our
results using cell viability assays and light microscopy revealed that sustained H2O2 stimulation significantly and time-dependently decreased H9c2 viability, in contrast to transient stimulation; SP600125 (10 μM)
abolished cell death induced by sustained as well as cell survival induced by transient oxidative stress. Hoechst staining
showed an increase in DNA condensation during sustained, but not during transient stimulation. Moreover, from the antioxidants
tested, catalase and superoxide dismutase prevented oxidative stress-induced cell death. Flow cytometry studies reconfirmed
that sustained oxidative stress induced apoptosis, whereas transient resulted in the recovery of cardiac myoblasts within
24 h. We conclude that in H9c2 myoblasts, sustained activation of JNK1/2 signalling pathway during oxidative stimulation is
followed by an apoptotic phenotype, while transient JNK1/2 activation correlates well with cell survival, suggesting a dual
role of this signalling pathway in cell fate determination. 相似文献

Role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in endothelial cell protection against cytotoxic agents 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

Autocrine expression of VEGF has been detected in endothelial cells under hypoxia or oxidative stress. However, the functional significance of this VEGF autocrine expression remains undefined. To analyze the role of autocrine VEGF in the endothelial response against injury, cultured bovine aorta endothelial cells (BAEC) were challenged with potentially cytotoxic substances with different chemical structure and pharmacologic properties, namely cytochalasin D (CyD), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and cyclosporine A (CsA). Our results revealed that: i. In particular conditions, exposure to potentially cytotoxic agents as CyD, H2O2 or CsA results in significant BAEC cytoprotection rather than injury. ii. The response to the 3 agents is shifted to a cell damaging pattern in the presence of a specific anti VEGF monoclonal antibody (mAb). iii. CyD and H2O2 markedly stimulate the autocrine expression of VEGF mRNA and VEGF protein. In conclusion, the present study reveals a protective mechanism of endothelial cells against injury involving autocrine VEGF production. Moreover, the occurrence of a significant increase in VEGF expression accompanying this defensive mechanism is further disclosed. 相似文献

Mammalian liver exhibits expression of members of the family of multidrug resistance (mdr) transporters (P-glycoproteins). P-glycoprotein isoforms encoded by mdr1 genes participate in extrusion of an array of xenobiotics into the bile. Induction of mdr1b mRNA expression has been shown to occur in rat hepatocytes in response to hepatotrophic growth factors. As the cytokine tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is known to exert a direct mitogenic effect on hepatocytes, its influence on mdr1b expression was investigated. In primary rat hepatocytes cultured in the absence of TNF-α, a time-dependent increase in basal expression of mdr1b mRNA and in immunodetectable P-glycoprotein was observed. In cells treated with TNF-α (4,000 U/ml) for 3 days, expression of mdr1b mRNA and of immunodetectable P-glycoprotein was induced approximately twofold. Moreover, intracellular steady-state levels of the mdr1 substrate rhodamine 123 were decreased in cells pretreated with TNF-α in comparison to controls, indicating an increase in functional transporter(s) mediating dye extrusion. Treatment of hepatocytes with antioxidants (1 mM ascorbic acid and 2% dimethyl sulfoxide) for 3 days markedly suppressed mdr1b mRNA and P-glycoprotein expression both in cells cultured in the presence of TNF-α and in the absence of the cytokine, but did not fully abolish mdr1b mRNA induction by TNF-α, supporting the notion that reactive oxygen species participate in regulation of basal mdr1b gene expression during hepatocyte culture. In conclusion, the present data indicate that by inducing mdr1b expression in hepatocytes, TNF-α may affect the capacity of the liver for extrusion or detoxification of endogenous or xenobiotic mdr1 substrates.

ATP-binding cassette (ABC) efflux transporters are expressed in the human placenta where they are thought to help protect the fetus from xenobiotics. To evaluate models for analysis of ABC transporter function and regulation in the placenta, we have characterized the expression and activity of multidrug resistance (MDR) 1/P glycoprotein (Pgp), MDR3/Pgp, breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), and multidrug resistance proteins 1 and 2 (MRPs 1, 2) in differentiating primary trophoblast cells and BeWo and Jar cell lines. Real-time PCR and immunoblotting were used for analysis of mRNA and protein expression, respectively. Functional activity was measured using selective inhibitors of efflux of fluorescent substrates, calcein-AM (Pgp and MRPs) and Hoechst 33342 (BCRP). The levels of MDR1 mRNA and protein expression were much higher in trophoblast than in Jar and especially BeWo cells. Expression of MDR3 protein was also lower in BeWo cells. Levels of MDR3 expression were markedly higher than MDR1 levels in all tested cell types. Levels of both MDR1 and MDR3 expression decreased during trophoblast differentiation/syncytialization. BCRP was highly expressed in all cell types and increased with trophoblast differentiation. MRP1 expression was much lower in trophoblasts compared with both cell lines. In contrast to its abundant mRNA expression, MRP2 protein was practically undetectable in BeWo and Jar cells and was present only at very low levels in trophoblast. Functional studies confirmed the presence of active Pgp and BCRP in all studied cell types, whereas MRP functional activity was detected only in BeWo and Jar cells. Both cell lines may be useful models for studying various aspects of placental ABC transporter expression and function, but also have significant limitations. With respect to their ABC protein expression profile, Jar cells are more similar to nondifferentiated cytotrophoblast, whereas BeWo appear to more closely reflect differentiated syncytiotrophoblast. 相似文献
