Intraneuronal superoxide generation may be a possible mechanism of the dopaminergic (DA) neurotoxicity of MPTP. In such case, MPTP might theoretically affect superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. We determined SOD activity and DA levels in striata of mice at 0.5, 1, 4, 16, 24 h or 7 days after an acute single injection of MPTP (40 mg/kg, s.c.). MPTP produced marked striatal DA depletions from 4 h post-treatment but SOD activity remained unaltered and similar to controls at all time points. Intrastriatal injections of purified SOD 15 min prior to systemic administration of MPTP did not attenuate the MPTP-induced striatal DA depletions in mice at 7 days post-treatment. Combined administration of MPTP with the SOD inhibitor diethyldithiocarbamate markedly enhanced striatal DA decreases produced by MPTP alone. Findings suggest that MPTP does not act via inhibition of SOD. Therefore, potentiation of MPTP toxicity by diethyldithiocarbamate may be due to interference with other enzymatic systems. 相似文献

Pulmonary Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase was examined in young (1-month-old), adult (4-5-month-old) and aged (24-months-old) rats to determine if partially inactive forms of the enzyme accumulate in the lung with age. Measurement of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase activity in lung homogenates showed that total Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase activity/mg DNA was essentially the same in adult and aged rats. The average value of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase/mg DNA for young rats was less than half that of adult and aged rats. Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase was purified from the lung homogenates and fractionated into isoelectric variants by either isoelectric focusing or chromatofocusing. Three main isoelectric variants of Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase were recovered with pI values of 5.15, 4.88 and 4.75. In all age groups studied, the pI 4.88 variant had a markedly higher specific activity than the other two variants, as well as the highest metal content and greatest resistance to inactivation of all three variants. The pI 4.88 variant declined from 88% of the total Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase activity in the young animals to only 70% in the aged animals. The results of this study indicate that the proportion of the relatively inactive forms of pulmonary Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase increased with age. 相似文献

Age-related cochlear hair cell loss is enhanced in mice lacking copper/zinc superoxide dismutase. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Age-related hearing loss in humans and many strains of mice is associated with a base-to-apex gradient of cochlear hair cell loss. To determine if copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn SOD) deficiency influences age-related cochlear pathology, we compared hair cell losses in cochleas obtained from 2-, 7-, and 17- to 19-month-old wild type (WT) mice with normal levels of Cu/Zn SOD and mutant knockout (KO) mice with a targeted deletion of Sod1, the gene that codes for Cu/Zn SOD. WT and KO mice exhibited similar patterns of hair cell loss with age, i.e., a baso-apical progression of hair cell loss, with greater loss of outer hair cells than inner hair cells. Within each age group, the magnitude of loss was much greater in KO mice compared to WT mice. The results indicate that Cu/Zn SOD deficiency potentiates cochlear hair cell degeneration, presumably through metabolic pathways involving the superoxide radical. 相似文献

The reactive oxygen species (ROS) superoxide is well known for its role in disease mechanisms. Mounting evidence indicates, however, that superoxide also is generated for useful purposes and contributes to normal physiologic function. Studies with transgenic mice that overexpress superoxide scavengers show that certain types of memory function and underlying neuronal processes are impaired under conditions of severely reduced superoxide signaling. These findings have implications for the use of antioxidant treatments as well as for our understanding of the signaling events involved in cognition. 相似文献

Infective and noninfective strains of Borrelia burgdorferi, along with Borrelia afzelii and Borrelia garinii, possessed a single iron-containing superoxide dismutase (SOD). None of the Lyme disease spirochetes tested possessed catalase or peroxidase activities. The borrelial SOD was not inducible by growth with increased oxygen concentrations and thus appeared to be produced constitutively. 相似文献

Streptococcus pneumoniae was shown to contain two types of superoxide dismutase, MnSOD and FeSOD. Levels of MnSOD increased during growth in an aerobic environment. The sodA gene, encoding MnSOD, of virulent S. pneumoniae type 2 strain D39 was inactivated to give mutant D39HY1. Aerobically, D39HY1 had a lower growth rate than the wild type and exhibited susceptibility to the redox-active compound paraquat, but anaerobic growth of D39HY1 was identical to that of the wild type. Virulence studies showed that the median survival time of mice infected intranasally with D39HY1 was significantly longer than that of mice infected with the wild-type pneumococcus. In contrast to the wild type, D39HY1 did not multiply in lungs during the first 24 h but thereafter grew at the same rate as the wild type. Appearance in the bloodstream was also delayed, but growth in the blood was unimpaired by the sodA mutation. The pattern of inflammation in lungs infected with D39HY1 differed from that in wild-type-infected mice. After infection with D39HY1, neutrophils were densely packed around bronchioles, in contrast to the wild-type infection, where neutrophils were more diffusely localized. 相似文献

Clinical and epidemiological studies have provided circumstantial evidence that oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and antioxidants are involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Superoxide dismutases (SODs) have been shown in vitro to protect LDL from deleterious effects of superoxide anions. In the present study, we have used adenoviral gene transfer to determine effect of extracellular SOD (EC-SOD) on atherogenesis in LDL receptor -/- mice. Intravenous administration of EC-SOD adenovirus (2 x 10(9) plaque forming units) into tail vein targeted transgene mainly to liver and induced a 3.5- to sevenfold increase in plasma total SOD activity. EC-SOD was secreted into circulation for 2-3 weeks mostly in a truncated B-form, suggesting that endogenous proteolytic mechanisms control the level and distribution of the enzyme. Therapeutic potential was determined by measuring plasma resistance against copper oxidation and analyzing atherosclerotic lesion areas in aortas of LDL receptor -/- mice. Mice were kept on a cholesterol diet for 10 weeks before gene transfer and 3 or 6 weeks after the gene transfer. Results showed a tendency for a reduction in the overall lesion area after EC-SOD gene transfer as compared with LacZ transduced control mice, but the difference did not reach statistical significance. It is concluded that short-term overexpression of EC-SOD in vivo does not affect atherogenesis in LDL receptor -/- mice. 相似文献

The superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities in normal and tumor breast tissues from 14 human females were determined by the epinephrine autoxidation assay. SOD levels showed a marked interindividual variability in normal and malignant cells. However, each donor had a higher SOD activity in cancer than in normal tissue samples. In three cases in which Mn- and CuZnSOD activities were determined, it was found that tumoral increases in SOD were due to increases in both enzymatic forms. Therefore, it seems reasonable to assume a similar situation for all cases in our series. The level of DNA methylation in the SOD-1 gene was assessed in the first four donors. The four cases exhibited full methylation of SOD-1 genes corresponding to normal as well as to cancer cells. It is concluded that the variability in CuZnSOD activities is not related with the state of methylation of the SOD-1 gene. MspI restriction fragment polymorphisms between DNA samples from normal and malignant cells were detected in the four DNA donors. This phenomenon may be due to point mutations changing the frequency of MspI sites or to methylation of the external C in CCGG sequences. 相似文献

Prenatal lead exposure had a damaging effect on Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase activity in the brain and liver of rat fetuses
(20 days of gestation). The decrease in Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase activity in the brain and liver of treated fetuses reflects
activation of free radical processes and impairment of the antioxidant defense system during prenatal lead exposure.

Extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) controls the availability of extracellular superoxide and appears to play a role in controlling oxidative stress and intercellular signaling. Whether EC-SOD overexpression would help or hinder neurobehavioral function appears to depend on the age of the individual. In young adult mice, we have found that EC-SOD overexpression can interfere with learning on the radial-arm maze, possibly by reducing control over nitric oxide neurotransmission. In aged mice, we found, in the current study, that EC-SOD overexpression greatly improves learning on the radial-arm maze. Control (N = 17) and EC-SOD overexpressing mice (N = 13) acquired the 8-arm radial maze over 21 sessions of training. The EC-SOD overexpressing mice had significantly better choice accuracy than the control mice (p < 0.005). The EC-SOD overexpressing mice averaged 6.34 ± 0.22 correct arm entries before an error (entries to repeat) during the acquisition phase, while the control mice averaged 5.18 ± 0.22 entries to repeat. EC-SOD genotype did not cause a main effect on response latency. The advantage held by the EC-SOD overexpressing mice persisted during the eight-session post-acquisition phase of testing (p < 0.01). When there was a shift from high to low levels of motivation by reducing the period of food restriction before testing, the EC-SOD overexpression-induced improvement was reduced slightly, but it was still significant compared with the wild-type controls (p < 0.025). Then, after 4 months of no testing, the mice were tested for retention and reacquisition of performance on the radial-arm maze. The EC-SOD overexpressing mice maintained their significantly better choice accuracy (p < 0.05). Enhancement of EC-SOD activity appears to improve learning and memory performance, specifically in aging mice. EC-SOD mimetic treatment during the course of aging may hold promise for aging-induced cognitive impairment. 相似文献

A quantitative method of determination of the activity of multiple forms of superoxide dismutase (SOD), based on separation of the forms of the enzyme of gel electrophoresis, elution from the gel, and determination of inhibition of the reduction of nitro-BT in a system of NADH and phenazine metasulfate, is described. Partially purified bovine erythrocyte SOD was shown to separate into three forms; the activity of form 2 is much lower than the degree of its staining for protein.Institute of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, Academy of Medical Sciences of the USSR, Siberian Branch, Novosibirsk (Presented by Academician of the Academy of Medical Sciences of the USSR V.

Intravenous injections of superoxide dismutase into rats with amygdaline kindling mitigated spontaneous and electrostimulation-induced
epileptic seizures and raised the thresholds of electric current for their elicitation; these seizures of reduced intensity
were observed during 3 days following chronic (for 6 days) treatment with this enzyme. In contrast, superoxide dismutase injections
had no effect on the convulsions induced by electric shock or corazole.

Sod2-/- mice, which are deficient in the mitochondrial form of superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), have a short survival time that is strongly affected by genetic background. This suggests the existence of genetic modifiers that are capable of modulating the degree of mitochondrial oxidative damage caused by the MnSOD deficiency, thereby altering longevity. To identify these modifier(s), we generated recombinant congenic mice with quantitative trait loci (QTL) containing the putative genetic modifiers on the short-lived C57BL/6J genetic background. MnSOD deficient C57BL/6J mice with a QTL from the distal region of chromosome 13 from DBA/2J were able to survive for as long as those generated on the long-lived DBA/2J background. Within this region, the gene encoding nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase (Nnt) was found to be defective in C57BL/6J mice, and no mature NNT protein could be detected. The forward reaction of NNT, a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial inner membrane protein, couples the generation of NADPH to proton transport and provides NADPH for the regeneration of two important antioxidant compounds, glutathione and thioredoxin, in the mitochondria. This action of NNT could explain its putative protective role in MnSOD-deficient mice. 相似文献
