Adaptation to continuous hypoxia under mid-mountain conditions (altitude 2100 m) decreases the content of lipid peroxidation products and the activity of superoxide dismutase and catalase in rat heart, liver, and brain, with a concomitant decline in the resistance to reperfusion arrhythmias. On the contrary, adaptation to intermittent hypoxia in the altitude chamber increases the activity of the antioxidant enzymes in the same organs, while the content of peroxidation products remains normal; at the same time, the heart becomes more resistant to reperfusion arrhythmias. The mechanism is discussed that ensures enhanced antioxidant protection in adaptation to intermittent hypoxia.  相似文献

The activities of catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione reductase, were not significantly different from normal whereas that of superoxide dismutase was decreased (P<0.05) in erythrocytes from patients with multiple sclerosis. Assay of the lipid peroxidation product, malondialdehyde, after incubation of erythrocytes with 10 mM H2O2 under carefully controlled conditions (peroxide stress test) demonstrated that MS erythrocytes are significantly (P<0.001) less susceptible to H2O2-induced lipid peroxidation in vitro. This finding suggests that the level of an endogenous antioxidant, possibly vitamin E, may be elevated in MS red cells. After treatment with hyperbaric O2, the activity of MS erythrocyte catalase is significantly (P<0.01) elevated by 2–6-fold.  相似文献

Cultured fetal rat lung fibroblasts are growth-inhibited and have increased lactate dehydrogenase release and prostaglandin synthesis in response to 50% and 95% oxygen exposure. Extended exposure to 50% oxygen, but not to 95% oxygen, was associated with tolerance to the cytotoxic effects of oxygen. Pretreatment of fibroblasts with liposome-encapsulated superoxide dismutase and catalase also conferred protection against the cytotoxic effects of 50% and 95% oxygen. Exogenous enhancement of intracellular superoxide dismutase and catalase specific activities did not attenuate the growth inhibition or increased prostaglandin synthesis associated with exposure to 50% or 95% oxygen. The growth inhibition could not be attributed to an autocrine prostaglandin effect, since inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis with 50 microM ibuprofen did not prevent O2-mediated inhibition of DNA synthesis.  相似文献

Vitamin E and selenium play essential roles in preventing in vivo lipid peroxidation and free radical damage. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment adversely affected the electroretinograms (ERGs) of rats fed a diet deficient in both vitamin E and selenium (the basal or B diet) or a diet deficient in vitamin E alone (B + Se diet). After 4 weeks of HBO treatment (3.0 ATA or 100% oxygen, 1.5 hours per day, 5 day/week) rats fed the B diet deficient in vitamin E and selenium for 6 weeks showed decreased (p less than 0.05) a-wave amplitudes, 85 +/- 9 microvolts (microV), n = 11, compared with a-waves recorded (150 +/- 10 microV, n = 21) for age matched rats fed an identical diet for 6 weeks but not treated with HBO. After 15 weeks of HBO treatment, rats fed the B + Se diet deficient in vitamin E alone showed decreased (p less than 0.01) a-wave (61 +/- 9 microV, n = 4) and b-wave (253 +/- 23 microV, n = 4) amplitudes compared with a-wave (115 +/- 7 microV, n = 4) and b-wave amplitudes (450 +/- 35 microV, n = 4) for age matched rats fed the same diet but not treated with HBO. Decreased a- or b-wave amplitudes provide evidence of retinal damage. Rats fed a diet supplemented with vitamin E and selenium or vitamin E alone showed no decreases in either a- or b-wave amplitudes after 15 weeks of HBO treatment.  相似文献

The effects of NaCl on the H2O2 content and the activities of catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were studied in diverse group of plants, such as a unicellular alga, Chlorella sp., an aquatic macrophyte, Najas graminea, and a mangrove plant, Suaeda maritima, all showing high tolerance to NaCl. Significant accumulation of H2O2 was observed in all the tested plants upon their exposure to 255 mM NaCl. The activity of both CAT and SOD increased significantly in response to the NaCl treatment. Growing the plants in presence of 255 mM NaCl also resulted in the synthesis of new isoforms of both CAT and SOD.  相似文献

Numerous reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive carbonyl species (RCS) issuing from lipid and sugar oxidation are known to damage a large number of proteins leading to enzyme inhibition and alteration of cellular functions. Whereas studies in literature only focus on the reactivity of one or two of these compounds, we aimed at comparing in the same conditions of incubations (4 and 24 h at 37 °C) the effects of both various RCS (4-hydroxynonenal, 4-hydroxyhexenal, acrolein, methylglyoxal, glyoxal, malondialdehyde) and ROS (H2O2, AAPH) on the activity of key enzymes involved in cellular oxidative stress: superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione S-transferase (GST) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH). This was realized both in vitro on purified proteins and MIAPaCa-2 cells. Incubation of these enzymes with RCS resulted in a significant time- and concentration-dependent inhibition for both pure enzymes and in cell lysates. Among all RCS and ROS, hydroxynonenal (HNE) was observed as the most toxic for all studied enzymes except for SOD and is followed by hydrogen peroxide. At 100 μM, HNE resulted in a 50% reduction of GPx, 56% of GST, 65% of G6PDH, and only 10% of Cu,Zn-SOD. Meanwhile it seems that concentrations used in our study are closer to biological conditions for ROS than for RCS. H2O2 and AAPH-induced peroxyl radicals may be probably more toxic towards the studied enzymes in vivo.  相似文献

When exposed continuously to hyperoxia (100% O2, 760 Torr barometric pressure), rats pretreated with polyethylene glycol (PEG)-attached superoxide dismutase and catalase (PEG-SOD + PEG-CAT) lived longer (79.1 + 7.6 h) than rats pretreated with saline (60.7 +/- 2.1 h) or PEG-inactivated-SOD + PEG-inactivated-CAT (62.3 +/- 1.6 h). Rats pretreated with PEG-SOD + PEG-CAT also had less hyperoxia-induced acute oxidative edematous lung injury, as assessed by increases in lung oxidized glutathione (GSSG) contents, pleural effusions, and lung lavage albumin concentrations than saline-pretreated rats. Rats pretreated with the long-lived conjugates PEG-inactivated-SOD + PEG-inactivated-CAT or PEG-albumin also had decreased acute oxidative edematous lung injury compared with rats pretreated with PEG, SOD + CAT + PEG, SOD + CAT, or saline. In vitro studies suggested that PEG itself may have contributed to protection by scavenging hydroxyl radical (.OH) but not superoxide (O2-.) or H2O2. Compared with more effective endogenous (via preexposure to hypoxia) or exogenous (via liposomes) means for increasing lung antioxidant enzymes, PEG enzymes are less protective against lung injury from continuous hyperoxia.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of intermittent and continuous static exercise on muscle perfusion, perfusion heterogeneity, and oxygen extraction. Perfusion and oxygen uptake of quadriceps femoris muscle were measured in 10 healthy men by using positron emission tomography and [(15)O]H(2)O and [(15)O]O(2) first during intermittent static exercise [10% of maximal static force (MSF)] and thereafter during continuous static exercise at the same tension-time level (5% static; 5% of MSF). In 4 of these subjects, perfusion was measured during continuous static exercise with 10% of MSF (10% continuous) instead of the second [(15)O]O(2) measurement. Muscle oxygen consumption was similar during intermittent and 5% continuous, but muscle perfusion was significantly higher during 5% continuous. Consequently, muscle oxygen extraction fraction was lower during 5% continuous. Perfusion was also more heterogeneous during 5% continuous. When exercise intensity was doubled during continuous static exercise (from 5% continuous to 10% continuous), muscle perfusion increased markedly. These results suggest that continuous, low-intensity static exercise decreases muscle oxygen extraction and increases muscle perfusion and its heterogeneity compared with intermittent static exercise at the same relative exercise intensity.  相似文献

Two major lines of defense exist against oxidant lung injury: tissue antioxidants and antioxidant enzymes. We studied pretreatment with the antioxidants, vitamin E and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), and the antioxidant enzymes, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase, in rabbits exposed to 100% O2 for 48 h. BHA (200 mg/kg ip) or vitamin E (50-100 mg/kg po) were given for 2 or 3 days, respectively, before O2 exposure. Combined therapy with polyethylene glycol- (PEG) conjugated SOD (12 mg/kg) and catalase (200,000 U/kg) was given intraperitoneally 1 h before and 24 h after beginning 100% O2. Hyperoxia significantly increased the pulmonary content of malondialdehyde, indicating enhanced lipid peroxidation. One hundred percent O2 also increased lung weight gain and alveolar-capillary permeability to aerosolized 99mTc-labeled diethylenetriaminepentaacetate (99mTc-DTPA, 500 mol wt) and fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled dextran (7,000 mol wt). Pretreatment with vitamin E, BHA, or the combination of PEG-SOD and PEG-catalase prevented the increase in malondialdehyde, lung weight gain, and alveolar-capillary permeability caused by hyperoxia. These results indicate that augmenting either tissue antioxidants or antioxidant enzymes can prevent the pulmonary injury caused by 48 h of 100% O2 in rabbits.  相似文献

Genotoxicity of hyperbaric oxygen   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment is applied as a therapy for a wide variety of diseases with symptoms caused by lack of oxygen in the target tissues. However, it is known that exposure to high concentrations of oxygen may lead to oxidative stress and cause cell and tissue damage. Oxygen toxicity and possible cancer-promoting effects of HBO therapy have been a matter of serious concern. Although a cancer-inducing effect of HBO was not found to date, recent studies clearly indicated an induction of oxidative DNA damage in blood cells of healthy subjects after HBO under therapeutic conditions. The biological significance of this finding has been investigated in a series of in vitro and in vivo tests. This review summarizes these studies and critically discusses potential adverse genetic effects of HBO therapy. Furthermore, since an induction of anti-oxidative defense mechanisms has been determined after HBO exposure, a modified treatment regimen of HBO therapy is proposed which avoids genotoxic effects.  相似文献

We studied the level of lipid peroxidation and the activity of antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase and catalase) in various tissues of adult Xenopus laevis after an initial exposure to hyperbaric oxygenation at the developmental stage 38. We have found that irrespective to the mode of treatment, the level of lipid peroxidation and activity of antioxidant enzymes in the brain, lungs, and blood of these animals were higher as compared to control animals. We demonstrate that, after the exposure of adult animals to hyperoxia, if they were earlier subjected to hyperbaric oxygenation (0.2 MPa) at stage 38, there was no intensification of lipid peroxidation or changes in the activity of superoxide dismutase and catalase. In adult animals initially subjected to hyperbaric oxygenation at the same stage of development but at the pressure--0.7 MPa, the second exposure to hyperoxia led to a drastic intensification of lipid peroxidation in the brain; in some animals, an increased level of lipid peroxidation products in the lungs was observed.  相似文献

The goal of this review is to outline advances addressing the role that reactive species of oxygen and nitrogen play in therapeutic mechanisms of hyperbaric oxygen. The review will be organized around major categories of problems or processes where controlled clinical trials have demonstrated clinical efficacy for hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Reactive species are now recognized to play a major role in cell signal transduction cascades, and the discussion will focus on how hyperbaric oxygen acts through these pathways to mediate wound healing and ameliorate postischemic and inflammatory injuries.  相似文献

The effect of high oxygen pressure on neural function was studied in the isolated nervous system of the cockroach. Intracellular and extracellular action potentials were recorded from single giant axons during exposure to 7 ATA (atmosphere absolute) (1 ATA = 0.1 MPa) of oxygen. Axonal excitability was measured as changes in stimulus strength-duration relationship. Initially, a transient increase in the rheobase current was observed followed by a significant decline to 75% of air control values. This decrease was accompanied by a parallel increase in the membrane time constant. The results demonstrate that hyperbaric oxygen increases axonal excitability. Such changes are consistent with the epileptogenic properties of high oxygen pressure.  相似文献

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficiency of combination of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) and an antioxidant on permanent focal cerebral ischemia. Male Wistar rats underwent permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Then, animals were randomly assigned to one of four groups: the control group (n=9) received no treatment, HBO group (n=9) was treated for 90 min at 2.5 absolute atmosphere for 3 days, the U-74389G group (n=8) received single U-74389G injection (3 mg/kg), the HBO + U-74389G group (n=8) received both HBO and U-74389G treatments. Treatments were initiated within the first 10 min after MCAO. After 3 days, the infarct volumes in rat brains were measured. The infarct ratios were 25.6+/-6.5 % for the control group, 21.9+/-6.4 % for the HBO group, 15.7+/-5.7 % for U-74389G group and 12.5+/-3.8 % for HBO + U74389G group. The infarct volumes were significantly reduced in rats treated with U-74389G (p<0.05) and combination therapy (p<0.05). HBO failed to reduce infarct volume significantly. We concluded that 1) U-74389G is more beneficial than HBO on permanent MCAO in rats, and 2) a combined therapy failed to significantly improve infarct volume more than either single treatment.  相似文献
