Abstract
We previously demonstrated that circulating extracellular vesicles (EVs) from patients with valvular heart disease (VHD; vEVs) contain inflammatory components and inhibit endothelium-dependent vasodilation. Neutrophil chemotaxis plays a key role in renal dysfunction, and dexmedetomidine (DEX) can reduce renal dysfunction in cardiac surgery. However, the roles of vEVs in neutrophil chemotaxis and effects of DEX on vEVs are unknown. Here, we investigated the impact of vEVs on neutrophil chemotaxis in kidneys and the influence of DEX on vEVs. Circulating EVs were isolated from healthy subjects and patients with VHD. The effects of EVs on chemokine generation, forkhead box protein O3a (FOXO3a) pathway activation and neutrophil chemotaxis on cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and kidneys in mice and the influence of DEX on EVs were detected. vEVs increased FOXO3a expression, decreased phosphorylation of Akt and FOXO3a, promoted FOXO3a nuclear translocation, and activated the FOXO3a signaling pathway in vitro. DEX pretreatment reduced vEV-induced CXCL4 and CCL5 expression and neutrophil chemotaxis in cultured HUVECs via the FOXO3a signaling pathway. vEVs were also found to suppress Akt phosphorylation and activate FOXO3a signaling to increase plasma levels of CXCL4 and CCL5 and neutrophil accumulation in kidney. The overall mechanism was inhibited in vivo with DEX pretreatment. Our data demonstrated that vEVs induced CXCL4-CCL5 to stimulate neutrophil infiltration in kidney, which can be inhibited by DEX via the FOXO3a signaling. Our findings reveal a unique mechanism involving vEVs in inducing neutrophils chemotaxis and may provide a novel basis for using DEX in reducing renal dysfunction in valvular heart surgery.

Abstract
Obesity increases the risk of vascular diseases, including aortic aneurysm (AA). Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) surrounding arteries are altered during obesity. However, the underlying mechanism of adipose tissue, especially PVAT, in the pathogenesis of AA is still unclear. Here we showed that angiotensin II (AngII) infusion increases the incidence of AA in leptin-deficient obese mice (ob/ob) and high-fat diet-induced obese mice with adventitial inflammation. Furthermore, transcriptome analysis revealed that platelet-derived growth factor-D (PDGF-D) was highly expressed in the PVAT of ob/ob mice. Therefore, we hypothesized that PDGF-D mediates adventitial inflammation, which provides a direct link between PVAT dysfunction and AA formation in AngII-infused obese mice. We found that PDGF-D promotes the proliferation, migration, and inflammatory factors expression in cultured adventitial fibroblasts. In addition, the inhibition of PDGF-D function significantly reduced the incidence of AA in AngII-infused obese mice. More importantly, adipocyte-specific PDGF-D transgenic mice are more susceptible to AA formation after AngII infusion accompanied by exaggerated adventitial inflammatory and fibrotic responses. Collectively, our findings reveal a notable role of PDGF-D in the AA formation during obesity, and modulation of this cytokine might be an exploitable treatment strategy for the condition.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS To examine the effects of incubation of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) under hyperglycaemic conditions on several functions of HDL in vitro. METHODS Human HDL (5 mg protein) was incubated for 1 week at 37 degrees C in the presence or absence of 25 mmol/l glucose. Additional samples of human HDL were incubated in butylated hydroxytoluene to control for oxidation. RESULTS High-density lipoprotein incubated for 1 week in 25 mmol/l glucose had significant increases in the glycation product, fructoselysine and in the advanced glycation end product, N epsilon-(carboxymethyl)-lysine. High-density lipoprotein apolipoprotein AI and AII concentrations were not altered but glycated HDL had a 65% reduction in paraoxonase enzymatic activity. Glycated HDL did not inhibit monocyte adhesion to human aortic endothelial cells in response to oxidised low-density lipoprotein in vitro (43 +/- 4 monocytes bound vs 21 +/- 2 monocytes for control HDL, p < 0.0001). Hepatic lipase-mediated non-esterified fatty acid release from HDL lipids was enhanced in glycated HDL compared with control HDL (25 +/- 1 vs 16 +/- 1 nmol non-esterified fatty acid hydrolysed/min, respectively, p < 0.0001). Direct glycation of purified paraoxonase protein by incubation in 25 mmol/l glucose caused a 40% reduction in enzymatic activity. This glycated paraoxonase did not inhibit monocyte adhesion to human aortic endothelial cells in vitro (68 +/- 3 monocytes vs 49 +/- 2 monocytes bound for control paraoxonase, respectively, p < 0.001). We also measured a 40% reduction in paraoxonase activity in patients with Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus and documented coronary artery disease compared with non-diabetic subjects, p < 0.0001. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Alterations in function of HDL caused by exposure to hyperglycaemic conditions could contribute to the accelerated atherosclerosis observed in Type II diabetes.

Abstract
PURPOSE We determined whether pre-enrichment of low density lipoproteins (LDL) with alpha-tocopherol mitigates their adverse effects, following in vitro glycation, oxidation or glycoxidation, towards cultured bovine retinal capillary endothelial cells (RCEC) and pericytes. METHODS LDL, while still in plasma obtained and pooled from non-diabetic humans, was supplemented in vitro with alpha-tocopherol. It was then isolated and modified in vitro by glycation, minimal oxidation, and glycoxidation. Bovine RCEC and pericytes were exposed to LDL (100mg protein/ ml) for three days. Cell count was determined by cell counting, supernatant levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) by ELISA, and nitrite levels by spectroscopic colorimetric assay. RESULTS While pre-enrichment of LDL with alpha-tocopherol did not reduce the measured extent of lipoprotein modification, it abolished the reduction in cell count observed with glycated, oxidized and glycoxidized LDL v. normal LDL. Pre-enrichment of LDL with alpha-tocopherol also reduced RCEC supernatant PAI-1 and ET-1 (corrected for cell counts) and increased RCEC and pericyte-associated supernatant nitrite levels: such effects of alpha-tocopherol may inhibit clot formation and favor vasodilatation. CONCLUSIONS Enrichment of LDL with alpha-tocopherol abolishes adverse effects of glycated, mildly oxidized, and glycoxidized LDL on cultured retinal cell count, and mitigates adverse effects on modulators of fibrinolysis and vascular tone. Direct evidence is required before Vitamin E supplementation is recommended for people with diabetes.

Abstract
Aminoguanidine, an inhibitor of advanced glycation reactions in vitro, inhibits the development of diabetic complications in animal models of diabetes, suggesting that it acts by inhibition of advanced glycation reactions in vivo. However, effects of aminoguanidine on the formation of specific advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) in vivo have not been rigorously examined. Therefore, we studied the effects of aminoguanidine on the formation of pentosidine and N(epsilon)-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), measured by analytical chemical methods, in collagen of streptozotocin-diabetic Lewis rats at doses which ameliorated urinary albumin excretion, an index of diabetic nephropathy. At 12 weeks, diabetic animals had fivefold higher blood glucose, threefold higher glycated hemoglobin and fivefold higher collagen glycation, compared to metabolically healthy controls; pentosidine and CML in skin collagen were increased by approximately 30 and 150%, respectively. Administration of aminoguanidine, 50 mg/kg by daily intraperitoneal injection, significantly inhibited the development of albuminuria (approximately 60%, P < 0.01) in diabetic rats, without an effect on blood glucose or glycation of hemoglobin or collagen. Surprisingly, aminoguanidine failed to inhibit the increase in pentosidine and CML in diabetic rat skin collagen. Similar results were obtained in an independent experiment in which aminoguanidine was administered in drinking water at a dose of 0.5 g/l. We conclude that the therapeutic benefits of aminoguanidine on albuminuria may not be the result of inhibition of AGE formation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced glycation end products (AGEs), formed by non-enzymatic glycation and oxidation (glycoxidation) reactions, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of several diseases, including normoglycemic uremia. AGE research in uremia has focused on the accumulation of carbohydrate-derived adducts generated by the Maillard reaction. Recent studies, however, have demonstrated that one AGE, the glycoxidation product carboxymethyllysine (CML), could be derived not only from carbohydrates but also from oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in vitro, raising the possibility that both carbohydrate and lipid autoxidation might be increased in uremia. METHODS To address this hypothesis, we applied gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and high performance liquid chromatography to measure protein adducts formed in uremic plasma by reactions between carbonyl compounds and protein amino groups: pentosidine derived from carbohydrate-derived carbonyls, malondialdehyde (MDA)-lysine derived from lipid-derived carbonyls, and CML originating possibly from both sources. RESULTS All three adducts were elevated in uremic plasma. Plasma CML levels were mainly (>95%) albumin bound. Their levels were not correlated with fructoselysine levels and were similar in diabetic and non-diabetic patients on hemodialysis, indicating that their increase was not driven by glucose. Pentosidine and MDA-lysine were also increased in plasma to the same extent in diabetic and non-diabetic hemodialysis patients. Statistical analysis indicated that plasma levels of CML correlated weakly (P < 0.05) with those of pentosidine and MDA-lysine, but that pentosidine and MDA-lysine varied independently (P > 0.5). CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that the increased levels of AGEs in blood, and probably in tissues, reported in uremia implicate a broad derangement in non-enzymatic biochemistry involving alterations in autoxidation of both carbohydrates and lipids.

Abstract
Glycation and subsequent Maillard or browning reactions of glycated proteins, leading to the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs), are involved in the chemical modification of proteins during normal aging and have been implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications. Oxidative conditions accelerate the browning of proteins by glucose, and AGE proteins also induce oxidative stress responses in cells bearing AGE receptors. These observations have led to the hypothesis that glycation-induced pathology results from a cycle of oxidative stress, increased chemical modification of proteins via the Maillard reaction, and further AGE-dependent oxidative stress. Here we show that the preparation of AGE-collagen by incubation with glucose under oxidative conditions in vitro leads not only to glycation and formation of the glycoxidation product Nepsilon-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), but also to the formation of amino acid oxidation products on protein, including m-tyrosine, dityrosine, dopa, and valine and leucine hydroperoxides. The formation of both CML and amino acid oxidation products was prevented by anaerobic, anti-oxidative conditions. Amino acid oxidation products were also formed when glycated collagen, prepared under anti-oxidative conditions, was allowed to incubate under aerobic conditions that led to the formation of CML. These experiments demonstrate that amino acid oxidation products are formed in proteins during glycoxidation reactions and suggest that reactive oxygen species formed by redox cycling of dopa or by the metal-catalysed decomposition of amino acid hydroperoxides, rather than by redox activity or reactive oxygen production by AGEs on protein, might contribute to the induction of oxidative stress by AGE proteins.

Abstract
Malondialdehyde (MDA) and 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) are major end-products of oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids, and are frequently measured as indicators of lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress in vivo. MDA forms Schiff-base adducts with lysine residues and cross-links proteins in vitro; HNE also reacts with lysines, primarily via a Michael addition reaction. We have developed methods using NaBH4 reduction to stabilize these adducts to conditions used for acid hydrolysis of protein, and have prepared reduced forms of lysine-MDA [3-(N epsilon-lysino)propan-1-ol (LM)], the lysine-MDA-lysine iminopropene cross-link [1,3-di(N epsilon-lysino)propane (LML)] and lysine-HNE [3-(N epsilon-lysino)-4-hydroxynonan-l-ol (LHNE)]. Gas chromatography/MS assays have been developed for quantification of the reduced compounds in protein. RNase incubated with MDA or HNE was used as a model for quantification of the adducts by gas chromatography/MS. There was excellent agreement between measurement of MDA bound to RNase as LM and LML, and as thiobarbituric acid-MDA adducts measured by HPLC; these adducts accounted for 70-80% of total lysine loss during the reaction with MDA. LM and LML (0.002-0.12 mmol/ mol of lysine) were also found in freshly isolated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) from healthy subjects. LHNE was measured in RNase treated with HNE, but was not detectable in native LDL. LM, LML and LHNE increased in concert with the formation of conjugated dienes during the copper-catalysed oxidation of LDL, but accounted for modification of < 1% of lysine residues in oxidized LDL. These results are the first report of direct chemical measurement of MDA and HNE adducts to lysine residues in LDL. LM, LML and LHNE should be useful as biomarkers of lipid peroxidative modification of protein and of oxidative stress in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Nepsilon-(Carboxymethyl)lysine (CML) is an advanced glycation end product formed on protein by combined nonenzymatic glycation and oxidation (glycoxidation) reactions. We now report that CML is also formed during metal-catalyzed oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the presence of protein. During copper-catalyzed oxidation in vitro, the CML content of low density lipoprotein increased in concert with conjugated dienes but was independent of the presence of the Amadori compound, fructoselysine, on the protein. CML was also formed in a time-dependent manner in RNase incubated under aerobic conditions in phosphate buffer containing arachidonate or linoleate; only trace amounts of CML were formed from oleate. After 6 days of incubation the yield of CML in RNase from arachidonate was approximately 0.7 mmol/mol lysine compared with only 0.03 mmol/mol lysine for protein incubated under the same conditions with glucose. Glyoxal, a known precursor of CML, was also formed during incubation of RNase with arachidonate. These results suggest that lipid peroxidation, as well as glycoxidation, may be an important source of CML in tissue proteins in vivo and that CML may be a general marker of oxidative stress and long term damage to protein in aging, atherosclerosis, and diabetes.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is implicated in the pathogenesis of numerous disease processes including diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, ischaemia reperfusion injury and rheumatoid arthritis. Chemical modification of amino acids in protein during lipid peroxidation results in the formation of lipoxidation products which may serve as indicators of oxidative stress in vivo. The focus of the studies described here was initially to identify chemical modifications of protein derived exclusively from lipids in order to assess the role of lipid peroxidative damage in the pathogenesis of disease. Malondialdehye (MDA) and 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) are well characterized oxidation products of polyunsaturated fatty acids on low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and adducts of these compounds have been detected by immunological means in atherosclerotic plaque. Thus, we first developed gas chromatography-mass spectrometry assays for the Schiff base adduct of MDA to lysine, the lysine-MDA-lysine diimine cross-link and the Michael addition product of HNE to lysine. Using these assays, we showed that the concentrations of all three compounds increased significantly in LDL during metal-catalysed oxidation in vitro. The concentration of the advanced glycation end-product N epsilon-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML) also increased during LDL oxidation, while that of its putative carbohydrate precursor the Amadori compound N epsilon-(1-deoxyfructose-1-yl)lysine did not change, demonstrating that CML is a marker of both glycoxidation and lipoxidation reactions. These results suggest that MDA and HNE adducts to lysine residues should serve as biomarkers of lipid modification resulting from lipid peroxidation reactions, while CML may serve as a biomarker of general oxidative stress resulting from both carbohydrate and lipid oxidation reactions.

Abstract
Nonenzymatic glycation of body proteins and subsequent advanced glycation reactions have been implicated in the aging process, while caloric restriction (CR) in rodents results in an increase in both mean and maximum life span. We have evaluated the effect of chronic (25 months) CR on glycation of blood proteins and accumulation of advanced glycation and oxidation (glycoxidation) products, N epsilon-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), and pentosidine, in skin collagen. Brown-Norway rats, fed ad libitum (AL) from birth, were divided into two equal groups at 4 months of age and placed on AL or CR diets (CR = 60% of AL diet). Cohorts of animals were sacrificed at 7, 13, and 25 months after the initiation of CR. At necropsy glycated hemoglobin was measured by affinity HPLC and glycated plasma protein by the fructosamine assay; extracts of skin collagen were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry for CML and by reversed-phase HPLC for pentosidine. Glycation of hemoglobin, plasma proteins, and skin collagen was decreased significantly (18-33%) by CR. Concentrations of CML and pentosidine increased significantly with age in skin collagen in both AL and CR animals; however, CR significantly reduced levels of CML (25%), pentosidine (50%), and fluorescence (15%) in collagen in the oldest rats. We conclude that CR reduces the extent of glycation of blood and tissue proteins and the age-related accumulation of glycoxidation products in skin collagen.

Abstract
The Maillard or browning reaction between sugar and protein contributes to the increased chemical modification and cross-linking of long-lived tissue proteins in diabetes. To evaluate the role of glycation and oxidation in these reactions, we have studied the effects of oxidative and antioxidative conditions and various types of inhibitors on the reaction of glucose with rat tail tendon collagen in phosphate buffer at physiological pH and temperature. The chemical modifications of collagen that were measured included fructoselysine, the glycoxidation products N epsilon-(carboxymethyl)lysine and pentosidine and fluorescence. Collagen cross-linking was evaluated by analysis of cyanogen bromide peptides using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and by changes in collagen solubilization on treatment with pepsin or sodium dodecylsulfate. Although glycation was unaffected, formation of glycoxidation products and cross-linking of collagen were inhibited by antioxidative conditions. The kinetics of formation of glycoxidation products proceeded with a short lag phase and were independent of the amount of Amadori adduct on the protein, suggesting that autoxidative degradation of glucose was a major contributor to glycoxidation and cross-linking reactions. Chelators, sulfhydryl compounds, antioxidants, and aminoguanidine also inhibited formation of glycoxidation products, generation of fluorescence, and cross-linking of collagen without significant effect on the extent of glycation of the protein. We conclude that autoxidation of glucose or Amadori compounds on protein plays a major role in the formation of glycoxidation products and cross-liking of collagen by glucose in vitro and that chelators, sulfhydryl compounds, antioxidants, and aminoguanidine act as uncouplers of glycation from subsequent glycoxidation and cross-linking reactions.

Abstract
The role of oxygen in chemical modification and cross-linking of rat tail collagen by glucose was studied at physiological pH and temperature in vitro. Cross-linking of collagen under air depended on glucose concentration, but was inhibited under antioxidative conditions (nitrogen atmosphere with transition metal chelators). The cross-linking reaction under air depended on phosphate buffer concentration, but this effect was eliminated by addition of chelators, identifying trace metal ions in the buffer as catalysts of oxidative cross-linking reaction. Antioxidative conditions had no effect on glycation, that is, formation of fructose lysine, but inhibited formation of the glycoxidation products N epsilon-(carboxymethyl)lysine and pentosidine as well as the development of fluorescence in glycated collagen. Glycation itself decreased during continued incubation of the collagen without glucose; however, cross-linking and concentrations of glycoxidation products and fluorescence in collagen were not reversible under either oxidative or antioxidative conditions. These observations are consistent with recent studies in vivo on the reversibility of collagen glycation, the irreversibility of formation of glycoxidation products and fluorescence, and the strong correlations between glycoxidation products and fluorescence in collagen (1). These results indicate that oxidation reactions play a critical role in the extended chemical modification and cross-linking of collagen by glucose and suggest that measurement of glycoxidation products should be useful for assessing cumulative chemical modification of collagen by glucose in vivo.
