Abstract
Dynamic variations in the concentration and abnormal distribution of endogenous biomarkers are strongly associated with multiple physiological and pathological states. Therefore, it is crucial to design imaging systems capable of real-time detection of dynamic changes in biomarkers for the accurate diagnosis and effective treatment of diseases. Recently, ratiometric imaging has emerged as a widely used technique for sensing and imaging of biomarkers due to its advantage of circumventing the limitations inherent to conventional intensity-dependent signal readout methods while also providing built-in self-calibration for signal correction. Here, the recent progress of ratiometric probes and their applications in sensing and imaging of biomarkers are outlined. Ratiometric probes are classified according to their imaging mechanisms, and ratiometric photoacoustic imaging, ratiometric optical imaging including photoluminescence imaging and self-luminescence imaging, ratiometric magnetic resonance imaging, and dual-modal ratiometric imaging are discussed. The applications of ratiometric probes in the sensing and imaging of biomarkers such as pH, reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), glutathione (GSH), gas molecules, enzymes, metal ions, and hypoxia are discussed in detail. Additionally, this Review presents an overview of challenges faced in this field along with future research directions.

Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase pathway inhibitor (Olaparib) upregulates SERCA2a expression and attenuates doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy in mice. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY 2023; 103:104261. [PMID: 37689219 DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2023.104261] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2023] [Revised: 08/19/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/11/2023]
Abstract
The cardiotoxicity induced by doxorubicin is dose-dependent. The present study tested the potential cardioprotective effect of Poly ADP Ribose Polymerase (PARP) pathway inhibitor "olaparib" in a mouse model of doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy (DOX-CM). Seventy-two male BALB/c mice were randomized into six equal groups; control, DOX-CM, dexrazoxane-treated, and three olaparib-treated groups (5, 10, and 50 mg/kg/day). Cardiomyopathy was assessed by heart weight/Tibial length (HW/TL) ratio, cardiac fibrosis, oxidative stress, and electron microscope. Myocardial expression of SERCA2a mRNA and cleaved PARP-1 protein were also assessed. Similar to dexrazoxane, olaparib (10 mg/kg/day) significantly ameliorated oxidative stress, and preserved cardiac structure. It also suppressed myocardial PARP-1 protein expression and boosted SERCA2a mRNA expression. Olaparib (5 or 50 mg/kg/day) failed to show comparable effects. The current study detected the cardioprotective effect of olaparib at a dosage of 10 mg/kg/day. Also, the present study discovered a new cardioprotective mechanism of dexrazoxane by targeting PARP-1 in the heart.

Abstract
Peroxynitrite (ONOO- ) is an essential endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated in mitochondria under various pathological and physiological conditions. An increase in its level in mitochondria is related to numerous diseases. Herein, we report a series of hemicyanine-derived water-soluble colorimetric probes (1-4) and the reactivity of which was studied with various reactive oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur species. Probes 1-4 are formed by conjugating 1,2,3,3-tetramethyl-3H-indolium iodide and 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde or its derivatives through an alkene linkage formed by the Knoevenagel reaction. Oxidative cleavage of the electron-rich double bond of the conjugated hemicyanine dye revealed a discerning affinity of probe 3 towards peroxynitrite among all reactive oxygen species. The rapid change in color of 3 provides a sensitive and selective method for detecting peroxynitrite with a low detection limit of 180 nM. Notably, the water solubility of the probe displays excellent performance for the selective detection of peroxynitrite among ROS and reactive nitrogen (RNS)/sulfur species (RSS). UV-vis, 1 H NMR, and 13 C NMR spectroscopic data and results from theoretical calculations provide further information on the interaction of peroxynitrite with probe 3.

Protein S-nitrosylation: Nitric oxide signalling during anuran tail regression. Acta Histochem 2022; 124:151899.

Abstract
Tail regression is a remarkable process where a complex organ like the tail is completely resorbed by cell death during anuran metamorphosis. Nitric oxide is a signalling molecule involved in various physiological processes and along with reactive nitrogen species induces apoptosis. The present study describes the contribution of nitric oxide and reactive nitrogen species (nitrosative stress) during tail regression in the tadpoles of Indian tree frog, Polypedates maculatus. Spectrophotometric estimation revealed significantly higher levels of nitrite, nitrate and peroxynitrite in the regressing tails of the late climactic stages as compared to the early climactic stages and pre-regressing tails. S-nitrosylated proteins were detected in the apoptotic cells of epidermis and muscle, denervated and fragmented myofibres, outer notochordal sheath of the degenerating notochord, endothelium of blood vessels, blood cells and spinal cord of the regressing tail of the late climactic stages using fluorescent detection methods. Thus, a higher level of nitrosative stress in the late climactic stages is suggested to cause S-nitrosylation of proteins and subsequent apoptosis in the tail tissues. Macrophages were found engulfing the apoptotic cells and cell debris at the distal end of the regressing tail. Interestingly, macrophages were always found to be associated with melanocytes suggesting a close association for clearing cell debris by phagocytosis.

Abstract
Oxidative stress-inducing therapies are characterized as a specific treatment that involves the production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) by external or internal sources. To protect cells against oxidative stress, cells have evolved a strong antioxidant defense system to either prevent RONS formation or scavenge them. The maintenance of the redox balance ensures signal transduction, development, cell proliferation, regulation of the mechanisms of cell death, among others. Oxidative stress can beneficially be used to treat several diseases such as neurodegenerative disorders, heart disease, cancer, and other diseases by regulating the antioxidant system. Understanding the mechanisms of various endogenous antioxidant systems can increase the therapeutic efficacy of oxidative stress-based therapies, leading to clinical success in medical treatment. This review deals with the recent novel findings of various cellular endogenous antioxidant responses behind oxidative stress, highlighting their implication in various human diseases, such as ulcers, skin pathologies, oncology, and viral infections such as SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is considered to be one of the main contributors of cyclophosphamide (CP)-induced toxicity, and the generation of free radicals will cause the interruption of multiple signal transduction pathways. Peroxynitrite (ONOO-) has strong oxidation and nitrification ability and is considered as an indirect indicator of oxidative stress. Therefore, it is necessary to design a fluorescent probe that can detect ONOO- and monitor CP-induced oxidative stress during chemotherapy. Herein, we synthesized a lipid droplet targeting fluorescent probe SX-1 based on triphenylamine-benzoindocyanine. When ONOO- is added to the probe SX-1, the CC bond in the probe is broken, thereby releasing fluorescence. The good spectral response characteristics enable SX-1 to successfully track the fluctuations of ONOO- in living cells. Most importantly, we provided the first visual evidence that the level of ONOO- in HeLa cells was up-regulated under CP induction. All results indicated that SX-1 has great potential in detecting drug-induced ONOO-, and provided a new detection tool for a deeper understanding of drug-induced organism injury.

Abstract
In vivo levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are critical to many physiological and pathological processes. Because of the distinct differences in their biological generation and effects, simultaneously visualizing both of them could help deepen our insights into the mechanistic details of these processes. However, real-time and deep-tissue imaging and differentiation of ROS- and RNS-related molecular events in living subjects still remain a challenge. Here, we report the development of two activatable 19F magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) molecular probes with different 19F chemical shifts and specific responsive behaviors for simultaneous in vivo detection and deep-tissue imaging of O2•- and ONOO-. These probes are capable of real-time visualization and differentiation of O2•- and ONOO- in living mice with drug-induced acute kidney injury by interference-free multiplexed hot-spot 19F MRI, illustrating the potential of this technique for background-free real-time imaging of diverse biological processes, accurate diagnosis of various diseases in deep tissues, and rapid toxicity evaluation of assorted drugs.

Abstract
Despite the success in the tactics of treating COVID-19, there are many unexplored issues related to the development and progression of the process in the lungs, brain, and other organs, as well as the role of individual elements, in particular, nitric oxide (NO), and in the pathogenesis of organ damage. Based on the analyzed literature data, we considered a possible pathophysiological mechanism of action of NO and its derivatives in COVID-19. It can be noted that hyperimmune systemic inflammation and "cytokine storm" are enhanced by the production of NO, products of its oxidation ("nitrosative stress"). It is noted in the work that as a result of the oxidation of NO, a large amount of the toxic compound peroxynitrite is formed, which is a powerful proinflammatory agent. Its presence significantly damages the endothelium of the vascular walls and also oxidizes lipids, hemoglobin, myoglobin, and cytochrome, binds SH-groups of proteins, and damages DNA in the target cells. This is confirmed by the picture of the vessels of the lungs on computed tomography and the data of biochemical studies. In case of peroxynitrite overproduction, inhibition of the synthesis of NO and its metabolic products seems to be justified. Another aspect considered in this work is the mechanism of damage by the virus to the central and peripheral nervous system, which remains poorly understood but may be important in understanding the consequences, as well as predicting brain functions in persons who have undergone COVID-19. According to the analyzed literature, it can be concluded that brain damage is possible due to the direct effect of the virus on the peripheral nerves and central structures, and indirectly through the effect on the endothelium of cerebral vessels. Disturbances in the central nervous regulation of immune responses may be associated with the insufficient function of the acetylcholine anti-inflammatory system. It is proposed to further study several approaches to influence various links of NO exchange, which are of interest for theoretical and practical medicine.

Abstract
Melanin is a ubiquitous natural polyphenolic pigment with versatile applications including physiological functions. This polymeric material is found in a diversity of living organisms from bacteria to mammals. The biocompatibility and thermal stability of melanin nanoparticles make them good candidates to work as free radical scavengers and photothermal anticancer substrates. Research studies have identified melanin as an antioxidative therapeutic agent and/or reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger that includes neutralization of peroxynitrite. In addition, melanin nanoparticles have emerged as an anticancer photothermal platform that has the capability to kill cancer cells. Recently, melanin nanoparticles have been successfully used as chelating agents to purify water from heavy metals, such as hexavalent chromium. This review article highlights some selected aspects of cutting-edge melanin applications. Herein, we will refer to the recent literature that addresses melanin nanoparticles and its useful physicochemical properties as a hot topic in biomaterial science. It is expected that the techniques of Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and time-resolved Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) will have a strong impact on the full characterization of melanin nanoparticles and the subsequent exploration of their physiological and chemical mechanisms.

Abstract
Exogenous ubiquitin (UB) plays a protective role in β-adrenergic receptor-stimulated and ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced myocardial remodeling. Here, we report that UB treatment inhibits hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced apoptosis in adult rat ventricular myocytes (ARVMs). The activation of Akt was elevated, whereas the activation of glycogen synthase kinase-3β was reduced in UB-treated cells post-H/R. The level of oxidative stress was lower, whereas the number of ARVMs with polarized mitochondria was significantly greater in the UB-treated samples. ARVMs express CXCR4 with majority of CXCR4 localized in the membrane fraction. CXCR4 antagonism using AMD3100, and siRNA-mediated knockdown of CXCR4 negated the protective effects of UB. Two mutated UB proteins (unable to bind CXCR4) had no effect on H/R-induced apoptosis, activation of Akt and GSK-3β, or oxidative stress. UB treatment enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis, and inhibition of mitochondrial fission using mdivi1 inhibited H/R-induced apoptosis. Ex vivo, UB treatment significantly decreased infarct size and improved functional recovery of the heart following global I/R. Activation of caspase-9, a key player of the mitochondrial death pathway, was significantly lower in UB-treated hearts post-I/R. UB, most likely acting via CXCR4, plays a protective role in H/R-induced myocyte apoptosis and myocardial I/R injury via modulation of mitochondrial homeostasis and the mitochondrial death pathway of apoptosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the actions of isoespintanol (Isoesp) on post-ischemic myocardial and mitochondrial alterations. METHODS Hearts removed from Wistar rats were perfused by 20 min. After this period, the coronary flow was interrupted by half an hour and re-established during 1 h. In the treated group, Isoesp was administered at the beginning of reperfusion. To assess the participation of ε isoform of protein kinase C (PKCε), protein kinase B (PKB/Akt), and nitric oxide synthase (NOS), hearts were treated with Isoesp plus the respective inhibitors (chelerythrine, wortmannin, and N-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester). Cell death was determined by triphenyl tetrazolium chloride staining technique. Post-ischemic recovery of contractility, oxidative stress, and content of phosphorylated forms of PKCε, Akt, and eNOS were also examined. Mitochondrial state was assessed through the measurement of calcium-mediated response, calcium retention capacity, and mitochondrial potential. RESULTS Isoesp limited cell death, decreased post-ischemic dysfunction and oxidative stress, improved mitochondrial state, and increased the expression of PKCε, Akt, and eNOS phosphorylated. All these beneficial effects achieved by Isoesp were annulled by the inhibitors. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that activation of Akt/eNOS and PKCε signaling pathways are involved in the development of Isoesp-induced cardiac and mitochondria tolerance to ischemia-reperfusion.

Abstract
The mitogen-activated protein kinase ERK1/2 (ERKs, extracellular-regulated protein kinases) plays important roles in a wide spectrum of cellular processes and have been implicated in many disease states. The spatiotemporal regulation of ERK activity has been extensively studied. However, scarce information has been available regarding the quality control of the kinases to scavenge malfunctioning ERKs. Using site-specific mutagenesis and mass spectrometry, we found that the disruption of the conserved H-bond between Y210 and E237 of ERK1 through point mutation at or naturally occurring nitration on Y210 initiates a quality control program dependent on chaperon systems and CHIP (C-terminal of Hsp70-interacting protein)-mediated ubiquitination and degradation. The H-bond is also important for the quality control of ERK2, but through a distinct mechanism. These findings clearly demonstrate how malfunctioning ERKs are eliminated when cells are in certain stress conditions or unhealthy states, and could represent a general mechanism for scavenging malfunctioning kinases in stress conditions.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia reperfusion is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and increased formation of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species. The main purpose of this study was to assess the role of tyrosine nitration of mitochondrial proteins in postischemic contractile dysfunction known as myocardial stunning. Isolated Langendorff-perfused rat hearts were subjected to 20-min global ischemia followed by 30-min reperfusion. The reperfused hearts showed marked decline in left ventricular developed pressure, maximal rate of contraction (+dP/dt), and maximal rate of relaxation (-dP/dt). Immunofluorescence and ELISA assays demonstrated enhanced protein tyrosine nitration in reperfused hearts. Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry, eight mitochondrial proteins were identified to be nitrated after ischemia reperfusion. These proteins are crucial in mitochondrial electron transport, fatty acid oxidation, tricarboxylic acid cycle, ATP synthesis, and control of high-energy phosphates. The proteome data also indicated reduced abundance in several of nitrated proteins. The results suggest that these changes may contribute to inhibition of aconitase activity but are unlikely to affect electron transport chain activity. Whether tyrosine nitration of mitochondrial proteins can be considered the contributing factor of postischemic contractile dysfunction remains to be explored.

Front Physiol 2019; 9:1869.

Abstract
Background: Pressure unloading induces the regression of left ventricular myocardial hypertrophy (LVH). Recent findings indicate that pharmacological activation of the soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) – cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway may also exert reverse-remodeling properties in the myocardium. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effects of the sGC activator cinaciguat in a rat model of LVH and compare it to the “gold standard” pressure unloading therapy. Methods: Abdominal aortic banding was performed for 6 or 12 weeks. Sham operated animals served as controls. Pressure unloading was induced by removing the aortic constriction after week 6. The animals were treated from week 7 to 12, with 10 mg/kg/day cinaciguat or with placebo p.o., respectively. Cardiac function and morphology were assessed by left ventricular pressure-volume analysis and echocardiography. Additionally, key markers of myocardial hypertrophy, fibrosis, nitro-oxidative stress, apoptosis and cGMP signaling were analyzed. Results: Pressure unloading effectively reversed LVH, decreased collagen accumulation and provided protection against oxidative stress and apoptosis. Regression of LVH was also associated with a full recovery of cardiac function. In contrast, chronic activation of the sGC enzyme by cinaciguat at sustained pressure overload only slightly influenced pre-established hypertrophy. However, it led to increased PKG activity and had a significant impact on interstitial fibrosis, nitro-oxidative stress and apoptosis. Amelioration of the pathological structural alterations prevented the deterioration of LV systolic function (contractility and ejection fraction) and improved myocardial stiffness. Conclusion: Our results indicate that both cinaciguat treatment and pressure unloading evoked anti-remodeling effects and improved LV function, however in a differing manners.

Abstract
Peroxynitrite is a powerful oxidant, formed from the reaction of nitric oxide and superoxide. It is known to interact and modify different biological molecules such as DNA, lipids and proteins leading to alterations in their structure and functions. These events elicit various cellular responses, including cell signaling, causing oxidative damage and committing cells to apoptosis or necrosis. This review discusses nitrosative stress-induced modification in the DNA molecule that results in the formation of 8-nitroguanine and 8-oxoguanine, and its role in disease conditions. Different approaches of cell death, such as necrosis and apoptosis, are modulated by cellular high-energy species, such as ATP and NAD+. High concentrations of peroxynitrite are known to cause necrosis, whereas low concentrations lead to apoptosis. Any damage to DNA activates cellular DNA repair machinery, like poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). PARP-1, an isoform of PARP, is a DNA nick-sensing enzyme that becomes activated upon sensing DNA breakage and triggers the cleavage of NAD+ into nicotinamide and ADP-ribose and polymerizes the latter on nuclear acceptor proteins. Peroxynitrite-induced hyperactivation of PARP causes depletion of NAD+ and ATP culminating cell dysfunction, necrosis or apoptosis. This mechanistic pathway is implicated in the pathogenesis of a variety of diseases, including circulatory shock (which is characterized by cellular hypoxia triggered by systemic altered perfusion and tissue oxygen utilization leading end-organ dysfunction), sepsis and inflammation, injuries of the lung and the intestine. The cytotoxic effects of peroxynitrite centering on the participation of PARP-1 and ADP-ribose in previously stated diseases have also been discussed in this review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND One of the major events in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R)-induced heart injury in cardiac transplantation is the generation of reactive oxygen species. We hypothesized that a novel preservation solution called SBI-SEIIKU II (SS-II) contains 3 antioxidant reagents: L-cysteine, glycine, ascorbic acid/ascorbic acid-2-phosphate magnesium, which can block the generation of reactive oxygen species to result in a prolongation of the cold storage time via attenuating I/R injury. METHODS C57BL/6CrSlc(B6) mice underwent syngeneic mice heterotopic heart transplantation, and the animals were derived into 3 groups: recipients with nonpreserved grafts (control group), recipients with grafts preserved in histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) for 24 and 48 hours (HTK group), and recipients with grafts preserved in SS-II for 24 and 48 hours (SS-II group). RESULTS After 48 hours of preservation, there were no grafts that survived in the HTK group; however, the SS-II group had a high survival rate. After 24 hours of preservation, SS-II decreased the oxidative damage, myocardial apoptosis, and the infiltration of macrophages and neutrophils in the cardiac grafts in the early phase and suppressed the development of myocardial fibrosis in long-term grafts compared with HTK. CONCLUSIONS The SS-II prolongs the acceptable cold storage time and protects the myocardium from I/R injury via inhibiting oxidative stress-associated damage. We believe that this novel preservation solution may be simple and safe for use in the clinical transplantation field.

Abstract
PURPOSE The present study aimed to evaluate the changes in levels of different independent risk factors for vascular diseases in the rat offspring of maternal obesity and malnutrition as maternal health disturbances are thought to have direct consequences on the offspring health. The effect of postnatal diet on the offspring was also assessed. METHODS Three groups of female Wistar rats were used (control, obese and malnourished). After the pregnancy and delivery, the offspring were weaned to control diet or high-caloric (HCD) diet and followed up for 30 weeks. Every 5 weeks postnatal, 20 pups (10 males and 10 females) of each subgroup were sacrificed after overnight fasting, the blood sample was obtained, and the rats were dissected out to obtain heart muscle. The following parameters were assessed; lipid profile, NEFA, homocysteine (Hcy), nitric oxide end product (NOx) and myocardial triglyceride content. RESULTS Maternal obesity and malnutrition caused significant elevation in the body weight, triglycerides, NEFA, Hcy and NOx in the F1 offspring especially those maintained under HCD. Also, the male offspring showed more prominent changes than female offspring. CONCLUSIONS Maternal malnutrition and obesity may increase the risk of the development of cardiovascular diseases in the offspring, especially the male ones.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Donor lungs obtained after prolonged warm ischemia (WI) may be unsuitable for transplantation due to the risk of reperfusion injury, but could be reconditioned using ex-vivo lung perfusion (EVLP). Key processes of reperfusion injury include the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS)/nitrogen species (RNS) and the activation of poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP). We explored whether rat lungs obtained after WI could be reconditioned during EVLP using the ROS/RNS scavenger Mn(III)-tetrakis (4-benzoic acid) porphyrin chloride (MnTBAP) or the PARP inhibitor 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB). METHODS Rat lungs obtained after 3 hours cold ischemia (CI group, control), or 1 hour WI plus 2 hours CI (WI group) were placed in an EVLP circuit for normothermic perfusion for 3 hours. Lungs retrieved after WI were treated or not with 3-AB (1 mg/mL) or MnTBAP (0.3 mg/mL), added to the perfusate. Measurements included physiological variables (lung compliance, vascular resistance, oxygenation capacity), lung weight gain, levels of proteins, lactate dehydrogenase, protein carbonyl (marker of ROS), 3-nitrotyrosine (marker of RNS), poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) (PAR, marker of PARP activation) and IL-6, in the bronchoalveolar lavage or the lung tissue, and histology. RESULTS In comparison to the CI group, the lungs from the WI group displayed higher protein carbonyls, 3-nitrotyrosine, PAR, lactate dehydrogenase and proteins in bronchoalveolar lavage, lung weight gain, perivascular edema, as well as reduced static compliance, but similar oxygenation. All these alterations were markedly attenuated by 3-AB and MnTBAP. CONCLUSIONS After EVLP, lungs obtained after WI exhibit oxidative stress, PARP activation, and tissue injury, which are suppressed by pharmacological inhibitors of ROS/RNS and PARP.

Abstract
Considering the vital role of skeletal muscle in control of whole-body metabolism and the severity of long-term diabetic complications, we aimed to reveal the molecular pattern of early diabetes-related skeletal muscle phenotype in terms of energy metabolism, focusing on regulatory mechanisms, and the possibility to improve it using two redox modulators, l-arginine and superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimic. Alloxan-induced diabetic rats (120 mg/kg) were treated with l-arginine or the highly specific SOD mimic, M40403, for 7 days. As appropriate controls, non-diabetic rats received the same treatments. We found that l-arginine and M40403 restored diabetes-induced impairment of phospho-5'-AMP-activated protein kinase α (AMPKα) signaling by upregulating AMPKα protein itself and its downstream effectors, peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α and nuclear respiratory factor 1. Also, there was a restitution of the protein levels of oxidative phosphorylation components (complex I, complex II and complex IV) and mitofusin 2. Furthermore, l-arginine and M40403 induced translocation of glucose transporter 4 to the membrane and upregulation of protein of phosphofructokinase and acyl coenzyme A dehydrogenase, diminishing negative diabetic effects on limiting factors of glucose and lipid metabolism. Both treatments abolished diabetes-induced downregulation of sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium-ATPase proteins (SERCA 1 and 2). Similar effects of l-arginine and SOD mimic treatments suggest that disturbances in the superoxide/nitric oxide ratio may be responsible for skeletal muscle mitochondrial and metabolic impairment in early diabetes. Our results provide evidence that l-arginine and SOD mimics have potential in preventing and treating metabolic disturbances accompanying this widespread metabolic disease.

Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 2017; 312:C418-C427. [DOI: 10.1152/ajpcell.00356.2016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2016] [Revised: 01/12/2017] [Accepted: 01/12/2017] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
An increase in oxidative stress is suggested to be the main cause in Doxorubicin (Dox)–induced cardiotoxicity. However, there is now evidence that activation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and nitrosative stress are also involved. The role of vitamin C (Vit C) in the regulation of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and reduction of nitrosative stress in Dox-induced cardiotoxicity is unknown. The present study investigated the effects of Vit C in the mitigation of Dox-induced changes in the levels of nitric oxide (NO), NOS activity, protein expression of NOS isoforms, and nitrosative stress as well as cytokines TNF-α and IL-10 in isolated cardiomyocytes. Cardiomyocytes isolated from adult Sprague-Dawley rats were segregated into four groups: 1) control, 2) Vit C (25 µM), 3) Dox (10 µM), and 4) Vit C + Dox. Dox caused a significant increase in the generation of superoxide radical (O2·−), peroxynitrite, and NO, and these effects of Dox were blunted by Vit C. Dox increased the expression of iNOS and altered protein expression as well as activation of endothelial NOS (eNOS). These changes were prevented by Vit C. Dox induced an increase in the ratio of monomeric/dimeric eNOS, promoting the production of O2·−, which was prevented by Vit C by increasing the stability of the dimeric form of eNOS. Vit C protected against the Dox-induced increase in TNFα as well as a reduction in IL-10. These results suggest that Vit C provides cardioprotection by reducing oxidative/nitrosative stress and inflammation via a modulation of Dox-induced increase in the NO levels and NOS activity.

Abstract
Excessive feeding is associated with an increase in the incidence of chronic metabolic diseases, such as obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes. Metabolic disturbance induces chronic low-grade inflammation in metabolically-important organs, such as the liver and adipose tissue. Many of the inflammatory signalling pathways are directly triggered by nutrients. The pro-inflammatory mediators in adipocytes and macrophages infiltrating adipose tissue promote both local and systemic pro-inflammatory status. Metabolic cardiomyopathy is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by structural and functional alterations and interstitial fibrosis without coronary artery disease or hypertension. In the early stage of metabolic cardiomyopathy, metabolic disturbance is not accompanied by substantial changes in myocardial structure and cardiac function. However, metabolic disturbance induces subcellular low-grade inflammation in the heart, and in turn, subcellular component abnormalities, such as oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, endoplasmic reticulum stress, and impaired calcium handling, leading to impaired myocardial relaxation. In the advanced stage, the vicious cycle of subcellular component abnormalities, inflammatory cell infiltration, and neurohumoral activation induces cardiomyocyte injury and death, and cardiac fibrosis, resulting in impairment of both diastolic and systolic functions. This review discusses some recent advances in understanding involvement of inflammation in metabolic cardiomyopathy.

Protective Effects and Mechanism of Meretrix meretrix Oligopeptides against Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease. Mar Drugs 2017; 15:md15020031.

Abstract
Meretrix meretrix oligopeptides (MMO) derived from shellfish have important medicinal properties. We previously obtained MMO from alcalase by hydrolysis processes. Here we examine the protective effects of MMO against nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and explored the underlying mechanism. Human Chang liver cells were used in our experiments after exposure to palmitic acid at a final concentration of 15 μg/mL for 48 h to induce an overload of fatty acid as NAFLD model cells. Treatment with MMO for 24 h increased the viability of the NAFLD model cells by inhibiting apoptosis. MMO alleviated oxidative stress in the NAFLD model cells by preserving reactive oxygen species activity and increasing malondialdehyde and superoxide dismutase activity. MMO improved mitochondrial dysfunction by decreasing the mitochondrial membrane potential and increasing the activities of Na+/K+-ATPase and Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPase. In addition, MMO inhibited the activation of cell death-related pathways, based on reduced p-JNK, Bax expression, tumor necrosis factor-α, caspase-9, and caspase-3 activity in the NAFLD model cells, and Bcl-2 expression was enhanced in the NAFLD model cells compared with the control group. These findings indicate that MMO have antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects on NAFLD model cells and may thus exert protective effects against NAFLD.

Abstract
Re-establishing blood supply is the primary goal for reducing myocardial injury in subjects with ischemic heart disease. Paradoxically, reperfusion results in nitroxidative stress and a marked inflammatory response in the heart. TRAF3IP2 (TRAF3 Interacting Protein 2; previously known as CIKS or Act1) is an oxidative stress-responsive cytoplasmic adapter molecule that is an upstream regulator of both IκB kinase (IKK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and an important mediator of autoimmune and inflammatory responses. Here we investigated the role of TRAF3IP2 in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-induced nitroxidative stress, inflammation, myocardial dysfunction, injury, and adverse remodeling. Our data show that I/R up-regulates TRAF3IP2 expression in the heart, and its gene deletion, in a conditional cardiomyocyte-specific manner, significantly attenuates I/R-induced nitroxidative stress, IKK/NF-κB and JNK/AP-1 activation, inflammatory cytokine, chemokine, and adhesion molecule expression, immune cell infiltration, myocardial injury, and contractile dysfunction. Furthermore, Traf3ip2 gene deletion blunts adverse remodeling 12 weeks post-I/R, as evidenced by reduced hypertrophy, fibrosis, and contractile dysfunction. Supporting the genetic approach, an interventional approach using ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction-mediated delivery of phosphorothioated TRAF3IP2 antisense oligonucleotides into the LV in a clinically relevant time frame significantly inhibits TRAF3IP2 expression and myocardial injury in wild type mice post-I/R. Furthermore, ameliorating myocardial damage by targeting TRAF3IP2 appears to be more effective to inhibiting its downstream signaling intermediates NF-κB and JNK. Therefore, TRAF3IP2 could be a potential therapeutic target in ischemic heart disease.

Exercise Training Attenuates Upregulation of p47(phox) and p67(phox) in Hearts of Diabetic Rats. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2016; 2016:5868913.

Abstract
Exercise training (ExT) is currently being used as a nonpharmacological strategy to improve cardiac function in diabetic patients. However, the molecular mechanism(s) underlying its beneficial effects remains poorly understood. Oxidative stress is known to play a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy and one of the enzyme systems that produce reactive oxygen species is NADH/NADPH oxidase. The goal of this study was to investigate the effect of streptozotocin- (STZ-) induced diabetes on expression of p47(phox) and p67(phox), key regulatory subunits of NADPH oxidase, in cardiac tissues and determine whether ExT can attenuate these changes. Four weeks after STZ treatment, expression of p47(phox) and p67(phox) increased 2.3-fold and 1.6-fold, respectively, in left ventricles of diabetic rats and these increases were attenuated with three weeks of ExT, initiated 1 week after onset of diabetes. In atrial tissues, there was increased expression of p47(phox) (74%), which was decreased by ExT in diabetic rats. Furthermore, increased collagen III levels in diabetic hearts (52%) were significantly reduced by ExT. Taken together, ExT attenuates the increased expression of p47(phox) and p67(phox) in the hearts of diabetic rats which could be an underlying mechanism for improving intracardiac matrix and thus cardiac function and prevent cardiac remodeling in diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
A key contributor to the pathophysiology of diabetic cardiomyopathy, mitochondrial superoxide can be adequately countered by Mn-superoxide dismutase, which constitutes the first line of defense against mitochondrial oxidative stress. Our group has recently synthesized low molecular weight SOD mimics, demonstrating superior protection against oxidative damages to kidney cells. In the current study, we sought to evaluate the protective effect of the SOD mimic ML1 against high glucose induced cardiomyopathy in diabetes. Mechanistic studies using rat cardiac myoblast H9c2 showed that ML1 markedly inhibited High Glucose (HG) induced cytotoxicity. This was associated with increased Mn-SOD expression along with decreased mitochondrial [Formula: see text], ONOO- and Ca2+ accumulation, unveiling its anti-oxidant potentials. ML1 also attenuated HG-induced loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) and release of cytochrome c, suggesting that ML1 effectuates its cytoprotective action via the preservation of mitochondrial function. In an ex-vivo model normal adult rat ventricular myocytes (ARVMs) were isolated and cultured in either normal glucose (5.5 mmol/l glucose) or HG (25.5 mmol/l glucose) conditions and the efficiency of ML-1 was analyzed by studying contractile function and calcium indices. Mechanical properties were assessed using a high-speed video-edge detection system, and intracellular Ca2+ transients were recorded in fura-2-loaded myocytes. Pretreatment of myocytes with ML1 (10 nM) ameliorated HG induced abnormalities in relaxation including depressed peak shortening, prolonged time to 90% relenghthening, and slower Ca2+ transient decay. Thus, ML1 exhibits significant cardio protection against oxidative damage, perhaps through its potent antioxidant action via activation of Mn-SOD.

Abstract
Background Ischemic postconditioning (IPost) is a method of protecting the heart against
ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. However, the effectiveness of IPost in cases of
ischemic heart disease accompanied by co-morbidities such as hypothyroidism
remains unclear. Objective The aim of this study was to determine the effect of IPost on myocardial IR injury
in hypothyroid male rats. Methods Propylthiouracil in drinking water (500 mg/L) was administered to male rats for 21
days to induce hypothyroidism. The hearts from control and hypothyroid rats were
perfused in a Langendorff apparatus and exposed to 30 min of global ischemia,
followed by 120 min of reperfusion. IPost was induced immediately following
ischemia. Results Hypothyroidism and IPost significantly improved the left ventricular developed
pressure (LVDP) and peak rates of positive and negative changes in left
ventricular pressure (±dp/dt) during reperfusion in control rats (p < 0.05).
However, IPost had no add-on effect on the recovery of LVDP and ±dp/dt in
hypothyroid rats. Furthermore, hypothyroidism significantly decreased the basal NO
metabolite (NOx) levels of the serum (72.5 ± 4.2 vs. 102.8 ± 3.7
μmol/L; p < 0.05) and heart (7.9 ± 1.6 vs. 18.8 ± 3.2 μmol/L;
p < 0.05). Heart NOx concentration in the hypothyroid groups did not
change after IR and IPost, whereas these were significantly (p < 0.05) higher
and lower after IR and IPost, respectively, in the control groups. Conclusion Hypothyroidism protects the heart from IR injury, which may be due to a decrease
in basal nitric oxide (NO) levels in the serum and heart and a decrease in NO
after IR. IPost did not decrease the NO level and did not provide further
cardioprotection in the hypothyroid group.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is defined as the deprivation of the myocardial tissue of oxygen and nutrients, resulting in the induction of inflammation and apoptosis of the cardiomyocytes. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a nuclear enzyme closely associated with MI, that can be activated by DNA damage. Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is a critical enzyme among the inflammatory cytokines. The present study aimed to investigate the underlying mechanism of the protective effects of PARP1 and iNOS inhibitor against MI, in rats. A total of 40 male Wistar rats were divided into four groups. The rats were anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital (50 mg/kg), and the left anterior descending coronary artery was occluded by ligation, using a 6-0 polypropylene monofilament suture, at the left atrial apex, in order to induce MI. The rats from each group received an abdominal injection of either dimethylsulfoxide (100 μl, for MI group); PARP-1 inhibitor, 3,4-dihydro-5-[4-(1-piperidinyl)butoxy]-1(2H)-isoquinolinone (DPQ; 10 mg/kg); or iNOS inhibitor, N-(1-naphthyl)ethylenediamine dihydrochloride (1400W; 10 mg/kg). The hearts were harvested from the rats after four weeks. Inhibition of PARP and iNOS activity improved heart function, as determined by serial echocardiography. The rate of apoptosis, as determined by a terminal deoxynucleotidyl-transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling assay, was reduced by 39.71 and 39.00% in the DPQ and 1400W groups, respectively, and this was accompanied by the downregulated expression of cleaved caspase-3 and PARP1. Effective inhibition of PARP and iNOS, by DPQ and 1400W, was detected by western blotting and immunofluorescence, and was shown to repress O2− and nitrotyrosine levels, following MI. The present study confirmed that inhibition of PARP1 and iNOS was able to protect against ischemic myocardial damage, by reducing the levels of apoptosis.

Abstract
Our goal herein has been to gain further insight into the parameters which control porphyrin therapeutic potential. Mn porphyrins (MnTnOct-2-PyP(5+), MnTnHexOE-2-PyP(5+), MnTE-2-PyPhP(5+), and MnTPhE-2-PyP(5+)) that bear the same positive charge and same number of carbon atoms at meso positions of porphyrin core were explored. The carbon atoms of their meso substituents are organized to form either linear or cyclic structures of vastly different redox properties, bulkiness, and lipophilicities. These Mn porphyrins were compared to frequently studied compounds, MnTE-2-PyP(5+), MnTE-3-PyP(5+), and MnTBAP(3-). All Mn(III) porphyrins (MnPs) have metal-centered reduction potential, E1/2 for Mn(III)P/Mn(II)P redox couple, ranging from -194 to +340 mV versus NHE, log kcat(O2(•-)) from 3.16 to 7.92, and log kred(ONOO(-)) from 5.02 to 7.53. The lipophilicity, expressed as partition between n-octanol and water, log POW, was in the range -1.67 to -7.67. The therapeutic potential of MnPs was assessed via: (i) in vitro ability to prevent spontaneous lipid peroxidation in rat brain homogenate as assessed by malondialdehyde levels; (ii) in vivo O2(•-) specific assay to measure the efficacy in protecting the aerobic growth of SOD-deficient Saccharomyces cerevisiae; and (iii) aqueous solution chemistry to measure the reactivity toward major in vivo endogenous antioxidant, ascorbate. Under the conditions of lipid peroxidation assay, the transport across the cellular membranes, and in turn shape and size of molecule, played no significant role. Those MnPs of E1/2 ∼ +300 mV were the most efficacious, significantly inhibiting lipid peroxidation in 0.5-10 μM range. At up to 200 μM, MnTBAP(3-) (E1/2 = -194 mV vs NHE) failed to inhibit lipid peroxidation, while MnTE-2-PyPhP(5+) with 129 mV more positive E1/2 (-65 mV vs NHE) was fully efficacious at 50 μM. The E1/2 of Mn(III)P/Mn(II)P redox couple is proportional to the log kcat(O2(•-)), i.e., the SOD-like activity of MnPs. It is further proportional to kred(ONOO(-)) and the ability of MnPs to prevent lipid peroxidation. In turn, the inhibition of lipid peroxidation by MnPs is also proportional to their SOD-like activity. In an in vivo S. cerevisiae assay, however, while E1/2 predominates, lipophilicity significantly affects the efficacy of MnPs. MnPs of similar log POW and E1/2, that have linear alkyl or alkoxyalkyl pyridyl substituents, distribute more easily within a cell and in turn provide higher protection to S. cerevisiae in comparison to MnP with bulky cyclic substituents. The bell-shape curve, with MnTE-2-PyP(5+) exhibiting the highest ability to catalyze ascorbate oxidation, has been established and discussed. Our data support the notion that the SOD-like activity of MnPs parallels their therapeutic potential, though species other than O2(•-), such as peroxynitrite, H2O2, lipid reactive species, and cellular reductants, may be involved in their mode(s) of action(s).

Abstract
Herein we have demonstrated that both superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimic, cationic Mn(III) meso-tetrakis(N-n-hexylpyridinium-2-yl)porphyrin (MnTnHex-2-PyP(5+)), and non-SOD mimic, anionic Mn(III) meso-tetrakis(4-carboxylatophenyl)porphyrin (MnTBAP(3-)), protect against oxidative stress caused by spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion via suppression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pro-inflammatory pathways. Earlier reports showed that Mn(III) N-alkylpyridylporphyrins were able to prevent the DNA binding of NF-κB in an aqueous system, whereas MnTBAP(3-) was not. Here, for the first time, in a complex in vivo system-animal model of spinal cord injury-a similar impact of MnTBAP(3-), at a dose identical to that of MnTnHex-2-PyP(5+), was demonstrated in NF-κB downregulation. Rats were treated subcutaneously at 1.5 mg/kg starting at 30 min before ischemia/reperfusion, and then every 12 h afterward for either 48 h or 7 days. The anti-inflammatory effects of both Mn porphyrins (MnPs) were demonstrated in the spinal cord tissue at both 48 h and 7 days. The downregulation of NF-κB, a major pro-inflammatory signaling protein regulating astrocyte activation, was detected and found to correlate well with the suppression of astrogliosis (as glial fibrillary acidic protein) by both MnPs. The markers of oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation and protein carbonyl formation, were significantly reduced by MnPs. The favorable impact of both MnPs on motor neurons (Tarlov score and inclined plane test) was assessed. No major changes in glutathione peroxidase- and SOD-like activities were demonstrated, which implies that none of the MnPs acted as SOD mimic. Increasing amount of data on the reactivity of MnTBAP(3-) with reactive nitrogen species (RNS) (.NO/HNO/ONOO(-)) suggests that RNS/MnTBAP(3-)-driven modification of NF-κB protein cysteines may be involved in its therapeutic effects. This differs from the therapeutic efficacy of MnTnHex-2-PyP(5+) which presumably occurs via reactive oxygen species and relates to NF-κB thiol oxidation; the role of RNS cannot be excluded.

Abstract
The present study was designed to evaluate possible protective effects of purified histaminase from Lathyrus sativus L. seedling on the myocardial injuries upon isoprenaline-induced myocardial infarction in rats. In this regard, blood histamine concentration, creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) activity, antioxidant status, and histopathological changes of the hearts were measured. A total of 40 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into five equal groups and treated in the following order: control (normal saline), isoprenaline (isoproterenol 110 mg/kg BW), Isopren.-H1 (isoprenaline plus histaminase 80 U/kg BW), Isopren.-H2 (isoprenaline plus histaminase 120 U/kg BW), and Isopren.-H3 (isoprenaline plus histaminase 160 U/kg BW). Myocardial infarction was manifested by a significant elevation in the level of CK-MB and histopathological findings in isoprenaline group when compared to controls. In contrast, histaminase pretreatment at dose of 160 U/kg prevented isoprenaline-induced histamine release and significantly decreased CK-MB activity as well as histopathological changes in Isopren.-H3 group. A significant increase in the catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities was also observed by histaminase treatment in Isopren.-H2 and Isopren.-H3 groups. Although the activity of glutathione peroxidase (GPx) increased significantly to suppress oxidative stress in isoprenaline group, it was not able to prevent lipid peroxidation (as shown by TBARS concentration) in the heart of rats. In conclusion, the plant-originated histaminase presented as a promising enzyme with antioxidant properties against histamine release and myocardial infarction in rats, and it seems be a suitable therapeutic agent for future clinical trials in humans.

Abstract
The origins of the hydralazine/isosorbide dinitrate (H+ISDN) combination therapy are rooted in the first large-scale clinical trial in heart failure: V-HeFT I. Initially utilized for the balanced vasodilatory properties of each drug, we now know there is "more to the story." In fact, the maintenance of the nitroso-redox balance may be the true mechanism of benefit. Since the publication of V-HeFT I 30 years ago, H+ISDN has been the subject of much discussion and debate. Regardless of the many controversies surrounding H+ISDN, one thing is clear: therapy is underutilized and many patients who could benefit never receive the drugs. Ongoing physician and patient education are mandatory to improve the rates of H+ISDN use.

Abstract
Diabetes is a recognized risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and heart failure. Diabetic cardiovascular dysfunction also underscores the development of diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy and neuropathy. Despite the broad availability of antidiabetic therapy, glycemic control still remains a major challenge in the management of diabetic patients. Hyperglycemia triggers formation of advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs), activates protein kinase C, enhances polyol pathway, glucose autoxidation, which coupled with elevated levels of free fatty acids, and leptin have been implicated in increased generation of superoxide anion by mitochondria, NADPH oxidases and xanthine oxidoreductase in diabetic vasculature and myocardium. Superoxide anion interacts with nitric oxide forming the potent toxin peroxynitrite via diffusion limited reaction, which in concert with other oxidants triggers activation of stress kinases, endoplasmic reticulum stress, mitochondrial and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1-dependent cell death, dysregulates autophagy/mitophagy, inactivates key proteins involved in myocardial calcium handling/contractility and antioxidant defense, activates matrix metalloproteinases and redox-dependent pro-inflammatory transcription factors (e.g. nuclear factor kappaB) promoting inflammation, AGEs formation, eventually culminating in myocardial dysfunction, remodeling and heart failure. Understanding the complex interplay of oxidative/nitrosative stress with pro-inflammatory, metabolic and cell death pathways is critical to devise novel targeted therapies for diabetic cardiomyopathy, which will be overviewed in this brief synopsis. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Autophagy and protein quality control in cardiometabolic diseases.

Therapeutic hypercapnia prevents inhaled nitric oxide-induced right-ventricular systolic dysfunction in juvenile rats. Free Radic Biol Med 2014; 69:35-49.

Abstract
Chronic pulmonary hypertension in the neonate and infant frequently presents with right-ventricular (RV) failure. Current clinical management may include protracted treatment with inhaled nitric oxide (iNO), with the goal of reducing RV afterload. We have previously reported that prolonged exposure to iNO causes RV systolic dysfunction in the chronic hypoxia-exposed juvenile rat, which was prevented by a peroxynitrite decomposition catalyst. Given that inhalation of CO2 (therapeutic hypercapnia) may limit oxidative stress and upregulated cytokine expression in the lung and other organs, we hypothesized that therapeutic hypercapnia would attenuate cytokine-mediated nitric oxide synthase (NOS) upregulation, thus limiting peroxynitrite generation. Sprague-Dawley rat pups were exposed to chronic hypoxia (13% O2) from postnatal day 1 to 21, while receiving iNO (20 ppm) from day 14 to 21, with or without therapeutic hypercapnia (10% CO2). Therapeutic hypercapnia completely normalized RV systolic function, RV hypertrophy, and remodeling of pulmonary resistance arteries in animals exposed to iNO. Inhaled nitric oxide-mediated increases in RV peroxynitrite, apoptosis, and contents of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1α, and NOS-2 were all attenuated by therapeutic hypercapnia. Inhibition of NOS-2 activity with 1400 W (1 mg/kg/day) prevented iNO-mediated upregulation of peroxynitrite and led to improved RV systolic function. Blockade of IL-1 receptor signaling with anakinra (500 mg/kg/day) decreased NOS-2 content and had similar effects compared to NOS-2 inhibition on iNO-mediated effects, whereas blockade of TNF-α signaling with etanercept (0.4 mg/kg on alternate days) had no effects on these parameters. We conclude that therapeutic hypercapnia prevents the adverse effects of sustained exposure to iNO on RV systolic function by limiting IL-1-mediated NOS-2 upregulation and consequent nitration. Therapeutic hypercapnia also acts synergistically with iNO in normalizing RV hypertrophy, vascular remodeling, and raised pulmonary vascular resistance secondary to chronic hypoxia.

Abstract
Glutathione (GSH) protects cells against oxidative stress by playing an antioxidant role. Protecting brain endothelial cells under oxidative stress is key to treating cerebrovascular diseases and neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease and Huntington's disease. In present study, we investigated the protective effect of GSH on brain endothelial cells against hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). We showed that GSH attenuates H2O2-induced production of nitric oxide (NO), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and 8-Oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), an oxidized form of deoxiguanosine. GSH also prevents H2O2-induced reduction of tight junction proteins. Finally, GSH increases the level of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and activates Nrf2-mediated signaling pathways. Thus, GSH is a promising target to protect brain endothelial cells in conditions of brain injury and disease.

Abstract
Oxidative and nitrative stress is a well-known phenomenon in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. The purpose of this work is to study the role of two metalloporphyrins (FeTMPyP and MnTBAP), water soluble complexes, in cisplatin-induced renal damage and their ability to scavenge peroxynitrite. In cisplatin-induced nephropathy study in mice, renal nitrative stress was evident by the increase in protein nitration. Cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity was also evident by the histological damage from the loss of the proximal tubular brush border, blebbing of apical membranes, tubular epithelial cell detachment from the basement membrane, or intra-luminal aggregation of cells and proteins and by the increase in blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine. Cisplatin-induced apoptosis and cell death as shown by Caspase 3 assessments, TUNEL staining and DNA fragmentation Cisplatin-induced nitrative stress, apoptosis and nephrotoxicity were attenuated by both metalloporphyrins. Heme oxygenase (HO-1) also plays a critical role in metalloporphyrin-mediated protection of cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. It is evident that nitrative stress plays a critical role in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity in mice. Our data suggest that peroxynitrite is involved, at least in part, in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity and protein nitration and cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity can be prevented with the use of metalloporphyrins.

Abstract
Infectious agents including viruses can infect the heart muscle, resulting in the development of heart inflammation called myocarditis. Chronic myocarditis can lead to dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). DCM develops from the extensive extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling caused by myocarditis and may result in heart failure. Epidemiological data for viral myocarditis has long suggested a worse pathology in males, with more recent data demonstrating sex-dependent pathogenesis in DCM as well. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), long known modulators of the extracellular matrix, have important roles in mediating heart inflammation and remodeling during disease and in convalescence. This ability of MMPs to control both the inflammatory response and ECM remodeling during myocarditis makes them potential drug targets. In this review, we analyze the role of MMPs in mediating myocarditis/DCM disease progression, their sex-dependent expression, and their potential as drug targets during viral myocarditis and DCM.

Abstract
Adaptive mechanisms involving upregulation of cytoprotective genes under the control of transcription factors such as Nrf2 exist to protect cells from permanent damage and dysfunction under stress conditions. Here we explore of the hypothesis that Nrf2 activation by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species modulates cytotoxicity during hypoxia (H) with and without reoxygenation (H/R) in H9C2 cardiomyoblasts. Using MnTBap as a cell permeable superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetic and peroxynitrite scavenger and L-NAME as an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), we have shown that MnTBap inhibited the cytotoxic effects of hypoxic stress with and without reoxygenation. However, L-NAME only afforded protection during H. Under reoxygenation, conditions, cytotoxicity was increased by the presence of L-NAME. Nrf2 activation was inhibited independently by MnTBap and L-NAME under H and H/R. The increased cytotoxicity and inhibition of Nrf2 activation by the presence of L-NAME during reoxygenation suggests that NOS activity plays an important role in cell survival at least in part via Nrf2-independent pathways. In contrast, O2−• scavenging by MnTBap prevented both toxicity and Nrf2 activation during H and H/R implying that toxicity is largely dependent on O2−•.To confirm the importance of Nrf2 for myoblast metabolism, Nrf2 knockdown with siRNA reduced cell survival by 50% during 4 h hypoxia with and without 2 h of reoxygenation and although cellular glutathione (GSH) was depleted during H and H/R, GSH loss was not exacerbated by Nrf2 knockdown. These data support distinctive roles for ROS and RNS during H and H/R for Nrf2 induction which are important for survival independently of GSH salvage. Cardiomyoblast toxicity during hypoxia is dependent on O2−• and NO•. Nrf2 activation is important for cardiomyoblast survival during hypoxia or hypoxia/reoxygenation, but, restoration of GSH is not required. NOS activity is essential for the adaptation of cardiomyoblasts to hypoxia/reoxygenation but survival may be independent of Nrf2.

PLoS One 2013; 8:e70331. [PMID: 23875026 PMCID: PMC3707883 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0070331] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2013] [Accepted: 06/23/2013] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Myocardial ischemic postconditioning (PosC) describes an acquired resistance to lethal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury afforded by brief episodes of I/R applied immediately after the ischemic insult. Cardioprotection is conveyed by parallel signaling pathways converging to prevent mitochondria permeability transition. Recent observations indicated that PostC is associated with free radicals generation, including nitric oxide (NO.) and superoxide (O2.-), and that cardioprotection is abrogated by antioxidants. Since NO. And O2. - react to form peroxynitrite, we hypothesized that postC might trigger the formation of peroxyntrite to promote cardioprotection in vivo. Rats were exposed to 45 min of myocardial ischemia followed by 3h reperfusion. PostC (3 cycles of 30 seconds ischemia/30 seconds reperfusion) was applied at the end of index ischemia. In a subgroup of rats, the peroxynitrite decomposition catalyst 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulphonatophenyl) porphyrinato iron (FeTPPS) was given intravenously (10 mg/kg-1) 5 minutes before PostC. Myocardial nitrotyrosine was determined as an index of peroxynitrite formation. Infarct size (colorimetric technique and plasma creatine kinase-CK-levels) and left ventricle (LV) function (micro-tip pressure transducer), were determined. A significant generation of 3-nitrotyrosine was detected just after the PostC manoeuvre. PostC resulted in a marked reduction of infarct size, CK release and LV systolic dysfunction. Treatment with FeTPPS before PostC abrogated the beneficial effects of PostC on myocardial infarct size and LV function. Thus, peroxynitrite formed in the myocardium during PostC induces cardioprotective mechanisms improving both structural and functional integrity of the left ventricle exposed to ischemia and reperfusion in vivo.

Abstract
Myocardial ischemia induces 5-lipoxygenase (LOX) translocation and leukotriene production in the heart. Leukotrienes increase inflammatory responses aggravating, thereby, ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. This study aimed to investigate whether the selective 5-LOX inhibitor 11-keto-β-boswellic acid (11-keto BA), in three different dose levels, exert a protective effect on myocardial I/R injury in an in vivo rat heart model. Sixty male Wister rats were used in this study and divided into five equal groups (n=12): GP1, sham-operated receiving normal saline; Gp 2, rats were subjected to 45 min left anterior descending coronary artery ligation followed by 4 h reperfusion to serve as I/R group. Gps 3-5 received 11-keto BA in doses 250, 500, 1,000 mg/kg, respectively, via an oral gavage for 7 days then were exposed to I/R. I/R injury induced a significant elevation in myeloperoxidase activity and gene expression of intracellular adhesion molecules, cyclooxygenase-2, 5-lipooxygenasae, nuclear factor kappa-beta, tumor necrosis factor alpha, nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2, and hemeoxygenease-1 consequently with reduction in glutathione peroxidase in heart tissues. Furthermore, immunohistochemical examination of the heart tissues showed positive immuostaining for both 3-nitrotyrosine and caspase-3 with DNA-ladder formation in all diseased rats. 11-keto BA in three dose levels exerted dose dependent cardioprotective effect manifested by dose-dependent reduction in serum lactate dehydrogenase and infract size through mechanisms related to enhancement of antioxidant capacity and prevention of inflammatory cascades.

Abstract
To investigate signal transduction pathway of cell death regulated by a tumor suppressor after oxidative stress, cardiomyoblasts were virally transfected with BTG2(/TIS21/PC3) (BTG2) and subsequently treated with H2O2. Heart muscle rarely expresses BTG2 unless oxidative stress occurs, however, ischemia induced BTG2 expression and necrosis, not apoptosis, of cardiomyoblasts. BTG2-expressioning cardiomyblasts showed impaired recoveries of survival kinases, Akt and Erk, thus sustaining GSK-3β activity in 30 min of H2O2 exposure, in contrast to their rapid recoveries in LacZ control. The phenomenon was accompanied by the failure of ATP regeneration and the sustained activation of AMPK in the BTG2 expresser. Furthermore, H2O2 treatment markedly induced BTG2 translocation from nuclei to mitochondria along with cell death by cyclophilin D activation and mPTP opening. Exogenous and endogenous effect of BTG2 was confirmed by chemical inhibitors and BTG2-KO-MEF, respectively. Here, we suggest tumor suppressor, BTG2, as one of the regulators of necrosis in myocardium via inhibiting Akt/Erk, but activating GSK3β and cyclophilin D, which resulted in mPTP opening in response to H2O2.

Abstract
CONTEXT Peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) formation triggers oxidative/nitrative stress and contributes to exacerbated myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury. Catalpol, an iridoid glycoside, abundantly found in the roots of Rehmannia glutinosa L. that is included in the family Phrymaceae in the order Lamiales, endemic to China, was found to have neuroprotective effects. However, the effect of catalpol on MI/R injury has not been identified. OBJECTIVE This study investigated whether catalpol attenuates oxidative/nitrative stress in acute MI/R. MATERIALS AND METHODS Adult male rats were subjected to 30 min of myocardial ischemia and 3 h of reperfusion and were treated with saline, catalpol (5 mg/kg, i.p., 5 min before reperfusion) or catalpol plus wortmannin (15 µg/kg intraperitoneally injected 15 min before reperfusion). RESULTS Pretreatment with catalpol significantly improved cardiac functions, reduced myocardial infarction, apoptosis and necrosis of cardiomyocytes after MI/R (all p < 0.05). Meanwhile, ONOO(-) formation was markedly reduced after catalpol treatment (3.01 ± 0.22 vs. 4.66 ± 0.53 pmol/mg protein in vehicle, p < 0.05). In addition, catalpol increased Akt and endothelial nitric oxide synthase phosphorylation, nitric oxide (NO) production, anti-oxidant capacity and reduced MI/R-induced inducible nitric oxide synthase expression and superoxide anion (·O(2)(-)) production in I/R hearts. PI3K inhibitor wortmannin not only blocked catalpol-induced Akt activation, but also attenuated all the beneficial effects of catalpol. Suppression of ONOO(-) formation by either catalpol or an ONOO(-) scavenger uric acid (5 mg/kg) reduced myocardial infarct size in MI/R rats. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION In conclusion, catalpol affords cardioprotection against MI/R insult by attenuating ONOO(-) formation, which is attributable to increased physiological NO and decreased ·O(2)(-) production.
