Abstract
MAIN CONCLUSION The preservation of quiescent center stem cell integrity in hypoxic roots by phytoglobins is exercised through their ability to scavenge nitric oxide and attenuate its effects on auxin transport and cell degradation. Under low oxygen stress, the retention or induction of phytoglobin expression maintains cell viability while loss or lack of induction of phytoglobin leads to cell degradation. Plants have evolved unique attributes to ensure survival in the environment in which they must exist. Common among the attributes is the ability to maintain stem cells in a quiescent (or low proliferation) state in unfriendly environments. From the seed embryo to meristematic regions of the plant, quiescent stem cells exist to regenerate the organism when environmental conditions are suitable to allow plant survival. Frequently, plants dispose of mature cells or organs in the process of acclimating to the stresses to ensure survival of meristems, the stem cells of which are capable of regenerating cells and organs that have been sacrificed, a feature not generally available to mammals. Most of the research on plant stress responses has dealt with how mature cells respond because of the difficulty of specifically examining plant meristem responses to stress. This raises the question as to whether quiescent stem cells behave in a similar fashion to mature cells in their response to stress and what factors within these critical cells determine whether they survive or degrade when exposed to environmental stress. This review attempts to examine this question with respect to the quiescent center (QC) stem cells of the root apical meristem. Emphasis is put on how varying levels of nitric oxide, influenced by the expression of phytoglobins, affect QC response to hypoxic stress.

Abstract
Alternative oxidase (AOX) is a non-energy conserving terminal oxidase in the plant mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) that has a lower affinity for oxygen than does cytochrome (cyt) oxidase. To investigate the role(s) of AOX under different oxygen conditions, wild-type (WT) Nicotiana tabacum plants were compared with AOX knockdown and overexpression plants under normoxia, hypoxia (near-anoxia), and during a reoxygenation period following hypoxia. Paradoxically, under all the conditions tested, the AOX amount across plant lines correlated positively with leaf energy status (ATP/ADP ratio). Under normoxia, AOX was important to maintain respiratory carbon flow, to prevent the mitochondrial generation of superoxide and nitric oxide (NO), to control lipid peroxidation and protein S-nitrosylation, and possibly to reduce the inhibition of cyt oxidase by NO. Under hypoxia, AOX was again important in preventing superoxide generation and lipid peroxidation, but now contributed positively to NO amount. This may indicate an ability of AOX to generate NO under hypoxia, similar to the nitrite reductase activity of cyt oxidase under hypoxia. Alternatively, it may indicate that AOX activity simply reduces the amount of superoxide scavenging of NO, by reducing the availability of superoxide. The amount of inactivation of mitochondrial aconitase during hypoxia was also dependent upon AOX amount, perhaps through its effects on NO amount, and this influenced carbon flow under hypoxia. Finally, AOX was particularly important in preventing nitro-oxidative stress during the reoxygenation period, thereby contributing positively to the recovery of energy status following hypoxia. Overall, the results suggest that AOX plays a beneficial role in low oxygen metabolism, despite its lower affinity for oxygen than cytochrome oxidase.

Abstract
Hypoxia regularly occurs during plant development and can be induced by the environment through, for example, flooding. To understand how plant tissue physiology responds to progressing oxygen restriction, we aimed to monitor subcellular physiology in real time and in vivo. We establish a fluorescent protein sensor-based system for multiparametric monitoring of dynamic changes in subcellular physiology of living Arabidopsis thaliana leaves and exemplify its applicability for hypoxia stress. By monitoring cytosolic dynamics of magnesium adenosine 5'-triphosphate, free calcium ion concentration, pH, NAD redox status, and glutathione redox status in parallel, linked to transcriptional and metabolic responses, we generate an integrated picture of the physiological response to progressing hypoxia. We show that the physiological changes are surprisingly robust, even when plant carbon status is modified, as achieved by sucrose feeding or extended night. Inhibition of the mitochondrial respiratory chain causes dynamics of cytosolic physiology that are remarkably similar to those under oxygen depletion, highlighting mitochondrial electron transport as a key determinant of the cellular consequences of hypoxia beyond the organelle. A broadly applicable system for parallel in vivo sensing of plant stress physiology is established to map out the physiological context under which both mitochondrial retrograde signalling and low oxygen signalling occur, indicating shared upstream stimuli.

Abstract
Trace metals can have subtle yet chronic impacts on organisms by inducing physiological stress that reduces their survival or impedes their ability to tolerate additional environmental stressors. The toxicity literature indicates, however, that aquatic organisms react differently to trace metals depending on the environments in which they reside. The objective of the present study was to understand the response of northern leopard frog (Lithobates pipiens) larvae to ionic copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), and their combination within an effluent water collected downstream of a tailings wetland area. Tadpoles were assigned randomly to 1 of 8 Cu concentrations (8-200 μg/L), 7 Ni concentrations (160-1200 μg/L), or 8 Cu and Ni combined concentrations (8:160-200:1200 μg/L) and showed significant differences in survival and life history traits among treatments. In the Cu and Cu and Ni combined treatments, tadpole survival decreased with increased Cu exposure starting at Cu = 160 μg/L and in the Ni treatment, tadpole survival decreased with increased Ni exposure starting at Ni = 650 μg/L. All Cu-exposed treatments induced a growth increase as the concentration increased, whereas the tadpoles showed a significant decrease in growth rate in Ni treatments. These contrasting outcomes suggest a plastic response to trace metals whereby tadpoles allocate energy reserves toward either escaping or coping with stress. Finally, the authors' argue that future studies will benefit from examining the impacts of multiple stressors in aquatic ecosystems to provide better environmental mitigation.

Re-evaluation of the near infrared spectra of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase: Implications for non invasive in vivo monitoring of tissues. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-BIOENERGETICS 2014; 1837:1882-1891.

Abstract
We re-determined the near infrared (NIR) spectral signatures (650–980 nm) of the different cytochrome c oxidase redox centres, in the process separating them into their component species. We confirm that the primary contributor to the oxidase NIR spectrum between 700 and 980 nm is cupric CuA, which in the beef heart enzyme has a maximum at 835 nm. The 655 nm band characterises the fully oxidised haem a3/CuB binuclear centre; it is bleached either when one or more electrons are added to the binuclear centre or when the latter is modified by ligands. The resulting ‘perturbed’ binuclear centre is also characterised by a previously unreported broad 715–920 nm band. The NIR spectra of certain stable liganded species (formate and CO), and the unstable oxygen reaction compounds P and F, are similar, suggesting that the latter may resemble the stable species electronically. Oxidoreduction of haem a makes no contribution either to the 835 nm maximum or the 715 nm band. Our results confirm the ability of NIRS to monitor the CuA centre of cytochrome oxidase activity in vivo, although noting some difficulties in precise quantitative interpretations in the presence of perturbations of the haem a3/CuB binuclear centre. The NIR spectrum of cytochrome oxidase was deconvoluted into its component species. The dominant feature between 700 and 980 nm was confirmed as the CuA chromophore. There was no significant contribution from the haem a iron centre. A new feature between 715 and 920 nm was assigned to the haem a3/CuB binuclear centre. Changes in concentrations of oxygen intermediates P and F may be measurable in vivo.

Abstract
In the present study, a cellular level response of Cyto-aa3 oxidation was investigated in real time under both time-varying and strong static magnetic fields of 5 T. Two kinds of cells, a slime mold, Physarum polycephalum, and bone forming cells, MC-3T3-E1, were used for the experiments. The oxidation level of the Cyto-aa3 was calculated by optical absorptions at 690 nm, 780 nm and 830 nm. The sample, fiber-optics and an additional optical fiber for light stimulation were set in a solenoidal coil or the bore of a 5-T superconducting magnet. The solenoidal coil for time-varying magnetic fields produced sinusoidal magnetic fields of 6 mT. The slime mold showed a periodic change in Cyto-aa3 oxidation, and the oxidation-reduction cycle of Cyto-aa3 was apparently changed when visible-light irradiated the slime mold. Similarly to the case with light, time-varying magnetic stimulations changed the oxidation-reduction cycle during and after the stimulation for 10 minutes. The same phenomena were observed in the MC-3T3-E1 cell assembly, although their cycle rhythm was comparatively random. Finally, magnetic field exposure of up to 5 T exhibited a distinct suppression of Cyto-aa3 oscillation in the bone forming cells. Exposure up to 5 T was repeated five times, and the change in Cyto-aa3 oxidation reproducibly occurred.

Abstract
Although near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) was originally designed for clinical monitoring of tissue oxygenation, it has also been developing into a useful tool for neuroimaging studies (functional NIRS). Over the past 30 years, technology has developed and NIRS has found a wide range of applications. However, the accuracy and reliability of NIRS have not yet been widely accepted, mainly because of the difficulties in selective and quantitative detection of signals arising in cerebral tissue, which subject the use of NIRS to a number of practical restrictions. This review summarizes the strengths and advantages of NIRS over other neuroimaging modalities and demonstrates specific examples. The issues of selective quantitative measurement of cerebral haemoglobin during brain activation are also discussed, together with the problems of applying the methods of functional magnetic resonance imaging data analysis to NIRS data analysis. Finally, near-infrared optical tomography--the next generation of NIRS--is described as a potential technique to overcome the limitations of NIRS.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous signaling molecule with a broad spectrum of regulatory functions in plant growth and development. NO has been found to be involved in various pathogenic or symbiotic plant-microbe interactions. During the last decade, increasing evidence of the occurrence of NO during legume-rhizobium symbioses has been reported, from early steps of plant-bacteria interaction, to the nitrogen-fixing step in mature nodules. This review focuses on recent advances on NO production and function in nitrogen-fixing symbiosis. First, the potential plant and bacterial sources of NO, including NO synthase-like, nitrate reductase or electron transfer chains of both partners, are presented. Then responses of plant and bacterial cells to the presence of NO are presented in the context of the N(2)-fixing symbiosis. Finally, the roles of NO as either a regulatory signal of development, or a toxic compound with inhibitory effects on nitrogen fixation, or an intermediate involved in energy metabolism, during symbiosis establishment and nodule functioning are discussed.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a signaling and defense molecule of major importance in living organisms. In the model legume Medicago truncatula, NO production has been detected in the nitrogen fixation zone of the nodule, but the systems responsible for its synthesis are yet unknown and its role in symbiosis is far from being elucidated. In this work, using pharmacological and genetic approaches, we explored the enzymatic source of NO production in M. truncatula-Sinorhizobium meliloti nodules under normoxic and hypoxic conditions. When transferred from normoxia to hypoxia, nodule NO production was rapidly increased, indicating that NO production capacity is present in functioning nodules and may be promptly up-regulated in response to decreased oxygen availability. Contrary to roots and leaves, nodule NO production was stimulated by nitrate and nitrite and inhibited by tungstate, a nitrate reductase inhibitor. Nodules obtained with either plant nitrate reductase RNA interference double knockdown (MtNR1/2) or bacterial nitrate reductase-deficient (napA) and nitrite reductase-deficient (nirK) mutants, or both, exhibited reduced nitrate or nitrite reductase activities and NO production levels. Moreover, NO production in nodules was found to be inhibited by electron transfer chain inhibitors, and nodule energy state (ATP-ADP ratio) was significantly reduced when nodules were incubated in the presence of tungstate. Our data indicate that both plant and bacterial nitrate reductase and electron transfer chains are involved in NO synthesis. We propose the existence of a nitrate-NO respiration process in nodules that could play a role in the maintenance of the energy status required for nitrogen fixation under oxygen-limiting conditions.

Abstract
We simultaneously measured the diffuse reflectance spectra and transmittance spectra of in vitro rat cerebral cortical tissue slices perfused with artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF) in the wavelength range from 500 to 900 nm. An ischemia-like condition in the cortical tissue was induced by oxygen/glucose deprivation (OGD) of the aCSF. Diffuse reflectance and transmittance of the cortical slices were decreased and increased, respectively, during OGD. Spectral data of reduced scattering coefficients and absorption coefficients were estimated by the inverse Monte Carlo simulation for light transport in tissue. As with OGD, significant decrease of the reduced scattering coefficients and alteration of the absorption coefficient spectrum were observed over the measured wavelength range. The mean maximum amplitudes of change in the absorption coefficient at 520, 550, 605, and 830 nm were 0.33 ± 0.14, 0.30 ± 0.12, 0.30 ± 0.14, and -0.04 ± 0.16, respectively, whereas those in the reduced scattering coefficient at 520, 550, 605, and 830 nm were -0.37 ± 0.08, -0.38 ± 0.08, -0.38 ± 0.08, and -0.39 ± 0.08. Variations in the reduced scattering coefficients implied cell deformation mainly due to cell swelling, whereas those in the absorption spectra indicated reductions in heme aa(3) and CuA in cytochrome c oxidase and cytochrome c.

Abstract
High temperature impairs grain filling by inhibiting the deposition of storage materials such as starch and protein. To comprehend its impact on grain filling metabolism in rice (Oryza sativa), levels of metabolites and transcripts related to central pathways of metabolism were simultaneously determined in developing caryopses exposed to high temperature (33 degrees C/28 degrees C) and a control temperature (25 degrees C/20 degrees C) during the milky stage. A capillary electrophoresis-based metabolomic analysis revealed that high temperature increased the accumulation of sucrose and pyruvate/ oxaloacetate-derived amino acids and decreased levels of sugar phosphates and organic acids involved in glycolysis/gluconeogenesis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, respectively. A transcriptomic analysis using a whole genome-covering microarray unraveled the possible metabolic steps causing the shortage of storage materials under the elevated temperature. Starch deposition might be impaired by down-regulation of sucrose import/degradation and starch biosynthesis, and/or up-regulation of starch degradation as well as inefficient ATP production by an inhibited cytochrome respiration chain, as indicated by the response of gene expression to high temperature. Amino acid accumulation might be attributed to the heat-stable import of amino acids into the caryopsis and/or repression of protein synthesis especially the tRNA charging step under high temperature. An atlas showing the effect of high temperature on levels of metabolites and gene expression in the central metabolic pathways is presented.

Abstract
At sufficiently low oxygen concentrations, hemeproteins are deoxygenated and become capable of reducing nitrite to nitric oxide (NO), in a reversal of the reaction in which NO is converted to nitrate or nitrite by oxygenated hemeproteins. The maximum rates of NO production depend on the oxygen avidity. The hemeproteins with the highest avidity, such as hexacoordinate hemoglobins, retain oxygen even under anoxic conditions resulting in their being extremely effective NO scavengers but essentially incapable of producing NO. Deoxyhemeprotein-related NO production can be observed in mitochondria (at the levels of cytochrome c oxidase, cytochrome c, complex III and possibly other sites), in plasma membrane, cytosol, endoplasmic reticulum and peroxisomes. In mitochondria, the use of nitrite as an alternative electron acceptor can contribute to a limited rate of ATP synthesis. Non-heme metal-containing proteins such as nitrate reductase and xanthine oxidase can also be involved in NO production. This will result in a strong anoxic redox flux of nitrogen through the hemoglobin-NO cycle involving nitrate reductase, nitrite: NO reductase, and NO dioxygenase. In normoxic conditions, NO is produced in very low quantities, mainly for signaling purposes and this nitrogen cycling is inoperative.

[PMID: 20350606 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2010.03.060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 114] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2009] [Revised: 03/01/2010] [Accepted: 03/20/2010] [Indexed: 02/03/2023] Open
Abstract
To date, the majority of neurovascular coupling studies focused on the thalamic afferents' activity in layer IV and the corresponding large spiking activity as responsible for functional hyperemia. This paper highlights the role of the secondary and late cortico-cortical transmission in neurovascular coupling. Simultaneous scalp electroencephalography (EEG) and diffuse optical imaging (DOI) measurements were obtained during multiple conditions of event-related electrical forepaw stimulation in 33 male Sprague-Dawley rats divided into 6 groups depending on the maintaining anesthetic - alpha-chloralose, pentobarbital, ketamine-xylazine, fentanyl-droperidol, isoflurane, or propofol. The somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP) were decomposed into four components and the question of which best predicts the hemodynamic responses was investigated. Results of the linear regression analysis show that the hemodynamic response is best correlated with the secondary and late cortico-cortical transmissions and not with the initial thalamic input activity in layer IV. Baseline cerebral blood flow (CBF) interacts with neural activity and influences the evoked hemodynamic responses. Finally, neurovascular coupling appears to be the same across all anesthetics used.

Cross-kingdom comparison of transcriptomic adjustments to low-oxygen stress highlights conserved and plant-specific responses. PLANT PHYSIOLOGY 2010; 152:1484-500. [PMID: 20097791 PMCID: PMC2832244 DOI: 10.1104/pp.109.151845] [Citation(s) in RCA: 244] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2009] [Accepted: 01/14/2010] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
High-throughput technology has facilitated genome-scale analyses of transcriptomic adjustments in response to environmental perturbations with an oxygen deprivation component, such as transient hypoxia or anoxia, root waterlogging, or complete submergence. We showed previously that Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) seedlings elevate the levels of hundreds of transcripts, including a core group of 49 genes that are prioritized for translation across cell types of both shoots and roots. To recognize low-oxygen responses that are evolutionarily conserved versus species specific, we compared the transcriptomic reconfiguration in 21 organisms from four kingdoms (Plantae, Animalia, Fungi, and Bacteria). Sorting of organism proteomes into clusters of putative orthologs identified broadly conserved responses associated with glycolysis, fermentation, alternative respiration, metabolite transport, reactive oxygen species amelioration, chaperone activity, and ribosome biogenesis. Differentially regulated genes involved in signaling and transcriptional regulation were poorly conserved across kingdoms. Strikingly, nearly half of the induced mRNAs of Arabidopsis seedlings encode proteins of unknown function, of which over 40% had up-regulated orthologs in poplar (Populus trichocarpa), rice (Oryza sativa), or Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Sixteen HYPOXIA-RESPONSIVE UNKNOWN PROTEIN (HUP) genes, including four that are Arabidopsis specific, were ectopically overexpressed and evaluated for their effect on seedling tolerance to oxygen deprivation. This allowed the identification of HUPs coregulated with genes associated with anaerobic metabolism and other processes that significantly enhance or reduce stress survival when ectopically overexpressed. These findings illuminate both broadly conserved and plant-specific low-oxygen stress responses and confirm that plant-specific HUPs with limited phylogenetic distribution influence low-oxygen stress endurance.

Abstract
Recent applications of oxygen-sensitive microsensors have demonstrated steep oxygen gradients in developing seeds of various crops. Here, we present an overview on oxygen distribution, major determinants of the oxygen status in the developing seed and implications for seed physiology. The steady-state oxygen concentration in different seed tissues depends on developmental parameters, and is determined to a large extent by environmental factors. Photosynthetic activity of the seed significantly diminishes hypoxic constraints, and can even cause transient, local hyperoxia. Changes in oxygen availability cause rapid adjustments in mitochondrial respiration and global metabolism. We argue that nitric oxide (NO) is a key player in the oxygen balancing process in seeds, avoiding fermentation and anoxia in vivo. Molecular approaches aiming to increase oxygen availability within the seed are discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Under hypoxic conditions, plant mitochondria preserve the capacity to oxidize external NADH, NADPH and tricarboxylic acid cycle substrates. Nitrite serves as an alternative electron acceptor at the level of cytochrome oxidase, with possibly complex III and the alternative oxidase also being involved. Nitric oxide is a significant product of the reaction, which has a high affinity for cytochrome c oxidase, inhibiting it. The excess NO is scavenged by hypoxically induced class 1 haemoglobin in the reaction involving ascorbate. SCOPE By using nitrite, mitochondria retain a limited capacity for ATP synthesis. NADH, produced from glycolysis during anaerobiosis and oxidized in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, should shift the composition of metabolites formed during anaerobiosis with increased conversion of pyruvate to alanine and greater involvement of other transamination reactions, such as those involving gamma-aminobutyric acid formation. CONCLUSIONS Anaerobic mitochondrial metabolism may have a more significant role than previously thought in alleviating the effects of anoxia on plant cells. There is a need to re-examine mitochondrial carbon and nitrogen metabolism under anoxia to establish the extent of this involvement.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a cerebral monitoring method that noninvasively and continuously measures cerebral hemoglobin oxygenation and the redox state of cytochrome oxidase using highly tissue-permeable near-infrared light. This technique now has wide clinical application, and its usefulness in the measurement of cerebral hemoglobin oxygenation has been confirmed under global cerebral injury and/or hypoxemic hypoxia; however, regional cerebral infarction located far from the monitoring site may not be detected by NIRS. Furthermore, the specificity and accuracy of the measurement of the redox state of cytochrome oxidase remain controversial. We apply NIRS to both animal and clinical investigations. Based on these results, we discuss the significance of the measurement of cerebral hemoglobin oxygenation and cytochrome oxidase in vivo and in clinical medicine. Using our algorithm, cytochrome oxidase signals are unaffected by hemoglobin signals, even when hematocrit values change from 35 to 5% under cardiopulmonary bypass in a dog model. In the clinical study, cytochrome oxidase during surgery is likely to be a good (though not perfect) predictor of postoperative cerebral outcome. NIRS appears to be a promising technology, but additional investigations are required to establish its clinical efficacy and justify its routine use during operative and perioperative periods.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study was performed in order to assess the effects of olprinone, a phosphodiesterase III inhibitor, on hepatic oxygen delivery (DO2H), oxygen consumption (VO2H), and mitochondrial oxidation in the liver of a porcine endotoxemia model. METHODS Fourteen pigs received continuous infusion of endotoxin via the portal vein for 240 min. From t = 150 to t = 240 min, animals were randomly divided into two groups to receive saline (control [CONT]; n = 7), or olprinone (OLP; n = 7) via the central vein. RESULTS In the OLP group, prior to olprinone treatment at 150 min, endotoxin induced significant decreases in the cardiac index (CI; from 120 +/- 31 to 65 +/- 13 ml.kg(-1).min(-1); P < 0.01) and DO2H (from 3.58 +/- 0.81 to 1.55 +/- 0.49 ml.kg(-1).min(-1); P < 0.01), while VO2H was maintained. After administration of olprinone (from t = 150 to t = 240 min), CI was unchanged, while DO2H increased from 1.55 +/- 0.49 to 1.93 +/- 0.38 ml.kg(-1).min(-1) (P < 0.01) and VO(2)H increased from 0.42 +/- 0.28 to 0.69 +/- 0.38 ml.kg(-1).min(-1) (P < 0.01). At t = 240 min, the oxidation level of cytochrome aa3 was significantly higher in the OLP group than in the CONT group (OLP, 66.2 +/- 19.3% vs CONT, 26.4 +/- 17.3%; P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Our data for this porcine endotoxemia model suggest that olprinone may have beneficial therapeutic effects in restoring not only systemic and hepatic circulation but also mitochondrial oxidation in the liver.

Abstract
Changes in cerebral cytochrome oxidase (COX) activity, nitric oxide (NO)-cyclic GMP (cGMP) pathway and cholinergic muscarinic receptors (MRs) have been reported in rodents acutely exposed to carbon monoxide (CO). These endpoints measurable in lymphocytes may serve as peripheral markers of CO neurotoxicity. The early and delayed effects of repeated and acute in vivo CO inhalation were investigated on COX activity, cGMP formation and MR binding in rat brain and lymphocytes to assess whether each endpoint was similarly affected both centrally and peripherally. Male Wistar rats either inhaled 500 ppm CO, 6 h/day, 5 days/week, 4 weeks (repeated exposure) or 2,400 ppm, 1 h (single exposure). Neither treatment altered brain or lymphocyte COX activity 1 and 7 days post-treatment. Also ineffective were repeated and acute CO treatments towards (3)H-quinuclidinyl benzilate (QNB) binding to MRs in cerebral cortex, hippocampus, striatum, cerebellum (respective controls, mean+/-S.D.: 171 +/- 45, 245 +/- 53, 263 +/- 14 and 77 +/- 7 fmol/mg protein) and lymphocytes (24 +/- 10 fmol/million cells) at the same time points. In lymphocytes control cGMP levels averaged 1.98 +/- 0.99 pmol/mg protein under basal conditions, and 3.94 +/- 0.55 pmol/mg protein after NO-stimulation. One day after chronic treatment cessation, the CO-treated group displayed about a 50% decrease in both basal and NO-stimulated cGMP values, which persisted up to 7 days after, compared to air-exposed rats. Acutely, CO caused a delayed enhancement (+140%) of NO-induced activation of soluble guanylate cyclase. The finding that the NO-cGMP pathway is a target for the delayed effects of CO in peripheral blood cells is in accordance with our data in brain [Hernández-Viadel, M., Castoldi, A.F., Coccini, T., Manzo, L., Erceg, S., Felipo, V., 2004. In vivo exposure to carbon monoxide causes delayed impairment of activation of soluble guanylate cyclase by nitric oxide in rat brain cortex and cerebellum. Journal of Neurochemistry 89, 1,157-1,165], and supports the use of this peripheral endpoint as a biomarker of CO central effects.

Abstract
It is important to monitor mitochondrial conditions, and light scattering (LS) measurements have been applied to the detection of morphological changes in mitochondria in vivo. Little is known about the morphological and LS responses of brain mitochondria to oxygen withdrawal, a critical factor in cell death. We have therefore investigated the morphological and LS responses of isolated brain mitochondria to anoxia. Anoxia induced an increase in LS, reflecting mitochondrial matrix shrinkage. This response was reversible, but was reduced by adding digitonin, which disrupted the outer membrane selectively. This suggested that integrity of the outer membrane was necessary for the matrix response. We further examined the effects of Mg2+ and ATP on the responses because both exist in cells and modulate the changes in matrix volume. Although Mg2+ and ATP reduced the rates of increase and decrease in LS, respectively, the magnitudes of the increases in LS caused by anoxia stayed at over 80% of the control level (no Mg2+) in the presence of Mg2+ and ATP. This suggested that the increase in LS occurred in cells containing Mg2+ and ATP during anoxia. In contrast, that caused by inhibitors of the electron transport chain was reduced to below 30% of the control level in the presence of Mg2+. The present in vitro study provides a basis for interpretation of LS signals from mitochondria in brain research during oxygen withdrawal.

Abstract
Hypoxic induction of c-fos was studied in rat brains as a function of the cerebral oxygenation state using near-infrared spectroscopy by which the hemoglobin oxygenation state and redox state of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase can be monitored noninvasively. Following reoxygenation after hypoxia, the expression of c-fos and MAP2 mRNAs was determined by reverse transcription-coupled PCR. The expression of MAP2 remained unchanged throughout all conditions from 21 to 8% FiO2. Under the mildly hypoxic conditions, c-fos mRNA was not induced. Hemoglobin was partially deoxygenated but cytochrome oxidase remained fully oxidized. Severe hypoxia, where cytochrome oxidase was reduced, caused a significant induction of c-fos mRNA. At this stage, the oxygen concentration in cerebral tissue fell to lower than 10(-7) M. These data suggest that the decline in oxidative phosphorylation might be a trigger for the induction of c-fos mRNA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To determine the effect of pulsatility during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on cerebral oxygenation, we measured oxyhaemoglobin (HbO2), deoxyhaemoglobin (Hb) and oxidised cytochrome aa3 (CtO2) with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in 14 patients electively scheduled for cardiac surgery. METHODS Cerebral oxygenation was measured during steady state CPB at a core temperature of 32 degrees C. Non-pulsatile flow and pulsatile flow were performed for 10 min each. RESULTS After 14 min of CPB, HbO2, Hb and CtO2 were significantly below prebypass values. HbO2 and CtO2 did not alter with changing flow patterns. Hb significantly increased both during the period of nonpulsatile (median: -0.7 vs. 0.25 micromol/l; P<0.05) and pulsatile flow (median: 0.25 vs. 0.5 micromol/l; P<0.001). This increase was independent of flow pattern. CONCLUSIONS Neither oxygenated haemoglobin, nor intracellular oxygenation, represented by CtO2, indicated a beneficial effect of pulsatile perfusion during hypothermic CPB. These results, however, are only valid for short time effects within 10 min before rewarming from CPB and patients without flow-limiting stenoses of the carotid artery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the effects of hemodilution, PaCO2, PaO2, arterial pressure, and temperature on cerebral oxygenation during mild hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). PARTICIPANTS Fourteen patients electively scheduled for cardiac surgery. INTERVENTIONS Oxyhemoglobin (HbO2), deoxyhemoglobin (Hb), hemoglobin differential (Hb-diff = HbO2-Hb), and oxidized cytochrome aa3 (CtO2) were measured with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) during CPB. RESULTS With onset of CPB, a significant decrease in HbO2 (median, -4.55 micromol/L; 25th to 75th percentile, -5.5 to -3.1; p < 0.05), Hb-diff (median, -3.88 micromol/L; 25th to 75th percentile, -4.7 to -1.9; p < 0.05), and CtO2 (median, -0.05 micromol/L; 25th to 75th percentile, -0.15 to 0; p < 0.001) occurred. The simultaneous decrease in arterial hemoglobin concentration (from 11.7 to 8.5 g/100 mL, p < 0.005) correlated significantly with changes in HbO2 (r2 = 0.71; p < 0.001), Hb-diff (r2 = 0.59; p < 0.005), and CtO2 (r2 = 0.57; p < 0.005). After 24 minutes of CPB, the largest decline in HbO2 (-5.03 micromol/L) and Hb-diff (-5.68 micromol/L) was recorded, whereas CtO2 showed no changes during cooling. During CPB, Hb and Hb-diff significantly correlated with the duration of CPB, PaO2 and PaCO2. CONCLUSIONS In early stages of CPB, a diminished cerebral oxygen supply was found, which may be caused by acute hemodilution. Despite an increased extraction of oxygen as demonstrated by the decrease in Hb-diff, cerebral energy balance reflected by CtO2 was maintained within a safe range during cooling. Because NIRS measures regional cerebral oxygenation, it is useful as an adjunct to global measures in the early noninvasive detection of cerebral hypoxia.

Abstract
We demonstrated in a previous study [Takahashi, E., K. Sato, H. Endoh, Z.-L. Xu, and K. Doi. Am. J. Physiol. 275 (Heart Circ. Physiol. 44): H225-H233, 1998] that significant radial gradients of intracellular PO2 may be produced in an uncoupled actively respiring, single isolated cardiomyocyte of the rat. The present study was designed to further determine whether such intracellular PO2 gradients can be a limiting factor of oxidative metabolism in uncoupled cardiomyocytes. The NAD(P)H fluorescence of a single cardiomyocyte was captured by a digital charge-coupled device camera and quantitated with a subcellular spatial resolution by a ratio-imaging technique. In the conditions that we demonstrated significant radial PO2 gradients (cells treated with 1 microM carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone and superfused with 2.09% or 3.14% O2 gas at 27 degreesC), we demonstrated significant augmentation of NAD(P)H fluorescence near the core of an individual cell. The heterogeneous fluorescence pattern was not found in the control cell, whereas fluorescence intensity averaged over the cell was increased by hypoxia. These results suggest the possibility that oxidative phosphorylation near the core of actively respiring, uncoupled cardiomyocytes may be severely suppressed due to insufficient diffusional oxygen supply (hypoxic core) even if regions near the sarcolemma are adequately oxygenated.

Abstract
Using the blood-free perfused rat brain, we examined the redox behavior of cytochrome oxidase of two chromophores, heme a + a3 and copper. When perfusate inflow was stopped to induce global ischemia, the reduction of heme a + a3 was triphasic, with a rapid phase, a slow phase, and a second rapid phase. In contrast, the reduction of copper was monophasic after the rapid phase of heme a + a3. The triphasic reduction of heme a + a3 was diminished by energy-depleting treatments, such as addition of an uncoupler. The time course of the reduction of copper was not affected by the energy depletion. During global ischemia the decrease in creatine phosphate nearly paralleled the reduction of heme a + a3, whereas ATP remained at the control level until approximately 60% of heme a + a3 was reduced in the rapid phase. In the slow phase, ATP started to decrease with the reduction of copper. The redox behavior of copper was similar to the slow phase of the reduction of heme a + a3 because of the higher oxygen affinity of copper than of heme a + a3. Therefore, the rapid phase of the reduction of heme a + a3 can be used as an alarm before a decrease in ATP, whereas the reduction of copper indicates a decrease in ATP under severe hypoxia. Thus the copper signal in noninvasive near-infrared spectroscopy is a useful parameter for the clinical setting.

Abstract
For the precise examination of the optical characteristics of cerebral tissue, we prepared hemoglobin-free perfused rat heads, from which trace amounts of blood were completely removed. In this preparation at 30 degrees C, the redox responses of the cytochrome oxidase components, heme a + a3 and copper, were followed spectrophotometrically in visible and near-infrared regions, and were correlated with the changes in neural activity as monitored by electroencephalography (EEG). During the aerobic-anaerobic transition, there was clear dissociation of the time courses of the reduction of heme a + a3 and copper; the reduction of heme a + a3 preceded the reduction of copper. The EEG activity decreased earlier than the reduction of heme a + a3. Pentylenetetrazole administration in normoxia caused the partial reduction of heme a + a3 but not of copper. The redox behaviors of cytochrome oxidase components in the brain were identical to those observed in isolated mitochondria. The usefulness of brain preparation for bridging the in vivo and in vitro studies is documented where various circulatory parameters could be controlled artificially.

Abstract
The resistance for the oxygen molecule to diffuse from the capillary blood to the cell surface produces remarkably large gradients of oxygen partial pressure (PO2) in the extracellular space. In addition, the intracellular radial gradients of PO2 may not be ignored particularly when the cellular oxygen consumption is increased. These PO2 gradients together result in a quite low intracellular PO2 in the cardiomyocyte in vivo. Thus, the cellular oxidative metabolism may be limited by diffusional transport of oxygen from the capillary blood to mitochondria. In this review, quantitative aspects and physiological relevances of the PO2 gradient in the myocardium are discussed.

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to directly visualize radial gradients of intracellular PO2 in a single individual cardiomyocyte isolated from the rat ventricle. Microspectrophotometry with the use of cytosolic myoglobin as an oxygen probe was conducted at 410 nm. When the quiescent cell was incubated with 1 microM carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone to increase oxygen consumption approximately eightfold, gradual decreases in myoglobin oxygen saturation (SMb) were demonstrated toward the core of the cell, whereas these decreases disappeared when the cell was treated with 2 mM NaCN. These results highlighted the importance of diffusional oxygen transport in determining intracellular oxygenation in cardiac cells. From the measured SMb, we assessed the profile of radial changes in intracellular PO2 at the mean SMb comparable to that in vivo ( approximately 0.5). Quite steep PO2 gradients were demonstrated in the vicinity of the sarcolemma that were rapidly attenuated toward the cell core. These radial profiles of intracellular PO2 demonstrate the significance of myoglobin-facilitated diffusion of oxygen. Furthermore, the shallow gradients of PO2 near the center of the cell might arise from partial depression of oxygen consumption near the cell core.

Abstract
Clinical symptoms of acute carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning are mainly related to the capability of haemoglobin to bind CO. However, the persistence of some clinical alterations after carboxyhaemoglobin normalization suggests that other heme containing proteins, like cytochrome c oxidase, could play a role in its pathogenesis. We studied mitochondrial enzyme activities of lymphocytes from three patients suffering from acute CO poisoning. HbCO levels were 11.6%. 19.6% and 22.3% in the acute phase, 2.3%, 2.4% and 1.5% on day 3 after admission, and 1.2%, 3.3% and 1.1% on day 12. Complex II, III and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activities remained normal along the study, while cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV) activity showed a 76% inhibition compared to controls during acute poisoning (P < 0.01) and 48% at day 3 (P < 0.05). The activity was normal already on day 12 after the complete disappearance of symptomatology. Our results suggest that mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase is also a target site in human acute CO poisoning, and its extended and generalized inhibition could explain the persistence of different symptoms after the normalization of HbCO levels.

Abstract
Using near-infrared spectroscopy, we developed a new approach for measuring the redox state of cytochrome oxidase in the brain under normal blood-circulation conditions. Our algorithm does not require the absorption coefficient of cytochrome oxidase, which differs from study to study. We employed this method for evaluation of effects of changes in oxygen delivery on cerebral oxygenation in rats. When fractional inspired oxygen was decreased in a stepwise manner from 100 to <10%, at which point the concentration of oxygenated hemoglobin ([HbO2]) decreased by approximately 60%, cytochrome oxidase started to be reduced. Increases in arterial PO2 under hyperoxic conditions caused an increase in [HbO2], whereas further oxidation of cytochrome oxidase was not observed. The dissociation of the responses of hemogloblin and cytochrome oxidase was also clearly observed after the injection of epinephrine under severely hypoxic conditions; that is, cytochrome oxidase was reoxidized with increasing blood pressure, whereas hemoglobin oxygenation was not changed. These data indicated that oxygen-dependent redox changes in cytochrome oxidase occur only when oxygen delivery is extremely impaired. This is consistent with the in vitro data of our previous study.

Abstract
Cytochrome oxidase is the terminal electron acceptor of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. It is responsible for the vast majority of oxygen consumption in the body and essential for the efficient generation of cellular ATP. The enzyme contains four redox active metal centres; one of these, the binuclear CuA centre, has a strong absorbance in the near-infrared that enables it to be detectable in vivo by near-infrared spectroscopy. However, the fact that the concentration of this centre is less than 10% of that of haemoglobin means that its detection is not a trivial matter. Unlike the case with deoxyhaemoglobin and oxyhaemoglobin, concentration changes of the total cytochrome oxidase protein occur very slowly (over days) and are therefore not easily detectable by near-infrared spectroscopy. However, the copper centre rapidly accepts and donates an electron, and can thus change its redox state quickly; this redox change is detectable by near-infrared spectroscopy. Many factors can affect the CuA redox state in vivo (Cooper et al. 1994), but most significant is likely to be the molecular oxygen concentration (at low oxygen tensions, electrons build up on CuA as reduction of oxygen by the enzyme starts to limit the steady-state rate of electron transfer). The factors underlying haemoglobin oxygenation, deoxygenation and blood volume changes are, in general, well understood by the clinicians and physiologists who perform near-infrared spectroscopy measurements. In contrast, the factors that control the steady-state redox level of CuA in cytochrome oxidase are still a matter of active debate, even amongst biochemists studying the isolated enzyme and mitochondria. Coupled with the difficulties of accurate in vivo measurements it is perhaps not surprising that the field of cytochrome oxidase near-infrared spectroscopy has a somewhat chequered past. Too often papers have been written with insufficient information to enable the measurements to be repeated and few attempts have been made to test the algorithms in vivo. In recent years a number of research groups and commercial spectrometer manufacturers have made a concerted attempt to not only say how they are attempting to measure cytochrome oxidase by near-infrared spectroscopy but also to demonstrate that they are really doing so. We applaud these attempts, which in general fall into three areas: first, modelling of data can be performed to determine what problems are likely to derail cytochrome oxidase detection algorithms (Matcher et al. 1995); secondly haemoglobin concentration changes can be made by haemodilution (using saline or artificial blood substitutes) in animals (Tamura 1993) or patients (Skov & Greisen 1994); and thirdly, the cytochrome oxidase redox state can be fixed by the use of mitochondrial inhibitors and then attempts make to cause spurious cytochrome changes by dramatically varying haemoglobin oxygenation, haemoglobin concentration and light scattering (Cooper et al. 1997). We have previously written reviews covering the difficulties of measuring the cytochrome near-infrared spectroscopy signal in vivo (Cooper et al. 1997) and the factors affecting the oxidation state of cytochrome oxidase CuA (Cooper et al. 1994). In this article we would like to strike a somewhat more optimistic note--we will stress the usefulness this measurement may have in the clinical environment, as well as describing conditions under which we can have confidence that we are measuring real changes in the CuA redox state.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have indicated that near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) could continuously and noninvasively observe the changes in cerebral oxygenation state during hypoxia and ischemia, using their optical properties. Its validity and usefulness during cerebrovascular surgery, however, still remain to be clarified. METHODS Using NIRS, we continuously monitored the changes in the concentration of oxyhemoglobin, deoxyhemoglobin, and total hemoglobin ([oxy-HB], [deoxy-Hb], and [total Hb], respectively) and redox state of cytochrome oxidase (cyt ox) during carotid endarterectomy for 22 patients, and we compared the NIRS responses with those of intraoperative somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP) and regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF). RESULTS In 9 of 22 patients, cross-clamping of the carotid artery caused a continuous decrease [oxy-Hb] and [total Hb], and an increase in [deoxy-Hb]. Cyt ox was partially reduced during the clamping. These NIRS responses demonstrated the occurrence of severe hypoxia in the ipsilateral cerebral tissue. These patients showed a marked decrease in the N20 amplitude of SEP and rCBF. In contrast, the other 13 patients did not show a significant decrease in the cerebral oxygenation state, which showed no remarkable changes in either SEP or in rCBF. CONCLUSIONS NIRS could successfully jude the cerebral oxygenation state noninvasively during carotid surgery and was more sensitive to ischemic crisis than other indirect methods.

Abstract
Electron transfer to oxygen catalysed by cytochrome c oxidase is accompanied by spectral changes at the binuclear a3CuB centre, both in the soluble enzyme and in membranous systems, indicating spin or ligand state transitions of an iron that remains ferric. The other haem group, cytochrome a, does not change its spectral characteristics significantly during the steady state, but remains partially reduced until anaerobiosis. Cytochrome a3, is fully oxidized in each of its major steady state forms, and reduced upon anaerobiosis to a single ferrous species. Although cytochrome a is normally the immediate electron donor to the binuclear centre, its redox state does not alter under conditions in which the flux through the enzyme is changing significantly. A second electron transfer pathway to the binuclear centre may therefore exist, possibly one in which direct reduction of the binuclear a3CuB centre by CuA occurs. Both cytochrome a and CuA behave as simple electron transfer centres. The energy-conserving chemistry takes place at the binuclear centre in concert with the four-electron reduction of molecular oxygen.
