Intraamniotic Ethyl Docosahexaenoate Administration Protects Fetal Rat Brain from Ischemic Stress

Abstract: Studies were conducted on the prenatal rat given a single intraamniotic injection of ethyl docosahexaenoate (Et-DHA; 9.6–12 mmol per fetus) or subjected to an n-3 fatty acid-deficient diet to assess the role of docosahexaenoate on oxidative stress during episodes of ischemia. A time-dependent decrease in the ability of brain slices from animals treated with Et-DHA to produce thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TBARS), most pronounced after 1 day (from 58.1 ± 4.22 to 15.9 ± 1.6 nmol/mg of DNA), was noticed on stimulation with Fe²⁺. Brain slices from fetuses treated for 1 day with Et-DHA and those from untreated fetuses produced TBARS levels of 46.7 ± 6.5 and 114.8 ± 10.8 nmol/mg of DNA, respectively, after a 20-min occlusion of the fetal-maternal circulation at embryonic day 20, suggesting a protective effect of Et-DHA. The protective effect of a single dose of Et-DHA in utero remained high up to 3 days after injection ( p < 0.001) and was long-lasting, yet not significant, up to 3 days following birth. In agreement with a reduction in TBARS production by slices, the endogenous levels of TBARS in brains of Et-DHA-treated animals were lower than in the controls. Et-DHA-injected fetuses exhibited significantly higher levels of esterified DHA than the non-injected controls. n-3-deficient diet given to dams for 2 weeks before birth did not affect the levels of TBARS production in control fetal brain slices but abolished the increase caused by ischemia. Et-DHA administration for 24 h to n-3-deficient fetuses reduced the amount of TBARS produced by the fetal brain slices from 49.1 ± 8.5 to 31.7 ± 4.1 nmol/mg of DNA. A protective effect from oxidative damage after postischemic oxidative stress in fetal brain following DHA supplements is suggested, whereas the effect of n-3 fatty acid deficiency in this regard is more ambiguous.     

Venlafaxine Modulates Depression-Induced Oxidative Stress in Brain and Medulla of Rat

Venlafaxine is an approved antidepressant that is an inhibitor of both serotonin and norepinephrine transporters. Medical treatment with oral venlafaxine can be beneficial to depression due to reducing free radical production in the brain and medulla of depression- induced rats because oxidative stress may a play role in some depression. We investigated the effect of venlafaxine administration and experimental depression on lipid peroxidation and antioxidant levels in cortex brain, medulla and erythrocytes of rats. Thirty male wistar rats were used and were randomly divided into three groups. Venlafaxine (20 mg/kg) was orally supplemented to depression-induced rats constituting the first group for four week. Second group was depression-induced group although third group was used as control. Depressions in the first and second groups were induced on day zero of the study by chronic mild stress. Brain, medulla and erythrocytes samples were taken from all animals on day 28. Depression resulted in significant decrease in the glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity and vitamin C concentrations of cortex brain, glutathione (GSH) value of medulla although their levels were increased by venlafaxine administration to the animals of depression group. The lipid peroxidation levels in the three tissues and nitric oxide value in cortex brain elevated although their levels were decreased by venlafaxine administration. There were no significant changes in cortex brain vitamin A, erythrocytes vitamin C, GSH-Px and GSH, medulla vitamin A, GSH and GSH-Px values. In conclusion, cortex brain within the three tissues was most affected by oxidative stress although there was the beneficial effect of venlafaxine in the brain of depression-induced rats on investigated antioxidant defenses in the rat model. The treatment of depression by venlafaxine may also play a role in preventing oxidative stress. Abstract of the paper was submitted in 1st Ion Channels and Oxidative Stress Congress, 14–16 September 2006, Isparta, Turkey.     

The Evolution of Oxidative Stress Indicators in the Course of Myocardial Ischemia

Two studies were carried out in patients suffering from Unstable Angina (UA) and Myocardial Infarction (MI).

The first study investigated the variations of the Malondialdehyde (MDA) rate at 1st, 5th. 12th day of treatment in 27 patients (15 UA and 12 MI), compared to 15 controls.

This rate varied in a different way, with a first peak and a rapid decrease in UA, where it regularly decreases in MI.

The second study focused on the variations of MDA, Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Glutathion Peroxydase (GPX) rates at 2nd. 12th days in 53 patients (19 UA and 34 M I), compared to 35 controls. Here again, the rate of MDA was high on day 2 and decreased on day 12. The rate of GPX showed similar evolution while the SOD rate had an opposite evolution.

These two studies confirm the evidence of oxidative stress in acute coronary deficiency.

Exposure Time Related Oxidative Action of Hyperbaric Oxygen in Rat Brain

Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) is known to cause oxidative stress in several organs and tissues. Due to its high rate of blood flow and oxygen consumption, the brain is one of the most sensitive organs to this effect. The present study was performed to elucidate the relation of HBO exposure time to its oxidative effects in rats’ brain cortex tissue. For this purpose, 49 rats were randomly divided into five groups. Except the control group, study groups were subjected to three atmospheres HBO for 30, 60, 90, and 120 min. Their cerebral cortex layer was taken immediately after exposure and used for analysis. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and nitrate–nitrite (NO_X) levels were determined. TBARS and SOD levels were found to increase in a time-dependent manner. GSH-Px activity reflected an inconsistent course. NO_X levels were found to be increased only in the 120 min exposed group. The results of this study suggests that HBO induced oxidative effects are strongly related with exposure time.

Evidence that Plasmalogen is Protective Against Oxidative Stress in the Rat Brain

The antioxidant capabilities of phosphatidylethanolamine plasmalogen (PlsEtn), in vivo, against lipid peroxidation were investigated via acute phosphine (PH₃) administration in rats. Oxidative stress was assessed from measures of malondialdehyde and various enzyme activities, while NMR analyses of lipid and aqueous tissue extracts provided metabolic information in cerebellum, brainstem, and cortex. Brainstem had the highest basal [PlsEtn], and showed only moderate PH₃-induced oxidative damage with no loss of ATP. The lowest basal [PlsEtn] was observed in cortex, where PH₃ caused a 51% decrease in [ATP]. The largest oxidative effect occurred in cerebellum, but [ATP] was unaffected. Myo-inositol+ethanolamine pretreatment attenuated all PH₃ effects. Specifically, the pretreatment attenuated the ATP decrease in cortex, and elevated brain [PlsEtn] in the cerebellum, nearly abolishing the cerebellar oxidative effects. Our data suggest a high basal [PlsEtn], or the capacity to synthesize new ethanolamine lipids (particularly PlsEtn) may protect against PH₃ toxicity.

Mitochondrial Oxidative Stress and Dysfunction in Rat Brain Induced by Carbofuran Exposure

Repeated low-dose exposure to carbofuran exerts its neurotoxic effects by non-cholinergic mechanisms. Emerging evidence indicates that oxidative stress plays an important role in carbofuran neurotoxicity after sub-chronic exposure. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the role of mitochondrial oxidative stress and dysfunction as a primary event responsible for neurotoxic effects observed after sub-chronic carbofuran exposure. Carbofuran was administered to rats at a dose of 1 mg/kg orally for a period of 28 days. There was a significant inhibition in the activity of acetylcholinesterase (66.6%) in brain samples after 28 days of carbofuran exposure. Mitochondrial respiratory chain functions were assessed in terms of MTT (3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazolyl-2)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) reduction and activity of succinate dehydrogenase in isolated mitochondria. It was observed that carbofuran exposure significantly inhibited MTT reduction (31%) and succinate dehydrogenase activity (57%). This was accompanied by decrease in low-molecular weight thiols (66.6%) and total thiols (37.4%) and an increase in lipid peroxidation (43.7%) in the mitochondria isolated from carbofuran-exposed rat brain. The changes in mitochondrial oxidative stress and functions were associated with impaired cognitive and motor functions in the animals exposed to carbofuran as compared to the control animals. Based on these results, it is clear that carbofuran exerts its neurotoxicity by impairing mitochondrial functions leading to oxidative stress and neurobehavioral deficits.

Selenium and Vitamin E Modulates Cigarette Smoke Exposure-Induced Oxidative Stress in Blood of Rats

Cigarette smoke contains about 5,000 chemicals that include organic and metallic compounds. The current study was undertaken to investigate the effects of selenium and vitamin E on oxidative stress-induced damage in rats exposed to cigarette smoke. Forty male rats were equally divided into four groups. The first and second groups were used as control and cigarette smoke groups, respectively. Selenium was administered to rats constituting the third group for 27 days. The Se and vitamin E combination was given to animals in fourth group for 27 days. All groups except the control, were exposed to cigarette smoke starting at the third day of the experiment and continuing for 27 days. The blood samples from all groups were taken at the end of 27 days. Plasma lipid peroxidation, triacylglycerol, and total cholesterol levels were higher in the cigarette smoke group than in the control, although erythrocytic superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities were lower in the cigarette smoke group than in the control. The plasma lipid peroxidation, triacylglycerol, and total cholesterol levels were lower in cigarette smoke+Se+VE group than in the cigarette smoke group, although erythrocytic superoxide dismutase activity and glutathione peroxidase activity in selenium and vitamin E-administered groups were higher than in the exposed to cigarette smoke group. High-density lipoprotein-cholesterol level was not affect by selenium and vitamin E administrations. In conclusion, selenium and vitamin E seem to have protective effects on the cigarette smoke-induced blood toxicity by supporting the enzymatic antioxidant redox systems.     

Antioxidant Effects of SelegilIne in Oxidative Stress Induced by Iron Neonatal Treatment in Rats

Increased levels of iron in specific brain regions have been reported in neurodegenerative disorders. It has been postulated that iron exerts its deleterious effects on the nervous system by inducing oxidative damage. In a previous study, we have shown that iron administered during a particular period of the neonatal life induces oxidative damage in brain regions in adult rats. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the possible protective effect of selegiline, a monoamino-oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitor used in pharmacotherapy of Parkinson’s disease, against iron-induced oxidative stress in the brain. Results have shown that selegiline (1.0 and 10.0 mg/kg), when administered early in life was able to protect the substantia nigra as well as the hippocampus against iron-induced oxidative stress, without affecting striatum. When selegiline (10.0 mg/kg) was administered in the adult life to iron-treated rats, oxidative stress was reduced only in the substantia nigra.     

Glycine Provokes Lipid Oxidative Damage and Reduces the Antioxidant Defenses in Brain Cortex of Young Rats

Patients affected by nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) usually present severe neurological symptoms and suffer from acute episodes of intractable seizures with leukoencephalopathy. Although excitotoxicity seems to be involved in the brain damage of NKH, the mechanisms underlying the neuropathology of this disease are not fully established. The objective of the present study was to investigate the in vitro effects of glycine (GLY), that accumulate at high concentrations in the brain of patients affected by this disorder, on important parameters of oxidative stress, such as lipid peroxidation (thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBA-RS) and chemiluminescence) and the most important non-enzymatic antioxidant defense reduced glutathione (GSH) in cerebral cortex from 30-day-old rats. GLY significantly increased TBA-RS and chemiluminescence values, indicating that this metabolite provokes lipid oxidative damage. Furthermore, the addition of high doses of the antioxidants melatonin, trolox (soluble vitamin E) and GSH fully prevented GLY-induced increase of lipid peroxidation, indicating that free radicals were involved in this effect. GLY also decreased GSH brain concentrations, which was totally blocked by melatonin treatment. Finally, GLY significantly reduced sulfhydryl group content from a commercial GSH solution, but did not oxidize reduced cytochrome C. Our data indicate that oxidative stress elicited in vitro by GLY may possibly contribute at least in part to the pathophysiology of the neurological dysfunction in NKH.     

Protective Effects of Lamotrigine,Aripiprazole and Escitalopram on Depression-induced Oxidative Stress in Rat Brain

We investigated the effects of lamotrigine, aripiprazole and escitalopram administration and experimental depression on lipid peroxidation (LP) and antioxidant levels in cortex of the brain in rats. Forty male wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups. First group was used as control although second group was depression-induced group. Aripiprazole, lamotrigine and escitalopram per day were orally supplemented to chronic mild stress (CMS) depression-induced rats constituting the third, fourth and fifth groups for 28 days, respectively. Depression resulted in significant decrease in the glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity, reduced glutathione and vitamin C of cortex of the brain although their levels and beta-carotene concentrations were increased by the three drugs administrations to the animals of CMS induced depression group. The LP levels in the cortex of the brain and plasma of depression group were elevated although their levels were decreased by the administrations. The increases of antioxidant values in lamotrigine group were higher according to aripiprazole and escitalopram supplemented groups. Vitamin A level did not change in the five groups. In conclusion, the experimental depression is associated with elevated oxidative stress although treatment with lamotrigine has most protective effects on the oxidative stress within three medicines.
