Abstract
BACKGROUND Exosomes, which are nanovesicles secreted by almost all the cells, mediate intercellular communication and are involved in various physiological and pathological processes. We aimed to investigate the effects of graphene oxide (GO) on the biogenesis and release of exosomes in human ovarian cancer (SKOV3) cells. METHODS Exosomes were isolated using ultracentrifugation and ExoQuick and characterized by various analytical techniques. The expression levels of exosome markers were analyzed via quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Graphene oxide (10-50 μg/mL), cisplatin (2-10 μg/mL), and C6-ceramide (5-25 μM) inhibited the cell viability, proliferation, and cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner. We observed that graphene oxide (GO), cisplatin (CIS), and C6-Ceramide (C6-Cer) stimulated acetylcholine esterase and neutral sphingomyelinase activity, total exosome protein concentration, and exosome counts associated with increased level of apoptosis, oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum stress. In contrast, GW4869 treatment inhibits biogenesis and release of exosomes. We observed that the human ovarian cancer cells secreted exosomes with typical cup-shaped morphology and surface protein biomarkers. The expression levels of TSG101, CD9, CD63, and CD81 were significantly higher in GO-treated cells than in control cells. Further, cytokine and chemokine levels were significantly higher in exosomes isolated from GO-treated SKOV3 cells than in those isolated from control cells. SKOV3 cells pre-treated with N-acetylcysteine or GW4869 displayed a significant reduction in GO-induced exosome biogenesis and release. Furthermore, endocytic inhibitors decrease exosome biogenesis and release by impairing endocytic pathways. CONCLUSION This study identifies GO as a potential tool for targeting the exosome pathway and stimulating exosome biogenesis and release. We believe that the knowledge acquired in this study can be potentially extended to other exosome-dominated pathologies and model systems. Furthermore, these nanoparticles can provide a promising means to enhance exosome production in SKOV3 cells.

Abstract
Polyunsaturated fatty acids are susceptible to peroxidation and they yield various degradation products, including the main α,β-unsaturated hydroxyalkenal, 4-hydroxy-2,3-trans-nonenal (HNE) in oxidative stress. Due to its high reactivity, HNE interacts with various macromolecules of the cell, and this general toxicity clearly contributes to a wide variety of pathological conditions. In addition, growing evidence suggests a more specific function of HNE in electrophilic signaling as a second messenger of oxidative/electrophilic stress. It can induce antioxidant defense mechanisms to restrain its own production and to enhance the cellular protection against oxidative stress. Moreover, HNE-mediated signaling can largely influence the fate of the cell through modulating major cellular processes, such as autophagy, proliferation and apoptosis. This review focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying the signaling and regulatory functions of HNE. The role of HNE in the pathophysiology of cancer, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases is also discussed.

Abstract
The modulating effects of a bisdemethoxycurcumin analog (BDMC-A) on 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-induced oxidative stress during colon carcinogenesis was investigated in male Wistar rats. The effects were compared with those of curcumin, a known anticarcinogen. All the animals given a weekly subcutaneous injection of DMH (20 mg/kg body wt.) for 15 weeks developed colon tumors. The colon and intestine administered DMH showed a decrease in lipid peroxidation with a concomitant increase in the activities of GSH-dependent enzymes (glutathione peroxidase, glutathione S-transferase) when compared to untreated control rats. In groups of animals given DMH and BDMC-A no tumors were observed, and the lipid peroxidation as well as the GSH-dependent enzymes showed a pattern similar to that of untreated control rats. We speculate that BDMC-A modulates DMH-induced oxidative stress and offers chemoprevention against colon carcinogenesis, and the modulatory effect is comparable with that of curcumin. Thus, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant status together could be used as markers of colon cancer chemoprevention by BDMC-A.

Abstract
Previously, we have shown that overexpression of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-detoxifying enzyme glutathione S-transferase A4-4 (hGSTA4-4) in human lens epithelial cells (HLE B-3) leads to pro-carcinogenic phenotypic transformation of these cells [R. Sharma, et al. Eur. J. Biochem. 271 (2004) 1960-1701]. We now demonstrate that hGSTA4-transfection also causes a profound change in the expression of genes involved in cell adhesion, cell cycle control, proliferation, cell growth, and apoptosis, which is consistent with phenotypic changes of the transformed cells. The expression of p53, p21, p16, fibronectin 1, laminin gamma1, connexin 43, Fas, integrin alpha6, TGFalpha, and c-jun was down-regulated, while the expression of protein kinase C beta II (PKCbetaII), c-myc, cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2), and TGFbeta was up-regulated in transfected cells. These results demonstrate that HNE serves as a crucial signaling molecule and, by modulating the expression of genes, can influence cellular functions.

Abstract
An original representative of the patented by author family of histamine-containing peptidomimetics L-glutamyl-histamine (L-Glu-Hist) was synthesized and characterized as a biologically active compound with a role of cytokine mimic leading to cellular responses of improved specificity. The study assesses the ability of L-Glu-Hist to affect molecular modeling, modulate free radical activity and influence immune cell signaling. The energy-minimized 3D conformations of L-Glu-Hist derived from its chemical structure resulted in stabilization for Fe2+ chelating complexes. L-Glu-Hist accelerated the decrease of ferrous iron in the ferrous sulfate solution in a concentration-dependent mode and showed the ferroxidase-like activity at concentrations less than 3 mM in the phenanthroline assay, whereas in the concentration range 3-20 mM L-Glu-Hist restricted the availability of Fe2+ to phenanthroline due to binding of ferrous ions in chelating complexes. L-Glu-Hist showed stimulatory effect on phosphatidylcholine liposomal peroxidation (LPO) catalyzed by the superoxide anion radical (O2*-)-generating system (Fe2+ + ascorbate) at low (less or about 1 mM) L-Glu-Hist concentrations and both revealed the inhibitory effect on LPO in this system of high (approximately 10 mM) L-Glu-Hist concentration. The stimulation of LPO by L-Glu-Hist was related to the ability of peptidomimetic in small (approximately 0.05 mM) concentrations to release O2*- free radicals as determined by the superoxide dismutase-inhibitable cytochrome c reduction assay. O2*- release by L-Glu-Hist might result from its ferroxidase-like activity, while inhibition of LPO by L-Glu-Hist was caused by its chelating activity to Fe2+ ions, prevention of free radical generation and lipid hydroperoxide-degrading ability of 5-20 mM L-Glu-Hist. L-Glu-Hist released O2*- in concentrations which stimulated [3H]-thymidine incorporation into DNA and proliferation of mouse spleen lymphocytes and mononuclear cells from human blood. L-Glu-Hist modulates the ability of oxygen free radicals to act as signaling agents at low concentrations, influencing gene expression. The structural peptide-like analogues of L-Glu-Hist such as L-Glu-Trp, carcinine (beta-alanylhistamine), but not L-Pro-Glu-Trp were active in stimulating thymidine incorporation and in inducing proliferation of mononuclear cells as compared to mitogen concanavalin A at doses 2.5-25.0 microg/ml. Our data provide evidence that L-Glu-Hist may act as a very fast, specific and sensitive trigger for lymphocyte proliferation and immunoregulation. The cited abilities and further obtained in vivo results make Immudilin ((INCI: glutamylamidoethyl imidazole, aqueous solution), L-Glu-Hist) a useful immunoregulatory agent.

Abstract
4-Hydroxy-trans-2-nonenal (HNE) was initially considered to be merely a toxic end product of lipid peroxidation that contributed to oxidative stress-related pathogenesis. However, in recent years its physiological role as an important "signaling molecule" has been established. HNE can modulate various signaling pathways in a concentration-dependent manner. Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are major determinants of the intracellular concentration of HNE, because these enzymes account for the metabolism of most cellular HNE through its conjugation to glutathione. Evidence is emerging that GSTs are involved in the regulation of the HNE-mediated signaling processes. Against the backdrop of our current understanding on the formation, metabolism, and role of HNE in signaling processes, the physiological role of GSTs in regulation of HNE-mediated signaling processes is critically evaluated in this chapter. Available evidence strongly suggests that besides their well-established pharmacological role of detoxifying xenobiotics, GSTs also play an important physiological role in the regulation of cellular signaling processes.

Abstract
The hypothesis that 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), a product of lipid peroxidation, might negatively affect cell proliferation, arose from the observation that lipid peroxidation is very low in tumors. In leukemic cells HNE inhibited cell growth and reduced c-myc and c-myb expression. HNE also induced differentiation in different leukemic cell lines. In HL-60 human leukemic cells, HNE induced the accumulation of cells in the G(0)/G(1) phase of the cell cycle accompanied by a decrease of cyclins D1, D2, and A. Moreover, HNE caused an increase in p21 expression. As cyclin D/CDK2 and cyclin A/CDK2 phosphorylate pRB, these findings suggested that pRb phosphorylation could be affected by HNE. Hypophosphorylated pRb binds and inactivates the E2F transcription factors. HNE induced the dephosphorylation of pRb and the increase in pRb/E2F1 complexes, whereas pRb/E2F4 complexes were reduced, because HNE downregulated E2F4 protein expression. The analysis of E2F binding to the P2 c-myc promoter revealed that HNE caused a decrease in "free" E2F, as well as an increase in pRb (and pRB family members) bound to E2F, with consequent repression of the transcription. In conclusion, HNE reduces E2F transcriptional activity by modifying a number of genes involved in regulation of the pRb/E2F pathway.

Abstract
4-hydroxynonenal is a major product of lipid peroxidation. It was firstly studied under the point of view of its toxicity, as it is an easily diffusable substance, thought to be able to explain the "far damages" seen in conditions of increased lipid peroxidation. Really, when used at concentration from 10 microM to 1 mM, usually referred to as high concentrations, the aldehyde is able to produce strong inhibitions of several enzymatic activities. When used, however, at concentration of 1 microM or lower, it displays a lot of activities regarding especially cell multiplication and differentiation. As the concentrations indicated above are usually found in normal tissues, these effects may be considered as physiological. As a low level of lipid peroxidation exists in normal tissues, the aldehyde displays signalling activities in normal cells. Among them, it is to consider the stimulation of neutrophil chemotaxis, the strong activation of plasmamembrane adenylate kinase, the strong activation of membrane phospholipase C, both in hepatocytes and neutrophils, the block in the expression of the oncogene c-myc in human leukemic cells, accompanied by differentiation of the same cells, the effects on the cyclins and the activity of E2F transcription factor, the strong increase of the expression of the gene for procollagen alfa1(I), occurring due to the activation of the c-jun/junkinases/AP-1 pathway. Moreover, it is able to block the activity of the PDGF-beta receptor. The last facts allow to think that a hydroxynonenal pathway works in the production of fibrosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Our aim was to assess the oxidative stress in tumor tissues of oral cancer patients by measuring the levels of lipids, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and antioxidants. DESIGN AND METHODS This study has been conducted on oral tumor tissues of 48 adult male oral cancer patients with various clinical stages (stage II to stage IV; 16 of each) and normal tissues of an equal number of age and sex matched disease free healthy subjects. The levels of lipids, lipid peroxidation and antioxidants in buccal mucosa of healthy subjects and oral cancer patients were assayed using colorimetric methods, except for vitamin E (fluorometriy). RESULTS Total cholesterol and esterified cholesterol were markedly increased whereas phospholipids and free fatty acids were significantly decreased in tumor tissues as compared to normal tissues. The decrease in TBARS levels and functional compromise of antioxidant defense mechanisms were observed in the tumor tissues as compared to normal subjects. CONCLUSIONS The low availability of peroxidizable substrates and the enhanced antioxidant capacity in tumor tissues make them less susceptible to oxidative stress, conferring a selective growth advantage on tumor cells.

Abstract
The effect of S-allylcysteine (SAC), a water-soluble garlic constituent, on 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA)-induced hamster buccal pouch (HBP) carcinogenesis was investigated in male Syrian hamstes. Forty hamsters were divided into 4 groups of 10 animals. The right buccal pouches of the animals in Group I were painted with a 0.5% solution of DMBA in liquid paraffin three times a week. The animals in Group II were painted with DMBA as in Group I and, in addition, received 200 mg/kg body wt p.o. SAC three times a week on days alternate to DMBA application. Group III animals received SAC as in Group II. Group IV animals received neither DMBA nor SAC and served as the control. The hamsters were killed after an experimental period of 14 wk. Measurement of lipid peroxidation, the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase, in the buccal pouch mucosa, liver, and circulation was used to monitor the chemopreventive potential of SAC. All hamsters painted with DMBA alone developed tumors identified histologically as well-differentiated squamous cell carcinomas. In hamsters bearing DMBA-induced buccal pouch tumors, diminished lipid peroxidation in the tumor tissue was accompanied by decreased activities of SOD and catalase, whereas in the liver and circulation, enhanced lipid peroxidation was associated with compromised antioxidant defenses. Administration of SAC suppressed the incidence of DMBA-induced HBP tumors as revealed by the absence of carcinomas. Histologically, only keratosis was observed. SAC modulated DMBA-induced decreased susceptibility of the HBP to lipid peroxidation while simultaneously enhancing SOD and catalase activities, whereas in the liver and circulation, SAC decreased the extent of lipid peroxidation and significantly enhanced antioxidant activities. We suggest that SAC exerts its chemopreventive effects by modulating lipid peroxidation and enhancing antioxidant activities in the target organ as well as in the liver and circulation.

Abstract
We investigated "the "chemopreventive potential of lycopene against gastric carcinogenesis induced in male Wistar rats by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) and saturated sodium chloride (S-NaCl). Administration of lycopene inhibited MNNG+S-NaCl-induced gastric carcinogenesis as revealed by the absence of carcinomas. Lipid peroxidation, reduced glutathione (GSH), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), glutathione S-transferase (GST) and glutathione reductase (GR) were used to monitor the chemopreventive potential of lycopene. The extent of lipid peroxidation was significantly lower, whereas GSH, GPx, GST and GR were markedly enhanced in the gastric mucosa of tumour-bearing animals. Our data suggest that lycopene may exert its inhibitory effects by modulating the oxidant and antioxidant status in the gastric mucosa.

Abstract
4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is one of the major end products of lipid peroxidation. Here we show that the exposure of murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells to 1 microM HNE, for 10.5 h over 2 days, induces a differentiation comparable with that observed in cells exposed to DMSO for the whole experiment (7 days). The exposure of MEL cells for the same length of time demonstrates a higher degree of differentiation in HNE-treated than in DMSO-treated MEL cells. The protooncogene c-myc is down-modulated early, in HNE-induced MEL cells as well as in DMSO-treated cells. However, ornithine decarboxylase gene expression first increases and then decreases, during the lowering of the proliferation rate. These findings indicate that HNE, at a concentration physiologically found in many normal tissues and in the plasma, induces MEL cell differentiation by modulation of specific gene expression.

Abstract
Exposure to pathogenic mineral dusts and fibres is associated with pulmonary changes including fibrosis and cancer. Investigations into aetiological mechanisms of these diseases have identified modifications in specific macromolecules as well as changes in certain early processes, which have preceded fibrosis and cancer. Peroxidation of lipids is one such modification, which is observed following exposure to mineral dusts and fibres. Their ability to initiate lipid peroxidation and the parameters that determine this ability have recently been reviewed. Part II of this review examines the relationship between the capacity of mineral dusts and fibres to initiate lipid peroxidation and a number of pathological changes they produce. The oxidative modification of polyunsaturated fatty acids is a major contributor to membrane damage in cells and has been implicated in a great variety of pathological processes. In most pathological conditions where an induction of lipid peroxidation is observed it is assumed to be the consequence of disease, without further establishing if the induction of lipid peroxidation may have preceded or accompanied the disease. In the great majority of instances, however, despite the difficulty in proving this association, a causal relationship between lipid peroxidation and disease cannot be ruled out.

Abstract
4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is a highly reactive aldehyde, produced by cellular lipid peroxidation, able to inhibit proliferation and to induce differentiation in MEL cells at concentrations similar to those detected in several normal tissues. Inducer-mediated differentiation of murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells is a multiple step process characterized by modulation of several genes as well as by a transient increase in the amount of membrane-associated protein kinase C (PKC) activity. Here we demonstrate that a rapid translocation of PKC activity from cytosol to the membranes occurs during the differentiation induced by HNE. When PKC is completely translocated by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (TPA), the degree of HNE-induced MEL cells differentiation is highly decreased. However, if TPA is washed out from the culture medium before the exposition to the aldehyde, HNE gradually resumes its differentiative ability. The incubation of cells with a selective inhibitor of PKC activity, bisindolylmaleimide GF 109203X, partially prevents the HNE-induced differentiation in MEL cells. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that HNE-induced MEL cell differentiation is preceded by a rapid translocation of PKC activity, and that the inhibition of this phenomenon prevents the onset of terminal differentiation.

Abstract
Cellular levels of downstream products of membrane lipid oxidation appear to regulate differentiation in K562 human erythroleukemia cells. 4-Hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) is a diffusible and relatively stable product of peroxidation of arachidonic and linoleic acids, cellular levels of which are regulated through metabolism to glutathione (GSH) conjugate by glutathione S-transferases (GSTs). A group of immunologically related alpha-class mammalian GSTs expressed in mice (mGST A4-4), rat (rGST A4-4), human (hGST A5.8), and other species, as well as the more distantly related human hGST A4-4, preferentially utilize 4-HNE as a substrate and are suggested to be major determinants of intracellular levels of 4-HNE. Present studies were designed to examine the effects of 4-HNE on K562 cells and to study the effect of transfection of mGSTA4-4 in these cells. Exposure of K562 cells to 20 microM 4-HNE for 2 h resulted in a rapid erythroid differentiation of K562 cells, as well as apoptosis evidenced by characteristic DNA laddering. Stable transfection of cells with mGST A4-4 resulted in a fivefold increase in GST-specific activity toward 4-HNE compared with wild-type or vector-only transfected cells. The mGST A4-4-transfected cells were resistant to the cytotoxic, apoptotic, and differentiating effects of 4-HNE. The mGST A4 transfection also conferred resistance to direct oxidative stress (IC(50) of H(2)O(2) 22, 23, and 35 microM for wild-type, vector-transfected, and mGST A4-transfected cells, respectively). mGST A4-4-transfected cells also showed a higher rate of proliferation compared with wild-type or vector-transfected K562 cells (doubling time 22.1 +/- 0.7, 31 +/- 1.2, and 29 +/- 0.6 h, respectively). Cellular 4-HNE levels determined by mass spectrometry were lower in mGST A4-4-transfected cells compared to cells transfected with vector alone (5.9 pmol/5 x 10(7) cells and 62.9 pmol/5 x 10(7) cells, respectively). Our studies show that 4-HNE can induce erythroid differentiation in K562 cells and that overexpression of mGST A4 suppresses 4-HNE levels and inhibits erythroid differentiation and apoptosis.

Abstract
mGSTA4-4, a murine glutathione S-transferase (GST) exhibiting high activity in conjugating the lipid peroxidation product 4-hydroxynon-2-enal (4-HNE) with glutathione (GSH), was crystallized in complex with the GSH conjugate of 4-HNE (GS-Hna). The structure has been solved at 2.6 A resolution, which reveals that the active site of one subunit of the dimeric enzyme binds GS-Hna, whereas the other binds GSH. A marked asymmetry between the two subunits is evident. Most noticeable are the differences in the conformation of arginine residues 69 and 15. In all GST structures published previously, the guanidino groups of R69 residues from both subunits stack at the dimer interface and are related by a (pseudo-) 2-fold axis. In the present structure of mGSTA4-4, however, the two R69 side chains point in opposite directions, although their guanidino groups remain in contact. In the subunit with bound GSH, R69 also interacts with R15, and the guanidino group of R15 points away from the active site, whereas in the subunit that binds GS-Hna, R15 pivots into the active site, which breaks its interaction with R69. According to our previous results [Nanduri et al. (1997) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 335, 305-310], the availability of R15 in the active site assists the conjugation of 4-HNE with GSH. We propose a model for the catalytic mechanism of mGSTA4-4 in conjugating 4-HNE with GSH-i.e., the guanidino group of R15 is available in the active site of only one subunit at any given time and the stacked pair of R69 residues act as a switch that couples the concerted movement of the two R15 side chains. The alternate occupancy of 4-HNE in the two subunits has been confirmed by our kinetic analysis that shows the negative cooperativity of mGSTA4-4 for 4-HNE. Disruption of the signaling between the subunits by mutating the R69 residues released the negative cooperativity with 4-HNE.

Abstract
We examined the extent of lipid peroxidation and the status of reduced glutathione (GSH) and the GSH-dependent enzymes-glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and glutathione-S-transferase (GST)-in oral tumour tissues from 33 adult oral cancer patients and an equal number of age- and sex-matched normal subjects. Diminished lipid peroxidation in the oral tumour tissue was accompanied by a significant decrease in phospholipids and an increase in the cholesterol/phospholipid (C/P) ratio. The concentration of glutathione and the activities of GPx and GST were elevated in oral tumour tissues. These findings suggest that GSH- and GSH-dependent enzymes play a crucial role in tobacco-related tumourigenesis and may be considered as markers of carcinogen exposure.

Abstract
trans-4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) is an end-product of lipid peroxidation in biological systems which produces a variety of powerful biological effects. A method based on electrospray mass spectrometry was developed for the determination of 4-HNE at cellular levels. Quantification was carried out by using HNE-d(11) as internal standard; the mass chromatograms were acquired in the single ion monitoring mode (SIM) on the [M + H](+) monoisotopic species for HNE and HNE-d(11). With this approach a higher precision and lower detection limit and biological sample size than those typical of the methods so far employed are achieved. Furthermore the determination of the analyte from the cell extract is directly performed without the need of any HNE derivatization. As a first application the method was used to identify and quantify HNE in human T cell leukemia extracts.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI) and other pro-oxidant agents are known to elicit, in vivo and in vitro, oxidative decomposition of omega-3 and omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids of membrane phospholipids (i.e, lipid peroxidation). This leads to the formation of a complex mixture of aldehydic end-products, including malonyldialdehyde (MDA), 4-hydroxy-2,3-nonenal (HNE), and other 4-hydroxy-2,3-alkenals (HAKs) of different chain length. These aldehydic molecules have been considered originally as ultimate mediators of toxic effects elicited by oxidative stress occurring in biological material. Experimental and clinical evidence coming from different laboratories now suggests that HNE and HAKs can also act as bioactive molecules in either physiological and pathological conditions. These aldehydic compounds can affect and modulate, at very low and nontoxic concentrations, several cell functions, including signal transduction, gene expression, cell proliferation, and, more generally, the response of the target cell(s). In this review article, we would like to offer an up-to-date review on this particular aspect of oxidative stress--dependent modulation of cellular functions-as well as to offer comments on the related pathophysiological implications, with special reference to human conditions of disease.

Abstract
It has been shown previously that oxidative stress by ferrous iron in vitro leads to an inhibition of proliferation of murine ascites tumour cells in vivo. This effect is associated with increased lipid peroxidation in terms of formation of the highly reactive aldehyde 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), which has been shown to inhibit the proliferation of numerous tumours and to induce differentiation. It was the purpose of this article to study the occurrence and metabolism of HNE and its inducibility by oxidative stress in hepatomas of different degrees of differentiation to find further evidence for a possible role of HNE in proliferation and/or differentiation, because it is known that in hepatoma cells with a very low degree of differentiation basal lipid peroxidation is hardly detectable, while in normal hepatocytes the basal level of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBArS) is rather high. MH1C1 hepatoma cells and Yoshida AH-130 hepatoma cells were chosen as highly differentiated and poorly differentiated tumour cells, respectively, and rat hepatocytes served as a control for normal liver phenotype. Ferrous histidinate (Fe/His) did not have a cytotoxic effect on Yoshida and MH1C1 cells, as measured by the LDH release test. In cell culture studies Fe/His revealed a dose dependent inhibition of the proliferation of Yoshida cells. The incorporation of 3H-thymidine into DNA of these cells was also inhibited by Fe/His in a dose-dependent manner, while the precursor uptake into the cytoplasm was unaffected. The basal levels of HNE were in the order: hepatocytes > MH1C1 cells > Yoshida cells. Both hepatocytes and Yoshida cells responded to the presence of Fe/His with increased formation of TBArS. Compared with hepatocytes the response of the Yoshida cells was greatly reduced. The response of cells to Fe/His with respect to HNE formation was decreased in the order: hepatocytes > MH1C1 cells > Yoshida cells, but in this case the differences were not very pronounced. The metabolic capacity of the cells to consume HNE was also decreased in the order: hepatocytes > MH1C1 cells > Yoshida cells. In this case the differences were very pronounced. These findings support the view that Yoshida cells with a low degree of differentiation and a low basal level of HNE are released from an inhibitory effect of HNE operative in hepatocytes and that HNE is causally involved in the iron induced inhibition of proliferation of poorly differentiated hepatoma cells.

Abstract
4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), one of the major products of lipid peroxidation, inactivated the rate-limiting enzymes (from animal sources) of the glycolytic pathway and the pentose phosphate pathway when incubated at 37 degrees C for 1 h in the absence of glutathione (GSH). The HNE concentration for half-maximal inactivation of 6-phosphofructokinase (PFK) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase was 3-10 microM; and that value for pyruvate kinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and hexokinases I and II was 0.15-0.6 mM. In the presence of 5 mM GSH, however, only PFK, irrespective of the source (muscle, liver, or erythrocyte), was inactivated by 40-50% when incubated with 0.1 mM HNE for 1 h. Even PFK was not inactivated in the presence of both GSH and its substrate, ATP (2 mM). Glycolysis in human erythrocytes was not affected by treatment of cells with 0.1 mM HNE at 37 degrees C for 30 min. The results suggest that HNE, at concentrations observable under physiological and pathological conditions, hardly affects glycolysis in cells.

Abstract
Apoptosis has been described as programmed active cell death. Overexpression of the c-Myc gene has been shown to induce apoptosis in Rat1A/Myc-ER cells when combined with a growth blocking agent. In the present study, we tested whether 4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) or N-acetyl-L-cysteine (LNAC) affect apoptotic death in serum deprived Rat1A/Myc-ER cells caused by the c-Myc protein. The incidence of apoptosis in growth arrested cells was confirmed photographically and by ladder pattern formation seen on agarose gel electrophoresis. To study the effect of HNE and LNAC, the cells were cultured in 0.5% serum and treated with various concentrations of HNE and LNAC, c-Myc was then activated by addition of 2 microM beta-estradiol. Two separate parameters were used to determine the rate of cell death. In the first, the amount of DNA isolated from dying cells was compared by UV absorption. As the second parameter, the cell numbers were determined by counting. Our results showed that 1 microM of HNE has no effect on apoptotic cell death. However, 10 microM HNE decreased the amount of DNA isolated while increasing the cell count 14% relative to cells treated only with beta-estradiol. In addition, we found that various concentrations of the antioxidant LNAC does not protect cells from c-Myc induced death. However, it supports cell survival in 0.5% serum and causes an increase in cell number.

Abstract
4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is a highly reactive aldehyde produced by lipid peroxidation of cellular membranes that inhibits growth and induces differentiation in HL-60 cells. Its mechanisms of action were investigated by analyzing the cell cycle distribution and the appearance of differentiated phenotypes in HL-60 cells. Data obtained by exposing cells to DMSO for 7.5 h (same time as for HNE treatment) or for the whole length of the experiments (5 d) were used for comparison. HNE induced a marked increase in the proportion of G0/G1 cells after 1 and 2 d. The brief DMSO treatment did not affect the distribution, whereas continuous exposure led to a progressive accumulation of cells in G0/G1 (maximal at day 5). The proportion of phagocytic cells gradually increased in HNE-treated and DMSO long-exposed cultures from day 2 and peaked at day 5 (35 and 63%, respectively), whereas the effect of the brief DMSO treatment was negligible. The expression of CD11b and CD67 increased in cells treated with HNE or continuously exposed to DMSO, whereas CD36 was expressed at low levels on both treatments. These results indicate that the pathway of the granulocytic differentiation induced by HNE in HL-60 cells differs from that of DMSO: with HNE, growth inhibition precedes the onset of differentiation, whereas in DMSO-treated cells the two processes are chronologically associated.

Abstract
Intracellular levels of H2O2 in BHK-21 cells are not static but decline progressively with cell growth. Exposure of cells to inhibitors of catalase, or glutathione peroxidase, not only diminishes this decline but also depresses rates of cell proliferation, suggesting important growth regulatory roles for those antioxidant enzymes. Other agents which also diminish the growth-associated decline in intracellular levels of H2O2, such as the superoxide dismutase mimic, copper II-(3,5-diisopropylsalicylate)2, or docosahexaenoic acid, also reduced cell proliferation. In contrast, proliferation can be stimulated by the addition of 1 microM exogenous H2O2 to the culture medium. Under these conditions, however, intracellular levels of H2O2 are unaffected, whereas there is a reduction in intracellular levels of glutathione. It is argued that critical balances between intracellular levels of both H2O2 and glutathione are of significance in relation both to growth stimulation and inhibition. In addition growth stimulatory concentrations of H2O2, whilst initially leading to increased intracellular levels of lipid peroxidation breakdown products, appear to "trigger" their metabolism, possibly through aldehyde dehydrogenase, whose activity is also stimulated by H2O2.

Abstract
A wide variety of normal and malignant cell types generate and release superoxide or hydrogen peroxide in vitro either in response to specific cytokine/growth factor stimulus or constitutively in the case of tumour cells. These species at submicromolar levels appear to act as novel intra and intercellular "messengers" capable of promoting growth responses in culture. The mechanisms may involve direct interaction with specific receptors or oxidation of growth signal transduction molecules such as protein kinases, protein phosphatases, transcription factors, or transcription factor inhibitors. It is also possible that hydrogen peroxide may modulate the redox state and activity of these important signal transduction proteins indirectly through changes in cellular levels of GSH and GSSG. Critical balances appear to exist in relation to cell proliferation on one hand and lipid peroxidation and cell death on the other. Progression to a more prooxidant state whilst initially leading to enhanced proliferative responses results subsequently in increased cell death.

Abstract
To explore the chemistry of the reactions of the cytotoxic aldehyde trans-4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) with proteins, we incubated this aldehyde in vitro with beta-lactoglobulin B, a model protein of molecular weight 18,277 Da. Direct characterization of reaction products using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry yielded spectra whose complexity suggested extensive product heterogeneity. Spectra were transformed to a true mass scale using both a conventional transform algorithm and a maximum entropy algorithm. Both transformations demonstrated the formation of aldehyde-protein adducts containing from three to nine aldehyde molecules per molecule of protein. Maximum entropy deconvolution resolved Schiff base adducts and/or dehydration products, differing from the Michael addition adducts by 18 Da. The dominant reaction pathway, however, was Michael addition of the aldehyde to nucleophilic functional groups on the protein. The large number of Michael adducts relative to the one available cysteine requires that other amino acids, such as histidine and lysine, also be modified. The data suggest that methods for analysis of HNE that involve displacement of Schiff base groups from proteins will only recover a small fraction of HNE.

Abstract
In this review we have tried to present the current thinking on the consequences for lipids of their interactions with free radicals and the pathological implications. In particular, atherosclerosis and cancer have been addressed. In the case of the former, it is not clear whether the initial oxidative event is an enzymic or free radical-mediated process as yet. However, the importance of the antioxidants in controlling LDL oxidation, macrophage uptake of oxidatively modified LDL and progression of atheroma in animal models certainly suggests an important propagative role for free radical-mediated events. With regard to cancer, oxidative modification of cell lipids has potential consequences for tumour cell proliferation. Whilst lipid hydroperoxides can serve as an origin of prostaglandins with tumour inhibitor (or immunosuppressive) properties, they may also influence cellular growth regulatory proteins normally dependent on membrane lipid integrity. Alternatively, they may function as a source of aldehydic breakdown products capable of 'down-regulating' cell proliferation through covalent modification of regulatory proteins. Oils rich in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids have toxic effects towards tumour cells. This toxicity is not mediated by prostaglandins but rather through the capacity of such agents to elevate the levels of lipid peroxides. This may be enhanced by active oxygen species released constitutively from tumour cells.

Abstract
Several studies point to the existence of an inverse correlation between cellular lipid peroxidation and both cell proliferation and neoplastic transformation. In anaplastic cell lines products of membrane lipid peroxidation are very low or undetectable. Furthermore numerous results demonstrate effect of lipid peroxidation products on central biochemical pathways and intracellular signalling at physiological concentrations. 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) is one of the most active products of lipid peroxidation. The restoration of HNE physiological concentrations in neoplastic cells may inhibit cell proliferation and modulate cell re-differentiation. This review try to summarize and critically discuss the effects of physiological concentrations of HNE on normal and neoplastic cell line.

Abstract
4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is the major diffusible toxic product generated by lipid peroxidation of cellular membranes. The level of lipid peroxidation and, consequently, the concentration of its products are inversely related to the rate of cell proliferation and directly related to the level of cell differentiation. In the present paper the effects of HNE on the proliferation and differentiation of the HL-60 human promyelocytic cell line have been investigated. Repeated treatment at 45-min intervals with HNE (1 microM) was performed to maintain the cells in the presence of the aldehyde for 7 1/2 or 9 h. The effect of HNE on cell proliferation and differentiation was compared with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-treated cells. HNE causes a strong inhibition of cell growth without affecting cell viability. Moreover, HL-60 cells acquire the capability to produce chemiluminescence after soluble (phorbol myristate acetate) or corpuscolate (zymosan) stimulation. The phagocytic ability has also been calculated by counting the number of cells that phagocytize opsonized zymosan. Values were 43 and 55% after 10 or 12 HNE treatments, respectively, and 88% in DMSO-treated cells. Myeloperoxidase activity, 5 days after treatment, decreased by 85% in either HNE- or DMSO-treated cells while acid phosphatase activity increased with respect to untreated cells. Results obtained indicate that HNE at concentrations close to those found in the normal tissues can induce inhibition of proliferation and induction of differentiation in the HL-60 cell line.
