[PMID: 33075616 DOI: 10.1016/j.aquatox.2020.105657] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2020] [Revised: 10/05/2020] [Accepted: 10/06/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) appears to be ubiquitous in natural water. Higher level of H2O2 can cause physiological stress, immunosuppression and even death in aquatic animals, but the physiological and molecular mechanisms of H2O2 toxicity are not well studied. Thus, the aim of the present study was to exposure potential toxic mechanisms of H2O2 via assessing the effects on redox state, apoptosis and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in common carp. The fish were subjected to four concentrations of H2O2 (0, 0.25, 0.5 and 1 mM) for 14 days. And then, the tissues including blood, liver, muscle, gills, intestines, heart, kidney and spleen were collected to measure biochemical parameter and gene expression. The results showed that H2O2 exposure suppressed the majority antioxidative parameters in serum, liver, muscle and intestines, but enhanced T-SOD, CAT and T-AOC levels in gills. In all tested tissues, the MDA content was significantly promoted by H2O2 exposure. The oxidative stress-related genes including nrf2, gstα, sod, cat and/or gpx1 were upregulated in liver, gills, muscle, intestines, and/or kidney, but downregulated in heart after H2O2 exposure. Moreover, the ho-1 mRNA level was inhibited by H2O2 exposure in all tissues except intestines and spleen. After 14 days of exposure, H2O2 induced ER stress and initiated IRE1 and PERK pathways, which activated downstream genes, including chop, grp78 and/or xbp1s, to regulate UPR in liver, gills, muscle and/or heart. Meanwhile, H2O2 exposure activated MAPK pathway to regulate mitochondria-related genes including bcl-2, bax and cytc, which further triggered cas-8, cas-9 and cas-3, and accelerated apoptosis in liver, gills, muscle and heart. Importantly, in different tissues, the genes associated with oxidative stress, ER stress and apoptosis showed a different influence, and more significant influence was observed in the muscle, gills and liver. Overall results suggested that long-term H2O2 exposure induced oxidative stress, ER stress and apoptosis in the majority of tested tissues of common carp. The Nrf2, IRE1, PERK and MAPK pathways played important roles in H2O2-induced toxicity in fish. These data enriched the toxicity mechanism of H2O2 in fish, which might contribute to the risk assessment of H2O2 in aquatic environment.

Abstract
Our previous study has shown that downregulation of B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/lymphoma11A (BCL11A) gene by small interfering RNA (siRNA) resulted in the growth inhibition and apoptosis of B cell lymphoma cell line SUDHL6. To gain further insight into the molecular mechanisms of this process and identify the differentially expressed genes in SUDHL6 cells after BCL11A downregulation, the global gene expression profile was identified and analyzed using the Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 array. Twenty-one differentially expressed genes were validated and analyzed from the BCL11A siRNA-treated SUDHL6 cells. There was a significant dysregulation in the global gene expression of the BCL11A-suppressed SUDHL6 cells. There were 1903 genes differentially expressed with >2-fold changes between the BCL11A siRNA- and negative control-transfected cells. Of these, there were 916 upregulated genes and 987 downregulated genes. The differential genes are involved in various molecular functions and signaling pathways. QRT-PCR validation of the selected differentially expressed genes demonstrated there was a good correlation with the microarray analysis. There was a significant deregulation of expression in the apoptosis-related genes such as BCL-2, BCL2L11 and involved in TGFβ, MAPK, WNT signaling pathways after BCL11A was downregulated in SUDHL6 cells. Our results show that the suppression of BCL11A by RNA interference altered gene expression profile of SUDHL6 cells. The apoptosis-related genes BCL-2, BCL2L11 and the gene alterations in TGFβ, MAPK, WNT signaling pathways might be important in BCL11A siRNA-induced apoptosis of SUDHL6 cells, suggesting BCL11A is involved in gene networks associated with apoptosis.

Response to rotenone is glucose-sensitive in a model of human acute lymphoblastic leukemia: involvement of oxidative stress mechanism, DJ-1, Parkin, and PINK-1 proteins.

Abstract
To establish the effect of low (11 mM) and high (55 mM) glucose concentrations (G11, G55) on Jurkat cells exposed to rotenone (ROT, a class 5 mitocan). We demonstrated that ROT induces apoptosis in Jurkat cells cultured in G11 by oxidative stress (OS) mechanism involving the generation of anion superoxide radical (O2∙−, 68%)/hydrogen peroxide (H2O2, 54%), activation of NF-κB (32%), p53 (25%), c-Jun (17%) transcription factors, and caspase-3 (28%), apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF, 36%) nuclei translocation, c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation, and loss of mitochondria transmembrane potential (ΔΨm, 62%) leading to nuclei fragmentation (~10% and ~40% stage I-II fragmented nuclei, resp.). ROT induces massive cytoplasmic aggregates of DJ-1 (93%), and upregulation of Parkin compared to untreated cells, but no effect on PINK-1 protein was observed. Cell death marker detection and DJ-1 and Parkin expression were significantly reduced when cells were cultured in G55 plus ROT. Remarkably, metformin sensitized Jurkat cells against ROT in G55. Our results indicate that a high-glucose milieu promotes resistance against ROT/H2O2-induced apoptosis in Jurkat cells. Our data suggest that combined therapy by using mitochondria-targeted damaging compounds and regulation of glucose (e.g., metformin) can efficiently terminate leukemia cells via apoptosis in hyperglycemic conditions.

TPEN induces apoptosis independently of zinc chelator activity in a model of acute lymphoblastic leukemia and ex vivo acute leukemia cells through oxidative stress and mitochondria caspase-3- and AIF-dependent pathways.

Abstract
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is still an incurable disease with resistance to therapy developing in the majority of patients. We investigated the effect of TPEN, an intracellular zinc chelator, in Jurkat and in ex vivo acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cells resistant to chemotherapy. Changes of nuclei morphology, reactive oxygen species generation, presence of hypodiploid cells, phosphatidylserine translocation, mitochondrial membrane depolarization, immunohistochemical identification of cell death signalling molecules, and pharmacological inhibition were assayed to detect the apoptotic cell death pathways. We found that TPEN induces apoptosis in both types of cells by a molecular oxidative stress pathway involving O(2)(•-) > H(2)O(2) >> NF-κB (JNK/c-Jun) >p53> loss ΔΨ(m)> caspase-3, AIF > chromatin condensation/DNA fragmentation. Interestingly, TPEN induced apoptosis independently of glucose; leukemic cells are therefore devoid of survival capacity by metabolic resistance to treatment. Most importantly, TPEN cytotoxic effect can eventually be regulated by the antioxidant N-acetyl-cysteine and zinc ions. Our data suggest that TPEN can be used as a potential therapeutic prooxidant agent against refractory leukemia. These data contribute to understanding the importance of oxidative stress in the treatment of ALL.

Abstract
This study was undertaken to investigate the cytoprotective effect of the fruit pulp of Eugenia jambolana (50-250 μg ml(-1) ) against the damage induced by H 2 O 2 (100 μm) exposure to Leydig cells in vitro. Cell survival with extract was found comparable to similar effects by N-acetyl-l-cysteine. H 2 O 2 -induced rise in thiobarbituric acid reactive substance formation and decline in the activity and expression of antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione-s-transferase were effectively checked. Cellular glutathione and total antioxidant capacity demonstrated significant improvement. The increase in expression of inducible nitric oxide (NO) synthase leading to NO production was successfully countered. Co-treatment of the extract helped in the down-regulation of caspase-3 and poly-ADP-ribose polymerase resulting in a significant reduction in Leydig cell apoptosis induced by H 2 O 2 . Upstream marker proteins of extrinsic (caspase-8, Fas, FasL) and intrinsic (caspase-9) pathway of metazoan apoptosis were identically down-regulated. The Bcl-2 family of proteins, though, remained unaffected. The extract also positively modulated the other marker proteins like c-Jun NH 2 -terminal kinase, p38, Akt, nuclear factor-κB, c-Fos, cellular FLICE-inhibitory protein, cyclooxygenase-2 and p53. Taken together, the above-mentioned findings establish the anti-oxidative and anti-apoptotic potency of the extract that ameliorates the H 2 O 2 -induced adverse effects on rat Leydig cells in vitro.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and cancer (e.g., leukemia) are the most devastating disorders affecting millions of people worldwide. Except for some kind of cancers, no effective and/or definitive therapeutic treatment aimed to reduce or to retard the clinic and pathologic symptoms induced by AD and PD is presently available. Therefore, it is urgently needed to understand the molecular basis of these disorders. Since oxidative stress (OS) is an important etiologic factor of the pathologic process of AD, PD, and cancer, understanding how intracellular signaling pathways respond to OS will have a significant implication in the therapy of these diseases. Here, we propose a model of minimal completeness of cell death signaling induced by OS as a mechanistic explanation of neuronal and cancer cell demise. This mechanism might provide the basis for therapeutic design strategies. Finally, we will attempt to associate PD, cancer, and OS. This paper critically analyzes the evidence that support the “oxidative stress model” in neurodegeneration and cancer.

Abstract
Human MutS homologue 2 (hMSH2), a crucial element of the highly conserved DNA mismatch repair system, maintains genetic stability in the nucleus of normal cells. Our previous studies indicate that hMSH2 is ectopically expressed on the surface of epithelial tumor cells and recognized by both T cell receptor γδ (TCRγδ) and natural killer group 2 member D (NKG2D) on Vδ2 T cells. Ectopically expressed hMSH2 could trigger a γδ T cell-mediated cytolysis. In this study, we showed that oxidative stress induced ectopic expression of hMSH2 on human renal carcinoma cells. Under oxidative stress, both p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathways have been confirmed to mediate the ectopic expression of hMSH2 through the apoptosis-signaling kinase 1 (ASK1) upstream and activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) downstream of both pathways. Moreover, renal carcinoma cell-derived interleukin (IL)-18 in oxidative stress was a prominent stimulator for ectopically induced expression of hMSH2, which was promoted by interferon (IFN)-γ as well. Finally, oxidative stress or pretreatment with IL-18 and IFN-γ enhanced γδ T cell-mediated cytolysis of renal carcinoma cells. Our results not only establish a mechanism of ectopic hMSH2 expression in tumor cells but also find a biological linkage between ectopic expression of hMSH2 and activation of γδ T cells in stressful conditions. Because γδ T cells play an important role in the early stage of innate anti-tumor response, γδ T cell activation triggered by ectopically expressed hMSH2 may be an important event in immunosurveillance for carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Occupational exposure to chromium (Cr) compounds has been shown to cause serious toxic and carcinogenic effects. The skin is an important target for the compounds in industrially exposed Cr workers. c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) regulates cell proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation. This protein's effects on cellular response depend upon the cell type and stimuli. The mechanisms by which hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) leads to apoptosis in the skin are unclear at present. The aim of this study is to examine whether JNK regulates apoptosis in Cr(VI)-exposed mouse JB6 epidermal cells. The present study showed that Cr(VI) induced apoptotic cell death through JNK activation. The blockage of JNK by small interference RNA (si-RNA) transfection suppressed Cr(VI)-induced apoptotic cell death with the concomitant downregulation of antiapoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins, mitochondrial membrane depolarization (Δψm), caspase activation, and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase cleavage. However, inhibition of c-Jun expression by si-RNA transfection enhanced cytotoxicity, which corresponded to increasing apoptosis and Δψm. This phenomenon is associated with p53 activation caused by increasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels because of the downregulation of superoxide dismutase expression in si-c-Jun-transfected cells. Taken together, Cr(VI) induces apoptosis via JNK-mediated signaling, whereas c-Jun activation acts as an inhibitor of apoptotic signaling. Additionally, ROS generated by Cr(VI) is a pivotal regulator of JNK.
