Developmental processes and stress-induction activate many key proteins in plants such as metacaspase which regulate programmed cell death (PCD). In this study, identification of barley metacaspases and their possible roles upon boron (B)-induction was investigated by using in silico and wet-lab methods. Genome-wide analysis revealed that barley genome harbor ten metacaspases which divided into three groups: Type-I, -I* and -II. Segmental and tandem duplication contributed their expansion. Metacaspase-specific catalytic residues (His and Cys) were found to be altered in HvMC1, 2, and 4, in which His exchanged to Meth or Ala, critical for their activity and substrate selectivity. Cis-acting elements were found to be associated with three main processes: stress response, growth/development, and light response. Digital expression analysis from eight tissues revealed tissue specific metacaspase expressions. In addition, RT-qPCR analysis conducted in appropriate (50 µM) and excess-B (1 and-3 mM) conditions in different time points (3 and 10 days). Toxic level of B caused growth inhibition and chlorosis which appeared at the leaf tips. Also, PCD initiation was detected after 3 days of excess-B exposure. Digital expression and qPCR analysis agreed with each other that HvMC4 expression was significantly increased upon excess-B supplementation. In opposite, HvMC5 was down-regulated in the leaf zones which was another critical B-responsive gene in barley. Hence, HvMC4 and HvMC5 seem to have antagonistic effect during PCD regulation. These results can provide insights for metacaspase functionality in barley, not only limited for B-induction but also various kinds of PCD-causing conditions. 相似文献

Overproduction of reactive oxygen species results in oxidative stress that can cause fatal damage to vital cell structures. It is known that the use of antioxidants could be beneficial in the prevention or delay of numerous diseases associated with oxidative stress. Melatonin (MLT) is known as a powerful free-radical scavenger and antioxidant. It was found that indole ring of MLT can be employed by bioisosteric replacement by other aromatic rings. Quinoline derivatives constitute an important class of compounds for new drug development. Owing to quinoline and hydrazones appealing physiological properties and are mostly found in numerous biologically active compounds a series of quinoline-2-carbaldehyde hydrazone derivatives were synthesized as bioisosteric analogues of MLT, characterized and in vitro antioxidant activity was investigated by evaluating their reducing effect against oxidation of a redox-sensitive fluorescent probe. Cytotoxicity potential of all compounds was investigated both by lactate dehydrogenase leakage assay and by MTT assay. 相似文献

The purpose of this study is to analyze the protective effect of combining N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and hyberbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment in the lung tissue during acute pancreatitis. Sixty Sprague-Dawley male rats were randomly divided into five groups; Group I; Control group (n=12), Group II; pancreatitis group (n=12), Group III; pancreatitis + NAC treatment group (n=12), Group IV; pancreatitis + HBO treatment group (n=12), Group V; pancreatitis + HBO + NAC treatment group (n=12). HBO was applied postoperatively for 5 days, twice a day at 2.5 fold absolute atmospheric pressure for 90 min. Lung tissue was obtained for measuring malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn-SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) levels along with histopathological tissue examinations. This study showed that all three treated groups (HBO alone, NAC alone and combined HBO+NAC treatment) had pulmonary protective effects during acute necrotizing pancreatitis. 相似文献

Selenoprotein P (SeP) is a highly glycosylated, selenium-rich plasma protein. Aside from its role as selenium carrier protein, an antioxidative function of SeP has been suggested. Astrocytes, which detoxify reactive oxygen species in the brain, were described as potential target cells of SeP. We investigated the expression of SeP in human astrocytes and its involvement in the protection of these cells against tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP)-induced oxidative damage. We show that primary human astrocytes and the human astrocytoma cell line MOG-G-CCM express SeP as an unglycosylated protein, which is not secreted. SeP expression in astrocytes is constitutive. Preincubation of astrocytes with hepatocyte-derived SeP mimicks the protective effect of low-molecular-weight selenocompounds such as sodium selenite or selenomethionine against oxidative damage, shielding astrocytes from t-BHP-induced cytotoxicity. Selenium supplementation of astrocytes counteracts oxidative stress via an increase in expression and activity of the selenoenzyme cytosolic glutathione peroxidase (cGPx). Furthermore, specific downregulation of SeP expression by small interfering RNA decreases cell viability of human astrocytes and makes them more susceptible to t-BHP-induced cytotoxicity. Our results implicate an antioxidant activity of constitutively expressed SeP in selenium-deficient astrocytes, while during adequate selenium supply the enhanced protection against oxidative stress is exerted by cGPx. 相似文献

Selenoprotein P protects endothelial cells from oxidative damage by stimulation of glutathione peroxidase expression and activity 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
A major fraction of the essential trace element selenium circulating in human blood plasma is present as selenoprotein P (SeP). As SeP associates with endothelial membranes, the participation of SeP in selenium-mediated protection against oxidative damage was investigated, using the human endothelial cell line Ea.hy926 as a model system. Hepatocyte-derived SeP prevented tert-butylhydroperoxide (t-BHP)-induced oxidative cell death of Ea.hy926 cells in a similar manner as did sodium selenite, counteracting a t-BHP-induced loss of cellular membrane integrity. Protection was detected after at least 10 h of SeP supplementation and it peaked at 24 h. SeP time-dependently stimulated the expression of cytosolic glutathione peroxidase (cGPx) and increased the enzymatic activities of glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and thioredoxin reductase (TR). The cGPx inhibitor mercaptosuccinate as well as the gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase inhibitor buthionine sulfoximine counteracted the SeP-mediated protection, while the TR inhibitors cisplatin and auranofin had no effect. The presented data suggest that selenium supplementation by SeP prevents oxidative damage of human endothelial cells by restoring expression and enzymatic activity of GPx. 相似文献
