Abstract
The photochemical properties of dissolved organic matter (DOM) have been of interest to scientists and engineers since the 1970s. Upon light absorption, chromophoric DOM (CDOM) can sensitize the formation of different short-lived reactive intermediates (RIs), including hydroxyl radical (•OH), singlet oxygen (1O2) and superoxide radical anion (O2•-). In addition, a fraction of the excited singlet states in CDOM decays into excited triplet states (3CDOM*), which are also important photochemical transients in environmental systems. These RIs have a significant impact on different processes in sunlit waters, including degradation of organic contaminants and the inactivation of pathogens. Due to their transient nature and low steady-state concentrations, the use of common analytical techniques for the direct measurement of these species is impractical. Therefore, specific probe compounds (PCs) are used. PCs include furfuryl alcohol for 1O2, and terephthalic acid for •OH. In this publication, we present a critical review of the use of PCs for the assessment of the formation of photochemically generated RIs. We first introduce the concept of a PC, including the kinetic treatment and necessary assumptions needed to conduct a specific measurement. Afterward, we present short overviews of the most studied RIs and review relevant issues regarding the use of specific PCs for their measurement. We finalize by offering recommendations regarding the use of PCs in environmental photochemistry.

Abstract
Apoptosis is a programmed physiological death of unwanted cells, and handling of apoptotic cells (ACs) is thought to have profound effects on immune-mediated disorders. However, there is scant information regarding the role of ACs in intestinal inflammation, in which immune homeostasis is a major concern. To investigate this, we injected ACs into a severe combined immunodeficiency adoptive transfer model of chronic colitis in the presence and absence of cotransferred whole B or regulatory B cell (Breg)-depleted B cells. We also injected syngeneic ACs into AKR/N mice as a control and into milk fat globule-epidermal growth factor 8 knockout mice deficient of phagocytic function. Chronic colitis severity was significantly reduced in the AC as opposed to the phosphate-buffered saline group with cotransferred whole B cells. The AC-mediated effect was lost in the absence of B cells or presence of Breg-depleted B cells. In addition, ACs induced splenic B cells to secrete significantly increased levels of interleukin 10 in AKR/N mice but not milk fat globule-epidermal growth factor 8 knockout mice. Apoptotic leukocytes were induced by reactive oxygen species during granulocyte/monocyte apheresis therapy in rabbits and H2O2-induced apoptotic neutrophils ameliorated mice colitis. Our results indicate that ACs are protective only in the presence of B cells and phagocytosis of ACs induced interleukin 10 producing Bregs. Thus, the ameliorative effect seen in this study might have been exerted by AC-induced Bregs through increased production of the immunosuppressive cytokine interleukin 10, whereas an AC-mediated effect may contribute to the anti-inflammatory effect of granulocyte/monocyte apheresis as a novel therapeutic mechanism for inflammatory bowel disease.

Abstract
Production of apoplastic reactive oxygen species (ROS), or oxidative burst, is among the first responses of plants upon recognition of microorganisms. It requires peroxidase or NADPH oxidase (NOX) activity and factors maintaining cellular redox homeostasis. Here, PpTSPO1 involved in mitochondrial tetrapyrrole transport and abiotic (salt) stress tolerance was tested for its role in biotic stress in Physcomitrella patens, a nonvascular plant (moss). The fungal elicitor chitin caused an immediate oxidative burst in wild-type P. patens but not in the previously described ΔPrx34 mutants lacking the chitin-responsive secreted class III peroxidase (Prx34). Oxidative burst in P. patens was associated with induction of the oxidative stress-related genes AOX, LOX7, and NOX, and also PpTSPO1. The available ΔPpTSPO1 knockout mutants overexpressed AOX and LOX7 constitutively, produced 2.6-fold more ROS than wild-type P. patens, and exhibited increased sensitivity to a fungal necrotrophic pathogen and a saprophyte. These results indicate that Prx34, which is pivotal for antifungal resistance, catalyzes ROS production in P. patens, while PpTSPO1 controls redox homeostasis. The capacity of TSPO to bind harmful free heme and porphyrins and scavenge them through autophagy, as shown in Arabidopsis under abiotic stress, seems important to maintenance of the homeostasis required for efficient pathogen defense.

Abstract
Microbe/pathogen-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs/PAMPs) often induce rises in cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](cyt)) and protein phosphorylation. Though they are postulated to play pivotal roles in plant innate immunity, their molecular links and the regulatory mechanisms remain largely unknown. To investigate the regulatory mechanisms for MAMP-induced Ca(2+) mobilization, we have established a transgenic rice (Oryza sativa) cell line stably expressing apoaequorin, and characterized the interrelationship among MAMP-induced changes in [Ca(2+)](cyt), production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and protein phosphorylation. Oligosaccharide and sphingolipid MAMPs induced Ca(2+) transients mainly due to plasma membrane Ca(2+) influx, which were dramatically suppressed by a protein phosphatase inhibitor, calyculin A (CA). Hydrogen peroxide and hypo-osmotic shock triggered similar [Ca(2+)](cyt) elevations, which were not affected by CA. MAMP-induced protein phosphorylation, which is promoted by CA, has been shown to be required for ROS production and MAPK activation, while it negatively regulates MAMPs-induced Ca(2+) mobilization and may play a crucial role in temporal regulation of [Ca(2+)](cyt) signature.

Abstract
During the electron transfer through the cytochrome bc(1) complex (ubiquinol-cytochrome c oxidoreductase or complex III), protons are translocated across the membrane, and production of superoxide anion radicals (O(2)(*-)) is observed. The bc(1) complex is purified from broken mitochondrial preparation prepared from frozen heart muscles by repeated detergent solubilization and salt fractionation. The electron transfer of the purified complex is determined spectrophotometrically. The activity depends on the choice of detergent, protein concentration, and ubiquinol derivatives used. The proton translocation activity of 2H(+)/e(-) is determined in the reconstituted bc(1)-PL vesicles. The O(2)(*-) production by bc(1) is determined by measuring the chemiluminescence of the 2-methyl-6-(p-methoxyphenyl)-3,7-dihydroimidazol[1,2-1]pyrazin-3-one hydrochloride (MCLA)-O(2)(*-) adduct during a single turnover of bc(1) complex, with the Applied Photophysics stopped-flow reaction analyzer SX.18MV, by leaving the excitation light source off and registering the light emission. Production of O(2)(*-) by bc(1) is in an inverse relationship to its electron transfer activity. Inactivation of the bc(1) complex by incubating at elevated temperature (37 degrees C) or by treatment with proteinase K results in an increase in O(2)(*-)-generating activity to the same level as that of the antimycin A-inhibited complex. These results suggest that the structural integrity of protein subunits is not required for O(2)(*-)-generating activity in the bc(1) complex.

In this review I will discuss chemical principles of the luminescence of imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-3(7H)-one compounds described to date. The review is composed of two main parts, the first dealing with the bioluminescence of coelenterate luciferin "coelenterazine" and Cypridina luciferin in marine organisms and the second with the chemiluminescence of these luciferins and their analogues. In the second section, possible applications of chemiluminescence and enhanced chemiluminescence in the area of bioassay are also discussed.

Abstract
Hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is characterized by the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as superoxide anions and hydrogen peroxide. The aim of this study is to investigate whether antioxidative gene delivery by our polylipid nanoparticles (PLNP) is an effective approach for prevention of the injury. Polyplexes of extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) and/or catalase genes were injected via the portal vein 1 day prior to a warm I/R procedure in mice. The effects of the gene delivery were determined 6 hours after starting reperfusion. PLNP-mediated antioxidative gene delivery led to a marked increase in human EC-SOD and catalase gene expression in the liver. Liver superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase activity both increased approximately 10-fold. Increased liver superoxide anion levels caused by the I/R procedure were reduced to normal levels by EC-SOD gene delivery. The overexpression of these 2 antioxidative genes significantly suppressed the I/R-induced elevation of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels, decreased liver malondialdehyde content, restored glutathione reserve, and improved liver histology. In conclusion, EC-SOD or catalase gene delivery by PLNP resulted in high levels of the transgene activity in the liver, and markedly attenuated hepatic I/R injury. The protection is directly associated with elevated antioxidative enzyme activity as the result of the gene delivery. This novel approach may become a potential therapy to improve graft function and survival after liver transplantation.

Abstract
In genetically susceptible human and/or experimental animals, heavy metals such as mercury, gold, and silver have been shown to highly induce adverse immunological reactions such as allergy and autoimmunity, in which mast cell degranulation is implicated as playing a role. We previously reported that silver activates mast cells and induces Ca2+ influx without stimulating intracellular signaling events required for activation of store-operated Ca2+ channels (SOCs). The purpose of the present study was to elucidate the possible involvement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the biological effects of silver. Analysis using oxidant-sensitive fluorescent probes such as dichlorodihydrofluorescein and scopoletin, as well as MCLA-amplified chemiluminescence, showed that silver induced intracellular production and/or extracellular release of ROS. Silver induced mast cell degranulation in a Ca2+ -dependent manner. Unlike IgE antigen, silver-induced Ca2+ influx was not affected by depletion of internal Ca2+ stores. Instead, the metal-induced Ca2+ influx was abolished and reversed by the cell-impermeant thiol-reducing agent dithiothreitol, indicating the regulation by oxidation of vicinal thiols on the cell surface. Consistent with this view, Ca2+ influx was blocked by the glutathione peroxidase mimetic ebselen (2-phenyl-1,2-benzisoselenazol-3(2H)-one) and the superoxide dismutase mimetic manganese(III) tetrakis 4-(benzoic acid)porphyrin, but not by exogenously added catalase or superoxide dismutase. These findings indicate that silver evokes the release of ROS and oxidation of thiols critical for the activation of a Ca2+ channel other than SOC. Such a novel ROS-dependent pathway might play a role in mast cell degranulation in metal-induced allergic and autoimmune reactions.

Abstract
The molecular links between the cell cycle and defense responses in plants are largely unknown. Using synchronized tobacco BY-2 cells, we analyzed the cell cycle dependence of elicitor-induced defense responses. In synchronized cultured apoaequorin-expressing cells, the increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ induced by a proteinaceous elicitor, cryptogein, was greatly suppressed during the G2 and M phases in comparison with G1 or S phases. Treatment with cryptogein during the G1 or S phases also induced biphasic (rapid/transient and slow/prolonged) responses in activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In contrast, elicitor treatment during the G2 or M phases induced only a rapid and transient phase of MAPK activation and ROS production. Their slow and prolonged phases as well as expression of defense-related genes, cell cycle arrest and cell death were induced only after the cell cycle progressed to the G1 phase; removal of the elicitor before the start of the G1 phase inhibited these responses. These results suggest that although cryptogein recognition occurred at all phases of the cell cycle, the recognition during the S or G1 phases, but not at the G2 or M phases, induces the prolonged activation of MAPKs and the prolonged production of ROS, followed by cell cycle arrest, accumulation of defense-related gene transcripts and cell death. Elicitor signal transduction depends on the cell cycle and is regulated differently at each phase.

Abstract
Structural analysis of the dimeric mitochondrial cytochrome bc1 complex suggests that electron transfer between inter-monomer hemes bL-bL may occur during bc1 catalysis. Such electron transfer may be facilitated by the aromatic pairs present between the two bL hemes in the two symmetry-related monomers. To test this hypothesis, R. sphaeroides mutants expressing His6-tagged bc1 complexes with mutations at three aromatic residues (Phe-195, Tyr-199, and Phe-203), located between two bL hemes, were generated and characterized. All three mutants grew photosynthetically at a rate comparable to that of wild-type cells. The bc1 complexes prepared from mutants F195A, Y199A, and F203A have, respectively, 78%, 100%, and 100% of ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase activity found in the wild-type complex. Replacing the Phe-195 of cytochrome b with Tyr, His, or Trp results in mutant complexes (F195Y, F195H, or F195W) having the same ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase activity as the wild-type. These results indicate that the aromatic group at position195 of cytochrome b is involved in electron transfer reactions of the bc1 complex. The rate of superoxide anion (O2*) generation, measured by the chemiluminescence of 2-methyl-6-(p-methoxyphenyl)-3,7-dihydroimidazo[1,2-alpha]pyrazin-3-one hydrochloride-O2* adduct during oxidation of ubiquinol, is 3 times higher in the F195A complex than in the wild-type or mutant complexes Y199A or F203A. This supports the idea that the interruption of electron transfer between the two bL hemes enhances electron leakage to oxygen and thus decreases the ubiquinol-cytochrome c reductase activity.

Abstract
The molecular links between cell cycle control and the regulation of programmed cell death are largely unknown in plants. Here we studied the relationship between the cell cycle and elicitor-induced cell death using synchronized tobacco BY-2 cells. Flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy of nuclear DNA, and RNA gel-blot analyses of cell cycle-related genes revealed that the proteinaceous elicitor cryptogein induced cell cycle arrest at the G1 or G2 phase before the induction of cell death. Furthermore, the patterns of cell death induction and defence-related genes were different in different phases of the cell cycle. Constitutive treatment with cryptogein induced cell cycle arrest and cell death at the G1 or G2 phase. With transient treatment for 2 h, cell cycle arrest and cell death were only induced by treatment with the elicitor during the S or G1 phase. By contrast, the elicitor-induced production of reactive oxygen species was observed during all phases of the cell cycle. These results indicate that although recognition of the elicitor signal is cell cycle-independent, the induction of cell cycle arrest and cell death depends on the phase of the cell cycle.

Abstract
Facile detection of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in biologic systems is often problematic. This is a result of the numerous cellular mechanisms, both enzymatic and nonenzymatic involved in their catabolism/decomposition, the complex and overlapping nature of their reactivities, as well as the often limited intracellular access of detector systems. This review describes approaches to the direct and indirect measurement of different reactive metabolites of oxygen and nitrogen. Particular attention to a method's applicability for in vivo determinations will be addressed.

Abstract
Ion fluxes and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are early events that follow elicitor treatment or microbial infection. However, molecular mechanisms for these responses as well as their relationship have been controversial and still largely unknown. We here simultaneously monitored the temporal sequence of initial events at the plasma membrane in suspension-cultured tobacco cells (cell line BY-2) in response to a purified proteinaceous elicitor, cryptogein, which induced hypersensitive cell death. The elicitor induced transient rise in cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](cyt)) showing two distinct peaks, followed by biphasic (rapid/transient and slow/prolonged) Cl(-) efflux and H(+) influx. Pharmacological analyses suggested that the two phases of the [Ca(2+)](cyt) response correspond to Ca(2+) influx through the plasma membrane and an inositol 1,4,5-trisphophate-mediated release of Ca(2+) from intracellular Ca(2+) stores, respectively, and the [Ca(2+)](cyt) transients and the Cl(-) efflux were mutually dependent events regulated by protein phosphorylation. The elicitor also induced production of ROS including (*)O(2)(-) and H(2)O(2), which initiated after the [Ca(2+)](cyt) rise and required Ca(2+) influx, Cl(-) efflux and protein phosphorylation. An inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, diphenylene iodonium, completely inhibited the elicitor-induced production of (*)O(2)(-) and H(2)O(2), but did not affect the [Ca(2+)](cyt) transients. These results suggest that cryptogein-induced plasma membrane Ca(2+) influx is independent of ROS, and NADPH oxidase dependent ROS production is regulated by these series of ion fluxes.

Abstract
Titanium is a successful biomaterial that possesses good biocompatibility. It is covered by a surface layer of titanium dioxide, and this oxide may play a critical role in inhibiting reactive oxygen species, such as peroxynitrite, produced during the inflammatory response. In the present study, titanium dioxide was coated onto silicone substrates by radio-frequency sputtering. Silicone coating with titanium dioxide enhanced the breakdown of peroxynitrite by 79%. At physiologic pH, the peroxynitrite donor 3-morpholinosydnonimine-N-ethylcarbamide (SIN-1) was used to nitrate 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (4-HPA) to form 4-hydroxy-3-nitrophenyl acetic acid (NHPA). Titanium dioxide-coated silicone inhibited the nitration of 4-HPA by 61% compared to aluminum oxide-coated silicone and 55% compared to uncoated silicone. J774A.1 mouse macrophages were plated on oxide-coated silicone and polystyrene and stimulated to produce superoxide and interleukin-6. Superoxide production was measured by the chemiluminescent reaction with 2-methyl-6-[p-methoxyphenyl]-3,7-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyrazin-3-one (MCLA). Titanium dioxide-coated silicone exhibited a 55% decrease in superoxide compared to uncoated silicone and a 165% decrease in superoxide compared to uncoated polystyrene. Titanium dioxide-coated silicone inhibited IL-6 production by 77% compared to uncoated silicone. These results show that the anti-inflammatory properties of titanium dioxide can be transferred to the surfaces of silicone substrates.

Abstract
In active rheumatoid arthritis, large numbers of granulocytes and macrophages are found in the inflamed joints. These leucocytes can promote inflammation and tissue injury by releasing inflammatory cytokines, proteinases and oxygen derivatives. To see if granulocyte and monocyte (GM) depletion produces anti-inflammatory effect, GM adsorption apheresis was performed in rabbits with immune arthritis by using a column (Adacolumn) filled with cellulose diacetate beads (G-1 beads) as adsorptive carriers which selectively adsorb CD11b positive GMs. Injection of ovalbumin into the knee joints of ovalbumin-sensitized rabbits caused a marked increase in peripheral blood leucocytes, joint swelling, increased granulocyte adhesion to G-1 beads and elevated TNF-alpha production by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). When rabbits received a 60 min adsorption apheresis, there was suppression of CD11b positive leucocyte infiltration into the joint and reduced joint swelling (P < 0.01) compared with controls. Additionally, there was a significant (p < 0.01) suppression of TNF-alpha production by PBMC in the post column blood. These results suggest that GM depletion may serve as a non-pharmacological strategy to modify inflammatory disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that rat peritoneal mast cells and mast cell model rat basophilic leukaemia (RBL-2H3) cells generate intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in response to antigen challenge. However, the physiological significance of the burst of ROS is poorly understood. OBJECTIVE The present study was undertaken to investigate the role of superoxide anion in mediator release in rat and human cell systems. METHODS RBL-2H3 cells were directly stimulated with anti-rat FcepsilonRI alpha-subunit monoclonal antibody (mAb). For the analysis of human cell system, leucocytes were isolated by dextran sedimentation from healthy volunteers or from patients, and challenged either with anti-human FcepsilonRI mAb or with the relevant antigens. Superoxide generation was determined by chemiluminescence-based methods. The releases of histamine and leukotrienes (LT)s were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorben assay (ELISA). RESULTS Cross-linking of FcepsilonRI on RBL-2H3 cells or on human leucocytes from healthy donors by the anti-FcepsilonRI mAb resulted in a rapid generation of superoxide anion, as determined by chemiluminescence using superoxide-specific probes. Similarly, leucocytes from patients generated superoxide anion in response to the challenge with the relevant allergen but not with the irrelevant allergen. Furthermore, diphenyleneiodonium (DPI), a well-known inhibitor of flavoenzymes suppressed the superoxide generation and the release of histamine and LTC4 induced by the anti-FcepsilonRI mAb or by allergen in parallel. CONCLUSION These results indicate that both RBL-2H3 cells and human basophils generate superoxide anion upon FcepsilonRI cross-linking either by antibody or by allergen challenge and that blockade of the generation prevents the release of allergic mediators. The findings strongly support the role of superoxide generation in the activation of mast cells and basophils under both physiological and pathological conditions. The findings suggest that drugs regulating the superoxide generation have potential therapeutic use for allergic disorders.

Abstract
AIMS/BACKGROUND We attempted to measure the generation of superoxide anion, examine its site of release and determine its pathological role in Propionibacterium acnes-lipopolysaccharide-induced liver injury in the rat. METHODS The P. acnes-pretreated (16 mg/kg i.v.) rat liver was perfused with buffer containing lipopolysaccharide (2.5 microg/ml). Chemiluminescence enhanced with Cypridina luciferin analog, MCLA, and reduction of nitro blue tetrazolium were used for detecting superoxide anion. Leakage of enzymes and release of cytokines into the perfusate, and histological specimens were also examined. RESULTS Superoxide dismutase-inhibitable chemiluminescence peaked at 30 min of lipopolysaccharide infusion and blue formazan precipitate was histochemically deposited mainly on hepatic macrophages. Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) activity in the perfusate, as a marker of sinusoidal endothelial cell injury, reached its maximum at 50 min and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activity, as a marker of hepatocyte injury, reached a plateau at 90 min. Simultaneous treatment with superoxide dismutase and deferoxamine mesylate significantly suppressed the leakage of PNP and AST. Release of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and growth-related oncogene/cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-1 lagged behind PNP leakage. Light microscopy showed destruction of the sinusoids followed by hepatocyte necrosis. Electron microscopy revealed adherence of hepatic macrophages to sinusoidal endothelial cells. CONCLUSION These results indicate that superoxide anion released from hepatic macrophages may induce sinusoidal endothelial cell injury via interaction with iron in the P. acnes-lipopolysaccharide-treated liver.

Abstract
Mast cells play a central role in immediate allergic reactions mediated by immunoglobulin E. It has recently been reported that mast cells generate intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in response to stimulation with divergent physiologically relevant stimulants. However, the physiological role of ROS is poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that mast cell model rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells generate ROS in response to antigen and the calcium-ionophore A23187 via activation of diphenyleneiodonuim (DPI)-sensitive enzyme and that blockade of ROS generation by DPI suppresses histamine release induced by either stimulant. Increased tyrosine phosphorylation of pp125(FAK) and a 77-kDa protein coprecipitating specifically with the kinase occurred in parallel with the secretion, and blockade of ROS generation by DPI also suppressed the tyrosine phosphorylation of both proteins. These findings suggest that ROS generated by a flavoenzyme-dependent mechanism may be involved in histamine release through the pp125(FAK) pathway.

Abstract
The recent increase of ultraviolet (UV) rays on Earth due to the increasing size of the ozone hole is suggested to be harmful to life and to accelerate premature photoaging of the skin. The detrimental effects of UV radiation on the skin are associated with the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide anion radical (*O(-)(2)), hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), hydroxyl radical (*OH), and singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)). However, direct proof of such ROS produced in the skin under UV irradiation has been elusive. In this study, we report first in vivo detection and imaging of the generated ROS in the skin of live mice following UVA irradiation, in which both a sensitive and specific chemiluminescence probe (CLA) and an ultralow-light-imaging apparatus with a CCD camera were used. In addition, we found that *O(-)(2) is formed spontaneously and (1)O(2) is generated in the UVA-irradiated skin. This method should be useful not only for noninvasive investigation of the spatial distribution and quantitative determination of ROS in the skin of live animals, but also for in vivo evaluation of the protective ability of free radical scavengers and antioxidants.

Abstract
Superoxide production from paraquat in a pulmonary microvascular endothelial cell (PMEC) suspension was demonstrated using 2-methyl-6-(p-methoxyphenyl)-3,7-dihydroimidazo[1,2-alpha]pyraz in-3-one (MCLA), a chemiluminescence probe, to detect superoxide anions. Increased rates of superoxide production from paraquat, which were sensitive to superoxide dismutase (SOD), required the presence of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) in the reaction medium, and occurred instantaneously after the addition of NADPH, which is impermeable to cell membranes. NADH as an electron donor was not as effective, and xanthine or succinate had no influence. Paraquat was anaerobically reduced in the presence of NADPH and PMECs to yield a one-electron reduced radical, and the reduction was inhibited by NADP+. Diphenyleneiodonium, an inhibitor of flavoprotein reductases, also markedly inhibited both paraquat reduction and superoxide production. These results indicate that NADPH-dependent superoxide production from paraquat probably occurs by a flavoprotein with NADPH-dependent reductase activity in cell membranes. NADPH-dependent superoxide production from paraquat was also reproduced using adherent PMECs on wells. Under these conditions, superoxide production was enhanced with agonists, including interleukin-1beta, A23187, and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. The effect of the former two was blocked with staurosporine, while the latter's effect was suppressed with calyculin A.

Abstract
Phagocytosis and killing of circulating organisms by Kupffer cells (KCs) are discrete, important components of host defense. However, the killing mechanism(s) are not fully understood, and the potential role of adjacent nonparenchymal cells such as hepatic endothelial cells has not been defined. Rat KCs -/+ an hepatic endothelial cell enriched cellular fraction (HECEF) were incubated with Candida parapsilosis and assayed for phagocytosis and phagocytic killing by validated fluorochromatic vital staining. The role of reactive oxygen metabolites in KC phagocytic functions was examined by inhibition with superoxide dismutase and/or catalase. Diphenyleneiodonium and allopurinol were used to examine the potential roles of NADPH oxidase and xanthine oxidase, respectively, in generating these toxic oxidants. Coculture with HECEF increased KC phagocytic activity (from 75% to 88%) and candidacidal activity (from 20% to 31%). Superoxide dismutase, catalase, diphenyleneiodonium, or allopurinol caused inhibition of candidacidal activity, but did not affect phagocytosis, and did not block the potentiation of phagocytosis or of killing caused by coculture with HECEF. Reactive oxygen intermediates generated by both NADPH oxidase and xanthine oxidase-dependent pathways are important in KC killing of Candida parapsilosis. In vitro, KC phagocytosis and killing are potentiated (via a non-oxidant-mediated mechanism) by coculture with a preparation of hepatic non-parenchymal cells composed primarily of endothelial cells.

Abstract
Eleven new coelenterazine analogs containing the 3,7-dihydroimidazo[1,2-alpha]pyrazin-3-one structure were synthesized. The superoxide-triggered chemiluminescence of these compounds was investigated using the hypoxanthine-xanthine oxidase system in comparison with four known compounds. The results showed that an alkyl substitution at the position 5 of the imidazopyrazinone ring causes a drastic decrease in the superoxide-dependent chemiluminescence intensity, whereas a dimethylene bridge added between the position 5 and the phenyl group bound to the position 6 dramatically increases the luminescence intensity, indicating the potential usefulness of this type of compound as a probe for superoxide anion. The luminescence intensity of the bridged analog was 33 times greater than that of MCLA [2-methyl-6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3, 7-dihydroimidazo[1,2-alpha]pyrazin-3-one], the most sensitive superoxide probe of Cypridina luciferin-type. Two of the analogs synthesized, each with a covalently bound cyclodextrin, had a good solubility in water, an advantage in actual use. Moreover, one of them having a beta-cyclodextrin group showed a unique property; its luminescence was little affected by various substances in the environment.

Abstract
Infusion of ethanol or phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) into the perfused rat liver immediately produces O2- which was detected directly by infusion of a Cypridina luciferin analogue, MCLA as a chemiluminescence reagent. The MCLA photon emission was inhibitable by SOD. Generation of O2- in the liver was further verified by nitroblue tetrazolium, formazan precipitate formation. Ethanol-induced O2- generation was unaffected by gadolinium chloride (GdCl3), an inhibitor of kupffer cells, while PMA induced O2- generation was completely abolished by GdCl3. Since PMA is a known stimulator of phagocytic cells including Kupffer cells, the results indicate, for the first time that ethanol stimulates a non-Kupffer cell population, probably liver sinusoid endothelial cell to produce O2-.
