High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a DNA-binding nuclear protein, actively released following cytokine stimulation as well as passively during cell injury and death. Autophagy is a tightly regulated cellular stress pathway involving the lysosomal degradation of cytoplasmic organelles or proteins. Organisms respond to oxidative injury by orchestrating stress responses such as autophagy to prevent further damage. Recently, we reported that HMGB1 is an autophagy sensor in the presence of oxidative stress. Hydrogen peroxide (H 2O 2) and loss of superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1)-mediated oxidative stress promotes cytosolic HMGB1 expression and extracellular release. Inhibition of HMGB1 release or loss of HMGB1 decreases the number of autolysosomes and autophagic flux in human and mouse cell lines under conditions of oxidative stress. These findings provide insight into how HMGB1, a damage associated molecular pattern (DAMP), triggers autophagy as defense mechanism under conditions of cellular stress. 相似文献

Methylotrophic yeasts, which can utilize methanol as sole carbon and energy source, are exposed to two toxic metabolic intermediates, formaldehyde and hydrogen peroxide, during growth on methanol. Here we report that Msn5p, an importin-β family nuclear exporter, participated in the formaldehyde resistance mechanism but not in the hydrogen peroxide resistance mechanism in Candida boidinii. Disruption of the MSN5 gene in this yeast caused retardation of growth on formaldehyde-generating growth substrates such as methanol and methylamine, but the expression levels of the methanol-metabolizing enzymes did not fall. The Msn5p-depleted strain was sensitive to formaldehyde but not to hydrogen peroxide. Furthermore, a yellow fluorescent protein-tagged Msn5p was diffuse in the cytoplasm of C. boidinii when the cells were treated with high concentrations of formaldehyde or ethanol, but was predominantly associated with the nuclei following treatment with hydrogen peroxide. 相似文献

The influence of low (3 μM) and high (60 and 120 μM) cadmium (Cd) concentrations were studied on selected aspects of metabolism in 4-week-old chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla L.) plants. After 10 days’ exposure, dry mass accumulation and nitrogen content were not significantly altered under any of the levels of Cd. However, there was a significant decline in chlorophyll and water content in the leaves. Among coumarin-related compounds, herniarin was not affected by Cd, while its precursors (Z)- and (E)-2-β-d-glucopyranosyloxy-4-methoxycinnamic acids (GMCAs) increased significantly at all the levels of Cd tested. Cd did not have any effect on umbelliferone, a stress metabolite of chamomile. Lipid peroxidation was also not affected by even 120 μM Cd. Cd accumulation was approximately seven- (60 μM Cd treatment) to eleven- (120 μM Cd treatment) fold higher in the roots than that in the leaves. At high concentrations, it stimulated potassium leakage from the roots, while at the lowest concentration it could stimulate potassium uptake. The results supported the hypothesis that metabolism was altered only slightly under high Cd stress, indicating that chamomile is tolerant to this metal. Preferential Cd accumulation in the roots indicated that chamomile could not be classified as a hyperaccumulator and, therefore, it is unsuitable for phytoremediation. 相似文献

Bcl-2/adenovirus E1B 19-kDa protein-interacting protein 3 (Bnip3) is a member of the Bcl-2 homology domain 3-only subfamily of proapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins and is associated with cell death in the myocardium. In this study, we investigated the potential mechanism(s) by which Bnip3 activity is regulated. We found that Bnip3 forms a DTT-sensitive homodimer that increased after myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). The presence of the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine reduced I/R-induced homodimerization of Bnip3. Overexpression of Bnip3 in cells revealed that most of exogenous Bnip3 exists as a DTT-sensitive homodimer that correlated with increased cell death. In contrast, endogenous Bnip3 existed mainly as a monomer under normal conditions in the heart. Screening of the Bnip3 protein sequence revealed a single conserved cysteine residue at position 64. Mutation of this cysteine to alanine (Bnip3C64A) or deletion of the NH2-terminus (amino acids 1-64) resulted in reduced cell death activity of Bnip3. Moreover, mutation of a histidine residue in the COOH-terminal transmembrane domain to alanine (Bnip3H173A) almost completely inhibited the cell death activity of Bnip3. Bnip3C64A had a reduced ability to interact with Bnip3, whereas Bnip3H173A was completely unable to interact with Bnip3, suggesting that homodimerization is important for Bnip3 function. A consequence of I/R is the production of reactive oxygen species and oxidation of proteins, which promotes the formation of disulfide bonds between proteins. Thus, these experiments suggest that Bnip3 functions as a redox sensor where increased oxidative stress induces homodimerization and activation of Bnip3 via cooperation of the NH2-terminal cysteine residue and the COOH-terminal transmembrane domain. 相似文献
