Reactive oxygen species produced by NADPH oxidase are involved in pollen tube growth 总被引:14,自引:2,他引:12
Tip-localized reactive oxygen species (ROS) were detected in growing pollen tubes by chloromethyl dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate oxidation, while tip-localized extracellular superoxide production was detected by nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction. To investigate the origin of the ROS we cloned a fragment of pollen specific tobacco NADPH oxidase (NOX) closely related to a pollen specific NOX from Arabidopsis. Transfection of tobacco pollen tubes with NOX-specific antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) resulted in decreased amount of NtNOX mRNA, lower NOX activity and pollen tube growth inhibition. The ROS scavengers and the NOX inhibitor diphenylene iodonium chloride (DPI) inhibited growth and ROS formation in tobacco pollen tube cultures. Exogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) rescued the growth inhibition caused by NOX antisense ODNs. Exogenous CaCl2 increased NBT reduction at the pollen tube tip, suggesting that Ca2+ increases the activity of pollen NOX in vivo. The results show that tip-localized ROS produced by a NOX enzyme is needed to sustain the normal rate of pollen tube growth and that this is likely to be a general mechanism in the control of tip growth of polarized plant cells. 相似文献

Main conclusion
Solar ultraviolet irradiation regulates anthocyanin synthesis in apple peel by modulating the production of reactive oxygen species via plasma membrane NADPH oxidase instead of other pathways. The synthesis of anthocyanin in apple peels is dependent upon solar irradiation. Using 3-mm commercial glass to attenuate solar UV-A and UV-B light, we confirmed that solar UV irradiation regulated anthocyanin synthesis in apple peels after exposing previously bagged fruit to sunlight. During sunlight exposure, UV attenuation did not affect the expression of MdHY5, MdCOP1, or MdCRY2, but significantly lowered plasma membrane NADPH oxidase activity and superoxide anion concentrations. UV attenuation also reduced the expression levels of MdMYB10, MdPAL, MdCHS, MdF3H, MdDFR, MdANS and MdUFGT1, UDP-glycose:flavonoid 3-O-glycosyltransferase (UFGT) activity, and local concentrations of anthocyanin and quercetin-3-glycoside. In contrast, exogenous application of hydrogen peroxide could enhance anthocyanin and quercetin-3-glycoside synthesis. Xanthophyll cycle pool size on a chlorophyll basis was higher but its de-epoxidation was lower under direct sunlight irradiation than that under UV-attenuating conditions. This suggests that reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced in chloroplast are not major contributors to anthocyanin synthesis regulation. Inhibition of plasma membrane NADPH oxidase activity lowered the production of ROS through this mechanism, significantly inhibited the synthesis of anthocyanin, and increased the total production of ROS in apple peel under direct sunlight irradiation, suggesting that ROS produced via plasma membrane NADPH oxidase regulates anthocyanin synthesis. In summary, solar UV irradiation regulated anthocyanin synthesis in apple peels by modulating the production of ROS via plasma membrane NADPH oxidase. 相似文献3.

Reactive oxygen species production and activation mechanism of the rice NADPH oxidase OsRbohB 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by plant NADPH oxidases (NOXes) are important in plant innate immunity. The Oryza sativa respiratory burst oxidase homologue B (OsRbohB) gene encodes a NOX the regulatory mechanisms of which are largely unknown. Here, we used a heterologous expression system to demonstrate that OsRbohB shows ROS-producing activity. Treatment with ionomycin, a Ca(2+) ionophore, and calyculin A, a protein phosphatase inhibitor, activated ROS-producing activity; it was thus OsRbohB activated by both Ca(2+) and protein phosphorylation. Mutation analyses revealed that not only the first EF-hand motif but also the upstream amino-terminal region were necessary for Ca(2+)-dependent activation, while these regions are not required for phosphorylation-induced ROS production. 相似文献

In addition to ultraviolet radiation, human skin is also exposed to infrared radiation (IR) from natural sunlight. IR typically increases the skin temperature. This study examined whether or not heat shock-induced ROS stimulates MMPs in keratinocyte HaCaT cells. In HaCaT cells, heat shock was found to increase the intracellular ROS levels, including hydrogen peroxide and superoxide. The heat shock treatment induced MMP-1 and MMP-9, but not MMP-2, at the mRNA and protein levels. Moreover, heat shock caused the rapid activation of the three distinct MAPKs, ERK, JNK, and p38 kinase. The heat shock-induced expression of MMP-1 and MMP-9 was significantly suppressed by a pretreatment with the antioxidant NAC or catalase. On the other hand, SOD inhibited heat shock-induced activity of MMP-9 induction, but not MMP-1. A pretreatment with NAC or catalase, but not SOD, attenuated the phosphorylation of ERK, JNK, and p38 kinase by heat shock. The potential sites of ROS generation by heat shock along with its role in the heat shock-induced expression of MMP-1 and MMP-9 were next analyzed. These results indicate that heat shock-induced ROS is promoted via NADPH oxidase, xanthine oxidase, and mitochondria. Indeed, the NADPH oxidase and xanthine oxidase activities were increased by heat shock. Overall, the ROS produced by heat shock may play an important role in the heat shock-induced activation of MAPKs, which can induce MMP-1 and-9 expressions. 相似文献

Earlier studies have demonstrated that mast cells produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), which play a role in regulating Ca(2+) influx, while in other cell types ROS are produced in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. We sought to determine whether ROS are produced downstream of the extracellular Ca(2+) entry in mast cells. Thapsigargin (TG), a receptor-independent agonist, could evoke a robust burst of intracellular ROS. However, this response was distinct from the antigen-induced burst of ROS with respect to time course and dependence on Ca(2+) and phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K). The antigen-induced ROS generation occurred immediately, while the TG-induced ROS generation occurred with a significant lag time (~2 min). Antigen but not TG caused extracellular release of superoxide (O(2)(*-))/hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), which was blocked by diphenyleneiodonium, apocynin, and wortmannin. A capacitative Ca(2+) entry resulted in the generation of O(2)(*-) in the mitochondria in a PI3K-independent manner. Blockade of ROS generation inhibited TG-induced mediator release. Finally, when used together, antigen and TG evoked the release of leukotriene C(4), tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and interleukin-13 as well as ROS generation synergistically. These results suggest that ROS produced upstream of Ca(2+) influx by NADPH oxidase and downstream of Ca(2+) influx by the mitochondria regulate the proinflammatory response of mast cells. 相似文献

Human monocytes use Rac1, not Rac2, in the NADPH oxidase complex 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Phagocyte NADPH oxidase is critical for defense against pathogens and contributes to inflammatory tissue injury. One component of the NADPH oxidase complex is the small GTP-binding protein Rac. There are two isoforms of Rac, and Rac2 is the predominant isoform in neutrophils and has been shown to be essential for NADPH oxidase activity. In primary human monocytes we report that in contrast to neutrophils, Rac1 is the predominantly expressed isoform. Upon monocyte activation by a variety of agents, we found that Rac1 dissociates from Rho GDP dissociation inhibitor (RhoGDI) and translocates to the membrane. We also found that Rac1 interacts with two other NADPH oxidase components, p67phox and p47phox, upon monocyte activation. These data indicate that Rac1, and not Rac2, is a component of the activated NADPH oxidase in monocytes. This finding suggests that it may be possible to selectively interfere with either monocyte or neutrophil NADPH oxidase activity, thereby selectively targeting chronic versus acute inflammatory processes. 相似文献

Local cutaneous heating produces vasodilation that is largely nitric oxide (NO) dependent. We showed that angiotensin II (ANG II) attenuates this by an ANG II receptor, type 1 (AT1R)-dependent mechanism that is reversible with the antioxidant ascorbate, indicating oxidative stress. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by ANG II employ NADPH and xanthine oxidase pathways. To determine whether these mechanisms pertain to skin, we measured cutaneous local heating with 10 μM ANG II, using apocynin to inhibit NADPH oxidase and allopurinol to inhibit xanthine oxidase. We also inhibited superoxide with tempol, and H(2)O(2) with ebselen. We heated the skin of the calf in 8 healthy volunteers (24.5-29.9 yr old) to 42°C and measured local blood flow to assess the percentage of maximum cutaneous vascular conductance. We remeasured while perfusing allopurinol, apocynin, ebselen, and tempol through individual microdialysis catheters. This was then repeated with ANG II combined with antioxidant drugs. tempol and apocynin alone had no effect on the heat response. Allopurinol enhanced the entire response (125% of heat alone), while ebselen suppressed the heat plateau (76% of heat alone). ANG II alone caused significant attenuation of the entire heat response (52%). When added to ANG II, Allopurinol partially reversed the ANG II attenuation. Heat with ebselen and ANG II were similar to heat and ANG II; ebselen only partially reversed the ANG II attenuation. Apocynin and tempol each partially reversed the attenuation caused by ANG II. This suggests that ROS, produced by ANG II via NADPH and xanthine oxidase pathways, modulates the response of skin to the application of heat, and thus contributes to the control of local cutaneous blood flow. 相似文献

Our main objective was to determine whether reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as superoxide (O(2)(-)) and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), contribute to altered pulmonary vascular responses in piglets with chronic hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension. Piglets were raised in either room air (control) or hypoxia for 3 days. The effect of the cell-permeable superoxide dismutase mimetic (SOD; M40403) and/or PEG-catalase (PEG-CAT) on responses to acetylcholine (ACh) was measured in endothelium-intact and denuded pulmonary resistance arteries (PRAs; 90-to-300-microm diameter). To determine whether NADPH oxidase is an enzymatic source of ROS, PRA responses to ACh were measured in the presence and absence of a NADPH oxidase inhibitor, apocynin (APO). A Western blot technique was used to assess expression of the NADPH oxidase subunit, p67phox. A lucigenin-derived chemiluminescence technique was used to measure ROS production stimulated by the NADPH oxidase substrate, NADPH. ACh responses, which were dilation in intact control arteries but constriction in both intact and denuded hypoxic arteries, were diminished by M40403, PEG-CAT, the combination of M40403 plus PEG-CAT, as well as by APO. Although total amounts were not different, membrane-associated p67phox was greater in PRAs from hypoxic compared with control piglets. NADPH-stimulated lucigenin luminescence was nearly doubled in PRAs from hypoxic vs. control piglets. We conclude that ROS generated by NADPH oxidase contribute to the aberrant pulmonary arterial responses in piglets exposed to 3 days of hypoxia. 相似文献

The adaptive immune system plays an important role in host defense against invading micro-organisms. Yet, mice deficient in T- and B-cells are surprisingly healthy and develop few spontaneous infections when raised under specific pathogen-free conditions (SPF). The objective of this study was to ascertain what role phagocyte-associated NADPH oxidase or myeloperoxidase (MPO) plays in host defense in mice lacking both T- and B-cells. To do this, we generated lymphopenic mice deficient in either NADPH oxidase or MPO by crossing gp91(phox)-deficient (gp91 ko) or MPO ko mice with mice deficient in recombinase activating gene-1 (RAG ko). We found that neither gp91 ko, MPO ko mice nor lymphocyte-deficient RAG ko mice developed spontaneous infections when raised under SPF conditions and all mice had life spans similar to wild-type (WT) animals. In contrast, gp91xRAG double-deficient (DKO) but not MPOxRAG DKO mice developed spontaneous multi-organ bacterial and fungal infections early in life and lived only a few months. Infections in the gp91xRAG DKO mice were characterized by granulomatous inflammation of the skin, liver, heart, brain, kidney, and lung. Addition of antibiotics to the drinking water attenuated the spontaneous infections and increased survival of the mice. Oyster glycogen-elicited polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) and macrophages obtained from gp91 ko and gp91xRAG DKO mice had no detectable NADPH oxidase activity whereas WT, RAG ko, and MPOxRAG DKO PMNs and macrophages produced large and similar amounts of superoxide in response to phorbol myristate acetate. The enhanced mortality of the gp91xRAG DKO mice was not due to defects in inflammatory cell recruitment or NO synthase activity (iNOS) as total numbers of elicited PMNs and macrophages as well as PMN- and macrophage-derived production of nitric oxide-derived metabolites in these mice were similar and not reduced when compared to that of WT mice. Taken together, our data suggest that that NADPH oxidase but not MPO (nor iNOS) is required for host defense in lymphopenic mice and that lymphocytes and NADPH oxidase may compensate for each other's deficiency in providing resistance to spontaneous bacterial infections. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species produced by NAD(P)H oxidase inhibit apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cells 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15

One reason why pancreatic cancer is so aggressive and unresponsive to treatments is its resistance to apoptosis. We report here that reactive oxygen species (ROS) are a prosurvival, antiapoptotic factor in pancreatic cancer cells. Human pancreatic adenocarcinoma MIA PaCa-2 and PANC-1 cells generated ROS, which was stimulated by growth factors (serum, insulin-like growth factor I, or fibroblast growth factor-2). Growth factors also stimulated membrane NAD(P)H oxidase activity in these cells. Both intracellular ROS and NAD(P)H oxidase activity were inhibited by antioxidants tiron and N-acetylcysteine and the inhibitor of flavoprotein-dependent oxidases, diphenylene iodonium, but not by inhibitors of various other ROS-generating enzymes. Using Rho(0) cells deficient in mitochondrial DNA, we showed that a nonmitochondrial NAD(P)H oxidase is a major source of growth factor-induced ROS in pancreatic cancer cells. Among proteins that have been implicated in NAD(P)H oxidase activity, MIA PaCa-2 and PANC-1 cells do not express the phagocytic gp91(phox) subunit but express several nonphagocytic oxidase (NOX) isoforms. Transfection with Nox4 antisense oligonucleotide inhibited NAD(P)H oxidase activity and ROS production in MIA PaCa-2 and PANC-1 cells. Inhibiting ROS with the antioxidants, Nox4 antisense, or MnSOD overexpression all stimulated apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cells as measured by internucleosomal DNA fragmentation, phosphatidylserine externalization, cytochrome c release, and effector caspase activation. The results show that growth factor-induced ROS produced by NAD(P)H oxidase (probably Nox4) protect pancreatic cancer cells from apoptosis. This mechanism may play an important role in pancreatic cancer resistance to treatment and thus represent a novel therapeutic target. 相似文献

IL-2 complexes have substantial effects on the cellular immune system, and this approach is being explored for therapeutic application in infection and cancer. However, the impact of such treatments on subsequent encounter with pathogens has not been investigated. In this study, we report that naive mice treated with a short course of IL-2 complexes show enhanced protection from newly encountered bacterial and viral infections. IL-2 complex treatment expands both the NK and CD8 memory cell pool, including a recently described population of preexisting memory-phenotype T cells responsive to previously unencountered foreign Ags. Surprisingly, prolonged IL-2 complex treatment decreased CD8 T cell function and protective immunity. These data reveal the impact of cytokine complex treatment on the primary response to infection. 相似文献

The nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)/nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase and the xanthine oxidase (XOD) systems generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). In the present study, to characterize the difference between the two systems, the kinetics of ROS generated by both the NADH oxidase and XOD systems were analysed by an electron spin resonance (ESR) spin trapping method using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO), 5-(diethoxyphosphoryl)-5-methyl-pyrroline N-oxide (DEPMPO) and 5-(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propoxy cyclophosphoryl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (CYPMPO). As a result, two major differences in ROS kinetics were found between the two systems: (i) the kinetics of (?)OH and (ii) the kinetics of hydrogen peroxide. In the NADH oxidase system, the interaction of hydrogen peroxide with each component of the enzyme system (NADPH, NADH oxidase and FAD) was found to generate (?)OH. In contrast, (?)OH generation was found to be independent of hydrogen peroxide in the XOD system. In addition, the hydrogen peroxide level in the NADPH-NADH oxidase system was much lower than measured in the XOD system. This lower level of free hydrogen peroxide is most likely due to the interaction between hydrogen peroxide and NADPH, because the hydrogen peroxide level was reduced by ~90% in the presence of NADPH. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are implicated in plant innate immunity. NADPH oxidase (RBOH; for Respiratory Burst Oxidase Homolog) plays a central role in the oxidative burst, and EF-hand motifs in the N terminus of this protein suggest possible regulation by Ca(2+). However, regulatory mechanisms are largely unknown. We identified Ser-82 and Ser-97 in the N terminus of potato (Solanum tuberosum) St RBOHB as potential phosphorylation sites. An anti-phosphopeptide antibody (pSer82) indicated that Ser-82 was phosphorylated by pathogen signals in planta. We cloned two potato calcium-dependent protein kinases, St CDPK4 and St CDPK5, and mass spectrometry analyses showed that these CDPKs phosphorylated only Ser-82 and Ser-97 in the N terminus of St RBOHB in a calcium-dependent manner. Ectopic expression of the constitutively active mutant of St CDPK5, St CDPK5VK, provoked ROS production in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves. The CDPK-mediated ROS production was disrupted by knockdown of Nb RBOHB in N. benthamiana. The loss of function was complemented by heterologous expression of wild-type potato St RBOHB but not by a mutant (S82A/S97A). Furthermore, the heterologous expression of St CDPK5VK phosphorylated Ser-82 of St RBOHB in N. benthamiana. These results suggest that St CDPK5 induces the phosphorylation of St RBOHB and regulates the oxidative burst. 相似文献

In several human B- and T-lymphoid cell lines, reactive oxygen species (ROS) were produced in a time- and dose-dependent manner in response to menadione (vitamin K3) and anti-Fas (CD95/APO-1) mAb when ROS formation was determined by a chemiluminescence-based method. The ROS evoked by menadione and anti-Fas could be first observed as rapidly as within 20 seconds after the stimulation, reaching a maximum within 5-10 min, and declining slowly thereafter. Both menadione and anti-Fas also induced increased tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple cellular proteins whose pattern was similar to that observed upon hydrogen peroxide treatment. For each agent, the kinetics of the increased tyrosine phosphorylation was similar to that of ROS production, and an NADPH oxidase inhibitor, diphenyleneiodonium, prevented both of these two events. Our results suggest a close link between ROS production and tyrosine phosphorylation induced by divergent extracellular stimuli and the possible role of NADPH oxidase or its related enzyme. 相似文献

We previously reported that the role of reactive oxygen intermediates (ROIs) in NF-kappaB activation by proinflammatory cytokines was cell specific. However, the sources for ROIs in various cell types are yet to be determined and might include 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) and NADPH oxidase. 5-LOX and 5-LOX activating protein (FLAP) are coexpressed in lymphoid cells but not in monocytic or epithelial cells. Stimulation of lymphoid cells with interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) led to ROI production and NF-kappaB activation, which could both be blocked by antioxidants or FLAP inhibitors, confirming that 5-LOX was the source of ROIs and was required for NF-kappaB activation in these cells. IL-1beta stimulation of epithelial cells did not generate any ROIs and NF-kappaB induction was not influenced by 5-LOX inhibitors. However, reintroduction of a functional 5-LOX system in these cells allowed ROI production and 5-LOX-dependent NF-kappaB activation. In monocytic cells, IL-1beta treatment led to a production of ROIs which is independent of the 5-LOX enzyme but requires the NADPH oxidase activity. This pathway involves the Rac1 and Cdc42 GTPases, two enzymes which are not required for NF-kappaB activation by IL-1beta in epithelial cells. In conclusion, three different cell-specific pathways lead to NF-kappaB activation by IL-1beta: a pathway dependent on ROI production by 5-LOX in lymphoid cells, an ROI- and 5-LOX-independent pathway in epithelial cells, and a pathway requiring ROI production by NADPH oxidase in monocytic cells. 相似文献

Apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF)-deficient harlequin (Hq) mice undergo neurodegeneration associated with a 40–50% reduction in complex I level and activity. We tested the hypothesis that AIF and complex I regulate reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by brain mitochondria. Isolated Hq brain mitochondria oxidizing complex I substrates displayed no difference compared to wild type (WT) in basal ROS production, H2O2 removal, or ROS production stimulated by complex I inhibitors rotenone or 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium. In contrast, ROS production caused by reverse electron transfer to complex I was attenuated by ~50% in Hq mitochondria oxidizing the complex II substrate succinate. Basal and rotenone-stimulated rates of H2O2 release from in situ mitochondria did not differ between Hq and WT synaptosomes metabolizing glucose, nor did the level of in vivo oxidative protein carbonyl modifications detected in synaptosomes, brain mitochondria, or homogenates. Our results suggest that AIF does not directly modulate ROS release from brain mitochondria. In addition, they demonstrate that in contrast to ROS produced by mitochondria oxidizing succinate, ROS release from in situ synaptosomal mitochondria or from isolated brain mitochondria oxidizing complex I substrates is not proportional to the amount of complex I. These findings raise the important possibility that complex I contributes less to physiological ROS production by brain mitochondria than previously suggested. 相似文献

Homologous to lymphotoxins, shows inducible expression, and competes with herpes simplex virus (HSV) glycoprotein D (gD) for herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM; TR2) (LIGHT), a ligand of herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM), increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) and enhanced the destruction of bacteria in human monocytes. In this study, rhLIGHT was found to increase the expression of the chemokine receptors, chemokine receptor 1 (CCR1) and CCR2, as well as to accelerate the migration activity of human monocytes. Additionally, rhLIGHT was found to increase ROS via NADPH oxidase p47phox phosphorylation, which was found to be required for LIGHT-induced NF-κB activation, CCR1 and CCR2 expression, migration and IL-8 and TNF-α production. Taken together, these results indicate that NADPH oxidase activation is required for rhLIGHT-induced migration in human monocytes. 相似文献
