The brain has been suggested to be especially sensitive to damage by reactive oxygen species. In this study, we examined the effects of hyperoxic conditions on the activities and mRNA levels of antioxidant enzymes in reaggregation cultures of rat forebrain cells. Cultures were exposed to 80% oxygen for 12–60 h starting on Days 17 and 33 in culture. Superoxide dismutase activities and mRNA levels were not affected by hyperoxia, whereas catalase activity was slightly decreased after 24 h in 80% oxygen at Day 17. Glutathione peroxidase activity was markedly decreased already after 12 h of hyperoxia, and decreased activities of glutathione reductase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase were also noted. The glutathione peroxidase mRNA levels were increased in hyperoxic cultures at Day 17 but not at Day 33. These results suggest that the enzymatic defense mechanisms against reactive oxygen species in the brain are rather weak and deteriorate during oxidative stress but that a potential for compensatory upregulation exists at least during the first postnatal weeks. 相似文献

Weak antioxidant defenses make the heart a target for damage in copper-deficient rats 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Copper deficiency causes more salient pathologic changes in the heart than in the liver of rats. Although oxidative stress has been implicated in copper deficiency-induced pathogenesis, little is known about the selective toxicity to the heart. Therefore, we examined the relationship between the severity of copper deficiency-induced oxidative damage and the capacity of antioxidant defense in heart and liver to investigate a possible mechanism for the selective cardiotoxicity. Weanling rats were fed a purified diet deficient in copper (0.4 μg/g diet) or one containing adequate copper (6.0 μg/g diet) for 4 weeks. Copper deficiency induced a 2-fold increase in lipid peroxidation in the heart (thiobarbituric assay) but did not alter peroxidation in the liver. The antioxidant enzymatic activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase were, respectively, 3-, 50- and 1.5-fold lower in the heart than in the liver, although these enzymatic activities were depressed in both organs by copper deficiency. In addition, the activity of glutathione reductase was 4 times lower in the heart than in the liver. The data suggest that a weak antioxidant defense system in the heart is responsible for the relatively high degree of oxidative damage in copper-deficient hearts. 相似文献

Summary A study of the physiological role of oxygen free radicals in relation to the ageing process was performed using the liver ofRana perezi, an animal with a moderate rate of oxygen consumption and a life span substantially longer than that of laboratory rodents.Among the five different antioxidant enzymes only superoxide dismutase (SOD) showed an age-dependent decrease. Cytochrome oxidase (COX), glutathione status, in vivo and in vitro liver peroxidation, and metabolic rate did not vary as a function of age.Long-term (2.5 months) treatment with aminotriazole and diethyldithiocarbamate depleted catalase (CAT) activity and did not change both glutathione peroxidases (GPx), COX, reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) glutathione, or metabolic rate. This treatment resulted in great compensatory increases in SOD (to 250–460% of controls) and glutathione reductase (GR) (to 200%) which are possibly responsible for the lack of increase of in vivo and in vitro liver peroxidation and for the absence of changes in survival rate.The comparison of these results with previous data from other species suggests the possibility that decreases in antioxidant capacity in old age are restricted to animal species with high metabolic rates. Nevertheless, ageing can still be due to the continuous presence of small concentrations of O2 radicals in the tissues throughout life in animals with either high or low metabolic rates, because radical scavenging can not be 100% effective. Compensatory homeostasis among antioxidants seems to be a general phenomenon in different species.Abbreviations

Glutathione has been implicated to function in cytoprotection against cadmium toxicity. The mechanism by which glutathione plays this role has not been well understood. Because glutathione is an important antioxidant and several studies have shown that cadmium induces oxidative stress, this study was undertaken to determine whether development of cadmium resistance is linked to enhanced antioxidant activities. A cadmium-resistant subpopulation of human lung carcinoma A549 cells, which was developed by repeatedly exposing the cells to step-wise increased cadmium concentrations, was compared to a cadmium-sensitive one. The acquired cadmium resistance resulted from neither decreased cadmium uptake nor enhanced cellular metallothionein synthesis. Glutathione content, however, was markedly elevated in the cadmium-resistant cells. In contrast, the activities of the glutathione redox cycle related enzymes, glutathione peroxidase and reductase, were unchanged. Two other antioxidant enzymes, superoxide dismutase and catalase, were also not altered. The results suggest that the development of cadmium resistance in A549 cells unlikely results from enhanced antioxidant enzyme activities, although it is associated with elevated cellular glutathione levels. In addition, measurement of the mRNA and DNA levels for γ-glutamyleysteine synthetase, the rate-limiting enzyme for glutathione biosynthesis, revealed that enhanced expression of the enzyme but not gene amplification is likely responsible for the elevation of cellular glutathione levels. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of the flavonoid silymarin, a free radical scavenger that prevents lipoperoxidation, on the pancreatic activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx) and catalase (CAT) in rats with alloxan-induced diabetes mellitus. Alloxan intoxicated rats were treated with silymarin in two manners, simultaneously (four or eight doses) or 20 days after alloxan administration for 9 weeks. Alloxan elicited a transient increase in the activity of the three enzymes, which decreased after 5 days of treatment. On its own, silymarin significantly increased the activity of these enzymes. Simultaneous treatment with alloxan and silymarin also induced an increment in the activity of the enzymes followed by a delayed decrease (four doses). However, a longer treatment with silymarin (eight doses) induced a more sustained effect. Interestingly, silymarin treatment recovered to control values for the activity of the three-antioxidant enzymes that were significantly diminished after 20 days of alloxan administration. It is suggested that the protective effect of silymarin on pancreatic damage induced by alloxan may be due to an increase in the activity of antioxidant enzymes that, in addition to the glutathione system, constitute the more important defense mechanisms against damage by free radicals. 相似文献

Copper/zinc-superoxide dismutase (CuZn-SOD) transgenic mice overexpress the gene for human CuZn-SOD. To assess the effects of the overexpression of CuZn-SOD on the brain scavenging systems, we have measured the activities of manganese-SOD (Mn-SOD), catalase, and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in various regions of the mouse brain. In nontransgenic mice, cytosolic CuZn-SOD activity was highest in the caudate-putamen complex; this was followed by the brainstem and the hippocampus. The lowest activity was observed in the cerebellum. In transgenic mice, there were significant increases of cytosolic CuZn-SOD activity in all of these regions, with ratios varying from a twofold increase in the brainstem to 3.42-fold in the cerebellum in comparison with nontransgenic mice. Particulate Mn-SOD was similarly distributed in all brain regions, and its levels also were significantly increased in superoxide dismutase (SOD)-transgenic mice. In the brains of nontransgenic mice, cytosolic catalase activity was similar in all brain regions except the cortex, which showed less than 50% of the activity observed in the other regions. In transgenic mice, cytosolic catalase activity was significantly increased, with the cortex showing the greatest changes (133%) in comparison with nontransgenic mice. The smallest increases were observed in the hippocampus (34%). In contrast to what was observed for SOD and catalase, there were no significant changes in cytosolic GSH-Px activity in any of the brain regions examined. The present results indicate that, in addition to displaying marked increases in the levels of brain CuZn-SOD activity, SOD-transgenic mice also exhibit increases in other enzymes that scavenge oxygen-based radicals.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The effects of high temperature on antioxidant enzymes were investigatedin three mulberry (Morus alba L.) cultivars (cv. K-2, MR-2and BC2-59). High temperature was imposed by maintaining the plants at 40°Cfor 120, 240 and 360 min in an environmentalplant growth chamber.The activities of superoxide disumutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), guaiacolperoxidase (POD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX) and glutathione reductase (GR)wereassayed in the leaf extracts of control and high temperature-treated plants.Antioxidant enzyme activities were high in all the mulberry cultivars inresponse to high temperature treatment. However, cv. BC2-59 showedsignificantlyhigher activities of all the five antioxidant enzymes in response to hightemperature compared to those from the leaves of K-2, and MR-2 mulberrycultivars. The present study suggested that the cv. BC2-59 has an efficientantioxidant system among the three cultivars, which could prevent the oxidativedamage in the leaves caused by high temperature stress. 相似文献

Two chickpea cultivars PBG-1 and PDG-3 along with a wild species Cicer judaicum were investigated to compare the activities of their antioxidant enzymes in mature seeds and roots, as well as shoots and
cotyledons of seedlings germinated under dark and continuous illumination of 40 μmol m−2 s−1 photosynthetically active radiation (PAR). Seedling biomass of C. judaicum was lower as compared to cultivars of PBG-1 and PDG-3 both under dark and light conditions. Light reduced the biomass of
seedlings. Activities of glutathione reductase (GR) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) were higher in shoots and roots of C. judaicum compared to the cultivars PBG-1 and PDG-3. In mature seeds, the activities of GR and APX were higher in the cultivated genotypes
whereas catalase (CAT) and peroxidase were higher in C. judaicum. Under illumination, a general upregulation of CAT in both shoots and cotyledons and of GR in shoots was observed in all
the three genotypes. However, superoxide dismutase (SOD) increased in C. judaicum and APX in PBG-1 and PDG-3. The differences in antioxidant enzyme system between wild and cultivated genotypes possibly contribute
to better tolerance of wild Cicer species against abiotic and biotic stresses. 相似文献

Recently, eutrophication has induced severe cyanobacterial blooms in the Naktong River, the second largest river of Korea. In the present study, lipid peroxidation and the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, were evaluated in the liver of loach (Misgurnus mizolepis) that were orally exposed to a low dose of Microcystis through dietary supplementation with bloom scum. Loach received 75 mg of dry cells/kg body weight mass (equal to 10 microg microcystin-RR/kg body mass), for 28 days under controlled conditions. Antioxidant enzymatic activity and lipid peroxidation were measured after termination of exposure. The activities of antioxidant enzyme were significantly increased in the livers of toxin-exposed loach after 28 days of exposure, as compared to control fish. However, lipid peroxidation remained stable in both groups. These results suggest that antioxidant enzymes were able to eliminate oxidative stress induced by low concentrations of microcystins and to prevent increased lipid peroxidation in the liver of loach. 相似文献

Oxidative influence on development and differentiation: An overview of a free radical theory of development 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
Metabolic gradients exist in developing organisms and are believed to influence development. It has been postulated that the effects of these gradients on development result from differential oxygen supplies to tissues. Oxygen has been found to influence the course of development. Cells and tissues in various stages of differentiation exhibit discrete changes in their antioxidant defenses and in parameters of oxidation. Metabolically generated oxidants have been implicated as one factor that directs the initiation of certain developmental events. Also implicated as factors that modulate developmental processes are the cellular distribution of ions and the cytoskeleton both of which can be influenced by oxidants. The interaction of oxidants with ion balance and cytoskeleton is discussed. 相似文献

Effect of transition metals on stress, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzyme activities in tobacco cell cultures 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
to-baccoBright Yellow 2 (BY-2) suspension culture to understand the mechanisms of metal resistance in plant cells.We have analysed superoxide dismutase, catalase, and ascorbate peroxidase enzyme activities and superoxidedismutase-isoforms by isoelectric focusing gels in tobacco cells grown at two different toxic concentrations ofeach of the transition metals: copper, iron, manganese and zinc. Exposure of tobacco cells to these metals causedchanges in total superoxide dismutase activity in a different manner, depending on the metal assayed: after cop-perand manganese treatments, total superoxide dismutase activity was enhanced, while it was reduced after ironand zinc exposure. Superoxide dismutase-isoforms were affected by the metal used, and a Fe-SOD band with thesame isoelectric point as a Cu, Zn-SOD from non-treated cells, was induced after iron and zinc treatments. Cu,Zn-SODs were present in all metal-treatments whereas Mn-SOD was not detected in any case. Concerning otherantioxidant enzymes tested, such as catalase and ascorbate peroxidase, the latter showed a remarkable increase inactivity in response to copper treatments and catalase activity was enhanced after iron and with the lowest man-ganeseconcentration. Lipid peroxidation was increased after each metal treatment, as an indication of the oxi-dativedamage caused by metal concentration assayed in tobacco cells. These results suggest that an activation ofsome antioxidant enzymes in response to oxidative stress induced by transition metals is not enough to confertolerance to metal accumulation. 相似文献

In retinitis pigmentosa (RP), various mutations cause rod photoreceptor cell death leading to increased oxygen levels in the outer retina, progressive oxidative damage to cones, and gradual loss of cone cell function. We have been exploring the potential of overexpressing components of the endogenous antioxidant defense system to preserve cone cell function in rd10+/+ mice, a model of RP. rd10+/+ mice deficient in superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) showed increased levels of superoxide radicals and carbonyl adducts (a marker of oxidative damage) in the retina and more rapid loss of cone function than rd10+/+ mice with normal levels of SOD1. This suggests that SOD1 is an important component of the antioxidant defense system of cones, but increased expression of SOD1 in rd10+/+ mice increased oxidative damage and accelerated the loss of cone function. Coexpression of SOD1 with glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4), which like SOD1 is localized in the cytoplasm, but not with catalase targeted to the mitochondria, reduced oxidative damage in the retina and significantly slowed the loss of cone cell function in rd10+/+ mice. Gene transfer resulting in increased expression of SOD2, but not coexpression of SOD2 and mitochondrial Gpx4, resulted in high levels of H2O2 in the retina. These data suggest that to provide benefit in RP, overexpression of an SOD must be combined with expression of a peroxide-detoxifying enzyme in the same cellular compartment. 相似文献

Basal antioxidant defense levels are often aberrant in tumor cells; however, less attention has been given to differences in the way that normal and transformed cells respond to changes in oxidative stress. This study evaluated differences in the responses of various normal and transformed cell lines to different oxygen tensions. Exposure to hyperoxia generally failed to induce either the activity of GSH peroxidase (GPx) or the manganese-containing form of superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) after 48 h, although at 605 mm Hg oxygen, small inductions of MnSOD activity were observed in adult lung fibroblasts and amelanotic melanoma. Exposure to 605 mm Hg O2 for 48 h was inhibitory to GPx activity. MnSOD activity was strongly induced in virally transformed WI-38 cells by treatment with the herbicide paraquat or inhibition of GSH synthesis with BSO. In normal cells GSH concentration was proportional to ambient oxygen tension. Tumor cells exhibited greater GSH concentrations at low oxygen tensions than normal cells but were unable to increase GSH in response to elevation of oxygen tension. These results reveal differences in tumor and normal cell responses to changes in ambient oxygen tension and show that MnSOD activity is inducible when an appropriate stimulus is applied. 相似文献

Indole acetic acid (IAA) is an auxin and can be synthesized in animals. This compound is metabolized in vitro by peroxidase, producing reactive oxygen species. The toxic effect of indole acetic acid in leukocytes is associated with peroxidase activities and these processes have been implicated in activation of glucose and glutamine metabolism. However, studies in vitro have shown that IAA, in absence of peroxidase, is an antioxidant almost as high in potency as those of other indolic compounds. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible involvement of a toxic effect of indole acetic acid in the liver, as evidenced by oxidative stress and enzyme activities of the glucose pathway. The animals received IAA by subcutaneous or gavage administration in a phosphate buffered saline (the control group received only the phosphate buffered saline). The other groups received IAA at concentrations of 1 mg, 18 mg and 40 mg per kg of body mass per day. Treatments with 18 mg and 40 mg IAA decreased the activity of catalase by both subcutaneous (30% and 26%) or gavage administration (19% and 28%), respectively. A similar effect was observed on the activity of glutathione peroxidase of animals exposed to 18 mg and 40 mg IAA: A decrease of 34% and 29%, respectively, for subcutaneous administration and a decrease of 29% and 25%, respectively, for gavage administration. However, in neither source of administration did the acid alter superoxide dismutase, glutathione reductase and myeloperoxidase activities. Another alteration was observed in respect of reduced glutathione content in this organ. The lipid peroxidation level showed a significant decrease with subcutaneous (30%, 29% and 24%) and gavage administration (25%, 26% and 24%) using 1 mg, 18 mg and 40 mg of IAA, respectively compared with the control. The reduced glutathione content and catalase activity in the plasma were not altered by either of the two methods of administration. In addition to these findings, after subcutaneous or gavage administration of IAA, the activities of hepatic enzymes of glucose metabolism were not affected (glucokinase, lactate dehydrogenase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and citrate synthase). Evidence is presented herein that IAA did not have a pro-oxidant effect in the liver as deduced from a reduction of catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities, a decrease of lipid peroxidation content and no alteration of the pool of reduced glutathione. The effects of IAA were independent of the way of administration. 相似文献

AbstractObjectivesThe objective of this study was to investigate the effects of catechin and epicatechin on the activity of the endogenous antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) (as well as the total antioxidant capacity (TAC)) of rats after intra-peritoneal (i.p.) administration.MethodsTwenty-four Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups: the experimental group which was administered daily with a 1:1 mixture of epicatechin and catechin at a concentration of 23 mg/kg body weight for 10 days and the control group which was injected daily with an equal amount of saline. Blood and urine samples were collected before and after the administration period, as well as 10 days after (follow-up).ResultsIntra-peritoneal administration of catechins led to a potent decrease in GPx levels and a significant increase in SOD levels. TAC was significantly increased in plasma and urine. Malonaldehyde levels in urine remained stable. In the animals treated with catechins, SOD activity showed a moderate negative correlation with GPx activity.DiscussionBoosting the activity of the antioxidant enzymes could be a potential adjuvant approach for the treatment of the oxidative stress-related diseases. 相似文献

Nitric oxide (*NO) and its by-products modulate many physiological functions of skeletal muscle including blood flow, metabolism, glucose uptake, and contractile function. However, growing evidence suggests that an overproduction of nitric oxide contributes to muscle wasting in a number of pathologies including chronic heart failure, sepsis, COPD, muscular dystrophy, and extreme disuse. Limited data point to the potential of inhibition various enzymes by reactive nitrogen species (RNS), including (.)NO and its downstream products such as peroxynitrite, primarily in purified systems. We hypothesized that exposure of skeletal muscle to RNS donors would reduce or downregulate activities of the crucial antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPX). Diaphragm muscle fiber bundles were extracted from 4-month-old Fischer-344 rats and, in a series of experiments, exposed to either (a) 0 (control), 1, or 5 mM diethylamine NONOate (DEANO: *NO donor); (b) 0, 100, 500 microM, or 1 mM sodium nitroprusside (SNP: *NO donor); (c) 0 or 2 mM S-nitroso-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP: *NO donor); or (d) 0 or 500 microM SIN-1 (peroxynitrite donor) for 60 min. DEANO resulted in a 50% reduction in CAT, GPX, and a dose-dependent inhibition of Cu, Zn-SOD. SNP resulted in significantly lower activities for total SOD, Mn-SOD isoform, Cu, Zn-SOD isoform, CAT, and GPX in a dose-dependent fashion. Two millimolar SNAP and 500 microM SIN-1 also resulted in a large and significant inhibition of total SOD and CAT. These data indicate that reactive nitrogen species impair antioxidant enzyme function in an RNS donor-specific and dose-dependent manner and are consistent with the hypothesis that excess RNS production contributes to skeletal muscle oxidative stress and muscle dysfunction. 相似文献

The activities of peroxide-detoxifying enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, and catalase were measured in the nervous system of neurological dysmyelinating mutants: quaking (Qk), shiverer (Shi), and trembler (Tr) mice. Cu/Zn-SOD activity was higher in the cerebellum of Qk and Shi mice (by 53% and 106%, respectively) in comparison with controls, but it was the same in the cerebellum of Tr mice and their corresponding controls. In contrast, there was no difference in the level of Cu/Zn-SOD activity in the cerebrum of Qk, Shi, and Tr mice and their respective controls. Mn-SOD activity was the same among all the mutants compared to control animals in both cerebrum and cerebellum. In Shi cerebellum, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase activities were slightly decreased (a 21.6% and a 13.2% diminution, respectively), whereas catalase activity in cerebrum and cerebellum was the same among mutants and control mice. In the sciatic nerve from Tr mice, all the enzymatic activities were enhanced: sixfold increase for total SOD, and 2.4-fold, 3.5-fold, and 1.8-fold increase for glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, and catalase, respectively. 相似文献

Enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant profiles of the gastric and duodenal mucosa of rat, rabbit, cat and pig were investigated and found to exhibit significant variations. Rat gastric and duodenal mucosa exhibited the highest levels of basal glutathione of the various tissues examined. The highest activity of glutathione reductase was found in the gastric and duodenal mucosa of rat as compared with that in these tissues from the other species. The gastric mucosa of cat and pig showed similar activities of glutathione peroxidase, which was significantly lower than those in rat or rabbit gastric mucosa. The activity of this antioxidant enzyme was similar in rat, rabbit and pig duodenal mucosa and lower than that in cat duodenal mucosa. Strong correlations were found between activities of the functionally coupled antioxidant enzymes glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase in gastric but not in duodenal mucosa. The activity of superoxide dismutase showed negligible regional or species-related variations in activity. 相似文献
