Abstract
Mitochondria are a main source of cellular energy. Oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) is the major process of aerobic respiration. Enzyme complexes of the electron transport chain (ETC) pump protons to generate a protonmotive force (Δp) that drives OXPHOS. Complex I is an electron entry point into the ETC. Complex I oxidizes nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and transfers electrons to ubiquinone in a reaction coupled with proton pumping. Complex I also produces reactive oxygen species (ROS) under various conditions. The enzymatic activities of complex I can be regulated by metabolic conditions and serves as a regulatory node of the ETC. Complex I ROS plays diverse roles in cell metabolism ranging from physiologic to pathologic conditions. Progress in our understanding indicates that ROS release from complex I serves important signaling functions. Increasing evidence suggests that complex I ROS is important in signaling a mismatch in energy production and demand. In this article, we review the role of ROS from complex I in sensing acute hypoxia.

Abstract
The carotid body (CB) contributes significantly to oxygen sensing. It is unclear, however, whether glutamatergic signaling is involved in the CB response to hypoxia. Previously, we reported that ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) and multiple glutamate transporters are present in the rat CB. Except for iGluRs, glutamate receptors also include metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs), which are divided into the following groups: Group I (mGluR1/5); group II (mGluR2/3); group III (mGluR4/6/7/8). We have studied the expression of group I mGluRs in the rat CB and its physiological function response to acute hypoxia. To further elucidate the states of mGluRs in the CB, this study’s aim was to investigate the expression of group II and III mGluRs and the response of rat CB to acute hypoxia. We used reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to observed mRNA expression of GRM2/3/4/6/7/8 subunits by using immunostaining to show the distribution of mGluR2 and mGluR8. The results revealed that the GRM2/3/4/6/7/8 mRNAs were expressed in both rat and human CB. Immunostaining showed that mGluR2 was localized in the type I cells and mGluR8 was localized in type I and type II cells in the rat CB. Moreover, the response of CB to acute hypoxia in rats was recorded by in vitro carotid sinus nerve (CSN) discharge. Perfusion of group II mGluRs agonist or group III mGluRs agonist (LY379268 or L-SOP) was applied to examine the effect of group II and III mGluRs on rat CB response to acute hypoxia. We found that LY379268 and L-SOP inhibited hypoxia-induced enhancement of CSN activity. Based on the above findings, group II and III mGluRs appear to play an inhibitory role in the carotid chemoreceptor response to acute hypoxia.

Abstract
Background: The carotid body (CB) plays a critical role in oxygen sensing; however, the role of glutamatergic signaling in the CB response to hypoxia remains uncertain. We previously found that functional multiple glutamate transporters and inotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) are expressed in the CB. The aim of this present research is to investigate the expression of group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) (mGluR1 and 5) in the CB and its physiological function in rat CB response to acute hypoxia. Methods: RT-PCR and immunostaining were conducted to examine the mRNA and protein expression of group I mGluRs in the human and rat CB. Immunofluorescence staining was performed to examine the cellular localization of mGluR1 in the rat CB. In vitro carotid sinus nerve (CSN) discharge recording was performed to detect the physiological function of mGluR1 in CB response to acute hypoxia. Results: We found that (1) mRNAs of mGluR1 and 5 were both expressed in the human and rat CB. (2) mGluR1 protein rather than mGluR5 protein was present in rat CB. (3) mGluR1 was distributed in type I cells of rat CB. (4) Activation of mGluR1 inhibited the hypoxia-induced enhancement of CSN activity (CSNA), as well as prolonged the latency time of CB response to hypoxia. (5) The inhibitory effect of mGluR1 activation on rat CB response to hypoxia could be blocked by GABAB receptor antagonist. Conclusion: Our findings reveal that mGluR1 in CB plays a presynaptic feedback inhibition on rat CB response to hypoxia.

Abstract
Despite a general role for the HIF hydroxylase system in cellular oxygen sensing and tumour hypoxia, cancer-associated mutations of genes in this pathway, including PHD2, PHD1, EPAS1 (encoding HIF-2α) are highly tissue-restricted, being observed in pseudohypoxic pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL) but rarely, if ever, in other tumours. In an effort to understand that paradox and gain insights into the pathogenesis of pseudohypoxic PPGL, we constructed mice in which the principal HIF prolyl hydroxylase, Phd2, is inactivated in the adrenal medulla using TH-restricted Cre recombinase. Investigation of these animals revealed a gene expression pattern closely mimicking that of pseudohypoxic PPGL. Spatially resolved analyses demonstrated a binary distribution of two contrasting patterns of gene expression among adrenal medullary cells. Phd2 inactivation resulted in a marked shift in this distribution towards a Pnmt-/Hif-2α+/Rgs5+ population. This was associated with morphological abnormalities of adrenal development, including ectopic TH+ cells within the adrenal cortex and external to the adrenal gland. These changes were ablated by combined inactivation of Phd2 with Hif-2α, but not Hif-1α. However, they could not be reproduced by inactivation of Phd2 in adult life, suggesting that they arise from dysregulation of this pathway during adrenal development. Together with the clinical observation that pseudohypoxic PPGL manifests remarkably high heritability, our findings suggest that this type of tumour likely arises from dysregulation of a tissue-restricted action of the PHD2/HIF-2α pathway affecting adrenal development in early life and provides a model for the study of the relevant processes.

Abstract
Arterial pCO2 elevations increase minute ventilation via activation of chemosensors within the carotid body (CB) and brainstem. Although the roles of CB chemoafferents in the hypercapnic (HC) ventilatory response have been investigated, there are no studies reporting the role of these chemoafferents in the ventilatory responses to a HC challenge or the responses that occur upon return to room air, in freely moving mice. This study found that an HC challenge (5% CO2, 21% O2, 74% N2 for 15 min) elicited an array of responses, including increases in frequency of breathing (accompanied by decreases in inspiratory and expiratory times), and increases in tidal volume, minute ventilation, peak inspiratory and expiratory flows, and inspiratory and expiratory drives in sham-operated (SHAM) adult male C57BL6 mice, and that return to room air elicited a brief excitatory phase followed by gradual recovery of all parameters toward baseline values over a 15-min period. The array of ventilatory responses to the HC challenge in mice with bilateral carotid sinus nerve transection (CSNX) performed 7 days previously occurred more slowly but reached similar maxima as SHAM mice. A major finding was responses upon return to room air were dramatically lower in CSNX mice than SHAM mice, and the parameters returned to baseline values within 1-2 min in CSNX mice, whereas it took much longer in SHAM mice. These findings are the first evidence that CB chemoafferents play a key role in initiating the ventilatory responses to HC challenge in C57BL6 mice and are essential for the expression of post-HC ventilatory responses.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This study presents the first evidence that carotid body chemoafferents play a key role in initiating the ventilatory responses, such as increases in frequency of breathing, tidal volume, and minute ventilation that occur in response to a hypercapnic gas challenge in freely moving C57BL6 mice. Our study also demonstrates for the first time that these chemoafferents are essential for the expression of the ventilatory responses that occur upon return to room air in these mice.

Abstract
Superior cervical ganglia (SCG) postganglionic neurons receive preganglionic drive via the cervical sympathetic chains (CSC). The SCG projects to structures like the carotid bodies (e.g., vasculature, chemosensitive glomus cells), upper airway (e.g., tongue, nasopharynx), and to the parenchyma and cerebral arteries throughout the brain. We previously reported that a hypoxic gas challenge elicited an array of ventilatory responses in sham-operated (SHAM) freely moving adult male C57BL6 mice and that responses were altered in mice with bilateral transection of the cervical sympathetic chain (CSCX). Since the CSC provides preganglionic innervation to the SCG, we presumed that mice with superior cervical ganglionectomy (SCGX) would respond similarly to hypoxic gas challenge as CSCX mice. However, while SCGX mice had altered responses during hypoxic gas challenge that occurred in CSCX mice (e.g., more rapid occurrence of changes in frequency of breathing and minute ventilation), SCGX mice displayed numerous responses to hypoxic gas challenge that CSCX mice did not, including reduced total increases in frequency of breathing, minute ventilation, inspiratory and expiratory drives, peak inspiratory and expiratory flows, and appearance of noneupneic breaths. In conclusion, hypoxic gas challenge may directly activate subpopulations of SCG cells, including subpopulations of postganglionic neurons and small intensely fluorescent (SIF) cells, independently of CSC drive, and that SCG drive to these structures dampens the initial occurrence of the hypoxic ventilatory response, while promoting the overall magnitude of the response. The multiple effects of SCGX may be due to loss of innervation to peripheral and central structures with differential roles in breathing control.NEW & NOTEWORTHY We present data showing that the ventilatory responses elicited by a hypoxic gas challenge in male C57BL6 mice with bilateral superior cervical ganglionectomy are not equivalent to those reported for mice with bilateral transection of the cervical sympathetic chain. These data suggest that hypoxic gas challenge may directly activate subpopulations of superior cervical ganglia (SCG) cells, including small intensely fluorescent (SIF) cells and/or principal SCG neurons, independently of preganglionic cervical sympathetic chain drive.

Abstract
The carotid body (CB) is the main peripheral chemoreceptor for arterial respiratory gases O2 and CO2 and pH, eliciting reflex ventilatory, cardiovascular, and humoral responses to maintain homeostasis. This review examines the fundamental biology underlying CB chemoreceptor function, its contribution to integrated physiological responses, and its role in maintaining health and potentiating disease. Emphasis is placed on 1) transduction mechanisms in chemoreceptor (type I) cells, highlighting the role played by the hypoxic inhibition of O2-dependent K+ channels and mitochondrial oxidative metabolism, and their modification by intracellular molecules and other ion channels; 2) synaptic mechanisms linking type I cells and petrosal nerve terminals, focusing on the role played by the main proposed transmitters and modulatory gases, and the participation of glial cells in regulation of the chemosensory process; 3) integrated reflex responses to CB activation, emphasizing that the responses differ dramatically depending on the nature of the physiological, pathological, or environmental challenges, and the interactions of the chemoreceptor reflex with other reflexes in optimizing oxygen delivery to the tissues; and 4) the contribution of enhanced CB chemosensory discharge to autonomic and cardiorespiratory pathophysiology in obstructive sleep apnea, congestive heart failure, resistant hypertension, and metabolic diseases and how modulation of enhanced CB reactivity in disease conditions may attenuate pathophysiology.

Abstract
The cervical sympathetic chain (CSC) innervates post-ganglionic sympathetic neurons within the ipsilateral superior cervical ganglion (SCG) of all mammalian species studied to date. The post-ganglionic neurons within the SCG project to a wide variety of structures, including the brain (parenchyma and cerebral arteries), upper airway (e.g., nasopharynx and tongue) and submandibular glands. The SCG also sends post-ganglionic fibers to the carotid body (e.g., chemosensitive glomus cells and microcirculation), however, the function of these connections are not established in the mouse. In addition, nothing is known about the functional importance of the CSC-SCG complex (including input to the carotid body) in the mouse. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of bilateral transection of the CSC on the ventilatory responses [e.g., increases in frequency of breathing (Freq), tidal volume (TV) and minute ventilation (MV)] that occur during and following exposure to a hypoxic gas challenge (10% O2 and 90% N2) in freely-moving sham-operated (SHAM) adult male C57BL6 mice, and in mice in which both CSC were transected (CSCX). Resting ventilatory parameters (19 directly recorded or calculated parameters) were similar in the SHAM and CSCX mice. There were numerous important differences in the responses of CSCX and SHAM mice to the hypoxic challenge. For example, the increases in Freq (and associated decreases in inspiratory and expiratory times, end expiratory pause, and relaxation time), and the increases in MV, expiratory drive, and expiratory flow at 50% exhaled TV (EF50) occurred more quickly in the CSCX mice than in the SHAM mice, although the overall responses were similar in both groups. Moreover, the initial and total increases in peak inspiratory flow were higher in the CSCX mice. Additionally, the overall increases in TV during the latter half of the hypoxic challenge were greater in the CSCX mice. The ventilatory responses that occurred upon return to room-air were essentially similar in the SHAM and CSCX mice. Overall, this novel data suggest that the CSC may normally provide inhibitory input to peripheral (e.g., carotid bodies) and central (e.g., brainstem) structures that are involved in the ventilatory responses to hypoxic gas challenge in C57BL6 mice.

Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests that gaseous molecules, carbon monoxide (CO), and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) generated by heme oxygenase (HO)-2 and cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE), respectively, function as transmitters in the nervous system. Present study examined the roles of CO and H2S in hypoxia-induced catecholamine (CA) release from adrenal medullary chromaffin cells (AMCs). Studies were performed on AMCs from adult (≥6 wk of age) wild-type (WT), HO-2 null, CSE null, and HO-2/CSE double null mice of either gender. CA secretion was determined by carbon fiber amperometry and [Ca2+]i by microflurometry using Fura-2. HO-2- and CSE immunoreactivities were seen in WT AMC, which were absent in HO-2 and CSE null mice. Hypoxia (medium Po2 30-38 mmHg) evoked CA release and elevated [Ca2+]i. The magnitude of hypoxic response was greater in HO-2 null mice and in HO inhibitor-treated WT AMC compared with controls. H2S levels were elevated in HO-2 null AMC. Either pharmacological inhibition or genetic deletion of CSE prevented the augmented hypoxic responses of HO-2 null AMC and H2S donor rescued AMC responses to hypoxia in HO-2/CSE double null mice. CORM3, a CO donor, prevented the augmented hypoxic responses in WT and HO-2 null AMC. CO donor reduced H2S levels in WT AMC. The effects of CO donor were blocked by either ODQ or 8pCT, inhibitors of soluble guanylyl cyclase (SGC) or protein kinase G, respectively. These results suggest that HO-2-derived CO inhibits hypoxia-evoked CA secretion from adult murine AMC involving soluble guanylyl cyclase (SGC)-protein kinase G (PKG)-dependent regulation of CSE-derived H2S.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Catecholamine secretion from adrenal chromaffin cells is an important physiological mechanism for maintaining homeostasis during hypoxia. Here, we delineate carbon monoxide (CO)-sensitive hydrogen sulfide (H2S) signaling as an important mediator of hypoxia-induced catecholamine secretion from murine adrenal chromaffin cells. Heme oxygenase-2 derived CO is a physiological inhibitor of catcholamince secretion by hypoxia and the effects of CO involve inhibition of cystathionine γ-lyase-derived H2S production through soluble guanylyl cyclase-protein kinase G signaling cascade.

Abstract
NEW FINDINGS What is the central question of this study? Are carotid bodies (CBs) modulated by the damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and humoral factors of aseptic tissue injury? What are the main findings and their importance? DAMPs (HMGB1, S100 A8/A9) and blood plasma from rats subjected to tibia surgery, a model of aseptic injury, stimulate the release of neurotransmitters (ATP, dopamine) and TNF-α from ex vivo rat CBs. All-thiol HMGB1 mediates upregulation of immune-related biological pathways. These data suggest regulation of CB function by endogenous mediators of innate immunity. ABSTRACT The glomus cells of carotid bodies (CBs) are the primary sensors of arterial partial O2 and CO2 tensions and moreover serve as multimodal receptors responding also to other stimuli, such as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) produced by acute infection. Modulation of CB function by excessive amounts of these immunomodulators is suggested to be associated with a detrimental hyperinflammatory state. We have hypothesized that yet another class of immunomodulators, endogenous danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), released upon aseptic tissue injury and recognized by the same pathogen recognition receptors as PAMPs, might modulate the CB activity in a fashion similar to PAMPs. We have tested this hypothesis by exposing rat CBs to various DAMPs, such as HMGB1 (all-thiol and disulfide forms) and S100 A8/A9 in a series of ex vivo experiments that demonstrated the release of dopamine and ATP, neurotransmitters known to mediate CB homeostatic responses. We observed a similar response after incubating CBs with conditioned blood plasma obtained from the rats subjected to tibia surgery, a model of aseptic injury. In addition, we have investigated global gene expression in the rat CB using an RNA sequencing approach. Differential gene expression analysis showed all-thiol HMGB1-driven upregulation of a number of prominent pro-inflammatory markers including Il1α and Il1β. Interestingly, conditioned plasma had a more profound effect on the CB transcriptome resulting in inhibition rather than activation of the immune-related pathways. These data are the first to suggest potential modulation of CB function by endogenous mediators of innate immunity.

O 2-Dependent Protein Internalization Underlies Astrocytic Sensing of Acute Hypoxia by Restricting Multimodal TRPA1 Channel Responses. Curr Biol 2020; 30:3378-3396.e7. [PMID: 32679097 DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2020.06.047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2019] [Revised: 04/14/2020] [Accepted: 06/12/2020] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
Hypoxia sensors are essential for regulating local oxygen (O2) homeostasis within the body. This is especially pertinent within the CNS, which is particularly vulnerable to O2 deprivation due to high energetic demand. Here, we reveal hypoxia-monitoring function exerted by astrocytes through an O2-regulated protein trafficking mechanism within the CNS. Strikingly, cultured mouse astrocytes isolated from the parafacial respiratory group (pFRG) and retrotrapezoid nucleus (RTN) region are capable of rapidly responding to moderate hypoxia via the sensor cation channel transient receptor potential (TRP) A1 but, unlike multimodal sensory neurons, are inert to hyperoxia and other TRPA1 activators (carbon dioxide, electrophiles, and oxidants) in normoxia. Mechanistically, O2 suppresses TRPA1 channel activity by protein internalization via O2-dependent proline hydroxylation and subsequent ubiquitination by an E3 ubiquitin ligase, NEDD4-1 (neural precursor cell-expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 4). Hypoxia inhibits this process and instantly accumulates TRPA1 proteins at the plasma membrane, inducing TRPA1-mediated Ca2+ influx that triggers ATP release from pFRG/RTN astrocytes, potentiating respiratory center activity. Furthermore, astrocyte-specific Trpa1 disruption in a mouse brainstem-spinal cord preparation impedes the amplitude augmentation of the central autonomic respiratory output during hypoxia. Thus, reversible coupling of the TRPA1 channels with O2-dependent protein translocation allows astrocytes to act as acute hypoxia sensors in the medullary respiratory center.

Abstract
This study explored the expression of BACE1 (β-amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1) in the rat carotid body and the effect of CIH (cyclic intermittent hypoxia) on the expression of BACE1. We found that BACE1 was expressed in the rat carotid body and located in the nerve endings and type II cells but not in type I cells. CIH reduced BACE1 level in the carotid body, and reoxygenation or ROS scavenger alleviated this reduction. Furthermore, we found that CIH augmented the mRNA level of PGC-1α but attenuated the mRNA level of BACE1 in the carotid body. Taken together, our results suggest that CIH promotes the production of ROS that upregulates the level of PGC-1α, which may in turn inhibits the transcription of BACE1, and that a reduction in the BACE1 level may be related to CIH-induced reversible and ROS-dependent carotid body plasticity. Our study provides a new candidate molecule for further study of the mechanism of carotid body plasticity.

Abstract
Air-breathing animals do not experience hyperoxia (inspired O2 > 21%) in nature, but preterm and full-term infants often experience hyperoxia/hyperoxemia in clinical settings. This article focuses on the effects of normobaric hyperoxia during the perinatal period on breathing in humans and other mammals, with an emphasis on the neural control of breathing during hyperoxia, after return to normoxia, and in response to subsequent hypoxic and hypercapnic challenges. Acute hyperoxia typically evokes an immediate ventilatory depression that is often, but not always, followed by hyperpnea. The hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR) is enhanced by brief periods of hyperoxia in adult mammals, but the limited data available suggest that this may not be the case for newborns. Chronic exposure to mild-to-moderate levels of hyperoxia (e.g., 30-60% O2 for several days to a few weeks) elicits several changes in breathing in nonhuman animals, some of which are unique to perinatal exposures (i.e., developmental plasticity). Examples of this developmental plasticity include hypoventilation after return to normoxia and long-lasting attenuation of the HVR. Although both peripheral and CNS mechanisms are implicated in hyperoxia-induced plasticity, it is particularly clear that perinatal hyperoxia affects carotid body development. Some of these effects may be transient (e.g., decreased O2 sensitivity of carotid body glomus cells) while others may be permanent (e.g., carotid body hypoplasia, loss of chemoafferent neurons). Whether the hyperoxic exposures routinely experienced by human infants in clinical settings are sufficient to alter respiratory control development remains an open question and requires further research. © 2020 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
A hypoxic environment can be defined as a region of the body or the whole body that is deprived of oxygen. Hypoxia is a feature of many diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, tissue trauma, stroke, and solid cancers. A loss of oxygen supply usually results in cell death; however, when cells gradually become hypoxic, they may survive and continue to thrive as described for conditions that promote metastatic growth. The role of hypoxia in these pathogenic pathways is therefore of great interest, and understanding the effect of hypoxia in regulating these mechanisms is fundamentally important. This chapter gives an extensive overview of these mechanisms. Moreover, given the challenges posed by tumor hypoxia we describe the current methods to simulate and detect hypoxic conditions followed by a discussion on current and experimental therapies that target hypoxic cells.
