de Brum GF, Bochi GV. Are Advanced Oxidation Protein Products (AOPPs) Levels Altered in Neuropsychiatric Disorders? An Integrative Review. Mol Neurobiol 2024:10.1007/s12035-024-04122-7. [PMID: 38580854 DOI: 10.1007/s12035-024-04122-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2023] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
Neuropsychiatric disorders such as major depressive disorder (MDD), bipolar disorder (BD), and schizophrenia (SZ) are considered a public health problem since it interferes in personal relationships and at work. The pathophysiological mechanisms of these mental disorders are still not completely understood. The variety and heterogeneity of symptoms, as well as the absence of biomarkers, make the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of these disorders difficult. However, oxidative stress appears to play a role in the pathophysiology of these diseases. In this context, advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) are considered a biomarker of protein oxidative damage and have been associated with neuroinflammatory diseases. In patients with neuropsychiatric disorders, increased levels of AOPPs were associated with the severity of symptoms and decreased quality of life. Thus, the objective of this integrative review is to investigate and discuss the relationship between AOPPs levels and MDD, BD, and SZ. Different databases were consulted and approximately 112 scientific articles were found relating AOPPs and psychiatric disorders. In the majority of studies, the blood levels of AOPPs were increased in MDD, BD, and SZ and associated with the severity of the disorders. Although the association of this marker with the risk of developing one of these mental disorders is more uncertain, some studies have suggested this relationship. Of the twenty-four studies highlighted, only four did not find significant differences in AOPPs levels in patients with the disorders mentioned. In summary, it may be suggested that the assessment of AOPPs levels can be a useful tool in the evaluation of neuropsychiatric disorders, at least for prognostic evaluation. However, the role of this biomarker in the pathophysiology of mental disorders is still unclear, as well as whether reducing its levels represents a potential therapeutic strategy.

Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune-mediated disease that damages the central nervous system. MS pathophysiological features are not entirely understood, but the increase of reactive oxygen species (ROS) possibly causes myelin and oligodendrocyte degeneration. ROS-increased production generates new compounds through oxidative modifications, including advanced oxidative protein products (AOPPs). The AOPPs are oxidative stress biomarkers and inflammatory mediators commonly formed by hypochlorous acid oxidative action on albumin. Considering that AOPPs accumulation produces ROS and induces neuronal apoptosis, these may represent a new target for drug development to MS treatment and a possible biomarker to monitor the severity of the disease. Thus, this review aims to investigate if there is an alteration in the AOPPs levels in MS and its possible involvement in patient disability. The second objective is to analyze whether drugs or compounds used in MS treatment could modify the AOPPs levels. The protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020203268). The databases' search yielded 327 articles. We excluded 259 duplicated articles and evaluated 68 articles by the title and abstract. We full-text analyzed 17 articles and included 13 articles. The AOPPs levels were increased in not-treated MS patients. Furthermore, the increase in disability status was associated with AOPPs accumulation in not-treated MS patients. Additionally, the AOPPs levels were reduced in MS patients after treatment. Therefore, AOPPs seem to play a role in MS pathophysiology and may become a new target for drug development and help MS diagnosis or treatment follow-up.

Abstract
Uric acid presents different roles in an organism, since it can act as an antioxidant or a pro-oxidant molecule. High serum uric acid levels may cause damage to several structures, including nucleic acids and its components. Therefore, in this study the association between increased serum uric acid concentrations and oxidation of nucleosides was investigated by assessment of urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and in healthy individuals. Urinary 8-OHdG and biochemical parameters were assessed in 61 patients who were initially grouped into 2 groups based on the median serum uric acid levels (<5.3 mg/dL and ≥5.3 mg/dL). Urinary 8-OHdG was higher in patients with T2D and serum uric acid levels ≥5.3 mg/dL, when compared with the patients with serum uric acid levels <5.3 mg/dL; however, co-occurrence of high serum uric acid with high urinary 8-OHdG was not observed in healthy individuals. A significant positive correlation between 8-OHdG and uric acid (r = 0.40, P < 0.01) was observed in patients with T2D. High serum uric acid levels were associated with high urinary 8-OHdG levels in patients with T2D, and this association was independent of gender, hypertension, body mass index, and serum creatinine.

Abstract
Aquaculture is a growing industry that is increasingly providing a sizable proportion of fishery products for human consumption. Dietary energy and temperature fluctuations affect fish health and may even trigger mortality, causing great losses in fish production during winter. To better understand this unproductive winter period in aquaculture, the redox status in a cultured marine species, the gilthead sea bream, was analyzed for the first time by inducing controlled temperature fluctuations and reducing dietary lipid content. Two groups of fish (by triplicate), differing in their dietary lipid content (18% vs. 14%), were subjected to 30 days at 22°C (Pre-Cold), 50 days at 14°C (Cold) and then 35 days at 22°C (Recovery). Plasma and liver redox metabolites (oxidized lipid, oxidized protein and thiol groups), liver glutathione forms (total, oxidized and reduced) and liver antioxidant enzyme activities were measured. Reducing dietary lipid content did not affect gilthead sea bream growth, glutathione levels or enzyme activities, but did reduce the amount of oxidized lipids. A sustained low temperature of 14°C showed a lack of adaptation of antioxidant enzyme activities, mainly catalase and glutathione reductase, which subsequently affected the glutathione redox cycle and caused an acute reduction in total hepatic glutathione levels, irrespective of diet. Antioxidant enzyme activities were gradually restored to their pre-cold levels, but the glutathione redox cycle was not restored to its pre-cold values during the recovery period used. Moreover, the lower lipid diet was associated with transiently increased liver oxidized protein levels. Thus, we propose that fish should be fed a low lipid diet during pre-cold and cold periods, which would reduce oxidized lipid levels without affecting fish growth, and a higher energy diet during the recovery period. Moreover, diets supplemented with antioxidants should be considered, especially during temperature recovery.

Abstract
Advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) are novel biomarkers of oxidative damage to proteins and a novel class of inflammatory mediators. AOPPs can promote oxidative stress (OS) and inflammation and thus participate in many pathophysiological disease processes. Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of blood vessels that is characterized by low-density lipoprotein infiltration into the endothelial intima and the formation of atherosclerotic plaques. Inflammation and OS are established risk factors for the formation of atherosclerosis. Accumulated studies show that AOPPs can accelerate the progression of atherosclerosis through OS and inflammation. Additionally, AOPPs can accelerate the formation of atherosclerotic plaques by inhibiting high-density lipoprotein receptor scavenger receptor class B type I-mediated high-density lipoprotein cholesterol reverse transport, leading to metabolic disturbances. Some studies have suggested that plasma AOPPs levels are independently positively correlated with blood pressure and are also independent risk factors for cardiovascular disease. AOPPs can trigger oxidative bursts of neutrophils, monocytes and phagocytic cells, increase the generation of reactive oxygen species and promote the secretion of cytokines to accelerate endothelial cell injury. Detecting the levels and inhibiting the formation of AOPPs may provide a novel approach to monitor the progress and improve the prognosis of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
AIMS Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has been considered a fundamental mechanism in complications of Crohn's disease (CD), especially intestinal fibrosis. However, the mechanism underlying EMT regulation in intestinal fibrosis remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role of advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) in the occurrence of intestinal EMT. RESULTS AOPPs accumulated in CD tissues and were associated with EMT marker expression in fibrotic lesions from CD patients. Challenge with AOPPs induced intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) phenotype transdifferentiation, fibroblast-like phenotype acquisition, and production of extracellular matrix, both in vitro and in vivo. The effect of AOPPs was mainly mediated by a protein kinase C (PKC) δ-mediated redox-dependent pathway, including phosphorylation of PKC δ, recruitment of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase, production of reactive oxygen species, and NF-κB p65 activation. Inhibition of AOPP-redox signaling activation effectively blocked AOPP-induced EMT in vitro. Studies performed in normal rats showed that chronic administration of AOPPs triggered the occurrence of EMT in rat intestinal epithelia, accompanied by disruption of intestinal integrity, and by promotion of collagen deposition. These effects could be reversed by inhibition of NADPH oxidase. Innovation and Conclusion: This is the first study to demonstrate that AOPPs triggered the occurrence of EMT in IECs in vitro and in vivo through PKC δ-mediated redox-dependent signaling. Our study identifies the role of AOPPs and, in turn, EMT in intestinal fibrosis and provides novel potential targets for the treatment of intestinal fibrotic diseases. Antioxid.

Abstract
Continuing our work on the sources of natural bioactive compounds, we evaluated the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of Nepeta trachonitica as well as its major phenolic content using the high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) technique. For antioxidant activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and cupric ion reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) methods were performed to measure the reducing power and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay was employed to evaluate the radical scavenging activity of the sample. For antimicrobial activity, three Gram-positive and four Gram-negative microbial species as well as three fungi species were tested. N. trachonitica appeared to have reasonable antioxidant activity and decent antimicrobial activity as indicated by the inhibition of the organisms' growth. The most susceptible species were Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633 and Escherichia coli ATCC 11229 among the organisms tested. Ethanol extract of the plant has the highest effect on Saccharomyces cerevisiae but no effect on Yarrowia lipolytica. The HPLC-MS/MS analysis showed that at least 11 major phenolic compounds of N. trachonitica exist, the major ones being rosmarinic acid, chlorogenic acid and quinic acid. The obtained results suggest that N. trachonitica could be a promising source for food and nutraceutical industries because of its antimicrobial and antioxidant properties and phenolic compounds.

Abstract
Fenton reaction is a new mechanism able to generate advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) by exposing the human serum albumin to the Fenton system. Here, we characterized the effects of Fenton reaction-generated advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP-FR) on the gene transcription of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in human embryonic kidney cells (HEK 293). To investigate the effects of AOPP-FR and AOPP-HOCl on transcription of inflammatory genes, the NF-κB, COX-2, and IL-6 luciferase promoter activities were analyzed. AOPP-FR and AOPP-HOCl were able to induce the activation of the gene transcription of NF-κB, COX-2, and IL-6 in HEK 293 cells. However, the effects of AOPP-FR were significantly higher than the effects of AOPP-HOCl in relation to COX-2 and IL-6. AOPP-FR induces the activation of the gene transcription of NF-κB, COX-2, and IL-6 and may represent a novel pathogenic mediator of inflammation in kidney.

Abstract
Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, known together as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), and celiac disease are the most common disorders affecting not only adults but also children. Both IBDs and celiac disease are associated with oxidative stress, which may play a significant role in their etiologies. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide radicals (O2•-), hydroxyl radicals (•OH), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and singlet oxygen (1O2) are responsible for cell death via oxidation of DNA, proteins, lipids, and almost any other cellular constituent. To protect biological systems from free radical toxicity, several cellular antioxidant defense mechanisms exist to regulate the production of ROS, including enzymatic and nonenzymatic pathways. Superoxide dismutase catalyzes the dismutation of O2•- to H2O2 and oxygen. The glutathione redox cycle involves two enzymes: glutathione peroxidase, which uses glutathione to reduce organic peroxides and H2O2; and glutathione reductase, which reduces the oxidized form of glutathione with concomitant oxidation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. In addition to this cycle, GSH can react directly with free radicals. Studies into the effects of free radicals and antioxidant status in patients with IBDs and celiac disease are scarce, especially in pediatric patients. It is therefore very necessary to conduct additional research studies to confirm previous data about ROS status and antioxidant activities in patients with IBDs and celiac disease, especially in children.

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.

[PMID: 27026925 PMCID: PMC4771658 DOI: 10.1186/s40064-016-1899-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2015] [Accepted: 02/17/2016] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
This study was designed to test the hypothesis that whether the plasma level of advanced oxidant protein products (AOPPs) would be useful for the clinical diagnosis of acute lung injury (ALI) following cardiac surgery with the technique of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). In this prospective study, seventy consecutive adults undergoing open heart surgery with CPB were included and assigned into the ALI (n = 18) and non-ALI (n = 52) groups according to the American-European Consensus Criteria. Plasma concentrations of AOPPs were measured at baseline, postoperative 1 h, 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h. Eighteen patients (25.7 %) developed ALI after surgery. The plasma levels of AOPPs in the ALI group were significantly increased and remained considerably higher at all time points after operation (all P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the plasma level of AOPPs at 1 h after operation was an independent predictor for the diagnosis of ALI (OR 1.164; 95 % CI 1.068–1.269; P = 0.001). Plasma level of AOPPs could serve as an early biomarker of the incidence of ALI in adult patients who underwent open cardiac surgery with the technique of CPB.

Abstract
There are various antioxidant materials that scavenge free radicals in human plasma. It is possible that the radical-scavenging function causes a radiation protective effect in humans. This study estimated the hydroxyl (OH) radical-scavenging activity induced by X-ray irradiation in human plasma. The test subjects included 111 volunteers (75 males and 36 females) ranging from 22 to 35 years old (average, 24.0). OH radicals generated in irradiated human plasma were measured by electron spin resonance (ESR). The relationships between the amount of the OH radical and chemical and biological parameters [total protein, total cholesterol, triglycerides and hepatitis B surface (HBs) antibodies] were estimated in the plasma of the 111 volunteers by a multivariate analysis. The presence of HBs antibodies had the greatest influence on OH radical-scavenging activity. One volunteer who did not have the HBs antibody was given an inoculation of the hepatitis B vaccine. There was a remarkable decrease in the amount of OH radical generated from plasma after the HBs antibody was produced. The results indicate that the HBs antibody is an important factor for the scavenging of OH radicals initiated by X-ray irradiation in the human body.

Abstract
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent form of chronic glomerulonephritis in the world. The underlying pathogenesis of this autoimmune disease comprises the formation of immune complexes, including glycan-specific IgA1 or IgG antibodies and an aberrant glycosylation of IgA1. Until now, anatomopathological analysis of renal biopsies is essential for the diagnosis of IgAN and different histological classification systems have been proposed, e.g. the Oxford classification. However, a percutaneous renal biopsy is frequently not performed for several reasons and the Oxford classification system has some limitations. Since the poor prognosis of IgAN patients is partly the result of a delayed diagnosis, there is an urgent need for reliable noninvasive biomarkers that might be applicable in routine clinical practice. This article reviews the advances on the understanding of the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of IgAN and discusses in depth the recent development of new biomarkers, including the use of proteomics and microRNAs.

Abstract
Proteins are important targets of several modifications caused by oxidative stress, leading to structural changes and consequently partial or total loss of their functions. The oxidized proteins include advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) derived from oxidation-modified albumin, as well as fibrinogen and lipoproteins. An increase in AOPP levels indicates an oxidative stress state and the presence of coexisting inflammation. Several investigations have also suggested an association between high AOPP levels and aging-related diseases. However, the link between elevated AOPP levels and elderly mortality risk has not yet been investigated. Here, we report on a 5-year longitudinal study that investigated the potential association between AOPP levels and mortality using a population-based representative sample of riparian elders living in Brazilian Amazon region (Maués-AM). Age, sex, socioeconomic and cultural conditions, chronic morbidities, polypharmacy, and previous morbidities were also tested as potential confounders. The AOPP levels were measured in 540 (84.78%) individuals, all of whom were followed over a 5-year period in order to establish the mortality rate. Within this study period, 74 (13.7%) elders died and 466 (86.3%) survived. The AOPP levels were higher among the elders who died within the 5-year period (46.27 ± 40.6 mmol/L) compared with those who survived (36.79 ± 20.84 mmol/L) (p = 0.002). The analysis confirmed the link between high AOPP levels and mortality risk, independent of other intervenient factors. These results suggest that elevated AOPP levels could be used to predict mortality risk in elderly patients.
