Abstract
The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) plays the key role in cardiac function as the major source of Ca2+ that activates cardiomyocyte contractile machinery. Disturbances in finely-tuned SR Ca2+ release by SR Ca2+ channel ryanodine receptor (RyR2) and SR Ca2+ reuptake by SR Ca2+-ATPase (SERCa2a) not only impair contraction, but also contribute to cardiac arrhythmia trigger and reentry. Besides being the main Ca2+ storage organelle, SR in cardiomyocytes performs all the functions of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in other cell types including protein synthesis, folding and degradation. In recent years ER stress has become recognized as an important contributing factor in many cardiac pathologies, including deadly ventricular arrhythmias. This brief review will therefore focus on ER stress mechanisms in the heart and how these changes can lead to pro-arrhythmic defects in SR Ca2+ handling machinery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress in cardiac disease promotes proarrhythmic disturbances in Ca2+ homeostasis, impairing luminal Ca2+ regulation of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release channel, the RyR2 (ryanodine receptor), and increasing channel activity. However, exact mechanisms underlying redox-mediated increase of RyR2 function in cardiac disease remain elusive. We tested whether the oxidoreductase family of proteins that dynamically regulate the oxidative environment within the SR are involved in this process. METHODS A rat model of hypertrophy induced by thoracic aortic banding (TAB) was used for ex vivo whole heart optical mapping and for Ca2+ and reactive oxygen species imaging in isolated ventricular myocytes (VMs). RESULTS The SR-targeted reactive oxygen species biosensor ERroGFP showed increased intra-SR oxidation in TAB VMs that was associated with increased expression of Ero1α (endoplasmic reticulum oxidoreductase 1 alpha). Pharmacological (EN460) or genetic Ero1α inhibition normalized SR redox state, increased Ca2+ transient amplitude and SR Ca2+ content, and reduced proarrhythmic spontaneous Ca2+ waves in TAB VMs under β-adrenergic stimulation (isoproterenol). Ero1α overexpression in Sham VMs had opposite effects. Ero1α inhibition attenuated Ca2+-dependent ventricular tachyarrhythmias in TAB hearts challenged with isoproterenol. Experiments in TAB VMs and human embryonic kidney 293 cells expressing human RyR2 revealed that an Ero1α-mediated increase in SR Ca2+-channel activity involves dissociation of intraluminal protein ERp44 (endoplasmic reticulum protein 44) from the RyR2 complex. Site-directed mutagenesis and molecular dynamics simulations demonstrated a novel redox-sensitive association of ERp44 with RyR2 mediated by intraluminal cysteine 4806. ERp44-RyR2 association in TAB VMs was restored by Ero1α inhibition, but not by reducing agent dithiothreitol, as hypo-oxidation precludes formation of covalent bond between RyR2 and ERp44. CONCLUSIONS A novel axis of intraluminal interaction between RyR2, ERp44, and Ero1α has been identified. Ero1α inhibition exhibits promising therapeutic potential by stabilizing RyR2-ERp44 complex, thereby reducing spontaneous Ca2+ release and Ca2+-dependent tachyarrhythmias in hypertrophic hearts, without causing hypo-oxidative stress in the SR.

Phytother Res 2021; 35:6932-6943.

Abstract
It has been shown that 18β-glycyrrhetinic acid (18β-GA), the main bioactive compound of licorice, can modulate oxidative stress and metabolic processes in liver and skin. Given the critical role of oxidative stress and energy metabolism in exercise-induced fatigue, we hypothesized that 18β-GA could exert an ergogenic action by inhibiting excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) induction and promoting energy production in muscles. Mice were gavage-fed with 18β-GA for four consecutive days. Running ability was assessed based on the exhaustive treadmill test with high- and moderate-intensity. Western blot analysis, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and immunofluorescence staining were used to measure the changes of muscle fatigue-related markers, oxidative stress status, and energy metabolism in response to 18β-GA exposure. Treatment with 18β-GA significantly increased the exhaustive running distance (~37%) in the high-intensity exercise, but not in the moderate-intensity exercise. Mechanistically, reduction of oxidative stress and induction of antioxidants (SOD, CAT, and GSH) by 18β-GA were observed. Moreover, 18β-GA treatment caused an improved preservation of muscle glycogen (12%), which was associated with upregulation of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) (91%) and increased insulin level (17%). The findings of the present study clearly suggest that 18β-GA holds excellent potential as a novel bioactive agent against high-intensity exercise-induced fatigue.

Abstract
Physical fatigue during exercise can be defined as an impairment of physical performance. Multiple factors have been found contributing to physical fatigue, including neurotransmitter-mediated defense action, insufficient energy supply, and induction of oxidative stress. These mechanistic findings provide a sound theoretical rationale for nutritional intervention since most of these factors can be modulated by nutrient supplementation. In this review, we summarize the current evidence regarding the functional role of nutrients supplementation in managing physical performance and propose the issues that need to be addressed for better utilization of nutritional supplementation approach to improve physical performance.

Abstract
The presence of the H2 S pathway in skeletal muscle (SKM) has recently been established. SKM expresses the three constitutive H2 S-generating enzymes in animals and humans, and it actively produces H2 S. The main, recognized molecular targets of H2 S, that is, potassium channels and PDEs, have been evaluated in SKM physiology in order to hypothesize a role for H2 S signalling. SKM dysfunctions, including muscular dystrophy and malignant hyperthermia, have also been evaluated as conditions in which the H2 S and transsulfuration pathways have been suggested to be involved. The intrinsic complexity of the molecular mechanisms involved in excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling together with the scarcity of preclinical models of SKM-related disorders have hampered any advances in the knowledge of SKM function. Here, we have addressed the role of the H2 S pathway in E-C coupling and the relative importance of cystathionine β-synthase, cistathionine γ-lyase and 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase in SKM diseases.

Abstract
The loss of contractile function is a hallmark of heart failure. Although increasing intracellular Ca(2+) is a possible strategy for improving contraction, current inotropic agents that achieve this by raising intracellular cAMP levels, such as β-agonists and phosphodiesterase inhibitors, are generally deleterious when administered as long-term therapy due to arrhythmia and myocardial damage. Nitroxyl donors have been shown to improve cardiac function in normal and failing dogs, and in isolated cardiomyocytes they increase fractional shortening and Ca(2+) transients, independently from cAMP/PKA or cGMP/PKG signaling. Instead, nitroxyl targets cysteines in the EC-coupling machinery and myofilament proteins, reversibly modifying them to enhance Ca(2+) handling and myofilament Ca(2+) sensitivity. Phase I-IIa trials with CXL-1020, a novel pure HNO donor, reported declines in left and right heart filling pressures and systemic vascular resistance, and increased cardiac output and stroke volume index. These findings support the concept of nitroxyl donors as attractive agents for the treatment of acute decompensated heart failure.

Abstract
Human ryanodine receptor 2 (hRyR2) mediates calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, enabling cardiomyocyte contraction. The N-terminal region of hRyR2 (amino acids 1-606) is the target of >30 arrhythmogenic mutations and contains a binding site for phosphoprotein phosphatase 1. Here, the solution and crystal structures determined under near-physiological conditions, as well as a homology model of the hRyR2 N-terminal region, are presented. The N-terminus is held together by a unique network of interactions among its three domains, A, B and C, in which the central helix (amino acids 410-437) plays a prominent stabilizing role. Importantly, the anion-binding site reported for the mouse RyR2 N-terminal region is notably absent from the human RyR2. The structure concurs with the differential stability of arrhythmogenic mutations in the central helix (R420W, I419F and I419F/R420W) which are owing to disparities in the propensity of mutated residues to form energetically favourable or unfavourable contacts. In solution, the N-terminus adopts a globular shape with a prominent tail that is likely to involve residues 545-606, which are unresolved in the crystal structure. Docking the N-terminal domains into cryo-electron microscopy maps of the closed and open RyR1 conformations reveals C(α) atom movements of up to 8 Å upon channel gating, and predicts the location of the leucine-isoleucine zipper segment and the interaction site for spinophilin and phosphoprotein phosphatase 1 on the RyR surface.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are Ca(2+)-release channels on the sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum that modulate a wide array of physiological functions. Three RyR isoforms are present in cells: RyR1, RyR2 and RyR3. To date, there are no reports on ligands that modulate RyR in an isoform-selective manner. Such ligands are not only valuable research tools, but could serve as intermediates for development of therapeutics. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid and 1,3-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide were allowed to react in carbon tetrachloride for 24 h at low temperatures and pressures. The chemical structures of the two products isolated were elucidated using NMR spectrometry, mass spectrometry and elemental analyses. [(3) H]-ryanodine binding, lipid bilayer and time-lapsed confocal imaging were used to determine their effects on RyR isoforms. KEY RESULTS The major product, 2-cyclohexyl-3-cyclohexylimino-2, 3, dihydro-pyrrolo[1,2-c]imidazol-1-one (CCDI) dose-dependently potentiated Ca(2+)-dependent binding of [(3)H]-ryanodine to RyR1, with no significant effects on [(3)H]-ryanodine binding to RyR2 or RyR3. CCDI also reversibly increased the open probability (P(o)) of RyR1 with minimal effects on RyR2 and RyR3. CCDI induced Ca(2+) transients in C2C12 skeletal myotubes, but not in rat ventricular myocytes. This effect was blocked by pretreating cells with ryanodine. The minor product 2-cyclohexyl-pyrrolo[1,2-c]imidazole-1,3-dione had no effect on either [(3)H]-ryanodine binding or P(o) of RyR1, RyR2 and RyR3. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS A new ligand that preferentially modulates RyR1 was identified. In addition to being an important research tool, the pharmacophore of this small molecule could serve as a template for the synthesis of other isoform-selective modulators of RyRs.

Abstract
In mammalian skeletal muscle, Ca(2+) release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) through the ryanodine receptor/Ca(2+)-release channel RyR1 can be enhanced by S-oxidation or S-nitrosylation of separate Cys residues, which are allosterically linked. S-Oxidation of RyR1 is coupled to muscle oxygen tension (pO2) through O2-dependent production of hydrogen peroxide by SR-resident NADPH oxidase 4. In isolated SR (SR vesicles), an average of six to eight Cys thiols/RyR1 monomer are reversibly oxidized at high (21% O2) versus low pO2 (1% O2), but their identity among the 100 Cys residues/RyR1 monomer is unknown. Here we use isotope-coded affinity tag labeling and mass spectrometry (yielding 93% coverage of RyR1 Cys residues) to identify 13 Cys residues subject to pO2-coupled S-oxidation in SR vesicles. Eight additional Cys residues are oxidized at high versus low pO2 only when NADPH levels are supplemented to enhance NADPH oxidase 4 activity. pO2-sensitive Cys residues were largely non-overlapping with those identified previously as hyperreactive by administration of exogenous reagents (three of 21) or as S-nitrosylated. Cys residues subject to pO2-coupled oxidation are distributed widely within the cytoplasmic domain of RyR1 in multiple functional domains implicated in RyR1 activity-regulating interactions with the L-type Ca(2+) channel (dihydropyridine receptor) and FK506-binding protein 12 as well as in "hot spot" regions containing sites of mutation implicated in malignant hyperthermia and central core disease. pO2-coupled disulfide formation was identified, whereas neither S-glutathionylated nor sulfenamide-modified Cys residues were observed. Thus, physiological redox regulation of RyR1 by endogenously generated hydrogen peroxide is exerted through dynamic disulfide formation involving multiple Cys residues.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are emerging as centre-stage players in cardiac functional regulation. ROS and Ca(2+) signals converge at dyads, the structural and functional units of cardiac excitation-contraction coupling. These two prominent signalling systems are intertwined with ROS modulation of the entire Ca(2+)-signalling network, and vice versa. While constitutively generated homoeostatic ROS are important in setting the redox potential of the intracellular milieu, dynamic signalling ROS shape microdomain and global Ca(2+) signals on both the beat-to-beat and greater time scales. However, ROS effects are complex and subtle, characterized by multiphasic and bidirectional Ca(2+) responses; and sustained oxidative stress may lead to compromised contractility and arrhythmogenicity. These new understandings should be leveraged to harness ROS for their beneficial roles while avoiding deleterious effects in the heart.

Abstract
The observation that muscular exercise is associated with oxidative stress in humans was first reported over 30 years ago. Since this initial report, numerous studies have confirmed that prolonged or high-intensity exercise results in oxidative damage to macromolecules in both blood and skeletal muscle. Although the primary tissue(s) responsible for reactive oxygen species (ROS) production during exercise remains a topic of debate, compelling evidence indicates that muscular activity promotes oxidant production in contracting skeletal muscle fibers. Mitochondria, NADPH oxidase, PLA₂-dependent processes, and xanthine oxidase have all been postulated to contribute to contraction-induced ROS production in muscle but the primary site of contraction-induced ROS production in muscle fibers remains unclear. Nonetheless, contraction-induced ROS generation has been shown to play an important physiological function in the regulation of both muscle force production and contraction-induced adaptive responses of muscle fibers to exercise training. Although knowledge in the field of exercise and oxidative stress has grown markedly during the past 30 years, this area continues to expand and there is much more to be learned about the role of ROS as signaling molecules in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
The nitric oxide (NO(•)) sibling, nitroxyl or nitrosyl hydride (HNO), is emerging as a molecule whose pharmacological properties include providing functional support to failing hearts. HNO also preconditions myocardial tissue, protecting it against ischemia-reperfusion injury while exerting vascular antiproliferative actions. In this review, HNO's peculiar cardiovascular assets are discussed in light of its unique chemistry that distinguish HNO from NO(•) as well as from reactive oxygen and nitrogen species such as the hydroxyl radical and peroxynitrite. Included here is a discussion of the possible routes of HNO formation in the myocardium and its chemical targets in the heart. HNO has been shown to have positive inotropic/lusitropic effects under normal and congestive heart failure conditions in animal models. The mechanistic intricacies of the beneficial cardiac effects of HNO are examined in cellular models. In contrast to β-receptor/cyclic adenosine monophosphate/protein kinase A-dependent enhancers of myocardial performance, HNO uses its "thiophylic" nature as a vehicle to interact with redox switches such as cysteines, which are located in key components of the cardiac electromechanical machinery ruling myocardial function. Here, we will briefly review new features of HNO's cardiovascular effects that when combined with its positive inotropic/lusitropic action may render HNO donors an attractive addition to the current therapeutic armamentarium for treating patients with acutely decompensated congestive heart failure.

Abstract
It is well established that contracting muscles produce both reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. Although the sources of oxidant production during exercise continue to be debated, growing evidence suggests that mitochondria are not the dominant source. Regardless of the sources of oxidants in contracting muscles, intense and prolonged exercise can result in oxidative damage to both proteins and lipids in the contracting myocytes. Further, oxidants regulate numerous cell signaling pathways and modulate the expression of many genes. This oxidant-mediated change in gene expression involves changes at transcriptional, mRNA stability, and signal transduction levels. Furthermore, numerous products associated with oxidant-modulated genes have been identified and include antioxidant enzymes, stress proteins, and mitochondrial electron transport proteins. Interestingly, low and physiological levels of reactive oxygen species are required for normal force production in skeletal muscle, but high levels of reactive oxygen species result in contractile dysfunction and fatigue. Ongoing research continues to explore the redox-sensitive targets in muscle that are responsible for both redox regulation of muscle adaptation and oxidant-mediated muscle fatigue.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia is an indication of poor outcome for heart attack patients, even for nondiabetic patients with stress-induced hyperglycemia. Previous studies showed that inhibition of aldose reductase, the first and rate-limiting enzyme of the polyol pathway, attenuated contractile dysfunction in diabetic animals, but the mechanism is unclear. We therefore wanted to find out whether the polyol pathway also contributes to acute hyperglycemia-induced cardiac contractile dysfunction, and determine the mechanism involved. Rat hearts were isolated and retrogradely perfused with Krebs buffer containing either normal or high concentrations of glucose for 2 h. Short exposure to high-glucose medium led to contractile dysfunction as indicated by decreased -dP/dt(max), as well as elevation in left ventricular end-diastolic pressure. Cardiomyocytes incubated in high-glucose medium showed abnormal Ca2+ signaling, most likely because of decreased activity of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) inactivated by oxidative stress. Inhibition of aldose reductase or sorbitol dehydrogenase, the second enzyme in the polyol pathway, ameliorated contractile dysfunction, attenuated oxidative stress, and normalized Ca2+ signaling and SERCA activity caused by high glucose, indicating that the polyol pathway is the major contributor to acute hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress leading to the inactivation of SERCA and contractile dysfunction.

Abstract
Mitochondria form junctions with the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (SR/ER), which support signal transduction and biosynthetic pathways and affect organellar distribution. Recently, these junctions have received attention because of their pivotal role in mediating calcium signal propagation to the mitochondria, which is important for both ATP production and mitochondrial cell death. Many of the SR/ER-mitochondrial calcium transporters and signaling proteins are sensitive to redox regulation and are directly exposed to the reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced in the mitochondria and SR/ER. Although ROS has been emerging as a novel signaling entity, the redox signaling of the SR/ER-mitochondrial interface is yet to be elucidated. We describe here possible mechanisms of the mutual interaction between local Ca(2+) and ROS signaling in the control of SR/ER-mitochondrial function.

Abstract
The first suggestion that physical exercise results in free radical-mediated damage to tissues appeared in 1978, and the past three decades have resulted in a large growth of knowledge regarding exercise and oxidative stress. Although the sources of oxidant production during exercise continue to be debated, it is now well established that both resting and contracting skeletal muscles produce reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species. Importantly, intense and prolonged exercise can result in oxidative damage to both proteins and lipids in the contracting myocytes. Furthermore, oxidants can modulate a number of cell signaling pathways and regulate the expression of multiple genes in eukaryotic cells. This oxidant-mediated change in gene expression involves changes at transcriptional, mRNA stability, and signal transduction levels. Furthermore, numerous products associated with oxidant-modulated genes have been identified and include antioxidant enzymes, stress proteins, DNA repair proteins, and mitochondrial electron transport proteins. Interestingly, low and physiological levels of reactive oxygen species are required for normal force production in skeletal muscle, but high levels of reactive oxygen species promote contractile dysfunction resulting in muscle weakness and fatigue. Ongoing research continues to probe the mechanisms by which oxidants influence skeletal muscle contractile properties and to explore interventions capable of protecting muscle from oxidant-mediated dysfunction.

Abstract
Abnormal cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) function is recognized as an important factor in the pathogenesis of heart failure (HF). However, the specific molecular causes underlying RyR2 defects in HF remain poorly understood. In the present study, we used a canine model of chronic HF to test the hypothesis that the HF-related alterations in RyR2 function are caused by posttranslational modification by reactive oxygen species generated in the failing heart. Experimental approaches included imaging of cytosolic ([Ca(2+)](c)) and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) luminal Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)]SR) in isolated intact and permeabilized ventricular myocytes and single RyR2 channel recording using the planar lipid bilayer technique. The ratio of reduced to oxidized glutathione, as well as the level of free thiols on RyR2 decreased markedly in failing versus control hearts consistent with increased oxidative stress in HF. RyR2-mediated SR Ca(2+) leak was significantly enhanced in permeabilized myocytes, resulting in reduced [Ca(2+)](SR) in HF compared to control cells. Both SR Ca(2+) leak and [Ca(2+)](SR) were partially normalized by treating HF myocytes with reducing agents. Conversely, oxidizing agents accelerated SR Ca(2+) leak and decreased [Ca(2+)](SR) in cells from normal hearts. Moreover, exposure to antioxidants significantly improved intracellular Ca(2+)-handling parameters in intact HF myocytes. Single RyR2 channel activity was significantly higher in HF versus control because of increased sensitivity to activation by luminal Ca(2+) and was partially normalized by reducing agents through restoring luminal Ca(2+) sensitivity oxidation of control RyR2s enhanced their luminal Ca(2+) sensitivity, thus reproducing the HF phenotype. These findings suggest that redox modification contributes to abnormal function of RyR2s in HF, presenting a potential therapeutic target for treating HF.

Abstract
The ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are intracellular Ca2+ release channels of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) involved in many cellular responses, including muscle excitation-contraction coupling. Multiple biochemical and biophysical methods are available to study RyR functions. However, most of them are somewhat limited because they can only be used to examine channels which are purified from the SR and no longer in their natural environment. In this review we discuss optical methods for studying RyR functions in situ. We describe several techniques for the investigation of local (microscopic) intracellular Ca2+ signals (a.k.a Ca2+ sparks) by means of confocal microscopy and flash photolysis of caged compounds. We discuss how these studies can and will continue to contribute to our understanding of RyR function in physiological and pathological conditions.

Abstract
Studies done many years ago established unequivocally the key role of calcium as a universal second messenger. In contrast, the second messenger roles of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species have emerged only recently. Therefore, their contributions to physiological cell signaling pathways have not yet become universally accepted, and many biological researchers still regard them only as cellular noxious agents. Furthermore, it is becoming increasingly apparent that there are significant interactions between calcium and redox species, and that these interactions modify a variety of proteins that participate in signaling transduction pathways and in other fundamental cellular functions that determine cell life or death. This review article addresses first the central aspects of calcium and redox signaling pathways in animal cells, and continues with the molecular mechanisms that underlie crosstalk between calcium and redox signals under a number of physiological or pathological conditions. To conclude, the review focuses on conditions that, by promoting cellular oxidative stress, lead to the generation of abnormal calcium signals, and how this calcium imbalance may cause a variety of human diseases including, in particular, degenerative diseases of the central nervous system and cardiac pathologies.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species serve as second messengers for signal transduction; however, molecular targets of oxidant signaling have not been defined. Here, we show that ligand–receptor–mediated signaling promotes reactive oxygen species–dependent protein carbonylation. Treatment of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells with endothelin-1 increased protein carbonyls. Carbonylation of the majority of proteins occurred transiently, suggesting that there is also a mechanism for decarbonylation induced by endothelin-1. Decarbonylation was suppressed by inhibition of thioredoxin reductase, and cellular thioredoxin was upregulated during the decarbonylation phase. These results indicate that endothelin-1 promotes oxidant signaling as well as thioredoxin-mediated reductive signaling to regulate carbonylation and decarbonylation mechanisms. In cells treated with endothelin receptor antagonists, hydrogen peroxide scavengers, or an iron chelator, we identified, via mass spectrometry, proteins that are carbonylated in a receptor- and Fenton reaction–dependent manner, including annexin A1, which promotes apoptosis and suppresses cell growth. Carbonylation of annexin A1 by endothelin-1 was followed by proteasome-dependent degradation of this protein. We propose that carbonylation and subsequent degradation of annexin A1 may play a role in endothelin-mediated cell growth and survival, important events in pulmonary vascular remodeling. Protein carbonylation in response to ligand–receptor interactions represents a novel mechanism in redox signaling.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle fibers continually generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) at a slow rate that increases during muscle contraction. This activity-dependent increase in ROS production contributes to fatigue of skeletal muscle during strenuous exercise. Existing data suggest that muscle-derived ROS primarily act on myofibrillar proteins to inhibit calcium sensitivity and depress force. Decrements in calcium sensitivity and force are acutely reversible by dithiothreitol, a thiol-selective reducing agent. These observations suggest that thiol modifications on one or more regulatory proteins are responsible for oxidant-induced losses during fatigue. More intense ROS exposure leads to losses in calcium regulation that mimic pathologic changes and are not reversible. Studies in humans, quadrupeds, and isolated muscle preparations indicate that antioxidant pretreatment can delay muscle fatigue. In humans, this phenomenon is best defined for N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a reduced thiol donor that supports glutathione resynthesis. NAC has been shown to inhibit fatigue in healthy adults during electrical muscle activation, inspiratory resistive loading, handgrip exercise, and intense cycling. These findings identify ROS as endogenous mediators of muscle fatigue and highlight the importance of future research to (a) define the cellular mechanism of ROS action and (b) develop antioxidants as novel therapeutic interventions for treating fatigue.

Abstract
Brain aging is associated with a progressive imbalance between antioxidant defenses and intracellular concentrations of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as exemplified by increases in products of lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation, and DNA oxidation. Oxidative conditions cause not only structural damage but also changes in the set points of redox-sensitive signaling processes including the insulin receptor signaling pathway. In the absence of insulin, the otherwise low insulin receptor signaling is strongly enhanced by oxidative conditions. Autophagic proteolysis and sirtuin activity, in turn, are downregulated by the insulin signaling pathway, and impaired autophagic activity has been associated with neurodegeneration. In genetic studies, impairment of insulin receptor signaling causes spectacular lifespan extension in nematodes, fruit flies, and mice. The predicted effects of age-related oxidative stress on sirtuins and autophagic activity and the corresponding effects of antioxidants remain to be tested experimentally. However, several correlates of aging have been shown to be ameliorated by antioxidants. Oxidative damage to mitochondrial DNA and the electron transport chain, perturbations in brain iron and calcium homeostasis, and changes in plasma cysteine homeostasis may altogether represent causes and consequences of increased oxidative stress. Aging and cognitive decline thus appear to involve changes at multiple nodes within a complex regulatory network.

Abstract
Calcium plays an integral role in cellular function. It is a well-recognized second messenger necessary for signaling cellular responses, but in excessive amounts can be deleterious to function, causing cell death. The main route by which calcium enters the cytoplasm is either from the extracellular compartment or internal addistores via calcium channels. There is good evidence that calcium channels can respond to pharmacological compounds that reduce or oxidize thiol groups on the channel protein. In addition, reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide and superoxide that can mediate oxidative pathology also mediate changes in channel function via alterations of thiol groups. This review looks at the structure and function of calcium channels, the evidence that changes in cellular redox state mediate changes in channel function, and the role of redox modification of channels in disease processes. Understanding how redox modification of the channel protein alters channel structure and function is providing leads for the design of therapeutic interventions that target oxidative stress responses.

Abstract
The skeletal muscle Ca(2+)-release channel (ryanodine receptor type 1 (RyR1)) is a redox sensor, susceptible to reversible S-nitrosylation, S-glutathionylation, and disulfide oxidation. So far, Cys-3635 remains the only cysteine residue identified as functionally relevant to the redox sensing properties of the channel. We demonstrate that expression of the C3635A-RyR1 mutant in RyR1-null myotubes alters the sensitivity of the ryanodine receptor to activation by voltage, indicating that Cys-3635 is involved in voltage-gated excitation-contraction coupling. However, H(2)O(2) treatment of C3635A-RyR1 channels or wild-type RyR1, following their expression in human embryonic kidney cells, enhances [(3)H]ryanodine binding to the same extent, suggesting that cysteines other than Cys-3635 are responsible for the oxidative enhancement of channel activity. Using a combination of Western blotting and sulfhydryl-directed fluorescent labeling, we found that two large regions of RyR1 (amino acids 1-2401 and 3120-4475), previously shown to be involved in disulfide bond formation, are also major sites of both S-nitrosylation and S-glutathionylation. Using selective isotopecoded affinity tag labeling of RyR1 and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectroscopy, we identified, out of the 100 cysteines in each RyR1 subunit, 9 that are endogenously modified (Cys-36, Cys-315, Cys-811, Cys-906, Cys-1591, Cys-2326, Cys-2363, Cys-3193, and Cys-3635) and another 3 residues that were only modified with exogenous redox agents (Cys-253, Cys-1040, and Cys-1303). We also identified the types of redox modification each of these cysteines can undergo. In summary, we have identified a discrete subset of cysteines that are likely to be involved in the functional response of RyR1 to different redox modifications (S-nitrosylation, S-glutathionylation, and oxidation to disulfides).

The proteins in the complex were analysed by electrophoresis, Western blot and electron microscopy. RESULTS (1) Hydrogen peroxide induces inter-subunit cross-linking within the tetrameric RyR1 molecule; (2) in parallel to inter-subunit cross-linking, the RyR1 molecule changes morphology; (3) the chemical and morphological changes are reversible: upon reduction by reducing agents, the RyR1 molecule regains its original state. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that the molecular mechanism of RyR1 channel activity in sarcoplasmic reticulum regulated by hydrogen peroxide is through inter-subunit cross-linking within the tetrameric RyR1 molecule, which in turn induces structural changes of RyR1.

Abstract
Sympathetic nerves arising from the superior cervical ganglion (SCG) protect the cerebrovasculature during periods of acute hypertension and may play a role in homeostasis of target organs. The functions of these nerves depend on calcium release triggered by activation of ryanodine receptor (RyR) channels. The function of RyR channels is in part dependent on genetic expression and regulation by numerous protein modulators such as neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) neurons also found in the SCG. We have shown that release of calcium in SCG cells is altered during late maturation and advancing age. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms that may in part account for these data are elusive. Therefore we used molecular techniques to test the hypothesis that advancing age alters the pattern of genetic expression and/or protein levels of RyRs and their modulation by nNOS in the SCG in F344 rats aged 6, 12, and 24 mo. Surprisingly, ryr1 expression was undetectable in all age groups and ryr2 and ryr3 are the predominantly transcribed isoforms in the adult rat SCG. mRNA and protein levels for RyR2 isoform did not change with advancing age. However, ryr3 mRNA levels increased from 6 to 12 mo and declined from 12 to 24 mo. Similarly, RyR3 receptor protein levels also increased from 6 to 12 mo and declined from 12 to 24 mo. Because nNOS and the phosphorylation of the RyRs have been shown to modulate the function of RyRs, total phosphorylation and nNOS protein levels were analyzed in all age groups. Phosphorylation levels of the RyRs were similar in all age groups. However, nNOS protein levels increased from 6 to 12 mo followed by decline from 12 to 24 mo. These data suggest that advancing age selectively impacts the genetic expression and protein levels of RyR3 as well as modulatory nNOS protein levels. In addition, these data may part provide some insight into the possible changes in the function of RyRs that may occur with the normal aging process.

Abstract
For the last half century, scientists have studied the biological importance of free radicals in respiratory and limb muscles. We now know that muscle fibers continually produce both reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) and that both cascades play critical roles in contractile regulation. Under basal conditions, muscle-derived ROS and NO exert opposing effects. Low-level ROS activity is an essential part of the homeostatic milieu and is required for normal force production whereas NO derivatives function as a brake on the system, limiting force. The modulatory effects of ROS and NO are disrupted by conditions that exaggerate production including mechanical unloading, inflammatory disease, and strenuous exercise. Marked increases in ROS or NO levels cause contractile dysfunction, resulting in muscle weakness and fatigue. These principles provide a foundation for ongoing research to identify the mechanisms of ROS and NO action and develop interventions that protect muscle function.

Abstract
Calcium signalling is an important process underlying neuronal function and consequently behaviour. The release of calcium from intracellular stores via the ryanodine receptor calcium release (RyR) channel has been implicated in both synaptic plasticity and to a limited extent in memory processing. While past investigations have suggested a role for RyR channels in long-term memory, the present study suggests their action is more complex. Using a single trial passive avoidance task developed for the day-old chick, it is proposed that RyR channels are necessary both prior to the expression of long-term memory and also in retrieval processes. Specifically, 5 mM dantrolene (a specific RyR channel blocker) resulted in a persistent retention loss from 40 min post-training while 10 nM dantrolene produced a transient retention loss centred at 40 min post-training. We speculate that in the context of memory formation, RyR channels may be activated by nitric oxide and in the context of memory retrieval may lead to the activation of large conductance calcium-activated potassium BK(Ca) channels which, when blocked by 50 nM iberiotoxin, also demonstrated a transient retention loss centred at 40 min post-training.

Abstract
Oxidation and reduction (redox) are known to modulate the function of a variety of ion channels. Here, we report a redox regulation of the function of ClC-0, a chloride (Cl(-)) channel from the Torpedo electric organ. The study was motivated by the occasional observation of oocytes with hyperpolarization-activated Cl(-) current when these oocytes expressed ClC-0. We find that these atypical recording traces can be turned into typical ClC-0 current by incubating the oocyte in millimolar concentrations of reducing agents, suggesting that the channel function is regulated by oxidation and reduction. The redox control apparently results from an effect of oxidation on the slow (inactivation) gating: oxidation renders it more difficult for the channel to recover from the inactivated states. Introducing the point mutation C212S in ClC-0 suppresses the inactivation state, and this inactivation-suppressed mutant is no longer sensitive to the inhibition by oxidizing reagents. However, C212 is probably not the target for the redox reaction because the regulation of the inactivation gating by oxidation is still present in a pore mutant (K165C/K165 heterodimer) in which the C212S mutation is present. Taking advantage of the K165C/K165 heterodimer, we further explore the oxidation effect in ClC-0 by methane thiosulfonate (MTS) modifications. We found that trimethylethylammonium MTS modification of the introduced cysteine can induce current in the K165C/K165 heterodimer, an effect attributed to the recovery of the channel from the inactivation state. The current induction by MTS reagents is subjected to redox controls, and thus the extent of this current induction can serve as an indicator to report the oxidation state of the channel. These results together suggest that the inactivation gating of ClC-0 is affected by redox regulation. The finding also provides a convenient method to "cure" those atypical recording traces of ClC-0 expressed in Xenopus oocytes.

Abstract
Calcium plays a key role in both apoptotic and necrotic cell death. Emptying of intracellular calcium stores and/or alteration in intracellular calcium levels can modulate cell death in almost all cell types. These calcium fluxes are determined by the activity of membrane channels normally under tight control. The channels may be ligand activated or voltage dependent as well as being under the control of affector molecules such as calmodulin. It has become increasingly apparent that many calcium channels are affected by reactive oxygen or reactive nitrogen species; ROS/RNS. This may be part of the normal signaling pathways in the cell or by the action of exogenously generated ROS or RNS often by toxins. This review covers the recent literature on the activity of these redox active channels as related to cell death.

Abstract
Environmental contaminants have been shown to alter growth-regulating signaling pathways through molecular mechanisms that are mainly unclear. Here we report that within a narrow concentration range (0.5-1 microM) methyl mercury (MeHg) significantly stimulated growth of MCF-7 cells, induced Ca(2+) mobilization, and activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (1/2) (Erk1/2). MeHg modulated E(2)-dependent stimulation of growth in a dose-dependent manner, although MeHg neither suppresses nor increases constitutive E(2) metabolism. MeHg demonstrated weak estrogen receptor (ER)-binding ability. However, long preincubation with antiestrogens LY(156,758) and ICI(164,384) decreased MeHg-induced foci formation, Ca(2+) mobilization, and Erk1/2 activation, confirming involvement of ERs. The MeHg-induced increase in [Ca(2+)](i) was observed to coincide with enhanced Erk1/2 phosphorylation. These data suggest that MeHg can significantly modulate the intracellular signaling environment in MCF-7 cells, resulting in a dose-dependent alteration of ER-mediated estrogenic capacity and therefore should be considered as a potential estrogen-disrupting compound.

Abstract
NADH and Ca2+ have important regulatory functions in cardiomyocytes related to excitation-contraction coupling and ATP production. To elucidate elements of these functions, we examined the effect of NADH on sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release and the mechanisms of this regulation. Physiological concentrations of cytosolic NADH inhibited ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2)-mediated Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) from SR membranes (IC50=120 micromol/L) and significantly lowered single channel open probability. In permeabilized single ventricular cardiomyocytes, NADH significantly inhibited the amplitude and frequency of spontaneous Ca2+ release. Blockers of electron transport prevented the inhibitory effect of NADH on CICR in isolated membranes and permeabilized cells, as well as on the activity of RyR2 channels reconstituted in lipid bilayer. An endogenous NADH oxidase activity from rat heart copurified with SR enriched with RyR2. A significant contribution by mitochondria was excluded as NADH oxidation by SR exhibited >9-fold higher catalytic activity (8.8 micromol/mg protein per minute) in the absence of exogenous mitochondrial complex I (ubiquinone) or complex III (cytochrome c) electron acceptors, but was inhibited by rotenone and pyridaben (IC50=2 to 3 nmol/L), antimycin A (IC50=13 nmol/L), and diphenyleneiodonium (IC50=28 micromol/L). Cardiac junctional SR treated with [3H](trifluoromethyl)diazirinyl-pyridaben specifically labeled a single 23-kDa PSST-like protein. These data indicate that NADH oxidation is tightly linked to, and essential for, negative regulation of the RyR2 complex and is a likely component of an important physiological negative-feedback mechanism coupling SR Ca2+ fluxes and mitochondrial energy production.

Abstract
The skeletal muscle Ca(2+) release channel/ryanodine receptor (RyR1) contains approximately 50 thiols per subunit. These thiols have been grouped according to their reactivity/responsiveness toward NO, O(2), and glutathione, but the molecular mechanism enabling redox active molecules to modulate channel activity is poorly understood. In the case of NO, very low concentrations (submicromolar) activate RyR1 by S-nitrosylation of a single cysteine residue (Cys-3635), which resides within a calmodulin binding domain. S-Nitrosylation of Cys-3635 only takes place at physiological tissue O(2) tension (pO(2); i.e. approximately 10 mm Hg) but not at pO(2) approximately 150 mm Hg. Two explanations have been offered for the loss of RyR1 responsiveness to NO at ambient pO(2), i.e. Cys-3635 is oxidized by O(2) versus O(2) subserves an allosteric function (Eu, J. P., Sun, J. H., Xu, L., Stamler, J. S., and Meissner, G. (2000) Cell 102, 499-509). Here we report that the NO donors NOC-12 and S-nitrosoglutathione both activate RyR1 by release of NO but do so independently of pO(2). Moreover, NOC-12 activates the channel by S-nitrosylation of Cys-3635 and thereby reverses channel inhibition by calmodulin. In contrast, S-nitrosoglutathione activates RyR1 by oxidation and S-nitrosylation of thiols other than Cys-3635 (and calmodulin is not involved). Our results suggest that the effect of pO(2) on RyR1 S-nitrosylation is exerted through an allosteric mechanism.

Abstract
There is increasing evidence that intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a role in cell signaling and that the NADPH oxidase is a major source of ROS in endothelial cells. At low concentrations, agonist stimulation of membrane receptors generates intracellular ROS and repetitive oscillations of intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in human endothelial cells. The present study was performed to examine whether ROS are important in the generation or maintenance of [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations in human aortic endothelial cells (HAEC) stimulated by histamine. Histamine (1 microm) increased the fluorescence of 2',7'-dihydrodichlorofluorescin diacetate in HAEC, an indicator of ROS production. This was partially inhibited by the NADPH oxidase inhibitor diphenyleneiodonium (DPI, 10 microm), by the farnesyltransferase inhibitor H-Ampamb-Phe-Met-OH (2 microm), and in HAEC transiently expressing Rac1(N17), a dominant negative allele of the protein Rac1, which is essential for NADPH oxidase activity. In indo 1-loaded HAEC, 1 microm histamine triggered [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations that were blocked by DPI or H-Ampamb-Phe-Met-OH. Histamine-stimulated [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations were not observed in HAEC lacking functional Rac1 protein but were observed when transfected cells were simultaneously exposed to a low concentration of hydrogen peroxide (10 microm), which by itself did not alter either [Ca(2+)](i) or levels of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins-1,4,5-P(3)). Thus, histamine generates ROS in HAEC at least partially via NADPH oxidase activation. NADPH oxidase-derived ROS are critical to the generation of [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations in HAEC during histamine stimulation, perhaps by increasing the sensitivity of the endoplasmic reticulum to Ins-1,4,5-P(3).

Abstract
Coenzyme Q is well defined as a crucial component of the oxidative phosphorylation process in mitochondria which converts the energy in carbohydrates and fatty acids into ATP to drive cellular machinery and synthesis. New roles for coenzyme Q in other cellular functions are only becoming recognized. The new aspects have developed from the recognition that coenzyme Q can undergo oxidation/reduction reactions in other cell membranes such as lysosomes. Golgi or plasma membranes. In mitochondria and lysosomes, coenzyme Q undergoes reduction/oxidation cycles during which it transfers protons across the membrane to form a proton gradient. The presence of high concentrations of quinol in all membranes provides a basis for antioxidant action either by direct reaction with radicals or by regeneration of tocopherol and ascorbate. Evidence for a function in redox control of cell signaling and gene expression is developing from studies on coenzyme Q stimulation of cell growth, inhibition of apoptosis, control of thiol groups, formation of hydrogen peroxide and control of membrane channels. Deficiency of coenzyme Q has been described based on failure of biosynthesis caused by gene mutation, inhibition of biosynthesis by HMG coA reductase inhibitors (statins) or for unknown reasons in ageing and cancer. Correction of deficiency requires supplementation with higher levels of coenzyme Q than are available in the diet.

Abstract
Ryanoids have not attained importance as insecticides, but the increasing number of xenobiotic effectors known to influence Ca2+ signalling by interaction with ryanodine receptors (RyRs) may serve to identify new targets for insect control. A historical review of redox control of microsomal Ca2+ transport is given here, followed by recent evidence indicating that hyperactive Cys residues are an essential component of a transmembrane redox sensor. Focus is on the role of sulfhydryl chemistry in RyR regulation; metabolic quinonoid intermediates from pesticides and other environmental contaminants are of interest in this context.

Abstract
Over the past decade, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) derivatives have been established as physiological modulators of skeletal muscle function. This mini-review addresses the roles of these molecules as endogenous regulators of muscle contraction. The article is organized in two parts. First, established concepts are briefly outlined. This section provides an overview of ROS production by muscle, antioxidant buffers that oppose ROS effects, enzymatic synthesis of NO in muscle, the effects of endogenous ROS on contractile function, and NO as a contractile modulator. Second, a selected group of unresolved topics are highlighted. These more controversial issues include putative source(s) of regulatory ROS, the relative importance of the two NO synthase isoforms constitutively coexpressed by muscle fibers, molecular mechanisms of ROS and NO action, and the physiological relevance of redox regulation. By discussing current questions, as well as the established paradigm, this article is intended to further debate and stimulate research in this area.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)R) and ryanodine receptors (RyR) mediate the release of endoplasmic and sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) Ca(2+) stores and regulate Ca(2+) entry through voltage-dependent or ligand-gated channels of the plasma membrane. A prominent property of ER/SR Ca(2+) channels is exquisite sensitivity to sulfhydryl-modifying reagents. A plausible role for sulfhydryl chemistry in physiologic regulation of Ca(2+) release channels and the fidelity of Ca(2+) release from ER/SR is lacking. This study reveals the existence of a transmembrane redox sensor within the RyR1 channel complex that confers tight regulation of channel activity in response to changes in transmembrane redox potential produced by cytoplasmic and luminal glutathione. A transporter selective for glutathione is co-localized with RyR1 within the SR membrane to maintain local redox potential gradients consistent with redox regulation of ER/SR Ca(2+) release. Hyperreactive sulfhydryls previously shown to reside within the RyR1 complex (Liu, G., and Pessah, I. N. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 33028-33034) are an essential biochemical component of a transmembrane redox sensor. Transmembrane redox sensing may represent a fundamental mechanism by which ER/SR Ca(2+) channels respond to localized changes in transmembrane glutathione redox potential produced by physiologic and pathophysiologic modulators of Ca(2+) release from stores.
