Abstract
Uric acid is an adequate and endogenous probe for identifying reactive oxygen or nitrogen species generated in vivo because its oxidation products are specific to reacted reactive oxygen or nitrogen species. Recently, we identified 5-N-carboxyimino-6-N-chloroaminopyrimidine-2,4(3H)-dione as a hypochlorite-specific oxidation product. 5-N-carboxyimino-6-N-chloroaminopyrimidine-2,4(3H)-dione was anticipated to be a biomarker for hypochlorite production in vivo. However, while it was stable in aqueous solution at weak acidic and alkaline pH (6.0-8.0), it was unstable in human plasma. In this study, we found that 5-N-carboxyimino-6-N-chloroaminopyrimidine-2,4(3H)-dione rapidly reacted with thiol compounds such as cysteine and glutathione to yield 5-N-carboxyimino-6-aminopyrimidine-2,4(3H)-dione, which was stable in human plasma unlike 5-N-carboxyimino-6-N-chloroaminopyrimidine-2,4(3H)-dione. 5-N-carboxyimino-6-aminopyrimidine-2,4(3H)-dione was produced upon uric acid degradation during myeloperoxidase-induced uric acid oxidation and lipopolysaccharide-induced pseudo-inflammation in collected 2,4(3H)-dione has potential as a marker for hypochlorite production in vivo.

Abstract
The heme peroxidase family generates a battery of oxidants both for synthetic purposes, and in the innate immune defence against pathogens. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is the most promiscuous family member, generating powerful oxidizing species including hypochlorous acid (HOCl). Whilst HOCl formation is important in pathogen removal, this species is also implicated in host tissue damage and multiple inflammatory diseases. Significant oxidant formation and damage occurs extracellularly as a result of MPO release via phagolysosomal leakage, cell lysis, extracellular trap formation, and inappropriate trafficking. MPO binds strongly to extracellular biomolecules including polyanionic glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans, proteins, and DNA. This localizes MPO and subsequent damage, at least partly, to specific sites and species, including extracellular matrix (ECM) components and plasma proteins/lipoproteins. Biopolymer-bound MPO retains, or has enhanced, catalytic activity, though evidence is also available for non-catalytic effects. These interactions, particularly at cell surfaces and with the ECM/glycocalyx induce cellular dysfunction and altered gene expression. MPO binds with higher affinity to some damaged ECM components, rationalizing its accumulation at sites of inflammation. MPO-damaged biomolecules and fragments act as chemo-attractants and cell activators, and can modulate gene and protein expression in naïve cells, consistent with an increasing cycle of MPO adhesion, activity, damage, and altered cell function at sites of leukocyte infiltration and activation, with subsequent tissue damage and dysfunction. MPO levels are used clinically both diagnostically and prognostically, and there is increasing interest in strategies to prevent MPO-mediated damage; therapeutic aspects are not discussed as these have been reviewed elsewhere.

Abstract
Optical imaging-guided photodynamic therapy (PDT), with precise localization and non-invasive treatment of tumors, is an emerging technique with great potential for cancer therapy. However, impaired by tissue auto-fluorescence that causes low signal-to-background ratio (SBR), most fluorescence imaging systems show poor sensitivity to tumors in vivo. In this study, we synthesized organic nanoparticles (ONPs) with persistent luminescence and good biocompatibility for afterglow imaging-guided PDT. The ONPs displayed near-infrared light emission with half-life time at minute level, which offered high SBR and good tissue penetration for in vivo afterglow tumor imaging. Taking advantage of their abundant singlet oxygen generation by NIR laser irradiation guided to the tumor sites, the ONPs also enabled imaging-guided PDT for efficient suppression of tumor growth in mice with minimal damage to major organs.

Abstract
Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is involved in numerous cellular processes, such as pathogen response, immune regulation, and anti-inflammation. Consequently, the development of HOCl detection at the cellular level has been an important issue in investigating the dynamic distributions of HOCl. Herein, a fluorescent probe, Lyso-NA, containing a HOCl-reactive aminophenol group and a lysosomal-targeting morpholine group, has been effectively designed for detecting lysosomal HOCl. The reaction of Lyso-NA with HOCl induces the oxidation of aminophenol and accompanied by a 136-fold fluorescence enhancement. The detection limit is found at 13 nM. The fluorescence enhancement is accomplished through the suppression of twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT). With morpholine, the probe Lyso-NA shows the great lysosomal targetable ability for imaging endogenous lysosomal HOCl in living cells and tissues by two-photon microscopy, providing an opportunity to monitor HOCl in the lysosomes for understanding its biological functions.

Abstract
Significance: The release of myeloperoxidase (MPO) by activated leukocytes is critical in innate immune responses. MPO produces hypochlorous acid (HOCl) and other strong oxidants, which kill bacteria and other invading pathogens. However, MPO also drives the development of numerous chronic inflammatory pathologies, including atherosclerosis, neurodegenerative disease, lung disease, arthritis, cancer, and kidney disease, which are globally responsible for significant patient mortality and morbidity. Recent Advances: The development of imaging approaches to precisely identify the localization of MPO and the molecular targets of HOCl in vivo is an important advance, as typically the involvement of MPO in inflammatory disease has been inferred by its presence, together with the detection of biomarkers of HOCl, in biological fluids or diseased tissues. This will provide valuable information in regard to the cell types responsible for releasing MPO in vivo, together with new insight into potential therapeutic opportunities. Critical Issues: Although there is little doubt as to the value of MPO inhibition as a protective strategy to mitigate tissue damage during chronic inflammation in experimental models, the impact of long-term inhibition of MPO as a therapeutic strategy for human disease remains uncertain, in light of the potential effects on innate immunity. Future Directions: The development of more targeted MPO inhibitors or a treatment regimen designed to reduce MPO-associated host tissue damage without compromising pathogen killing by the innate immune system is therefore an important future direction. Similarly, a partial MPO inhibition strategy may be sufficient to maintain adequate bacterial activity while decreasing the propagation of inflammatory pathologies.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide (O2-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) can be photochemically generated in aerobic waters containing natural organic matters (NOM) such as humic substances (HS). To investigate the effect of NOM molecular composition on the kinetics and mechanism of ROS transformation, photochemical O2- generation and subsequent H2O2 production via catalyzed and uncatalyzed (bimolecular dismutation) O2- decay were examined in the presence of 14 types of HS (pH 8.0). By using chemiluminescence and colorimetric techniques, the photochemical O2- generation rate, quasi-steady-state O2- concentration, catalyzed and uncatalyzed O2- decay rates, and H2O2 production rate were found to vary significantly by factors of 72, 18, 14, 320, and 7.7, respectively, depending on the type of HS and degree of photolysis. For more than half of the HS samples, both uncatalyzed and catalyzed reductive decay of photogenerated O2- were significantly involved in H2O2 generation, and their rates were comparable to those for O2- oxidative decay in which H2O2 is not generated. These results suggest that the chemical quality of HS influenced the H2O2 generation pathway. Correlation analyses indicated that rate constants associated with HS-mediated photochemical O2- and H2O2 generation are significantly correlated with HS molecular composition including total and aromatic C contents. In particular, practical indices representing NOM aromaticity including specific ultraviolet absorbance (SUVA) can be useful for predicting NOM-mediated ROS generation and decay kinetics. Overall, the present work suggests that NOM concentration and its quality influence NOM-mediated ROS dynamics in aqueous systems.

Abstract
NADPH oxidases (NOX) are superoxide anion radical (O(2)(-•))-generating enzymes. They form a family of seven members, each with a specific tissue distribution. They function as electron transport chains across membranes, using NADPH as electron donor to reduce molecular oxygen to O(2)(-•). NOX have multiple biological functions, ranging from host defense to inflammation and cellular signaling. Measuring NOX activity is crucial in understanding the roles of these enzymes in physiology and pathology. Many of the methods used to measure NOX activity are based on the detection of small molecules that react with NOX-generated O(2)(-•) or its direct dismutation product hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) to form fluorescent, luminescent, or colored products. Initial techniques were developed to measure the activity of the phagocyte isoform NOX2 during the oxidative burst of stimulated polymorphonuclear leukocytes, which generate large quantities of O(2)(-•). However, other members of the NOX family generate much less O(2)(-•) and hence H(2)O(2), and their activity is difficult to distinguish from other sources of these reactive species. In addition, O(2)(-•) and H(2)O(2) are reactive molecules and most probes are prone to artifacts and therefore should be used with appropriate controls and the data carefully interpreted. This review gives an overview of current methods used to measure NOX activity and NOX-derived O(2)(-•) and H(2)O(2) in cells, tissues, isolated systems, and living organisms, describing the advantages and caveats of many established methods with emphasis on more recent technologies and future perspectives.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are part of the weapons used by the immune system to kill and degrade infecting microorganisms. Bacteria can produce macromolecules, such as polysaccharides, that are able to scavenge ROS. Species belonging to the Burkholderia cepacia complex are involved in serious lung infection in cystic fibrosis patients and produce a characteristic polysaccharide, cepacian. The interaction between ROS and bacterial polysaccharides was first investigated by killing experiments, where bacteria cells were incubated with sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) with and without prior incubation with cepacian. The results showed that the polysaccharide had a protective effect towards bacterial cells. Cepacian was then treated with different concentrations of NaClO and the course of reactions was followed by means of capillary viscometry. The degradation products were characterised by size-exclusion chromatography, NMR and mass spectrometry. The results showed that hypochlorite depolymerised cepacian, removed side chains and O-acetyl groups, but did not cleave the glycosidic bond between glucuronic acid and rhamnose. The structure of some oligomers produced by NaClO oxidation is reported.

Abstract
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a major protein constituent of the primary granules of vertebrate neutrophils. It catalyses the hydrogen peroxide-mediated oxidation of halide ions to hypohalous acids, especially HOCl. These reactive oxygen species can participate in a variety of secondary reactions, leading to modifications of amino acids and many types of biological macromolecules. The classic paradigm views MPO as a component of the phagocyte oxygen-dependent intracellular microbicidal system, and thus an important arm of the effector phase of innate immune responses. However, the limited immunodeficiency associated with lack of MPO in mouse and human models has challenged this paradigm. In this review we examine more recent information on the interaction between MPO, its bioreactive reaction products, and targets within the inflammatory microenvironment. We propose that two assumptions of the current model may require revisiting. First, many important targets of MPO modification are extracellular, rather than present only within the phagolysosome, such as various components of neutrophil extracellular traps. Second, we suggest that the pro-inflammatory pathological role of MPO may be a particular feature of chronic inflammation. In the physiological setting of acute neutrophil-mediated inflammation MPO may also form part of a negative feedback loop which down-regulates inflammation, limits tissue damage, and facilitates the switch from innate to adaptive immunity. This different perspective on this well-studied enzyme may usefully inform further research into its function in health and disease.

Abstract
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a heme-containing peroxidase abundantly expressed in neutrophils and to a lesser extent in monocytes. Enzymatically active MPO, together with hydrogen peroxide and chloride, produces the powerful oxidant hypochlorous acid and is a key contributor to the oxygen-dependent microbicidal activity of phagocytes. In addition, excessive generation of MPO-derived oxidants has been linked to tissue damage in many diseases, especially those characterized by acute or chronic inflammation. It has become increasingly clear that MPO exerts effects that are beyond its oxidative properties. These properties of MPO are, in many cases, independent of its catalytic activity and affect various processes involved in cell signaling and cell-cell interactions and are, as such, capable of modulating inflammatory responses. Given these diverse effects, an increased interest has emerged in the role of MPO and its downstream products in a wide range of inflammatory diseases. In this article, our knowledge pertaining to the biologic role of MPO and its downstream effects and mechanisms of action in health and disease is reviewed and discussed.

Abstract
A marked increase in interest has occurred over the last few years in the role that mammalian heme peroxidase enzymes, primarily myeloperoxidase, eosinophil peroxidase, and lactoperoxidase, may play in both disease prevention and human pathologies. This increased interest has been sparked by developments in our understanding of polymorphisms that control the levels of these enzymes, a greater understanding of the basic chemistry and biochemistry of the oxidants formed by these species, the development of specific biomarkers that can be used in vivo to detect damage induced by these oxidants, the detection of active forms of these peroxidases at most, if not all, sites of inflammation, and a correlation between the levels of these enzymes and a number of major human pathologies. This article reviews recent developments in our understanding of the enzymology, chemistry, biochemistry and biologic roles of mammalian peroxidases and the oxidants that they generate, the potential role of these oxidants in human disease, and the use of the levels of these enzymes in disease prognosis.

Abstract
A reaction path including transition states is generated for the Dowd mechanism [P. Dowd, R. Hershlne, S.W. Ham, S. Naganathan. Vitamin K and energy transduction: a base strength amplification mechanism. Science 269 (2005) 1684-1691] of action for Vitamin K carboxylase (VKC) using quantum chemical methods (B3LYP/6-311G**). VKC, an essential enzyme in mammalian systems, catalyzes the conversion of hydroquinone form of Vitamin K to the epoxide form in the presence of oxygen. An intermediate species of the oxidation of Vitamin K, an alkoxide, acts apparently to abstract the gamma hydrogen from specifically located glutamate residues. We are able to follow the Dowd proposed path to generate this alkoxide species. The geometries of the proposed model intermediates and transition states in the mechanism are energy optimized. We find that the most energetic step in the mechanism is the uni-deprotonation of the hydroquinone - once this occurs, there is only a small barrier of 3.5kcal/mol for the interaction of oxygen with the carbon to be attacked - and then the reaction proceeds downhill in free energy to form the critical alkoxide species. The results are consistent with the idea that the enzyme probably acts to facilitate the formation of the epoxide by reducing the energy required to deprotonate the hydroquinone form.

Abstract
In the present work, the generation mechanism of reactive oxygen species (ROS) on calcium peroxide (CaO(2)) was studied. A very intense chemiluminescence (CL) signal was observed when adding an aqueous solution of luminol or 2-methyl-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3,7-dihydroimidazo[1,2alpha]-pyrazin-3-one hydrochloride (MCLA) to a suspension of CaO(2). The ROS released on CaO(2) were thought to be oxidizing agents leading to CL, and were characterized by CL, UV-visible (UV-vis) spectra and the effective scavengers of the special ROS. From experimental results, the hydroxyl (.OH) and superoxide (.O(2) (-)) radicals were suggested to exist on the surface of CaO(2). A reaction scheme for the formation of the ROS on CaO(2) was also proposed and discussed. Of more interest was the finding that the CaO(2) which released the .OH and .O(2) (-) on the surface exhibited good transition properties compared with alkaline-earth metal peroxides of the same group (MgO(2), BaO(2)).

Abstract
Singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) is the most important cytotoxic agent in photodynamic therapy (PDT). The feasibility of using a chemiluminescence (CL) probe, 3,7-dihydro-6-[4-(2-(N'-(5-fluoresceinyl)thioureido)ethoxy)phenyl]-2-methylimidazo{1,2-a}pyrazin-3-one sodium salt (fluoresceinyl Cypridina luciferin analog, FCLA), to monitor (1)O(2) production during PDT is evaluated in vitro. Lymphoma cells were treated with various protocols of PDT. The results show that the FCLA-CL production during PDT is linearly related to the corresponding cytotoxicity, regardless of the treatment protocol. With minimum cytotoxicity and interference to the PDT treatment outcome, the FCLA-CL system is an effective means to quantify PDT (1)O(2) production and may provide an alternative real-time dosimeter.

Abstract
A microscope is described in which singlet molecular oxygen, O2(a1deltag), is produced in a femtoliter focal volume via a nonlinear two-photon photosensitized process, and the 1270 nm phosphorescence from this population of O2(a1deltag) is detected in a photon counting experiment. Although two-photon excitation of a sensitizer is less efficient than excitation by a one-photon process, nonlinear excitation has several distinct advantages with respect to the spatial resolution accessible. Pertinent aspects of this two-photon O2(a1deltag) microscope were characterized using bulk solutions of photosensitizers. These data were compared to those obtained from a single biological cell upon linear one-photon excitation of a sensitizer incorporated in the cell. On the basis of the results obtained, we outline the challenges of using nonlinear optical techniques to create O2(aldeltag) at the single cell level and to then optically detect the O2(aldeltag) thus produced in a time-resolved experiment.

Abstract
Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are highly specialized for their primary function, the phagocytosis and destruction of microorganisms. When coated with opsonins (generally complement and/or antibody), microorganisms bind to specific receptors on the surface of the phagocyte and invagination of the cell membrane occurs with the incorporation of the microorganism into an intracellular phagosome. There follows a burst of oxygen consumption, and much, if not all, of the extra oxygen consumed is converted to highly reactive oxygen species. In addition, the cytoplasmic granules discharge their contents into the phagosome, and death of the ingested microorganism soon follows. Among the antimicrobial systems formed in the phagosome is one consisting of myeloperoxidase (MPO), released into the phagosome during the degranulation process, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), formed by the respiratory burst and a halide, particularly chloride. The initial product of the MPO-H2O2-chloride system is hypochlorous acid, and subsequent formation of chlorine, chloramines, hydroxyl radicals, singlet oxygen, and ozone has been proposed. These same toxic agents can be released to the outside of the cell, where they may attack normal tissue and thus contribute to the pathogenesis of disease. This review will consider the potential sources of H2O2 for the MPO-H2O2-halide system; the toxic products of the MPO system; the evidence for MPO involvement in the microbicidal activity of neutrophils; the involvement of MPO-independent antimicrobial systems; and the role of the MPO system in tissue injury. It is concluded that the MPO system plays an important role in the microbicidal activity of phagocytes.

Abstract
Human neutrophils are short-lived cells that play important roles in host defense and acute inflammation by releasing hydrolytic and cytotoxic proteins and reactive oxygen derivatives. Apoptosis, a physiological mechanism for cell death, regulates both production and survival of neutrophils, representing a basic biological mechanism for this type of cells. Carotenoids may react with toxic oxygen metabolites released by neutrophils to form a multitude of carotenoid cleavage products that exert, in turn, relevant prooxidative biological effects. Recent data suggest that carotenoid oxidation products may affect neutrophil viability and function by exerting proapoptotic activity and interfering with superoxide production by activated cells. The prooxidant and proapoptotic activities of carotenoid oxidation products could account, at least in some cases, for the procancerogenic properties of carotenoid rich diet.

Abstract
The lowest excited electronic state of molecular oxygen, singlet molecular oxygen (a1Deltag), is an intermediate in many chemical and biological processes. Tools and methods have been developed to create singlet-oxygen-based optical images of heterogeneous samples that range from phase-separated polymers to biological cells. Such images provide unique insight into a variety of oxygen-dependent phenomena, including the photoinitiated death of cells.
