Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD), the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer’s disease, commonly occurs in the elderly population, causing a significant medical and economic burden to the aging society worldwide. At present, there are few effective methods that achieve satisfactory clinical results in the treatment of PD. Platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs) and platelet-derived growth factor receptors (PDGFRs) are important neurotrophic factors that are expressed in various cell types. Their unique structures allow for specific binding that can effectively regulate vital functions in the nervous system. In this review, we summarized the possible mechanisms by which PDGFs/PDGFRs regulate the occurrence and development of PD by affecting oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, protein folding and aggregation, Ca2+ homeostasis, and cell neuroinflammation. These modes of action mainly depend on the type and distribution of PDGFs in different nerve cells. We also summarized the possible clinical applications and prospects for PDGF in the treatment of PD, especially in genetic treatment. Recent advances have shown that PDGFs have contradictory roles within the central nervous system (CNS). Although they exert neuroprotective effects through multiple pathways, they are also associated with the disruption of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). Our recommendations based on our findings include further investigation of the contradictory neurotrophic and neurotoxic effects of the PDGFs acting on the CNS.

Abstract
Loss of endothelial function is a common feature to all cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). One of the risk factors associated with the development of CVDs is the hyperglycaemia that occurs in patients with metabolic disorders such as Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Hyperglycaemia causes endothelial dysfunction through increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) from different cellular sources leading to oxidative stress. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is essential in the stimulation and maintenance of endothelial functional aspects and, although it can mitigate the impact of ROS, VEGF-mediated signalling is partially inhibited in diabetes mellitus. The search for therapeutic strategies that preserve, protect and improve the functions of the endothelium is of great relevance in the investigation of CVDs associated with hyperglycaemia. Platelet-derived growth factor C (PDGF-C) is a peptide with angiogenic properties, independent of VEGF, that stimulates angiogenesis and revascularization of ischemic tissue. In a diabetic mouse model, PDGF-C stimulates mature endothelial cell migration, angiogenesis, endothelial progenitor cell mobilization, and increased neovascularization, and protects blood vessels in a retinal degeneration model activating anti-apoptosis and proliferation signalling pathways in endothelial cells. This review summarizes the information on the damage that high d-glucose causes on endothelial function and the beneficial effects that PDGF-CC could exert in this condition.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson and Alzheimer, are among the main public health issues in the world due to their effects on life quality and high mortality rates. Although neuronal death is the main cause of disruption in the central nervous system (CNS) elicited by these pathologies, other cells such as astrocytes are also affected. There is no treatment for preventing the cellular death during neurodegenerative processes, and current drug therapy is focused on decreasing the associated motor symptoms. For these reasons, it has been necessary to seek new therapeutical procedures, including the use of growth factors to reduce α-synuclein toxicity and misfolding in order to recover neuronal cells and astrocytes. Additionally, it has been shown that some growth factors are able to reduce the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are associated with neuronal death through activation of antioxidative enzymes such as catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and neuroglobin. In the present review, we discuss the use of growth factors such as PDGF-BB, VEGF, BDNF, and the antioxidative enzyme neuroglobin in the protection of astrocytes and neurons during the development of neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
There are numerous extra- and intra-cellular processes involved in the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Augmented ROS generation can cause the damage of biomolecules such as proteins, nucleic acid and lipids. ROS act as an intracellular signaling component and is associated with various inflammatory responses, chronic arthropathies, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It is well documented that ROS can activate different signaling pathways having a vital importance in the patho-physiology of RA. Hence, understanding of the molecular pathways and their interaction might be advantageous in the development of novel therapeutic approaches for RA.

Mechanisms of activation of the transcription factor Nrf2 by redox stressors, nutrient cues, and energy status and the pathways through which it attenuates degenerative disease. Free Radic Biol Med 2015; 88:108-146. [PMID: 26122708 PMCID: PMC4659505 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2015.06.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 593] [Impact Index Per Article: 65.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2015] [Revised: 06/09/2015] [Accepted: 06/10/2015] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
UNLABELLED Nuclear factor-erythroid 2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2) regulates the basal and stress-inducible expression of a battery of genes encoding key components of the glutathione-based and thioredoxin-based antioxidant systems, as well as aldo-keto reductase, glutathione S-transferase, and NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase-1 drug-metabolizing isoenzymes along with multidrug-resistance-associated efflux pumps. It therefore plays a pivotal role in both intrinsic resistance and cellular adaptation to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and xenobiotics. Activation of Nrf2 can, however, serve as a double-edged sword because some of the genes it induces may contribute to chemical carcinogenesis by promoting futile redox cycling of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon metabolites or confer resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs by increasing the expression of efflux pumps, suggesting its cytoprotective effects will vary in a context-specific fashion. In addition to cytoprotection, Nrf2 also controls genes involved in intermediary metabolism, positively regulating those involved in NADPH generation, purine biosynthesis, and the β-oxidation of fatty acids, while suppressing those involved in lipogenesis and gluconeogenesis. Nrf2 is subject to regulation at multiple levels. Its ability to orchestrate adaptation to oxidants and electrophiles is due principally to stress-stimulated modification of thiols within one of its repressors, the Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1), which is present in the cullin-3 RING ubiquitin ligase (CRL) complex CRLKeap1. Thus modification of Cys residues in Keap1 blocks CRLKeap1 activity, allowing newly translated Nrf2 to accumulate rapidly and induce its target genes. The ability of Keap1 to repress Nrf2 can be attenuated by p62/sequestosome-1 in a mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1)-dependent manner, thereby allowing refeeding after fasting to increase Nrf2-target gene expression. In parallel with repression by Keap1, Nrf2 is also repressed by β-transducin repeat-containing protein (β-TrCP), present in the Skp1-cullin-1-F-box protein (SCF) ubiquitin ligase complex SCFβ-TrCP. The ability of SCFβ-TrCP to suppress Nrf2 activity is itself enhanced by prior phosphorylation of the transcription factor by glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) through formation of a DSGIS-containing phosphodegron. However, formation of the phosphodegron in Nrf2 by GSK-3 is inhibited by stimuli that activate protein kinase B (PKB)/Akt. In particular, PKB/Akt activity can be increased by phosphoinositide 3-kinase and mTORC2, thereby providing an explanation of why antioxidant-responsive element-driven genes are induced by growth factors and nutrients. Thus Nrf2 activity is tightly controlled via CRLKeap1 and SCFβ-TrCP by oxidative stress and energy-based signals, allowing it to mediate adaptive responses that restore redox homeostasis and modulate intermediary metabolism. Based on the fact that Nrf2 influences multiple biochemical pathways in both positive and negative ways, it is likely its dose-response curve, in terms of susceptibility to certain degenerative disease, is U-shaped. Specifically, too little Nrf2 activity will lead to loss of cytoprotection, diminished antioxidant capacity, and lowered β-oxidation of fatty acids, while conversely also exhibiting heightened sensitivity to ROS-based signaling that involves receptor tyrosine kinases and apoptosis signal-regulating kinase-1. By contrast, too much Nrf2 activity disturbs the homeostatic balance in favor of reduction, and so may have deleterious consequences including overproduction of reduced glutathione and NADPH, the blunting of ROS-based signal transduction, epithelial cell hyperplasia, and failure of certain cell types to differentiate correctly. We discuss the basis of a putative U-shaped Nrf2 dose-response curve in terms of potentially competing processes relevant to different stages of tumorigenesis.

Abstract
Both Cluster of Differentiation 166 (CD166) and Melanoma Cell Adhesion Molecule (MCAM) play critical roles in maintaining transformative phenotype of Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) cells. However, the relationship between these two membrane proteins remains unknown. Here, we found that CD166 has a positive impact on the expression of MCAM, while MCAM has no feedback on CD166. Tissue microarray analysis (TMA) also showed a positive correlation between CD166 and MCAM. Depletion of CD166-induced anti-carcinogenic phenotype could be reversed by overexpression of MCAM, suggesting MCAM is functional important in the CD166-induced liver tumorigenesis. Furthermore, we found CD166 regulates MCAM mainly through protecting MCAM from ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation. Mechanically, CD166 down-regulated two ubiquitin E3 ligases, βTrCP and Smurf1, which play critical roles in the destability of MCAM protein. In addition, overexpression of βTrCP and Smurf1-reduced transformative phenotype could be partially reversed by MCAM, providing evidence that MCAM is a target of βTrCP and Smurf1. Moreover, we identified c-Raf/MEK/ERK signaling acts as a downstream effecter of CD166/PI3K/AKT axis to stimulate ubiquitination and destability of βTrCP and Smurf1. Taken together, we establish a model that CD166 regulates MCAM through a signaling flow from activation of PI3K/AKT and c-Raf/MEK/ERK signaling to the inhibition of potential MCAM ubiquitin E3 ligases, βTrCP and Smurf1, blockage of this signaling cascade may be useful in the treatment of CD166 and MCAM-dependent HCC.

Abstract
The adult kidney is derived from the interaction between the metanephric blastema and the ureteric bud. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor β is essential for the development of the mature glomerular tuft, as mice deficient for this receptor lack mesangial cells. This study investigated the role of Src tyrosine kinase in PDGF-mediated reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and migration of metanephric mesenchymal cells (MMCs). Cultured embryonic MMCs from wild-type and PDGF receptor-deficient embryos were established. Migration was determined via wound-healing assay. Unlike PDGF AA, PDGF BB-induced greater migration in MMCs with respect to control. This was abrogated by neutralizing an antibody to PDGF BB. Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors suppressed PDGF BB-induced migration. Conversely, mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MEK) inhibitors had no effect. Src inhibitors inhibited PDGF-induced cell migration, PI3K activity, and Akt phosphorylation. Adenoviral dominant negative Src (AD DN Src) abrogated PDGF BB-induced Akt phosphorylation. Hydrogen peroxide stimulated cell migration. PDGF BB-induced wound closure was inhibited by the antioxidants N-acetyl-l-cysteine, tiron, and the flavoprotein inhibitor diphenyleneiodonium. These cells express the NADPH oxidase homolog Nox4. Inhibiting Nox4 with antisense oligonucleotides or small interfering RNA (siRNA) suppressed PDGF-induced wound closure. Inhibition of Src with siRNA reduced PDGF BB-induced ROS generation as assessed by 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate fluorescence. Furthermore, PDGF BB-stimulated ROS generation and migration were similarly suppressed by Ad DN Src. In MMCs, PDGF BB-induced migration is mediated by PI3K and Src in a redox-dependent manner involving Nox4. Src may be upstream to PI3K and Nox4.

Abstract
The dimerization and auto-transphosphorylation of platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) upon engagement by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) activates signals promoting the mitogenic response of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) due to liver injury, thus contributing to the development of hepatic fibrosis. We demonstrate that the tyrosine phosphatases Src homology 2 domain-containing phosphatase 1 and 2 (SHP-1 and SHP-2) act as crucial regulators of a complex signaling network orchestrated by PDGFR activation in a spatio-temporal manner with diverse and opposing functions in HSCs. In fact, silencing of either phosphatase shows that SHP-2 is committed to PDGFR-mediated cell proliferation, whereas SHP-1 dephosphorylates PDGFR hence abrogating the downstream signaling pathways that result in HSC activation. In this regard, SHP-1 as an off-switch of PDGFR signaling appears to emerge as a valuable molecular target to trigger as to prevent HSC proliferation and the fibrogenic effects of HSC activation. We show that boswellic acid, a multitarget compound with potent anti-inflammatory action, exerts an anti-proliferative effect on HSCs, as in other cell models, by upregulating SHP-1 with subsequent dephosphorylation of PDGFR-β and downregulation of PDGF-dependent signaling after PDGF stimulation. Moreover, the synergism resulting from the combined use of boswellic acid and imatinib, which directly inhibits PDGFR-β activity, on activated HSCs offers new perspectives for the development of therapeutic strategies that could implement molecules affecting diverse players of this molecular circuit, thus paving the way to multi-drug low-dose regimens for liver fibrosis.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been shown to play crucial roles in regulating various cellular functions, e.g. focal adhesion (FA) dynamics and cell migration upon growth factor stimulation. However, it is not clear how ROS are regulated at subcellular FA sites to impact cell migration. We have developed a biosensor capable of monitoring ROS production at FA sites in live cells with high sensitivity and specificity, utilizing fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). The results revealed that platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) can induce ROS production at FA sites, which is mediated by Rac1 activation. In contrast, integrins, specifically integrin αvβ3, inhibits this local ROS production. The RhoA activity can mediate this inhibitory role of integrins in regulating ROS production. Therefore, PDGF and integrin αvβ3 coordinate to have an antagonistic effect in the ROS production at FA sites to regulate cell adhesion and migration.

Abstract
Resistance to endocrine therapy in breast carcinogenesis due to the redox regulation of the signal transduction system by reactive oxygen species (ROS) is the subject of this review article. Both antiestrogens and aromatase inhibitors are thought to prevent cancer through modulating the estrogen receptor function, but other mechanisms cannot be ruled out as these compounds also block metabolism and redox cycling of estrogen and are free radical scavengers. Endocrine therapeutic agents, such as, tamoxifen and other antiestrogens, and the aromatase inhibitor, exemestane, are capable of producing ROS. Aggressive breast cancer cells have high oxidative stress and chronic treatment with exemestane, fulvestrant or tamoxifen may add additional ROS stress. Breast cancer cells receiving long-term antiestrogen treatment appear to adapt to this increased persistent level of ROS. This, in turn, may lead to the disruption of reversible redox signaling that involves redox-sensitive phosphatases, protein kinases, such as, ERK and AKT, and transcription factors, such as, AP-1, NRF-1 and NF-κB. Thioredoxin modulates the expression of estrogen responsive genes through modulating the production of H2O2 in breast cancer cells. Overexpressing thioredoxine reductase 2 and reducing oxidized thioredoxin restores tamoxifen sensitivity to previously resistant breast cancer cells. In summary, it appears that resistance to endocrine therapy may be mediated, in part, by ROS-mediated dysregulation of both estrogen-dependent and estrogen-independent redox-sensitive signaling pathways. Further studies are needed to define the mechanism of action of thioredoxin modifiers, and their effect on the redox regulation that contributes to restoring the antiestrogen-mediated signal transduction system and growth inhibitory action.

Exposure of cells to hydrogen peroxide or platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) induced Akt phosphorylation and oxidation of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN). The Cys124 and Cys71 residues of PTEN were critical for the formation of a disulfide bond and the intermediate glutathionylation in the process of reduction of the disulfide bond. To determine which specific tyrosine residues of the PDGF beta receptor (PDGFβR) is involved in PDGF-induced PTEN oxidation and Akt phosphorylation, we investigated a kinase activity-deficient mutant and PDGFβR mutants where the tyrosine residues in the binding site for phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), GTPase-activating protein of Ras, Src homology 2 domain containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase-2, and phospholipase C-1 were replaced by Phe. Both PTEN oxidation and Akt phosphorylation did not occur in response to PDGF in the kinase-deficient mutant and in the PDGFβR mutant with a mutation in the PI3K binding site (Tyr740 and Tyr751). Thus, the kinase activity and the constituent Tyr740 and Tyr751 residues of PDGFβR in the cells stimulated with PDGF are responsible for the oxidation of PTEN and the Akt phosphorylation.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in numerous physiological and pathophysiological responses. Increasing evidence implicates ROS as signaling molecules involved in the propagation of cellular pathways. The NADPH oxidase (Nox) family of enzymes is a major source of ROS in the cell and has been related to the progression of many diseases and even environmental toxicity. The complexity of this family's effects on cellular processes stems from the fact that there are seven members, each with unique tissue distribution, cellular localization, and expression. Nox proteins also differ in activation mechanisms and the major ROS detected as their product. To add to this complexity, mounting evidence suggests that other cellular oxidases or their products may be involved in Nox regulation. The overall redox and metabolic status of the cell, specifically the mitochondria, also has implications on ROS signaling. Signaling of such molecules as electrophilic fatty acids has an impact on many redox-sensitive pathologies and thus, as anti-inflammatory molecules, contributes to the complexity of ROS regulation. This review is based on the proceedings of a recent international Oxidase Signaling Symposium at the University of Pittsburgh's Vascular Medicine Institute and Department of Pharmacology and Chemical Biology and encompasses further interaction and discussion among the presenters.

Clin Biochem 2009; 42:1602-9. [PMID: 19679116 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiochem.2009.08.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2009] [Revised: 07/31/2009] [Accepted: 08/01/2009] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The goal of the studies was the evaluation of platelet-stored (serum) and circulating (plasma) pools of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and the assessment of a possible application of PDGF as the disease marker. DESIGN AND METHODS Serum and plasma PDGF-BB were measured in 134 IBD patients and 81 controls and evaluated with respect to the disease status, endoscopic, inflammatory, and angiogenic activity. The diagnostic utility was evaluated using ROC analysis. RESULTS PDGF was increased exclusively in active IBD regardless the disease type and associated with its clinical and endoscopic activity. Serum- and plasma-PDGF were poorly interrelated. Plasma-PDGF better reflected oxidative stress whereas serum-PDGF reflected inflammation and angiogenesis. In multivariate analysis, platelets alone explained about 30% in the PDGF variability and seemed to mediate most of the observed relationships. CONCLUSIONS IBD is associated with the increases in platelet-stored and circulating PDGF, which correspond with the disease clinical, endoscopic, inflammatory, and angiogenic activity and IBD-associated oxidative stress. However, PDGF as an active-IBD marker was not better than currently applied C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate and platelets.

Peroxiredoxin I, platelet-derived growth factor A, and platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha are overexpressed in carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma: association with malignant transformation. Hum Pathol 2008; 40:390-7. [PMID: 18992915 DOI: 10.1016/j.humpath.2008.06.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2008] [Revised: 06/05/2008] [Accepted: 06/10/2008] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma is a rare salivary gland malignancy. It constitutes an important model for the study of carcinogenesis, as it can display the tumor in different stages of progression, from benign pleomorphic adenoma to frankly invasive carcinoma. Growth signaling pathways undergo continuous activation in human tumors, commonly as a consequence of the overexpression of ligands and receptors such as platelet-derived growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor receptor. Hydrogen peroxide is produced after platelet-derived growth factor receptor activation, and it is essential for the sequential phosphorylation cascade that drives cell proliferation and migration. By their ability to degrade hydrogen peroxide, peroxiredoxins are involved in growth factor signaling regulation and in the oxidative stress response. To verify the potential association of peroxiredoxin I, platelet-derived growth factor-A, and platelet-derived growth factor receptor-alpha with carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma progression, we investigated the expression of these molecules in carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma showing different degrees of invasion. The peroxiredoxin I, platelet-derived growth factor-A, and platelet-derived growth factor receptor-alpha proteins were present in remnant pleomorphic adenoma to only a small extent, but, collectively, they were highly expressed as soon as the malignant phenotype was achieved and remained at elevated concentrations during progression to the advanced stages of carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma. In addition, their locations overlapped significantly, strengthening their connection to this growth-signaling pathway. Our results indicate that carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma cells acquire at least 2 significant advantages relative to their normal counterparts: resistance to oxidative stress-induced apoptosis, conferred by high peroxiredoxin I concentrations, and sustained growth, reflecting platelet-derived growth factor-A and platelet-derived growth factor receptor-alpha overexpression.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are established molecules that are injurious to such biomolecules as DNA and protein, and that can induce lipid peroxidation. However, it is now held that Nox/Duox family of NADPH oxidases generate ROS in a carefully regulated manner, which can act as second messengers influencing signal transduction in various cells including hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). This paper focused on mechanism of ROS generated by NOX/Duox regulating signal transduction, and then reviewed signal transduction of ROS-mediated liver profibrogenic factors, e.g., transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), Angiotensin II (Ang II) and leptin, et al in HSCs.
