Abstract
Significance: Potassium channels regulate the influx and efflux of K+ ions in various cell types that generate and propagate action potential associated with excitation, contraction, and relaxation of various cell types. Although redox active cysteines are critically important for channel activity, the redox regulation of K+ channels by thioredoxin (Trx) has not been systematically reviewed. Recent Advances: Redox regulation of K+ channel is now increasingly recognized as drug targets in the pathological condition of several cardiovascular disease processes. The role of Trx in regulation of these channels and its implication in pathological conditions have not been adequately reviewed. This review specifically focuses on the redox-regulatory role of Trx on K+ channel structure and function in physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Critical Issues: Ion channels, including K+ channel, have been implicated in the functioning of cardiomyocyte excitation-contraction coupling, vascular hyperpolarization, cellular proliferation, and neuronal stimulation in physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Although oxidation-reduction of ion channels is critically important in their function, the role of Trx, redox regulatory protein in regulation of these channels, and its implication in pathological conditions need to be studied to gain further insight into channel function. Future Directions: Future studies need to map all redox regulatory pathways in channel structure and function using novel mouse models and redox proteomic and signal transduction studies, which modulate various currents and altered excitability of relevant cells implicated in a pathological condition. We are yet at infancy of studies related to redox control of various K+ channels and structured and focused studies with novel animal models. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 00, 00-00.

Abstract
This review is focused on the mechanisms that regulate health, disease and aging redox status, the signal pathways that counteract oxidative and reductive stress, the role of food components and additives with antioxidant properties (curcumin, polyphenols, vitamins, carotenoids, flavonoids, etc.), and the role of the hormones irisin and melatonin in the redox homeostasis of animal and human cells. The correlations between the deviation from optimal redox conditions and inflammation, allergic, aging and autoimmune responses are discussed. Special attention is given to the vascular system, kidney, liver and brain oxidative stress processes. The role of hydrogen peroxide as an intracellular and paracrine signal molecule is also reviewed. The cyanotoxins β-N-methylamino-l-alanine (BMAA), cylindrospermopsin, microcystins and nodularins are introduced as potentially dangerous food and environment pro-oxidants.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a gaseous signaling molecule that participates in various signaling functions in health and diseases. The tetrameric cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) contributes to H2S biogenesis and several investigations provide evidence on the pharmacological modulation of CSE as a potential target for the treatment of a multitude of conditions. D-penicillamine (D-pen) has recently been reported to selectively impede CSE-catalyzed H2S production but the molecular bases for such inhibitory effect have not been investigated. In this study, we report that D-pen follows a mixed-inhibition mechanism to inhibit both cystathionine (CST) cleavage and H2S biogenesis by human CSE. To decipher the molecular mechanisms underlying such a mixed inhibition, we performed docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Interestingly, MD analysis of CST binding reveals a likely active site configuration prior to gem-diamine intermediate formation, particularly H-bond formation between the amino group of the substrate and the O3' of PLP. Similar analyses realized with both CST and D-pen identified three potent interfacial ligand-binding sites for D-pen and offered a rational for D-pen effect. Thus, inhibitor binding not only induces the creation of an entirely new interacting network at the vicinity of the interface between enzyme subunits, but it also exerts long range effects by propagating to the active site. Overall, our study paves the way for the design of new allosteric interfacial inhibitory compounds that will specifically modulate H2S biogenesis by cystathionine γ-lyase.

Abstract
Blood pressure is determined by cardiac output and peripheral vascular resistance. The L-type voltage-gated Ca2+ (Cav1.2) channel in small arteries and arterioles plays an essential role in regulating Ca2+ influx, vascular resistance, and blood pressure. Hypertension and preeclampsia are characterized by high blood pressure. In addition, diabetes has a high prevalence of hypertension. The etiology of these disorders remains elusive, involving the complex interplay of environmental and genetic factors. Common to these disorders are oxidative stress and vascular dysfunction. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) derived from NADPH oxidases (NOXs) and mitochondria are primary sources of vascular oxidative stress, whereas dysfunction of the Cav1.2 channel confers increased vascular resistance in hypertension. This review will discuss the importance of ROS derived from NOXs and mitochondria in regulating vascular Cav1.2 and potential roles of ROS-mediated Cav1.2 dysfunction in aberrant vascular function in hypertension, diabetes, and preeclampsia.

MAPKs Are Highly Abundant but Do Not Contribute to α 1-Adrenergic Contraction of Rat Saphenous Arteries in the Early Postnatal Period. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22116037. [PMID: 34204888 PMCID: PMC8199737 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22116037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2021] [Revised: 05/28/2021] [Accepted: 06/01/2021] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Previously, the abundance of p42/44 and p38 MAPK proteins had been shown to be higher in arteries of 1- to 2-week-old compared to 2- to 3-month-old rats. However, the role of MAPKs in vascular tone regulation in early ontogenesis remains largely unexplored. We tested the hypothesis that the contribution of p42/44 and p38 MAPKs to the contraction of peripheral arteries is higher in the early postnatal period compared to adulthood. Saphenous arteries of 1- to 2-week-old and 2- to 3-month-old rats were studied using wire myography and western blotting. The α1-adrenoceptor agonist methoxamine did not increase the phosphorylation level of p38 MAPK in either 1- to 2-week-old or 2- to 3-month-old rats. Accordingly, inhibition of p38 MAPK did not affect arterial contraction to methoxamine in either age group. Methoxamine increased the phosphorylation level of p42/44 MAPKs in arteries of 2- to 3-month-old and of p44 MAPK in 1- to 2-week-old rats. Inhibition of p42/44 MAPKs reduced methoxamine-induced contractions in arteries of 2- to 3-month-old, but not 1- to 2-week-old rats. Thus, despite a high abundance in arterial tissue, p38 and p42/44 MAPKs do not regulate contraction of the saphenous artery in the early postnatal period. However, p42/44 MAPK activity contributes to arterial contractions in adult rats.

Metabolic syndrome inhibits store-operated Ca 2+ entry and calcium-induced calcium-release mechanism in coronary artery smooth muscle. Biochem Pharmacol 2020; 182:114222. [PMID: 32949582 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2020.114222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2020] [Revised: 09/14/2020] [Accepted: 09/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Metabolic syndrome causes adverse effects on the coronary circulation including altered vascular responsiveness and the progression of coronary artery disease (CAD). However the underlying mechanisms linking obesity with CAD are intricated. Augmented vasoconstriction, mainly due to impaired Ca2+ homeostasis in coronary vascular smooth muscle (VSM), is a critical factor for CAD. Increased calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) mechanism has been associated to pathophysiological conditions presenting persistent vasoconstriction while increased store operated calcium (SOC) entry appears to activate proliferation and migration in coronary vascular smooth muscle (VSM). We analyze here whether metabolic syndrome might alter SOC entry as well as CICR mechanism in coronary arteries, contributing thus to a defective Ca2+ handling and therefore accelerating the progression of CAD. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Measurements of intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) and tension and of Ca2+ channels protein expression were performed in coronary arteries (CA) from lean Zucker rats (LZR) and obese Zucker rats (OZR). KEY RESULTS SOC entry stimulated by emptying sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ store with cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) was decreased and associated to decreased STIM-1 and Orai1 protein expression in OZR CA. Further, CICR mechanism was blunted in these arteries but Ca2+ entry through voltage-dependent L-type channels was preserved contributing to maintain depolarization-induced increases in [Ca2+]i and vasoconstriction in OZR CA. These results were associated to increased expression of voltage-operated L-type Ca2+ channel alpha 1C subunit (CaV1.2) but unaltered ryanodine receptor (RyR) and sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) pump protein content in OZR CA. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS The present manuscript provides evidence of impaired Ca2+ handling mechanisms in coronary arteries in metabolic syndrome where a decrease in both SOC entry and CICR mechanism but preserved vasoconstriction are reported in coronary arteries from obese Zucker rats. Remarkably, OZR CA VSM at this state of metabolic syndrome seemed to have developed a compensation mechanism for impaired CICR by overexpressing CaV1.2 channels.

Tetramethylpyrazine Nitrone Reduces Oxidative Stress to Alleviate Cerebral Vasospasm in Experimental Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Models. Neuromolecular Med 2019; 21:262-274.

Abstract
Cerebral vasospasm is one of the deleterious complications after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), leading to delayed cerebral ischemia and permanent neurological deficits or even death. Free radicals and oxidative stress are considered as crucial causes contributing to cerebral vasospasm and brain damage after SAH. Tetramethylpyrazine nitrone (TBN), a derivative of the clinically used anti-stroke drug tetramethylpyrazine armed with a powerful free radical scavenging nitrone moiety, has been reported to prevent brain damage from ischemic stroke. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of TBN on vasospasm and brain damage after SAH. Two experimental SAH models were used, a rat model by endovascular perforation and a rabbit model by intracisternal injection of autologous blood. The effects of TBN on SAH were evaluated assessing basilar artery spasm, neuronal apoptosis, and neurological deficits. TBN treatment significantly attenuated vasospasm, improved neurological behavior functions and reduced the number of apoptotic neurons in both the SAH rats and rabbits. Mechanistically, TBN suppressed the increase in 3-nitrotyrosine and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine immuno-positive cells in the cortex of SAH rat brain. Western blot analyses indicated that TBN effectively reversed the altered expression of Bcl-2, Bax and cytochrome C, and up-regulated nuclear factor erythroid-derived 2-like 2 (Nrf2) and hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1) protein expressions. In the in vitro studies, TBN inhibited H2O2-induced bEnd.3 cell apoptosis and reduced ROS generation. Additionally, TBN alleviated the contraction of rat basilar artery rings induced by H2O2 ex vivo. In conclusion, TBN ameliorated SAH-induced cerebral vasospasm and neuronal damage. These effects of TBN may be attributed to its anti-oxidative stress effect and up-regulation of Nrf2/HO-1.

Abstract
We sought to determine the mechanism by which angiotensin II (ANGII) stimulates NADPH oxidase-mediated superoxide (O2 .- ) production in bovine pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (BPASMCs). ANGII-induced increase in phospholipase D (PLD) and NADPH oxidase activities were inhibited upon pretreatment of the cells with chemical and genetic inhibitors of PLD2, but not PLD1. Immunoblot study revealed that ANGII treatment of the cells markedly increases protein kinase C-α (PKC-α), -δ, -ε, and -ζ levels in the cell membrane. Pretreatment of the cells with chemical and genetic inhibitors of PKC-ζ, but not PKC-α, -δ, and -ε, attenuated ANGII-induced increase in NADPH oxidase activity without a discernible change in PLD activity. Transfection of the cells with p47phox small interfering RNA inhibited ANGII-induced increase in NADPH oxidase activity without a significant change in PLD activity. Pretreatment of the cells with the chemical and genetic inhibitors of PLD2 and PKC-ζ inhibited ANGII-induced p47phox phosphorylation and subsequently translocation from cytosol to the cell membrane, and also inhibited its association with p22phox (a component of membrane-associated NADPH oxidase). Overall, PLD-PKCζ-p47phox signaling axis plays a crucial role in ANGII-induced increase in NADPH oxidase-mediated O2 .- production in the cells.

Abstract
Para (p)-phenylenediamine and its toxic metabolites induce excess reactive oxygen species formation that results in bladder voiding dysfunction. We determined the effects of synthetic Ni-containing superoxide dismutase mimics and the role of oxidative stress in p-phenylenediamine-induced urinary bladder dysfunction. P-phenylenediamine (60 μg/kg/day) was intraperitoneally administered for 4 weeks to induce bladder injury in female Wistar rats. Synthetic Ni-containing superoxide dismutase mimics, WCT003 (1.5 mg/kg) and WCT006 (1.5 mg/kg), were then intraperitoneally administered for 2 weeks. Transcystometrograms were performed in urethane-anesthetized rats. The in vitro and in vivo reactive oxygen species levels and pathological changes in formalin-fixed bladder sections were evaluated. Western blotting and immunohistochemistry elucidated the pathophysiological mechanisms of oxidative stress-induced apoptosis, autophagy, and pyroptosis. P-phenylenediamine increased voiding frequency, blood and urinary bladder levels of reactive oxygen species, and neutrophil and mast cell infiltration. It also upregulated biomarkers of autophagy (LC3 II), apoptosis (poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase), and pyroptosis (Caspase 1). WCT003 and WCT006 ameliorated reactive oxygen species production, inflammation, apoptosis, autophagy, pyroptosis, and bladder hyperactivity. P-phenylenediamine increased oxidative stress, inflammatory leukocytosis, autophagy, apoptosis, and pyroptosis formation within the urinary bladder. Novel synthetic nickel-containing superoxide dismutase mimics relieved p-phenylenediamine-induced bladder inflammation and voiding dysfunction.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Successful matching of cardiac metabolism to perfusion is accomplished primarily through vasodilation of the coronary resistance arterioles, but the mechanism that achieves this effect changes significantly as aging progresses and involves the contribution of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Recent Advances: A matricellular protein, thrombospondin-1 (Thbs-1), has been shown to be a prolific contributor to the production and modulation of ROS in large conductance vessels and in the peripheral circulation. Recently, the presence of physiologically relevant circulating Thbs-1 levels was proven to also disrupt vasodilation to nitric oxide (NO) in coronary arterioles from aged animals, negatively impacting coronary blood flow reserve. CRITICAL ISSUES This review seeks to reconcile how ROS can be successfully utilized as a substrate to mediate vasoreactivity in the coronary microcirculation as "normal" aging progresses, but will also examine how Thbs-1-induced ROS production leads to dysfunctional perfusion and eventual ischemia and why this is more of a concern in advancing age. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Current therapies that may effectively disrupt Thbs-1 and its receptor CD47 in the vascular wall and areas for future exploration will be discussed. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 27, 785-801.

Pretreatment with apocynin inhibited U46619 induced increase in NADPH oxidase activity. The cell membrane contains predominantly PLD2 along with PLD1 isoforms of PLD. Pretreatment with pharmacological and genetic inhibitors of PLD2, but not PLD1, attenuated U46619 stimulation of NADPH oxidase activity. U46619 stimulation of PLD and NADPH oxidase activities were insensitive to BFA and Clostridium botulinum C3 toxin; however, pretreatment with secinH3 inhibited U46619 induced increase in PLD and NADPH oxidase activities suggesting a major role of cytohesin in U46619-induced increase in PLD and NADPH oxidase activities. Arf-1, Arf-6, cytohesin-1 and cytohesin-2 were observed in the cytosolic fraction, but only Arf-6 and cytohesin-1 were translocated to the cell membrane upon treatment with U46619. Coimmunoprecipitation study showed association of Arf-6 with cytohesin-1 in the cell membrane fraction. In vitro binding of GTPγS with Arf-6 required the presence of cytohesin-1 and that occurs in BFA insensitive manner. Overall, BFA insensitive Arf6-cytohesin1 signaling axis plays a pivotal role in U46619-mediated activation of PLD leading to stimulation of NADPH oxidase activity in HPASMCs.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) like hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) are involved in the in endothelium-derived hyperpolarization (EDH)-type relaxant responses of coronary and mesenteric arterioles. The role of ROS in kidney vascular function has mainly been investigated in the context of harmful ROS generation associated to kidney disease. The present study was sought to investigate whether H2O2 is involved in the endothelium-dependent relaxations of intrarenal arteries as well the possible endothelial sources of ROS generation involved in these responses. Under conditions of cyclooxygenase (COX) and nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibition, acetylcholine (ACh) induced relaxations and stimulated H2O2 release that were reduced by catalase and by the glutathione peroxidase (GPx) mimetic ebselen in rat renal interlobar arteries, suggesting the involvement of H2O2 in the endothelium-dependent responses. ACh relaxations were also blunted by the CYP2C inhibitor sulfaphenazole and by the NADPH oxidase inhibitor apocynin. Acetylcholine stimulated both superoxide (O2•-) and H2O2 production that were reduced by sulfaphenazole and apocynin. Expression of the antioxidant enzyme CuZnSOD and of the H2O2 reducing enzymes catalase and GPx-1 was found in both intrarenal arteries and renal cortex. On the other hand, exogenous H2O2 relaxed renal arteries by decreasing vascular smooth muscle (VSM) intracellular calcium concentration [Ca2+]i and markedly enhanced endothelial KCa currents in freshly isolated renal endothelial cells. CYP2C11 and CYP2C23 epoxygenases were highly expressed in interlobar renal arteries and renal cortex, respectively, and were co-localized with eNOS in renal endothelial cells. These results demonstrate that H2O2 is involved in the EDH-type relaxant responses of renal arteries and that CYP 2C epoxygenases are physiologically relevant endothelial sources of vasodilator H2O2 in the kidney.

Abstract
Background During myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), a large amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is produced. In particular, overproduction of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is considered to be a main cause of I/R‐mediated tissue damage. We generated novel H2O2‐responsive antioxidant polymer nanoparticles (PVAX and HPOX) that are able to target the site of ROS overproduction and attenuate the oxidative stress‐associated diseases. In this study, nanoparticles were examined for their therapeutic effect on myocardial I/R injury. Methods and Results The therapeutic effect of nanoparticles during cardiac I/R was evaluated in mice. A single dose of PVAX (3 mg/kg) showed a significant improvement in both cardiac output and fraction shortening compared with poly(lactic‐coglycolic acid) (PLGA) particle, a non‐H2O2‐activatable nanoparticle. PVAX also significantly reduced the myocardial infarction/area compared with PLGA (48.7±4.2 vs 14.5±2.1). In addition, PVAX effectively reduced caspase‐3 activation and TUNEL‐positive cells compared with PLGA. Furthermore, PVAX significantly decreased TNF‐α and MCP‐1 mRNA levels. To explore the antioxidant effect of PVAX by scavenging ROS, dihydroethidium staining was used as an indicator of ROS generation. PVAX effectively suppressed the generation of ROS caused by I/R, whereas a number of dihydroethidium‐positive cells were observed in a group with PLGA I/R. In addition, PVAX significantly reduced the level of NADPH oxidase (NOX) 2 and 4 expression, which favors the reduction in ROS generation after I/R. Conclusions Taken together, these results suggest that H2O2‐responsive antioxidant PVAX has tremendous potential as a therapeutic agent for myocardial I/R injury.

Abstract
Myocardial perfusion and coronary vascular resistance are regulated by signaling metabolites released from the local myocardium that act either directly on the VSMC or indirectly via stimulation of the endothelium. A prominent mechanism of vasodilation is EDH of the arteriolar smooth muscle, with EETs and H(2)O(2) playing important roles in EDH in the coronary microcirculation. In some cases, EETs and H(2)O(2) are released as transferable hyperpolarizing factors (EDHFs) that act directly on the VSMCs. By contrast, EETs and H(2)O(2) can also promote endothelial KCa activity secondary to the amplification of extracellular Ca(2+) influx and Ca(2+) mobilization from intracellular stores, respectively. The resulting endothelial hyperpolarization may subsequently conduct to the media via myoendothelial gap junctions or potentially lead to the release of a chemically distinct factor(s). Furthermore, in human isolated coronary arterioles dilator signaling involving EETs and H(2)O(2) may be integrated, being either complimentary or inhibitory depending on the stimulus. With an emphasis on the human coronary microcirculation, this review addresses the diverse and integrated mechanisms by which EETs and H(2)O(2) regulate vessel tone and also examines the hypothesis that myoendothelial microdomain signaling facilitates EDH activity in the human heart.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Oxidative stress plays a key role in the vascular and metabolic abnormalities associated with obesity. Herein, we assessed whether obesity can increase coronary vasoconstriction induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) and the signalling pathways involving COX-2 and superoxide (O2.- ) generation. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Contractile responses to H2 O2 and O2.- generation were measured in coronary arteries from genetically obese Zucker rats (OZR) and compared to lean Zucker rats (LZR). KEY RESULTS Both basal and H2 O2 -stimulated O2.- production were enhanced in coronary arteries from OZR, but H2 O2 -induced vasoconstriction was unchanged. The selective COX-2 inhibitor NS398 significantly reduced H2 O2 -induced contractions in endothelium-denuded arteries from LZR and OZR, but only in endothelium-intact arteries from LZR. PGI2 (IP) receptor antagonism modestly reduced the vasoconstrictor action of H2 O2 while antagonism of the PGE2 receptor 4 (EP4 ) enhanced H2 O2 contractions in arteries from OZR but not LZR. Basal release of COX-2-derived PGE2 was higher in coronary arteries from OZR where the selective agonist of EP4 receptors TCS 2519 evoked potent relaxations. COX-2 was up-regulated after acute exposure to H2 O2 in coronary endothelium and vascular smooth muscle (VSM) and inhibition of COX-2 markedly reduced H2 O2 -elicited O2.- generation in coronary arteries and myocardium. Expression of Nox subunits in VSM and NADPH-stimulated O2.- generation was enhanced and contributed to H2 O2 vasoconstriction in arteries from obese rats. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS COX-2 contributes to cardiac oxidative stress and to the endothelium-independent O2.- -mediated coronary vasoconstriction induced by H2 O2 in obesity, which is offset by the release of COX-2-derived endothelial PGE2 acting on EP4 vasodilator receptors.

Abstract
AIM : The aim of this study was to analyse the signalling pathways involved in H2O2 vascular responses in hypertension. METHODS Vascular function, thromboxane A2 (TXA2) production, oxidative stress and protein expression were determined in mesenteric resistance arteries (MRAs) from hypertensive (spontaneously hypertensive rats, SHR) and normotensive Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats. RESULTS H2O2 and the TP agonist U46619 induced greater contractile responses in MRA from SHR than WKY. Moreover, H2O2 increased TXA2 production more in SHR than in WKY. The c-Src inhibitor PP1 reduced H2O2 and U46619-induced contraction and TXA2 release in both strains. The ERK1/2 inhibitor PD98059 reduced H2O2 but not U46619-induced contraction only in SHR arteries. The Rho kinase inhibitor Y26372 reduced H2O2 and U46619-induced contractions only in SHR arteries. Basal c-Src, ERK1/2 and Rho kinase expression were greater in MRA from SHR than WKY. In SHR, the combination of PD98059 with the TP antagonist SQ29548 but not with Y27632 inhibited the H2O2 contraction more than each inhibitor alone. H2O2 and U46619 increased NAD(P)H oxidase activity and O2 production and decreased mitochondrial membrane potential in vessels from SHR. The effects induced by H2O2 were abolished by inhibitors of TXA2 synthase, ERK1/2 and c-Src. The mitochondrial antioxidant mitoTEMPO reduced H2O2-induced contraction and NAD(P)H oxidase activation. CONCLUSION In arteries from WKY, c-Src mediates H2O2 contractile responses by modulating TXA2 release and TXA2 effect. In SHR, H2O2 induces c-Src dependent TXA2 release that provokes vascular contractile responses through Rho kinase, c-Src and O2 from NAD(P)H Oxidase and mitochondria. Moreover, ERK1/2 activation contributes to H2O2 contraction in SHR through effects on mitochondria/NAD(P)H Oxidase.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Abnormal Ca(2+) metabolism has been involved in the pathogenesis of vascular dysfunction associated with oxidative stress. Here, we have investigated the actions of H2 O2 on store-operated Ca(2+) (SOC) entry in coronary arteries and assessed whether it is impaired in arteries from a rat model of metabolic syndrome. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Simultaneous measurements of intracellular Ca(2+) concentration and contractile responses were made in coronary arteries from Wistar and obese Zucker rats, mounted in microvascular myographs, and the effects of H2 O2 were assessed. KEY RESULTS H2 O2 raised intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations, accompanied by simultaneous vasoconstriction that was markedly reduced in a Ca(2+) -free medium. Upon Ca(2+) re-addition, a nifedipine-resistant sustained Ca(2+) entry, not coupled to contraction, was obtained in endothelium-denuded coronary arteries. The effect of H2 O2 on this voltage-independent Ca(2+) influx was concentration-dependent, and high micromolar H2 O2 concentrations were inhibitory and reduced SOC entry evoked by inhibition of the sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase (SERCA). H2 O2 -induced increases in Fura signals were mimicked by Ba(2+) and reduced by heparin, Gd(3+) ions and by Pyr6, a selective inhibitor of the Orai1-mediated Ca(2+) entry,. In coronary arteries from obese Zucker rats, intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization and SOC entry activated by acute exposure to H2 O2 were augmented and associated with local oxidative stress. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS H2 O2 exerted dual concentration-dependent stimulatory/inhibitory effects on store-operated, IP3 receptor-mediated and Orai1-mediated Ca(2+) entry, not coupled to vasoconstriction in coronary vascular smooth muscle. SOC entry activated by H2 O2 was enhanced and associated with vascular oxidative stress in coronary arteries in metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Emerging evidence suggests a selective up-regulation of arginase I in diabetes causing coronary artery disease; however, the mechanisms behind this up-regulation are still unknown. Activated p38 MAPK has been reported to increase arginase II in various cardiovascular diseases. We therefore tested the role of p38 MAPK in the regulation of arginase I and II expression and its effect on endothelial dysfunction in diabetes mellitus. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Endothelial function was determined in septal coronary (SCA), left anterior descending coronary (LAD) and mesenteric (MA) arteries from healthy and streptozotocin-induced diabetic Wistar rats by wire myographs. Arginase activity and protein levels of arginase I, II, phospho-p38 MAPK and phospho-endothelial NOS (eNOS) (Ser(1177) ) were determined in these arteries from diabetic and healthy rats treated with a p38 MAPK inhibitor in vivo. KEY RESULTS Diabetic SCA and MA displayed impaired endothelium-dependent relaxation, which was prevented by arginase and p38 MAPK inhibition while LAD relaxation was not affected. Arginase I, phospho-p38 MAPK and eNOS protein expression was increased in diabetic coronary arteries. In diabetic MA, however, increased expression of arginase II and phospho-p38 MAPK, increased arginase activity and decreased expression of eNOS were observed. All these effects were reversed by p38 MAPK inhibition. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Diabetes-induced activation of p38 MAPK causes endothelial dysfunction via selective up-regulation of arginase I expression in coronary arteries and arginase II expression in MA. Therefore, regional differences appear to exist in the arginase isoforms contributing to endothelial dysfunction in type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Background and Aims Endothelial small- and intermediate-conductance KCa channels, SK3 and IK1, are key mediators in the endothelium-derived hyperpolarization and relaxation of vascular smooth muscle and also in the modulation of endothelial Ca2+ signaling and nitric oxide (NO) release. Obesity is associated with endothelial dysfunction and impaired relaxation, although how obesity influences endothelial SK3/IK1 function is unclear. Therefore we assessed whether the role of these channels in the coronary circulation is altered in obese animals. Methods and Results In coronary arteries mounted in microvascular myographs, selective blockade of SK3/IK1 channels unmasked an increased contribution of these channels to the ACh- and to the exogenous NO- induced relaxations in arteries of Obese Zucker Rats (OZR) compared to Lean Zucker Rats (LZR). Relaxant responses induced by the SK3/IK1 channel activator NS309 were enhanced in OZR and NO- endothelium-dependent in LZR, whereas an additional endothelium-independent relaxant component was found in OZR. Fura2-AM fluorescence revealed a larger ACh-induced intracellular Ca2+ mobilization in the endothelium of coronary arteries from OZR, which was inhibited by blockade of SK3/IK1 channels in both LZR and OZR. Western blot analysis showed an increased expression of SK3/IK1 channels in coronary arteries of OZR and immunohistochemistry suggested that it takes place predominantly in the endothelial layer. Conclusions Obesity may induce activation of adaptive vascular mechanisms to preserve the dilator function in coronary arteries. Increased function and expression of SK3/IK1 channels by influencing endothelial Ca2+ dynamics might contribute to the unaltered endothelium-dependent coronary relaxation in the early stages of obesity.

Abstract
Ion channels perform a variety of cellular functions in lung epithelia. Oxidant- and antioxidant-mediated mechanisms (that is, redox regulation) of ion channels are areas of intense research. Significant progress has been made in our understanding of redox regulation of ion channels since the last Experimental Biology report in 2003. Advancements include: 1) identification of nonphagocytic NADPH oxidases as sources of regulated reactive species (RS) production in epithelia, 2) an understanding that excessive treatment with antioxidants can result in greater oxidative stress, and 3) characterization of novel RS signaling pathways that converge upon ion channel regulation. These advancements, as discussed at the 2013 Experimental Biology Meeting in Boston, MA, impact our understanding of oxidative stress in the lung, and, in particular, illustrate that the redox state has profound effects on ion channel and cellular function.
