Abstract
The ribosome is a complex ribonucleoprotein-based molecular machine that orchestrates protein synthesis in the cell. Both ribosomal RNA and ribosomal proteins can be chemically modified by reactive oxygen species, which may alter the ribosome′s functions or cause a complete loss of functionality. The oxidative damage that ribosomes accumulate during their lifespan in a cell may lead to reduced or faulty translation and contribute to various pathologies. However, remarkably little is known about the biological consequences of oxidative damage to the ribosome. Here, we provide a concise summary of the known types of changes induced by reactive oxygen species in rRNA and ribosomal proteins and discuss the existing experimental evidence of how these modifications may affect ribosome dynamics and function. We emphasize the special role that redox-active transition metals, such as iron, play in ribosome homeostasis and stability. We also discuss the hypothesis that redox-mediated ribosome modifications may contribute to adaptive cellular responses to stress.

Abstract
Plants encounter a variety of adverse environmental conditions, such as high salinity, drought, extreme heat/cold and heavy metals contamination (abiotic stress) or attack of various pathogens (biotic stress). These detrimental environmental factors enhanced the ROS production such as singlet oxygen (1O2), superoxide (O2 •-), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and hydroxyl radicals (OH•). ROS are highly reactive and directly target several cellular molecules and metabolites, which lead to severe cellular dysfunction. Plants respond to oxidative damages by activating antioxidant machinery to trigger signalling cascades for stress tolerance. H2O2 signalling balances the plant metabolism through cross-talk with other signals and plant hormones during growth, development and stress responses. H2O2 facilitates the regulation of different stress-responsive transcription factors (TFs) including NAC, Zinc finger, WRKY, ERF, MYB, DREB and bZIP as both upstream and downstream events during stress signalling. The present review focuses on the biological synthesis of the H2O2 and its effect on the upregulation of kinase genes and stress related TFs for imparting stress tolerance.

Abstract
The βγ-crystallin superfamily contains both β- and γ-crystallins of the vertebrate eye lens and the microbial calcium-binding proteins, all of which are characterized by a common double-Greek key domain structure. The vertebrate βγ-crystallins are long-lived structural proteins that refract light onto the retina. In contrast, the microbial βγ-crystallins bind calcium ions. The βγ-crystallin from the tunicate Ciona intestinalis (Ci-βγ) provides a potential link between these two functions. It binds calcium with high affinity and is found in a light-sensitive sensory organ that is highly enriched in metal ions. Thus, Ci-βγ is valuable for investigating the evolution of the βγ-crystallin fold away from calcium binding and toward stability in the apo form as part of the vertebrate lens. Here, we investigate the effect of Ca2+ and other divalent cations on the stability and aggregation propensity of Ci-βγ and human γS-crystallin (HγS). Beyond Ca2+, Ci-βγ is capable of coordinating Mg2+, Sr2+, Co2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+, although only Sr2+ is bound with comparable affinity to its preferred metal ion. The extent to which the tested divalent cations stabilize Ci-βγ structure correlates strongly with ionic radius. In contrast, none of the tested divalent cations improved the stability of HγS, and some of them induced aggregation. Zn2+, Ni2+, and Co2+ induce aggregation by interacting with cysteine residues, whereas Cu2+-mediated aggregation proceeds via a different binding site.

Abstract
Glutenin is the main protein of flour and is a very important source of protein nutrition for humans. Methylglyoxal (MGO) is an important product of the Maillard reaction that occurs during the hot-processing of flour products, and it reacts with glutenin to facilitate changes in glutenin properties. Here, the effects of MGO on glutenin digestion during the heating process were investigated using a simulated MGO-glutenin system. MGO significantly reduced the digestibility of glutenin. The structure of MGO-glutenin and physicochemical properties were studied to understand the mechanism of the decrease of digestibility. These data suggest that changes in digestibility were caused by decreases in surface hydrophobicity and increases in disulfide bonds. MGO induces strong aggregation of glutenin after heating that led to the masking of cleavage sites for proteases. Moreover, carbonyl oxidation induced by MGO leads to intermolecular cross-linking of glutenin that increasingly masks or even destroys cleavage sites, further decreasing digestibility.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and soluble form of receptor RAGE (sRAGE) concentrations as well as the AGEs/sRAGE ratio in mild (MH) and resistant (RH) hypertensive patients in comparison with normotensive individuals. We also evaluated the association between AGEs, sRAGE as well as AGEs/sRAGE ratio and circulating endothelial cells (CECs) and circulating endothelial progenitor cells (CEPCs). The MH group consisted of 30 patients, whereas 30 patients were classified for the RH group. The control group (C) included 25 normotensive volunteers. AGEs and sRAGE were measured using enzyme-linked-immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The multicolor flow cytometry was used for analysis of CECs and CEPCs. Significantly higher levels of AGEs in RH cohort were observed as compared to C cohort. Furthermore, significantly lower sRAGE levels as well as a higher AGEs/sRAGE ratio were observed between MH and RH cohorts. Significant correlations were found in the MH cohort for sRAGE and CECs, and CEPCs. The elevation of AGEs levels suggests that oxidative modification of proteins occurs in hypertension pathogenesis. The decrease in sRAGE levels and elevation of the AGEs/sRAGE ratio in MH and RH groups may suggest that hypertensive patients are less protected against the side effects of AGEs as a consequence of an insufficient competitive role of sRAGE against the AGEs-RAGE axis. Finally, it may be concluded that the level of AGEs may be an independent predictor of the condition and function of the endothelium. Furthermore, sRAGE may be classified as a potential biomarker of inflammation and endothelium dysfunction.

Abstract
Intracellular protein synthesis, folding, and degradation are tightly controlled processes to ensure proper protein homeostasis. The proteasome is responsible for the degradation of the majority of intracellular proteins, which are often targeted for degradation via polyubiquitination. However, the degradation rate of proteins is also affected by the capacity of proteasomes to recognize and degrade these substrate proteins. This capacity is regulated by a variety of proteasome modulations including (1) changes in complex composition, (2) post-translational modifications, and (3) altered transcription of proteasomal subunits and activators. Various diseases are linked to proteasome modulation and altered proteasome function. A better understanding of these modulations may offer new perspectives for therapeutic intervention. Here we present an overview of these three proteasome modulating mechanisms to give better insight into the diversity of proteasomes.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications (PTM) decorate proteins to provide functional heterogeneity to an existing proteome. The large number of known PTMs highlights the many ways that cells can modify their proteins to respond to diverse stimuli. Recently, PTMs have begun to receive increased interest because new sensitive proteomics workflows and structural methodologies now allow researchers to obtain large-scale, in-depth and unbiased information concerning PTM type and site localization. However, few PTMs have been extensively assessed for functional consequences, leaving a large knowledge gap concerning the inner workings of the cell. Here, we review understanding of N-𝜀-lysine acetylation in bacteria, a PTM that was largely ignored in bacteria until a decade ago. Acetylation is a modification that can dramatically change the function of a protein through alteration of its properties, including hydrophobicity, solubility, and surface properties, all of which may influence protein conformation and interactions with substrates, cofactors and other macromolecules. Most bacteria carry genes predicted to encode the lysine acetyltransferases and lysine deacetylases that add and remove acetylations, respectively. Many bacteria also exhibit acetylation activities that do not depend on an enzyme, but instead on direct transfer of acetyl groups from the central metabolites acetyl coenzyme A or acetyl phosphate. Regardless of mechanism, most central metabolic enzymes possess lysines that are acetylated in a regulated fashion and many of these regulated sites are conserved across the spectrum of bacterial phylogeny. The interconnectedness of acetylation and central metabolism suggests that acetylation may be a response to nutrient availability or the energy status of the cell. However, this and other hypotheses related to acetylation remain untested.

Abstract
Lipoxidation is a well-known reaction between electrophilic carbonyl species, formed during oxidation of lipids, and specific proteins that, in most cases, causes an alteration in proteins function. This can occur under physiological conditions but, in many cases, it has been associated to pathological process, including cancer. Lipoxidation may have an effect in cancer development through their effects in tumour cells, as well as through the alteration of immune components and the consequent modulation of the immune response. The formation of protein adducts affects different proteins in cancer, triggering different mechanism, such as proliferation, cell differentiation and apoptosis, among others, altering cancer progression. The divergent results obtained documented that the formation of lipoxidation adducts can have either anti-carcinogenic or pro-carcinogenic effects, depending on the cell type affected and the specific adduct formed. Moreover, lipoxidation adducts may alter the immune response, consequently causing either positive or negative alterations in cancer progression. Therefore, in this review, we summarize the effects of lipoxidation adducts in cancer cells and immune components and their consequences in the evolution of different types of cancer.

Abstract
An association between pollution (e.g., from traffic emissions) and the increased prevalence of respiratory allergies has been observed. Field-realistic exposure studies provide the most relevant assessment of the effects of the intensity and diversity of urban and industrial contamination on pollen structure and allergenicity. The significance of in-depth post-translational modification (PTM) studies of pollen proteomes, when compared with studies on other aspects of pollution and altered pollen allergenicity, has not yet been determined; hence, little progress has been made within this field. We undertook a comprehensive comparative analysis of multiple polluted and environmentally preserved Phleum pratense (Timothy grass) pollen samples using scanning electron microscopy, in-depth PTM profiling, determination of organic and inorganic pollutants, analysis of the release of sub-pollen particles and phenols/proteins, and analysis of proteome expression using high resolution tandem mass spectrometry. In addition, we used quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and immunoglobulin E (IgE) immunoblotting. An increased phenolic content and release of sub-pollen particles was found in pollen samples from the polluted area, including a significantly higher content of mercury, cadmium, and manganese, with irregular long spines on pollen grain surface structures. Antioxidative defense-related enzymes were significantly upregulated and seven oxidative PTMs were significantly increased (methionine, histidine, lysine, and proline oxidation; tyrosine glycosylation, lysine 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal adduct, and lysine carbamylation) in pollen exposed to the chemical plant and road traffic pollution sources. Oxidative modifications affected several Timothy pollen allergens; Phl p 6, in particular, exhibited several different oxidative modifications. The expression of Phl p 6, 12, and 13 allergens were downregulated in polluted pollen, and IgE binding to pollen extract was substantially lower in the 18 patients studied, as measured by quantitative ELISA. Quantitative, unrestricted, and detailed PTM searches using an enrichment-free approach pointed to modification of Timothy pollen allergens and suggested that heavy metals are primarily responsible for oxidative stress effects observed in pollen proteins.

Abstract
NEW FINDINGS What is the central question of this study? What is the biological role of carbonylation in muscle age-related functional decline and how might exercise affect the carbonylation process differently compared to habitual sedentary behaviour? What is the main finding and its importance? The carbonylation of troponin I (TNNI1), tropomyosin α-1 chain and α-actinin-1 demonstrated a relationship with muscle age-related functional decline. Exercise attenuated the decline by slowing the rate of carbonylation and promoting antioxidant reactions within the muscle. As exercise demonstrated the greatest effect on TNNI1, quantification of protein carbonyls in TNNI1 may be used as a potential biomarker of muscle age-related functional decline. ABSTRACT This study investigated the biological role of carbonylation in muscle age-related functional decline and how regular aerobic exercise may affect the carbonylation process differently from habitual sedentary behaviour. Twenty-four healthy male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (mean age: 23 months) were randomly divided into an old-aged sedentary control group (O-SED) and an old-aged aerobic exercise group (O-EX). The O-EX group participated in regular aerobic exercise - treadmill running - with exercise intensity increased gradually from 50-55% to 65-70% of maximum oxygen consumption ( V ̇ O 2 max ) over 10 weeks. Rats' body weight, exercise behaviour index, morphology and oxidative stress were monitored. Avidin magnetic beads and electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry were used for gathering and separating carbonylated proteins while western blot tested for molecular targets. O-SED and O-EX rats both had 19 oxidative modification sites for protein carbonylation. In the O-SED group, 16 specific carbonylated proteins were identified, while 16 additional specific species were also found in the O-EX group, with all 28 species demonstrating oxidative modifications. The carbonylated proteins included troponin I (TNNI1; slow skeletal muscle), tropomyosin α1 and α-actinin 1. In particular, TNNI1 carbonylation modifications were found only in sedentary rats. Aerobic exercise increased TNNI1 and Ca2+ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IIα expression significantly. Observations suggested that quantification of TNNI1 carbonylation may be a potential biomarker of muscle age-related functional decline. Importantly, regular aerobic exercise appeared to have antioxidant effects in the muscle that reduced TNNI1 slow carbonylation and promoted Ca2+ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IIα (CAMK2) and TNNI1 expression for skeletal muscle contraction regulation, thus attenuating possible age-related skeletal muscle functional decline.

Since diabetes is associated with low grade inflammation causing sustained nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) activation, the current study addressed 1) to what extent MGO changes the transcriptome of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) exposed to an inflammatory milieu, 2) what are the dominant pathways by which these changes occur and 3) to what extent is this affected by carnosine, a putative scavenger of MGO. Microarray analysis revealed that exposure of HUVECs to high MGO concentrations significantly changes gene expression, characterized by prominent down-regulation of cell cycle associated genes and up-regulation of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). KEGG-based pathway analysis identified six significantly enriched pathways of which the p53 pathway was the most affected. No significant enrichment of inflammatory pathways was found, yet, MGO did inhibit VCAM-1 expression in Western blot analysis. Carnosine significantly counteracted MGO-mediated changes in a subset of differentially expressed genes. Collectively, our results suggest that MGO initiates distinct transcriptional changes in cell cycle/apoptosis genes, which may explain MGO toxicity at high concentrations. MGO did not augment TNF-α induced inflammation.

Proteomic Profile of Carbonylated Proteins Screen Regulation of Apoptosis via CaMK Signaling in Response to Regular Aerobic Exercise. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2019; 2018:2828143. [PMID: 30662904 PMCID: PMC6312609 DOI: 10.1155/2018/2828143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2018] [Accepted: 11/26/2018] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
To research carbonylated proteins and screen molecular targets in the rat striatum on regular aerobic exercise, male Sprague-Dawley rats (13 months old, n = 24) were randomly divided into middle-aged sedentary control (M-SED) and aerobic exercise (M-EX) groups (n = 12 each). Maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) gradually increased from 50%-55% to 65%-70% for a total of 10 weeks. A total of 36 carbonylated proteins with modified oxidative sites were identified by Electrospray Ionization-Quadrupole-Time of Flight-Mass Spectrometer (ESI-Q-TOF-MS), including 17 carbonylated proteins unique to the M-SED group, calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II subunit beta (CaMKIIβ), and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A2/B1 (Hnrnpa2b1), among others, and 19 specific to the M-EX group, ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase isozyme L1 (UCH-L1), and malic enzyme, among others. Regular aerobic exercise improved behavioral and stereological indicators, promoted normal apoptosis (P < 0.01), alleviated carbonylation of the CaMKIIβ and Hnrnpa2b1, but induced carbonylation of the UCH-L1, and significantly upregulated the expression levels of CaMKIIβ, CaMKIIα, and Vdac1 (p < 0.01) and Hnrnpa2b1 and UCH-L1 (p < 0.01), as well as the phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin pathways (PI3K/Akt/mTOR) pathway-related genes Akt and mTOR. Regular aerobic exercise for 10 weeks (incremental for the first 6 weeks followed by constant loading for 4 weeks) enhanced carbonylation of CaMKIIβ, Hnrnpa2b1, and modulated apoptosis via activation of CaMK and phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mTOR signaling. It also promoted normal apoptosis in the rat striatum, which may have protective effects in neurons.

Abstract
Redox (portmanteau of reduction-oxidation) reactions involve the transfer of electrons between chemical species in biological processes fundamental to life. It is of outmost importance that cells maintain a healthy redox state by balancing the action of oxidants and antioxidants; failure to do so leads to a multitude of diseases including cancer, diabetes, fibrosis, autoimmune diseases, and cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. From the perspective of precision medicine, it is therefore beneficial to interrogate the redox phenotype of the individual-similar to the use of genomic sequencing-in order to design tailored strategies for disease prevention and treatment. This chapter provides an overview of redox metabolism and focuses on how mass spectrometry (MS) can be applied to advance our knowledge in redox biology and precision medicine.

Differences in sperm protein abundance and carbonylation level in bull ejaculates of low and high quality. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0206150. [PMID: 30427859 PMCID: PMC6241115 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0206150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2018] [Accepted: 10/08/2018] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
In breeding and insemination centres, significant variation in bull ejaculate quality is often observed between individuals and also within the same individual. Low-quality semen does not qualify for cryopreservation and is rejected, generating economic loss. The mechanisms underlying the formation of low-quality ejaculates are poorly understood; therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the proteomic differences and oxidative modifications (measured as changes in protein carbonylation level) of bull ejaculates of low and high quality. Flow cytometry and computer-assisted sperm analysis were used to assess differences in viability, reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, and sperm motility. To analyse changes in protein abundance, two-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) was performed. Western blotting in conjunction with two-dimensional electrophoresis (2D-oxyblot) was used to quantitate carbonylated sperm proteins. Proteins were identified using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation time-of-flight/time-of-flight spectrometry. High quality ejaculates were characterised by higher sperm motility, viability, concentration, and a lower number of ROS-positive cells (ROS+). We found significant differences in the protein profile between high- and low-quality ejaculates, and identified 14 protein spots corresponding to 10 proteins with differences in abundance. The identified sperm proteins were mainly associated with energetic metabolism, capacitation, fertilisation, motility, and cellular detoxification. High-quality ejaculates were characterised by a high abundance of extracellular sperm surface proteins, likely due to more efficient secretion from accessory sex glands and/or epididymis, and a low abundance of intracellular proteins. Our results show that sperm proteins in low-quality ejaculates are characterised by a high carbonylation level. Moreover, we identified, for the first time, 14 protein spots corresponding to 12 proteins with differences in carbonylation level between low- and high-quality ejaculates. The carbonylated proteins were localised mainly in mitochondria or their immediate surroundings. Oxidative damage to proteins in low-quality semen may be associated with phosphorylation/dephosphorylation disturbances, mitochondrial dysfunction, and motility apparatus disorders. Our results contribute to research regarding the mechanism by which low- and high-quality ejaculates are formed and to the identification of sperm proteins that are particularly sensitive to oxidative damage.

Abstract
Fingermarks are trace evidence of great forensic importance, and their omnipresence makes them pivotal in crime investigation. Police and law enforcement authorities have exploited fingermarks primarily for personal identification, but crucial knowledge on when fingermarks were deposited is often lacking, thereby hindering crime reconstruction. Biomolecular constituents of fingermark residue, such as amino acids, lipids and proteins, may provide excellent means for fingermark age determination, however robust methodologies or detailed knowledge on molecular mechanisms in time are currently not available. Here, we address fingermark age assessment by: (i) drafting a first protein map of fingermark residue, (ii) differential studies of fresh and aged fingermarks and (iii), to mimic real-world scenarios, estimating the effects of donor contact with bodily fluids on the identification of potential age biomarkers. Using a high-resolution mass spectrometry-based proteomics approach, we drafted a characteristic fingermark proteome, of which five proteins were identified as promising candidates for fingermark age estimation. This study additionally demonstrates successful identification of both endogenous and contaminant proteins from donors that have been in contact with various bodily fluids. In summary, we introduce state-of-the-art proteomics as a sensitive tool to monitor fingermark aging on the protein level with sufficient selectivity to differentiate potential age markers from body fluid contaminants.

Abstract
Oxidative stress accompanies various diseases associated with chronic inflammation. In this work, H2O2 and H2O2-Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were used as two reactive oxygen species to study the oxidative stress for the structure and polymerization behaviour of fibrinogen molecules. The alterations of secondary structure and component of fibrinogen molecule were characterized by circular dichroism spectra, ultraviolet-visible spectra and fluorescence spectra, the viscoelasticity of fibrinogen solution was studied by dynamic light scattering microrheology. Based on the molecular dynamics simulations and fluorescence properties, the possible oxidative stress sites were analyzed and confirmed by Tb3+ probe. The hydrophobicity/philicity and electrostatic net charges present on the exterior part of the fibrinogen molecules were measured with zeta potential. The height and image analysis obtained from atomic force microscope indicated that oxidative stress of fibrinogen molecules could influence the equilateral junctions of protofibrils and the different cross-linking patterns between the α- and γ-chains, result in the decrease of the fibre size, form a higher proportion of branching and a denser aggregation state. This study will provide insights into the misfolding and fibril formation of disease-associated fibrinogen, facilitate an increased understanding of how oxidative stress in vivo affects the formation and polymerization of fibrin, and support efforts for the improved treatment of patients suffering from the thrombotic disease.

Abstract
The widespread use of engineered nanomaterials or nanotechnology makes the characterization of biological responses to nanomaterials an important area of research. The application of omics approaches, such as mass spectrometry-based proteomics, has revealed new insights into the cellular responses of exposure to nanomaterials, including how nanomaterials interact and alter cellular pathways. In addition, exposure to engineered nanomaterials often leads to the generation of reactive oxygen species and cellular oxidative stress, which implicates a redox-dependent regulation of cellular responses under such conditions. In this review, we discuss quantitative proteomics-based approaches, with an emphasis on redox proteomics, as a tool for system-level characterization of the biological responses induced by engineered nanomaterials.

Abstract
Activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) is a stress-responsive factor that belongs to the activator protein 1 (AP-1) family of transcription factors. ATF3 expression is stimulated by various factors such as hypoxia, cytokines, and chemotherapeutic and DNA damaging agents. Upon stimulation, ATF3 can form homodimers or heterodimers with other members of the AP-1 family to repress or activate transcription. Under physiological conditions, ATF3 expression is transient and plays a pivotal role in controlling the expression of cell-cycle regulators and tumor suppressor, DNA repair, and apoptosis genes. However, under pathological conditions such as those during breast cancer, a sustained and prolonged expression of ATF3 has been observed. In this review, the structure and function of ATF3, its posttranslational modifications (PTM), and its interacting proteins are discussed with a special emphasis on breast cancer metastasis.

Abstract
Nitrogen fixation is an agronomically and environmentally important process catalyzed by bacterial nitrogenase within legume root nodules. These unique symbiotic organs have high metabolic rates and produce large amounts of reactive oxygen species that may modify proteins irreversibly. Here, we examined two types of oxidative posttranslational modifications of nodule proteins: carbonylation, which occurs by direct oxidation of certain amino acids or by interaction with reactive aldehydes arising from cell membrane lipid peroxides; and glycation, which results from the reaction of lysine and arginine residues with reducing sugars or their autooxidation products. We used a strategy based on the enrichment of carbonylated peptides by affinity chromatography followed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to identify 369 oxidized proteins in bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) nodules. Of these, 238 corresponded to plant proteins and 131 to bacterial proteins. Lipid peroxidation products induced most carbonylation sites. This study also revealed that carbonylation has major effects on two key nodule proteins. Metal-catalyzed oxidation caused the inactivation of malate dehydrogenase and the aggregation of leghemoglobin. In addition, numerous glycated proteins were identified in vivo, including three key nodule proteins: sucrose synthase, glutamine synthetase, and glutamate synthase. Label-free quantification identified 10 plant proteins and 18 bacterial proteins as age-specifically glycated. Overall, our results suggest that the selective carbonylation or glycation of crucial proteins involved in nitrogen metabolism, transcriptional regulation, and signaling may constitute a mechanism to control cell metabolism and nodule senescence.

Abstract
Pathological levels of oxidative stress (OS) have been implicated in many diseases including diabetes mellitus, neurodegenerative diseases, inflammatory diseases, atherosclerosis, and cancer. Studies of oxidative stress are however complicated by the low concentration of oxidation products. To resolve this problem, we tested a new derivative of aminoadipic semialdehyde (Fmoc-Aea-OH) in the solid-phase synthesis of carbonylated peptides. We prepared a series of peptides with free and acetylated N-terminal amino groups using the Fmoc-Aea-OH reagent. LC-MS, ESI-MS, and MS/MS spectra confirmed the sequences of the modified peptides, although the LC-MS and ESI-MS spectra were dominated by signals corresponding to dehydration products. NMR studies of acetylated products revealed that the dominant product formed in this reaction contains a 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyridine-2-carboxylic acid residue. Another side reaction in this system was the cleavage of the amide bond between the Aea residue and the amino acid moiety preceding it resulting in the formation of a side product with a six-membered ring at the N-terminus (2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridine-2-carboxylic acid residue). We found that, depending on the peptide sequence, one of those side products is predominant. Our work suggests new methods for the solid-state synthesis of peptides containing unnatural amino acids.

Abstract
AIMS High levels of glucose and reactive carbonyl intermediates of its degradation pathway such as methylglyoxal (MG) may contribute to diabetic complications partly via increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This study focused on glutathione peroxidase-1 (GPx1) expression and the impact of carbonylation as an oxidative protein modification on GPx1 abundance and activity in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) under conditions of mild to moderate oxidative stress. RESULTS High extracellular glucose and MG enhanced intracellular ROS formation in HUVECs. Protein carbonylation was only transiently augmented pointing to an effective antioxidant defense in these cells. Nitric oxide synthase expression was decreased under hyperglycemic conditions but increased upon exposure to MG, whereas superoxide dismutase expression was not significantly affected. Increased glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity seemed to compensate for a decrease in GPx1 protein due to enhanced degradation via the proteasome. Mass spectrometry analysis identified Lys-114 as a possible carbonylation target which provides a vestibule for the substrate H2O2 and thus enhances the enzymatic reaction. INNOVATION Oxidative protein carbonylation has so far been associated with functional inactivation of modified target proteins mainly contributing to aging and age-related diseases. Here, we demonstrate that mild oxidative stress and subsequent carbonylation seem to activate protective cellular redox signaling pathways whereas severe oxidative stress overwhelms the cellular antioxidant defense leading to cell damage. CONCLUSIONS This study may contribute to a better understanding of redox homeostasis and its role in the development of diabetes and related vascular complications.

Abstract
Huntington’s disease (HD) is associated with the misfolding and aggregation of mutant huntingtin harboring an elongated polyglutamine stretch at its N terminus. A distinguishing pathological hallmark of HD is mitochondrial dysfunction. Any strategy that can restore the integrity of the mitochondrial environment should have beneficial consequences for the disease. Specific RNA aptamers were selected that were able to inhibit aggregation of elongated polyglutamine stretch containing mutant huntingtin fragment (103Q-htt). They were successful in reducing the calcium overload, which leads to mitochondrial membrane depolarization in case of HD. In one case, the level of Ca2+ was restored to the level of cells not expressing 103Q-htt, suggesting complete recovery. The presence of aptamers was able to increase mitochondrial mass in cells expressing 103Q-htt, along with rescuing loss of mitochondrial genome. The oxidative damage to the proteome was prevented, which led to increased viability of cells, as monitored by flow cytometry. Thus, the presence of aptamers was able to inhibit aggregation of mutant huntingtin fragment and restore mitochondrial dysfunction in the HD cell model, confirming the advantage of the strategy in a disease-relevant parameter.

Abstract
Cordyceps sinensis (C. sinensis) has been reported to treat liver diseases. Here, we investigated the inhibitory effect of C. sinensis on hepatocarcinoma in a diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced rat model with functional proteome tools.In the DEN-exposed group, levels of serum alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase were increased while C. sinensis application remarkably inhibited the activities of these enzymes. Histopathological analysis also indicated that C. sinensis could substantially restore hypertrophic hepatocytes caused by DEN, suggesting that C. sinensis is effective in preventing DEN-induced hepatocarcinogenesis.We therefore comprehensively delineated the global protein alterations using a proteome platform. The most meaningful changes were found among proteins involved in oxidative stress and detoxification. Meanwhile, C. sinensis application could attenuate the carbonylation level of several enzymes as well as chaperone proteins. Network analysis implied that C. sinensis could obviously alleviate hepatocarcinoma via modulating redox imbalance, protein ubiquitination and tumor growth-associated transcription factors.Our findings provide new insight into the potential effects of C. sinensis in preventing carcinogenesis and might help in developing novel therapeutic strategies against chemical-induced hepatocarcinoma.

Abstract
The Redox Code involves specific, reversible oxidative changes in proteins that modulate protein tertiary structure, interactions, trafficking, and activity, and hence couple the proteome to the metabolic/oxidative state of cells. It is currently a major focus of study in cell biology. Recent studies of dynamic cellular spatial reorganization with MS-based subcellular-spatial-razor proteomics reveal that protein constituents of many subcellular structures, including mitochondria, the endoplasmic reticulum, the plasma membrane, and the extracellular matrix, undergo changes in their subcellular abundance/distribution in response to oxidative stress. These proteins are components of a diverse variety of functional processes spatially distributed across cells. Many of the same proteins are involved in response to suppression of DNA replication indicate that oxidative stress is strongly intertwined with DNA replication/proliferation. Both are replete with networks of moonlighting proteins that show coordinated changes in subcellular location and that include primary protein actuators of the redox code involved in the processing of NAD+ /NADH, NADP+ /NADPH, Cys/CySS, and GSH/GSSG redox couples. Small groups of key proteins such as {KPNA2, KPNB1, PCNA, PTMA, SET} constitute "spatial switches" that modulate many nuclear processes. Much of the functional response involves subcellular protein trafficking, including nuclear import/export processes, vesicle-mediated trafficking, the endoplasmic reticulum/Golgi pathway, chaperone-assisted processes, and other transport systems. This is not visible to measurements of total protein abundance by transcriptomics or proteomics. Comprehensive pictures of cellular function will require collection of data on the subcellular transport and local functions of many moonlighting proteins, especially of those with critical roles in spatial coordination across cells. The proteome-wide analysis of coordinated changes in abundance and trafficking of proteins offered by MS-based proteomics has a unique, crucial role to play in deciphering the complex adaptive systems that underlie cellular function. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Background Carbonylation, which takes place through oxidation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) on specific residues, is an irreversibly oxidative modification of proteins. It has been reported that the carbonylation is related to a number of metabolic or aging diseases including diabetes, chronic lung disease, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease. Due to the lack of computational methods dedicated to exploring motif signatures of protein carbonylation sites, we were motivated to exploit an iterative statistical method to characterize and identify carbonylated sites with motif signatures. Results By manually curating experimental data from research articles, we obtained 332, 144, 135, and 140 verified substrate sites for K (lysine), R (arginine), T (threonine), and P (proline) residues, respectively, from 241 carbonylated proteins. In order to examine the informative attributes for classifying between carbonylated and non-carbonylated sites, multifarious features including composition of twenty amino acids (AAC), composition of amino acid pairs (AAPC), position-specific scoring matrix (PSSM), and positional weighted matrix (PWM) were investigated in this study. Additionally, in an attempt to explore the motif signatures of carbonylation sites, an iterative statistical method was adopted to detect statistically significant dependencies of amino acid compositions between specific positions around substrate sites. Profile hidden Markov model (HMM) was then utilized to train a predictive model from each motif signature. Moreover, based on the method of support vector machine (SVM), we adopted it to construct an integrative model by combining the values of bit scores obtained from profile HMMs. The combinatorial model could provide an enhanced performance with evenly predictive sensitivity and specificity in the evaluation of cross-validation and independent testing. Conclusion This study provides a new scheme for exploring potential motif signatures at substrate sites of protein carbonylation. The usefulness of the revealed motifs in the identification of carbonylated sites is demonstrated by their effective performance in cross-validation and independent testing. Finally, these substrate motifs were adopted to build an available online resource (MDD-Carb, http://csb.cse.yzu.edu.tw/MDDCarb/) and are also anticipated to facilitate the study of large-scale carbonylated proteomes.

Abstract
Proteins can undergo oxidative cleavage by in vitro metal-catalyzed oxidation (MCO) in either the α-amidation or the diamide pathway. However, whether oxidative cleavage of polypeptide-chain occurs in biological systems remains unexplored. We describe a chemoproteomic approach to globally and site-specifically profile electrophilic protein degradants formed from peptide backbone cleavages in human proteomes, including the known N-terminal α-ketoacyl products and >1000 unexpected N-terminal formyl products. Strikingly, such cleavages predominantly occur at the carboxyl side of lysine (K) and arginine (R) residues across native proteomes in situ, while MCO-induced oxidative cleavages randomly distribute on peptide/protein sequences in vitro. Furthermore, ionizing radiation-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) also generate random oxidative cleavages in situ. These findings suggest that the endogenous formation of N-formyl and N-α-ketoacyl degradants in biological systems is more likely regulated by a previously unknown mechanism with a trypsin-like specificity, rather than the random oxidative damage as previously thought. More generally, our study highlights the utility of quantitative chemoproteomics in combination with unrestricted search tools as a viable strategy to discover unexpected chemical modifications of proteins labeled with active-based probes.

Abstract
Targeted covalent inhibitors have gained widespread attention in drug discovery as a validated method to circumvent acquired resistance in oncology. This strategy exploits small-molecule/protein crystal structures to design tightly binding ligands with appropriately positioned electrophilic warheads. Whilst most focus has been on targeting binding-site cysteine residues, targeting nucleophilic lysine residues can also represent a viable approach to irreversible inhibition. However, owing to the basicity of the ϵ-amino group in lysine, this strategy generates a number of specific challenges. Herein, we review the key principles for inhibitor design, give historical examples, and present recent developments that demonstrate the potential of lysine targeting for future drug discovery.

Abstract
Objectives The main question of this study was to evaluate the intensity of oxidative protein modification shown as advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) and carbonylated proteins, expressed as protein carbonyl content (C=O) in abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), aortoiliac occlusive disease (AIOD), and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Design and Methods The study was carried out in a group of 35 AAA patients and 13 AIOD patients. However, CKD patients were divided into two groups: predialysis (PRE) included 50 patients or hemodialysis (HD) consisted of 34 patients. AOPP and C=O were measured using colorimetric assay kit, while C-reactive protein concentration was measured by high-sensitivity assay (hsCRP). Results The concentration of AOPP in both AAA and AIOD groups was higher than in PRE and HD groups according to descending order: AAA~AIOD > HD > PRE. The content of C=O was higher in the PRE group in comparison to AIOD and AAA according to the descending order: PRE~HD > AAA~AIOD. Conclusions AAA, AIOD, and CKD-related atherosclerosis (PRE and HD) contribute to the changes in the formation of AOPP and C=O. They may promote modification of proteins in a different way, probably due to the various factors that influence oxidative stress here.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia and one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality among the aging population. AD diagnosis is made post-mortem, and the two pathologic hallmarks, particularly evident in the end stages of the illness, are amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles. Currently, there is no curative treatment for AD. Additionally, there is a strong relation between oxidative stress, metabolic syndrome, and AD. The high levels of circulating lipids and glucose imbalances amplify lipid peroxidation that gradually diminishes the antioxidant systems, causing high levels of oxidative metabolism that affects cell structure, leading to neuronal damage. Accumulating evidence suggests that AD is closely related to a dysfunction of both insulin signaling and glucose metabolism in the brain, leading to an insulin-resistant brain state. Four drugs are currently used for this pathology: Three FDA-approved cholinesterase inhibitors and one NMDA receptor antagonist. However, wide varieties of antioxidants are promissory to delay or prevent the symptoms of AD and may help in treating the disease. Therefore, therapeutic efforts to achieve attenuation of oxidative stress could be beneficial in AD treatment, attenuating Aβ-induced neurotoxicity and improve neurological outcomes in AD. The term inflammaging characterizes a widely accepted paradigm that aging is accompanied by a low-grade chronic up-regulation of certain pro-inflammatory responses in the absence of overt infection, and is a highly significant risk factor for both morbidity and mortality in the elderly.

Abstract
Organisms living in extreme environments have evolved a wide range of survival strategies by changing biochemical and physiological features depending on their biological niches. Interestingly, organisms exhibiting high radiation resistance have been discovered in the three domains of life (Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya), even though a naturally radiationintensive environment has not been found. To counteract the deleterious effects caused by radiation exposure, radiation- resistant organisms employ a series of defensive systems, such as changes in intracellular cation concentration, excellent DNA repair systems, and efficient enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant systems. Here, we overview past and recent findings about radiation-resistance mechanisms in the three domains of life for potential usage of such radiationresistant microbes in the biotechnology industry.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a key role in the acclimation process of plants to abiotic stress. They primarily function as signal transduction molecules that regulate different pathways during plant acclimation to stress, but are also toxic byproducts of stress metabolism. Because each subcellular compartment in plants contains its own set of ROS-producing and ROS-scavenging pathways, the steady-state level of ROS, as well as the redox state of each compartment, is different at any given time giving rise to a distinct signature of ROS levels at the different compartments of the cell. Here we review recent studies on the role of ROS in abiotic stress in plants, and propose that different abiotic stresses, such as drought, heat, salinity and high light, result in different ROS signatures that determine the specificity of the acclimation response and help tailor it to the exact stress the plant encounters. We further address the role of ROS in the acclimation of plants to stress combination as well as the role of ROS in mediating rapid systemic signaling during abiotic stress. We conclude that as long as cells maintain high enough energy reserves to detoxify ROS, ROS is beneficial to plants during abiotic stress enabling them to adjust their metabolism and mount a proper acclimation response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Protein carbonylation, an irreversible and non-enzymatic post-translational modification (PTM), is often used as a marker of oxidative stress. When reactive oxygen species (ROS) oxidized the amino acid side chains, carbonyl (CO) groups are produced especially on Lysine (K), Arginine (R), Threonine (T), and Proline (P). Nevertheless, due to the lack of information about the carbonylated substrate specificity, we were encouraged to develop a systematic method for a comprehensive investigation of protein carbonylation sites. RESULTS After the removal of redundant data from multipe carbonylation-related articles, totally 226 carbonylated proteins in human are regarded as training dataset, which consisted of 307, 126, 128, and 129 carbonylation sites for K, R, T and P residues, respectively. To identify the useful features in predicting carbonylation sites, the linear amino acid sequence was adopted not only to build up the predictive model from training dataset, but also to compare the effectiveness of prediction with other types of features including amino acid composition (AAC), amino acid pair composition (AAPC), position-specific scoring matrix (PSSM), positional weighted matrix (PWM), solvent-accessible surface area (ASA), and physicochemical properties. The investigation of position-specific amino acid composition revealed that the positively charged amino acids (K and R) are remarkably enriched surrounding the carbonylated sites, which may play a functional role in discriminating between carbonylation and non-carbonylation sites. A variety of predictive models were built using various features and three different machine learning methods. Based on the evaluation by five-fold cross-validation, the models trained with PWM feature could provide better sensitivity in the positive training dataset, while the models trained with AAindex feature achieved higher specificity in the negative training dataset. Additionally, the model trained using hybrid features, including PWM, AAC and AAindex, obtained best MCC values of 0.432, 0.472, 0.443 and 0.467 on K, R, T and P residues, respectively. CONCLUSION When comparing to an existing prediction tool, the selected models trained with hybrid features provided a promising accuracy on an independent testing dataset. In short, this work not only characterized the carbonylated substrate preference, but also demonstrated that the proposed method could provide a feasible means for accelerating preliminary discovery of protein carbonylation.

Abstract
Oxidative stress alters physiological function in most biological tissues and can lead to cell death. In the retina, oxidative stress initiates a cascade of events leading to focal loss of RPE and photoreceptors, which is thought to be a major contributing factor to geographic atrophy. Despite these implications, the molecular regulation of RPE oxidative stress under normal and pathological conditions remains largely unknown. A better understanding of the mechanisms involved in regulating RPE and photoreceptors oxidative stress response is greatly needed. To this end we evaluated photoreceptor and RPE changes in mice deficient in DJ-1, a protein that is thought to be important in protecting cells from oxidative stress. Young (3 months) and aged (18 months) DJ-1 knockout (DJ-1 KO) and age-matched wild-type mice were examined. In both group of aged mice, scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (SLO) showed the presence of a few autofluorescent foci. The 18 month-old DJ-1 KO retinas were also characterized by a noticeable increase in RPE fluorescence to wild-type. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging demonstrated that all retinal layers were present in the eyes of both DJ-1 KO groups. ERG comparisons showed that older DJ-1 KO mice had reduced sensitivity under dark- and light-adapted conditions compared to age-matched control. Histologically, the RPE contained prominent vacuoles in young DJ-1 KO group with the appearance of enlarged irregularly shaped RPE cells in the older group. These were also evident in OCT and in whole mount RPE/choroid preparations labeled with phalloidin. Photoreceptors in the older DJ-1 KO mice displayed decreased immunoreactivity to rhodopsin and localized reduction in cone markers compared to the wild-type control group. Lower levels of activated Nrf2 were evident in retina/RPE lysates in both young and old DJ-1 KO mouse groups compared to wild-type control levels. Conversely, higher levels of protein carbonyl derivatives and iNOS immunoreactivity were detected in retina/RPE lysates from both young and old DJ-1 KO mice. These results demonstrate that DJ-1 KO mice display progressive signs of retinal/RPE degeneration in association with higher levels of oxidative stress markers. Collectively this analysis indicates that DJ-1 plays an important role in protecting photoreceptors and RPE from oxidative damage during aging.

Abstract
During thermal treatment of milk, proteins are oxidized, which may reduce the nutritional value of milk, abolish protein functions supporting human health, especially important for newborns, and yield potentially harmful products. The side chains of several amino acids can be oxidized to reactive carbonyls, which are often used to monitor oxidative stress in organisms. Here we mapped protein carbonylation sites in raw milk and different brands of pasteurized, ultra high temperature (UHT) treated milk, and infant formulas (IFs) after digesting the precipitated proteins with trypsin. Reactive carbonyls were derivatized with O-(biotinylcarbazoylmethyl)hydroxylamine to enrich the modified peptides by avidin-biotin affinity chromatography and analyze them by nanoRP-UPLC-ESI-MS. Overall, 53 unique carbonylated peptides (37 carbonylation sites, 15 proteins) were identified. Most carbonyls were derived from dicarbonyls (mainly glyoxal). The number of carbonylation sites increased with the harsher processing from raw milk (4) to pasteurized (16) and UHT milk (16) and to IF (24).

Abstract
We report a chemical isotope labeling (CIL) liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method generally applicable for tracking metabolomic changes from samples collected in an animal model for studying disease development and treatment. A rat model of surgically induced osteoarthritis (OA) was used as an example to illustrate the workflow and technical performance. Experimental duplicate analyses of 234 plasma samples were carried out using dansylation labeling LC-MS targeting the amine/phenol submetabolome. These samples composed of 39 groups (6 rats per group) were collected at multiple time points with sham operation, OA control group, and OA rats with treatment, separately, using glucosamine/Celecoxib and three traditional Chinese medicines (Epimedii folium, Chuanxiong Rhizoma and Bushen-Huoxue). In total, 3893 metabolites could be detected and 2923 of them were consistently detected in more than 50% of the runs. This high-coverage submetabolome dataset could be used to track OA progression and treatment. Many differentiating metabolites were found and 11 metabolites including 2-aminoadipic acid, saccharopine and GABA were selected as potential biomarkers of OA progression and OA treatment. This study illustrates that CIL LC-MS is a very useful technique for monitoring incremental metabolomic changes with high coverage and accuracy for studying disease progression and treatment in animal models.

A biotin enrichment strategy identifies novel carbonylated amino acids in proteins from human plasma. J Proteomics 2017; 156:40-51.

Abstract
Protein carbonylation is an irreversible protein oxidation correlated with oxidative stress, various diseases and ageing. Here we describe a peptide-centric approach for identification and characterisation of up to 14 different types of carbonylated amino acids in proteins. The modified residues are derivatised with biotin-hydrazide, enriched and characterised by tandem mass spectrometry. The strength of the method lies in an improved elution of biotinylated peptides from monomeric avidin resin using hot water (95°C) and increased sensitivity achieved by reduction of analyte losses during sample preparation and chromatography. For the first time MS/MS data analysis utilising diagnostic biotin fragment ions is used to pinpoint sites of biotin labelling and improve the confidence of carbonyl peptide assignments. We identified a total of 125 carbonylated residues in bovine serum albumin after extensive in vitro metal ion-catalysed oxidation. Furthermore, we assigned 133 carbonylated sites in 36 proteins in native human plasma protein samples. The optimised workflow enabled detection of 10 hitherto undetected types of carbonylated amino acids in proteins: aldehyde and ketone modifications of leucine, valine, alanine, isoleucine, glutamine, lysine and glutamic acid (+14Da), an oxidised form of methionine - aspartate semialdehyde (-32Da) - and decarboxylated glutamic acid and aspartic acid (-30Da). BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE Proteomic tools provide a promising way to decode disease mechanisms at the protein level and help to understand how carbonylation affects protein structure and function. The challenge for future research is to identify the type and nature of oxidised residues to gain a deeper understanding of the mechanism(s) governing carbonylation in cells and organisms and assess their role in disease.

Abstract
Human fibrinogen is an important coagulation factor as well as an independent predictor of coronary heart disease and stroke. Analysis of dysfibrinogens may provide useful information and help us to understand the molecular defects in fibrin polymerization. In the present study, we investigated the influence of oxidative stress of fibrinogen induced by H2O2 on the polymerization state of fibrin. UV absorbance spectroscopy, circular dichroism, ζ-potential, dynamic light scattering and steady shear viscosity were all employed to study the influence of oxidative stress on the molecular structure, the surface charges, and the size and shape of fibrinogen molecules. The fibrin morphology obtained was imaged and investigated using atomic force microscopy. The results demonstrated that the cross-linking, branching and height distribution of formed fibrin will be influenced by the oxidative stress of fibrinogen. This study presents new insights into the aggregation behaviour of fibrinogen and will be helpful to understand the formation mechanism of thrombosis under oxidative stress.

Abstract
Activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) serves as a chemical proteomic platform to discover and characterize functional amino acids in proteins on the basis of their enhanced reactivity towards small-molecule probes. This approach, to date, has mainly targeted nucleophilic functional groups, such as the side chains of serine and cysteine, using electrophilic probes. We show here that "reverse-polarity" (RP)-ABPP using clickable, nucleophilic hydrazine probes can capture and identify protein-bound electrophiles in cells, including the pyruvoyl cofactor of S-adenosyl-l-methionine decarboxylase (AMD1), which we find is dynamically controlled by intracellular methionine concentrations, and a heretofore unknown modification – an N-terminally bound glyoxylyl group – in the poorly characterized protein secernin-3. RP-ABPP thus provides a versatile method to monitor the metabolic regulation of electrophilic cofactors and discover novel types of electrophilic modifications on proteins in human cells. A chemical proteomic strategy is described for the discovery of protein-bound electrophilic groups in human cells and used to characterize dynamic regulation of the pyruvoyl catalytic cofactor in S-adenosyl-l-methionine decarboxylase and to discover an N-terminal glyoxylyl modification on Secernin proteins.

Abstract
Introduction Human serum albumin (HSA) is a critical protein in human blood plasma, which can be highly damaged by oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to analyze modifications of this protein after oxidation using a Fenton system. Methods In this 2015 experiment, different ratios of Fenton reagent (Fe2+/H2O2) was incubated with one concentration of human serum albumin (1mg/ml). Hence, HSA was incubated 30 min with various combinations of a Fenton system and quantified oxidation products such as carbonyl groups, fragmentations, degradations, and oxidized free thiol group using reliable techniques. Image and data analysis were carried out using ImageJ software and Excel (version 2007), respectively. Results An SDS-PAGE profile showed no cross link and aggregation. However, protein band intensity has decreased to 50% in the highest ratio of H2O2/Fe. Carbonylation assay indicated carbonyl/protein (molc/molp) ratio increased linearly in lower ratios and the values plateau at higher levels of H2O2/Fe 2+. The only free sulfhydryl group on HSA was oxidized in all ratios of the Fenton system. Conclusion To sum, the structure of HSA has been changed following treatment with Hydroxyl Radical as the main product of Fenton reaction. These data confirm the antioxidant activity of HSA.

Abstract
Because of their contractile activity and their high oxygen consumption and metabolic rate, skeletal muscles continually produce moderate levels of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS/RNS), which increase during exercise and are buffered by multiple antioxidant systems to maintain redox homeostasis. Imbalance between ROS/RNS production and elimination results in oxidative stress (OxS), which has been implicated in ageing and in numerous human diseases, including cancer, diabetes or age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia). The study of redox homeostasis in muscle was hindered by its lability, by the many factors influencing technical OxS measures and by ROS/RNS important roles in signaling pathways and adaptative responses to muscle contraction and effort, which make it difficult to define a threshold between physiological signaling and pathological conditions. In the last years, new tools have been developed that facilitate the study of these key mechanisms, and deregulation of redox homeostasis has emerged as a key pathogenic mechanism and potential therapeutic target in muscle conditions. This is in particular the case for early-onset myopathies, genetic muscle diseases which present from birth or early childhood with muscle weakness interfering with ambulation and often with cardiac or respiratory failure leading to premature death. Inherited defects of the reductase selenoprotein N in SEPN1-related myopathy leads to chronic OxS of monogenic origin as a primary disease pathomechanism. In myopathies associated with mutations of the genes encoding the calcium channel RyR1, the extracellular matrix protein collagen VI or the sarcolemmal protein dystrophin (Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy), OxS has been identified as a relevant secondary pathophysiological mechanism. OxS being drug-targetable, it represents an interesting therapeutic target for these incurable conditions, and following preclinical correction of the cell or animal model phenotype, the first clinical trials with the antioxidants N-acetylcysteine (SEPN1- and RYR1-related myopathies) or epigallocatechin-gallate (DMD) have been launched recently. In this review, we provide an overview of the mechanisms involved in redox regulation in skeletal muscle, the technical tools available to measure redox homeostasis in muscle cells, the bases of OxS as a primary or secondary pathomechanism in early-onset myopathies and the innovative clinical trials with antioxidants which are currently in progress for these so-far untreatable infantile muscle diseases. Progress in our knowledge of redox homeostasis defects in these rare muscle conditions may be useful as a model paradigm to understand and treat other conditions in which OxS is involved, including prevalent conditions with major socioeconomic impact such as insulin resistance, cachexia, obesity, sarcopenia or ageing.

In the present study, we evaluated the relationship between oxidative carbonylation and prophenoloxidase-activating system (proPO-AS) activity, by exposing P. clarkii to sub-lethal concentrations (1/50, 1/12, 1/6 and 1/3 of the 96 h LC50) Cu(2+) up to 96 h. Six biomarkers of oxidative stress, i.e. reactive oxygen species (ROS), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), protein carbonyl (PC), malondialdehyde (MDA) and DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs), and six indicators of immune status, i.e. total hemocyte counts (THCs), differential hemocyte counts (DHCs), hemocyanin (HC), prophenoloxidase (proPO), serine protease (SP) and phenoloxidase (PO), were determined in haemolymph. The results indicated that there was a significant increase (P < 0.05) in the levels of ROS, PC, MDA and DPCs accompanied by markedly decreased (P < 0.05) activities of proPO, SP, PO and HC in a dose and time dependent manner. The significant and positive correlations (P < 0.01) between ROS production and the formation of PC, MDA and DPCs were observed in crayfish at 96 h. There was a significant negative correlation (P < 0.01) between the levels of protein carbonyls and the activities of proPO and SP in hemocyte lysate supernatant and PO and HC in haemolymph. Carbonylated proteins may be recognized not merely as a specific signal in oxidative stress pathways but also as a "non-self" molecule in proPO-AS. In crayfish species, copper-catalyzed protein carbonylation may be one of the main mechanisms for immunity dysfunction in proPO-AS.

Fructose-Induced Carbonyl/Oxidative Stress in S. cerevisiae: Involvement of TOR. Biochem Res Int 2016; 2016:8917270.

Abstract
The TOR (target of rapamycin) signaling pathway first described in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is highly conserved in eukaryotes effector of cell growth, longevity, and stress response. TOR activation by nitrogen sources, in particular amino acids, is well studied; however its interplay with carbohydrates and carbonyl stress is poorly investigated. Fructose is a more potent glycoxidation agent capable of producing greater amounts of reactive carbonyl (RCS) and oxygen species (ROS) than glucose. The increased RCS/ROS production, as a result of glycoxidation in vivo, is supposed to be involved in carbonyl/oxidative stress, metabolic disorders, and lifespan shortening of eukaryotes. In this work we aim to expand our understanding of how TOR is involved in carbonyl/oxidative stress caused by reducing monosaccharides. It was found that in fructose-grown compared with glucose-grown cells the level of carbonyl/oxidative stress markers was higher. The defects in the TOR pathway inhibited metabolic rate and suppressed generation of glycoxidation products in fructose-grown yeast.

Homogenization of tissues via picosecond-infrared laser (PIRL) ablation: Giving a closer view on the in-vivo composition of protein species as compared to mechanical homogenization. J Proteomics 2016; 134:193-202.

Abstract
Posttranslational modifications and proteolytic processing regulate almost all physiological processes. Dysregulation can potentially result in pathologic protein species causing diseases. Thus, tissue species proteomes of diseased individuals provide diagnostic information. Since the composition of tissue proteomes can rapidly change during tissue homogenization by the action of enzymes released from their compartments, disease specific protein species patterns can vanish. Recently, we described a novel, ultrafast and soft method for cold vaporization of tissue via desorption by impulsive vibrational excitation (DIVE) using a picosecond-infrared-laser (PIRL). Given that DIVE extraction may provide improved access to the original composition of protein species in tissues, we compared the proteome composition of tissue protein homogenates after DIVE homogenization with conventional homogenizations. A higher number of intact protein species was observed in DIVE homogenates. Due to the ultrafast transfer of proteins from tissues via gas phase into frozen condensates of the aerosols, intact protein species were exposed to a lesser extent to enzymatic degradation reactions compared with conventional protein extraction. In addition, total yield of the number of proteins is higher in DIVE homogenates, because they are very homogenous and contain almost no insoluble particles, allowing direct analysis with subsequent analytical methods without the necessity of centrifugation. Biological significance Enzymatic protein modifications during tissue homogenization are responsible for changes of the in-vivo protein species composition. Cold vaporization of tissues by PIRL-DIVE is comparable with taking a snapshot at the time of the laser irradiation of the dynamic changes that occur continuously under in-vivo conditions. At that time point all biomolecules are transferred into an aerosol, which is immediately frozen.
