Abstract
Red blood cells (RBC) are specifically differentiated to transport oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood and they lack most organelles, including mitochondria. The autoxidation of hemoglobin constitutes a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Nitric oxide, which is produced by endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS3) or via the hemoglobin-mediated conversion of nitrite, interacts with ROS and results in the production of reactive nitrogen oxide species. Herein we present an overview of anemic diseases that are closely related to oxidative damage. Because the compensation of proteins by means of gene expression does not proceed in enucleated cells, antioxidative and redox systems play more important roles in maintaining the homeostasis of RBC against oxidative insult compared to ordinary cells. Defects in hemoglobin and enzymes that are involved in energy production and redox reactions largely trigger oxidative damage to RBC. The results of studies using genetically modified mice suggest that antioxidative enzymes, notably superoxide dismutase 1 and peroxiredoxin 2, play essential roles in coping with oxidative damage in erythroid cells, and their absence limits erythropoiesis, the life-span of RBC and consequently results in the development of anemia. The degeneration of the machinery involved in the proteolytic removal of damaged proteins appears to be associated with hemolytic events. The ubiquitin-proteasome system is the dominant machinery, not only for the proteolytic removal of damaged proteins in erythroid cells but also for the development of erythropoiesis. Hence, despite the fact that it is less abundant in RBC compared to ordinary cells, the aberrant ubiquitin-proteasome system may be associated with the development of anemic diseases via the accumulation of damaged proteins, as typified in sickle cell disease, and impaired erythropoiesis.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxins (PRDXs) are members of a highly conserved peroxidase family and maintain intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) homeostasis. The family members are expressed in most organisms and involved in various biological processes, such as cellular protection against ROS, inflammation, carcinogenesis, atherosclerosis, heart diseases, and metabolism. In mammals, six PRDX members have been identified and are subdivided into three subfamilies: typical 2-Cys (PRDX1, PRDX2, PRDX3, and PRDX4), atypical 2-Cys (PRDX5), and 1-Cys (PRDX6) subfamilies. Knockout mouse models of PRDXs have been developed to investigate their in vivo roles. This review presents an overview of the knockout mouse models of PRDXs with emphases on the biological and physiological changes of these model mice.

Abstract
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) have been known to exhibit neurotoxicity in rats; however, the underlying mechanism remains unknown and there is no available intervention. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of oxidative and nitrosative stress in the neurotoxicity in the cerebral cortex and primary neurons in rats following the BDE-153 treatment. Compared to the untreated group, BDE-153 treatment significantly induced the neurotoxic effects in rats, as manifested by the increased lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activities and cell apoptosis rates, and the decreased neurotrophic factor contents and cholinergic enzyme activities in rats' cerebral cortices and primary neurons. When compared to the untreated group, the oxidative and nitrosative stress had occurred in the cerebral cortex or primary neurons in rats following the BDE-153 treatment, as manifested by the increments in levels of reactive oxygenspecies (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), nitric oxide (NO), and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) mRNA and protein expressions, along with the decline in levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, glutathione (GSH) content, and peroxiredoxin I (Prx I) and Prx II mRNA and protein expressions. In addition, the ROS scavenger N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) or NO scavenger NG-Nitro-l-arginine (L-NNA) significantly rescued the LDH leakage and cell survival, reversed the neurotrophin contents and cholinergic enzymes, mainly via regaining balance between oxidation/nitrosation and antioxidation. Overall, our findings suggested that oxidative and nitrosative stresses are involved in the neurotoxicity induced by BDE-153, and that the antioxidation is a potential targeted intervention.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxin (PRDX)1 is an antioxidant that detoxifies hydrogen peroxide and peroxinitrite. Compared with wild-type (WT) mice, Prdx1-deficient (Prdx1-/-) mice showed increased susceptibility to Mycobacterium tuberculosis and lower levels of IFN-γ and IFN-γ-producing CD4+ T cells in the lungs after M. tuberculosis infection. IL-12 production, c-Rel induction, and p38 MAPK activation levels were lower in Prdx1-/- than in WT bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). IFN-γ-activated Prdx1-/- BMDMs did not kill M. tubercuosis effectively. NO production levels were lower, and arginase activity and arginase 1 (Arg1) expression levels were higher, in IFN-γ-activated Prdx1-/- than in WT BMDMs after M. tuberculosis infection. An arginase inhibitor, Nω-hydroxy-nor-arginine, restored antimicrobial activity and NO production in IFN-γ-activated Prdx1-/- BMDMs after M. tuberculosis infection. These results suggest that PRDX1 contributes to host defenses against M. tuberculosis PRDX1 positively regulates IL-12 production by inducing c-Rel and activating p38 MAPK, and it positively regulates NO production by suppressing Arg1 expression in macrophages infected with M. tuberculosis.

Abstract
Redox signaling is a critical component of cell signaling pathways that are involved in the regulation of cell growth, metabolism, hormone signaling, immune regulation and variety of other physiological functions. Peroxiredoxin (Prx) is a family of thiol-based peroxidase that acts as a regulator of redox signaling. Members of Prx family can act as antioxidants and chaperones. Sulfiredoxin (Srx) is an antioxidant protein that exclusively reduces over-oxidized typical 2-Cys Prx. Srx has different affinities for individual Prx and it also catalyzes the deglutathionylation of variety of substrates. Individual component of the Srx-Prx system plays critical role in carcinogenesis by modulating cell signaling pathways involved in cell proliferation, migration and metastasis. Expression levels of individual component of the Srx-Prx axis have been correlated with patient survival outcome in multiple cancer types. This review will summarize the molecular basis of differences in the affinity of Srx for individual Prx and the role of individual component of the Srx-Prx system in tumor progression and metastasis. This enhanced understanding of molecular aspects of Srx-Prx interaction and its role in cell signal transduction will help define the Srx-Prx system as a future therapeutic target in human cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cisplatin is one of the most potent chemotherapeutic agents used to treat cancer. However, cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, which is partly caused by oxidative damage, is a serious problem. We previously showed that murine embryonic fibroblasts deficient in Peroxiredoxin I (Prx I), a major Nrf2-linked anti-oxidant enzyme, are susceptible to cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity. In the present study, we examined the role of Prx I against cisplatin-induced renal injury in vivo using Prx I-null mice. METHODS Prx I-null mice and wild-type (WT) mice were given an intraperitoneal injection of cisplatin, and tissues were removed and evaluated histopathologically. In addition, gene and protein expression of efflux transporters was analyzed. RESULTS In contrast to an in vitro cell study, Prx I-null mice exhibited less cisplatin-induced renal damage than WT mice in histological and blood biochemical analyses. Moreover, Prx I-null mice showed a higher clearance rate of cisplatin than WT mice following intraperitoneal cisplatin injection. Consistent with these results, Prx I-null mice exhibited higher expression of renal efflux transporters Mrp2 and Mrp4 compared with WT mice under both basal and the cisplatin-induced conditions. We suggest the enhanced transcriptional activity of c-Myc in Prx I-null mice may partly contribute the enhanced expression of renal efflux transporters. CONCLUSION In summary, the enhanced clearance rate of cisplatin significantly attenuates nephrotoxicity in Prx I-null mice.

Abstract
Cell stress proteins (CSPs) are a large and heterogenous family of proteins, sharing two main characteristics: their levels and/or location are modified under stress and most of them can exert a chaperon function inside the cells. Nonetheless, they are also involved in the modulation of several mechanisms, both at the intracellular and the extracellular compartments. There are more than 100 proteins belonging to the CSPs family, among them the thioredoxin (TRX) system, which is the focus of the present paper. TRX system is composed of several proteins such as TRX and peroxiredoxin (PRDX), two thiol-containing enzymes that are key players in redox homeostasis due to their ability to scavenge potential harmful reactive oxygen species. In addition to their main role as antioxidants, recent data highlights their function in several processes such as cell signalling, immune inflammatory responses, or apoptosis, all of them key mechanisms involved in atherothrombosis. Moreover, since TRX and PRDX are present in the pathological vascular wall and can be secreted under prooxidative conditions to the circulation, several studies have addressed their role as diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic biomarkers of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).

Abstract
Peroxiredoxins possess thioredoxin or glutathione peroxidase and chaperone-like activities and thereby protect cells from oxidative insults. Recent studies, however, reveal additional functions of peroxiredoxins in gene expression and inflammation-related biological reactions such as tissue repair, parasite infection and tumor progression. Notably, peroxiredoxin 1, the major mammalian peroxiredoxin family protein, directly interacts with transcription factors such as c-Myc and NF-κB in the nucleus. Additionally, peroxiredoxin 1 is secreted from some cells following stimulation with TGF-β and other cytokines and is thus present in plasma and body fluids. Peroxiredoxin 1 is now recognized as one of the pro-inflammatory factors interacting with toll-like receptor 4, which triggers NF-κB activation and other signaling pathways to evoke inflammatory reactions. Some cancer cells release peroxiredoxin 1 to stimulate toll-like receptor 4-mediated signaling for their progression. Interestingly, peroxiredoxins expressed in protozoa and helminth may modulate host immune responses partly through toll-like receptor 4 for their survival and progression in host. Extracellular peroxiredoxin 1 and peroxiredoxin 2 are known to enhance natural killer cell activity and suppress virus-replication in cells. Peroxiredoxin 1-deficient mice show reduced antioxidant activities but also exhibit restrained tissue inflammatory reactions under some patho-physiological conditions. Novel functions of peroxiredoxins in inflammation, cancer and innate immunity are the focus of this review.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is known to cause tumorigenesis through induction of DNA and lipid damage. It also promotes cancer progression through a largely unknown mechanism. Sulfiredoxin (Srx) is a novel oxidative stress-induced antioxidant protein whose function in tumorigenesis and cancer progression has not been well studied. We report that Srx is highly expressed in human lung cancer. Knockdown of Srx reduces anchorage-independent colony formation, cell migration, and invasion of human lung cancer cells. Srx preferentially interacts with Peroxiredoxin (Prx) IV relative to other Prxs due to its intrinsic higher binding affinity. Knockdown of Prx IV recapitulates the phenotypic changes of depleting Srx. Disruption or enhancement of the Srx-Prx IV axis leads respectively to reduction or acceleration of tumor growth and metastasis formation in vivo. Through identification and validation of the downstream mediators we unraveled the Srx-mediated signaling network that traverses AP-1-activating and other phosphokinase signaling cascades. Our work reveals that the Srx-Prx IV axis is critical for lung cancer maintenance and metastasis, suggesting that targeting the Srx-Prx IV axis may provide unique effective strategies for cancer prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury and pulmonary fibrosis. Peroxiredoxin (Prx) I is a cellular antioxidant enzyme induced under stress conditions. In the present study, the protective effects of Prx I on the development of bleomycin-induced acute pulmonary inflammation and pulmonary fibrosis were investigated using Prx I-deficient mice. Survival of Prx I-deficient mice after bleomycin administration was significantly lower than that of wild-type mice, corresponding with enhanced acute pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis. The level of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, such as TNF-α, macrophage inflammatory protein-2, and monocyte chemotactic protein-1, was significantly elevated in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of Prx I-deficient mice after bleomycin administration. Furthermore, the level of 8-isoprostane, an oxidative stress marker, and the concentration and alveolar macrophage expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor were elevated in the lungs of Prx I-deficient mice after bleomycin administration. The exacerbation of bleomycin-induced pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis in Prx I-deficient mice was inhibited by treatment with N-acetyl-L-cysteine, a radical scavenger, or with (S,R)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4,5-dihydro-5-isoxazole acetic acid methyl ester, a tautomerase inhibitor of macrophage migration inhibitory factor. These findings suggest that mice lacking Prx I are highly susceptible to bleomycin-induced pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis because of increases in pulmonary oxidant levels and macrophage migration inhibitory factor activity in response to bleomycin.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are the key mediators of pathogenesis in cardiovascular diseases. Members of the thioredoxin superfamily take an active part in scavenging reactive oxygen species, thus playing an essential role in maintaining the intracellular redox status. The alteration in the expression levels of thioredoxin family members and related molecules constitute effective biomarkers in various diseases, including cardiovascular complications that involve oxidative stress. Thioredoxin, glutaredoxin, peroxiredoxin, and glutathione peroxidase, along with their isoforms, are involved in interaction with the members of metabolic and signaling pathways, thus making them attractive targets for clinical intervention. Studies with cells and transgenic animals have supported this notion and raised the hope for possible gene therapy as modern genetic medicine. Of all the molecules, thioredoxins, glutaredoxins, and peroxiredoxins are emphasized, because a growing body of evidence reveals their essential and regulatory role in several steps of redox regulation. In this review, we discuss some pertinent observations regarding their distribution, structure, functions, and interactions with the several survival- and death-signaling pathways, especially in the myocardium.

Oral Oncol 2009; 45:1037-43. [PMID: 19692293 DOI: 10.1016/j.oraloncology.2009.07.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2009] [Revised: 07/01/2009] [Accepted: 07/02/2009] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
The anticancer agent cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (cisplatin) is a first-line chemotherapeutic agent for oral cancer. Cell exposure to cisplatin is associated with increased oxidative stress and post-translational changes in components of apoptosis pathways, including p38 Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), c-Jun-NH2-kinase (JNK), and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK). Peroxiredoxin (Prx) I is an oxidative stress-inducible protein expressed in many tissues and important for reducing reactive oxygen species in vivo; however, whether Prx I helps protect cells from cisplatin injury is unknown. In this report, we examined the effects of Prx I on cell sensitivity to cisplatin-induced apoptosis. Mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) derived from Prx I-deficient mice showed increased cisplatin-induced apoptosis compared with wild-type MEFs. Cisplatin treatment also led to increased activation of p38 MAPK and JNK, and reduced ERK phosphorylation in Prx I-deficient MEFs compared with wild-type MEFs. Furthermore, JNK- and ERK-specific inhibitors protected the Prx I-deficient MEFs from cisplatin-induced apoptosis, but Prx I-deficient MEFs remained more sensitive than wild-type MEFs when treated with a p38 MAPK-specific inhibitor. These findings indicate that Prx I modulates the cisplatin-evoked activation of MAPKs that lead to apoptosis, and Prx I may thus represent a useful target as a protective therapy against cisplatin cytotoxicity.

Peroxiredoxin I is a negative regulator of Th2-dominant allergic asthma. Int Immunopharmacol 2009; 9:1281-8. [PMID: 19647805 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2009.07.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2009] [Revised: 06/29/2009] [Accepted: 07/23/2009] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
Peroxiredoxin (Prx) I, a ubiquitous antioxidant enzyme, is known to protect against inflammation; however, its role in the allergic inflammation remains unidentified. We determined whether intristic Prx I protects against allergic asthma traits using Prx-I knockout (-/-) mice. Prx I (-/-) and wild-type (WT) mice were immunized with ovalbumin (OVA) plus aluminum potassium sulfate (Alum: Th2 adjuvant) and subsequently challenged with OVA. Twenty-four hours after the last OVA challenge, leukocyte influx including eosinophils into bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was significantly greater in Prx I (-/-) mice compared to that in WT mice. On the other hand, when these mice were immunized with OVA+complete Freund's adjuvant (Th1 adjuvant), opposite phenomenon was observed. In the presence of OVA/Alum, peribronchial inflammatory leukocyte infiltration, cholinergic airway resistance, and the lung expression of interleukin (IL)-2 were significantly greater and that of interferon-gamma was significantly lesser in Prx I (-/-) than in WT mice. In vitro, OVA/Alum-sensitized Prx I (-/-) T cells proliferated more profoundly than WT T cells when they were cocultured with syngeneic bone marrow-generated dendritic cells. These results indicate that endogenous Prx I protects against allergen-related Th2-type airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness, at least partly, via the suppression of the lung expression of IL-2 and regulation of the Th1/Th2 balance in addition to its antioxidative properties. Furthermore, Prx I can inhibit allergen-specific T-cell proliferation through immunological synapse. Our findings implicate an alternative therapeutic value of Prx I in the treatment of Th2-skewed allergic airway inflammatory diseases such as atopic asthma.

Abstract
Prx (peroxiredoxin) is a multifunctional redox protein with thioredoxin-dependent peroxidase activity. Prx4 is present as a secretory protein in most tissues, whereas in sexually mature testes it is anchored in the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) membrane of spermatogenic cells via an uncleaved N-terminal hydrophobic peptide. We generated a Prx4 knockout mouse to investigate the function of Prx4 in vivo. Prx4(-/y) mice lacking Prx4 expression in all cells were obtained by mating Prx4(flox/+) female mice with Cre-transgenic male mice that ubiquitously expressed Cre recombinase. The resulting Prx4(-/y) male mice were fertile, and most organs were nearly normal in size, except for testicular atrophy. The number of deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labelling-positive spermatogenic cells was higher in Prx4(-/y) mice than in Prx4(+/y) mice and increased remarkably in response to warming the lower abdomen at 43 degrees C for 15 min. Cells reactive to antibodies against 4-hydroxynonenal and 8-hydroxyguanine were high in the Prx4(-/y) mice and concomitant with elevated oxidation of lipid and protein thiols. The cauda epididymis of Prx4(-/y) mice contained round spermatocytes, which were not found in Prx4(+/y) mice, and displayed oligozoospermia. However, mature spermatozoa from the epididymis of Prx4(-/y) mice exhibited normal fertilization In vitro. Taken together, these results indicate that spermatogenic cells lacking Prx4 are more susceptible to cell death via oxidative damage than their wild-type counterparts. Our results suggest that the presence of Prx4, most likely the membrane-bound form, is important for spermatogenesis, but not an absolute requisite.

Abstract
The thioredoxin (TRX) system consists of TRX, TRX reductase, and NAD(P)H, and is able to reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) through interactions with the redox-active center of TRX, which in turn can be reduced by TRX reductase in the presence of NAD(P)H. Among the TRX superfamily is peroxiredoxin (PRX), a family of non-heme peroxidases that catalyzes the reduction of hydroperoxides into water and alcohol. The TRX system is active in the vessel wall and functions either as an important endogenous antioxidant or interacts directly with signaling molecules to influence cell growth, apoptosis, and inflammation. Recent evidence implicates TRX in cardiovascular disease associated with oxidative stress, such as cardiac failure, arrhythmia, ischemia reperfusion injury, and hypertension. Thioredoxin activity is influenced by many mechanisms, including transcription, protein-protein interaction, and post-translational modification. Regulation of TRX in hypertensive models seems to be related to oxidative stress and is tissue- and cell-specific. Depending on the models of hypertension, TRX system could be upregulated or downregulated. The present review focuses on the role of TRX in vascular biology, describing its redox activities and biological properties in the media and endothelium of the vessel wall. In addition, the pathopysiological role of TRX in hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases is addressed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection enhances the production of reactive oxygen species and peroxynitrite, thereby resulting in oxidative tissue damage. In this study, we examined the role of peroxiredoxin I (Prx I), a stress-induced antioxidant enzyme, in protecting gastric mucosa from H. pylori-induced gastric mucosal injury. METHODS Wild type (Prx I(+/+)) and Prx I-deficient type (Prx I(-/-)) mice were maintained for 2 to 12 months with or without infection of H. pylori, Sydney strain-1. Gastric mucosal expression of Prx I was assessed by immunoblot analysis and immunohistochemistry. The degree of gastritis was evaluated by the updated Sydney system and by mucosal levels of inflammatory cytokines (MIP-2, IL-1beta, and TNF-alpha). Oxidative DNA injury and apoptosis were analyzed by mucosal level of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, and the number of apoptotic cells stained with a single-stranded DNA antibody, respectively. RESULTS H. pylori infection upregulated gastric mucosal Prx I expression in the Prx I(+/+) but not the Prx I(-/-) mice. H. pylori infection also induced more severe gastritis and a more prominent increase in MIP level, more marked oxidative DNA injury, and apoptosis in the Prx I(-/-) than the Prx I(+/+) mice. In the absence of H. pylori infection, no changes were demonstrated in gastric mucosa in either the Prx I(+/+) or the Prx I(-/-) mice. CONCLUSION These data suggest that H. pylori infection upregulates gastric mucosal Prx I expression, and further, that Prx I plays an important role in gastric mucosal protection against oxidative injury induced by H. pylori infection.

Abstract
Rat heme-binding protein 23 (HBP23)/peroxiredoxin (Prx I) belongs to the 2-Cys peroxiredoxin type I family and exhibits peroxidase activity coupled with reduced thioredoxin (Trx) as an electron donor. We analyzed the dimer-oligomer interconversion of wild-type and mutant HBP23/Prx I by gel filtration and found that the C52S and C173S mutants existed mostly as decamers, whereas the wild type was a mixture of various forms, favoring the decamer at higher protein concentration and lower ionic salt concentration and in the presence of dithiothreitol. The C83S mutant was predominantly dimeric, in agreement with a previous crystallographic analysis (Hirotsu, S., Abe, Y., Okada, K., Nagahara, N., Hori, H., Nishino, T., and Hakoshima, T. (1999) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 96, 12333-12338). X-ray diffraction analysis of the decameric C52S mutant revealed a toroidal structure (diameter, approximately 130A; inside diameter, approximately 55A; thickness, approximately 45A). In contrast to human Prx I, which was recently reported to exist predominantly as the decamer with Cys(83)-Cys(83) disulfide bonds at all dimer-dimer interfaces, rat HBP23/Prx I has a Cys(83)-Cys(83) disulfide bond at only one dimer-dimer interface (S-S separation of approximately 2.1A), whereas the interactions at the other interfaces (mean S-S separation of 3.6A) appear to involve hydrophobic and van der Waals forces. This finding is consistent with gel filtration analyses showing that the protein readily interconverts between dimer and oligomeric forms. The C83S mutant exhibited similar peroxidase activity to the wild type, which is exclusively dimeric, in the Trx/Trx reductase system. At higher concentrations, where the protein was mostly decameric, less efficient attack of reduced Trx was observed in a [(14)C]iodoacetamide incorporation experiment. We suggest that the dimerdecamer interconversion may have a regulatory role.
