Air Pollution and Climate Change Effects on Allergies in the Anthropocene: Abundance, Interaction, and Modification of Allergens and Adjuvants. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 2017; 51:4119-4141. [PMID: 28326768 PMCID: PMC5453620 DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.6b04908] [Citation(s) in RCA: 135] [Impact Index Per Article: 19.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2016] [Revised: 03/07/2017] [Accepted: 03/22/2017] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
Air pollution and climate change are potential drivers for the increasing burden of allergic diseases. The molecular mechanisms by which air pollutants and climate parameters may influence allergic diseases, however, are complex and elusive. This article provides an overview of physical, chemical and biological interactions between air pollution, climate change, allergens, adjuvants and the immune system, addressing how these interactions may promote the development of allergies. We reviewed and synthesized key findings from atmospheric, climate, and biomedical research. The current state of knowledge, open questions, and future research perspectives are outlined and discussed. The Anthropocene, as the present era of globally pervasive anthropogenic influence on planet Earth and, thus, on the human environment, is characterized by a strong increase of carbon dioxide, ozone, nitrogen oxides, and combustion- or traffic-related particulate matter in the atmosphere. These environmental factors can enhance the abundance and induce chemical modifications of allergens, increase oxidative stress in the human body, and skew the immune system toward allergic reactions. In particular, air pollutants can act as adjuvants and alter the immunogenicity of allergenic proteins, while climate change affects the atmospheric abundance and human exposure to bioaerosols and aeroallergens. To fully understand and effectively mitigate the adverse effects of air pollution and climate change on allergic diseases, several challenges remain to be resolved. Among these are the identification and quantification of immunochemical reaction pathways involving allergens and adjuvants under relevant environmental and physiological conditions.

Abstract
Proteins are targets of reactive nitrogen species such as peroxynitrite and nitrogen dioxide. Among the various amino acids in proteins, tyrosine and tryptophan residues are especially susceptible to attack by reactive nitrogen species. On the other hand, protein tyrosine phosphorylation has gained much attention in respect to cellular regulatory events and signal transduction. Peroxynitrite-mediated nitration of peptide YPPPPPW and phosphopeptide pYPPPPPW were studied at pH 7.4. The predominant nitrated products were separated and identified by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The nitration sites were established by tandem electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). A regulatory effect of tyrosine phosphorylation/dephosphorylation on peptide nitration was observed. YPPPPPW was predominantly nitrated at tyrosine residue while pYPPPPPW was nitrated at tryptophan one. Our results can help in understanding the biochemical significance of the relationship of tyrosine phosphorylation and nitration in proteins.

Abstract
Dityrosine is a fluorescent molecule formed as a result of normal posttranslational processing. In many structural proteins, dityrosine confers resistance to proteolysis and physicochemical trauma as a stabilizing crosslink. Dityrosine has also been found in oxidative/nitrative stress under a variety of conditions and biological systems. In this regard, it has been used as an important biomarker for oxidatively modified proteins during UV and gamma-irradiation, aging, and exposure to oxygen free radicals, nitrogen dioxide, peroxynitrite, and lipid hydroperoxides. Renewed interest in dityrosine and other tyrosine oxidation products as clinical indicators of oxidative modification has driven the development of important techniques for the specific analysis and quantification of these molecules. The presence of elevated levels of dityrosine in mammalian tissue and urine samples has been measured by chromatographic separation followed by mass spectrometry GC-MS and HPLC-MS/MS. Increases in dityrosine levels have been associated with pathologies such as eye cataracts, atherosclerosis, acute inflammation, and Alzheimer's disease. The continued development of, and increased accessibility to, improved mass spectrometric instrumentation will expand the capability, feasibility, and sensitivity with which specific biomarkers like dityrosine can be measured.

The line asymmetry of electron spin resonance spectra as a tool to determine the cis:trans ratio for spin-trapping adducts of chiral pyrrolines N-oxides: the mechanism of formation of hydroxyl radical adducts of EMPO, DEPMPO, and DIPPMPO in the ischemic-reperfused rat liver. Free Radic Biol Med 2006; 40:1524-38.

Abstract
Nonstereospecific addition of free radicals to chiral nitrones yields cis/trans diastereoisomeric nitroxides often displaying different electron spin resonance (ESR) characteristics. Glutathione peroxidase-glutathione (GPx-GSH) reaction was applied to reduce the superoxide adducts (nitrone/*OOH) to the corresponding hydroxyl radical (HO*) adducts (nitrone/*OH) of two nitrones increasingly used in biological spin trapping, namely 5-diethoxyphosphoryl-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DEPMPO) and 5-ethoxycarbonyl-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide, and of 5-diisopropoxyphosphoryl-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DIPPMPO), a sterically hindered DEPMPO analogue. The method offered improved conditions to record highly resolved ESR spectra and by accurate simulation of line asymmetry we obtained clear evidence for the existence of previously unrecognized isomer pairs of cis- and trans-[DEPMPO/*OH] and [DIPPMPO/*OH]. Additional nitrone/*OH generation methods were used, i.e. photolysis of hydrogen peroxide and the Fenton reaction. We developed a kinetic model involving first- and second-order decay and a secondary conversion of trans to cis isomer to fully account for the strongly configuration-dependent behavior of nitrone/*OH. In the reductive system and, to a lower extent, in the Fenton or photolytic systems cis-nitrone/*OH was the more stable diastereoisomer. In various biologically relevant milieu, we found that the cis:trans-nitrone/*OH ratio determined right after the spin adduct formation significantly differed upon the GPx-GSH vs (Fenton or photolytic) systems of formation. This new mechanistic ESR index consistently showed for all nitrones that nitrone/*OH signals detected in the postischemic effluents of ischemic isolated rat livers are the reduction products of primary nitrone/*OOH. Thus, ESR deconvolution of cis/trans diastereoisomers is of great interest in the study of HO* formation in biological systems.

Free Radic Biol Med 2005; 39:728-41. [PMID: 16109303 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2005.04.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 77] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2004] [Revised: 03/16/2005] [Accepted: 04/18/2005] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
Tyrosine nitration is a posttranslational modification observed in many pathologic states that can be associated with peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)) formation. However, in vitro, peroxynitrite-dependent tyrosine nitration is inhibited when its precursors, superoxide (O(2)*(-)) and nitric oxide ((*)NO), are formed at ratios (O(2)*(-)/(*)NO) different from one, severely questioning the use of 3-nitrotyrosine as a biomarker of peroxynitrite-mediated oxidations. We herein hypothesize that in biological systems the presence of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the facile transmembrane diffusion of (*)NO preclude accumulation of O(2)*(-) and (*)NO radicals under flux ratios different from one, preventing the secondary reactions that result in the inhibition of 3-nitrotyrosine formation. Using an array of reactions and kinetic constants, computer-assisted simulations were performed in order to assess the flux of 3-nitrotyrosine formation (J(NO(2(-))Y)) during exposure to simultaneous fluxes of superoxide (J(O(2)*(-))) and nitric oxide (J((*)NO)), varying the radical flux ratios (J(O(2)*(-))/ J((*)NO)), in the presence of carbon dioxide. With a basic set of reactions, J(NO(2(-))Y) as a function of radical flux ratios rendered a bell-shape profile, in complete agreement with previous reports. However, when superoxide dismutation by SOD and (*)NO decay due to diffusion out of the compartment were incorporated in the model, a quite different profile of J(NO(2(-))Y) as a function of the radical flux ratio was obtained: despite the fact that nitration yields were much lower, the bell-shape profile was lost and the extent of tyrosine nitration was responsive to increases in either O(2)*(-) or (*)NO, in agreement with in vivo observations. Thus, the model presented herein serves to reconcile the in vitro and in vivo evidence on the role of peroxynitrite in promoting tyrosine nitration.
