Abstract
ABSTRACT The energy used by the heart is generated mainly by the metabolism of fatty acids and glucose. Trimetazidine (TMZ) inhibits fatty acid metabolism and is used for the treatment of heart diseases such as heart failure. 3-Bromopyruvate (3-BrPA) can suppress glucose metabolism, and it is considered a promising candidate agent for tumor therapy. Because TMZ and 3-BrPA can separately inhibit the 2 main cardiac energy sources, it is necessary to investigate the effects of 3-BrPA combined with TMZ on the heart. Forty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: a control group, a TMZ group, a 3-BrPA group, and a 3-BrPA + TMZ group. Weight was recorded every day, and echocardiography was performed 14 days later. Heart function, the levels of adenosine triphosphate, oxidative stress-related factors (ROS, glutathione, oxidized glutathione, malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase and total antioxidant capacity), and apoptosis in heart tissues were assessed to evaluate the effects of 3-BrPA and TMZ on the heart. In our study, no obvious changes occurred in the 3-BrPA group or the TMZ group compared with the control group. The combination of 3-BrPA and TMZ worsened heart function, decreased adenosine triphosphate levels, and increased oxidative stress and myocardial apoptosis. In conclusion, 3-BrPA and TMZ are not recommended for concurrent use.

Abstract
The aim and novelty of this paper are found in assessing the influence of inhibitors and antibiotics on intact cell MALDI-TOF mass spectra of the cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. UPOC S4 and to check the impact on reliability of identification. Defining the limits of this method is important for its use in biology and applied science. The compounds included inhibitors of respiration, glycolysis, citrate cycle, and proteosynthesis. They were used at 1–10 μM concentrations and different periods of up to 3 weeks. Cells were also grown without inhibitors in a microgravity because of expected strong effects. Mass spectra were evaluated using controls and interpreted in terms of differential peaks and their assignment to protein sequences by mass. Antibiotics, azide, and bromopyruvate had the greatest impact. The spectral patterns were markedly altered after a prolonged incubation at higher concentrations, which precluded identification in the database of reference spectra. The incubation in microgravity showed a similar effect. These differences were evident in dendrograms constructed from the spectral data. Enzyme inhibitors affected the spectra to a smaller extent. This study shows that only a long-term presence of antibiotics and strong metabolic inhibitors in the medium at 10−5 M concentrations hinders the correct identification of cyanobacteria by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF).

Abstract
A compound with promising anticancer properties, 3-bromopyruvate (3-BP) is a synthetic derivative of a pyruvate molecule; however, its toxicity in non-malignant cells has not yet been fully elucidated. Therefore, we elected to study the effects of 3-BP on primary hepatocytes in monolayer cultures, permeabilized hepatocytes and isolated mitochondria. After a 1-h treatment with 100 μM 3-BP cell viability of rat hepatocytes was decreased by 30 % as measured by the WST-1 test (p < 0.001); after 3-h exposure to ≥200 μM 3-BP lactate dehydrogenase leakage was increased (p < 0.001). Reactive oxygen species production was increased in the cell cultures after a 1-h treatment at concentrations ≥100 μmol/l (p < 0.01), and caspase 3 activity was increased after a 20-h incubation with 150 μM and 200 μM 3-BP (p < 0.001). This toxic effect of 3-BP was also proved using primary mouse hepatocytes. In isolated mitochondria, 3-BP induced a dose- and time-dependent decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential during a 10-min incubation both with Complex I substrates glutamate + malate or Complex II substrate succinate, although this decrease was more pronounced with the latter. We also measured the effect of 3-BP on respiration of isolated mitochondria. ADP-activated respiration was inhibited by 20 μM 3-BP within 10 min. Similar effects were also found in permeabilized hepatocytes of both species.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES 3-Bromopyruvate (3-BrPA), an hexokinase II inhibitor, is known to have high necrotic rate in hyperglycolytic liver tumor models without apparent damage to the normal liver parenchyma. The toxicity of intra-arterial delivery of 3-BrPA in various concentrations has not been specifically investigated using a normal rabbit model. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty rabbits treated with intra-arterial 3-BrPA were divided into four groups according to its dose and infusion level: 1 mM at the left hepatic artery (group I), 5 mM at the left hepatic artery (group II), 25 mM at the left hepatic artery (group III), and 25 mM at the common hepatic artery (group IV). After selective catheterization, 30 ml of 3-BrPA was infused for 2 minutes. As a control group, five rabbits were treated with normal saline. During 1-week follow-up, toxicities were evaluated with blood laboratory results, mortality, and histopathologic examination. RESULTS All 10 rabbits treated with 25 mM 3-BrPA and 2 rabbits treated with 5 mM 3-BrPA died within 3 days after treatment. In 10 of the 12 deaths, hemorrhagic pyloric or duodenal necrosis was noted. Hepatotoxicities on blood laboratory results were dose dependent but transient in the surviving rabbits. CONCLUSION Selective intra-arterial administration of 25 mM 3-BrPA can cause considerable toxicities not only in the liver but also in the gastrointestinal system and are dose dependent and can cause death in high doses.

Abstract
The accepted approach to the interpretation of local lymph node assay (LLNA) data requires comparison of responses in the test groups with background activity found in concurrent vehicle-treated controls. However, of established value in the interpretation of toxicity test data is the use of historical control values that provide one criterion against which to judge the integrity of individual experiments. Specifically, the availability of robust and relevant historical control data permits examination of whether, in any individual experiment, control values fall within the expected range. With the most commonly used vehicle employed in the LLNA, acetone/olive oil (4 : 1) (v/v), the mean values, standard deviations and normal ranges are increasingly well established for a given laboratory, although there is some variation between laboratories, particularly with regard to expected ranges. Against this background, it is possible to identify (and, if appropriate, eliminate) a concurrent vehicle-control value that falls well outside the expected range. To explore critically the potential merits of this approach, one specific example is examined in detail.

Abstract
Several studies have shown that pyruvate can scavenge H(2)O(2) and protect from H(2)O(2)-mediated cell injury. Mitochondria are critical participants in the control of apoptotic and necrotic cell death. Mitochondrial GSH plays an important role in the maintenance of cell functions and viability by metabolism of oxygen free radicals generated by the respiratory chain. Since loss of GSH, especially mitochondrial GSH, is associated with increased production of reactive oxygen species and cell toxicity, the ability of pyruvate to protect against these actions was evaluated. Adding pyruvate to HepG2 cells depleted of GSH by treatment with l-buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) surprisingly caused loss of viability after 24 and 48 h of incubation. Anoxia, treatment with antioxidants, and infection with cytosolic catalase, and interestingly, catalase expressed in the mitochondrial compartment were able to rescue the HepG2 cells from this pyruvate plus BSO injury, suggesting a key role for H(2)O(2), and lipid peroxides as mediators in the cytotoxicity. This toxicity and cell death observed was linked to damage to the mitochondria as evidenced by the increased lipid peroxidation in total homogenate and mitochondrial fraction, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, and a decrease in protein-sulfhydryl groups. The type of cell death observed under these conditions was a mixture of apoptosis and necrosis. These results suggest that the protective ability of pyruvate against oxidant damage requires a functional GSH pool, especially in the mitochondrial compartment, and that in the absence of GSH, pyruvate increases cell injury by damaging the mitochondria, presumably as a consequence of enhanced electron flow and reactive oxygen production by the respiratory chain.

Abstract
Among N-(halophenyl)succinimides. N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)succinimide (NDPS) is a potent nephrotoxicant as well as an agricultural fungicide. Although two chloride groups on the phenyl ring are essential to induce optimal nephrotoxicity, the role of halogen groups in NDPS nephrotoxicity is not clear. In this study, N-(3-bromophenyl)-2-hydroxysuccinimide (NBPHS) was prepared as a monohalophenyl derivative of N-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-2-hydroxysuccinimide (NDHS), an oxidative and nephrotoxicant metabolite of NDPS. The nephrotoxic potential of NBPHS was evaluated in vivo and in vitro to determine the role of halogen groups in N-(halophenyl)succinimide nephrotoxicity. Male Fischer 344 rats (four/group) were administered a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of NBPHS (0.1, 0.4 or 0.8 mmol/kg) or vehicle (25% dimethyl sulfoxide in sesame oil) and renal function monitored for 48 h. Administration of NBPHS (0.8 mmol/kg) induced nephrotoxicity, while very mild changes or no changes in renal function were observed following administration of 0.4 mmol/kg or 0.1 mmol/kg of NBPHS, respectively. Nephrotoxicity induced by NBPHS (0.8 mmol/kg) was characterized by diuresis, transiently increased proteinuria, glucosuria and hematuria elevated kidney weight and reduced tetraethylammonium (TEA) uptake by renal cortical slices, and was not as marked as nephrotoxicity induced by NDHS (0.1 mmol/kg) or NDPS (0.4 mmol/kg). In the in vitro studies the effects of NBPHS on organic ion accumulation, pyruvate-stimulated gluconeogenesis, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release were measured using renal cortical slices. NBPHS decreased p-aminohippurate (PAH) and TEA accumulation at NBPHS bath concentrations of 0.05 mM and 0.5 mM and 0.5 mM or greater, respectively. Renal gluconeogenesis was inhibited by NBPHS at 1 mM bath concentration, while LDH leakage was not increased at NBPHS bath concentrations up to 1 mM. The results demonstrate that NBPHS is a mild nephrotoxicant in vivo and in vitro, but does not have cytotoxic effects to renal tissues at the concentrations tested. From these results, it appears that halogen groups are essential to the nephrotoxic potential of N-(halophenyl)-2-hydroxysuccinimides or N-(halophenyl)succinimides and play an important role in the mechanism of NDPS nephrotoxicity following NDHS formation.

Abstract
(R,S)- and (R)-3-Bromopropan-1,2-diol (alpha-bromohydrin) produced diuresis and glucosuria when administered to male rats but had no effect on the metabolic activity of rat kidney tubules in vitro. The oxidation products (R,S)-3-bromolactate and 3-bromopyruvate produced brief phases of diuresis but not glucosuria, and severely inhibited the metabolic activity of rat kidney tubules in vitro. alpha-Bromohydrin had no effect on the metabolic activity of boar spermatozoa whereas the oxidation products severely affected mitochondrial metabolism. 3-Bromopyruvate also inhibited boar spermatozoal glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase.

Abstract
Three flavourings: dimethyl succinate, ethyl pyruvate and aconitic acid, commonly used in candy, beverages, and baked goods, were tested in the Salmonella/mammalian-microsome test. Tester strains were TA 1535, TA 100, TA 1537 and TA 98 and doses were 32, 160, 800, 4000 and 20 000 micrograms per plate. All tests were performed with and without the S9 fraction from Aroclor induced rat liver. None of the flavourings showed mutagenic potential. These results support the classification made by the Council of Europe, List I (1981).

Abstract
Etching of enamel surfaces produces a marked increase in the bond strength of dental materials to tooth structure. The results of recent studies have indicated that pyruvic acid may be used in preference to phosphoric acid, because of its milder etching effect on enamel surfaces, without adversely affecting the bond strength. The pulpal responses elicited by 10% pyruvic acid applied for 90 seconds to freshly prepared cavities in monkey teeth, were examined after 4, 14 and 42 days. The differences between some of the ariteria used to evaluate the pulpal responses in acid-treated and control teeth at the three post-operative time intervals were statistically significant. These results suggest that exposed dentin should be protected with a lining before etching adjacent enamel surfaces with 10% pyruvic acid.
