It has been proposed that neutrophil- and oxygen radical-dependent microvascular injuries are important prime events that lead to gastric mucosal injury induced by indomethacin. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by activated neutrophils after indomethacin treatment cause gastric mucosal injury via ROS-mediated oxidation of important biomolecules such as lipid, protein, and DNA. In addition, it has been revealed that indomethacin-induced gastric mucosal injury occurs via gastric epithelial cell apoptosis. However, there is little known about the mechanism of indomethacin-triggered cellular response and apoptotic signaling in gastric mucosal cells. In the present study, we summarize the evidence that supports the involvement of oxidative stress and apoptosis in indomethacin-induced gastropathy, and review the gene expression profiles of gastric epithelial cells after indomethacin treatment determined by DNA microarray analysis.  相似文献

Diesel exhaust particles (DEP) are reactive oxygen species (ROS)-inducing toxic agents that damage lungs. Thioredoxin-1 (Trx-1) is a thiol protein with antioxidant and redox-regulating effects. In this study, we demonstrate that Trx-1 scavenges ROS generated by DEP and attenuates the lung injury. Intratracheal instillation of DEP resulted in the generation of more hydroxyl radicals in control mice than in human Trx-1 (hTrx-1)-transgenic mice as measured by noninvasive L-band in vivo electron spin resonance. DEP caused acute lung damage with massive infiltration of inflammatory cells in control mice, but much less damage in hTrx-1-transgenic mice. The hTrx-1 transgene protected the mice against DEP toxicity. To investigate further the molecular mechanism of the protective role of Trx-1 against DEP-induced lung injury, we used hTrx-1-transfected L-929 cells and recombinant hTrx-1 (rhTrx-1)-pretreated A-549 cells. DEP-induced ROS generation was suppressed by hTrx-1 transfection or pretreatment with rhTrx-1. Endogenous Trx-1 expression was induced by DEP in control cells. The downregulation of Akt phosphorylation by DEP resulted in apoptosis, which was prevented by Trx-1. Moreover, an Akt inhibitor canceled this protective effect of Trx-1. Collectively, the results suggest that Trx-1 exerts antioxidant effects in vivo and in vitro and that this plays a role in protection against DEP-induced lung damage by regulating Akt-mediated antiapoptotic signaling.  相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been implicated in the etiology of indomethacin-induced gastric mucosal damage. This study investigated ascorbic acid (vitamin C)'s protective effects against oxidative gastric mucosal damage induced by indomethacin. Ascorbic acid is a powerful antioxidant because it can donate a hydrogen atom and form a relatively stable ascorbyl free radical. We have investigated alterations in the levels of myeloperoxidase, antioxidant system enzymes (glutathione S-transferase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione reductase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase), lipid peroxidation and glutathione, as markers for ulceration process following oral administration of ascorbic acid, famotidine, lansoprazole, and ranitidine in rats with indomethacin-induced ulcers. In the present study, we found that (1) ascorbic acid, famotidine, lansoprazole and ranitidine reduced the development of indomethacin-induced gastric damages; (2) the administration of indomethacin caused a significant decrease in the levels of superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione S-transferase and glutathione, and an increase in the lipid peroxidation level; (3) the administration of ascorbic acid reversed the trend, inducing a significant increase of these enzymes' levels and a reduction in lipid peroxidation level in tissues; and (4) catalase, glutathione reductase and myeloperoxidase activities, increased by indomethacin, were found to be lower in the ascorbic acid, famotidine, lansoprazole and ranitidine-treated groups. The results indicate that the gastroprotective properties of ascorbic acid could be related to its positive effects on the antioxidant system and myeloperoxidase activity in indomethacin-induced gastric ulcers in rats.  相似文献

Recent studies show that Thioredoxin (Trx) possesses a neuronal protective effect and that Trx inactivation is closely related to cerebral ischemia injury. Peroxynitrite (ONOO) formation may trigger oxidative/nitrative stress and represent a major cytotoxic effect in cerebral ischemia. The present study was conducted to validate whether treatment with recombinant human Trx-1 (rhTrx-1) would attenuate ONOO generation and oxidative/nitrative stress in focal transient cerebral ischemia. The results showed that intravenously administered rhTrx-1 (10 mg/kg) significantly improved neurological functions and reduced cerebral infarction and apoptotic cell death following cerebral ischemia. Neuronal ONOO formation was significantly attenuated after rhTrx-1 treatment. Moreover, rhTrx-1 resulted in a significant decrease in antioxidant capacity and p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) activity in ischemic brain tissue. Furthermore, the suppression on ONOO formation by either rhTrx-1 or an ONOO scavenger uric acid reduced cerebral infarct size in mice subjected to cerebral ischemia. Peroxynitrite donor SIN-1 not only blocked the neuronal protection of rhTrx-1 but also markedly attenuated rhTrx-1-induced antioxidative/antinitrative effect. We concluded that rhTrx-1 exerts an antioxidative/antinitrative effect against cerebral ischemia injury by blocking ONOO and superoxide anion formation. These results provide the information that thioredoxin is much more likely to succeed as a therapeutic approach to diminish oxidative/nitrative stress-induced neuronal apoptotic cell death in the ischemic brain.  相似文献

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced mitochondrial oxidative stress (MOS) is an important prostaglandin (PG)-independent pathway of the induction of gastric mucosal injury. However, the molecular mechanism behind MOS-mediated gastric pathology is still obscure. In various pathological conditions of tissue injury oxidative stress is often linked with inflammation. Here we report that MOS induced by indomethacin (an NSAID) induces gastric mucosal inflammation leading to proinflammatory damage. Indomethacin, time dependently stimulated the expression of proinflammatory molecules such as intercellular adhesion molecule 1(ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule 1(VCAM-1), interleukin1β (IL-1β), and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) in gastric mucosa in parallel with the increase of neutrophil infiltration and injury of gastric mucosa in rat. Western immunoblotting and confocal microscopic studies revealed that indomethacin induced nuclear translocation of nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) in gastric mucosal cells, which resulted in proinflammatory signaling. The prevention of MOS by antioxidant tryptamine-gallic acid hybrid (SEGA) inhibited indomethacin-induced expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, IL-1β, and MCP-1. SEGA also prevented indomethacin-induced NF-κB activation and neutrophil infiltration as documented by chromatin immunoprecipitation studies and neutrophil migration assay, respectively. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), a cytoprotective enzyme associated with tissue repair mechanisms is stimulated in response to oxidative stress. We have investigated the role of HO-1 against MOS and MOS-mediated inflammation in recovering from gastropathy. Indomethacin stimulated the expression of HO-1 and indomethacin-stimulated HO-1 expression was reduced by SEGA, an antioxidant, which could prevent MOS. Thus, the data suggested that the induction of HO-1 was a protective response against MOS developed by indomethacin. Moreover, the induction of HO-1 by cobalt protoporphyrin inhibited inflammation and chemical silencing of HO-1 by zinc protoporphyrin aggravated the inflammation by indomethacin. Thus, NSAID by promoting MOS-induced proinflammatory response damaged gastric mucosa and HO-1 protected NSAID-induced gastric mucosal damage by preventing NF-κB activation and proinflammatory activity.  相似文献

Reactive oxygen species and lipid peroxidation play a role in the pathogenesis induced by the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug indomethacin. Melatonin (MLT) protection against indomethacin-induced oxidative tissue injury was investigated in gastric mucosa and testis of rats. MLT was administered intragastrically (i.g.) 30 min before the administration to fasted rats of 20 mg indomethacin/kg rat given i.g.. The area of gastric lesion as well as thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity were found to be significantly increased 4 h after administration of indomethacin in rat gastric mucosa and testis indicating acute oxidative injury. MLT pretreatment reduced gastric lesion area to 80% of the indomethacin-treated rats and reduced the rise in TBARS concentration. MLT treatment reduced the LDH activity increase in testis but not in gastric mucosa. In indomethacin-treated rats, both the cytosolic Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD) and mitochondrial Mn-SOD activities were significantly diminished in gastric mucosa as well as the total SOD activity in testis. In addition, glutathione (GSH) content in both tissues was markedly decreased following indomethacin treatment. Pretreatment with MLT significantly ameliorated both the inhibition of SOD activity and the decreased GSH content in both tissues. Thus, these results show the effective antiperoxidative and preventive actions of MLT against indomethacin-induced gastric mucosal damage and testicular oxidative injury and we propose that this action might be relevant for its use with other free radical generating drugs.  相似文献

This study investigated the involvement of neutrophil infiltration, nitric oxide (NO) generation, and oxidative stress in indomethacin-induced ulcer and the possible gastroprotective potentials of spermine and taurine, known for their tissue regenerating and antioxidant effects, respectively. Male Wistar albino rats (180-220 g) were allocated into a normal control group, ulcer control group (received a single dose of indomethacin 40 mg-kg p.o.), and two ulcer groups pretreated with spermine (150 mg-kg p.o. 1 h before ulcer induction) and taurine (250 mg-kg i.p. for three consecutive days before ulcer induction). The animals were killed 6 h after indomethacin administration, and the gastric juice, serum, and mucosal tissue were used for gastric injury evaluation. Both modulators significantly ameliorated the indomethacin-induced gastric lesions in glandular mucosa. Notably, spermine exhibited the most pronounced effect as manifested by great reduction in the gastric ulcer index, normalization of the elevated gastric acidity, and triggering of mucin production. Spermine and taurine were able to decrease the elevated levels of gastric myeloperoxidase, conjugated diene, and serum NO. However, the lowered tissue NO content was markedly elevated only by taurine. The antioxidant action of taurine was illustrated by restoration of the depressed content of glutathione, normalization of the inhibited activities of glutathione reductase, and superoxide dismutase. These results suggest that spermine and taurine confer significant gastroprotection against indomethacin-induced gastric injury with the priority of spermine.  相似文献

Oxidative stress plays an important role in atherosclerotic vascular disease, and several recent studies were focused on thioredoxin-1 (Trx-1) and its potential protective role against oxidative stress. Since human monocyte-derived macrophages (HMDM) are important cells in several inflammatory diseases including atherosclerosis, we conducted this study to evaluate the impact of extracellular recombinant human Trx-1 (rhTrx-1) on gene expression in lipopolysaccharide-activated HMDM. Our results showed that rhTrx-1 was capable of reducing interleukin (IL)-1beta mRNA and protein synthesis in a dose-dependent manner. This effect was partly mediated through a reduction of NF-kappaB activation as analyzed by transient transfection and gel shift assays. In addition, we showed that the attenuation of NF-kappaB activity was the result of the reduction of both p50 and p65 subunit mRNA and protein synthesis on one hand and of the induction of I-kappaBalpha mRNA and protein expression on the other hand. Moreover, inhibition of endogenous Trx-1 mRNA was also observed, suggesting a contribution to the diminution of NF-kappaB activity since endogenous Trx-1, in contrast to the exogenous Trx-1, activates the NF-kappaB system. Finally, H2O2-oxidized rhTrx-1 reduced IL-1beta mRNA synthesis in lipopolysaccharide-activated HMDM. This result highly suggested that the rhTrx-1 used in this study could be oxidized in the culture medium and, in turn, reduced IL-1beta mRNA and protein synthesis. Taken together, these data indicated a potential new mechanism through which extracellular rhTrx-1 exerts an anti-inflammatory function in HMDM.  相似文献

Salicylic acid has been shown to decrease gastric mucosal lesions induced by indomethacin in the rat. In vitro, it has also been shown to counteract the inhibitory effect of indomethacin and aspirin on the cyclooxygenase enzyme system in seminal vesicle microsomes and in platelets and vascular tissue. The hypothesis that the mechanism of salicylic acid "protection" against indomethacin-induced gastric lesions involves interference with indomethacin-induced mucosal cyclooxygenase inhibition was tested. Male, fasted rats were treated with intragastric salicylic acid in doses of 50, 100, 200, 300, or 400 mg/kg concomitantly with a sc injection of 20 mg/kg of indomethacin. Gastric mucosal lesions and mucosal cyclooxygenase activity (as measured by ex vivo prostaglandin F2 alpha synthesis) were examined 3 hr later. Intragastric salicylic acid, 200-400 mg/kg, significantly reduced indomethacin-induced lesion formation, while counteracting significantly indomethacin inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis. Salicylic acid alone did not significantly change cyclooxygenase activity. It is concluded that topical salicylic acid can decrease indomethacin-induced gastric mucosal lesion in the rat, in part, by counteracting the inhibitory effect of indomethacin at the cyclooxygenase level.  相似文献

The aim of the present study consisted of the investigation of glucocorticoid role in the formation and the healing of indomethacin-induced (25 mg/kg, s.c.) gastric erosions in rats. The effect of deficiency of glucocorticoid production followed by corticosterone replacement on the formation and the healing of the gastric erosions was evaluated. Glucocorticoid production was decreased by adrenalectomy or by delayed inhibitory action after a single pharmacological dose of cortisol (300 mg/kg i.p.) injected 1 week before the onset of ulcerogenic stimulus. Indomethacin induced corticosterone rise and caused gastric erosions. The loss of indomethacin-induced plasma corticosterone rise potentiated the formation of indomethacin-induced erosions in both models. The area of gastric erosions in rats with glucocorticoid deficiency was considerably larger than that in control animals 4 h after indomethacin administration as well as during 48 h after the drug administration (period of erosion healing). Injecting corticosterone in rats with glucocorticoid deficiency significantly decreased the formation of indomethacin-induced gastric erosions and promoted their healing. Thus, the present data support the gastroprotective action of glucocorticoids in the formation and in the healing of indomethacin-induced mucosal injury.  相似文献

Adiponectin is an anti-inflammatory molecule released from adipocytes, and serum adiponectin concentrations are reduced in obesity. We previously reported that gastric erosion occurs in association with obesity and low serum adiponectin levels. In the present study, we examined adiponectin-knockout (APN-KO) mice to elucidate the role of adiponectin in gastric mucosal injury. Gastric injury was induced by oral administration of ethanol in wild-type (WT) and APN-KO mice. Ethanol treatment induced severe gastric injury in APN-KO mice compared with WT mice. In APN-KO mice, increased apoptotic cells and decreased expression of prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) were detected in the injured stomach. We next assessed the effect of adiponectin on the cellular response to ethanol treatment and wound repair in rat gastric mucosal cells (RGM1). Adiponectin induced the expression of PGE(2) and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) in ethanol-treated RGM1 cells. RGM1 cells exhibited efficient wound repair accompanied by increased PGE(2) expression in the presence of adiponectin. Coadministration of adiponectin with celecoxib, a COX-2 inhibitor, inhibited efficient wound repair. These findings indicate that adiponectin has a protective role against ethanol-induced gastric mucosal injury in mice. This effect may be partially mediated by the efficient wound repair of epithelial cells via increased PGE(2) expression.  相似文献

The present study was aimed to evaluate the effect of licofelone, a dual inhibitor of cycloxygenase1/2-5-lipoxygenase against indomethacin-induced gastric damage in rats and mice in order to assess the role of leukotrienes if any, in non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)-induced gastrointestinal inflammation. Acute pretreatment with licofelone reversed the indomethacin-induced gastric ulceration, neutrophil adhesion in mesentery venules, neutrophil count in blood, lipid peroxides and vascularity in the stomachs of mice and rats. Further, chronic pretreatment of licofelone also prevented indomethacin-induced gastric morphological changes and cellular infiltration in mesentery venules. Moreover, acute administration of indomethacin elevated leukotriene B4 levels in gastric mucosa, which was reversed by pretreatment with licofelone The results suggest that licofelone offered gastroprotection against NSAIDs-induced gastropathy through its effect on leukotrienes and by inhibiting extravasation of neutrophils.  相似文献

We have investigated the mechanism of antiapoptotic and cell renewal effects of lansoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, to protect and heal gastric mucosal injury in vivo induced by indomethacin, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Lansoprazole prevents indomethacin-induced gastric damage by blocking activation of mitochondrial and Fas pathways of apoptosis. Lansoprazole prevents indomethacin-induced up-regulation of proapoptotic Bax and Bak and down-regulation of antiapoptotic Bcl-2 and Bcl(xL) to maintain the normal proapoptotic/antiapoptotic ratio and thereby arrests indomethacin-induced mitochondrial translocation of Bax and collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential followed by cytochrome c release and caspase-9 activation. Lansoprazole also inhibits indomethacin-induced Fas-mediated mucosal cell death by down-regulating Fas or FasL expression and inhibiting caspase-8 activation. Lansoprazole favors mucosal cell renewal simultaneously by stimulating gene expression of prosurvival proliferating cell nuclear antigen, survivin, epidermal growth factor, and basic fibroblast growth factor. The up-regulation of Flt-1 further indicates that lansoprazole activates vascular epidermal growth factor-mediated controlled angiogenesis to repair gastric mucosa. Lansoprazole also stimulates the healing of already formed ulcers induced by indomethacin. Time course study of healing indicates that it switches off the mitochondrial death pathway completely but not the Fas pathway. However, lansoprazole heals mucosal lesions almost completely after overcoming the persisting Fas pathway, probably by favoring the prosurvival genes expression. This study thus provides the detailed mechanism of antiapoptotic and prosurvival effects of lansoprazole for offering gastroprotection against indomethacin-induced gastropathy.  相似文献

Pretreatment with a single large dose of cortisol a week before indomethacin administration, or an adrenalectomy induced a glucocorticoid production deficiency in rats. The area of gastric erosions in these rats was considerably larger than in the control animals in 4, 24, and 48 hours after the indomethacin administration. Administration of corticosterone noticeably prompted the healing of the erosions in the rats with glucocorticoid deficiency. The findings suggest a gastroprotective effect of glucocorticoids in healing of indomethacin-induced mucosal injury.  相似文献
