Oxidatively stressed lymphocytes exhibit decreased proliferative response to mitogenic stimulation. Although several sensitive targets involved in lymphocyte suppression have already been identified, little is known about the influence of oxidative stress on cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDE) (EC 3.1.4.17), thought to play a major role in the control of cyclic AMP (cAMP) level, a well-recognized negative effector of lymphoproliferation. Although the polyunsaturated fatty acid content of membrane phospholipids is thought to be directly related to the extent of oxidant-induced lipid peroxidation, some n-3 fatty acids also seem to have antioxidant effects, depending on the concentration used and the overall redox status of the cells in question. Results of the present study showed that human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) as well as rat thymocytes were relatively resistant to a short-term exposure (10 min) to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Indeed, H2O2-induced lipid peroxidation, estimated by malondialdehyde (MDA) production, was only 2-fold increased by H2O2 concentrations lower than 2 mM, whereas a larger increase (10-fold) could be observed in PBMC at the highest dose (5 mM). Previous enrichment of PBMC with 5 microM docosahexaenoic acid (22:6n-3), brought to the cells as a fatty acid-albumin complex (ratio 1), significantly reduced MDA production induced by low doses of H2O2, the protective effect no longer being observed at the highest doses. In contrast, eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5n-3) did not have any protective effect. Cytosolic PDE activities of both human PBMC and rat thymocytes were significantly inhibited (40-50%) after H2O2 treatment of the cells, whereas particulate PDE activities were not modified. Different responses of PDE activities to H2O2 treatment were observed when PBMC were first enriched with 22:6n-3 prior to H2O2 addition. In 22:6n-3-treated cells, the H2O2-induced inhibition of both cAMP- and cGMP-PDE cytosolic activities was abolished, whereas the particulate activities were increased by the highest H2O2 concentration used (5 mM). At the same time, the glutathione peroxidase (glutathione: oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.9) (GSH-Px) activity of PBMC and thymocytes was only marginally inhibited by H2O2 addition (20%), and pretreatment of the cells with 22:6n-3 did not modify the slight inhibitory effect of H2O2. Collectively, these results suggest that lymphocytes are relatively resistant to H2O2-induced lipid peroxidation due to their high GSH-Px content, and that low doses of 22:6n-3 are able to prevent some of the H2O2-induced alterations such as lipid peroxidation and PDE inhibition. Docosahexaenoic acid might thus offer some protection against oxidant-induced lymphocyte suppression.  相似文献

Oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) triggers human lens epithelial cell (HLEC) apoptosis and initiates cataract formation. Oxyresveratrol (Oxy) was reported to possess antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities. Herein, we investigated the effects of Oxy on H2O2-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in HLECs and the associated mechanisms. Cell viability was detected by MTT assay. The oxidative damage was assessed by measuring the activities of superoxide dismutases-1 (SOD-1), catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GSH), and malondialdehyde (MDA). Apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry analysis. The changed expressions of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and protein kinase B (Akt) pathways were evaluated by qRT-PCR and western blot. We found that exposure to H2O2 dose-dependently reduced cell viability, and induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in HLECs, which were reversed by pretreatment with Oxy. Oxy increased p-Akt and HO-1 expressions in H2O2-stimulated HLECs. Akt and HO-1 expressions form a regulatory axis and Oxy activated the Akt/HO-1 pathway in H2O2-stimulated HLECs. Inhibition of the Akt/HO-1 pathway by LY294002 or ZnPP attenuated the effects of Oxy on oxidative stress and apoptosis in H2O2-stimulated HLECs. In conclusion, Oxy protected H2O2-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis through activating the Akt/HO-1 pathway, suggesting the protective effect of Oxy against H2O2-induced cataract.  相似文献

Context: Garden cress [Lepidium sativum (Brassicaceae)] has been widely used to treat a number of ailments in traditional medicine. The pharmacological and preventive potential of Lepidium sativum, such as anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, antihypertensive, anti-ashthamatic, anticancer, and anti-oxidant, are well known.

Objective: The present investigation was designed to study the protective effects of chloroform extract of Lepidium sativum seed (LSE) against oxidative stress and cytotoxicity induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in human liver cells (HepG2).

Materials and methods: Cytotoxicity of LSE and H2O2 was identified by (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT), neutral red uptake (NRU) assays, and morphological changes in HepG2. The cells were pre-exposed to biologically safe concentrations (5–25?μg/ml) of LSE for 24 h, and then cytotoxic (0.25 mM) concentration of H2O2 was added. After 24 h of the exposures, cell viability by MTT, NRU assays, and morphological changes in HepG2 were evaluated. Further, protective effects of LSE on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), lipid peroxidation (LPO), and reduced glutathione (GSH) levels induced by H2O2 were studied.

Results: Pre-exposure of LSE significantly attenuated the loss of cell viability up to 48% at 25?µg/ml concentration against H2O2 (LD50 value?=?2.5?mM). Results also showed that LSE at 25?µg/ml concentration significantly inhibited the induction of ROS generation (45%) and LPO (56%), and increases the MMP (55%) and GSH levels (46%).

Discussion and conclusion: The study suggests the cytoprotective effects of LSE against H2O2-induced toxicity in HepG2. The results also demonstrate the anti-oxidative nature of LSE.  相似文献

It has been shown that the mucolytic agent erdosteine (N-carboxymethylthio-acetyl-homocysteine thiolactone, CAS 84611-23-4) has anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties, and an active metabolite I (MET I) containing pharmacologically active sulphydryl group has been found to have a free radical scavenging activity. The aim of this study was to assess the ability of erdosteine metabolite I to protect A549 human lung adenocarcinoma cell against hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-mediated oxidative stress and oxidative DNA damage. When A549 cells were pre-treated with the active metabolite I (2.5-5-10 microg/ml) for 10-30 min and then exposed to H2O2 (1-4 mM) for two additional hours at 37 degrees C, 5% at CO2, the intracellular peroxide production, reflected by dichlorofluorescein (DCF) fluorescence, decreased in a concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, using a comet assay as an indicator for oxidative DNA damage, it was found that the metabolite I prevented damage to cells exposed to shortterm H2O2 treatment. The data suggest that this compound is effective in preventing H2O2-induced oxidative stress and DNA damage in A549 cells. The underlying mechanisms involve the scavenging of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS).  相似文献

There is an increasing evidence that oxidative stress is implicated in the processes of inflammation and carcinogenesis. It has been shown that kahweol and cafestol, coffee-specific diterpenes, exhibit chemoprotective effects. This study investigated the effects of kahweol and cafestol, coffee-specific diterpenes, on the hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2))-induced oxidative stress and DNA damage in NIH3T3 cells. When the cells were treated with kahweol or cafestol, cytotoxicity, lipid peroxidation, and reactive oxygen species production induced by H(2)O(2) were markedly reduced in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, kahweol and cafestol were shown to be highly protected against H(2)O(2)-induced oxidative DNA damage as determined by the Comet (single cell gel electrophoresis) assay and the measurement of 8-oxoguanine content in NIH3T3 cells. Kahweol and cafestol also protected hydroxyl radical-induced 2-deoxy-d-ribose degradation by ferric ion-nitrilotriacetic acid and H(2)O(2). In addition, kahweol and cafestol efficiently removed the superoxide anion generated from the xanthine/xanthine oxidase system. These results suggest that kahweol and cafestol are effective in protecting against H(2)O(2)-induced oxidative stress and DNA damage, probably via scavenging free oxygen radicals, and that kahweol and cafestol act as antioxidants.  相似文献

The respiratory system is a major site of exposure route during pesticide use. Although pesticide exposure is associated with chronic respiratory diseases including asthma, the underlying pathophysiological mechanism remains to be elucidated. In this study, we investigated the in vitro effects of benomyl-induced ORMDL3 overexpression on the toxicological mechanism using the human bronchial epithelial cell line 16HBE14o-. Benomyl increased reactive oxygen species and Ca2+ levels, and asthma-related ADAM33 and ORMDL3 expression in 16HBE14o− cells. Considering the change in Ca2+ level and protein expression, we focused on ORMDL3 to elucidate the mechanism of benomyl-induced asthma. Antioxidant treatment showed that benomyl-induced ORMDL3 and endoplasmic reticulum stress could be triggered by oxidative stress. Furthermore, ORMDL3 knockdown alleviated the effects of benomyl on intracellular Ca2+, and the expression of metalloproteinases, and proinflammatory cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of asthma. In conclusion, our results suggest that benomyl-induced ORMDL3 overexpression via oxidative stress might be a mechanism involved in asthma. Moreover, antioxidants and alleviating mechanisms that reduce ORMDL3 levels could serve as promising therapeutic targets for pesticide-induced asthma.  相似文献

In this study, we evaluated the cytoprotective effects of antioxidative substances in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) treated Mel-Ab melanocytes. Tested substances include selenium, quercetin, green tea (GT) extract, and several vitamins (ascorbic acid, Trolox, and folic acid). Of these, both quercetin and GT extract were found to have strong cytoprotective effects on H2O2-induced cell death. We also examined additive effects, but no combination of two of any of the above substances was found to act synergistically against oxidative damage in Mel-Ab cells. Nevertheless, a multi-combination of GT extract, quercetin, and folic acid appeared to prevent cellular damage in a synergistic manner, which suggests that combinations of antioxidants may be of importance, and that co-treatment with antioxidants offers a possible means of treating vitiligo, which is known to be related to melanocyte oxidative stress.  相似文献

Oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in lens epithelial cells plays an important role in cataract formation, and its prevention may be of therapeutic interest. This study was performed to investigate the protective effect and mechanisms of honokiol on H2O2-induced apoptosis in human lens epithelial (HLE) cells. HLE cells (SRA01-04) were pretreated with honokiol at concentrations of 5 μM, 10 μM and 20 μM before 50 μM H2O2 treatment. The results demonstrated that pretreatment of honokiol inhibited the activation of caspase-3 and caspase-9 and downregulated the expression of Bcl-2. Mechanistically, honokiol suppressed H2O2-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), JNK and Akt. Honokiol also inhibited H2O2-induced nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB)/p65 phosphorylation and translocation in HLE cells. These results demonstrate that honokiol suppresses H2O2-induced HLE cell apoptosis via interference with the MAPKs, Akt and NF-κB signaling, suggesting that honokiol might have a potential effect against cataract formation.  相似文献

Oxidative stress regulates cellular functions in multiple pathological conditions, including bone formation by osteoblasic cells. To elucidate the protective effects of dehydrocostus lactone on the response of osteoblast to oxidative stress, osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells were incubated with 0.3 mM hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and/or dehydrocostus lactone (0.1–10 μg/ml), and markers of osteoblast function and oxidative damage were examined. Dehydrocostus lactone (0.1–10 μg/ml) significantly increased osteoblast growth compared with control (P < 0.05). H2O2-induced reduction of differentiation markers such as alkaline phosphatase (ALP), collagen content, and calcium deposition was recovered in the presence of dehydrocostus lactone (0.4–2 μg/ml). Treatment with dehydrocostus lactone (10 μg/ml) decreased the production of osteoclast differentiation-inducing factors such as interleukin (IL)-6 and receptor activator of nuclear factor-kB ligand (RANKL) in the presence of H2O2. Moreover, dehydrocostus lactone (0.4–2 μg/ml) decreased the formation of protein carbonyl (PCO) and malondialdehyde (MDA) induced by H2O2 in osteoblasts. Taken together, these results demonstrate that dehydrocostus lactone can protect osteoblasts against H2O2-induced cellular dysfunction. These results also suggest that dehydrocostus lactone may be valuable as a protective agent against oxidative damage in osteoblasts.  相似文献

Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathological process of neurodegenerative diseases. The effects of four major flavonoids present in Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi on hydrogen peroxide-induced neuronal cell damage are studied in this paper. When human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells were incubated in Hanks' solution with the addition of 400 microM hydrogen peroxide for 2 h, the viability of cells was decreased remarkably, while the cell lipid peroxidation and the percentage of lactose dehydrogenase released into the culture medium was significantly increased. Addition of 10 microM of baicalein and baicalin significantly attenuated the cellular injury induced by hydrogen peroxide, while the effect of wogonin was marginal and wogonoside showed no effect at the tested concentration. In a separate experiment, 10 microM of baicalein and baicalin also antagonized the intracellular free-calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) increase caused by 1 mM hydrogen peroxide. The effects of baicalein in both experiments were similar to those of quercetin, a well-studied antioxidant flavonoid. These results demonstrated the protective effects of flavonoids originating from Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi on the oxidative injury of neuronal cells.  相似文献

Cadmium is reported to accumulate in human eye tissues suggesting its implication in diverse ocular pathology. Using an in vitro cell culture model we investigated the effects of cadmium on human lens epithelial cells (HLECs) (HLE-B3). We observed cadmium-induced dose- as well as time-dependent decline in HLECs viability which was exacerbated significantly upon reduction of intracellular glutathione levels by buthionine sulfoximine (BSO). There was a dose-dependent significant increase in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release from HLECs suggesting cadmium-induced alteration of membrane integrity as well as necrotic cell death. The decline in cell viability was also due to apoptosis of the HLECs as determined by quantifying % apoptotic cells as well as PARP cleavage. Moreover, release of apoptosis inducing factor (AIF) into the cytosol was also detected. Cadmium was also observed to increase oxidative stress, lipid peroxidation and activation of MAPK pathway in HLECs. Antioxidants like N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and α-Tocopherol significantly prevented cadmium-induced toxicity in HLECs. Our findings suggest that cadmium-induced elevated oxidative stress as well as activation of MAPK signaling cascade eventually led to cell death of HLECs through apoptosis as well as necrosis. The loss of HLECs by cadmium could possibly explain its implication in cataract development particularly associated with smoking.  相似文献

Exposure to higher levels of air pollution particulate matter (PM) with an aerodynamic diameter of less than 2.5 μm (PM2.5) links with an increased risk of cardiovascular and respiratory deaths and hospital admission as well as lung cancer. Although the mechanism underlying the correlation between PM2.5 exposure and adverse effects has not fully elucidated, PM2.5-induced oxidative stress has been considered as an important molecular mechanism of PM2.5-mediated toxicity. In this work, human lung epithelial A549 cells were used to further investigate the biological effects of PM2.5 on autophagy. The cell viability showed both time- and concentration-dependent decrease when exposure to PM2.5, which can be attributed to increase of the levels of extracellular lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in A549 cells. Moreover, PM2.5-induced oxidative damage in A549 cells was observed through the alteration of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities compared to the unexposed control cells. PM2.5-induced autophagy was indicated by an increase in microtubule-associated protein light chain-3 (LC3) puncta, and accumulation of LC3 in both time- and concentration-dependent manner. PM2.5-induced mRNA expression of autophagy-related protein Atg5 and Beclin1 was also observed compared with those of the unexposed control cells. These results suggest the possibility that PM2.5-induced oxidative stress probably plays a key role in autophagy in A549 cells, which may contribute to PM2.5-induced impairment of pulmonary function.  相似文献
