Abstract
As a prevalent progressive neurodegenerative disorder, Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the neuropathological hallmark of the loss of nigrostriatal dopaminergic (DAergic) innervation and the appearance of Lewy bodies with aggregated α-synuclein. Although several familial forms of PD have been reported to be associated with several gene variants, most cases in nature are sporadic, triggered by a complex interplay of genetic and environmental risk factors. Numerous epidemiological studies during the past two decades have shown positive associations between PD and several environmental factors, including exposure to neurotoxic pesticides/herbicides and heavy metals as well as traumatic brain injury. Other environmental factors that have been implicated as potential risk factors for PD include industrial chemicals, wood pulp mills, farming, well-water consumption, and rural residence. In this review, we summarize the environmental toxicology of PD with the focus on the elaboration of chemical toxicity and the underlying pathogenic mechanisms associated with exposure to several neurotoxic chemicals, specifically 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), rotenone, paraquat (PQ), dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane (DDT), dieldrin, manganese (Mn), and vanadium (V). Our overview of the current findings from cellular, animal, and human studies of PD provides information for possible intervention strategies aimed at halting the initiation and exacerbation of environmentally linked PD.

Abstract
Studies have emphasised the importance of combustion-derived particles in eliciting adverse health effects, especially those produced by diesel vehicles. In contrast, few investigations have explored the potential toxicity of particles derived from tyre and brake wear, despite their significant contributions to total roadside particulate mass. The objective of this study was to compare the relative toxicity of compositionally distinct brake abrasion dust (BAD) and diesel exhaust particles (DEP) in a cellular model that is relevant to human airways. Although BAD contained considerably more metals/metalloids than DEP (as determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry) similar toxicological profiles were observed in U937 monocyte-derived macrophages following 24 h exposures to 4-25 μg ml-1 doses of either particle type. Responses to the particles were characterised by dose-dependent decreases in mitochondrial depolarisation (p ≤ 0.001), increased secretion of IL-8, IL-10 and TNF-α (p ≤ 0.05 to p ≤ 0.001) and decreased phagocytosis of S. aureus (p ≤ 0.001). This phagocytic deficit recovered, and the inflammatory response resolved when challenged cells were incubated for a further 24 h in particle-free media. These responses were abrogated by metal chelation using desferroxamine. At minimally cytotoxic doses both DEP and BAD perturbed bacterial clearance and promoted inflammatory responses in U937 cells with similar potency. These data emphasise the requirement to consider contributions of abrasion particles to traffic-related clinical health effects.

Abstract
Vanadium compounds are promising antidiabetic agents. In addition to regulating glucose metabolism, they also alter lipid metabolism. Due to the clear association between diabetes and atherosclerosis, the purpose of the present study was to assess the effect of sodium orthovanadate on the amount of individual fatty acids and the expression of stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase (SCD or Δ9-desaturase), Δ5-desaturase, and Δ6-desaturase in macrophages. THP-1 macrophages differentiated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) were incubated in vitro for 48 h with 1 μM or 10 μM sodium orthovanadate (Na3VO4). The estimation of fatty acid composition was performed by gas chromatography. Expressions of the genes SCD, fatty acid desaturase 1 (FADS1), and fatty acid desaturase 2 (FADS2) were tested by qRT-PCR. Sodium orthovanadate in THP-1 macrophages increased the amount of saturated fatty acids (SFA) such as palmitic acid and stearic acid, as well as monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA)-oleic acid and palmitoleic acid. Sodium orthovanadate caused an upregulation of SCD expression. Sodium orthovanadate at the given concentrations did not affect the amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) such as linoleic acid, arachidonic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). In conclusion, sodium orthovanadate changed SFA and MUFA composition in THP-1 macrophages and increased expression of SCD. Sodium orthovanadate did not affect the amount of any PUFA. This was associated with a lack of influence on the expression of FADS1 and FADS2.

Abstract
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2) is a neurological disorder characterized by cerebellar dysfunction. The possible association between metals and neurodegenerative diseases is under constant investigation, with particular focus on their involvement in oxidative stress and their potential role as biomarkers of these pathologies. Whole blood samples of SCA2 patients and of healthy individuals were subjected to multi-elemental analysis by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Reduced levels of manganese and copper were found in SCA2 patients, while zinc and vanadium concentrations were significantly higher in patients compared to controls. Copper, manganese and zinc are cofactors of many enzymes (such as superoxide dismutase, SOD) involved in the cellular antioxidant response, whereas vanadium is a transition metal able to produce reactive radicals. A marked decrease of the antioxidant response has been previously reported in SCA2 patients. We suggest that an unbalance of transitional elements in the blood may reflect altered antioxidant homeostasis in SCA2 patients and could constitute a future peripheral biomarker for this disease. In addition, we suggest a possible role of vanadium in the altered lipid metabolism of SCA2 patients.

Abstract
Vanadium, atomic number 23, is a transition metal widely distributed in nature. It is a major contaminant of fossil fuels and is widely used in industry as catalysts, in welding, and making steel alloys. Over the years, vanadium compounds have been generating interests due to their use as therapeutic agents in the control of diabetes, tuberculosis, and some neoplasms. However, the toxicity of vanadium compounds is well documented in literature with occupational exposure of workers in vanadium allied industries, environmental pollution from combustion of fossil fuels and industrial exhausts receiving concerns as major sources of toxicity and a likely predisposing factor in the aetiopathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. A lot has been done to understand the neurotoxic effects of vanadium, its mechanisms of action and possible antidotes. Sequel to our review of the subject in 2011, this present review is to detail the recent insights gained in vanadium neurotoxicity.

Abstract
Elevated circulatory free fatty acids (FFAs) especially saturated FFAs, such as palmitate (PA), are detrimental to the heart. However, mechanisms responsible for this phenomenon remain unknown. Here, the role of JAK2/STAT3 in PA-induced cytotoxicity was investigated in cardiomyocytes. We demonstrate that PA suppressed the JAK2/STAT3 pathway by dephosphorylation of JAK2 (Y1007/1008) and STAT3 (Y705), and thus blocked the translocation of STAT3 into the nucleus. Conversely, phosphorylation of S727, another phosphorylated site of STAT3, was increased in response to PA treatment. Pretreatment of JNK inhibitor, but not p38 MAPK inhibitor, inhibited STAT3 (S727) activation induced by PA and rescued the phosphorylation of STAT3 (Y705). The data suggested that JNK may be another upstream factor regulating STAT3, and verified the important function of P-STAT3 (Y705) in PA-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Sodium orthovanadate (SOV), a protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, obviously inhibited PA-induced apoptosis by restoring JAK2/STAT3 pathways. This effect was diminished by STAT3 inhibitor Stattic. Collectively, our data suggested a novel mechanism that the inhibition of JAK2/STAT3 activation was responsible for palmitic lipotoxicity and SOV may act as a potential therapeutic agent by targeting JAK2/STAT3 in lipotoxic cardiomyopathy treatment.

Abstract
To elucidate the physiological and morphological responses generated by vanadium (V) in plants, hydroponic culture experiments were performed with swamp morning glory (Ipomoea aquatica Forsk) exposed to 0 mg L(-1) to 2.50 mg L(-1) pentavalent V [V(V)] in Hoagland nutrient solutions. The concentration of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and carotene peaked at a V(V) concentration of 0.05 mg L(-1) and gradually decreased at higher V(V) concentrations. Similarly, the plant biomass was stimulated at low levels of V(V) and was inhibited when V(V) concentrations exceeded 0.1 mg L(-1). Pentavalent V had negative effects on the uptake of phosphorus (P) by roots, shoots, and leaves. The biological absorption coefficients of V of the roots were higher than those of the aerial parts. Under low concentrations of V(V) exposure, the predominant species of V in the aerial parts was tetravalent V [V(IV)], whereas V(V) became more prevalent when concentrations of V(V) in the solution was higher than 0.50 mg L(-1). In the roots, however, the concentrations of V(V) were always higher than those of the V(IV), except in the control group. Organelles in the V(V)-treated leaves were distorted, and the periplasmic space became wider. These results indicate V(V) has concentration-dependent effects on the physiological properties of swamp morning glory, whereas the plant has the ability to develop self-protective function to adapt to the toxicity of V(V).

Abstract
Metal pollution is an important issue worldwide, with various documented cases of metal toxicity in mining areas, industries, coal power plants and agriculture sector. Heavy metal polluted soils pose severe problems to plants, water resources, environment and nutrition. Among all non-essential metals, vanadium (V) is becoming a serious matter of discussion for the scientists who deals with heavy metals. Due to its mobility from soil to plants, it causes adverse effects to human beings. This review article illustrates briefly about V, its role and shows the progress about V research so far done globally in the light of the previous work which may assist in inter-disciplinary studies to evaluate the ecological importance of V toxicity.

Abstract
This paper discusses how the activity and expression of cyclooxygenases are influenced by vanadium compounds at anticancer concentrations and recorded in inorganic vanadium poisonings. We refer mainly to the effects of vanadate (orthovanadate), vanadyl and pervanadate ions; the main focus is placed on their impact on intracellular signaling. We describe the exact mechanism of the effect of vanadium compounds on protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTP), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), PLCγ, Src, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades, transcription factor NF-κB, the effect on the proteolysis of COX-2 and the activity of cPLA2. For a better understanding of these processes, a lot of space is devoted to the transformation of vanadium compounds within the cell and the molecular influence on the direct targets of the discussed vanadium compounds.

Abstract
Spontaneous and stimulated lipid peroxidation (LPO) after vanadate and magnesium treatment was studied in kidney supernatants obtained from outbred 5-month-old, albino male Wistar rats. The 2-month-old animals daily received: group I (control), deionized water to drink; group II, water solution of sodium metavanadate, NaVO(3) (SMV, 0.125 mg V ml(-1)); group III, water solution of magnesium sulfate, MgSO(4) (MS, 0.06 mg Mg ml(-1)); and group IV, water solution of SMV-MS at the same concentrations as in groups II and III for V and Mg, respectively, over a 12-week period. FeSO(4), NaVO(3) and MgSO(4) were selected as agents that may modify LPO process in in vitro conditions. Spontaneous malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in kidney supernatants increased significantly in the rats in groups II and IV, compared with groups I and III; and they were also significantly higher in all the groups of rats compared with the liver supernatants. The total antioxidant status (TAS) in groups II and IV tended to be higher too. Vanadium concentration in the kidney of the rats in groups II and IV increased, whereas the kidney Mg content in groups II, III and IV decreased, compared with levels in the liver. As the two-way ANOVA indicated, the changes in the basal MDA level, TAS and Mg concentration in the liver of rats at combined V and Mg application only resulted from independent action of V. As far as the in vitro results are concerned, in the supernatants obtained from the rats in groups II and IV, a significant increase in MDA level was demonstrated in the presence of 30 microm of exogenous FeSO(4) as well as 30, 100, 200 and 400 microm NaVO(3) and 100, 200, 400, 600, 800 and 1000 microm MgSO(4), compared with groups I and III. The 600, 800 and 1000 microm of exogenous MgSO(4) also significantly elevated MDA production in the supernatants obtained from the rats in group III, compared with spontaneously formed MDA in the same supernatants. The three-way ANOVA showed that the changes in LPO induced by in vitro treatment of kidney supernatants with exogenous Fe or V or Mg (600, 800 and 1000 microm) were a consequence of independent action of those metals and they also resulted from the interactions between exogenous Fe (Fe(exog)) and endogenous V (V(end)) and between V(end) and exogenous V (V(exog)). In conclusion, V (as NaVO(3)) consumed by the rats with drinking water at a dose of 12.9 mg V kg(-1) b.w. per 24 h for 12 weeks increased the basal LPO and markedly enhanced TAS in the renal tissue. Its pro-oxidant potential was also found in in vitro conditions. The Mg dose (6 mg Mg kg(-1) b.w. per 24 h) ingested by the rats together with V (12.7 mg V kg(-1) b.w. per 24 h) neither reduced nor intensified the spontaneous LPO, compared with V-only intoxicated animals; however, the stimulating effect of Mg on LPO was revealed in in vitro conditions.

Abstract
Selected biochemical parameters were studied in the blood of outbred, male Wistar rats which daily received to drink deionized water (Group I, control) or solutions of: sodium metavanadate (SMV; 0.100 mg V/mL)-Group II; chromium chloride (CC; 0.004 mg Cr/mL)-Group III; and SMV-CC (0.100 mg V and 0.004 mg Cr/mL)-Group IV for a 12-week period. The diet and fluid intake, body weight gain, and food efficiency ratio (FER) diminished significantly in the rats of Groups II and IV, compared with Groups I and III. The plasma total antioxidant status (TAS) as well as the MDA and the L: -ascorbic acid level in the erythrocytes (RBCs) remained unchanged in all the groups, whereas the plasma L: -ascorbic acid concentration decreased markedly in Group II, compared with Group III. The activities of Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD), catalase (CAT), cellular glutathione peroxidase (cGSH-Px), and glutathione reductase (GR) in RBCs remained unaltered in all the treated rats. However, the activity of glutathione S-transferase (GST) and the content of reduced glutathione (GSH) in RBCs decreased and increased, respectively, in Groups II, III, and IV, compared with Group I. A vanadium-chromium interaction which affected the GST activity was also found. To summarize, SMV and CC administered separately or in combination in drinking water for 12 weeks did not alter either lipid peroxidation (LPO) or the activities of Cu,Zn-SOD, CAT, cGSH-Px, and GR, which allows a conclusion that both metals in the doses ingested did not reveal their pro-oxidant potential on RBCs.

Abstract
Organophosphate compounds are very toxic chemicals and used in widespread applications. The present study was designed to examine the role of exogenous melatonin against organophosphate toxicity in tissues (brain, heart, jejunum, kidney, liver, lung, muscle and pancreas) trace and major element levels of rats. Trace and major element concentrations in the tissues were measured in the sham group, the control group, prophylaxis with the melatonin group and therapy with the melatonin group (TM) by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy. Statistically significant differences among the experimental groups were detected for some tissue trace and major element concentrations. In the brain tissue, the Al, Mn and Se concentrations in the sham group were significantly higher than those in the control group (p<0.05). In the heart tissue, the Cu, Mn and Se concentrations in the sham group were significantly increased than those in the control group (p<0.05). In the kidney tissue, trace and major element concentrations in the TM group were significantly lower than those in the sham group (Fe and Mn; p<0.05, Cu, Mo, Ni, Ti, V and Zn; p<0.01). In the liver, Mg, Al, Zn and Ca concentrations in the TM group were significantly higher than those in the fenthion-treated control group (p<0.01). In the muscle tissue, element concentrations in the TM group were significantly lower when compared with the sham groups (Ca and Si; p<0.01). The Al, Cr, Mo, Ni, Si and Zn element concentrations were markedly decreased in the control group as compared with the TM group in the pancreas tissue (p<0.01). In conclusion, according to the results of the present study the major findings are that the fenthion-treated rat's tissue element levels were effected and the melatonin may normalize the altered levels of some trace and major elements of the tissues in organophosphate toxicity.

Abstract
The effect of V(5+) and Mg treatment on spontaneous and stimulated lipid peroxidation (LPO) was studied in liver supernatants obtained from outbred 5-month-old, albino male Wistar rats. The 2-month-old animals daily received deionized water to drink (control, group I); group II - water solution of NaVO(3) (SMV) at a concentration of 0.125 mg V ml(-1); group III - water solution of MgSO(4) (MS) at a concentration of 0.06 mg Mg ml(-1), group IV - water solution of SMV-MS at the same concentrations as in groups II and III for V and Mg, respectively, over a 12-week period. Three metal salts were selected as agents that may modify the LPO process (FeSO(4), NaVO(3) and MgSO(4)). V-intoxicated rats and those treated with V and Mg in combination had higher liver spontaneous malondialdehyde (MDA) formation, compared with the control and Mg-supplemented animals. In the same groups of animals the total antioxidant status (TAS) was also significantly lowered, in comparison with the control. In the supernatants obtained from the above-mentioned groups of rats a significant increase in MDA concentration was found in the presence of exogenous 30 microm FeSO(4) as well as 30, 100, 200 and 400 microm NaVO(3), compared with groups I and III. Significantly elevated MDA production was also observed in the supernatants obtained from the rats exposed to V and Mg in combination in the presence of exogenous 100 and 200 microm MgSO(4) in comparison with the control and group III as well as in the presence of exogenous 400 and 600 microm MgSO(4) compared only with group III. In vitro treatment with 1000 microm MgSO(4 )of control liver supernatants and those obtained from group III significantly enhanced MDA level, compared with spontaneous MDA formation. The two-way ANOVA indicated that the changes in the basal MDA level and in TAS in the rats at combined V and Mg application, were not due to V-Mg interaction, but resulted from independent action of V. In addition, the three-way ANOVA revealed that the changes in LPO induced by in vitro treatment of liver supernatants with exogenous Fe or V or Mg (600, 800 and 1000 microm) were a consequence of independent action of those metals and they also resulted from the interactions between Fe(exog) and V(end) and between V(end) and V(exog). In conclusion, V consumed by the rats with drinking water at a dose of 12 mg V kg(-1) body weight per 24 h for 12 weeks decreased TAS and enhanced spontaneous LPO in the hepatic tissue, which confirms its pro-oxidant potential, was also found in in vitro conditions with regard to LPO. Mg administered to rats in combination with V, at the concentration used, neither reduced nor intensified the basal LPO, compared with V-only treated animals; however, its stimulating effect on LPO was revealed in in vitro conditions, which requires further study.

Abstract
Environmental exposure to neurotoxic metals through various sources including exposure to welding fumes has been linked to an increased incidence of Parkinson's disease (PD). Welding fumes contain many different metals including vanadium typically present as particulates containing vanadium pentoxide (V2O5). However, possible neurotoxic effects of this metal oxide on dopaminergic neuronal cells are not well studied. In the present study, we characterized vanadium-induced oxidative stress-dependent cellular events in cell culture models of PD. V2O5 was neurotoxic to dopaminergic neuronal cells including primary nigral dopaminergic neurons and the EC50 was determined to be 37 microM in N27 dopaminergic neuronal cell model. The neurotoxic effect was accompanied by a time-dependent uptake of vanadium and upregulation of metal transporter proteins Tf and DMT1 in N27 cells. Additionally, vanadium resulted in a threefold increase in reactive oxygen species generation, followed by release of mitochondrial cytochrome c into cytoplasm and subsequent activation of caspase-9 (>fourfold) and caspase-3 (>ninefold). Interestingly, vanadium exposure induced proteolytic cleavage of native protein kinase Cdelta (PKCdelta, 72-74 kDa) to yield a 41 kDa catalytically active fragment resulting in a persistent increase in PKCdelta kinase activity. Co-treatment with pan-caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK significantly blocked vanadium-induced PKCdelta proteolytic activation, indicating that caspases mediate PKCdelta cleavage. Also, co-treatment with Z-VAD-FMK almost completely inhibited V2O5-induced DNA fragmentation. Furthermore, PKCdelta knockdown using siRNA protected N27 cells from V2O5-induced apoptotic cell death. Collectively, these results demonstrate that vanadium can exert neurotoxic effects in dopaminergic neuronal cells via caspase-3-dependent PKCdelta cleavage, suggesting that metal exposure may promote nigral dopaminergic degeneration.

Abstract
The purpose of these studies was to evaluate the effect of selected vanadium and magnesium doses on certain haematological and biochemical blood parameters in rats. Outbred 2-month-old, albino male Wistar rats received for a period of 6 weeks, as a sole drinking liquid, the following water solutions: group II, sodium metavanadate (SMV) at a concentration of 0.125 mg V/mL; group III, magnesium sulphate (MS) at a concentration of 0.06 mg Mg/mL; and group IV, SMV-MS solution at the same concentrations. The control group received at this time deionized water to drink. It was calculated that group II ingested with drinking water about 10.7 mg V/kg b. w./24 h, group III 6 mg Mg/kg b. w./24 h, and group IV about 9 mg V and 4.5 mg Mg/kg b. w./24 h. The exposure to vanadium alone (group II) led to a statistically significant decrease in body weight gain, food and fluid intakes. Moreover, in the same group of rats a statistically significant decrease in the RBC count, Hb concentration, MCV, and MCH values was demonstrated. Additionally, a statistically significant decrease in the plasma L-ascorbic acid concentration and a significant increase in MDA concentration in blood in this group were found. Instead, after the administration of magnesium alone (group III), a statistically significant decrease in the fluid intake and in the L-ascorbic acid concentration in plasma was noted. Furthermore, in the same group of rats a statistically significant increase in Hb level and in the plasma magnesium concentration was demonstrated. Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) did not reveal the interactions between V and Mg.

Abstract
Since chromium(III) was demonstrated to have antioxidative action, we have decided to study the effect of this element on V-induced LPO in liver and kidney of rats. Outbred 2-month-old, albino male Wistar rats received daily, for a period of 12 weeks: group I (control), deionized water to drink; group II, sodium metavanadate (SMV) solution at a concentration of 0.100mgV/mL; group III, chromium chloride (CC) solution at a concentration of 0.004mgCr/mL and group IV, SMV-CC solution at a concentration of 0.100mgV and 0.004mgCr/mL. The particular experimental groups took up with drinking water about 8.6mgV/kg b.w./24h (group II), 0.4mgCr/kg b.w./24h (group III), 9mgV and 0.36mgCr/kg b.w./24h (group IV). The V- or Cr-treated groups had higher concentrations of these two elements in liver and kidney compared to the controls. The administration of vanadium alone caused a significant decrease in fluid intake and in body weight gain compared to the controls. In liver supernatants obtained from all tested rats a statistically significant increase in MDA concentration was demonstrated in spontaneous LPO in comparison with the control rats. Moreover, in rats intoxicated with vanadium alone a statistically significant increase in liver MDA level was observed in the presence of 100microM NaVO(3). Instead, in supernatants of liver received from rats treated with chromium alone, a statistically significant increase in MDA concentration in comparison with the controls was found in the presence of 400microM NaVO(3). In kidney supernatants obtained from rats treated with chromium alone, a statistically significant increase in lipid peroxidation was shown in the presence of 30microM FeSO(4) and 400microM NaVO(3). These results show that the tested doses of vanadium(V) and chromium(III) ingested by rats with their drinking water caused significant alterations in internal organs, especially in liver. Under the conditions of our experiment, Cr(III) did not demonstrate antioxidant action, it rather had an oxidant effect.

Abstract
L-Ascorbic acid interacts with vanadium(V) over the pH range of 0.4-7.0 to form three different coordination complexes. Both inner- and outer-sphere electron-transfer pathways are proposed to form vanadium(IV) complexes with L-ascorbate or dehydroascorbate, respectively. Effects of the pH on the coordination of L-ascorbic acid to the vanadium(V) center were observed and are presumably related to the speciation of the vanadium(V) ion. Three vanadium(IV) complexes were observed using ambient-temperature electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Two of these complexes are proposed to be vanadium(IV) L-ascorbate complexes, and one is consistent with a vanadium(IV) dehydroascorbic acid complex proposed earlier. These reduction reactions will occur under physiological conditions and could be important to the reduction of vanadium(V)-containing coordination complexes used as insulin-enhancing agents for treatment of diabetes.

Abstract
Oxygen-free radicals, more generally known as reactive oxygen species (ROS) along with reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are well recognised for playing a dual role as both deleterious and beneficial species. The "two-faced" character of ROS is substantiated by growing body of evidence that ROS within cells act as secondary messengers in intracellular signalling cascades, which induce and maintain the oncogenic phenotype of cancer cells, however, ROS can also induce cellular senescence and apoptosis and can therefore function as anti-tumourigenic species. The cumulative production of ROS/RNS through either endogenous or exogenous insults is termed oxidative stress and is common for many types of cancer cell that are linked with altered redox regulation of cellular signalling pathways. Oxidative stress induces a cellular redox imbalance which has been found to be present in various cancer cells compared with normal cells; the redox imbalance thus may be related to oncogenic stimulation. DNA mutation is a critical step in carcinogenesis and elevated levels of oxidative DNA lesions (8-OH-G) have been noted in various tumours, strongly implicating such damage in the etiology of cancer. It appears that the DNA damage is predominantly linked with the initiation process. This review examines the evidence for involvement of the oxidative stress in the carcinogenesis process. Attention is focused on structural, chemical and biochemical aspects of free radicals, the endogenous and exogenous sources of their generation, the metal (iron, copper, chromium, cobalt, vanadium, cadmium, arsenic, nickel)-mediated formation of free radicals (e.g. Fenton chemistry), the DNA damage (both mitochondrial and nuclear), the damage to lipids and proteins by free radicals, the phenomenon of oxidative stress, cancer and the redox environment of a cell, the mechanisms of carcinogenesis and the role of signalling cascades by ROS; in particular, ROS activation of AP-1 (activator protein) and NF-kappaB (nuclear factor kappa B) signal transduction pathways, which in turn lead to the transcription of genes involved in cell growth regulatory pathways. The role of enzymatic (superoxide dismutase (Cu, Zn-SOD, Mn-SOD), catalase, glutathione peroxidase) and non-enzymatic antioxidants (Vitamin C, Vitamin E, carotenoids, thiol antioxidants (glutathione, thioredoxin and lipoic acid), flavonoids, selenium and others) in the process of carcinogenesis as well as the antioxidant interactions with various regulatory factors, including Ref-1, NF-kappaB, AP-1 are also reviewed.

Abstract
Vanadium compounds exert preventive effects against chemical carcinogenesis on animals, by modifying, mainly, various xenobiotic enzymes, inhibiting, thus, carcinogen-derived active metabolites. Studies on various cell lines reveal that vanadium exerts its antitumor effects through inhibition of cellular tyrosine phosphatases and/or activation of tyrosine phosphorylases. Both effects activate signal transduction pathways leading either to apoptosis and/or to activation of tumor suppressor genes. Furthermore, vanadium compounds may induce cell-cycle arrest and/or cytotoxic effects through DNA cleavage and fragmentation and plasma membrane lipoperoxidation. Reactive oxygen species generated by Fenton-like reactions and/or during the intracellular reduction of V(V) to V(IV) by, mainly, NADPH, participate to the majority of the vanadium-induced intracellular events. Vanadium may also exert inhibitory effects on cancer cell metastatic potential through modulation of cellular adhesive molecules, and reverse antineoplastic drug resistance. It also possesses low toxicity that, in combination with the synthesis of new, more potent and better tolerated complexes, may establish vanadium as an effective non-platinum, metal antitumor agent.

Abstract
To shed light on the role of V(V) complexes as pro-drugs for their V(IV) analogues, the kinetics of the reduction reactions of [VO2(ma)2]- or [VO2(ema)2]- (Hma = maltol, Hema = ethylmaltol), with ascorbic acid or glutathione, have been studied in aqueous solution by spectrophotometric and magnetic resonance methods. EPR and 51V NMR studies suggested that the vanadium(V) in each complex was reduced to vanadium(IV) during the reactions. All the reactions studied showed first-order kinetics when the concentration of ascorbic acid or glutathione was in large excess and the observed first-order rate constants have a linear relationship with the concentrations of reductant (ascorbic acid or glutathione). Potentiometric results revealed that the most important species in the neutral pH range is [VO2(L)2]- for the V(V) system where L is either ma- or ema-. An acid dependence mechanism was proposed from kinetic studies with varying pH and varying maltol concentration. The good fits of the second order rate constant versus pH or the total concentration of maltol, and the good agreement of the constants obtained between fittings, strongly supported the mechanism. Under the same conditions, the reaction rate of [VO2(ma)2]- with glutathione is about 2000 times slower than that of [VO2(ma)2]- with ascorbic acid, but an acid dependence mechanism can also be used to explain the results for the reduction with glutathione. Replacing the methyl group in maltol with an ethyl group has little influence on the reduction rate with ascorbic acid, and the kinetics are the same no matter whether [VO2(ma)2]- or [VO2(ema)2]- is reduced.

Abstract
Recently, we have shown that oral administrations of vanadyl (+4 oxidation state of vanadium) complexes normalize the blood glucose level of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats (STZ-rats). To develop clinically useful insulin-mimetic vanadyl complexes, clarification of the pharmacokinetic features of vanadyl compounds is essential. First, we investigated the absorption processes of three compounds, an ionic form of vanadyl sulfate (VS) and the complex forms of bis(picolinato)oxovanadium(IV) (VO(pic)2) and bis(6-methylpicolinato)oxovanadium(IV) (VO(6mpa)2), from the gastrointestinal tract of healthy rats. The concentration curves of paramagnetic vanadyl species in the blood of rats after oral administration of these compounds, as monitored by X-band electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy, exhibited biphasic increasing patterns, indicating that these compounds were absorbed from more than two sites in the gastrointestinal tract. The bioavailability of the compounds was enhanced in the following order on both oral and intraperitoneal administration: VO(6mpa)2 > VO(pic)2 > VS. In addition, bioavailability of the VO(6mpa)2 on ileal administration was enhanced compared with that using other administration sites such as the stomach and jejunum, and resulted in an enhancement about 1.8 fold that compared with oral administration. On the basis of these results, we concluded that the bioavailability of the complex is enhanced most effectively by delivery of the VO(6mpa)2 complex to the ileum.

Abstract
Epidemiologic studies have shown causal relationships between air pollution particles and adverse health effects in susceptible subpopulations. Fly ash particles (containing water-soluble and insoluble metals) are a component of ambient air particulate pollution and may contribute to particulate-induced health effects. Some of the pathological effects after inhalation of the particles may be due to reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by metal-catalyzed reactions. In this investigation, we analyzed emission source particulates oil fly ash (OFA) and coal fly ash (CFA) for metal content and solubility in relation to their ability to induce 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) hydroxylation and DNA damage as measured by 8-oxo-dG formation by HPLC/UV-electrochemical detection (ECD). Water-soluble vanadium and nickel were present at the highest concentrations, and iron was present in trace amounts in OFA (5.1% V, 1.0% Ni, and 0.4% Fe by weight). In contrast, CFA comprised mostly of water-insoluble aluminosilicates and iron (9.2% Al, 12.2% Si, and 2.8% Fe by weight). As a first approach to gain insight into the mode of action of these particulates, we examined metal species-catalyzed kinetics of dG hydroxylation. Metal species at a concentration of 0.1 mM in the incubation mixture containing 0.1 mM dG under ambient air at room temperature catalyzed maximum 8-oxo-dG formation at 15 min with yields ranging from 0.05 to 0.17%, decreasing in the following order: vanadium(IV) > iron(II) > vanadium(V) > iron(III) > or = nickel(II). Insoluble Fe(III) oxide (Fe(2)O(3)) under similar conditions had no effect. Consistent with these results, OFA rich in vanadium and nickel concentrations showed a dose-dependent increase in the level of dG hydroxylation to 8-oxo-dG formation at particulate concentrations of 0.1-1 mg/mL (p < 0.05). In contrast, CFA with high concentrations of aluminosilicates and iron did not result in a significant increase in the level of 8-oxo-dG over that of the control, i.e., dG (p > 0.05). DMSO, a (*)OH scavenger, inhibited OFA-induced 8-oxo-dG formation, and metal ion chelators, deferoxamine (DFX), DTPA, and ferrozine blocked OFA-induced 8-oxo-dG formation. OFA and CFA induced 8-oxo-dG formation in a pattern similar to that observed for dG hydroxylation when calf thymus DNA was used as a substrate. Treatment of OFA particles with DFX before reacting with DNA or addition of a catalase in the incubation mixture significantly suppressed 8-oxo-dG formation (p < 0.05). These results suggest that metal availability, but not the concentration of metals present in CFA and OFA, is critical in mediating molecular oxygen-dependent dG hydroxylation and DNA base damage.

Abstract
Different aspects of the coordination chemistry of oxovanadium(IV) and oxovanadium(V), relevant to the bioinorganic chemistry of vanadium, are presented. Some of the investigated complexes are good models for different aspects of the metabolism and detoxification of vanadium or for a better characterization and understanding of the structural and electronic peculiarities of the coordination spheres of VO2+ and VO2+ in biomolecules. Their structural, spectroscopic and magnetic properties are briefly discussed. The investigated systems include ligands such as reduced and oxidized glutathione, L-ascorbic acid, nucleotides and related systems, carbohydrates, phosphates, carboxylic acids, oxine derivatives and some others.
