Abstract
Despite the large amounts of H2O2 generated in mammalian peroxisomes, cysteine residues of intraperoxisomal proteins are maintained in a reduced state. The biochemistry behind this phenomenon remains unexplored, and simple questions such as "is the peroxisomal membrane permeable to glutathione?" or "is there a thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase in the organelle matrix?" still have no answer. We used a cell-free in vitro system to equip rat liver peroxisomes with a glutathione redox sensor. The organelles were then incubated with glutathione solutions of different redox potentials and the oxidation/reduction kinetics of the redox sensor was monitored. The data suggest that the mammalian peroxisomal membrane is promptly permeable to both reduced and oxidized glutathione. No evidence for the presence of a robust thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase in the peroxisomal matrix could be found. Also, prolonged incubation of organelle suspensions with glutaredoxin 1 did not result in the internalization of the enzyme. To explore a potential role of glutathione in intraperoxisomal redox homeostasis we performed kinetic simulations. The results suggest that even in the absence of a glutaredoxin, glutathione is more important in protecting cysteine residues of matrix proteins from oxidation by H2O2 than peroxisomal catalase itself.

Abstract
Proteostasis encompasses a homeostatic cellular network in all cells that maintains the integrity of the proteome, which is critical for optimal cellular function. The components of the proteostasis network include protein synthesis, folding, trafficking, and degradation. Cardiac myocytes have a specialized endoplasmic reticulum (ER) called the sarcoplasmic reticulum that is well known for its role in contractile calcium handling. However, less studied is the proteostasis network associated with the ER, which is of particular importance in cardiac myocytes because it ensures the integrity of proteins that are critical for cardiac contraction, e.g., ion channels, as well as proteins necessary for maintaining myocyte viability and interaction with other cell types, e.g., secreted hormones and growth factors. A major aspect of the ER proteostasis network is the ER unfolded protein response (UPR), which is initiated when misfolded proteins in the ER activate a group of three ER transmembrane proteins, one of which is the transcription factor, ATF6. Prior to studies in the heart, ATF6 had been shown in model cell lines to be primarily adaptive, exerting protective effects by inducing genes that encode ER proteins that fortify protein-folding in this organelle, thus establishing the canonical role for ATF6. Subsequent studies in isolated cardiac myocytes and in the myocardium, in vivo, have expanded roles for ATF6 beyond the canonical functions to include the induction of genes that encode proteins outside of the ER that do not have known functions that are obviously related to ER protein-folding. The identification of such non-canonical roles for ATF6, as well as findings that the gene programs induced by ATF6 differ depending on the stimulus, have piqued interest in further research on ATF6 as an adaptive effector in cardiac myocytes, underscoring the therapeutic potential of activating ATF6 in the heart. Moreover, discoveries of small molecule activators of ATF6 that adaptively affect the heart, as well as other organs, in vivo, have expanded the potential for development of ATF6-based therapeutics. This review focuses on the ATF6 arm of the ER UPR and its effects on the proteostasis network in the myocardium.

Abstract
Peroxisomes exist in most cells, where they participate in lipid metabolism, as well as scavenging the reactive oxygen species (ROS) that are produced as by-products of their metabolic functions. In certain tissues such as the liver and kidneys, peroxisomes have more specific roles, such as bile acid synthesis in the liver and steroidogenesis in the adrenal glands. In the brain, peroxisomes are critically involved in creating and maintaining the lipid content of cell membranes and the myelin sheath, highlighting their importance in the central nervous system (CNS). This review summarizes the peroxisomal lifecycle, then examines the literature that establishes a link between peroxisomal dysfunction, cellular aging, and age-related disorders that affect the CNS. This review also discusses the gap of knowledge in research on peroxisomes in the CNS.

Abstract
Quality control of peroxisomes is essential for cellular homeostasis. However, the mechanism underlying pexophagy is largely unknown. In this study, we identified HSPA9 as a novel pexophagy regulator. Downregulation of HSPA9 increased macroautophagy/autophagy but decreased the number of peroxisomes in vitro and in vivo. The loss of peroxisomes by HSPA9 depletion was attenuated in SQSTM1-deficient cells. In HSPA9-deficient cells, the level of peroxisomal reactive oxygen species (ROS) increased, while inhibition of ROS blocked pexophagy in HeLa and SH-SY5Y cells. Importantly, reconstitution of HSPA9 mutants found in Parkinson disease failed to rescue the loss of peroxisomes, whereas reconstitution with wild type inhibited pexophagy in HSPA9-depleted cells. Knockdown of Hsc70-5 decreased peroxisomes in Drosophila, and the HSPA9 mutants failed to rescue the loss of peroxisomes in Hsc70-5-depleted flies. Taken together, our findings suggest that the loss of HSPA9 enhances peroxisomal degradation by pexophagy.

Abstract
The removal of damaged or superfluous organelles from the cytosol by selective autophagy is required to maintain organelle function, quality control and overall cellular homeostasis. Precisely how substrate selectivity is achieved, and how individual substrates are degraded during selective autophagy in response to both extracellular and intracellular cues is not well understood. The aim of this review is to highlight pexophagy, the autophagic degradation of peroxisomes, as a model for selective autophagy. Peroxisomes are dynamic organelles whose abundance is rapidly modulated in response to metabolic demands. Peroxisomes are routinely turned over by pexophagy for organelle quality control yet can also be degraded by pexophagy in response to external stimuli such as amino acid starvation or hypoxia. This review discusses the molecular machinery and regulatory mechanisms governing substrate selectivity during both quality-control pexophagy and pexophagy in response to external stimuli, in yeast and mammalian systems. We draw lessons from pexophagy to infer how the cell may coordinate the degradation of individual substrates by selective autophagy across different cellular cues.

Abstract
The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) supports the outer retina through essential roles in the retinoid cycle, nutrient supply, ion exchange, and waste removal. Each day the RPE removes the oldest ~10% of photoreceptor outer segment (OS) disk membranes through phagocytic uptake, which peaks following light onset. Impaired degradation of phagocytosed OS material by the RPE can lead to toxic accumulation of lipids, oxidative tissue damage, inflammation, and cell death. OSs are rich in very long chain fatty acids, which are preferentially catabolized in peroxisomes. Despite the importance of lipid degradation in RPE function, the regulation of peroxisome number and activity relative to diurnal OS ingestion is relatively unexplored. Using immunohistochemistry, immunoblot analysis, and catalase activity assays, we investigated peroxisome abundance and activity at 6 AM, 7 AM (light onset), 8 AM, and 3 PM, in wild-type (WT) mice and mice lacking microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B (Lc3b), which have impaired phagosome degradation. We found that catalase activity, but not the amount of catalase protein, is 50% higher in the morning compared with 3 PM, in RPE of WT, but not Lc3b-/-, mice. Surprisingly, we found that peroxisome abundance was stable during the day in RPE of WT mice; however, numbers were elevated overall in Lc3b-/- mice, implicating LC3B in autophagic organelle turnover in RPE. Our data suggest that RPE peroxisome function is regulated in coordination with phagocytosis, possibly through direct enzyme regulation, and may serve to prepare RPE peroxisomes for daily surges in ingested lipid-rich OS.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are ubiquitous and highly dynamic organelles that play a central role in the metabolism of lipids and reactive oxygen species. The importance of peroxisomal metabolism is illustrated by severe peroxisome biogenesis disorders in which functional peroxisomes are absent or disorders caused by single peroxisomal enzyme deficiencies. These multisystemic diseases manifest specific clinical and biochemical disturbances that originate from the affected peroxisomal pathways. An emerging role of the peroxisome has been identified in many types of diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, aging, obesity, and diabetes. Peroxisome homeostasis is achieved via a tightly regulated interplay between peroxisome biogenesis and degradation via selective autophagy, which is commonly known as "pexophagy". Dysregulation of either peroxisome biogenesis or pexophagy may be detrimental to the health of cells and contribute to the pathophysiology of these diseases. Autophagy is an evolutionary conserved catabolic process for non-selective degradation of macromolecules and organelles in response to various stressors. In selective autophagy, specific cargo-recognizing receptors connect the cargo to the core autophagic machinery, and additional posttranslational modifications such as ubiquitination and phosphorylation regulate this process. Several stress conditions have been shown to stimulate pexophagy and decrease peroxisome abundance. However, our understanding of the mechanisms that particularly regulate mammalian pexophagy has been limited. In recent years considerable progress has been made uncovering signaling pathways, autophagy receptors and adaptors as well as posttranslational modifications involved in pexophagy. In this review, which is published back-to-back with a peroxisome review by Islinger et al. [(Histochem Cell Biol 137:547-574, 2018). The peroxisome: an update on mysteries 2.0], we focus on recent novel findings on the underlying molecular mechanisms of pexophagy in yeast and mammalian cells and highlight concerns and gaps in our knowledge.

Abstract
USP30 is an integral protein of the outer mitochondrial membrane that counteracts PINK1 and Parkin‐dependent mitophagy following acute mitochondrial depolarisation. Here, we use two distinct mitophagy reporter systems to reveal tonic suppression by USP30, of a PINK1‐dependent component of basal mitophagy in cells lacking detectable Parkin. We propose that USP30 acts upstream of PINK1 through modulation of PINK1‐substrate availability and thereby determines the potential for mitophagy initiation. We further show that a fraction of endogenous USP30 is independently targeted to peroxisomes where it regulates basal pexophagy in a PINK1‐ and Parkin‐independent manner. Thus, we reveal a critical role of USP30 in the clearance of the two major sources of ROS in mammalian cells and in the regulation of both a PINK1‐dependent and a PINK1‐independent selective autophagy pathway.

Abstract
Development of cancer cell resistance against prooxidant drugs limits its potential clinical use. MCF-7 breast cancer cells chronically exposed to ascorbate/menadione became resistant (Resox cells) by increasing mainly catalase activity. Since catalase appears as an anticancer target, the elucidation of mechanisms regulating its expression is an important issue. In MCF-7 and Resox cells, karyotype analysis showed that chromosome 11 is not altered compared to healthy mammary epithelial cells. The genomic gain of catalase locus observed in MCF-7 and Resox cells cannot explain the differential catalase expression. Since ROS cause DNA lesions, the activation of DNA damage signaling pathways may influence catalase expression. However, none of the related proteins (i.e., p53, ChK) was activated in Resox cells compared to MCF-7. The c-abl kinase may lead to catalase protein degradation via posttranslational modifications, but neither ubiquitination nor phosphorylation of catalase was detected after catalase immunoprecipitation. Catalase mRNA levels did not decrease after actinomycin D treatment in both cell lines. DNMT inhibitor (5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine) increased catalase protein level in MCF-7 and its resistance to prooxidant drugs. In line with our previous report, chromatin remodeling appears as the main regulator of catalase expression in breast cancer after chronic exposure to an oxidative stress.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are highly dynamic intracellular organelles involved in a variety of metabolic functions essential for the metabolism of long-chain fatty acids, d-amino acids, and many polyamines. A byproduct of peroxisomal metabolism is the generation, and subsequent detoxification, of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, particularly hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Because of its relatively low reactivity (as a mild oxidant), H2O2 has a comparatively long intracellular half-life and a high diffusion rate, all of which makes H2O2 an efficient signaling molecule. Peroxisomes also have intricate connections to mitochondria, and both organelles appear to play important roles in regulating redox signaling pathways. Peroxisomal proteins are also subject to oxidative modification and inactivation by the reactive oxygen and nitrogen species they generate, but the peroxisomal LonP2 protease can selectively remove such oxidatively damaged proteins, thus prolonging the useful lifespan of the organelle. Peroxisomal homeostasis must adapt to the metabolic state of the cell, by a combination of peroxisome proliferation, the removal of excess or badly damaged organelles by autophagy (pexophagy), as well as by processes of peroxisome inheritance and motility. More recently the tumor suppressors ataxia telangiectasia mutate (ATM) and tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), which regulate mTORC1 signaling, have been found to regulate pexophagy in response to variable levels of certain reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. It is now clear that any significant loss of peroxisome homeostasis can have devastating physiological consequences. Peroxisome dysregulation has been implicated in several metabolic diseases, and increasing evidence highlights the important role of diminished peroxisomal functions in aging processes.

Abstract
Doxorubicin, a commonly used anti-neoplastic agent, causes severe neurotoxicity. Doxorubicin promotes thinning of the brain cortex and accelerates brain aging, leading to cognitive impairment. Oxidative stress induced by doxorubicin contributes to cellular damage. In addition to mitochondria, peroxisomes also generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and promote cell senescence. Here, we investigated if doxorubicin affects peroxisomal homeostasis in neurons. We demonstrate that the number of peroxisomes is increased in doxorubicin-treated neurons and in the brains of mice which underwent doxorubicin-based chemotherapy. Pexophagy, the specific autophagy of peroxisomes, is downregulated in neurons, and peroxisomes produce more ROS. 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD), an activator of the transcription factor TFEB, which regulates expression of genes involved in autophagy and lysosome function, mitigates damage of pexophagy and decreases ROS production induced by doxorubicin. We conclude that peroxisome-associated oxidative stress induced by doxorubicin may contribute to neurotoxicity, cognitive dysfunction, and accelerated brain aging in cancer patients and survivors. Peroxisomes might be a valuable new target for mitigating neuronal damage caused by chemotherapy drugs and for slowing down brain aging in general.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are essential organelles required for proper cell function in all eukaryotic organisms. They participate in a wide range of cellular processes including the metabolism of lipids and generation, as well as detoxification, of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Therefore, peroxisome homoeostasis, manifested by the precise and efficient control of peroxisome number and functionality, must be tightly regulated in response to environmental changes. Due to the existence of many physiological disorders and diseases associated with peroxisome homoeostasis imbalance, the dynamics of peroxisomes have been widely examined. The increasing volume of reports demonstrating significant involvement of the autophagy machinery in peroxisome removal leads us to summarize current knowledge of peroxisome degradation in mammalian cells. In this review we present current models of peroxisome degradation. We particularly focus on pexophagy-the selective clearance of peroxisomes through autophagy. We also critically discuss concepts of peroxisome recognition for pexophagy, including signalling and selectivity factors. Finally, we present examples of the pathological effects of pexophagy dysfunction and suggest promising future directions.

Abstract
AIMS Peroxisomes are highly adaptable and dynamic organelles, adjusting their size, number, and enzyme composition to changing environmental and metabolic demands. We determined whether peroxisomes respond to ischemia, and whether peroxisomal biogenesis is an adaptive response to cerebral ischemia. RESULTS Focal cerebral ischemia induced peroxisomal biogenesis in peri-infarct neurons, which was associated with a corresponding increase in peroxisomal antioxidant enzyme catalase. Peroxisomal biogenesis was also observed in primary cultured cortical neurons subjected to ischemic insult induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). A catalase inhibitor increased OGD-induced neuronal death. Moreover, preventing peroxisomal proliferation by knocking down dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) exacerbated neuronal death induced by OGD, whereas enhancing peroxisomal biogenesis pharmacologically using a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha agonist protected against neuronal death induced by OGD. INNOVATION This is the first documentation of ischemia-induced peroxisomal biogenesis in mammalian brain using a combined in vivo and in vitro approach, electron microscopy, high-resolution laser-scanning confocal microscopy, and super-resolution structured illumination microscopy. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that neurons respond to ischemic injury by increasing peroxisome biogenesis, which serves a protective function, likely mediated by enhanced antioxidant capacity of neurons.

Abstract
In the last century peroxisomes were thought to have an endosymbiotic origin. Along with mitochondria and chloroplasts, peroxisomes primarily regulate their numbers through the growth and division of pre-existing organelles, and they house specific machinery for protein import. These features were considered unique to endosymbiotic organelles, prompting the idea that peroxisomes were key cellular elements that helped facilitate the evolution of multicellular organisms. The functional similarities to mitochondria within mammalian systems expanded these ideas, as both organelles scavenge peroxide and reactive oxygen species, both organelles oxidize fatty acids, and at least in higher eukaryotes, the biogenesis of both organelles is controlled by common nuclear transcription factors of the PPAR family. Over the last decade it has been demonstrated that the fission machinery of both organelles is also shared, and that both organelles act as critical signaling platforms for innate immunity and other pathways. Taken together it is clear that the mitochondria and peroxisomes are functionally coupled, regulating cellular metabolism and signaling through a number of common mechanisms. However, recent work has focused primarily on the role of the ER in the biogenesis of peroxisomes, potentially overshadowing the critical importance of the mitochondria as a functional partner. In this review, we explore the mechanisms of functional coupling of the peroxisomes to the mitochondria/ER networks, providing some new perspectives on the potential contribution of the mitochondria to peroxisomal biogenesis.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are remarkably dynamic organelles that participate in a diverse array of cellular processes, including the metabolism of lipids and reactive oxygen species. In order to regulate peroxisome function in response to changing nutritional and environmental stimuli, new organelles need to be formed and superfluous and dysfunctional organelles have to be selectively removed. Disturbances in any of these processes have been associated with the etiology and progression of various congenital neurodegenerative and age-related human disorders. The aim of this review is to critically explore our current knowledge of how peroxisomes are degraded in mammalian cells and how defects in this process may contribute to human disease. Some of the key issues highlighted include the current concepts of peroxisome removal, the peroxisome quality control mechanisms, the initial triggers for peroxisome degradation, the factors for dysfunctional peroxisome recognition, and the regulation of peroxisome homeostasis. We also dissect the functional and mechanistic relationship between different forms of selective organelle degradation and consider how lysosomal dysfunction may lead to defects in peroxisome turnover. In addition, we draw lessons from studies on other organisms and extrapolate this knowledge to mammals. Finally, we discuss the potential pathological implications of dysfunctional peroxisome degradation for human health.

Abstract
Newly synthesized peroxisomal matrix proteins are targeted to the organelle by PEX5. PEX5 has a dual role in this process. First, it acts as a soluble receptor recognizing these proteins in the cytosol. Subsequently, at the peroxisomal docking/translocation machinery, PEX5 promotes their translocation across the organelle membrane. Despite significant advances made in recent years, several aspects of this pathway remain unclear. Two important ones regard the formation and disruption of the PEX5-cargo protein interaction in the cytosol and at the docking/translocation machinery, respectively. Here, we provide data on the interaction of PEX5 with catalase, a homotetrameric enzyme in its native state. We found that PEX5 interacts with monomeric catalase yielding a stable protein complex; no such complex was detected with tetrameric catalase. Binding of PEX5 to monomeric catalase potently inhibits its tetramerization, a property that depends on domains present in both the N- and C-terminal halves of PEX5. Interestingly, the PEX5-catalase interaction is disrupted by the N-terminal domain of PEX14, a component of the docking/translocation machinery. One or two of the seven PEX14-binding diaromatic motifs present in the N-terminal half of PEX5 are probably involved in this phenomenon. These results suggest the following: 1) catalase domain(s) involved in the interaction with PEX5 are no longer accessible upon tetramerization of the enzyme; 2) the catalase-binding interface in PEX5 is not restricted to its C-terminal peroxisomal targeting sequence type 1-binding domain and also involves PEX5 N-terminal domain(s); and 3) PEX14 participates in the cargo protein release step.

Abstract
Despite the identification and characterization of various proteins that are essential for peroxisome biogenesis, the origin and the turnover of peroxisomes are still unresolved critical issues. In this study, we used the HaloTag technology as a new approach to examine peroxisome dynamics in cultured mammalian cells. This technology is based on the formation of a covalent bond between the HaloTag protein--a mutated bacterial dehalogenase which is fused to the protein of interest--and a synthetic haloalkane ligand that contains a fluorophore or affinity tag. By using cell-permeable ligands of distinct fluorescence, it is possible to image distinct pools of newly synthesized proteins, generated from a single genetic HaloTag-containing construct, at different wavelengths. Here, we show that peroxisomes display an age-related heterogeneity with respect to their capacity to incorporate newly synthesized proteins. We also demonstrate that these organelles do not exchange their protein content. In addition, we present evidence that the matrix protein content of pre-existing peroxisomes is not evenly distributed over new organelles. Finally, we show that peroxisomes in cultured mammalian cells, under basal growth conditions, have a half-life of approximately 2 days and are mainly degraded by an autophagy-related mechanism. The implications of these findings are discussed.

Abstract
Gliomas are extremely resistant to anticancer therapies resulting in poor patient survival, due, in part, to altered expression of antioxidant enzymes. The primary antioxidant enzyme, catalase, is elevated constitutively in gliomas compared to normal astrocytes. We hypothesized that downregulating catalase in glioma cells would sensitize these cells to oxidative stress. To test this hypothesis, we implemented two approaches. The first, a pharmacological approach, used 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole, an irreversible inhibitor that reduced catalase enzymatic activity by 75%. Pharmacological inhibition of catalase was not associated with a reduction in rat 36B10 glioma cell viability until the cells were challenged with additional oxidative stress, i.e., ionizing radiation or hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)). In the second molecular approach, we generated 36B10 glioma cells stably expressing catalase shRNA; a stable cell line displayed a 75% reduction in catalase immunoreactive protein and enzymatic activity. This was accompanied by an increase in intracellular reactive oxygen species and extracellular H(2)O(2). These cells exhibited increased sensitivity to radiation and H(2)O(2), which was rescued by the antioxidant, N-acetylcysteine. These results support the hypothesis that catalase is a major participant in the defense of 36B10 glioma cells against oxidative stress mediated by anticancer agents capable of increasing steady-state levels of H(2)O(2).

Abstract
Hepatic cytochromes P450 (P450s) are monotopic endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-anchored hemoproteins that exhibit heterogenous physiological protein turnover. The molecular/cellular basis for such heterogeneity is not well understood. Although both autophagic-lysosomal and nonlysosomal pathways are available for their cellular degradation, native P450s such as CYP2B1 are preferentially degraded by the former route, whereas others such as CYPs 3A are degraded largely by the proteasomal pathway, and yet others such as CYP2E1 may be degraded by both. The molecular/structural determinants that dictate this differential proteolytic targeting of the native P450 proteins remain to be unraveled. In contrast, the bulk of the evidence indicates that inactivated and/or otherwise posttranslationally modified P450 proteins undergo adenosine triphosphate-dependent proteolytic degradation in the cytosol. Whether this process specifically involves the ubiquitin (Ub)-/26S proteasome-dependent, the Ub-independent 20S proteasome-dependent, or even a recently characterized Ub- and proteasome-independent pathway may depend on the particular P450 species targeted for degradation. Nevertheless, the collective evidence on P450 degradation attests to a remarkably versatile cellular sanitation brigade available for their disposal. Given that the P450s are integral ER proteins, this mechanistic diversity in their cellular disposal should further expand the repertoire of proteolytic processes available for ER proteins, thereby extending the currently held general notion of ER-associated degradation.

Abstract
A concept for a life and health-preserving principle is presented, with reference to evolutionary, medical, and biochemical observations. Life comprises two basic phenomena: it unfolds over longer periods at the population level, and is sustained for the duration of individual life spans. The evolution of life within populations by means of natural selection of individuals is central to Darwin's theory of evolution. An important component of maintaining individual life is proposed here to be the natural selection of molecular components-the proteins, a process of preferred removal of denatured and old, synonymous with the selection of younger, functional molecules. The proteins of the cell are committed to fulfilling all the tasks programmed by the genome while continuously maintaining all appropriate cellular functions, including protecting the DNA. Physiological and environmental influences accelerate the breakdown of aged protein molecules, driving this renewal process so that the cell can maintain its protein stock at high-performance levels. The principle of selection makes the incredible dynamics of continual protein turnover, and hence not only the preservation of life, but the maintenance of health in individual beings, comprehensible. Arguments are presented to counter the hypothesis that protein breakdown is a stochastic, random process governed by first-order kinetics.

Abstract
In this work, an attempt was made to identify the reasons of impaired long-chain fatty acid utilization that was previously described in volume-overloaded rat hearts. The most significant data are the following: (1) The slowing down of long-chain fatty acid oxidation in severely hypertrophied hearts cannot be related to a feedback inhibition of carnitine palmitoyltransferase I from an excessive stimulation of glucose oxidation since, because of decreased tissue levels of L-carnitine, glucose oxidation also declines in volume-overloaded hearts. (2) While, in control hearts, the estimated intracellular concentrations of free carnitine are in the range of the respective Km of mitochondrial CPT I, a kinetic limitation of this enzyme could occur in hypertrophied hearts due to a 40% decrease in free carnitine. (3) The impaired palmitate oxidation persists upon the isolation of the mitochondria from these hearts even in presence of saturating concentrations of L-carnitine. In contrast, the rates of the conversion of both palmitoyl-CoA and palmitoylcarnitine into acetyl-CoA are unchanged. (4) The kinetic analyses of palmitoyl-CoA synthase and carnitine palmitoyltransferase I reactions do not reveal any differences between the two mitochondrial populations studied. On the other hand, the conversion of palmitate into palmitoylcarnitine proves to be substrate inhibited already at physiological concentrations of exogenous palmitate. The data presented in this work demonstrate that, during the development of severe cardiac hypertrophy, a fragilization of the mitochondrial outer membrane may occur. The functional integrity of this membrane seems to be further deteriorated by increasing concentrations of free fatty acids which gives rise to an impaired cooperation between palmitoyl-CoA synthase and carnitine palmitoyltransferase I. In intact myocardium, the utilization of the in situ generated palmitoyl-CoA can be further slowed down by decreased intracellular concentrations of free carnitine.

Abstract
Peroxisomicine is a toxic compound isolated from plants of the genus Karwinskia (Rhamnaceae). This toxin produces irreversible and selective damage to the peroxisomes of yeast cells in vivo. Peroxisomicine also inhibits catalase activity in vitro, when using purified enzyme. This paper reports on the effect of peroxisomicine on liver catalase in tissue fragments, in situ, as well as in mice intoxicated with peroxisomicine, in vivo. The catalase activity was determined by biochemical and histochemical methods. In contrast with the reported findings in vitro, the results demonstrate that there is no inhibition of the activity of tissue catalase, and suggest that catalase in situ and in vivo is protected against the inhibitory effect of peroxisomicine by an unknown factor.

Abstract
Peb1 is a peroxisome biogenesis mutant isolated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that is selectively defective in the import of thiolase into peroxisomes but has a normal ability to package catalase, luciferase and acyl-CoA oxidase (Zhang, J. W., C. Luckey, and P. B. Lazarow. 1993. Mol. Biol. Cell. 4:1351-1359). Thiolase differs from these other peroxisomal proteins in that it is targeted by an NH2-terminal, 16-amino acid peroxisomal targeting sequence type 2 (PTS 2). This phenotype suggests that the PEB1 protein might function as a receptor for the PTS2. The PEB1 gene has been cloned by functional complementation. It encodes a 42,320-D, hydrophilic protein with no predicted transmembrane segment. It contains six WD repeats that comprise the entire protein except for the first 55 amino acids. Peb1p was tagged with hemagglutinin epitopes and determined to be exclusively within peroxisomes by digitonin permeabilization, immunofluorescence, protease protection and immuno-electron microscopy (Zhang, J. W., and P. B. Lazarow. 1995. J. Cell Biol. 129:65-80). Peb1p is identical to Pas7p (Marzioch, M., R. Erdmann, M. Veenhuis, and W.-H. Kunau. 1994. EMBO J. 13: 4908-4917). We have now tested whether Peb1p interacts with the PTS2 of thiolase. With the two-hybrid assay, we observed a strong interaction between Peb1p and thiolase that was abolished by deleting the first 16 amino acids of thiolase. An oligopeptide consisting of the first 16 amino acids of thiolase was sufficient for the affinity binding of Peb1p. Binding was reduced by the replacement of leucine with arginine at residue five, a change that is known to reduce thiolase targeting in vivo. Finally, a thiolase-Peb1p complex was isolated by immunoprecipitation. To investigate the topogenesis of Peb1p, its first 56-amino acid residues were fused in front of truncated thiolase lacking the NH2-terminal 16-amino acid PTS2. The fusion protein was expressed in a thiolase knockout strain. Equilibrium density centrifugation and immunofluorescence indicated that the fusion protein was located in peroxisomes. Deletion of residues 6-55 from native Peb1p resulted in a cytosolic location and the loss of function. Thus the NH2-terminal 56-amino acid residues of Peb1p are necessary and sufficient for peroxisomal targeting. Peb1p is found in peroxisomes whether thiolase is expressed or not. These results suggest that Peb1p (Pas7p) is an intraperoxisomal receptor for the type 2 peroxisomal targeting signal.

Abstract
According to current concepts, new peroxisomes are formed by division of pre-existing peroxisomes or by budding from a peroxisomal reticulum. Recent cytochemical and biochemical data indicate that protein content in peroxisomes are heterogenous and that import of newly synthesized proteins may be restricted to certain protein import-competent peroxisomal subcompartments (Yamamoto, K., and Fahimi, H. D. (1987) J. Cell Biol. 105, 713-722; Heinemann, P., and Just, W. W. (1992) FEBS Lett. 300, 179-182; Lüers, G., Hashimoto, T., Fahimi, H. D., and Völkl, A. (1993) J. Cell Biol. 121, 1271-1280). We have observed that substantial amounts of peroxisomal proteins are found together with "microsomes" (100,000 x g pellet) after subcellular fractionation of rat liver homogenates. In this study we have investigated the origin of these peroxisomal proteins by modified gradient centrifugation procedures in Nycodenz and by analysis of enzyme activity distributions, Western blotting, and immunoelectron microscopy. It is concluded that much of this material is confined to novel populations of "peroxisomes." Immunocytochemistry on gradient fractions showed that some vesicles were enriched in acyl-CoA oxidase and peroxisomal multifunctional enzyme ("catalase-negative") whereas others were enriched in catalase and thiolase ("acyl-CoA oxidase-negative"). Double immunolabeling experiments verified the strong heterogeneity in the protein contents of these vesicles and also identified peroxisomes varying in size from about 0.5 microns ("normal peroxisomes") to extremely small vesicles of less than 100 nm in diameter. The possibility that these vesicles may be related to different subcompartments of a larger peroxisomal structure involved in protein import and biogenesis will be discussed.

Abstract
Degradation of the peroxisomal enzymes fatty acyl-CoA oxidase and catalase was studied in hepatocytes isolated from rats treated with clofibrate and from control rats. Hepatocytes were incubated in the absence of amino acids in order to ensure maximal flux through the autophagic pathway and in the presence of cycloheximide to inhibit protein synthesis. (1) Degradation of the two peroxisomal enzymes in hepatocytes from clofibrate-fed rats, but not in hepatocytes from control rats, was much faster than that of other intracellular enzymes. This increased degradation of the peroxisomal enzymes was almost completely prevented by 3-methyladenine, an inhibitor of macroautophagic sequestration. (2) The increased degradation of the peroxisomal enzymes was also inhibited by a long-chain (C16:0) and a very-long-chain (C26:0) fatty acid, but not by C12:0, a medium-chain fatty acid, or by C8:0, a short-chain fatty acid. These results provide direct evidence for the proposal that autophagic sequestration can be highly selective [(1987) Exp. Mol. Pathol. 46, 114-122]. It is concluded that preferential autophagy of peroxisomes is prevented when these organelles are supplied with their fatty acid substrates.

Abstract
The turnover of catalase apoprotein and catalase heme was studied in cotyledons of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seedlings by density labeling of apoprotein and radioactive labeling of heme moieties. The heavy isotope (50% (2)H(2)O) and the radioactive isotope ([(14)C]5-aminolevulinic acid) were applied either during growth in the dark (day 0-2.5) or in the light (day 2.5 and 5). Following isopycnic centrifugation of catalase purified from cotyledons of 5-day-old seedlings, superimposition curve fitting was used to determine the amounts of radioactive heme moieties in native and density-labeled catalase. Data from these determinations indicated that turnover of catalase heme and apoprotein essentially was coordinate. Only small amounts of heme groups were recycled into newly synthesized apoprotein during growth in the light, and no evidence was found for an exchange of heme groups in apoprotein moieties. It followed from these observations that degradation of catalase apoprotein was slightly faster than that of catalase heme. A degradation constant for catalase apoprotein of 0.263 per day was determined from the data on heme recycling and the degradation constant of catalase heme determined previously to be 0.205 per day (R Eising, B Gerhardt [1987] Plant Physiol 84: 225-232).

Abstract
Several forms of microbodies have been characterized on the basis of their biochemical functions. We have investigated cucumber cotyledons which house two different microbody forms during their development. In these cells, a shift from organelles with the enzymes of beta-oxidation and glyoxylate cycle to peroxisomes with the enzymes of the photosynthetic C2-cycle can be induced by light. The transition state and the time course of changes was studied at different levels of gene expression during the first 2 days of illumination, by quantifying the rate of de novo protein synthesis in cotyledons and by measuring the mRNA activities in vitro. Synthesis and turnover of particular proteins were determined during the transition stage by immunoprecipitation of malate synthase, isocitrate lyase, catalase, multifunctional protein, and thiolase, and quantified by fluorography. From the mRNA activities and the rate of protein synthesis, gene expression for enzymes of the glyoxylate cycle and beta-oxidation started to decrease 24-36 h after onset of continuous light. At that time the rate of synthesis of glycolate oxidase, a leaf peroxisomal marker, is already maximal. By pulse-chase experiments 0-48 h after the onset of light the speed and intensity of protein turnover were measured. Rates of proteolytic degradation of individual enzymes indicated that the different enzymes were not lost simultaneously or all at once. This excludes a destruction of the whole organelle by the lytic compartment.

Abstract
Evidence is presented that the organelles of Lemna minor do not degrade as functional units. The proteins of Lemna show wide differences in their rates of degradation and ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.39) has a particularly slow rate of degradation. Contrary to some earlier evidence, we found no correlation between the rate of soluble-protein degradation and either charge or size of proteins. We could find no correlation between protein degradation and subunit size in any of the organelles of Lemna.

Abstract
The mechanisms involved in the inhibitory effects of antilipolytic agents on rat liver peroxisomal fatty acid oxidative activity have been explored. Treatment of fasting rats with antilipolytic drugs (either 3,5-dimethylpyrazole (12 mg/kg body weight) or Acipimox (25 mg/kg body weight] resulted in a decrease in free fatty acid and glucose plasma levels within 5-10 and in a significant increase in the plasma glucagon to insulin ratio within 15. Changes in the fatty acid oxidative activity appeared with a 2.5-3 h delay and were then very rapid (a 30-40% decrease in the activity occurred in additional 2 h). Many peroxisomal enzyme activities (including non-beta-oxidative activities such as uricase and D-amino acid oxidase) exhibited similar changes with the same delay. Simultaneously with the enzyme changes, at the electron microscope level many autophagic vacuoles were detected in the liver cells, often containing peroxisomal structures. Glutamine, an inhibitor of proteolysis in vivo, prevented the decrease in enzyme activities. It was concluded that the decrease in peroxisomal enzyme activities may be the consequence of enhanced peroxisome degradation due to the stimulation of autophagic processes in liver cells.

Abstract
The biosynthesis, transport and degradation of catalase have been studied in the guinea pig liver parenchymal cell using 2-allyl-2-isopropylacetamide (AIA) as an inhibitor of de novo formation of catalase. Total catalase activity was assayed biochemically; cytoplasmic catalase was measured microspectrophotometrically after quantitative diaminobenzidine staining of the liver. By morphometry, number and size of peroxisomes in catalase stained sections were determined. From our data we conclude that (1) the final step in the catalase formation takes place inside peroxisomes, (2) catalase is transported from the peroxisomes into the cytoplasm, (3) in the cytoplasm catalase is degraded. These conclusions in part confirm the topological model on the intracellular catalase biosynthesis pathway of Lazarow and de Duve (1973) except for the presence of cytoplasmic catalase which is released from the peroxisomes as proposed earlier by Jones and Masters (1975).

Abstract
Incorporation of newly synthesized heme into microsome-bound cytochrome P-450 in rat liver was not affected by cycloheximide administration to the animals, indicating that the heme incorporation into cytochrome P-450 is not tightly coupled with the synthesis of the apo-cytochrome. When the heme of microsomal cytochrome P-450 had been labeled in vivo with delta-[14C]aminolevulinic acid, and then the animals were treated with phenobarbital (PB) or 3-methylcholanthrene (MC), PB-induced or MC-induced form of cytochrome P-450 was found to contain labeled heme derived from preexistent cytochrome P-450. These observations indicated that the heme of microsome-bound cytochrome P-450 is not tightly associated with the protein portion, and exchanges reversibly between different molecular species of cytochrome P-450 in vivo.

Abstract
Ultrastructural and cytochemical changes in peroxisomes of Type II alveolar cells were investigated in butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT)-administered mouse lungs. Male mice were given a single injection of BHT (400 mg/kg, ip) and sacrificed 1 to 7 days later. By means of tracheal infusion, lungs were fixed with a 2% glutaraldehyde or half-strength Karnovsky solution. Type I epithelium was selectively destroyed by BHT and was replaced by cuboidal Type II cells. Type II cells proliferated and some became squamous, extended their cytoplasm, and might differentiate into Type I cells (Hirai, Witschi, and Côté (1977) Exp. Mol. Pathol. 27, 295-308). Peroxisomes, Type II cell constituents, were clustered around and continuous with endoplasmic reticulum. The shape of the peroxisomes became indistinct after Type I cell injury by BHT. Also the density of the matrix was reduced in proportion to the reduction in the peroxidatic activity of catalase. These changes were accompanied by a decrease in the number of peroxisomes. New pinocytotic vesicles, one of the Type I cell characteristics, were generated at the apical and basal cell surfaces. Therefore, these cells had characteristics intermediate between Type I and Type II cells. These findings may indicate further evidence of the origin of Type I cells from Type II cells.

Abstract
The in vivo turnover rates of liver microsomal epoxide hydrolase and both the heme and apoprotein moieties of cytochromes P-450a, P-450b + P-450e, and P-450c have been determined by following the decay in specific radioactivity from 2 to 96 h after simultaneous injections of NaH14CO3 and 3H-labeled delta-aminolevulinic acid to Aroclor 1254-treated rats. Total liver microsomal protein was characterized by an apparent biphasic exponential decay in specific radioactivity, with half-lives of 5-9 and 82 h for the fast- and slow-phase components, respectively. Most (approximately 90%) of the rapidly turning over microsomal protein fraction was immunologically distinct from membrane-associated serum protein, and thus appeared to represent integral membrane proteins. The existence of two distinct populations of cytochrome P-450a was suggested by the apparent biphasic turnover of both the heme and apoprotein moieties of the holoenzyme. The half-lives of the apoprotein were estimated to be 12 and 52 h for the fast- and slow-phase components, respectively, and 7 and 34 h for the heme moiety. The turnover of cytochromes P-450b + P-450e was identical to that of cytochrome P-450c, with half-lives of 37 and 28 h for the apoprotein and heme moieties, respectively. In all cases, the shorter half-lives of the heme component compared to the protein component were statistically significant. In contrast to the cytochrome P-450 isozymes, epoxide hydrolase (t1/2 = 132 h) turned over slower than the "average" microsomal protein (t1/2 = 82 h). The differential rates of degradation of these major integral membrane proteins during both the rapid and slow phases of total microsomal protein turnover argue against the concepts of unit membrane degradation and unidirectional membrane flow of liver endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
The fine structure of microperoxisomes (anucleoid peroxisomes) and catalase peroxidatic activity in salamander and frog pancreas have been investigated following glutaraldehyde fixation and incubation in a modified NOVIKOFF-GOLDFISCHER alkaline DAB-medium. Reactive microperoxisomes ranging in diameter from 0.16 to 0.76 micrometer were identified in both exocrine (acinar and ductular centro-acinar cells) and insular (B-, A-, D-cells) pancreatic tissue, as well as in the nerve fibers and endings. Their incidence was considerably higher in the exocrine parenchyma, where sometimes in frog they accumulated in clusters. Individual microperoxisomes showed close spatial relationship and occasionally membrane continuities with smooth surfaced endoplasmic reticulum and zymogen granules. They were also localized in the proximity or in direct contact with the nuclear envelope, mitochondria, GOLGI condensing vacuoles, lipid inclusions and plasma membrane. The morphological findings support the microperoxisomes origin from the agranular endoplasmic reticulum and their possible discharge into the extracellular spaces through an exocytosis-like mechanism. The cytochemical observations are discussed in relation with the concepts on catalase biosynthesis and peroxisomes functional significance.

Abstract
The livers from 56 sham-operated and 56 partially hepatectomized male albino rats killed 4--81 h after operation were investigated by electron microscopic morphometry. Following partial hepatectomy, the principal changes in volume fractions in the hepatocellular cytoplasm were: decrease of glycogen and, to a lesser extent, of mitochondria together with considerable increase of fat droplets. The volume fraction of microbodies (= peroxisomes) showed no significant difference between control and regenerating liver. By evaluating large test fields of about 40,000 micrometers 2 sectioned cytoplasm per animal it could be demonstrated that the volume fraction and the numerical density of autophagic vacuoles (AV's) were significantly reduced after partial hepatectomy. The extent of this reduction depended on the postoperative time interval. AV's were reduced by 75% at day 0 (4--17 h p.o.), by 98% at day I (19--33 h p-o.), by 75% at day II (43--57 h p.o.), and still by 50% at day III (67--81 h p.o.). The different types of AV's, defined on the basis of the different cytoplasmic components enclosed, were reduced to similar extent during the respective time periods. The reduction of AV's seems to be specific for the regenerating organ since no significant differences in the volume fraction of AV's could be found in the proximal tubular cells of the kidney of partially hepatectomized animals when compared with those of sham-operated controls. The inhibition of intracellular autophagic degradation in regenerating liver has its biochemical equivalent, i.e. inhibited protein catabolism, and is interpreted as an important and adequate mechanism in effecting the shift from the physiological steady state between anabolism and catabolism to the positive balance which is required for the compensatory growth of the liver after partial hepatectomy.

Abstract
Urate oxidase and catalase were purified from rat liver peroxisomes, and respective antibodies were prepared from rabbits by the administration of these enzymes. Although urate oxidase generally precipitates in immunoprecipitation-possible pH ranges (pH 4.5--9.5), the enzyme remained soluble in 50 mM glycine buffer (pH 9.5) containing 50% glycerol up to concentration of 0.3 mg/ml. Anti-urate oxidase reacted with purified urate oxidase as well as with the crude preparation. After [3H]leucine was injected to rats, urate oxidase and catalase were purified from rat liver at certain intervals, and further precipitated by respective antibodies. The half-life of the catalase was 39 h and that of urate oxidase, 20 h. When the sonicated light mitochondrial fraction was incubated at 37 degrees C and at pH 7.0 or 5.6, inactivation of catalase did not seem to differ between these pH values, and approximately 80% of the catalase activity remained even after 8 h. Urate oxidase was inactivated very rapidly at pH 5.6; only 30% of its activity survived incubation for 6 h. This inactivation was found to occur by some proteolytic process. From these findings, the turnover rate of urate oxidase was found to be different from that of catalase, and this distinction seemed to be due to different sensitivity to some degradative enzymes.

RMI 14, 514 ([5-tetradecycloxy]-2-furancarboxylic acid) represents a new class of hypolipidemic agents which cause unusual ultrastructural changes in liver of male rats and in selected peroxisomal enzymes in liver and kidney of both sexes. Among the principal ultrastructural changes in peroxisomes of male rat liver were (a) cavitation and compartmentalization of the matrix, often giving the appearance of a peroxisome-within-a-peroxisome, and (b) narrow, dense extensions of canaliculi or cisterns from the periphery of the peroxisome, forming partial circlets or surrounding irregular areas of cytoplasm. The unusual enzyme responses were (a) elevation of catalase activity in liver and kidney in female rats, (b) increased activity of three hydrogen peroxide-producing oxidases (urate oxidase, L-alpha-hydroxy acid oxidase, and D-amino acid oxidase) in the liver of both sexes, and (c) elevation of activity of the last two oxidases in male kidney. The peculiar ultrastructural changes in liver peroxisomes combined with the responses of selected peroxisomal enzymes represent unusual modulations or adaptations of these organelles to a hypolipidemic agent, the effects of which have not been reported extensively.
