THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 862:160867. [PMID: 36521626 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.160867] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2022] [Revised: 12/07/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Human daily activities such as cooking, and cleaning can affect the indoor air quality by releasing primary emitted volatile organic compounds (VOCs), as well as by the secondary product compounds formed through reactions with ozone (O3) and hydroxyl radicals (OH). However, our knowledge about the formation processes of the secondary VOCs is still incomplete. We performed real-time measurements of primary VOCs released by commercial floor-cleaning detergent and the secondary product compounds formed by heterogeneous reaction of O3 with the constituents of the cleaning agent by use of high-resolution mass spectrometry. We measured the uptake coefficients of O3 on the cleaning detergent at different relative humidities in dark and under different light intensities (320 nm < λ < 400 nm) relevant for the indoor environment. On the basis of the detected compounds we developed tentative reaction mechanisms describing the formation of the secondary VOCs. Intriguingly, under light irradiation the formation of valeraldehyde was observed based on the photosensitized chemistry of acetophenone which is a constituent of the cleaning agent. Finally, we modeled the observed mixing ratios of three aldehydes, glyoxal, methylglyoxal, and 4-oxopentanal with respect to real-life indoor environment. The results suggest that secondary VOCs initiated by ozone chemistry can additionally impact the indoor air pollution.

Relationship between the Structure and Chaperone Activity of Human αA-Crystallin after Its Modification with Diabetes-Associated Oxidative Agents and Protective Role of Antioxidant Compounds. BIOCHEMISTRY. BIOKHIMIIA 2022; 87:91-105.

Abstract
The study was aimed to evaluate the impact of peroxynitrite (PON, oxidative stress agent in diabetes), methylglyoxal (MGO, diabetes-associated reactive carbonyl compound), and their simultaneous application on the structural and functional features of human αA-crystallin (αA-Cry) using various spectroscopy techniques. Additionally, the surface tension and oligomer size distribution of the treated and untreated protein were tested using tensiometric analysis and dynamic light scattering, respectively. Our results indicated that the reaction of PON and MGO with human αA-Cry leads to the formation of new chromophores, alterations in the secondary to quaternary protein structure, reduction in the size of protein oligomers, and significant enhancement in the chaperone activity of αA-Cry. To reverse the effects of the tested compounds, ascorbic acid and glutathione (main components of lens antioxidant defense system) were applied. As expected, the two antioxidant compounds significantly prevented formation of high molecular weight aggregates of αA-Cry (according to SDS-PAGE). Our results suggest that the lens antioxidant defense system, in particular, glutathione, may provide a strong protection against rapid incidence and progression of diabetic cataract by preventing the destructive reactions of highly reactive DM-associated metabolites.

Glyoxalase 1 expression is downregulated in preimplantation blastocysts of diabetic rabbits. Reprod Domest Anim 2019; 54 Suppl 3:4-11.

Abstract
In a diabetic pregnancy, an altered maternal metabolism led to increased formation of reactive α-dicarbonyls such as glyoxal (GO) and methylglyoxal (MGO) in the reproductive organs and embryos. The enzyme glyoxalase (GLO) 1 detoxifies reactive α-dicarbonyls thus protecting cells against malfunction or modifications of proteins by advanced glycated end products (AGEs). The aim of this study was to analyse the influence of a maternal insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDD) on GLO1 expression and activity in preimplantation embryos in vivo and human trophoblast cells (Ac-1M88) in vitro. Maternal diabetes was induced in female rabbits by alloxan before conception and maintained during the preimplantation period. GLO1 expression and activity were investigated in 6-day-old blastocysts from healthy and diabetic rabbits. Furthermore, blastocysts and human trophoblast cells were exposed in vitro to hyperglycaemia, GO and MGO and analysed for GLO1 expression and activity. During gastrulation, GLO1 was expressed in all compartments of the rabbit blastocyst. Maternal diabetes decreased embryonic GLO1 protein amount by approx. 30 per cent whereas the enzymatic activity remained unchanged, indicating that the specific GLO1 activity increases along with metabolic changes. In in vitro cultured embryos, neither hyperglycaemia nor MGO and GO had an effect on GLO1 protein amount. In human trophoblast cells, a stimulating effect on the GLO1 expression was shown in the highest GO concentration, only. Our data show that maternal diabetes mellitus affects the specific activity of GLO1, indicating that GLO1 was post-translationally modified due to changes in metabolic processes in the preimplantation embryos.

Abstract
Although methylglyoxal (MGO) has emerged as key mediator of diabetic microvascular complications, the influence of MGO on the vascular transcriptome has not thoroughly been assessed. Since diabetes is associated with low grade inflammation causing sustained nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) activation, the current study addressed 1) to what extent MGO changes the transcriptome of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) exposed to an inflammatory milieu, 2) what are the dominant pathways by which these changes occur and 3) to what extent is this affected by carnosine, a putative scavenger of MGO. Microarray analysis revealed that exposure of HUVECs to high MGO concentrations significantly changes gene expression, characterized by prominent down-regulation of cell cycle associated genes and up-regulation of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). KEGG-based pathway analysis identified six significantly enriched pathways of which the p53 pathway was the most affected. No significant enrichment of inflammatory pathways was found, yet, MGO did inhibit VCAM-1 expression in Western blot analysis. Carnosine significantly counteracted MGO-mediated changes in a subset of differentially expressed genes. Collectively, our results suggest that MGO initiates distinct transcriptional changes in cell cycle/apoptosis genes, which may explain MGO toxicity at high concentrations. MGO did not augment TNF-α induced inflammation.

Abstract
One hallmark of molecular aging is glycation, better known as formation of so-called advanced glycation end products (AGEs), where reactive carbonyls react with amino-groups of proteins. AGEs accumulate over time and are responsible for various age-dependent diseases and impairments. Two very potent dicarbonyls to generate AGEs are glyoxal (GO) and methylglyoxal (MGO). The plasma level of such dicarbonyls is higher in aging and age-related diseases. Natural killer (NK) cells are cells of the innate immune system and provide a major defense against tumor cells and virus infected cells. They are able to kill modified or infected cells and produce different cytokines to modulate the function of other immune cells. Here we investigated the effect of GO- and MGO-induced glycation on the function of NK cells. Using the human NK cell line NK-92, we could demonstrate that both GO and MGO lead to glycation of cellular proteins, but that MGO interferes much stronger with NK cell function (cytotoxicity) than GO. In addition, glycation of NK cell targets, such as K562 tumor cells, also interferes with their lysis by NK cells. From this data we conclude that glycation acts negatively on NK cells function and reduces their cytotoxic potential towards tumor cells.

Abstract
SCOPE Buckwheat (BW) consumption has been associated with a broad range of health benefits: antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticancer. These beneficial effects have been partially related to the presence of flavonoids. However, some of these compounds (i.e., rutin and quercetin) are metabolized in the gastrointestinal tract generating derived phenolic metabolites. In this study, we investigated the biological activity of rutin (Ru), quercetin (Q) an their derived phenolic metabolites 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (3,4-DHPAA), 3-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (3-HPAA), and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenylacetic acid (homovanillic acid, HVA). METHODS AND RESULTS Q showed the highest antioxidant and reducing activity, and Ru the maximum chelating activity (85.33%). Antioxidant activity of 3,4-DHPAA was 5-fold higher than that of HVA, whereas their reducing activity was similar. The formation of methylglyoxal (MGO)-BSA and glucose-BSA (advanced glycation end products) was inhibited by Ru (98.5 and 92.7%), Q (95.6 and 89.1%) and 3,4-DHPPA (84.4.6 and 77.5%). Furthermore, Q (10-50 μM) and Ru (1-50 μM) downregulated the release of PGE2 , IL-8 and MCP-1, molecules involved in the inflammatory response, in IL1β-inflamed myofibroblasts of colon CCD-18Co. CONCLUSION This study suggests that BW phytochemicals and their phenolic metabolites may be responsible for the beneficial effects against chronic diseases attributed to BW consumption.

Abstract
In diabetics, methylglyoxal (MG), a glucose-derived metabolite, plays a noxious role by inducing oxidative stress, which causes and exacerbates a series of complications including low-turnover osteoporosis. In the present study, while MG treatment of mouse bone marrow stroma-derived ST2 cells rapidly suppressed the expression of osteotrophic Wnt-targeted genes, including that of osteoprotegerin (OPG, a decoy receptor of the receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL)), it significantly enhanced that of secreted Frizzled-related protein 4 (sFRP-4, a soluble inhibitor of Wnts). On the assumption that upregulated sFRP-4 is a trigger that downregulates Wnt-related genes, we sought out the molecular mechanism whereby oxidative stress enhanced the sFRP-4 gene. Sodium bisulfite sequencing revealed that the sFRP-4 gene was highly methylated around the sFRP-4 gene basic promoter region, but was not altered by MG treatment. Electrophoretic gel motility shift assay showed that two continuous CpG loci located five bases upstream of the TATA-box were, when methylated, a target of methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) that was sequestered upon induction of 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine, a biomarker of oxidative damage to DNA. These in vitro data suggest that MG-derived oxidative stress (not CpG demethylation) epigenetically and rapidly derepress sFRP-4 gene expression. We speculate that under persistent oxidative stress, as in diabetes and during aging, osteopenia and ultimately low-turnover osteoporosis become evident partly due to osteoblastic inactivation by suppressed Wnt signaling of mainly canonical pathways through the derepression of sFRP-4 gene expression.

Abstract
Glyoxal (GO), a highly reactive metabolite of glucose, is associated with diabetic vascular complications via the formation of advanced glycation end-products. Considering its ability to react with proteins' amino acids and its crosslinking potential, we suggest that GO affects cellular mechanical functions such as contractility. Therefore, we tested the effects of GO on cellular contractile response following AngII stimulation of human embryonic kidney cells over-expressing the AT1 receptor (HEK 293 AT1aR). Prior to cell stimulation with AngII, cells exposed to GO exhibited carboxymethyllysine-adduct formation and an increase in cellular stiffness, which could be prevented by pre-treatment with aminoguanidine. The time-dependent cellular contractile response to AngII was measured by monitoring cell membrane displacement by atomic force atomic force microscopy (AFM) and by quantifying myosin light chain phosphorylation (p-MLC) via immunoblotting. Interestingly, short-term GO exposure increased by 2.6 times the amplitude of cell contraction induced by AngII and this was also associated with a sustained rise in p-MLC. This increased response to AngII induced by GO appears to be linked to its glycation potential, as aminoguanidine pre-treatment prevented this increased cellular mechanical response. Our results also suggest that GO could have an impact on ROCK activity, as ROCK inhibition with Y-27632 blocked the enhanced contractile response (p = 0.011) measured under GO conditions. Together, these results indicate that GO enhances the cellular response to AngII and modifies cellular mechanical properties via a mechanism that relies on its glycation potential and on the activation of the ROCK-dependent pathway.

Abstract
Methylglyoxal (MG) is a reactive dicarbonyl metabolite formed during glucose, protein and fatty acid metabolism. In hyperglycaemic conditions, increased MG level has been linked to the development of diabetes and its vascular complications at the macrovascular and microvascular levels where inflammation plays a role. To study the mechanism of MG-induced inflammation in vivo, we applied MG locally to healthy mice and used intravital microscopy to investigate the role of endothelial cell adhesion molecules in MG-induced leucocyte recruitment in cremasteric microvasculature. Administration of MG (25 and 50 mg/kg) to the tissue dose-dependently induced leucocyte recruitment at 4.0-5.5 hr, with 84-92% recruited cells being neutrophils. Such MG treatment up-regulated the expression of endothelial cell adhesion molecules P-selectin, E-selectin, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, but not vascular cell adhesion molecule-1. Activation of the nuclear factor-κB signalling pathway contributed to MG-induced up-regulation of these adhesion molecules and leucocyte recruitment. The role of the up-regulated endothelial cell adhesion molecules in MG-induced leucocyte recruitment was determined by applying specific functional blocking antibodies to MG-treated animals and observing changes in leucocyte recruitment parameters. Our data demonstrate that the up-regulation of P-selectin, E-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 contributes to the increased leucocyte rolling flux, reduced leucocyte rolling velocity, and increased leucocyte adhesion, respectively. Our results reveal the role of endothelial cell adhesion molecules in MG-induced leucocyte recruitment in microvasculature, an inflammatory condition related to diabetic vascular complications.

Abstract
Recent observations on environment-linked control of genetically prescribed signaling systems for either cell activation or cell death have been reviewed with a focus on the regulation of activities of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs). The environment-linked redox reactions seem to primarily affect cell surface receptors and cell membrane lipid rafts, and they induce generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells. ROS thus generated might upregulate the catalytic activities of PTKs through inactivating protein tyrosine phosphatases that dephosphorylate and inactivate autophosphorylated PTKs. Recent evidence has, however, demonstrated that ROS could also directly oxidize SH groups of genetically conserved specific cysteines on PTKs, sometimes producing disulfide-bonded dimers of PTK proteins, either for upregulation or downregulation of their catalytic activities. The basic role of the redox reaction/covalent bond-mediated modification of protein tertiary structure-linked noncovalent bond-oriented signaling systems in living organisms is discussed.

Abstract
Glycation is a nonenzymatic condensation reaction between reducing sugars and amino groups of proteins that undergo rearrangements to stable ketoamines, leading to the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) including fluorescent (argpyrimidine) and nonfluorescent (N(epsilon)-carboxymethyllysine; CML) protein adducts and protein cross-links. AGEs are formed via protein glycation and correlate with processes resulting in aging and diabetes complications. Reactive carbonyl species such as glyoxal and methylglyoxal are ubiquitous by-products of cell metabolism that potently induce the formation of AGEs by nonenzymatic protein glycation and may achieve plasma concentrations of 0.3-1.5 micromol/L. In this in vitro study histone H1 glycation by glyoxal, methylglyoxal, or ADP-ribose was used to model nonoxidative protein glycation, permitting us to distinguish specific AGE inhibition from general antioxidant action. Rutin derivatives were tested as AGE inhibitors because rutin, a common dietary flavonoid that is consumed in fruits, vegetables, and plant-derived beverages, is metabolized by gut microflora to a range of phenolic compounds that are devoid of significant antioxidant activity and achieve blood concentrations in the mumol/L range. Our data show that in a 1:1 stoichiometry with glyoxal or methylglyoxal, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DHPAA) and 3,4-dihydroxytoluene (DHT) are powerful inhibitors of CML and argpyrimidine histone H1 adduct formation, respectively. Furthermore, when DHPAA and DHT were tested as inhibitors of histone H1 glycation by the powerful glycating agent ADP-ribose, they inhibited glycation as effectively as aminoguanidine. These results suggest that dietary flavonoids may serve as effective AGE inhibitors and suggest mechanisms whereby fruit- and vegetable-rich diets contribute to the prevention of processes resulting in aging and diabetes complications.

Abstract
Methylglyoxal (MGO) is an endogenous dicarbonyl compound that is highly produced in hyperglycemic conditions. It forms advanced glycation endproducts that are believed to contribute, as etiological factors, to the pathophysiology of diabetic complications. In addition, MGO suppresses cell viability through the induction of apoptosis in vitro. In this study, we have, for the first time, demonstrated the effect of MGO on the gp130 cytokine-induced signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) responses in RT4 schwannoma, PC12 pheochromocytoma and U87MG glioma cells. At dose that very mildly affects cell viability, MGO rapidly induces endocytotic degradation of gp130, which involves the di-leucine internalization motif in the cytoplasmic domain of gp130, without affecting other growth factor receptors. Concomitant inhibition of basal and interleukin-6-induced STAT3 activation was observed following pre-treatment with MGO. The inhibitory effect of MGO on the gp130/STAT3 signaling was prevented by the pre-treatment with an advanced glycation endproduct scavenger aminoguanidine. Finally, these deleterious effects of MGO on STAT3 signaling led to down-regulation of a STAT3 target gene, Bcl-2, and sensitized cellular toxicity induced by H(2)O(2) and etoposide. Our data indicate that MGO affects cell viability via desensitization of gp130/STAT3 signaling, which is the key signaling pathway for cell survival, and thereby promotes cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Methylglyoxal (MGO) is a reactive metabolite of glucose. Since the plasma concentration of MGO is increased in diabetic patients, MGO is implicated in diabetes-associated vascular endothelial cells (ECs) injury, which might be responsible for atherosclerosis. In the present study, we examined effects of treatment of human umbilical vein ECs with MGO on EC morphology and inflammatory responses. MGO (24 h) induced cytotoxic morphological changes in a concentration-dependent manner (0-420 microM). MGO induced mRNA and protein expression of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 in a concentration (0-420 microM)- and time (6-24 h)-dependent manner. COX-2 induction was associated with increased PGE(2) release. Acute treatment with MGO (20 min) induced concentration-dependent (0-420 microM) activation of JNK and p38 MAP kinase but not ERK or NF-kappaB. Both the JNK inhibitor SP600125 and the p38 inhibitor SB203580 prevented the MGO induction of COX-2. However, inhibiting JNK and p38 or COX-2 was ineffective to the morphological damage by MGO (420 microM, 24 h). EUK134, a synthetic combined superoxide dismutase/catalase mimetic, had no effect on MGO-induced COX-2. Present results indicated that MGO mediates JNK- and p38-dependent EC inflammatory responses, which might be independent of oxidative stress. On the other hand, MGO-induced morphological cell damage seems unlikely to be associated with COX-2-PGE(2).

Abstract
Protein carbonylation induced by reactive carbonyl species (RCS) generated by peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids plays a significant role in the etiology and/or progression of several human diseases, such as cardiovascular (e.g., atherosclerosis, long-term complications of diabetes) and neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and cerebral ischemia). Most of the biological effects of intermediate RCS, mainly alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes, di-aldehydes, and keto-aldehydes, are due to their capacity to react with the nucleophilic sites of proteins, forming advanced lipoxidation end-products (ALEs). Because of the emerging deleterious role of RCS/protein adducts in several human diseases, different potential therapeutic strategies have been developed in the last few years. This review sheds focus on fundamental studies on lipid-derived RCS generation, their biological effects, and their reactivity with proteins, with particular emphasis to 4-hydroxy-trans-2-nonenal (HNE)-, acrolein (ACR)-, malondialdehyde (MDA)-, and glyoxal (GO)-modified proteins. It also discusses the recently developed pharmacological approaches for the management of chronic diseases in which oxidative stress and RCS formation are massively involved. Inhibition of ALE formation, based on carbonyl-sequestering agents, seems to be the most promising pharmacological tool and is reviewed in detail.

Abstract
Nonenzymatic glycation is increased in diabetes and leads to elevated levels of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), which link hyperglycemia to the induction of insulin resistance. In hyperglycemic conditions, intracellularly formed alpha-ketoaldehydes, such as methylglyoxal, are an essential source of intracellular AGEs, and the abnormal accumulation of methylglyoxal is related to the development of diabetes complications in various tissues and organs. We have previously shown in skeletal muscle that AGEs induce insulin resistance at the level of metabolic responses. Therefore, it was important to extend our work to intermediates of the biosynthetic pathway leading to AGEs. Hence, we asked the question whether the reactive alpha-ketoaldehyde methylglyoxal has deleterious effects on insulin action similar to AGEs. We analyzed the impact of methylglyoxal on insulin-induced signaling in L6 muscle cells. We demonstrate that a short exposure to methylglyoxal induces an inhibition of insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of protein kinase B and extracellular-regulated kinase 1/2, without affecting insulin receptor tyrosine phosphorylation. Importantly, these deleterious effects of methylglyoxal are independent of reactive oxygen species produced by methylglyoxal but appear to be the direct consequence of an impairment of insulin-induced insulin receptor substrate-1 tyrosine phosphorylation subsequent to the binding of methylglyoxal to these proteins. Our data suggest that an increase in intracellular methylglyoxal content hampers a key molecule, thereby leading to inhibition of insulin-induced signaling. By such a mechanism, methylglyoxal may not only induce the debilitating complications of diabetes but may also contribute to the pathophysiology of diabetes in general.

Abstract
Nuclear DNA damage has been studied in detail, but much less is known concerning the occurrence and fate of nuclear protein damage. Glycoxidation, protein damage that results from a combination of protein glycation and oxidation, leads to the formation of protein-advanced glycation end products (AGE) of which N(epsilon)-carboxymethyllysine (CML) is a major AGE. We have used glyoxal, a product of environmental exposures that readily leads to the formation of CML, to study nuclear protein glycoxidation in HaCaT human keratinocytes. Glyoxal treatment that did not affect cell viability but inhibited cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner that led to accumulation of CML-modified histones. Modified histones were slowly degraded but persisted for more than 3 days following treatment. Preincubation of cells with a proteasome inhibitor following glyoxal treatment led to an increase in CML-modified histones. While glyoxal treatment resulted in a slight decrease in total cellular proteasome activity, a dose dependent increase of up to 4-fold in nuclear proteasome activity was observed. The increase in nuclear proteasome activity was due to both increased nuclear proteasome protein content and increased activity, neither of which were affected by cyclohexamide. The increase also was unaffected by inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases, which have been previously implicated in nuclear proteasome activation by oxidizing agents. Accumulation of CML-modified histones over time may lead to epigenetic changes that contribute to various pathologies including aging and cancer, and upregulation of nuclear proteasome activity under conditions of glyoxidative stress may function to limit such damage.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) play key roles in starting the signal transduction network for cellular development and functions. A number of both receptor-type and non-receptor-type PTKs, which are normally at a resting state, are initially activated in association with functions of the cell membrane and membrane rafts. Results of recent studies have suggested that these membrane-associated mechanisms for activation of PTKs consist of the two steps that are under redox control. The first step is activation of cell surface receptors through chemical crosslinkage or aggregation of receptors and membrane rafts, which leads to production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as second messengers of intracellular signal transduction. The second step involves chemical modification of PTKs at the highly conserved cysteine in the MXXCW motif as a global switch for starting the tyrosine phosphorylation-dependent local switch for activation of the catalytic activity of the enzyme.

Abstract
The abnormal accumulation of methylglyoxal (MG), a physiological glucose metabolite, is strongly related to the development of diabetic complications by affecting the metabolism and functions of organs and tissues. These disturbances could modify the cell response to hormones and growth factors, including insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-I). In this study, we investigated the effect of MG on IGF-I-induced cell proliferation and the mechanism of the effect in two cell lines, a human embryonic kidney cell line (HEK293), and a mouse fibroblast cell line (NIH3T3). MG rendered these cells resistant to the mitogenic action of IGF-I, and this was associated with stronger and prolonged activation of ERK and over-expression of P21(Waf1/Cip1). The synergistic effect of MG with IGF-I in activation of ERK was completely abolished by PD98059 but not by a specific PI3K inhibitor, LY294002, or a specific PKC inhibitor, bisindolylmaleimide. Blocking of Raf-1 activity by expression of a dominant negative form of Raf-1 did not reduce the enhancing effect of MG on IGF-I-induced activation of ERK. However, transfection of a catalytically inactive form of MEKK1 resulted in inactivation of the MG-induced activation of ERK and partial inhibition of the enhanced activation of ERK and over-expression of p21(Waf1/Cip1) induced by co-stimulation of MG and IGF-I. These results suggested that the alteration of intracellular milieu induced by MG through a MEKK1-mediated and PI3K/PKC/Raf-1-independent pathway resulted in the modification of cell response to IGF-I for p21(Waf1/Cip1)-mediated growth arrest, which may be one of the crucial mechanisms for MG to promote the development of chronic clinical complications in diabetes.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence suggests that the pathophysiology of diabetes is analogous to chronic inflammatory states. Circulating levels of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) are increased in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. TNFalpha plays an important role in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes. However, the reason for this increase remains unclear. Levels of the dicarbonyl methylglyoxal (MGO) are elevated in diabetic plasma and MGO-modified bovine serum albumin (MGO-BSA) can trigger cellular uptake of TNF. Therefore we tested the hypothesis that MGO-modified proteins may cause TNFalpha secretion in macrophage-like RAW 264.7 cells. Treatment of cells with MGO-BSA induced TNFalpha release in a dose-dependent manner. MGO-modified ribonuclease A and chicken egg ovalbumin had similar effects. Cotreatment of cells with antioxidant reagent N-acetylcysteine (NAC) inhibited MGO-BSA-induced TNFalpha secretion. MGO-BSA stimulated the simultaneous activation of p44/42 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. PD98059, a selective MEK inhibitor, inhibited MGO-BSA-induced TNFalpha release as well as ERK phosphorylation. Pretreatment of cells with NAC also resulted in inhibition of MGO-BSA-induced ERK phosphorylation. MGO-BSA induced dose-dependent NFkappaB activation as shown by electrophoresis mobility shift assay. The MGO-BSA-induced NFkappaB activation was prevented in the presence of PD98059, NAC, and parthenolide, a selective inhibitor of NFkappaB. Furthermore, the NFkappaB inhibitor parthenolide suppressed MGO-BSA-induced TNFalpha secretion. Confocal microscopy using dichlorofluorescein to demonstrate intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) showed that MGO-BSA produced more ROS compared with native BSA. MGO-BSA could also stimulate protein kinase C (PKC) translocation to the cell membrane, considered a key signaling pathway in diabetes. However, there was no evidence that PKC was involved in TNFalpha release based on inhibition by calphostin C and staurosporine. Our findings suggest that the presence of chronically elevated levels of MGO-modified bovine serum albumin may contribute to elevated levels of TNFalpha in diabetes.

Abstract
Formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) is considered a potential link between hyperglycemia and chronic diabetic complications, including disturbances in cell signaling. It was hypothesized that AGEs alter cell signaling by interfering with growth factor receptors. Therefore, we studied the effects of two AGE precursors, glyoxal (GO) and methylglyoxal (MGO), on the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling pathway in cultured cells. Both compounds prevented tyrosine autophosphorylation induced by epidermal growth factor (EGF) in a time- and dose-dependent manner as well as phospholipase Cgamma1 recruitment and subsequent activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases. AGE precursors inhibit EGF-induced EGFR autophosphorylation and tyrosine kinase activity in cell membranes and in EGFR immunoprecipitates. In addition, AGE precursors strongly inhibited cellular phosphotyrosine phosphatase activities and residual EGFR dephosphorylation. AGE precursors induced the formation of EGFR cross-links, as shown by the cross-reactivity of modified EGFR with an anti-N(epsilon)(carboxymethyl)lysine antibody, suggesting that altered EGFR signaling was related to carbonyl-amine reactions on EGFR. Aminoguanidine, an inhibitor of AGE formation, partially prevented the EGFR dysfunction induced by GO and MGO. These data introduce a novel mechanism for impaired cellular homeostasis in situations that lead to increased production of these reactive aldehydes, such as diabetes.
