Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the modern era, the incidence and prognostic implications of acute renal failure (ARF) are unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS With a retrospective analysis of the Mayo Clinic PCI registry, we determined the incidence of, risk factors for, and prognostic implications of ARF (defined as an increase in serum creatinine [Cr] >0.5 mg/dL from baseline) after PCI. Of 7586 patients, 254 (3.3%) experienced ARF. Among patients with baseline Cr <2.0, the risk of ARF was higher among diabetic than nondiabetic patients, whereas among those with a baseline Cr >2.0, all had a significant risk of ARF. In multivariate analysis, ARF was associated with baseline serum Cr, acute myocardial infarction, shock, and volume of contrast medium administered. Twenty-two percent of patients with ARF died during the index hospitalization compared with only 1.4% of patients without ARF (P<0.0001). After adjustment, ARF remained strongly associated with death. Among hospital survivors with ARF, 1- and 5-year estimated mortality rates were 12.1% and 44.6%, respectively, much greater than the 3.7% and 14.5% mortality rates in patients without ARF (P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS The overall incidence of ARF after PCI is low. Diabetic patients with baseline Cr values <2.0 mg/dL are at higher risk than nondiabetic patients, whereas all patients with a serum Cr >2.0 are at high risk for ARF. ARF was highly correlated with death during the index hospitalization and after dismissal.

Abstract
Saliva is armed with various defense mechanisms, such as the immunological and enzymatic defense systems. In addition, saliva has the ability to protect the mucosa against mechanical insults and to promote its healing via the activity of epidermal growth factor. However, another defense mechanism, the antioxidant system, exists in saliva and seems to be of paramount importance. The most interesting finding of the present study was the demonstration of the existence of much higher concentrations of the various salivary molecular and enzymatic antioxidant parameters in the parotid saliva compared with the submandibular/sublingual saliva. For example, peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, uric acid, and total antioxidant status were higher in resting parotid saliva compared with resting submandibular/sublingual saliva by 2405, 235, 245, and 147%, respectively. Another important finding was the distinction between the salivary antioxidant system and the immunological and enzymatic protective systems, as represented by the salivary concentrations of secretory IgA and lysozyme, respectively. These findings suggest that the profound antioxidant capacity of saliva secreted from parotid glands is related either to the different physiological demands related to eating (parotid predominance), to oral integrity maintenance (submandibular/sublingual predominance), or to the high content of deleterious redox-active transitional metal ions present in parotid saliva. This also may signify that our oral cavity environment is only partially protected against oxidative stress during most of the day and night.

Abstract
Oxidation of SCN(-) in acidic media by a deficiency of aqueous chlorine generates a transient UV absorption feature in less than 3 ms. This intermediate has the same spectral and kinetic features as were found in prior studies of the oxidation of SCN(-) by H(2)O(2) or ClO(2). The UV absorbance increases strongly with increasing concentration of SCN(-) but not with increasing [H(+)]. These observations are evidence that (SCN)(2) and (SCN)(3)(-) both contribute to the absorbance and are in equilibrium with each other. Values of the corresponding molar absorptivities and the equilibrium constant are derived. Hydrolysis of (SCN)(2) to HOSCN is shown to have a small equilibrium constant.

Abstract
Radiocontrast nephropathy may in part be mediated by generation of reactive oxygen species causing direct toxic damage to renal tubular epithelial cell and renal medullary ischemia. Data from experimental studies indicated that antioxidants, eg, acetylcysteine, may prevent radiocontrast-induced nephropathy. Recently, one prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled study in patients with moderate renal insufficiency confirmed that the prophylactic oral administration of acetylcysteine at a dose of 600 mg twice daily along with hydration prevents the reduction in renal function by a nonionic, low-osmolality radiocontrast agent.

Abstract
Clinical Pearls Each of these special features conveys an idea, concept, or fact that may be useful in your pharmaceutical practice, but may not be widely known, published, or taught. An 84-year-old male with a history of chronic renal failure secondary to nephrectomy and chronic hypertension was admitted for elective coronary angiography following complaints of midsternal chest pain and an abnormal thallium stress test. The patient was found to have other risk factors for radiographic-contrast-media-induced nephropathy, including hyponatremia and hypoalbuminemia. Mild volume expansion was initiated and acetylcysteine 600 mg was administered orally every 12 hours on the day before the procedure. The patient's baseline serum creatinine was found to be 2 mg/dL. A total of 125 mL of nonionic, low-osmolality contrast media was infused during the procedure. An additional two doses of acetylcysteine 600 mg were administered on the day of the procedure. The patient's recovery was uneventful and he was discharged. The postprocedure serum creatinine was stable at 2 mg/dL 48 hours after the procedure. It appears that orally administered acetylcysteine can prevent radiographic-contrast-media-induced nephropathy.

Abstract
Although the pseudohalide thiocyanate (SCN(-)) is the preferred substrate for eosinophil peroxidase (EPO) in fluids of physiologic halide composition, the product(s) of this reaction have not been directly identified, and mechanisms underlying their cytotoxic potential are poorly characterized. We used nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, and quantitative chemical analysis to identify the principal reaction products of both the EPO/SCN(-)/H(2)O(2) system and activated eosinophils as roughly equimolar amounts of OSCN(-) (hypothiocyanite) and OCN(-) (cyanate). Red blood cells exposed to increasing concentrations of OSCN(-)/OCN(-) are first depleted of glutathione, after which glutathione S-transferase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase then ATPases undergo sulfhydryl (SH) reductant-reversible inactivation before lysing. OSCN(-)/OCN(-) inactivates red blood cell membrane ATPases 10-1000 times more potently than do HOCl, HOBr, and H(2)O(2). Exposure of glutathione S-transferase to [(14)C]OSCN(-)/OCN(-) causes SH reductant-reversible disulfide bonding and covalent isotope labeling. We propose that EPO/SCN(-)/H(2)O(2) reaction products comprise a potential SH-targeted cytotoxic system that functions in striking contrast to HOCl, the highly but relatively indiscriminantly reactive product of the neutrophil myeloperoxidase system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Radiographic contrast agents can cause a reduction in renal function that may be due to reactive oxygen species. Whether the reduction can be prevented by the administration of antioxidants is unknown. METHODS We prospectively studied 83 patients with chronic renal insufficiency (mean [+/-SD] serum creatinine concentration, 2.4+/-1.3 mg per deciliter [216+/-116 micromol per liter]) who were undergoing computed tomography with a nonionic, low-osmolality contrast agent. Patients were randomly assigned either to receive the antioxidant acetylcysteine (600 mg orally twice daily) and 0.45 percent saline intravenously, before and after administration of the contrast agent, or to receive placebo and saline. RESULTS Ten of the 83 patients (12 percent) had an increase of at least 0.5 mg per deciliter (44 micromol per liter) in the serum creatinine concentration 48 hours after administration of the contrast agent: 1 of the 41 patients in the acetylcysteine group (2 percent) and 9 of the 42 patients in the control group (21 percent; P=0.01; relative risk, 0.1; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.02 to 0.9). In the acetylcysteine group, the mean serum creatinine concentration decreased significantly (P<0.001), from 2.5+/-1.3 to 2.1+/-1.3 mg per deciliter (220+/-118 to 186+/-112 micromol per liter) 48 hours after the administration of the contrast medium, whereas in the control group, the mean serum creatinine concentration increased nonsignificantly (P=0.18), from 2.4+/-1.3 to 2.6+/-1.5 mg per deciliter (212+/-114 to 226+/-133 micromol per liter) (P<0.001 for the comparison between groups). CONCLUSIONS Prophylactic oral administration of the antioxidant acetylcysteine, along with hydration, prevents the reduction in renal function induced by contrast agents in patients with chronic renal insufficiency.

Abstract
The putative role of singlet oxygen (1O2) in the respiratory burst of neutrophils has remained elusive due to the lack of reliable means to study its quantitative production. To measure 1O2 directly from biological or chemical reactions in the near infrared region, we have developed a highly sensitive detection system which employs two InGaAs/InP pin photodiodes incorporated with a dual charge integrating amplifier circuit. Using this detection system, we detected light emission derived from a myeloperoxidase (MPO)-mediated reaction in physiological conditions: pH 7.4, 1-30 nM MPO, 10-100 microM H2O2 and 100-130 mM CI in place of Br without the use of deuterium oxide. The MNPO-H2O2-CI(-) system exhibited a single emission peak at 1.27 microm with a spectral distribution identical to that of delta singlet oxygen. Our results suggest physiological production of 1O2 in the MPO-H2O2-CI(-) system at an intravacuolar neutral pH. The MPO-mediated generation of 1O2, which may have an important role in host defense mechanisms, is discussed in connection with previous results.

Abstract
The neutrophil enzyme myeloperoxidase uses H2O2 to oxidize chloride, bromide, iodide and thiocyanate to their respective hypohalous acids. Chloride is considered to be the physiological substrate. However, a detailed kinetic study of its substrate preference has not been undertaken. Our aim was to establish whether myeloperoxidase oxidizes thiocyanate in the presence of chloride at physiological concentrations of these substrates. We determined this by measuring the rate of H2O2 loss in reactions catalysed by the enzyme at various concentrations of each substrate. The relative specificity constants for chloride, bromide and thiocyanate were 1:60:730 respectively, indicating that thiocyanate is by far the most favoured substrate for myeloperoxidase. In the presence of 100 mM chloride, myeloperoxidase catalysed the production of hypothiocyanite at concentrations of thiocyanate as low as 25 microM. With 100 microM thiocyanate, about 50% of the H2O2 present was converted into hypothiocyanite, and the rate of hypohalous acid production equalled the sum of the individual rates obtained when each of these anions was present alone. The rate of H2O2 loss catalysed by myeloperoxidase in the presence of 100 mM chloride doubled when 100 microM thiocyanate was added, and was maximal with 1mM thiocyanate. This indicates that at plasma concentrations of thiocyanate and chloride, myeloperoxidase is far from saturated. We conclude that thiocyanate is a major physiological substrate of myeloperoxidase, regardless of where the enzyme acts. As a consequence, more consideration should be given to the oxidation products of thiocyanate and to the role they play in host defence and inflammation.

Abstract
Involvement of peroxynitrite (ONOO-) in inflammatory diseases has been implicated by detection of 3-nitrotyrosine, an allegedly characteristic protein oxidation product, in various inflamed tissues. We show here that nitrite (NO2-), the primary metabolic end product of nitric oxide (NO.), can be oxidized by the heme peroxidases horseradish peroxidase, myeloperoxidase (MPO), and lactoperoxidase (LPO), in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), to most likely form NO.2, which can also contribute to tyrosine nitration during inflammatory processes. Phenolic nitration by MPO-catalyzed NO2- oxidation is only partially inhibited by chloride (Cl-), the presumed major physiological substrate for MPO. In fact, low concentrations of NO2- (2-10 microM) catalyze MPO-mediated oxidation of Cl-, indicated by increased chlorination of monochlorodimedon or 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, most likely via reduction of MPO compound II. Peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of NO2-, as indicated by phenolic nitration, was also observed in the presence of thiocyanate (SCN-), an alternative physiological substrate for mammalian peroxidases. Collectively, our results suggest that NO2-, at physiological or pathological levels, is a substrate for the mammalian peroxidases MPO and lactoperoxidase and that formation of NO2. via peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of NO2- may provide an additional pathway contributing to cytotoxicity or host defense associated with increased NO. production.

Abstract
Products formed from the lactoperoxidase (LPO) catalyzed oxidation of thiocyanate ion (SCN-) with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) have been studied by 13C-NMR at pH 6 and pH 7. Ultimate formation of hypothiocyanite ion (OSCN-) as the major product correlates well with the known optical studies. The oxidation rate of SCN- appears to be greater at pH < or = 6.0. At [H2O2]/[SCN-] ratios of < or = 0.5, OSCN- is not formed immediately, but an unidentified intermediate is produced. At [H2O2]/[SCN-] > 0.5, SCN- appears to be directly oxidized to OSCN-. Once formed, OSCN- slowly degrades over a period of days to carbon dioxide (CO2), bicarbonate ion (HCO3-), and hydrogen cyanide (HCN). An additional, previously unrecognized product also appears after formation of OSCN-. On the basis of carbon-13 chemical shift information this new species is suggested to result from rearrangement of OSCN- to yield the thiooxime isomer, SCNO- or SCNOH.

Abstract
Acute renal failure following hemorrhagic shock was studied in awake rats. The animals were bled to maintain the mean arterial blood pressure between 40 and 60 mm Hg during 180 min. After this period, the blood was reinfused and the rats were studied 24 h later. Hemorrhagic shock caused a less intensive renal injury than 60-min bilateral renal artery clamping. Renal function in the latter model was worse (p less than 0.05) as shown by serum creatinine (SCr) (0.75 +/- 0.10 vs 1.2 +/- 0.2 mg/dL), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (26.0 +/- 2.8 vs 53.0 +/- 8.5 mg/dL), fractional excretion of sodium (FENa, %) (0.3 +/- 0.1 vs 1.8 +/- 1.0) and potassium (FEK, %) (41.4 +/- 5.7 vs 76.3 +/- 14.2) and urine/plasma creatine (U/PCr (86.4 +/- 15.7 vs 38.8 +/- 15.5). The rats which received verapamil (10 micrograms/kg/min) prior and during the HS did not show increase in SCr (0.5 +/- 0.06 vs 0.75 +/- 0.1 mg/dL, p less than 0.05). This effect was also observed in the rats which received intravenous allopurinol (40 mg/kg) before HS, SCr did not increase (0.5 +/- 0.04 vs 0.75 +/- 0.1 mg/dL, p = 0.05), suggesting a protective effect of those substances in HS.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Oxidant injury has been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory, metabolic and toxic insults, in ischemic-reperfusion injury, and in carcinogenesis, aging and atherosclerosis. Oxidant injury is initiated by free radicals and reactive oxygen molecules which are generated by activated neutrophils, monocytes, and mesangial cells, during normal and abnormal metabolic processes, and from the metabolism of exogenous drugs and toxins. When cells and organs are exposed to oxidant stress, several different antioxidant defense mechanisms operate to prevent or limit oxidant injury. When antioxidant defense mechanisms are decreased, or when the generation of reactive oxygen molecules is increased, oxidant injury results from the shift in the oxidant/antioxidant balance. Oxidant-induced alterations of proteins, membranes, DNA, and basement membranes leads to cell and organ dysfunction. Several renal diseases including glomerulonephritis, vasculitis, toxic nephropathies, pyelonephritis, acute renal failure, and others are likely to be mediated at least in part by oxidant injury. In the future, mechanisms to decrease the generation of reactive oxygen molecules and/or antioxidant therapy may develop into new avenues of therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
The purposes of this study were to determine the pH dependence of lethal endothelial cell injury during oxidative stress and the pH dependence of those cellular mechanisms proposed to result in endothelial cell killing. Oxidative stress was produced in rat liver sinusoidal endothelial cells with H2O2 (5 mmol/L). Cell survival was dependent on the extracellular pH. Indeed, after 180 min of incubation with H2O2, cell survival was only 27% at pH 7.4, 45% at pH 6.8 (p less than 0.05) and 62% at pH 6.4 (p less than 0.05). Despite improved cell survival at pH 6.4 compared with pH 7.4, the magnitude of ATP hydrolysis and glutathione depletion was similar. In contrast to cell survival, lipid peroxidation as measured by malondialdehyde generation was increased twofold at pH 6.4 compared with pH 7.4. A rapid and profound loss of the mitochondrial membrane potential occurred during oxidative stress at pH 7.4 that was delayed at pH 6.4 (0.3% vs. 20% of the initial value at 30 min, p less than 0.0001). After 60 min of incubation with H2O2, NAD(P)H oxidation was greater at pH 7.4 than at pH 6.4 (100% vs. 64%, p less than 0.05). The results indicate that the protective effect of acidosis against cell death during oxidative stress is associated with the inhibition of NAD(P)H oxidation and delayed loss of the mitochondrial membrane potential. Acidosis appears to maintain organelle and cell integrity during oxidative stress by influencing the redox status of NAD(P)H.
