硫氧还蛋白还原酶的生理学功能研究进展   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
周润梅 《现代医药卫生》2012,28(16):2487-2488
硫氧还蛋白还原酶(thioredoxin reductase,TrxR)是二聚体黄素酶,属于吡啶核苷酸二硫化物还原酶家族的一员,广泛表达于从原核生物到人类的各级有机体细胞中[1],因分布区域不同,三种同工酶分别命名为硫氧还蛋白R1(TrxR1)(细胞质型)、TrxR2(线粒体型)和一个主要在睾丸中表达的同工酶TrxR3(又名TGR)[2].TrxR2具有额外的N末端单侧的谷氧还蛋白区域,它是催化氧化型谷胱甘肽(GSH)还原的结构基础,因此TrxR3又被命名为硫氧还蛋白和谷胱甘肽还原酶.胞质型TrxR1发现最早,分布也较广泛,是目前研究得最多的一种同工酶.TrxR以Trx为底物和还原型烟酰胺嘌呤二核苷酸磷酸(NADPH)提供还原反应的还原当量,它们共同构成的氧化还原调控系统,叫做硫氧还蛋白系统.硫氧还蛋白系统在生物体内发挥着广泛的重要生理功能.现对硫氧还蛋白还原酶的生理学功能作一综述.  相似文献

已有研究证明硫氧还蛋白还原酶在多种人原发肿瘤中过度表达,其活性在肿瘤人群和健康人群中有明显差异。本义研究了健康人群和乳腺癌患者中TrxR活性的不同,并探讨了硫氧还蛋白还原酶作为乳腺癌治疗中的一个新型治疗靶点的可能性。通过研究.我们第一次发现未经治疗的肿瘤患者的TrxR活性值水平明显高于健康人群。存乳腺癌患者中,TrxR活性值在不同的年龄组和癌症分期组没有明显的差异。当TrxR活性值小于10U/mL时,TrxR活性值和肿瘤影像学评价结果有很高的一致性。这些发现证明硫氧还蛋白还原酶可以作为一个有效的新型生物标志物用于对乳腺痛临床治疗效果的监测和评价,并能成为乳腺癌早期检测的一种方法。  相似文献

Exposure to methylmercury (MeHg), an important environmental toxicant, may lead to serious health risks, damaging various organs and predominantly affecting the brain function. The toxicity of MeHg can be related to the inhibition of important selenoenzymes, such as glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and thioredoxin reductase (TrxR). Experimental studies have shown that selenocompounds play an important role as cellular detoxifiers and protective agents against the harmful effects of mercury. The present study investigated the mechanisms by which diphenyl diselenide [(PhSe)2] and ebselen interfered with the interaction of mercury (MeHg) and selenoenzymes (TrxR and GPx) in an in vitro experimental model of cultured human neuroblastoma cells (SH‐SY5Y). Our results established that (PhSe)2 and ebselen increased the activity and expression of TrxR. In contrast, MeHg inhibited TrxR activity even at low doses (0.5 μm ). Coexposure to selenocompounds and MeHg showed a protective effect of (PhSe)2 on both the activity and expression of TrxR. When selenoenzyme GPx was evaluated, selenocompounds did not alter its activity or expression significantly, whereas MeHg inhibited the activity of GPx (from 1 μm ). Among the selenocompounds only (PhSe)2 significantly protected against the effects of MeHg on GPx activity. Taken together, these results indicate a potential use for ebselen and (PhSe)2 against MeHg toxicity. Furthermore, for the first time, we have demonstrated that (PhSe)2 caused a more pronounced upregulation of TrxR than ebselen in neuroblastoma cells, likely reflecting an important molecular mechanism involved in the antioxidant properties of this compound.

The human U-1285 and GLC(4) cell lines, both derived from small cell carcinoma of the lung, are present in doxorubicin-sensitive (U-1285 and GLC(4)) and doxorubicin-resistant MRP-expressing (U-1285dox and GLC(4)/ADR) variants. These sublines were examined here with respect to their susceptibilities to the toxic effects of selenite and compared to the toxic effects of selenite on the promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60 and its doxorubicin-resistant P-glycoprotein expressing variant. The drug-resistant U-1285dox and GLC(4)/ADR sublines proved to be 3- and 4-fold, respectively, more sensitive to the cytotoxicity of selenite than the drug-sensitive U-1285 and GLC(4) sublines, whereas no difference was observed between the HL-60 sublines. The presence of doxorubicin at a concentration equal to the IC(10) did not significantly potentiate the toxic effects of selenite. The presence of selenite did not significantly affect the expression of the multi-drug resistant proteins (MRP1, LRP and topoisomerase IIalpha) in the drug-resistant cells. The activities of thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) were higher (50 and 25%, respectively) in the drug resistant cell sublines U-1285dox and GLC(4)/ADR compared to the drug-sensitive parental lines. The activity of glutathione reductase (GR) was essentially the same in the drug-sensitive and -resistant cell lines. Exposure to selenite resulted in a 4-fold increase in both TrxR and GR activities in U-1285 cells, an effect, which was less pronounced in the presence of doxorubicin. Under similar conditions the increase in the TrxR activity in the resistant U-1285dox cell line, was only 30% and the activity of GR was unaltered. Different responses in the activity of the key enzymes in selenium metabolism are one possible mechanism explaining the differential cytotoxicity of selenium in these cells.  相似文献

The present studies were to test the hypotheses that glutathione reductase (GR), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activities are expressed in nuclei and nucleoli of rat liver cells, and that differences in activities of these enzymes would correlate with the greater resistance of female than of male Fischer-344 rats to hepatic necrosis in vivo, mediated by reactive oxygen species generated by redox-cycling metabolism of diquat. Adult male and female Fischer-344 rats were treated with comparably hepatotoxic doses of diquat (0.1 or 0.2 mmol/kg, respectively), or equal volumes of saline, ip. Six hours later, the livers were harvested, and purified nuclei and nucleoli were isolated by differential centrifugation. Nuclear GR activities in male and female rats were 12 and 15 mU/mg protein, and nucleolar activities were 30 and 51 mU/mg protein, respectively, p < 0.05. Some differences between male and female rats in nuclear and nucleolar activities of GPXs and GSTs were observed, as were some differences in the respective diquat-treated animals, but implications of these differences for susceptibility to diquat-induced oxidant stress effects are not apparent. Nuclear GR, GPX, and GST probably contribute to antioxidant defense mechanisms, but the functions served by localization of GR and GPX in nucleoli are less evident.  相似文献

Chronic exposure of humans to inorganic arsenic, mainly pentavalent arsenate (iAsV), results in drinking water-induced oxidative stress (Pi et al., 2002). Thioredoxin reductase (TR) and glutathione reductase (GR) are the two critical enzymes in the response to oxidative stress in vivo. In the present study we examined alterations in enzyme activities of hepatic TR and GR from prolonged exposure of male New Zealand white rabbits to iAsV. Exposure of rabbits to iAsV in drinking water (5 mg/L) for 18 weeks caused a significant suppression of hepatic TR and GR activities, of approximately 30% and 20%, respectively, below controls. In vitro experiments suggested that trivalent inorganic arsenic (iAsIII) but not pentavalent arsenicals including iAsV, monomethylarsonic acid (MMAsV), and dimethylarsinic acid (DMAsV) affected the hepatic TR activity of rabbit. So it was suggested that in the present study iAsV ingested via drinking water was metabolized to reactive trivalent arsenicals, such as iAsIII, which may play an important role in the decreased TR and GR activities from prolonged exposure to iAsV observed in vivo.  相似文献

The selenoprotein thioredoxin reductase is a key enzyme in selenium metabolism, reducing selenium compounds and thereby providing selenide to synthesis of all selenoproteins. We evaluated the importance of active TrxR1 in selenium-induced cytotoxicity using transfected TrxR1 over-expressing stable Human Embryo Kidney (HEK-293) cells and modulation of activity by pretreatment with low concentration of selenite. Treatment with sodium selenite induced cytotoxity in a dose-dependent manner in both TrxR1 over-expressing and control cells. However, TrxR1 over-expressing cells, which were preincubated for 72h with 0.1 microM selenite, were significantly more resistant to selenite cytotoxicity than control cells. To demonstrate the early effects of selenite on behaviour of HEK-293 cells, we also investigated the influence of this compound on cell motility. We observed inhibition of cell motility by 50 microM selenite immediately after administration. Moreover, TrxR1 over-expressing cells preincubated with a low concentration of selenite were more resistant to the inhibitory effect of 50 microM selenite than those not preincubated. It was also observed that the TrxR over-expressing cells showed higher TrxR1 activity than control cells and the preincubation of over-expressing cells with 0.1 microM selenite induced further significant increase in the activity of TrxR1. On the other hand, we demonstrated that TrxR1 over-expressing cells showed decreased glutathione peroxidase activity compared to control cells. These data strongly suggest that TrxR1 may be a crucial enzyme responsible for cell resistance against selenium cytotoxicity.  相似文献

Oxidative damage associated with lead in the brain has been proposed as a possible mechanism of lead toxicity. Of the many antioxidant enzymes, phospholipid hydroperoxidase glutathione peroxidase (PHGPx) is known to protect cells from lipid peroxide-mediated damage by catalyzing lipid peroxide reduction. In this study, the effects of lead on the activity and expression of PHGPx mRNA were investigated in the brains of rats exposed to lead for 8 weeks. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (3 week old, n = 40) were randomly divided into four groups of 10 and treated with four different concentrations of lead in drinking water: a low dose (0.1% lead acetate), a medium dose (0.3% lead acetate), and a high dose (1.0% lead acetate), and a control group (0% lead acetate). We compared the four groups in terms of body and brain weight, lead concentrations in the brain and blood, and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), gluthatione peroxidase (GPx), and PHGPx mRNA in the brain. Phospholipid hydroperoxidase glutathione peroxidase was found to have a dominant role in lead exposure. We also performed in situ hybridization of PHGPx mRNA in the brain to identity PHGPx mRNA active sites. We found that the level of PHGPx mRNA in brain increased in the medium- and low-dose groups, but decreased in the high-dose group versus the non-lead-treated control group. These results suggest that lead exposure increases the expression of PHGPx mRNA in the low- and medium-dose groups without inducing structural changes, and that the reduced expression of PHGPx mRNA in the high-dose group was associated with structural damage. An In situ hybridization study showed that PHGPx mRNA in the brain is expressed mainly in the white matter of the cerebral hemisphere and in the Purkinje cells of the cerebellar hemispheres; these sites are known to be the vulnerable to lead toxicity.  相似文献

1. Oxidative damage has been suggested to be a contributory factor in the development and complications of diabetes. Recently, alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) has gained considerable interest as an anti-oxidant. Various studies have indicated the anti- oxidant effects of ALA and its reduced form dihydrolipoic acid. Therefore, it appears that these compounds have important therapeutic potential in conditions where oxidative stress is involved. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of ALA supplementation on lipid peroxidation and anti-oxidant enzyme activities in various tissues in diabetic rats. 2. Male Wistar rats were divided into three groups. Diabetes was induced by streptozotocin (STZ) injection in the two groups of rats to be supplemented and not to be supplemented with ALA. Another group of rats, which received saline injection, formed the control group. After 5 weeks of diabetes, rats were killed. In order to assess the redox status of various organs in the diabetic and control rats, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) and glutathione (GSH) levels, as well as superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (G-Px) and glutathione reductase (G-Red) activities were determined in the liver, pancreas and kidney. 3. In both diabetic groups, TBARS levels and SOD activity were increased in the liver and pancreas, G-Px and G-Red activities were increased in the kidney and GSH levels were decreased in all organs compared with controls. In the ALA- supplemented group, TBARS levels were decreased, GSH levels were increased in the liver and pancreas, SOD activity was decreased in the liver, G-Px activity remained unchanged in all tissues and G-Red activity was increased in the pancreas compared with the diabetic group that did not receive ALA supplementation. 4. In conclusion, ALA supplementation has disparate effects on the redox status of different organs. These data are not sufficient for confirmation the beneficial effects of ALA supplementation on the redox status of various organs in diabetic rats.  相似文献
