Side effects of cytostatic treatment include development of anemia resulting from either decreased generation or accelerated clearance of circulating erythrocytes. Recent experiments revealed a novel kind of stress-induced erythrocyte death, i.e. eryptosis, which is characterized by enhanced cytosolic Ca(2+) levels, increased ceramide formation and exposure of phosphatidylserine at the cell surface. The present study explored whether cytostatic treatment with paclitaxel (Taxol) triggers eryptosis. Blood was drawn from cancer patients before and after infusion of 175 mg/m2 Taxol. The treatment significantly decreased the hematocrit and significantly increased the percentage of annexin-V-binding erythrocytes in vivo (by 37%). In vitro incubation of human erythrocytes with 10 microM paclitaxel again significantly increased annexin-V-binding (by 129%) and augmented the increase of annexin-V-binding following cellular stress. The enhanced phosphatidylserine exposure was not dependent on caspase-activity but paralleled by erythrocyte shrinkage, increase of cytosolic Ca(2+) activity, ceramide formation and activation of calpain. Phosphatidylserine exposure was similarly induced by docetaxel but not by carboplatin or doxorubicin. Moreover, eryptosis was triggered by the Ca(2+) ionophore ionomycin (10 microM). In mice, ionomycin-treated eryptotic erythrocytes were rapidly cleared from circulating blood and sequestrated into the spleen. In conclusion, our data strongly suggest that paclitaxel-induced anemia is at least partially due to induction of eryptosis. 相似文献

BackgroundAllicin (ACN), a sulfoxide in freshly crushed garlic, is known for its diverse bioactive properties. Among the most notable effects of ACN is its antitumor activity against a wide array of cancer types. Thus, ACN may be a promising anticancer therapeutic. Nevertheless, chemotherapy-induced anemia is a major obstacle in cancer management with a prevalence of up to 70%. Although the pathophysiology behind it remains elusive, a number of medications known to cause anemia in patients have been shown to induce premature programmed cell death in red blood cells (RBCs) known as eryptosis. This study, thus, investigates the anticancer potential of ACN against THP-1 monocytic leukemia cells, its toxic effects on human RBCs, and delineate the underlying biochemical mechanisms.MethodsCytotoxicity was detected using the MTT assay, while hemoglobin leakage was used as a surrogate for hemolysis which was photometrically measured. Major eryptotic events were examined using flow cytometry with fluorescent probes. Phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure was detected by Annexin-V-FITC, cytosolic calcium with Fluo4/AM, and reactive oxygen species with H2DCFDA.ResultsOur results show that ACN induces hemolysis in a dose-dependent fashion, which is significantly abrogated in absence of extracellular calcium. Moreover, ACN stimulates PS exposure, intracellular calcium overload, and oxidative stress. Using small-molecule inhibitors, we demonstrate that the pro-eryptotic activity of ACN is ameliorated in presence of zVAD(OMe)-FMK, SB203580, and D4476.ConclusionACN possesses both hemolytic and eryptotic properties mediated through elevated intracellular calcium levels, oxidative stress, caspase, p38 MAPK, and CK1α. 相似文献

The widespread use of aluminum (Al) provides easy exposure of humans to the metal and its accumulation remains a potential problem. In vivo and in vitro assays have associated Al overload with anemia. To better understand the mechanisms by which Al affects human erythrocytes, morphological and biochemical changes were analyzed after long-term treatment using an in vitro model. The appearance of erythrocytes with abnormal shapes suggested metal interaction with cell surface, supported by the fact that high amounts of Al attached to cell membrane. Long-term incubation of human erythrocytes with Al induced signs of premature erythrocyte death (eryptosis), such as phosphatidylserine externalization, increased intracellular calcium, and band 3 degradation. Signs of oxidative stress, such as significant increase in reactive oxygen species in parallel with decrease in the amount of reduced glutathione, were also observed. These oxidative effects were completely prevented by the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine. Interestingly, erythrocytes were also protected from the prooxidative action of Al by the presence of erythropoietin (EPO). In conclusion, results provide evidence that chronic Al exposure may lead to biochemical and morphological alterations similar to those shown in eryptosis induced by oxidant compounds in human erythrocytes. The antieryptotic effect of EPO may contribute to enhance the knowledge of its physiological role on erythroid cells. Irrespective of the antioxidant mechanism, this property of EPO, shown in this model of Al exposure, let us suggest potential benefits by EPO treatment of patients with anemia associated to altered redox environment. 相似文献

It has been suggested that oxidative stress may participate in the progression of diabetes and its complications. Long-term complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) include retinopathy, atherosclerosis, shortened life span of erythrocytes, nephropathy, and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Oxidative damage has been associated with erythrocyte apoptosis induction in other pathological conditions. Our aim was to study the presence of eryptosis and its possible relationship with oxidative damage in patients with T2DM without CKD (T2DM/CKD(-)) and in patients with T2DM and CKD (T2DM/CKD(+)).Oxidative damage of lipids erythrocytes were increased in diabetic patients. The highest lipoperoxidation was found in T2DM/CKD(+). Likewise, the lower plasma total antioxidant capacity, GSH/GSSG ratio, and GSH in erythrocytes were found in T2DM/CKD(+) patients. A negative correlation was found between plasma total antioxidant capacity and oxidative damage. Phosphatidylserine (PS) externalization was measured in erythrocytes to evaluate eryptosis. Annexin binding in erythrocytes of T2DM/CKD(+) patients was higher than in healthy subjects and T2DM/CKD(-) patients. A positive correlation between lipoperoxidation and PS externalization in erythrocytes was found. This work showed that the erythrocytes of diabetic patients have increased oxidative damage, a reduction of antioxidant systems and more erythrocyte PS externalization. The duration of diabetes and the presence of CKD increase both oxidative damage and eryptosis. It is possible that a longer time of evolution induces an increase in erythrocyte oxidative damage and the consumption of blood antioxidant systems, adding to the osmotic stress in CKD and so contributes to an increase in PS externalization in diabetic patients. 相似文献

Under stress, red blood cells (RBCs) undergo programmed cell death (eryptosis). One of the signaling molecules for eryptosis, sphingomyelinase (SMase), plays an important role in monitoring the efficacy of vascular targeted cancer therapy. The high optical absorption of erythrocytes coupled with the changes of eryptotic RBCs makes RBCs ideal targets for the photoacoustic (PA) detection and characterization of vascular treatments. In this work, experiments characterizing eryptosis were performed: PA detection of high frequencies (>100 MHz) that enabled analysis at the single‐cell level and of low frequencies (21 MHz) that enabled analysis at the RBC ensemble level. Ultrasound spectral analysis was performed on control and SMase‐treated RBCs. Spectral unmixing was applied to quantify methemoglobin production as a by‐product of RBC death. Validation was performed using a blood gas analyzer and optical spectrometry. Our results indicate that PA radiofrequency spectra could be used to differentiate the biochemically induced morphological changes as RBCs lose their native biconcave shape, and release hemoglobin into the surroundings. Spectral unmixing revealed a 7% increase in methemoglobin content for SMase‐treated samples due to the oxidative stress on the RBCs. These findings suggest that PA spectral analysis of RBC death can potentially serve as a biomarker of the efficacy of vascular targeted cancer therapies. 相似文献

Similar to nucleated cells, erythrocytes may undergo suicidal death or eryptosis, which is characterized by cell shrinkage, cell membrane blebbing and cell membrane phospholipid scrambling. Eryptotic cells are removed and thus prevented from undergoing hemolysis. Eryptosis is stimulated by Ca(2+) following Ca(2+) entry through unspecific cation channels. Ca(2+) sensitivity is enhanced by ceramide, a product of acid sphingomyelinase. Eryptosis is triggered by hyperosmolarity, oxidative stress, energy depletion, hyperthermia and a wide variety of xenobiotics and endogenous substances. Eryptosis is inhibited by nitric oxide, catecholamines and a variety of further small molecules. Erythropoietin counteracts eryptosis in part by inhibiting the Ca(2+)-permeable cation channels but by the same token may foster formation of erythrocytes, which are particularly sensitive to eryptotic stimuli. Eryptosis is triggered in several clinical conditions such as iron deficiency, diabetes, renal insufficiency, myelodysplastic syndrome, phosphate depletion, sepsis, haemolytic uremic syndrome, mycoplasma infection, malaria, sickle-cell anemia, beta-thalassemia, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase-(G6PD)-deficiency, hereditary spherocytosis, paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, and Wilson's disease. Enhanced eryptosis is observed in mice with deficient annexin 7, cGMP-dependent protein kinase type I (cGKI), AMP-activated protein kinase AMPK, anion exchanger AE1, adenomatous polyposis coli APC and Klotho as well as in mouse models of sickle cell anemia and thalassemia. Eryptosis is decreased in mice with deficient phosphoinositide dependent kinase PDK1, platelet activating factor receptor, transient receptor potential channel TRPC6, janus kinase JAK3 or taurine transporter TAUT. If accelerated eryptosis is not compensated by enhanced erythropoiesis, clinically relevant anemia develops. Eryptotic erythrocytes may further bind to endothelial cells and thus impede microcirculation. 相似文献

Eryptosis, the suicidal death of erythrocytes, is characterised by cell shrinkage, membrane blebbing and cell membrane phospholipid scrambling with phosphatidylserine exposure at the cell surface. Phosphatidylserine-exposing erythrocytes are recognised by macrophages, which engulf and degrade the affected cells. Reported triggers of eryptosis include osmotic shock, oxidative stress, energy depletion, ceramide, prostaglandin E(2), platelet activating factor, hemolysin, listeriolysin, paclitaxel, chlorpromazine, cyclosporine, methylglyoxal, amyloid peptides, anandamide, Bay-5884, curcumin, valinomycin, aluminium, mercury, lead and copper. Diseases associated with accelerated eryptosis include sepsis, malaria, sickle-cell anemia, beta-thalassemia, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD)-deficiency, phosphate depletion, iron deficiency, hemolytic uremic syndrome and Wilsons disease. Eryptosis may be inhibited by erythropoietin, adenosine, catecholamines, nitric oxide (NO) and activation of G-kinase. Most triggers of eryptosis except oxidative stress are effective without activation of caspases. Their signalling involves formation of prostaglandin E(2) with subsequent activation of cation channels and Ca2+ entry and/or release of platelet activating factor (PAF) with subsequent activation of sphingomyelinase and formation of ceramide. Ca2+ and ceramide stimulate scrambling of the cell membrane. Ca2+ further activates Ca2+-sensitive K+ channels leading to cellular KCl loss and cell shrinkage and stimulates the protease calpain resulting in degradation of the cytoskeleton. Eryptosis allows defective erythrocytes to escape hemolysis. On the other hand, excessive eryptosis favours the development of anemia. Thus, a delicate balance between proeryptotic and antieryptotic mechanisms is required to maintain an adequate number of circulating erythrocytes and yet avoid noneryptotic death of injured erythrocytes. 相似文献

Recently, we have described that apoptosis-like process of red blood cells (RBC) - eryptosis - in malaria is not restricted to parasitized cells, occurring also in non-parasitized RBC (nRBC). Besides to pathogenic proprieties, apoptosis also participates in the innate defense trough restriction of intracellular pathogens propagation. In the present study, we investigated the capacity of P. falciparum parasites to infect eryptotic RBC. Schizont parasitized RBC concentrated by magnetic separation were cultured with eryptotic RBC obtained by ionomycin treatment and, then, parasite growth was evaluated in Giemsa-stained thin blood smears. While parasites infected and developed normally in control non-eryptotic RBC, cultures performed with eryptotic RBC had a marked decrease in parasitaemia. It was noteworthy a great number of free merozoites in eryptotic RBC cultures, indicating that these cells were not susceptible to invasion. We suggest that although eryptosis could be involved in malaria pathogenesis, it could also acting protectively by controlling parasite propagation. 相似文献

Eryptosis or apoptosis-like death of erythrocytes is characterized by phosphatidylserine exposure and erythrocyte shrinkage, both typical features of nucleated apoptotic cells. Eryptosis is triggered by activation of nonselective Ca2+-permeable cation channels with subsequent entry of Ca2+ and stimulation of Ca2+-sensitive scrambling of the cell membrane. The channels are activated and thus eryptosis is triggered by Cl removal, osmotic shock, oxidative stress, or glucose deprivation. The present study has been performed to compare cation channel activity and susceptibility to eryptosis in neonatal and adult erythrocytes. Channel activity was determined by patch-clamp analysis, cytosolic Ca2+ activity by fluo-3 fluorescence, phosphatidylserine exposure by FITC-labeled annexin V binding, and cell shrinkage by decrease in forward scatter in fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) formation, cation channel activity, Ca2+ entry, annexin V binding, and decreased forward scatter were triggered by removal of Cl in both adult and neonatal erythrocytes. The effects were, however, significantly blunted in neonatal erythrocytes. Osmotic shock, PGE2, and platelet-activating factor similarly increased annexin V binding and decreased forward scatter, effects again significantly reduced in neonatal erythrocytes. On the other hand, spontaneous and oxidative (addition of tert-butylperoxide) stress-induced eryptosis was significantly larger in neonatal erythrocytes. In conclusion, cation channel activity, Ca2+ leakage, and thus channel-dependent triggering of eryptosis are blunted, whereas spontaneous and oxidative stress-induced eryptosis is more pronounced in neonatal erythrocytes. annexin V; osmotic cell shrinkage; calcium; apoptosis 相似文献

Suicidal death of erythrocytes, or eryptosis, is characterized by cell shrinkage and cell membrane scrambling leading to phosphatidylserine exposure at the cell surface. Eryptosis is triggered by increase of cytosolic Ca2+ activity, which may result from treatment with the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin or from energy depletion by removal of glucose. The present study tested the hypothesis that phosphatidylserine exposure at the erythrocyte surface fosters adherence to endothelial cells of the vascular wall under flow conditions at arterial shear rates and that binding of eryptotic cells to endothelial cells is mediated by the transmembrane CXC chemokine ligand 16 (CXCL16). To this end, human erythrocytes were exposed to energy depletion (for 48 h) or treated with the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin (1 μM for 30 min). Phosphatidylserine exposure was quantified utilizing annexin-V binding, cell volume was estimated from forward scatter in FACS analysis, and erythrocyte adhesion to human vascular endothelial cells (HUVEC) was determined in a flow chamber model. As a result, both, ionomycin and glucose depletion, triggered eryptosis and enhanced the percentage of erythrocytes adhering to HUVEC under flow conditions at arterial shear rates. The adhesion was significantly blunted in the presence of erythrocyte phosphatidylserine-coating annexin-V (5 μl/ml), of a neutralizing antibody against endothelial CXCL16 (4 μg/ml), and following silencing of endothelial CXCL16 with small interfering RNA. The present observations demonstrate that eryptotic erythrocytes adhere to endothelial cells of the vascular wall in part by interaction of phosphatidylserine exposed at the erythrocyte surface with endothelial CXCL16. 相似文献

Cholesterol is known to affect several membrane functions, including membrane susceptibility to oxidative stress. In order to gain a better understanding of the relationship between cholesterol contents, structural integrity, and degree of survival in oxidatively stressed erythrocytes, here we analyzed the transbilayer phospholipid distribution, the morphology, and the degree of clearance observed in cholesterol-modified (enriched or depleted) and unmodified (control) erythrocytes exposed to tert-butylhydroperoxide. We report that the modification of cholesterol contents in erythrocytes promotes the externalization of phosphatidylserine (PS) to the membrane surface, which is consistent with a concomitant inhibition of aminophospholipid translocase (APLT) and an increased uptake of modified erythrocytes by macrophages. Moreover, cholesterol depletion modifies the transbilayer aminophospholipid distribution induced by oxidative stress to a great extent, significantly increasing PS externalization, which is associated with the strongest decrease in APLT activity. The loss of normal PS asymmetry is positively correlated with enhanced phagocytosis, and an increase in echinocyte forms is observed in all oxidized erythrocytes. We envisage that PS externalization could be due, at least in part, to the decrease in APLT activity induced by oxidative stress, the activity of which is also dependent on membrane cholesterol contents. 相似文献

Activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) upon energy depletion stimulates energy production and limits energy utilization. Erythrocytes lacking AMPK are susceptible to suicidal cell death (eryptosis). A hallmark of eryptosis is cell membrane scrambling with phosphatidylserine exposure at the erythrocyte surface, which can be identified from annexin V-binding. AMPKα1-deficient mice (ampk(-/-)) suffer from anemia due to accelerated clearance of erythrocytes from circulating blood. To determine the link between AMPK and the eryptotic phenotype, we performed a global proteome analysis of erythrocytes from ampk(-/-) mice and wild-type mice using high-accuracy mass spectrometry and label-free quantitation and measured changes of expression levels of 812 proteins. Notably, the p21-activated kinase 2 (PAK2), previously implicated in apoptosis, was detected as downregulated in erythrocytes of ampk(-/-) mice, pointing to its potential role in eryptosis. To validate this, we showed that specific inactivation of PAK2 with the inhibitor IPA3 in human and murine ampk(+/+) erythrocytes increases the binding of annexin V and augments the stimulating effect of glucose deprivation on annexin V-binding. Inhibition of PAK2 failed to significantly modify annexin V-binding in ampk(-/-) erythrocytes, showing that AMPK and PAK2 exert similar phenotypes upon inactivation in erythrocytes. This study presents the first large-scale analysis of protein expression in erythrocytes from AMPKα1-deficient mice and reveals a role of PAK2 kinase in eryptosis. 相似文献

Oxidative stress is a pathological condition characterized by an overload of oxidant products, named free radicals, which are not well counteracted by antioxidant systems. Free radicals induce oxidative damage to many body organs and systems. In neonatal red blood cells, free-radical mediated-oxidative stress leads to eryptosis, a suicidal death process of erythrocytes consequent to alteration of cell integrity. Neonatal red blood cells are targets and at the same time generators of free radicals through the Fenton and Haber-Weiss reactions. Enhanced eryptosis in case of oxidative stress damage may cause anemia if the increased loss of erythrocytes is not enough compensated by enhanced new erythrocytes synthesis. The oxidative disruption of the red cells may cause unconjugated idiopathic hyperbilirubinemia in neonates. High levels of bilirubin are recognized to be dangerous for the central nervous system in newborns, however, many studies have highlighted the antioxidant function of bilirubin. Recently, it has been suggested that physiologic concentration of bilirubin correlates with higher antioxidant status while high pathological bilirubin levels are associated with pro-oxidants effects. The aim of this educational review is to provide an updated understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying erythrocyte oxidant injury and its reversal in neonatal idiopathic hyperbilirubinemia. 相似文献

The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa causes a wide range of infections in multiple hosts by releasing an arsenal of virulence factors such as pyocyanin. Despite numerous reports on the pleiotropic cellular targets of pyocyanin toxicity in vivo, its impact on erythrocytes remains elusive. Erythrocytes undergo an apoptosis‐like cell death called eryptosis which is characterized by cell shrinkage and phosphatidylserine (PS) externalization; this process confers a procoagulant phenotype on erythrocytes as well as fosters their phagocytosis and subsequent clearance from the circulation. Herein, we demonstrate that P. aeruginosa pyocyanin‐elicited PS exposure and cell shrinkage in erythrocyte while preserving the membrane integrity. Mechanistically, exposure of erythrocytes to pyocyanin showed increased cytosolic Ca2+ activity as well as Ca2+‐dependent proteolytic processing of μ‐calpain. Pyocyanin further up‐regulated erythrocyte ceramide abundance and triggered the production of reactive oxygen species. Pyocyanin‐induced increased PS externalization in erythrocytes translated into enhanced prothrombin activation and fibrin generation in plasma. As judged by carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl‐ester labelling, pyocyanin‐treated erythrocytes were cleared faster from the murine circulation as compared to untreated erythrocytes. Furthermore, erythrocytes incubated in plasma from patients with P. aeruginosa sepsis showed increased PS exposure as compared to erythrocytes incubated in plasma from healthy donors. In conclusion, the present study discloses the eryptosis‐inducing effect of the virulence factor pyocyanin, thereby shedding light on a potentially important mechanism in the systemic complications of P. aeruginosa infection. 相似文献

Erythrocyte injury such as osmotic shock, oxidative stress or energy depletion stimulates the formation of prostaglandin E2 through activation of cyclooxygenase which in turn activates a Ca2+ permeable cation channel. Increasing cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations activate Ca2+ sensitive K+ channels leading to hyperpolarization, subsequent loss of KCl and (further) cell shrinkage. Ca2+ further stimulates a scramblase shifting phosphatidylserine from the inner to the outer cell membrane. The scramblase is sensitized for the effects of Ca2+ by ceramide which is formed by a sphingomyelinase following several stressors including osmotic shock. The sphingomyelinase is activated by platelet activating factor PAF which is released by activation of phospholipase A2. Phosphatidylserine at the erythrocyte surface is recognised by macrophages which engulf and degrade the affected cells. Moreover, phosphatidylserine exposing erythrocytes may adhere to the vascular wall and thus interfere with microcirculation. Erythrocyte shrinkage and phosphatidylserine exposure ('eryptosis') mimic features of apoptosis in nucleated cells which however, involves several mechanisms lacking in erythrocytes. In kidney medulla, exposure time is usually too short to induce eryptosis despite high osmolarity. Beyond that high Cl- concentrations inhibit the cation channel and high urea concentrations the sphingomyelinase. Eryptosis is inhibited by erythropoietin which thus extends the life span of circulating erythrocytes. Several conditions trigger premature eryptosis thus favouring the development of anemia. On the other hand, eryptosis may be a mechanism of defective erythrocytes to escape hemolysis. Beyond their significance for erythrocyte survival and death the mechanisms involved in 'eryptosis' may similarly contribute to apoptosis of nucleated cells. 相似文献

Astroglial cytoprotection by erythropoietin pre-conditioning: implications for ischemic and degenerative CNS disorders 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Erythropoietin (Epo) is a glycoprotein secreted by the kidney in response to hypoxia that stimulates erythropoiesis through interaction with cell surface Epo receptors. Pre-treatment with Epo has been shown to protect neurons in models of ischemic injury. The mechanism responsible for this neuroprotection and the effects of Epo on astroglial and other non-neuronal cell populations remain unknown. In the present study, we determined whether Epo pre-treatment protects neonatal rat astrocytes from apoptotic cell death resulting from treatment with nitric oxide, staurosporine (STS) and arsenic trioxide and possible mechanisms mediating Epo-related cytoprotection. Epo (5-20 U/mL) significantly attenuated multiple hallmarks of apoptotic cell death in astroglia exposed to nitric oxide and STS but not arsenic trioxide. Epo (20 U/mL) induced mild oxidative stress as shown by increases in heme oxygenase (HO)-1 mRNA and protein expression that could be suppressed by antioxidant coadministration. Moreover, coincubation with tin-mesoporphyrin, a competitive inhibitor of HO activity, abrogated the cytoprotective effects of Epo (20 U/mL) in the face of STS treatment. Thus, induction of the ho-1 gene may contribute to the glioprotection accruing from high-dose Epo exposure. Epo may augment astroglial resistance to certain chemical stressors by oxidative stress-dependent and -independent mechanisms. 相似文献

Despite enhancing cardiopulmonary and muscular fitness, the effect of hypoxic exercise training (HE) on hemorheological regulation remains unclear. This study investigates how HE modulates erythrocyte rheological properties and further explores the underlying mechanisms in the hemorheological alterations. Twenty-four sedentary males were randomly divided into hypoxic (HE; n = 12) and normoxic (NE; n = 12) exercise training groups. The subjects were trained on 60% of maximum work rate under 15% (HE) or 21% (NE) O(2) condition for 30 min daily, 5 days weekly for 5 wk. The results demonstrated that HE 1) downregulated CD47 and CD147 expressions on erythrocytes, 2) decreased actin and spectrin contents in erythrocytes, 3) reduced erythrocyte deformability under shear flow, and 4) diminished erythrocyte volume changed by hypotonic stress. Treatment of erythrocytes with H(2)O(2) that mimicked in vivo prooxidative status resulted in the cell shrinkage, rigidity, and phosphatidylserine exposure, whereas HE enhanced the eryptotic responses to H(2)O(2). However, HE decreased the degrees of clotrimazole to blunt ionomycin-induced shrinkage, rigidity, and cytoskeleton breakdown of erythrocytes, referred to as Gardos effects. Reduced erythrocyte deformability by H(2)O(2) was inversely related to the erythrocyte Gardos effect on the rheological function. Conversely, NE intervention did not significantly change resting and exercise erythrocyte rheological properties. Therefore, we conclude that HE rather than NE reduces erythrocyte deformability and volume regulation, accompanied by an increase in the eryptotic response to oxidative stress. Simultaneously, this intervention depresses Gardos channel-modulated erythrocyte rheological functions. Results of this study provide further insight into erythrocyte senescence induced by HE. 相似文献

Cellular stress leads to activation of erythrocyte cation channels with subsequent Ca2+ entry and stimulates a sphingomyelinase with subsequent formation of ceramide. Both signaling molecules then activate the
death program of erythrocytes (eryptosis) which is characterized by phosphatidylserine exposure, cellular shrinkage, membrane
blebbing and activation of death-inducing proteases. Some of the mediators accounting for activation of the erythrocyte death
machinery, i. e. prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and platelet activating factor (PAF), have been described and the respective signaling cascades disclosed. The present article
outlines and discusses the methods which have been used to analyze erythrocyte death pathways. Furthermore, some of the pathophysiological
implications of eryptosis signaling are delineated and the methods to screen for eryptosis defects in those conditions are
presented. Needless to say that further research will be required to fully understand the mechanisms leading to suicidal red
blood cell death and to elucidate the role of eryptosis during anemic complications. 相似文献

Amyloid peptides are known to induce apoptosis in a wide variety of cells. Erythrocytes may similarly undergo suicidal death or eryptosis, which is characterized by scrambling of the cell membrane with subsequent exposure of phosphatidylserine (PS) at the cell surface. Eryptosis is triggered by increase of cytosolic Ca(2+) activity and by activation of acid sphingomyelinase with subsequent formation of ceramide. Triggers of eryptosis include energy depletion and isosmotic cell shrinkage (replacement of extracellular Cl(-) by impermeable gluconate for 24 h). The present study explored whether amyloid peptide Abeta (1-42) could trigger eryptosis and to possibly identify underlying mechanisms. Erythrocytes from healthy volunteers were exposed to amyloid and PS-exposure (annexin V binding), cell volume (forward scatter), cytosolic Ca(2+) activity (Fluo3 fluorescence) and ceramide formation (anti-ceramide antibody) were determined by FACS analysis. Exposure of erythrocytes to the amyloid peptide Abeta (1-42) (> or = 0.5 microM) for 24 h significantly triggered annexin V binding, an effect mimicked to a lesser extent by the amyloid peptide Abeta (1-40) (1 microM). Abeta (1-42) (> or = 1.0 microM) further significantly decreased forward scatter of erythrocytes. The effect of Abeta (1-42) (> or = 0.5 microM) on erythrocyte annexin V binding was paralleled by formation of ceramide but not by significant increase of cytosolic Ca(2+) activity. The presence of Abeta (1-42) further significantly enhanced the eryptosis following Cl(-) depletion but not of glucose depletion for 24 hours. The present observations disclose a novel action of Abeta (1-42), which may well contribute to the pathophysiological effects of amyloid peptides, such as vascular complications in Alzheimer's disease. 相似文献

Prostaglandin-E2 (PGE2) is known to trigger suicidal death of nucleated cells (apoptosis) and enucleated erythrocytes (eryptosis). In erythrocytes PGE2 induced suicidal cell death involves activation of nonselective cation channels leading to Ca2+ entry followed by cell shrinkage and triggering of Ca2+ sensitive cell membrane scrambling with phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure at the cell surface. The present study was performed to explore whether PGE2 induces apoptosis of nucleated cells similarly through cation channel activation and to possibly disclose the molecular identity of the cation channels involved. To this end, Ca2+ activity was estimated from Fluo3 fluorescence, mitochondrial potential from DePsipher fluorescence, phosphatidylserine exposure from annexin binding, caspase activation from caspAce fluorescence, cell volume from FACS forward scatter, and DNA fragmentation utilizing a photometric enzyme immunoassay. Stimulation of K562 human leukaemia cells with PGE2 (50 microM) increased cytosolic Ca2+ activity, decreased forward scatter, depolarized the mitochondrial potential, increased annexin binding, led to caspase activation and resulted in DNA fragmentation. Gene silencing of the Ca2+-permeable transient receptor potential cation channel TRPC7 significantly blunted PGE2-induced triggering of PS exposure and DNA fragmentation. In conclusion, K562 cells express Ca2+-permeable TRPC7 channels, which are activated by PGE2 and participate in the triggering of apoptosis. 相似文献
