The Role of Oxidative Stress in Cardiac Disease: From Physiological Response to Injury Factor.

ABSTRACT: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are highly reactive chemical species containing oxygen, controlled by both enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidant defense systems. In the heart, ROS play an important role in cell homeostasis, by modulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and excitation-contraction coupling. Oxidative stress occurs when ROS production exceeds the buffering capacity of the antioxidant defense systems, leading to cellular and molecular abnormalities, ultimately resulting in cardiac dysfunction. In this review, we will discuss the physiological sources of ROS in the heart, the mechanisms of oxidative stress-related myocardial injury, and the implications of experimental studies and clinical trials with antioxidant therapies in cardiovascular diseases.

Role of heat shock transcription factor in Saccharomyces cerevisiae oxidative stress response.

Project description:The heat shock transcription factor Hsf1 of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae regulates the transcription of a set of genes that contain heat shock elements (HSEs) in their promoters and function in diverse cellular processes, including protein folding. Here, we show that Hsf1 activates the transcription of various target genes when cells are treated with oxidizing reagents, including the superoxide anion generators menadione and KO(2) and the thiol oxidants diamide and 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB). Similar to heat shock, the oxidizing reagents are potent inducers of both efficient HSE binding and extensive phosphorylation of Hsf1. The inducible phosphorylation of Hsf1 is regulated by the intramolecular domain-domain interactions and affects HSE structure-specific transcription. Unlike the heat shock, diamide, or CDNB response, menadione or KO(2) activation of Hsf1 is inhibited by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) activity, which negatively regulates the activator functions of other transcriptional regulators implicated in the oxidative stress response. These results demonstrate that Hsf1 is a member of the oxidative stress-responsive activators and that PKA is a general negative regulator in the superoxide anion response.

Role of Glyoxylate Shunt in Oxidative Stress Response.

Project description:The glyoxylate shunt (GS) is a two-step metabolic pathway (isocitrate lyase, aceA; and malate synthase, glcB) that serves as an alternative to the tricarboxylic acid cycle. The GS bypasses the carbon dioxide-producing steps of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and is essential for acetate and fatty acid metabolism in bacteria. GS can be up-regulated under conditions of oxidative stress, antibiotic stress, and host infection, which implies that it plays important but poorly explored roles in stress defense and pathogenesis. In many bacterial species, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, aceA and glcB are not in an operon, unlike in Escherichia coli In P. aeruginosa, we explored relationships between GS genes and growth, transcription profiles, and biofilm formation. Contrary to our expectations, deletion of aceA in P. aeruginosa improved cell growth under conditions of oxidative and antibiotic stress. Transcriptome data suggested that aceA mutants underwent a metabolic shift toward aerobic denitrification; this was supported by additional evidence, including up-regulation of denitrification-related genes, decreased oxygen consumption without lowering ATP yield, increased production of denitrification intermediates (NO and N2O), and increased cyanide resistance. The aceA mutants also produced a thicker exopolysaccharide layer; that is, a phenotype consistent with aerobic denitrification. A bioinformatic survey across known bacterial genomes showed that only microorganisms capable of aerobic metabolism possess the glyoxylate shunt. This trend is consistent with the hypothesis that the GS plays a previously unrecognized role in allowing bacteria to tolerate oxidative stress.

Role of oxidative stress in Alzheimer's disease.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of disability in individuals aged >65 years worldwide. AD is characterized by the abnormal deposition of amyloid ? (A?) peptide, and intracellular accumulation of neurofibrillary tangles of hyperphosphorylated ? protein and dementia. The neurotoxic oligomer A? peptide, which is the neuropathological diagnostic criterion of the disease, together with ? protein, are mediators of the neurodegeneration that is among the main causative factors. However, these phenomena are mainly initiated and enhanced by oxidative stress, a process referring to an imbalance between antioxidants and oxidants in favour of oxidants. This imbalance can occur as a result of increased free radicals or a decrease in antioxidant defense, free radicals being a species that contains one or more unpaired electrons in its outer shell. The major source of potent free radicals is the reduction of molecular oxygen in water, that initially yields the superoxide radical, which produces hydrogen peroxide by the addition of an electron. The reduction of hydrogen peroxide produces highly reactive hydroxyl radicals, termed reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can react with lipids, proteins, nucleic acids, and other molecules and may also alter their structures and functions. Thus, tissues and organs, particularly the brain, a vulnerable organ, are affected by ROS due to its composition. The brain is largely composed of easily oxidizable lipids while featuring a high oxygen consumption rate. The current review examined the role of oxidative stress in AD.

The role of SUMO-1 in cardiac oxidative stress and hypertrophy.

Project description:AimsSmall ubiquitin-like modifier type 1 (SUMO-1) has been shown to play a critical role in the dysfunction of the cardiac isoform of sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA2a) pump in the setting of heart failure. In cardiac hypertrophy, the role of SUMO-1 has not been defined and our study's goals were to examine the effects of modulating SUMO-1 on the hypertrophic response both in vitro and in vivo and to examine whether oxidative stress (during cardiac hypertrophy) is abrogated by SUMO-1 gene transfer.ResultsIn mice undergoing transverse aortic constriction (TAC), SUMO-1 levels increased slightly during the compensated stage of hypertrophy and then dropped sharply during the transition to heart failure. In isolated cardiomyocytes, SUMO-1 gene transfer inhibited the hypertrophic response in the presence of phenylephrine. Adeno-associated vector type 9 (AAV9) gene transfer of SUMO-1 prevented the heart from undergoing hypertrophy after TAC and prevented the development of left ventricular dysfunction. Furthermore, SUMO-1 gene transfer blocked the negative effects of H2O2 on SERCA2a activity in cardiac myocytes, while in vivo indices of oxidative stress were decreased by SUMO-1 in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure.Innovation and conclusionThe results of this study indicate that post-translational modifications of SERCA2a caused by the toxic environment of the hypertrophied and failing myocardium can be prevented by SUMO-1.

The Role of Oxidative Stress in Parkinson's Disease.

Project description:Parkinson's disease (PD) is caused by progressive neurodegeneration of dopaminergic (DAergic) neurons with abnormal accumulation of ?-synuclein in substantia nigra (SN). Studies have suggested the potential involvement of dopamine, iron, calcium, mitochondria and neuroinflammation in contributing to overwhelmed oxidative stress and neurodegeneration in PD. Function studies on PD-causative mutations of SNCA, PRKN, PINK1, DJ-1, LRRK2, FBXO7 and ATP13A2 further indicate the role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of PD. Therefore, it is reasonable that molecules involved in oxidative stress, such as DJ-1, coenzyme Q10, uric acid, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosin, homocysteine, retinoic acid/carotenes, vitamin E, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, xanthine oxidase and products of lipid peroxidation, could be candidate biomarkers for PD. Applications of antioxidants to modulate oxidative stress could be a strategy in treating PD. Although a number of antioxidants, such as creatine, vitamin E, coenzyme Q10, pioglitazone, melatonin and desferrioxamine, have been tested in clinical trials, none of them have demonstrated conclusive evidence to ameliorate the neurodegeneration in PD patients. Difficulties in clinical studies may be caused by the long-standing progression of neurodegeneration, lack of biomarkers for premotor stage of PD and inadequate drug delivery across blood-brain barrier. Solutions for these challenges will be warranted for future studies with novel antioxidative treatment in PD patients.

Diabetes and Kidney Disease: Role of Oxidative Stress.

Project description:Intrarenal oxidative stress plays a critical role in the initiation and progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Enhanced oxidative stress results from overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the context of concomitant, insufficient antioxidant pathways. Renal ROS production in diabetes is predominantly mediated by various NADPH oxidases (NOXs), but a defective antioxidant system as well as mitochondrial dysfunction may also contribute. Recent Advances: Effective agents targeting the source of ROS generation hold the promise to rescue the kidney from oxidative damage and prevent subsequent progression of DKD. Critical Issues and Future Directions: In the present review, we summarize and critically analyze molecular and cellular mechanisms that have been demonstrated to be involved in NOX-induced renal injury in diabetes, with particular focus on the role of increased glomerular injury, the development of albuminuria, and tubulointerstitial fibrosis, as well as mitochondrial dysfunction. Furthermore, novel agents targeting NOX isoforms are discussed. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 25, 657-684.

Methionine oxidation activates a transcription factor in response to oxidative stress.

Project description:Oxidant-mediated antibacterial response systems are broadly used to control bacterial proliferation. Hypochlorite (HOCl) is an important component of the innate immune system produced in neutrophils and specific epithelia. Its antimicrobial activity is due to damaging cellular macromolecules. Little is known about how bacteria escape HOCl-inflicted damage. Recently, the transcription factor YjiE was identified that specifically protects Escherichia coli from HOCl killing. According to its function, YjiE is now renamed HypT (hypochlorite-responsive transcription factor). Here we unravel that HypT is activated by methionine oxidation to methionine sulfoxide. Interestingly, so far only inactivation of cellular proteins by methionine oxidation has been reported. Mutational analysis revealed three methionines that are essential to confer HOCl resistance. Their simultaneous substitution by glutamine, mimicking the methionine sulfoxide state, increased the viability of E. coli cells upon HOCl stress. Triple glutamine substitution generates a constitutively active HypT that regulates target genes independently of HOCl stress and permanently down-regulates intracellular iron levels. Inactivation of HypT depends on the methionine sulfoxide reductases A/B. Thus, microbial protection mechanisms have evolved along the evolution of antimicrobial control systems, allowing bacteria to survive within the host environment.

Project description:In filamentous fungi, several lines of experimental evidence indicate that secondary metabolism is triggered by oxidative stress; however, the functional and molecular mechanisms that mediate this association are unclear. The basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor AtfB, a member of the bZIP/CREB family, helps regulate conidial tolerance to oxidative stress. In this work, we investigated the role of AtfB in the connection between oxidative stress response and secondary metabolism in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus parasiticus. This well characterized model organism synthesizes the secondary metabolite and carcinogen aflatoxin. Chromatin immunoprecipitation with specific anti-AtfB demonstrated AtfB binding at promoters of seven genes in the aflatoxin gene cluster that carry CREs. Promoters lacking CREs did not show AtfB binding. The binding of AtfB to the promoters occurred under aflatoxin-inducing but not under aflatoxin-noninducing conditions and correlated with activation of transcription of the aflatoxin genes. Deletion of veA, a global regulator of secondary metabolism and development, nearly eliminated this binding. Electrophoretic mobility shift analysis demonstrated that AtfB binds to the nor-1 (an early aflatoxin gene) promoter at a composite regulatory element that consists of highly similar, adjacent CRE1 and AP-1-like binding sites. The five nucleotides immediately upstream from CRE1, AGCC(G/C), are highly conserved in five aflatoxin promoters that demonstrate AtfB binding. We propose that AtfB is a key player in the regulatory circuit that integrates secondary metabolism and cellular response to oxidative stress.
