Oxidative glutamate toxicity in the neuronal cell line HT22 is a model for cell death by oxidative stress. In this paradigm, an excess of extracellular glutamate blocks the glutamate/cystine-antiporter system Xc-, depleting the cell of cysteine, a building block of the antioxidant glutathione. Loss of glutathione leads to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species and eventually cell death. We selected cells resistant to oxidative stress, which exhibit reduced glutamate-induced glutathione depletion mediated by an increase in the antiporter subunit xCT and system Xc- activity. Cystine uptake was less sensitive to inhibition by glutamate and we hypothesized that glutamate import via excitatory amino acid transporters and immediate re-export via system Xc- underlies this phenomenon. Inhibition of glutamate transporters by l-trans-pyrrolidine-2,4-dicarboxylic acid (PDC) and DL-threo-beta-benzyloxyaspartic acid (TBOA) exacerbated glutamate-induced cell death. PDC decreased intracellular glutamate accumulation and exacerbated glutathione depletion in the presence of glutamate. Transient overexpression of xCT and the glutamate transporter EAAT3 cooperatively protected against glutamate. We conclude that EAATs support system Xc- to prevent glutathione depletion caused by high extracellular glutamate. This knowledge could be of use for the development of novel therapeutics aimed at diseases associated with depletion of glutathione like Parkinson's disease. 相似文献

Activation of stimulatory heterotrimeric G proteins increases glutathione and protects neuronal cells against oxidative stress 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Oxidative glutamate toxicity in the neuronal cell line HT22 is a model for cell death by oxidative stress, where an excess of extracellular glutamate inhibits import of cystine, a building block of the antioxidant glutathione. The subsequent decrease in glutathione then leads to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and programmed cell death. We used pharmacological compounds known to interact with heterotrimeric G-protein signalling and studied their effects on cell survival, morphology, and intracellular events that ultimately lead to cell death. Cholera toxin and phorbol esters were most effective and prevented cell death through independent pathways. Treating HT22 cells with cholera toxin attenuated the glutamate-induced accumulation of ROS and calcium influx. This was, at least in part, caused by an increase in glutathione due to improved uptake of cystine mediated by the induction of the glutamate/cystine-antiporter subunit xCT or, additionally, by the up-regulation of the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2. Gs activation also protected HT22 cells from hydrogen peroxide or inhibition of glutathione synthesis by buthionine sulfoximine, and immature cortical neurones from oxidative glutamate toxicity. Thus, this pathway might be more generally implicated in protection from neuronal death by oxidative stress. 相似文献

Oxidative stress has been shown to underlie a diverse range of neuropathological conditions. Glutamate-induced oxidative toxicity is a well described model of oxidative stress-induced neurodegeneration that relies upon the ability of extracellular glutamate to inhibit a glutamate/cystine antiporter, which results in a depletion of intracellular cysteine and the blockade of continued glutathione synthesis. Glutathione depletion leads to a gradual toxic accumulation of reactive oxygen species. We have previously determined that glutamate-induced oxidative toxicity is accompanied by a robust increase in activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) member extracellular-signal regulated kinase (ERK) and that this activation is essential for neuronal cell death. This study demonstrates that delayed ERK activation is dependent upon the activity of phosphoinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) and that transient but not sustained PI3K inhibition leads to significant protection of neurons from oxidative stress-induced neurodegeneration. Furthermore, we show that transient PI3K inhibition prevents the delayed activation of MEK-1, a direct activator of ERK, during oxidative stress. Thus, this study is the first to demonstrate a novel level of cross-talk between the PI3K and ERK pathways in cultured immature cortical neuronal cultures that contributes to the unfolding of a cell death program. The PI3K pathway, therefore, may serve opposing roles during the progression of oxidative stress in neurons, acting at distinct kinetic phases to either promote or limit a slowly developing program of cell death. 相似文献

Neurotoxicity in acute as well as chronic neurological diseases may be partly mediated by oxidative stress caused by overactivation of glutamate receptors. A key component of the cellular defense against oxidative stress is reduced glutathione. In our earlier work, we have shown that ischemia in brain induces increased efflux, elevated metabolism, and decreased tissue concentrations of glutathione. In this study, we have evaluated the effect of glutamate receptor activation on the efflux of glutathione from hippocampus in vitro. NMDA and kainate induced a delayed increase in glutathione, taurine, and phosphoethanolamine efflux. Extracellular glutathione was recovered mainly in the reduced form (85-95%); the efflux was dependent on extracellular calcium but unrelated to dantrolene-sensitive intracellular calcium release and independent of glutathione or NO synthesis. The NMDA-induced efflux of glutathione was enhanced by blockage of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, indicating an increased transpeptidation of glutathione after NMDA receptor activation. Our results suggest that increased efflux of glutathione could be a factor in initiating nerve cell death via a change in intracellular redox potential and/or a decrease in the intracellular capacity for inactivation of reactive oxygen species. 相似文献

Geldanamycin Provides Posttreatment Protection Against Glutamate-Induced
Oxidative Toxicity in a Mouse Hippocampal Cell Line 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1

Abstract : The benzoquinoid ansamycin geldanamycin interferes with many cell signaling pathways and is currently being evaluated as an anticancer agent. The main intracellular target of geldanamycin is the 90-kDa heat shock protein, hsp90. In this report we demonstrate that geldanamycin is effective at preventing glutamate-induced oxidative toxicity in the HT22 mouse hippocampal cell line, even if given 4 h after glutamate treatment. Geldanamycin prevents glutamate-induced internucleosomal DNA cleavage in the HT22 cells but does not reverse the depletion of glutathione levels brought about by glutamate treatment. Both anabolic and catabolic effects are generated by geldanamycin treatment of HT22 cells, as evidenced by the induction of hsp70 expression and degradation of c-Raf-1 protein, respectively. Thus, geldanamycin may provide an effective strategy for manipulating signaling pathways in neuronal cells that use hsp90 as they proceed through a programmed cell death pathway in response to oxidative stress. 相似文献

Oxidative stress is implicated in several pathologies such as AIDS, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease, as well as in normal aging. As a model system to study the response of cells to oxidative insults, glutamate toxicity on a mouse nerve cell line, HT-22, was examined. Glutamate exposure kills HT-22 via a nonreceptor-mediated oxidative pathway by blocking cystine uptake and causing depletion of intracellular glutathione (GSH), leading to the accumulation of reactive oxygen species and, ultimately, apoptotic cell death. Several HT-22 subclones that are 10-fold resistant to exogenous glutamate were isolated and the mechanisms involved in resistance characterized. The expression levels of neither heat shock proteins nor apoptosis-related proteins are changed in the resistant cells. In contrast, the antioxidant enzyme catalase, but not glutathione peroxidase nor superoxide dismutase, is more highly expressed in the resistant than in the parental cells. In addition, the resistant cells have enhanced rates of GSH regeneration due to higher activities of the GSH metabolic enzymes γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase and GSH reductase, and GSH S-transferases activities are also elevated. As a consequence of these alterations, the glutamate resistant cells are also more resistant to organic hydroperoxides and anticancer drugs that affect these GSH enzymes. These results indicate that resistance to apoptotic oxidative stress may be acquired by coordinated changes in multiple antioxidant pathways. 相似文献

Glutamate-induced oxidative toxicity is mediated by glutathione depletion in the HT22 mouse hippocampal cell line. Previous results with pharmacological agents implicated the extracellular signal-regulated kinases-1/2 (ERK1/2) in glutamate toxicity in HT22 cells and immature embryonic rat cortical neurons. In this report, we definitively establish a role for ERK1/2 in oxidative toxicity using dominant negative MEK1 expression in transiently transfected HT22 cells to block glutamate-induced cell death. In contrast, chronic activation of ERK (i.e. brought about by transfection of constitutively active ERK2 chimera) is not sufficient to trigger HT22 cell death demonstrating that ERK1/2 activation is not sufficient for toxicity. Activation of ERK1/2 in HT22 cells has a distinct kinetic profile with an initial peak occurring between 30 min and 1 h of glutamate treatment and a second peak typically emerging after 6 h. We demonstrate here that the initial phase of ERK1/2 induction is because of activation of metabotropic glutamate receptor type I (mGluRI). ERK1/2 activation by mGluRI contributes to an HT22 cell adaptive response to oxidative stress as glutamate-induced toxicity is enhanced upon pharmacological inhibition of mGluRI. The protective effect of ERK1/2 activation at early times after glutamate treatment is mediated by a restoration of glutathione (GSH) levels that are reduced because of depletion of intracellular cysteine pools. Thus, ERK1/2 appears to play dual roles in HT22 cells acting as part of a cellular adaptive response during the initial phases of glutamate-induced oxidative stress and contributing to toxicity during later stages of stress. 相似文献

The role of Bax in glutamate-induced nerve cell death 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The role of the Bax gene product was examined in three forms of cortical nerve cell death in primary cultures. These include spontaneous cell death, oxidative glutamate toxicity, in which exogenous glutamate inhibits cystine uptake resulting in toxic oxidative stress, and ionotropic glutamate receptor-mediated excitotoxicity following a brief exposure to 10 microM glutamate. Primary cortical and hippocampal neuron cultures were established from embryos of Bax -/+ x Bax -/+ matings and the embryos genotyped and assayed for cell death in the three experimental paradigms. Cell death induced by oxidative glutamate toxicity and glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity was not altered in the Bax -/- homozygous knockout animals. In contrast, there was an approximately 50% inhibition of spontaneous cell death. These results suggest that a classical Bax-dependent apoptotic pathway contributes to the spontaneous cell death that takes place when nerve cells are initially exposed to cell culture conditions. A Bax-dependent programmed cell death pathway is not, however, utilized in oxidative glutamate toxicity and NMDA receptor-mediated excitotoxicity following a brief exposure to low concentrations of glutamate. 相似文献

Adenosine and its derivatives may induce acute changes, i.e., injury and death, in muscle cells. In the present work, we evaluated the intracellular calcium concentration in C2C12 myogenic cells differentiated in vitro to form myotubes and exposed to a metabolically stable analogue of adenosine, 2-chloro-adenosine. The compound was able to significantly modify ionic homeostasis by sensitizing muscle cells to the excitatory amino acid glutamate. A single exposure to glutamate led to a marked increase in intracellular calcium level. This is the first demonstration that adenosine analogues can regulate muscle cell integrity and function via an indirect increase of intracellular calcium ions. 相似文献

Two clonal nerve-like cell lines derived from HT22 and PC12 have been selected for resistance to glutamate toxicity and amyloid toxicity, respectively. In the following experiments it was asked if these cell lines show cross-resistance toward amyloid beta peptide (Abeta) and glutamate as well as toward a variety of additional neurotoxins. Conversely, it was determined if inhibitors of oxytosis, a well-defined oxidative stress pathway, also protect cells from the neurotoxins. It is shown that both glutamate and amyloid resistant cells are cross resistant to most of the other toxins or toxic conditions, while inhibitors of oxytosis protect from glutathione and cystine depletion and H2O2 toxicity, but not from the toxic effects of nitric oxide, rotenone, arsenite or cisplatin. It is concluded that while there is a great deal of cross-resistance to neurotoxins, the components of the cell death pathway which has been defined for oxytosis are not used by many of the neurotoxins. 相似文献

Peripheral autonomic neurones release nitric oxide (NO) upon nerve activation. However, the regulation of neuronal NO formation is poorly understood. We used the cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) analogue 8-Br-cGMP, the soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) stimulator YC-1, the phosphodiesterase inhibitor zaprinast and the sGC inhibitor ODQ to study whether the sGC/cGMP pathway is involved in regulation of neuronal NO release in nerve plexus-containing smooth muscle preparations from guinea pig colon. Electrical stimulation of the preparation evoked release of NO/NO(-)(2). In the presence of 8-Br-cGMP, YC-1 and zaprinast (all at 10(-4) M) the NO/NO(-)(2)-release increased to 152 +/- 16% (P < 0.05), 164 +/- 37% (P < 0.05) and 290 +/- 67% (P < 0.05) of controls, respectively. Conversely, ODQ (10(-5) M) decreased the evoked release of NO/NO(-)(2) to 49 +/- 7% (P < 0.05) of controls. Our data suggest that the sGC/cGMP pathway modulates NO release. Thus it is likely that NO exerts a positive feedback on its own release from peripheral autonomic neurones. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are thought to be involved in many forms of programmed cell death. The role of ROS in cell death caused by oxidative glutamate toxicity was studied in an immortalized mouse hippocampal cell line (HT22). The causal relationship between ROS production and glutathione (GSH) levels, gene expression, caspase activity, and cytosolic Ca2+ concentration was examined. An initial 5–10-fold increase in ROS after glutamate addition is temporally correlated with GSH depletion. This early increase is followed by an explosive burst of ROS production to 200–400-fold above control values. The source of this burst is the mitochondrial electron transport chain, while only 5–10% of the maximum ROS production is caused by GSH depletion. Macromolecular synthesis inhibitors as well as Ac-YVAD-cmk, an interleukin 1β–converting enzyme protease inhibitor, block the late burst of ROS production and protect HT22 cells from glutamate toxicity when added early in the death program. Inhibition of intracellular Ca2+ cycling and the influx of extracellular Ca2+ also blocks maximum ROS production and protects the cells. The conclusion is that GSH depletion is not sufficient to cause the maximal mitochondrial ROS production, and that there is an early requirement for protease activation, changes in gene expression, and a late requirement for Ca2+ mobilization. 相似文献

Macrophage death is a hallmark of advanced atherosclerotic plaque, and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (OxLDL) found in these lesions is believed to contribute to macrophage injury. However, the underlying mechanisms of this phenomenon are only poorly understood. Here we show that in human monocyte-derived macrophages, OxLDL depleted intracellular glutathione (GSH) and inhibited glutathione reductase, resulting in a marked diminution of the glutathione/glutathione disulfide ratio. In the absence of OxLDL, an 80% depletion of intracellular GSH levels did not affect cell viability, but glutathione depletion dramatically increased OxLDL-induced cell death. Conversely, supplementation of intracellular GSH stores with glutathione diethyl ester substantially diminished OxLDL toxicity. OxLDL also promoted protein-S-glutathionylation, which was increased in macrophages pretreated with the glutathione reductase inhibitor BCNU. Knockdown experiments with siRNA directed against glutathione reductase and glutaredoxin showed that both enzymes are essential for the protection of macrophages against OxLDL. Finally, the peroxyl-radical scavenger Trolox did not prevent GSH depletion but completely blocked OxLDL-induced protein-S-glutathionylation and cell death. These data suggest that OxLDL promotes ROS formation and protein-S-glutathionylation by a mechanism independent from its effect on GSH depletion. Neither mechanism was sufficient to induce macrophage injury, but when stimulated concurrently, these pathways promoted the accumulation of protein-glutathione mixed disulfides and cell death. 相似文献

Oxidative stress caused by glutathione depletion after prolonged exposure to extracellular glutamate leads to a form of neuronal cell death that exhibits morphologically mixed features of both apoptosis and necrosis. However, specific downstream executioners involved in this form of cell death have yet to be identified. We report here that glutamate exposure does not activate caspase-3 in the HT22 neuronal cell line. Furthermore, no cytoprotection was achieved with either the pan-caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-fmk or the caspase-3-specific inhibitor DEVD-CHO. In contrast, inhibition of the proteasome by lactacystin protected both HT22 cells and rat primary neuronal cells against cell lysis. In parallel, oxidatively altered and ubiquitinated proteins accumulated in the mitochondrial fraction of cells after proteasome inhibition. These findings suggest that caspases can be decoupled from oxidative stress under some conditions, and implicate the ubiquitin/proteasome pathway in neuronal cell death caused by oxidative glutamate toxicity. 相似文献

It has been reported that glutamate decreased the intracellular glutathione (GSH) concentration and thereby induced cell death in C6 rat glioma cells. Polyunsaturated fatty acids such as arachidonic acid, gamma-linolenic acid, and linoleic acid enhanced lipid peroxidation promoting 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) formation under the glutamate-induced GSH-depletion. The enhancement of lipid peroxidation by polyunsaturated fatty acids was species-dependent. Some antioxidants capable of scavenging oxygen and lipid radicals and some iron or copper scavengers inhibited both the lipid peroxidation and the 8-OH-dG formation, consequently protecting against cell death induced by glutamate-induced GSH depletion. These results suggest that GSH depletion caused by glutamate induces lipid peroxidation and consequently 8-OH-dG formation and that polyunsaturated fatty acids enhance lipid peroxidation associated with mediated 8-OH-dG formation through a chain reaction. 相似文献

Oxidative stress and highly specific decreases in glutathione (GSH) are associated with nerve cell death in Parkinson's disease. Using an experimental nerve cell model for oxidative stress and an expression cloning strategy, a gene involved in oxidative stress-induced programmed cell death was identified which both mediates the cell death program and regulates GSH levels. Two stress-resistant clones were isolated which contain antisense gene fragments of the translation initiation factor (eIF)2alpha and express a low amount of eIF2alpha. Sensitivity is restored when the clones are transfected with full-length eIF2alpha; transfection of wild-type cells with the truncated eIF2alpha gene confers resistance. The phosphorylation of eIF2alpha also results in resistance to oxidative stress. In wild-type cells, oxidative stress results in rapid GSH depletion, a large increase in peroxide levels, and an influx of Ca(2+). In contrast, the resistant clones maintain high GSH levels and show no elevation in peroxides or Ca(2+) when stressed, and the GSH synthetic enzyme gamma-glutamyl cysteine synthetase (gammaGCS) is elevated. The change in gammaGCS is regulated by a translational mechanism. Therefore, eIF2alpha is a critical regulatory factor in the response of nerve cells to oxidative stress and in the control of the major intracellular antioxidant, GSH, and may play a central role in the many neurodegenerative diseases associated with oxidative stress. 相似文献

Using cultured cerebral cortical neurons at mature stages (9 days in culture, d.i.c.) it was demonstrated that glutamate, NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) and to a lesser extent KA (kainate) increase the intracellular cGMP concentration ([cGMP]i) whereas no such effect was observed after exposure of the cells of QA (quisqualate) and AMPA (2-amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazol-4-yl)propionate). No effect of glutamate, NMDA and KA was observed in immature neurons (2 d.i.c.). The pharmacology of these cGMP responses was investigated using the glutamate antagonists APV (2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate) with selectivity for NMDA receptors, CNQX (6-cyano-7-nitro-quinoxaline-2,3-dione) with selectivity for non-NMDA receptors and the novel KA selective antagonists AMOA (2-amino-3-[3-(carboxymethoxy)-5-methylisoxazol-4-yl]propionate) and AMNH (2-amino-3-[2-(3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazol-4-yl)methyl-5-methyl-3-oxoisoxazolin-4-yl]propionate). In addition, the cytotoxicity of glutamate, NMDA and KA was studied and found to be enhanced by addition of the non-metabolizable cGMP analogue 8-Br-cGMP. On the contrary, the toxicity of QA and AMPA was not affected by 8-Br-cGMP. Pertussis toxin augmented the toxicity elicited by glutamate, NMDA, KA and QA but not that induced by AMPA. On the other hand, only glutamate and KA induced toxicity was potentiated by cholera toxin, which also enhanced the stimulatory effect of glutamate and NMDA but not that of KA on the cellular cGMP content. The toxicity as well as the effects on intracellular cGMP levels could be antagonized by the specific excitatory amino acid (EAA) antagonists. These results suggest that the mechanisms by which the various excitatory amino acids exert cytotoxicity are different, and that increased cGMP levels may participate in the mediation of glutamate, NMDA or KA induced toxicity but less likely in QA and AMPA mediated toxicity. Furthermore, G-proteins or other pertussis or cholera toxin sensitive entities seem to be involved in the cytotoxic action of all excitatory amino acids except AMPA. 相似文献
