Abstract
Reperfusion injury, the paradoxical tissue response that is manifested by blood flow-deprived and oxygen-starved organs following the restoration of blood flow and tissue oxygenation, has been a focus of basic and clinical research for over 4-decades. While a variety of molecular mechanisms have been proposed to explain this phenomenon, excess production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) continues to receive much attention as a critical factor in the genesis of reperfusion injury. As a consequence, considerable effort has been devoted to identifying the dominant cellular and enzymatic sources of excess ROS production following ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Of the potential ROS sources described to date, xanthine oxidase, NADPH oxidase (Nox), mitochondria, and uncoupled nitric oxide synthase have gained a status as the most likely contributors to reperfusion-induced oxidative stress and represent priority targets for therapeutic intervention against reperfusion-induced organ dysfunction and tissue damage. Although all four enzymatic sources are present in most tissues and are likely to play some role in reperfusion injury, priority and emphasis has been given to specific ROS sources that are enriched in certain tissues, such as xanthine oxidase in the gastrointestinal tract and mitochondria in the metabolically active heart and brain. The possibility that multiple ROS sources contribute to reperfusion injury in most tissues is supported by evidence demonstrating that redox-signaling enables ROS produced by one enzymatic source (e.g., Nox) to activate and enhance ROS production by a second source (e.g., mitochondria). This review provides a synopsis of the evidence implicating ROS in reperfusion injury, the clinical implications of this phenomenon, and summarizes current understanding of the four most frequently invoked enzymatic sources of ROS production in post-ischemic tissue. Reperfusion injury is implicated in a variety of human diseases and disorders. Evidence implicating ROS in reperfusion injury continues to grow. Several enzymes are candidate sources of ROS in post-ischemic tissue. Inter-enzymatic ROS-dependent signaling enhances the oxidative stress caused by I/R. .

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the rise of the burden of ischemic heart disease, both clinical and economic evidence show a desperate need to protect the heart against myocardium ischemia-reperfusion injury-related complications following cardiac surgery or percutaneous coronary intervention. However, there is no effective intervention for myocardium ischemia-reperfusion injury as yet. METHODS We pretreated mice with 4 daily 2.0 absolute atmosphere (ATA) hyperbaric oxygen, then observed its effects on heart function parameters and infarct size following in situ ischemia-reperfusion. Multiple oxidative and inflammation products were measured in the myocardium. Next, we investigated the expression of heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/serine/threonine protein kinase (Akt) pathway, and NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in the presence of myocardium ischemia-reperfusion injury, hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning, and their inhibitors and their effects on heart function parameters. RESULTS Hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning ameliorated the cardiac function and histological alterations induced by myocardium ischemia-reperfusion injury, decreased oxidative products and proinflammatory cytokine. Hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning increased expression of HO-1, which was suppressed by PI3K inhibitor LY294002, Nrf2 knockout, and Akt inhibitor triciribine. The expression of Nrf2 was enhanced by hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning, but decreased by LY294002 and triciribine. The Akt was also activated by hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning but suppressed by LY294002. The hemodynamic assays showed that cardiac function was suppressed by LY294002, Nrf2 knockout, and triciribine. CONCLUSION These data present a novel signaling mechanism by which hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning protects myocardium ischemia-reperfusion injury via PI3K/Akt/Nrf2-dependent antioxidant defensive system.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury in critically ill patients is common and associated with a substantial increase in morbidity and mortality. Even with aggressive medical care and renal replacement therapy, acute kidney injury remains a significant health care concern. Recent published reports offer new strategies for the prevention and amelioration of acute kidney injury using carbon monoxide. Although considered a toxic environmental gas, carbon monoxide has recently aroused scientific and clinical interest, as its beneficial effects and mechanisms of action have been substantially defined in various in vitro and in vivo experiments. The exogenous application of carbon monoxide can confer cytoprotection by modulating intracellular signaling pathways through its anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, vasodilative, antithrombotic and antiproliferative properties. Thus, evidence is accumulating to support the notion of carbon monoxide treatment for acute kidney disease. In this review, we focus on the extensively analyzed advantageous value of treatment with inhaled/soluble carbon monoxide in the context of kidney injury. Mechanisms such as signaling pathways, as well as an expanded view regarding toxicity and side-effects, are described broadly. In addition, we discuss the clinical applicability of carbon monoxide as a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of patients with acute kidney disease based on translating basic experimental findings into clinical application.

Inhibition of cytochrome P450 2E1 and activation of transcription factor Nrf2 are renoprotective in myoglobinuric acute kidney injury. Kidney Int 2014; 86:338-49.

Abstract
Rhabdomyolysis accounts for ∼10% of acute kidney injuries. In glycerol-induced myoglobinuric acute kidney injury, we found an increase in the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) nuclear protein, a key redox-sensitive transcription factor, and Nrf2-regulated genes and proteins including upregulation of heme oxygenase-1. In in vitro studies, pretreatment of LLC-PK1 cells with an activator of Nrf2 before myoglobin exposure significantly decreased oxidant generation and cytotoxicity, whereas Nrf2 inhibition and gene silencing exacerbated the injury. Chlormethiazole, a specific CYP2E1 transcription inhibitor, prevented an increase in catalytic iron in the kidneys, decreased oxidative stress, blocked nuclear translocation of the Nrf2 protein, decreased heme oxygenase-1 upregulation, and provided functional and histological protection against acute kidney injury. CYP2E1 inhibitors and gene silencing in renal tubular epithelial cells significantly decreased reactive oxygen species generation and provided marked protection against myoglobin-induced cytotoxicity. Thus, during CYP2E1-induced oxidative stress, the transcription factor Nrf2 has a pivotal role in the early adaptive response. Inhibition of CYP2E1 coupled with the prior induction of Nrf2 may be a valuable tool to reduce CYP2E1-mediated rhabdomyolysis-induced acute kidney injury.

Abstract
Hyperoxic lung injury is a major concern in critically ill patients who receive high concentrations of oxygen to treat lung diseases. Successful abrogation of hyperoxic lung injury would have a huge impact on respiratory and critical care medicine. Hydrogen can be administered as a therapeutic medical gas. We recently demonstrated that inhaled hydrogen reduced transplant-induced lung injury and induced heme oxygenase (HO)-1. To determine whether hydrogen could reduce hyperoxic lung injury and investigate the underlying mechanisms, we randomly assigned rats to four experimental groups and administered the following gas mixtures for 60 h: 98% oxygen (hyperoxia), 2% nitrogen; 98% oxygen (hyperoxia), 2% hydrogen; 98% balanced air (normoxia), 2% nitrogen; and 98% balanced air (normoxia), 2% hydrogen. We examined lung function by blood gas analysis, extent of lung injury, and expression of HO-1. We also investigated the role of NF-E2-related factor (Nrf) 2, which regulates HO-1 expression, by examining the expression of Nrf2-dependent genes and the ability of hydrogen to reduce hyperoxic lung injury in Nrf2-deficient mice. Hydrogen treatment during exposure to hyperoxia significantly improved blood oxygenation, reduced inflammatory events, and induced HO-1 expression. Hydrogen did not mitigate hyperoxic lung injury or induce HO-1 in Nrf2-deficient mice. These findings indicate that hydrogen gas can ameliorate hyperoxic lung injury through induction of Nrf2-dependent genes, such as HO-1. The findings suggest a potentially novel and applicable solution to hyperoxic lung injury and provide new insight into the molecular mechanisms and actions of hydrogen.

Abstract
We determined the effects of apocynin, a representative inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, on the proliferative and adhesive properties of 3Y1 rat fibroblasts and the 3Y1 v-H-ras-transformed derivative, HR-3Y1-2. Apocynin inhibited the proliferation of HR-3Y1-2 but not 3Y1 cells at 10 µM and 100 µM. Apocynin also decreased the intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level in HR-3Y1-2 but not 3Y1 cells. We also evaluated the effects of apocynin on cell adhesion to fibronectin and found decreased adhesion of HR-3Y1-2 cells to fibronectin-coated plates. Our results indicate that apocynin selectively down-regulated β1-integrin cell surface expression on the HR-3Y1-2 cells. It also inhibited the migration and invasion of these cells. These data suggest that reducing the production of NADPH oxidase-mediated ROS could be an effective means for ameliorating the abnormal growth, adhesion and motility of v-H-ras-transformed cells.

Abstract
Membranous nephropathy is a disease that affects the filtering units of the kidney, the glomeruli, and results in proteinuria accompanied by loss of kidney function. Passive Heymann nephritis is an experimental model that mimics membranous nephropathy in humans, wherein the glomerular epithelial cell (GEC) injury induced by complement C5b-9 leads to proteinuria. We examined the role of cytochrome P450 2B1 (CYP2B1) in this complement-mediated sublytic injury. Overexpression of CYP2B1 in GECs significantly increased the formation of reactive oxygen species, cytotoxicity, and collapse of the actin cytoskeleton following treatment with anti-tubular brush-border antiserum (anti-Fx1A). In contrast, silencing of CYP2B1 markedly attenuated anti-Fx1A-induced reactive oxygen species generation and cytotoxicity with preservation of the actin cytoskeleton. Gelsolin, which maintains an organized actin cytoskeleton, was significantly decreased by complement C5b-9-mediated injury but was preserved in CYP2B1-silenced cells. In rats injected with anti-Fx1A, the cytochrome P450 inhibitor cimetidine blocked an increase in catalytic iron and ROS generation, reduced the formation of malondialdehyde adducts, maintained a normal distribution of nephrin in the glomeruli, and provided significant protection at the onset of proteinuria. Thus, GEC CYP2B1 contributes to complement C5b-9-mediated injury and plays an important role in the pathogenesis of passive Heymann nephritis.

Abstract
Previously, we demonstrated that cytochrome P450 2B1 (CYP2B1) can generate reactive oxygen species in puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN)-induced nephrotic syndrome, an animal model of minimal-change disease in humans. In this study we found that overexpression of CYP2B1 in rat glomerular epithelial cells in vitro significantly increased PAN-induced reactive oxygen species generation, cytotoxicity, cell death, and collapse of the actin cytoskeleton. All of these pathological changes were markedly attenuated by siRNA-induced CYP2B1 silencing. The cellular CYP2B1 protein content was significantly decreased whereas its mRNA level was markedly increased, suggesting regulation by protein degradation rather than transcriptional inhibition in the PAN-treated glomerular epithelial cells. This degradation of CYP2B1 was accompanied by the induction of heme oxygenase-1, an important indicator of heme-induced oxidative stress. In PAN-treated CYP2B1-silenced glomerular epithelial cells the induction of heme oxygenase-1 and caspase-3 activity were significantly decreased. Further, cleavage of the stress-induced pro-apoptotic endoplasmic reticulum-specific pro-caspase-12 was prevented in the silenced cells. Our results support a pivotal role of CYP2B1 for reactive oxygen species production in the endoplasmic reticulum in PAN-induced cytotoxicity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemic postconditioning, the process of exposing tissues to brief cycles of ischemia-reperfusion after critical ischemia, can mitigate local ischemia-reperfusion injury. Remote protection of skeletal muscle has never been demonstrated in postconditioning models of ischemia-reperfusion injury. METHODS Mice were subjected to 2 hours of ipsilateral hind limb ischemia followed by reperfusion. Contralateral limb ischemia was subsequently induced for 2 hours after either 0 (n = 6), 20 (n = 6), or 120 (n = 5) minutes of ipsilateral limb reperfusion. These groups were compared with animals subjected to bilateral simultaneous injury (n = 8) and sham animals that did not undergo ischemia (n = 6). The gastrocnemius muscles were harvested for histologic evaluation, and injury was recorded as the percentage of injured fibers. RESULTS The first limbs undergoing injury in the 20-minute interval group had a 59 percent injury reduction compared with contralateral limbs (16.0 +/- 2.4 percent versus 39.5 +/- 6.5 percent) after 24 hours of reperfusion and 62 percent reduction after 48 hours (24.4 +/- 3.0 percent versus 63.6 +/- 5.5 percent). In animals with no interval or a 120-minute interval between the onset of limb ischemia, there was no significant difference in injury between hind limbs. The injury in these groups was similar to that in hind limbs subjected to simultaneous bilateral ischemia. CONCLUSIONS A 20-minute reperfusion interval between hind limb ischemia significantly protects against injury in the initially ischemic limb, while similar injury is observed with simultaneous ischemia or an interval of 120 minutes. This study demonstrates remote postconditioning of skeletal muscle and may lead to the development of post hoc therapies.

Abstract
Lung ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury causes alveolar, epithelial and endothelial cell dysfunction which often results in decreased alveolar perfusion, characteristic of an acute respiratory distress syndrome. Nitric oxide (NO) from endothelium-derived NO synthase (eNOS) helps maintain a low pulmonary vascular resistance. Paradoxically, during acute lung injury, overproduction of NO via inducible NO synthase (iNOS) and oxidative stress lead to reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS) formation and vascular dysfunction. RNS potentiate vascular and cellular injury by oxidation, by decreasing NO bioavailability, and by regulating NOS isoforms. RNS potentiate their own production by uncoupling NO production through eNOS by oxidation and disruption of Akt-mediated phosphorylation of eNOS. This review focuses on effects of NO which cause vascular dysfunction in the unique environment of the lung and presents a hypothesis for interplay between eNOS and iNOS activation with implications for development of new strategies to treat vascular dysfunction associated with IR.

Abstract
Medical gases are pharmaceutical gaseous molecules which offer solutions to medical needs and include traditional gases, such as oxygen and nitrous oxide, as well as gases with recently discovered roles as biological messenger molecules, such as carbon monoxide, nitric oxide and hydrogen sulphide. Medical gas therapy is a relatively unexplored field of medicine; however, a recent increasing in the number of publications on medical gas therapies clearly indicate that there are significant opportunities for use of gases as therapeutic tools for a variety of disease conditions. In this article, we review the recent advances in research on medical gases with antioxidant properties and discuss their clinical applications and therapeutic properties.

Abstract
Apocynin is a naturally occurring methoxy-substituted catechol, experimentally used as an inhibitor of NADPH-oxidase. It can decrease the production of superoxide (O(2)(-)) from activated neutrophils and macrophages while the ability of phagocytosis remains unaffected. The anti-inflammatory activity of apocynin has been demonstrated in a variety of cell and animal models of inflammation. Apocynin, after metabolic conversion, inhibits the assembly of NADPH-oxidase that is responsible for reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. It is, therefore, extensively used to reveal the role of this enzyme in cell and experimental models. Although some of the ROS serve as signaling molecules in the cells, excessive production is damaging and has been implicated to play an important role in the progression of many disease processes. This is why in many studies apocynin presents a promising potential treatment for some disorders; however, its utility with inflammatory diseases remains to be determined. Since its mode of action is not well defined, we tried to get a more precise insight into the mechanisms by which apocynin exerts its activity. Considering the anti-inflammatory activities of apocynin, we may conclude that this compound definitely deserves further study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cimetidine is an H(2)-antagonist with cytochrome P450 (P450) inhibitory activity. Recent studies showed that cimetidine improves warm ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in isolated rat heart and rabbit lung and in primary cultures of rat proximal tubule epithelial cells by inhibiting P450-mediated reactive oxygen species generation. Here, we studied the effects of cimetidine on the warm IR injury in the liver. METHODS Three groups of rats were treated with a single i.p. dose (0.6 mmol/kg) of cimetidine or ranitidine (an H(2) antagonist without a significant P450 inhibitory activity) or with saline 1.5 h before surgery. Livers were then subjected to 1 h of in vivo ischemia, followed by 1 h of ex vivo reperfusion using a physiologic buffer in a recirculating manner. A fourth group of animals, receiving saline pretreatment underwent sham operation instead of ischemia. Perfusate and bile samples were collected during the reperfusion, and the liver tissue was collected at the end of reperfusion period for measurement of various biochemical markers. RESULTS Warm IR resulted in a significant increase in the perfusate concentrations of liver enzymes (3- to 4.5-fold) and hepatic concentrations of lipid hydroperoxides (2-fold). Whereas the glutathione concentrations in the liver tissue were not affected by IR injury, the injury caused a significant decrease ( approximately 40%) in the biliary glutathione excretion. Cimetidine treatment completely or partially reversed all the IR-mediated changes, while ranitidine was ineffective. The protective effects of cimetidine were associated with a 60% decline in the microsomal CYP2C11 activity. CONCLUSIONS Whereas cimetidine, an H(2) blocker with substantial P450 inhibitory activity, is protective in warm IR injury, ranitidine, a similar drug with no significant P450 inhibitory activity, is devoid of any protective effects. Therefore, P450 inhibition appears to be the underlying mechanism in the protective effects of cimetidine in this model of IR injury.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In previous work we have demonstrated that delivery of low concentrations (250 ppm) of carbon monoxide by means of inhalation to donors, recipients, or both protects transplanted lungs from ischemia-reperfusion injury (improved gas exchange, diminished intragraft and systemic inflammation, and retention of graft vascular endothelial cell ultrastructure). In this study we examined whether delivery of carbon monoxide to lung grafts in the preservation solution could protect against lung ischemia-reperfusion injury. METHODS Orthotopic left lung transplantation was performed in syngeneic Lewis to Lewis rats. Grafts were preserved in University of Wisconsin solution with or without (control solution) carbon monoxide at 4 degrees C for 6 hours. Carbon monoxide gas (5% or 100%) was bubbled into University of Wisconsin solution at 4 degrees C for 5 minutes before use. RESULTS In control animals, ischemia-reperfusion injury resulted in significant deterioration of graft function and was associated with a massive cellular infiltrate 2 hours after reperfusion. Grafts stored in University of Wisconsin solution with carbon monoxide (5%), however, demonstrated significantly better gas exchange and significantly reduced intragraft inflammation (reduced inflammatory mediators and cellular infiltrate). Experiments demonstrated that the protective effects afforded by 100% University of Wisconsin solution with carbon monoxide were not as potent as those of 5% University of Wisconsin solution with carbon monoxide. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that 5% carbon monoxide as an additive to the cold flush/preservation solution can impart potent anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective effects after cold preservation and transplantation of lung grafts. Such ex vivo treatment of lung grafts with carbon monoxide can minimize concerns associated with carbon monoxide inhalation and might offer the opportunity to significantly advance the application of carbon monoxide in the clinical setting.

Abstract
Renal ischemia/reperfusion injury is a major complication of kidney transplantation. We tested if ex vivo delivery of carbon monoxide (CO) to the kidney would ameliorate the renal injury of cold storage that can complicate renal transplantation. Orthotopic syngeneic kidney transplantation was performed in Lewis rats following 24 h of cold preservation in University of Wisconsin solution equilibrated without or with CO (soluble CO levels about 40 microM). Ischemia/reperfusion injury in control grafts resulted in an early upregulation of inflammatory mediator mRNAs and progressive deterioration of graft function. In contrast, the grafts preserved with CO had significantly less oxidative injury and this was associated with improved recipient survival compared to the control group. Renal injury in the control group showed considerable degradation of cytochrome P450 heme proteins, active heme metabolism and increased detrimental intracellular free heme levels. Kidney grafts preserved in CO-equilibrated solution maintained their cytochrome P450 protein levels, had normal intracellular heme levels and had less lipid peroxidation. Our results show that CO-mediated suppression of injurious heme-derived redox reactions offers protection of kidney grafts from cold ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Abstract
The present investigation was carried out to study the expression of major cytochrome P450 (CYP) isozymes in streptozotocin-induced diabetes with concomitant insulin therapy. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to untreated control, streptozotocin-induced diabetic, insulin-treated groups and monitored for 4 weeks. Uncontrolled hyperglycemia in the early phase of diabetes resulted in differential regulation of cytochrome P450 isozymes. CYP1B1, CYP1A2, heme oxygenase (HO)-2 proteins and CYP1A2-dependent 7-ethoxyresorufin O-deethylase (EROD) activity were upregulated in the hepatic microsomes of diabetic rats. Insulin therapy ameliorated EROD activity and the expression of CYP1A2, CYP1B1 and HO-2 proteins. In addition, CYP2B1 and 2E1 proteins were markedly induced in the diabetic group. Insulin therapy resulted in complete amelioration of CYP2E1 whereas CYP2B1 protein was partially ameliorated. By contrast, CYP2C11 protein was decreased over 99% in the diabetic group and was partially ameliorated by insulin therapy. These results demonstrate widespread alterations in the expression of CYP isozymes in diabetic rats that are ameliorated by insulin therapy.

Abstract
Animal studies have shown that induction of cytochrome P450 (CYP) in the lung by oxygen exposure may result in the release of free radical oxidants and arachidonic acid metabolites, which can cause lung injury that is reduced by treatment with cimetidine, a CYP inhibitor. To determine whether cimetidine would reduce lung injury in human infants at risk for chronic lung disease, we conducted a randomized clinical trial in which we administered either cimetidine or a placebo for 10 d beginning < 24 h after birth to 84 newborn infants weighing < or = 1250 g who were receiving O2 and mechanical ventilation. Cimetidine had no significant effect on severity of respiratory insufficiency assessed at 10 d postnatal age. F2-isoprostane levels (a marker of oxidant injury) in tracheal aspirates were significantly higher in the cimetidine group at 4 d and at 10 d. There were no significant differences between the groups in tracheal aspirate levels of inflammatory markers (leukotriene B4, IL-8, and nucleated cell count) or arachidonic acid metabolites. We conclude that cimetidine does not reduce lung injury in newborn premature infants receiving O2 and mechanical ventilation. It is possible that cimetidine was not an adequate CYP inhibitor in this context.

Abstract
The restoration of blood flow to ischemic tissues causes additional damage, which is termed reperfusion injury. All tissues are susceptible to reperfusion injury, but this susceptibility varies between tissues. Reperfusion has wide clinical relevance. It influences the outcome of patients after myocardial infarction, stroke, organ transplantation, and cardiovascular surgery. Advances in the treatment of reperfusion injury have created an opportunity for plastic surgeons to apply these treatments to flaps and reimplanted tissues. The main putative mechanisms identified in animal models involve leukocyte-endothelium interactions, reactive oxygen species, and the complement system. However, it has become evident that these fundamental biological systems are controlled by many interrelated pathways. Attempts to bypass this complexity have led to a search for the early "upstream" initiating events, rather than the "downstream" cascading events. This contrasts with current clinical efforts that are directed toward hypothermia, intraarterial flushing, and preconditioning. This article outlines the molecular and cellular events that occur during reperfusion injury and then reviews the efforts that have been made to exploit this knowledge for clinical advantage.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) inhibition with cimetidine reduces hyperoxic lung injury in young lambs. Nitric oxide (NO), also a CYP inhibitor, has been shown to either aggravate or protect against oxidant stress depending on experimental context. The objective of this study was to determine whether NO, like cimetidine, would protect young lambs against hyperoxic lung injury, and whether its effect was associated with CYP inhibition. Three groups of lambs were studied: 1) room air exposure, 2) >95% O2, and 3) >95% O2 plus inhaled NO. After 72 h, hyperoxia alone resulted in a significant increase in arterial P(CO2) and number of polymorphonuclear leukocytes in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), and a significant decrease in arterial/alveolar O2 tension (a/A). The addition of inhaled NO significantly decreased the hypercarbia and BAL polymorphonuclear cellular response associated with hyperoxia but had no beneficial effect on a/A ratio. There were no significant differences in F2-isoprostanes or isofurans (markers of lipid peroxidation) measured in BAL or lung tissue among study groups. No intergroup differences were detected in BAL epoxyeicosatrienoic acid levels (index of CYP activity). The results of this study indicate that hypercarbia and inflammation accompanying hyperoxic lung injury in young lambs can be attenuated by inhaled NO. However, this study provides no direct evidence that NO is inhibiting CYP-mediated oxidant lung injury.

Abstract
During reperfusion, the heart undergoes damage characterised by excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which may be generated by mitochondrial protein synthesis or the activity of cardiac cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYPs). Chloramphenicol inhibits both mitochondrial protein synthesis and the activity of CYPs, and in the perfused rat model of ischaemia/reperfusion, it decreased the release of creatine kinase and infarct size. This cardioprotective effect of chloramphenicol was not associated with mitochondrial protein synthesis, implicating the inhibition of CYPs in the cardioprotection. The ROS superoxide was generated by the heart in ischaemia/reperfusion, and this generation was inhibited by chloramphenicol. Inhibitors of CYP2C9 with no effect on mitochondrial protein synthesis, such as cimetidine and sulfaphenazole, are also cardioprotective in the perfused rat heart. Inhibition of CYP2C9 is a promising approach for the treatment of myocardial infarction, and should be further developed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is now good evidence to suggest that cytochrome P450 (CYP450) may act as an iron-donating catalyst for the production of hydroxyl ion (OH*), which contributes to proximal tubular cell injury. However, it remains unclear which isoform of CYP450 is involved in this process. Cytochrome P4502E1 (CYP2E1) is a highly labile isoform which is not only involved in free radical generation, but has also been shown to be a source of iron in cisplatin-induced renal injury. This study investigates the role of CYP2E1 in the proximal tubular cell injury induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). METHODS Porcine proximal tubular cells (LLC-PK1) were incubated with H2O2 (1 mM) for 4 h in the presence or absence of 0.1 mM of two CYP2E1 inhibitors; diallyl sulfide (DAS), or disulfiram (DSF), desferrioxamine (DFO) (0.1-0.4 mM), or catalase (CT) (78, 150, 300 U/mL). Cell death was determined by measuring LDH release. CYP2E1 activity was determined by p-nitrophenol hydroxylation after 2 h incubation with H2O2. RESULTS Exposure of LLC-PKI to H2O2 significantly increased cell death. CT, DFO, DAS and DSF significantly reduced H2O2-mediated cell death. Incubation with H2O2 increased CYP2EI activation in time- and dose-dependent manner, which was significantly reduced by CT, DFO, DAS and DSF. CONCLUSION We propose that CYP2E1 activation occurs possibly due to OH* and contributes to H2O2-mediated LLC-PK1 cell necrosis by acting as a source of iron and perpetuating the generation of OH* via the Fenton reaction. Inhibition of CYP2E1 may be a novel approach for the prevention of tubular injury caused by oxidative stress.

Abstract
Ischemia and reperfusion both contribute to tissue damage after myocardial infarction. Although many drugs have been shown to reduce infarct size when administered before ischemia, few have been shown to be effective when administered at reperfusion. Moreover, although it is generally accepted that a burst of reactive oxygen species (ROS) occurs at the onset of reperfusion and contributes to tissue damage, the source of ROS and the mechanism of injury is unclear. We now report the finding that chloramphenicol administered at reperfusion reduced infarct size by 60% in a Langendorff isolated perfused rat heart model, and that ROS production was also substantially reduced. Chloramphenicol is an inhibitor of mitochondrial protein synthesis and is also an inhibitor of a subset of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYPs). We could not detect any effect on mitochondrial encoded proteins or mitochondrial respiration in chloramphenicol-perfused hearts, and hypothesized that the effect was caused by inhibition of CYPs. We tested additional CYP inhibitors and found that cimetidine and sulfaphenazole, two CYP inhibitors that have no effect on mitochondrial protein synthesis, were also able to reduce creatine kinase release and infarct size in the Langendorff model. We also showed that chloramphenicol reduced infarct size in an open chest rabbit model of regional ischemia. Taken together, these findings implicate CYPs in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Abstract
(1) The aim of the present study was to investigate the causal relationship between peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) and endothelium-dependent relaxation in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. (2) Acetylcholine (ACh)-induced endothelium-dependent relaxation was significantly weaker in diabetic rats than in age-matched controls. The decreased relaxation in diabetes was improved by the chronic administration of bezafibrate (30 mg kg-1, p.o., 4 weeks). (3) The expressions of the mRNAs for PPARalpha and PPARgamma were significantly decreased in STZ-induced diabetic rats (compared with the controls) and this decrease was restored partially, but not completely, by the chronic administration of bezafibrate. (4) Superoxide dismutase activity in the aorta was not significantly different between diabetic rats and bezafibrate-treated diabetic rats. (5) The expression of the mRNA for the p22phox subunit of NAD(P)H oxidase was significantly higher in diabetics than in controls, but it was lower in bezafibrate-treated diabetic rats than in nontreated diabetic rats. Although the expression of the mRNA for prepro ET-1 (ppET-1) was markedly increased in diabetic rats (compared with controls), this increase was prevented to a significant extent by the chronic administration of bezafibrate. (6) These results suggest that downregulations of PPARalpha and PPARgamma may lead to an increased expression of ppET-1 mRNA in diabetic states and this increment may trigger endothelial dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reactive oxygen metabolites (ROM) are important mediators of cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity and apoptosis. The site and source of generation of these metabolites are not well defined. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) are heme-containing enzymes that can generate ROM during the oxidative metabolism of exogenous and endogenous compounds. CYP2E1 was identified and localized to the kidney proximal tubule. There is evidence to suggest that CYP2E1 is involved in the generation of ROM. METHODS The current study was performed utilizing CYP2e1 null mice (CYP2e1-/-). Cisplatin nephrotoxicity was induced in mice by single intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin and animals were sacrificed 72 hours later. Renal function was assessed and various biochemical tests were performed, including histologic studies. RESULTS CYP2e1-/- demonstrated marked functional and histologic protection against cisplatin-induced renal injury. Incubation of CYP2e1-/- kidney slices with cisplatin resulted in significant decrease in the generation of ROM and attenuation of cytotoxicity as compared to that of wild-type mice (CYP2e1+/+). Cisplatin-induced apoptosis was also markedly reduced in the CYP2e1-/- mice. Direct incubation of cisplatin with the microsomes isolated from CYP2e1-/- kidney cortex produced significant decrease in the generation of hydrogen peroxide, catalytic iron content, and hydroxyl radical formation compared to CYP2e1+/+ microsomes. CONCLUSION Our results thus demonstrate a pivotal role of CYP2E1 in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity and apoptosis. We postulate that the interaction of cisplatin with CYP2E1 results in the generation of ROM that causes renal injury and initiates apoptosis.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion-induced lung injury is characterized by nonspecific alveolar damage, lung edema, and hypoxemia occurring within 72 hours after lung transplantation. The most severe form may lead to primary graft failure and remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality after lung transplantation. Over the past decade, better understanding of the mechanisms of ischemia-reperfusion injury, improvements in the technique of lung preservation, and the development of a new preservation solution specifically for the lung have been associated with a reduction in the incidence of primary graft failure from approximately 30 to 15% or less. Several strategies have also been introduced into clinical practice for the prevention and treatment of ischemia-reperfusion-induced lung injury with various degrees of success. However, only three randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trials on ischemia-reperfusion-induced lung injury have been reported in the literature. In the future, the development of new agents and their application in prospective clinical trials are to be expected to prevent the occurrence of this potentially devastating complication and to further improve the success of lung transplantation.

Abstract
To investigate the mechanism underlying increased endothelin-1 (ET-1) release in diabetic rats, we administered L-arginine chronically to streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. The plasma concentrations of glucose, ET-1 and NOx (NO2- + NO3-) were all significantly raised at 10 weeks after the STZ injection. Chronic administration of L-arginine resulted in a significantly higher plasma NOx concentration and a significantly lower plasma ET-1 level at 10 weeks compared with the untreated diabetic group. ET-1 induced a biphasic vasodilator/vasoconstrictor response in the perfused isolated mesenteric arterial beds from all groups. The vasodilatation was significantly greater in diabetic rats than in age-matched controls. Chronic oral L-arginine administration had no significant effect on the enhanced ET-1-induced vasodilatation seen in the untreated diabetic rats. The vasoconstrictions induced by ET-1 and methoxamine were significantly attenuated in STZ-diabetic rats. The attenuated vasoconstrictor response to ET-1, but not that to methoxamine, was further attenuated by chronic treatment with L-arginine. We conclude that since chronic L-arginine administration not only reduced the increase in plasma ET-1 levels but also further attenuated the ET-1-induced vasoconstriction without affecting the change in vasodilatation, chronic L-arginine administration could be valuable for the treatment of the symptoms of diabetic mellitus related to ET-1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reactive oxygen metabolites (ROM) are important mediators of puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN) induced minimal change nephrotic syndrome (NS) in rats. We have recently shown that cytochrome P450 (CYP) is a significant source of catalytic iron in this model of glomerular injury. The current study was designed to identify the CYP isozyme(s) in the rat glomeruli and explore the role of the specific isozyme(s) in PAN-induced minimal change NS. METHODS NS was induced in rats by a single intravenous injection of PAN. Animals were sacrificed at different time points for variety of biochemical assays including Western blot, immunohistochemistry and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Ultrastructural histochemistry was utilized to study hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) generation in the kidney. RESULTS Several CYP isozymes were tested and CYP2B1 was localized exclusively in the rat glomeruli but not in the tubules. Treatment with PAN resulted in the generation of H2O2 in the glomerular basement membrane with significant loss of CYP2B1 content accompanied by a marked increase in the catalytic iron. CYP2B1 inhibitors cimetidine and piperine significantly reduced H2O2 generation, and prevented the loss of CYP2B1 content and the increase in the catalytic iron. CYP2B1 inhibitors also provided significant protection against PAN induced proteinuria. The induction of heme oxygenase and ferritin also was observed in the glomeruli in PAN-treated rats. Both cimetidine and piperine reduced the up-regulation of these proteins. CONCLUSION Our data indicate that CYP2B1 plays an important role in PAN induced NS by serving as a site for ROM generation and a significant source of catalytic iron.

Abstract
Earlier experimental studies have suggested a role for iron in cold-storage-induced organ injury. Whether the cytochrome P-450 enzymes, shown to be a source for iron in several injury models, contribute to cold-induced iron release is not known. Storage of human proximal tubular epithelial (RPTE) cells at 4 degrees C in the University of Wisconsin (UW) solution caused a significant and time-dependent increase in bleomycin-detectable iron (BDI). To identify the cellular source of BDI, RPTE cells were subfractionated and stored at 4 degrees C for 4 h. Bleomycin-detectable iron release was highest in the microsomes, next in the cytosol and none in the mitochondria. As microsomes are rich in iron-containing cytochrome P-450 enzymes, microsomes were cold stored with P-450 inhibitors, cimetidine and piperonyl butoxide. P-450 inhibitors significantly reduced cold-induced BDI release. Furthermore, cimetidine and iron chelator deferoxamine (DFO) significantly reduced cold-induced cell injury, suggesting a role for P-450-derived iron in cold-induced cell injury. In rat kidney experiments, BDI and LDH release were significantly higher in cold-stored kidneys than in control kidneys. Inclusion of cimetidine and DFO in the cold-storage solution significantly suppressed the BDI and LDH release, and reduced the ultrastructural changes. Our data demonstrate for the first time that cold-induced catalytic iron release may be at least in part of microsomal cytochrome P-450 origin, and that it participates in cold-storage-induced renal injury. In the clinical setting, sequestering free iron released during cold storage is possible and may prove to be useful in limiting organ injury.

Abstract
1. The biosynthesis of endothelin-1 is increased in the diabetic state. So this peptide may cause diabetic vascular complications. We tested this possibility by chronically administering J-104132, a potent orally active mixed antagonist of endothelin A and B (ET(A)/ET(B)) receptors to streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats and focusing on changes in endothelial function. 2. The acetylcholine (ACh)-induced endothelium-dependent relaxation was impaired in diabetic rats and this impairment was significantly attenuated following chronic administration of J-104132 (10 mg kg(-1), p.o., daily for 4 weeks). 3. In an in vitro experiment using aortae from diabetic rats, the ACh-induced relaxation was not changed by the presence of J-104132 (3 x 10(-9) M). 4. The expression levels of the mRNA for endothelial nitric oxide synthase was comparable among aortae from the three groups (control, diabetic and chronically J-104132-treated diabetic). 5. The amount of superoxide anion was significantly greater in aortae from diabetic rats than in controls. Chronic J-104132 treatment significantly decreased the level of superoxide anion in diabetic rats. 6. The expression of the p22phox mRNA for the NADH/NADPH oxidase subunit was significantly increased in STZ-induced diabetic rats and this increase was completely prevented by chronic administration of J-104132. 7. These results suggest that in STZ-induced diabetic rats, ET-1 may be directly involved in impairing endothelium-dependent relaxation via increased superoxide-anion production.

Abstract
In this study, we hypothesized that the lung actively releases excess iron into the circulation to regulate iron homeostasis. We measured nonheme iron (NHFe) in the perfusate of control isolated perfused rabbit lungs and lungs with ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) ventilated with normoxic (21% O(2)) or hypoxic (95% N(2)) gas mixtures. Some were perfused with bicarbonate-free (HEPES) buffer or treated with the anion exchange inhibitor DIDS. The control lungs released approximately 0.25 microg/ml of NHFe or 20% of the total lung NHFe into the vascular space that was not complexed with ferritin, transferrin, or lactoferrin or bleomycin reactive. The I/R lungs released a similar amount of NHFe during ischemia and some bleomycin-detectable iron during reperfusion. NHFe release was attenuated by approximately 50% in both control and ischemic lungs by hypoxia and by >90% in control lungs and approximately 60% in ischemic lungs by DIDS and HEPES. Reperfusion injury was not affected by DIDS or HEPES but was attenuated by hypoxia. These results indicate that biologically nonreactive nonheme iron is released rapidly by the lung into the vascular space via mechanisms that are linked to bicarbonate exchange. During prolonged ischemia, redox-active iron is also released into the vascular compartment by other mechanisms and may contribute to lung injury.

Abstract
Glomus cells and carotid sinus afferents are anatomically connected, and the chemical events in the glomus cells are expected to be conveyed reflexly as afferent signals. Accordingly, K(+) channel inhibition of the glomus cell membrane is expected to be followed by excitation of the afferents. In order to test the redox inhibition of K(+) channels of glomus cells by reduced glutathione (GSH), dithiothreitol (DTT) and by cytochrome P-450 inhibitors (clotrimazole and miconazole), we measured the carotid sinus nerve (CSN) discharge using an in vitro perfused adult rat carotid body (CB) in the presence and absence of these chemicals which are expected to excite the afferents. Our findings were that these agents did not stimulate the CSN activities during normoxia and kept the hypoxic responses intact. These results led us to conclude that the redox modulation of glomus cells was not conveyed to the afferents, and this functional disconnection did not support the redox hypothesis of O(2) chemoreception in the whole carotid body.

Abstract
We have recently demonstrated an important pathogenic role for glomerular catalytic iron in the puromycin aminonucleoside (PAN) induced minimal change nephrotic syndrome (MCNS). The source of this iron capable of catalyzing free radical reactions is not known. We examined the role of cytochrome P-450 (CYP) as a source of catalytic iron in a model MCNS induced by single injection of PAN to rats. Treatment of PAN resulted in a marked increase in the catalytic iron associated with significant loss of glomerular CYP content. Administration of CYP inhibitors significantly prevented the injury-induced loss of CYP content and the increase in the catalytic iron in the glomeruli accompanied by a marked decrease in proteinuria. In an in vitro study utilizing glomerular epithelial cells (GEC), CYP inhibitors also markedly prevented the PAN-induced increase in the catalytic iron and hydroxyl radical formation accompanied by significant protection against PAN-induced cytotoxicity. Taken together our data indicate that the CYP, a group of heme protein, may serve as a significant source of this catalytic iron.

Abstract
Apocynin (4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-acetophenone) inhibits NADPH oxidase in activated polymorphonuclear (PMN) leukocytes, preventing the generation of reactive oxygen species. To determine if apocynin attenuates ischemia-reperfusion lung injury, we examined the effects of apocynin (0.03, 0.3, and 3 mM) in isolated in situ sheep lungs. In diluent-treated lungs, reperfusion with blood (180 min) after 30 min of ischemia (ventilation 28% O(2), 5% CO(2)) caused leukocyte sequestration in the lung and increased vascular permeability [reflection coefficient for albumin (sigma(alb)) 0.47 +/- 0.10, filtration coefficient (K(f)) 0.14 +/- 0.03 g. min(-1). mmHg(-1). 100 g(-1)] compared with nonreperfused lungs (sigma(alb) 0.77 +/- 0. 03, K(f) 0.03 +/- 0.01 g. min(-1). mmHg(-1). 100 g(-1); P < 0.05). Apocynin attenuated the increased protein permeability at 0.3 and 3 mM (sigma(alb) 0.69 +/- 0.05 and 0.91 +/- 0.03, respectively, P < 0. 05); K(f) was decreased by 3 mM apocynin (0.05 +/- 0.01 g. min(-1). mmHg(-1). 100 g(-1), P < 0.05). Diphenyleneiodonium (DPI, 5 microM), a structurally unrelated inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, worsened injury (K(f) 0.32 +/- 0.07 g. min(-1). mmHg(-1). 100 g(-1), P < 0.05). Neither apocynin nor DPI affected leukocyte sequestration. Apocynin and DPI inhibited whole blood chemiluminescence and isolated PMN leukocyte-induced resazurin reduction, confirming NADPH oxidase inhibition. Apocynin inhibited pulmonary artery hypertension and perfusate concentrations of cyclooxygenase metabolites, including thromboxane B(2). The cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin had no effect on the increased vascular permeability, suggesting that cyclooxygenase inhibition was not the explanation for the apocynin results. Apocynin prevented ischemia-reperfusion lung injury, but the mechanism of protection remains unclear.

Abstract
A modification of the human monooxygenase system have been previously associated with the sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS): the hepatic CYP2C content was markedly enhanced and resulted from an activation of CYP2C gene transcription. To determine the possible consequence of the up-regulation of CYP2C in SIDS, we examined the metabolism of arachidonic acid (AA) an endogenous substrate of CYP2C involved in the physiologic regulation of vascular tone. The overall AA metabolism was extremely low during the fetal period and rose after birth to generate 14,15 epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET), 11,12 EET and the sum of 5,6 dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid (diHETE)+omega/omega-1 hydroxy AA. In SIDS, the accumulation of CYP2C proteins was associated with a significant increase in the formation of 14,15 and 11,12 diHETE, which were shown to be supported by individually expressed CYP2C8 and 2C9 and HETE1 (presumably 15 HETE). This increase was markedly inhibited by addition of sulfaphenazole, a selective inhibitor of CYP2C9. So, we propose that the higher CYP2C content in SIDS stimulates the production of EETs and diHETEs and might have severe pathologic consequences in children.

Abstract
This study evaluated the roles of endothelial cell membrane potential and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the increase of tissue free iron during lung ischemia. Oxygenated ischemia was produced in the isolated rat lung by discontinuing perfusion while ventilation with O2 was maintained. We have shown previously that tissue oxygenation is maintained in this model of ischemia and that biochemical changes are the result of an abrupt reduction in endothelial shear stress. With 1 hr oxygenated ischemia, generation of ROS, evaluated by oxidation of dichlorodihydrofluorescein (H2DCF) to fluorescent dichlorofluorescein, increased 8.0-fold, lung thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) increased 3.4-fold, and lung protein carbonyl content increased 2.4-fold. Lung tissue free iron, measured in the lung homogenate with a fluorescent desferrioxamine derivative, increased 4.0-fold during ischemia. Pretreatment of lungs with thapsigargin abolished the increase in free iron with ischemia indicating that this effect is dependent on Ca2+ release from intracellular stores. Perfusion of lungs with high (25 mM) K+ to depolarize the endothelium also led to a significant increase in tissue free iron. Pretreatment of lungs with 35 microM cromakalim, a K+-channel agonist, significantly inhibited both ischemia-induced tissue oxidant injury and the increase in free iron with ischemia or with high K+ perfusion. A similar increase in free iron was observed when lungs were ventilated with either O2 or N2 during the ischemic period or were pre-perfused with an inhibitor of ROS production (diphenyleneiodonium). These results indicate that ROS generation is not required for ischemia-mediated iron release. Thus, ROS generation and iron release with ischemia are independent although both are subsequent to endothelial cell membrane depolarization.

Abstract
Over the last decade, there is accumulating evidence for a role of reactive oxygen metabolites in the pathogenesis of a variety of renal diseases, including gentamicin, glycerol, cisplatin, and cyclosporine A models of toxic acute renal failure. Gentamicin has been shown both in in vitro and in vivo studies to enhance the generation of reactive oxygen metabolites. Iron is important in models of tissue injury, presumably because it is capable of catalyzing free-radical formation. Gentamicin has been shown to cause release of iron from renal cortical mitochondria. Scavengers of reactive oxygen metabolites as well as iron chelators provide protection in gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity. In glycerol-induced acute renal failure, an animal model of rhabdomyolysis, there is enhanced generation of hydrogen peroxide, and scavengers of reactive oxygen metabolites and iron chelators provide protection. Although the dogma is that the myoglobin is the source of iron, recent studies suggest that cytochrome P450 may be an important source of iron in this model. In addition, there are marked alterations in antioxidant defenses, such as glutathione, as well as changes in heme oxygenase. Several recent in vitro and in vivo studies indicate an important role of reactive oxygen metabolites in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. Thus, catalytic iron is increased both in vitro and in vivo by cisplatin, and iron chelators as well as hydroxyl radical scavengers have been shown to be protective. Recent studies indicate that cytochrome P450 may also be an important source of the catalytic iron in cisplatin nephrotoxicity. Cyclosporine A has been shown to enhance generation of hydrogen peroxide in vitro and enhance lipid peroxidation in vitro and in vivo. Antioxidants have been shown to be protective in cyclosporine A nephrotoxicity. This collective body of evidence suggests an important role for reactive oxygen metabolites in toxic acute renal failure and may provide therapeutic opportunities of preventing or treating acute renal failure in humans.

Abstract
Most pathological processes include the production of activated oxygen species augmented or attenuated by transition metal ions catalyzing one electron transitions. Inhalation of airborne particles, infections, ingestion of toxins or liberation from endogenous stores represent biological pathways for the induction of pathogenic processes by these metal ions. In this short review basic reactions involving transition metal ions operating during oxidative stress in certain diseases will be discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Iron plays a role in free radical-mediated tissue injury, including cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. However, the source of iron (catalyzing free radical reactions) is not known. We examined the role of cytochrome P-450 as a source of catalytic iron in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity both in vivo and in vitro. METHODS Cisplatin-induced acute renal failure was produced in rats by intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin (10 mg/kg body wt). Piperonyl butoxide, a cytochrome P-450 inhibitor, was administered intraperitoneally (400 mg/kg body wt twice at 48-hr intervals) prior to cisplatin injection. The effects of cisplatin in the absence or presence of piperonyl butoxide on the belomycin-detectable iron, cytochrome P-450 content in the kidney, and renal functional and histological changes were evaluated. In an in vitro study, the effect of cytochrome P-450 inhibitors, cimetidine or piperonyl butoxide, on cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity and catalytic iron release from LLC-PK1 cells was examined. RESULTS In cisplatin-treated rats, there was a marked decrease in the cytochrome P-450 content specifically in the kidney, accompanied by increased bleomycin-detectable iron content in the kidney. Piperonyl butoxide prevented cisplatin-induced loss of cytochrome P-450 as well as the increase of bleomycin-detectable iron in the kidney, along with both functional and histological protection. Both cimetidine and piperonyl butoxide prevented cisplatin-induced increase in bleomycin-detectable iron and cytotoxicity in LLC-PK1 cells. Treatment of cimetidine did not affect cellular uptake of cisplatin. CONCLUSION Cytochrome P-450, a group of heme proteins, may serve as a significant source of catalytic iron in cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
We investigated the effects of low-dose Beraprost sodium (BPS), a stable prostaglandin I2 (PGI2) analogue, on microvascular permeability and the plasma concentrations of thromboxane and adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) in blood-perfused rabbit lungs subjected to ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). After an ischemic insult for 2 h, saline as a vehicle, 3 pmol/L of BPS (BPS-1), 150 to 300 pmol/L of BPS (BPS-2), 900 pmol/L of BPS (BPS-3), or 60 micromol/L of indomethacin (IND) was administered into the reservoir, then the lungs were reperfused and reventilated for 1 h. Vascular permeability was assessed by determining the microvascular filtration coefficient (Kf, ml/min/mm Hg/100 g wet lung). I/R resulted in increases in vascular resistance, Kf, and thromboxane. BPS-2, BPS-3, and IND inhibited the increase in vascular resistance, and BPS-3 and IND attenuated the increases in Kf and thromboxane. BPS-3 increased, but IND decreased, the concentrations of cAMP in the perfusate. Perfusate thromboxane released after reperfusion was significantly correlated with Kf. We conclude that cyclooxygenase products play a critical role in I/R-induced lung vascular injury and that 900 pmol/L of BPS inhibits the production of thromboxane and enhances the permeability barrier via a cAMP-elevating effect. However, vasodilatory action of BPS may exacerbate the reperfused lung injury by increasing the flow through injured capillaries via inhibition of thromboxane-induced vasoconstriction.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relationship between the angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) gene polymorphism and ambulatory blood pressure in young normotensive males with (n=45) and without (n=100) family history of hypertension. Twenty-four hour and daytime systolic blood pressure was significantly higher in subjects with a parental history of hypertension. Ambulatory blood pressure values did not differ significantly across ACE genotypes in subjects with negative family history of hypertension. In subjects with a parental history of hypertension, there was a significant positive association between the D allele of the ACE gene polymorphism and 24-h, daytime and nighttime systolic blood pressure. For twenty-four hour systolic blood pressure there was an average 9 mmHg difference between subjects with DD and II genotypes. The results indicate that in normotensive subjects with a genetic predisposition to hypertension, ambulatory systolic blood pressure is related to the D allele of the ACE gene.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inhalation of nitric oxide (NO) has been shown to have beneficial effects on a variety of acute lung injuries, including lung allograft reperfusion injury. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of inhaled NO at the time of harvest on function of canine left lung allografts after transplantation. METHODS Ten dogs underwent left lung allotransplantation. Donor lungs were flushed with modified Euro-Collins solution and stored for 21 hours at 1 degree C. Immediately after transplantation, the contralateral main pulmonary artery and bronchus were ligated to assess isolated allograft function. Hemodynamics and arterial blood gases (inspired oxygen fraction, 1.0) were assessed intermittently for 6 hours prior to sacrifice. Allograft myeloperoxidase activity and wet to dry weight ratio were assessed. Donor animals were divided into two groups. Group I animals (n = 5) received no NO. In group II (n = 5), donors received inhaled NO (60 ppm) at the time of harvest. RESULTS Pulmonary vascular resistance decreased to 79.6% of baseline because of inhalation of 60 ppm NO in group II donor animals. Thiobarbituric acid-reactive materials were reduced during the storage period in group II, a finding suggesting less oxidant injury during storage in donor lungs treated with NO. Throughout the 6-hour assessment, oxygenation in group II was superior to that in group I (p < 0.05). At 360 minutes of assessment, mean arterial oxygen tension in groups I and II was 88.9 +/- 11.4 mm Hg and 169.1 +/- 33.0 mm Hg, respectively. Myeloperoxidase activity was significantly decreased in group II (p < 0.05), data indicating reduced neutrophil sequestration. Wet to dry weight ratio was significantly lower in group II. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that inhaled NO at the time of harvest improves early function of preserved lung allografts by attenuating oxidant injury during storage and subsequent neutrophil sequestration.

Abstract
The contribution of the cytochrome P450 3A pathway to bromocriptine metabolism, and the effects of ferrous iron and hypoxia-re-oxygenation on its elimination, were evaluated with the perfused rat liver. Outflow profiles of bromocriptine after bolus administration were estimated by moment analysis and dispersion model analysis. Kinetic parameters were not significantly changed by troleandomycin, a P450 3A inhibitor. The inhibition of bromocriptine metabolism by troleandomycin was 5.7 +/- 2.4%. These findings indicate that cytochrome P450 3A does not play an important role in bromocriptine elimination with the perfused rat liver. Elimination rate constant (ka) values were significantly increased by ferrous iron perfusion or hypoxia-re-oxygenation. Free-radical generation can, therefore, affect bromocriptine elimination. Our observations suggest that bromocriptine might be eliminated by scavenging of free radicals in the liver.

Abstract
Over the last decade, there has been accumulating evidence for a role of reactive oxygen metabolites in the pathogenesis of a variety of renal diseases, including gentamicin, glycerol, and cyclosporine A models of toxic acute renal failure. Gentamicin has been shown in both in vitro and in vivo studies to enhance the generation of reactive oxygen metabolites. Iron is important in models of tissue injury, presumably because it is capable of catalyzing free radical formation. Gentamicin has been shown to cause release of iron from renal cortical mitochondria. Scavengers of reactive oxygen metabolites as well as iron chelators provide protection in gentamicin-induced nephrotoxicity. In glycerol-induced acute renal failure, an animal model of rhabdomyolysis, there is enhanced generation of hydrogen peroxide, and scavengers of reactive oxygen metabolites and iron chelators provide protection. Although the dogma is that the myoglobin is the source of iron, the results of recent studies suggest that cytochrome P-450 may be an important source of iron in this model. In addition, there are marked alterations in antioxidant defenses, such as glutathione, as well as changes in heme oxygenase. Cyclosporine A has been shown to enhance the generation of hydrogen peroxide in vitro and lipid peroxidation in vitro and in vivo. Antioxidants have been shown to be protective in cyclosporine A nephrotoxicity. This collective body of evidence suggests an important role for reactive oxygen metabolites in toxic acute renal failure and may provide therapeutic opportunities of preventing or treating acute renal failure in humans.
