Interactions between reactive oxygen species and autophagy: Special issue: Death mechanisms in cellular homeostasis. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2021; 1868:119041.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is defined as "a serious imbalance between the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant defences in favour of ROS, causing excessive oxidative damage to biomolecules". Different stressors that induce autophagy, such as starvation and hypoxia, can increase production of ROS such as superoxide and hydrogen peroxide. This review provides brief summaries about oxidative stress and macroautophagy, and then considers current knowledge about the complex interactions between ROS and autophagy. ROS-induced autophagy could be a cellular protective mechanism that alleviates oxidative stress, or a destructive process. Increased ROS levels can regulate autophagy through several different pathways, such as activation of the AMPK signalling cascade and ULK1 complex, Atg4 oxidation, disruption of the Bcl-2/Beclin-1 interaction, and alteration of mitochondrial homeostasis leading to mitophagy. Autophagic degradation of Keap1 activates the antioxidant transcription factor Nrf2 and protects cells against ROS. Autophagy activation can, in turn, regulate oxidative stress by recycling damaged ROS-producing mitochondria. Macroautophagy plays an important role in degradation of large aggregates of oxidatively damaged/unfolded proteins, which are removed by the autophagy-lysosomal system. ROS can regulate autophagy, and in turn, autophagy can regulate oxidative stress. Future studies are necessary to improve understanding of the complex interactions between autophagy and oxidative stress.

Abstract
Several adverse effects of chemotherapy treatments have been described, and most of these effects are associated with direct interactions between blood cells and indirect effects generated during the oxidative metabolism of antineoplastic drugs. In this study we evaluated the oxidative systemic status and hematological profiles of breast cancer patients with advanced ductal infiltrative carcinoma treated with doxorubicin (DOX) or paclitaxel (PTX) within 1 h after chemotherapy. Blood analyses included evaluation of hemogram, pro-oxidative markers, and antioxidant status. The results showed that advanced breast cancer diseased (AD) patients without previous chemotherapy presented anemia and high oxidative stress status characterized by elevated levels of lipid peroxidation and nitric oxide, and reduced catalase activity when compared with controls. DOX-treated patients exhibited increased anemia and reduced antioxidant status, which was revealed by decreases in reduced glutathione levels and the total antioxidant capacity of plasma; however, these changes did not lead to further increases in lipid peroxidation or carbonyl proteins when compared with the AD group. PTX-treated patients also showed increased anemia, lactate dehydrogenase leakage, and enhanced lipid peroxidation. These data reveal for the first time that patients subjected to chemotherapy with DOX or PTX present immediate systemic oxidative stress and red blood cell oxidative injury with anemia development. These findings provide a new perspective on the systemic redox state of AD and patients subjected to chemotherapy regarding oxidative stress enhancement and its possible involvement in the aggravation of chronic anemia.

Abstract
The quinone/semiquinone/hydroquinone triad (Q/SQ(*-)/H(2)Q) represents a class of compounds that has great importance in a wide range of biological processes. The half-cell reduction potentials of these redox couples in aqueous solutions at neutral pH, E degrees ', provide a window to understanding the thermodynamic and kinetic characteristics of this triad and their associated chemistry and biochemistry in vivo. Substituents on the quinone ring can significantly influence the electron density "on the ring" and thus modify E degrees' dramatically. E degrees' of the quinone governs the reaction of semiquinone with dioxygen to form superoxide. At near-neutral pH the pK(a)'s of the hydroquinone are outstanding indicators of the electron density in the aromatic ring of the members of these triads (electrophilicity) and thus are excellent tools to predict half-cell reduction potentials for both the one-electron and two-electron couples, which in turn allow estimates of rate constants for the reactions of these triads. For example, the higher the pK(a)'s of H(2)Q, the lower the reduction potentials and the higher the rate constants for the reaction of SQ(*-) with dioxygen to form superoxide. However, hydroquinone autoxidation is controlled by the concentration of di-ionized hydroquinone; thus, the lower the pK(a)'s the less stable H(2)Q to autoxidation. Catalysts, e.g., metals and quinone, can accelerate oxidation processes; by removing superoxide and increasing the rate of formation of quinone, superoxide dismutase can accelerate oxidation of hydroquinones and thereby increase the flux of hydrogen peroxide. The principal reactions of quinones are with nucleophiles via Michael addition, for example, with thiols and amines. The rate constants for these addition reactions are also related to E degrees'. Thus, pK(a)'s of a hydroquinone and E degrees ' are central to the chemistry of these triads.

Abstract
We have analyzed the mechanism of one-electron reduction of adriamycin (Adr) using recombinant full-length human neuronal nitric-oxide synthase and its flavin domains. Both enzymes catalyzed aerobic NADPH oxidation in the presence of Adr. Calcium/calmodulin (Ca(2+)/CaM) stimulated the NADPH oxidation of Adr. In the presence or absence of Ca(2+)/CaM, the flavin semiquinone radical species were major intermediates observed during the oxidation of the reduced enzyme by Adr. The FAD-NADPH binding domain did not significantly catalyze the reduction of Adr. Neither the FAD semiquinone (FADH*) nor the air-stable semiquinone (FAD-FMNH*) reacted rapidly with Adr. These data indicate that the fully reduced species of FMN (FMNH(2)) donates one electron to Adr, and that the rate of Adr reduction is stimulated by a rapid electron exchange between the two flavins in the presence of Ca(2+)/CaM. Based on these findings, we propose a role for the FAD-FMN pair in the one-electron reduction of Adr.

Abstract
Anthracyclines, a class of antitumor drugs widely used for the treatment of solid and hematological malignancies, cause a cumulative dose-dependent cardiac toxicity whose biochemical basis is unclear. Recent studies of the role of the metabolites of anthracyclines, i.e., the alcohol metabolite doxorubicinol and aglycone metabolites, have suggested new hypotheses about the mechanisms of anthracycline cardiotoxicity. In the present study, human red blood cells were used as a cell model. Exposure (1 h at 37 C) of intact human red blood cells to doxorubicinol (40 M) and to aglycone derivatives of doxorubicin (40 M) induced, compared with untreated red cells: i) a ~2-fold stimulation of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) and ii) a marked inhibition of the red cell antioxidant enzymes, glutathione peroxidase (~20%) and superoxide dismutase (~60%). In contrast to doxorubicin-derived metabolites, doxorubicin itself induced a slighter PPP stimulation (~35%) and this metabolic event was not associated with any alteration in glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase, catalase or superoxide dismutase activity. Furthermore, the interaction of hemoglobin with doxorubicin and its metabolites induced a significant increase (~22%) in oxygen affinity compared with hemoglobin incubated without drugs. On the basis of the results obtained in the present study, a new hypothesis, involving doxorubicinol and aglycone metabolites, has been proposed to clarify the mechanisms responsible for the doxorubicin-induced red blood cell toxicity.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (Adriamycin) is a potent and broad-spectrum antineoplastic agent prescribed for the treatment of a variety of cancers, including both solid tumours and leukaemias. Unfortunately, despite its broad effectiveness, long-term therapy with doxorubicin is associated with a high incidence of a cumulative and irreversible dilated cardiomyopathy. Numerous mechanisms have been proposed to account for this toxicity. Although there is general consensus that doxorubicin undergoes redox cycling to generate free radicals that are responsible for mediating the various cytopathologies associated with drug exposure, the source and subcellular targets continue to be debated. This short review provides a synopsis of the evidence implicating cardiac mitochondria as key intracellular targets, both as sites of generation of highly reactive free radical intermediates as well as targets for the interference with cell calcium regulation and bioenergetic failure that are hallmarks of doxorubicin-induced cardiac failure.

Abstract
It is hypothesized that the cause of myocardiopathy is oxidative damage to mitochondrial DNA. To clarify this hypothesis, DNA polymerase gamma activity, which is related to the final step of mitochondrial DNA repair or renewal, was measured. One cycle of treatment consisted of five injections of adriamycin over 5 days at a dose of 1 mg/kg of body weight per day and then 2 days resting time. DNA polymerase gamma activities in the heart after one cycle of treatment were lower than the control level. However, DNA polymerase gamma activities increased with continued adriamycin treatment, reaching a maximum level in the heart at 14 days after two cycles of adriamycin treatment. Induction of DNA polymerase gamma activity was found in rat heart following three and four cycles of administration. Under these conditions, it is doubtful that mitochondrial DNA is the direct target of adriamycin administration. The damaged mitochondrial DNA may be protected by actions of the renewal or repair systems, maintaining mitochondrial function in the heart. Rat hearts at 7 days after one cycle of adriamycin treatment show morphological changes in the mitochondria that include matrix swelling and cristae disorganization, as seen in cardiac cells by electron microscopy; however, 28 days after treatment, the mitochondria appear to have recovered.

Abstract
We examined the in vitro effects of 2-amino-4, 4alpha-dihydro-4alpha, 7-dimethyl-3H-phenoxazine-3-one(Phx 1)and 3-amino-1, 4alpha-dihydro-4a, 8-dimethyl-2H-phenoxazine-2-one (Phx 2) on the proliferation of phytohemagglutinin (PHA)- or anti-human IgM-activated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Phx 1 and Phx 2 inhibited the incorporation of 3H-thymidine of PHA-activated PBMC by as much as 75% and 40%, respectively, at a concentration of 40 microM. The inhibition was dependent on the dose of Phx 1 and Phx 2. These results strongly suggest that Phx 1 and Phx 2 inhibit proliferation of T cells, because PHA specifically activates the T cells among PBMC. On the other hand, when PBMC were activated by anti-human IgM, which specifically stimulates B cells, the incorporation of 3H-thymidine was rather increased in the presence of 15.8 microM Phx 1 or Phx 2. However, at a higher concentration of Phx 1 or Phx 2 (50 microM), the incorporation of 3H-thymidine was increased by Phx 1, but was inhibited by Phx 2. These results suggest different effects of Phx 1 and Phx 2 on proliferation of human T and B cells.

Abstract
Prooxidant nitroaromatic and quinoidal compounds possess antimalarial activity, which might be attributed either to their formation of reactive oxygen species or to their inhibition of antioxidant enzyme glutathione reductase (GR, EC 1.6.4.2). We have examined the activity in vitro against Plasmodium falciparum of 24 prooxidant compounds of different structure (nitrobenzenes, nitrofurans, quinones, 1,1'-dibenzyl-4,4'-bipyridinium, and methylene blue), which possess a broad range of single-electron reduction potentials (E(1)(7)) and erythrocyte glutathione reductase inhibition constants (K(i(GR))). For a series of homologous derivatives of 2-(5'-nitrofurylvinyl)quinoline-4-carbonic acid, the relationship between compound K(i(GR)) and concentration causing 50% parasite growth inhibition (IC(50)) was absent. For all the compounds examined in this study, the dependence of IC(50) on their K(i(GR)) was insignificant. In contrast, IC(50) decreased with an increase in E(1)(7) and positive electrostatic charge of aromatic part of molecule (Z): log IC(50) (microM) = -(0.9846 +/- 0.3525) - (7.2850 +/- 1.2340) E(1)(7) (V) - (1.1034 +/- 0.1832) Z (r(2) = 0.8015). The redox cycling activity of nitroaromatic and quinoidal compounds in ferredoxin:NADP(+) reductase-catalyzed reaction and the rate of oxyhemoglobin oxidation in lysed erythrocytes increased with an increase in their E(1)(7) value. Our findings imply that the antiplasmodial activity of nitroaromatic and quinoidal compounds is mainly influenced by their ability to form reactive oxygen species, and much less significantly by the GR inhibition.

Abstract
Adriamycin is known to induce the formation of adducts with DNA when reacted under in vitro transcription conditions. The factors affecting the extent of adduct formation were examined in order to establish the critical components and optimal conditions required for the reaction, and to gain insight into the nature of the DNA-adduct complex. There was a strong dependence on reaction temperature (with a 40-fold increase of adducts at 40-50 degrees C compared to 10 degrees C), pH (maximum adducts at pH 7), but little dependence on the oxygen level. There was an absolute requirement for a reducing agent, with adducts detected with DTT, beta-mercaptoethanol and glutathione, maximal adducts were formed at high levels of DTT (5-10 mM). Adducts were also formed with a xanthine oxidase/NADH reducing system, with increasing amounts of adducts detected with increasing NADH; no adducts were detected in the absence of either the enzyme or NADH. Of fourteen derivatives studied, only four yielded a similar extent of adduct formation as adriamycin; there was no absolute requirement for a carbonyl at C13 or hydroxyl at C14. Adducts were also observed with ssDNA but required a longer reaction time compared to dsDNA. The sequence specificity of adduct formation with ssDNA was examined using a primer-extension assay; almost all adducts were associated with a guanine residue. Overall, the results are consistent with a two-step reaction mechanism involving reductive activation of adriamycin, with the activated species then reacting with the guanine residues of either dsDNA or ssDNA.

Abstract
Haemoglobin, either in the intact red blood cells or in their haemolysate, readily reacts with mono- and di-nitrobenzoates. For all the nitroaromatics considered, the rate of the process is faster in the haemolysate than in the whole red blood cell. At low (< 8 mM) concentrations, almost quantitative production of methaemoglobin is observed and the process follows second order kinetics. At higher concentrations, the kinetics become complex and other haemoglobin derivatives are produced. The bimolecular rate constants obtained at low substrate concentrations show little relationship to the nitroaromatic reduction potential. The data indicate that mono-nitrobenzoate derivatives are very active in oxidizing haemoglobin in in vitro erythrocyte suspensions, the activities being similar to that of 3,5-dinitrobenzoate. The measured reactivity follows the order m-nitrobenzoate > 3,5-dinitrobenzoate > p-nitrobenzoate > o-nitrobenzoate and the reactivity of all the compounds is considerably larger than that of nitrobenzene. The present results constitute the first kinetic data bearing on the reactivity of nitroaromatics with haemoglobin, both free and incorporated in the intact red cell. Furthermore, they indicate that the interaction of the nitroaromatics with haemoglobin, leading to total oxidation and transformation, in spite of the total disruption of the membrane, does not produce significant lipid-peroxidation, as measured by chemiluminescence emission, production of TBA reactive material and oxygen consumption.

Abstract
The relative importance in human red blood cells of the plasma membrane as a site of redox activation of anthracyclines as compared to hemoglobin was evaluated by assaying the H2O2 produced upon exposure to daunomycin. The method of H2O2-dependent irreversible inhibition of catalase (EC 1.11.1.6) activity by 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole was applied to intact erythrocytes, as well as to isolated membranes with added purified catalase. The results obtained indicate a secondary role in daunomycin activation for the plasma membrane from a quantitative point of view, although membrane pathways can be more harmful than cytosolic pathways, especially towards extracellular targets, when the high efficiency of the cytosolic antioxidative defences and the external location of the membrane activation site are considered.

Abstract
Adriamycin-Fe3+ caused lipid peroxidation of erythrocyte membrane in relation to its concentration. Adriamycin-Fe3+ had a high affinity for membrane and the adriamycin-Fe(3+)-binding membranes membranes was also found to cause lipid peroxidation. Under aerobic conditions, adriamycin-Fe3+ caused a reduction of cytochrome c and ferrous iron formed spontaneously. Superoxide dismutase (EC 1.15.1.1) (SOD) strongly inhibited the reduction of cytochrome c; however, the enzyme promoted formation of ferrous iron independent of enzymatic action. These results suggest that cytochrome c was reduced by superoxide radical (O2-) or an adriamycin-iron-O2 complex such as adriamycin-Fe(3+)-O2-, but not by adriamycin-Fe2+. The ferrous iron chelator bathophenanthroline sulfonate (BPS) completely inhibited oxygen consumption caused by adriamycin-Fe3+, indicating that ferrous iron is absolutely required for the lipid peroxidation. SOD and hydroxyl radical scavengers did not inhibit the lipid peroxidation, indicating that O2- and hydroxyl radical were not involved in membrane peroxidation. The peroxidation reaction was dramatically inhibited by Tris buffer (2-amino-2-hydroxymethyl-1,3-propanediol). However, hydroxyl radical generation and lipid peroxidation in Tris buffer were not related obviously, indicating that Tris did not act as a hydroxyl radical scavenger. The initial rate of TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances) formation induced by a mixture of adriamycin-Fe3+ and adriamycin-Fe2+ was much faster than that induced by adriamycin-Fe2+ or adriamycin-Fe3+ alone. These results made it became possible to speculate that the lipid peroxidation might be initiated by an adriamycin-Fe(3+)-oxygen-adriamycin-Fe2+ complex.

Abstract
Porphyrias are inherited and acquired diseases of erythroid or hepatic origin, in which there are defects in specific enzymes of the heme biosynthetic pathway. In patients with intermittent acute porphyria and lead poisoning the erythrocytic activities of superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase are reported to be increased. Our studies demonstrated that d-aminolevulinic acid, a heme precursor accumulated in both diseases, undergoes enolization at pH less than 7.0 before it autoxidizes. The autoxidation of d-aminolevulinic acid, in the presence or absence of oxyhemoglobin has been proposed as a source of oxy and carbon-centred radicals in the cells of intermittent acute porphyria and saturnism carriers. Thus, the increased levels of antioxidant enzymes can be viewed as an intracellular response against the deleterious effects of these extremely reactive species.

Abstract
The cytotoxicity of many xenobiotics is related to their ability to undergo redox reactions and iron dependent free radical reactions. We have measured the ability of a number of redox active compounds to release iron from the cellular iron storage protein, ferritin. Compounds were reduced to their corresponding radicals with xanthine oxidase/hypoxanthine under N2 and the release of Fe2+ was monitored by complexation with ferrozine. Ferritin iron was released by a number of bipyridyl radicals including those derived from diquat and paraquat, the anthracycline radicals of adriamycin, daunorubicin and epirubicin, the semiquinones of anthraquinone-2-sulphonate, 1,5 and 2,6-dihydroxyanthraquinone, 1-hydroxyanthraquinone, purpurin, and plumbagin, and the nitroaromatic radicals of nitrofurantoin and metronidazole. In each case, iron release was more efficient than with an equivalent flux of superoxide. Introduction of air decreased the rate of iron release, presumably because the organic radicals reacted with O2 to form superoxide. In air, iron release was inhibited by superoxide dismutase. Semiquinones of menadione, benzoquinone, duroquinone, anthraquinone 1,5 and 2.6-disulphonate, 1,4 naphthoquinone-2-sulphonate and naphthoquinone, when formed under N2, were unable to release ferrin iron. In air, these systems gave low rates of superoxide dismutase-inhibitible iron release. Of the compounds investigated, those with a single electron reduction potential less than that of ferritin were able to release ferritin iron.

Abstract
Tetracycline antibiotics caused the degradation of carbohydrate in the presence of a ferric salt at pH 7.4. This degradation appeared to involve hydroxyl radicals since the damage was substantially reduced by the presence of catalase, superoxide dismutase, scavengers of the hydroxyl radical and metal chelators. Similarly, the tetracycline antibiotics in the presence of a ferric salt greatly stimulated the peroxidation of liposomal membranes. This damage, which did not implicate the hydroxyl radical, was significantly reduced by the addition of chain-breaking antioxidants and metal chelators. Only copper salts in the presence of tetracycline antibiotics, however, caused substantial damage to linear duplex DNA. Studies with inhibitors suggested that damage to DNA did involve hydroxyl radicals.

Abstract
Both metmyoglobin (MbIII) and ferrylmyoglobin (MbIV) are reduced by the menadiol-glutathione conjugate (GS-Q2-) to oxymyoglobin (MbIIO2) or deoxymyoglobin (MbII), depending whether the assay is carried out under aerobic or anaerobic conditions, respectively. Under aerobic conditions, the reduction of MbIII to MbIIO2 by GS-Q2- is associated with O2 consumption. The latter process is accounted for by (a) the autoxidation of the conjugate yielding H2O2 and (b) the rapid binding of O2 to MbII to yield MbIIO2. The ratio [O2]consumed/[MbIIO2]formed is approximately 1.5 at the time when MbIIO2 formation is maximal (at about 0.8 min). This ratio, higher than the unit, indicates that there is more than one O2-consuming reaction in this experimental model. The ratio of initial rates of O2 consumption and MbIIO2 formation is close to the unit [(-dO2/dt)/(+ dMbIIO2/dt) = 1.1]. The formation of H2O2 originating during the autoxidation of the GS-Q2- is substantially lower in the presence of MbIII, probably due to the heterolytic cleavage of the O--O bond of the peroxide by the hemoprotein. Although the latter reaction should yield MbIV, this species is not observed in the absorption spectrum, probably due to its rapid reduction by GS-Q2-. MbIV is reduced to MbIIO2 by the GS-Q2-. Whether this reaction takes place in one-electron transfer steps, that is, the sequence: MbIV----MbIII----MbIIO2 is difficult to evaluate by absorption spectral analysis, due to the rapid rate of the [MbIV----MbIIO2] transition. Under anaerobic conditions, the reduction of either MbIII or MbIV by GS-Q2- yields MbII as a stable molecular product. Anaerobic conditions prevent any further interaction of MbII with intermediates of O2 reduction derived from GS-Q2- autoxidation.

Abstract
Erythrocytes might be expected to be highly susceptible to peroxidation. Their membranes are rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids; they are continuously exposed to high concentrations of oxygen; and they contain a powerful transition metal catalyst. In fact, autoxidation is held in check in vivo by extremely efficient protective antioxidant mechanisms. These involve cellular enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase, as well as vitamin E; but they mainly reflect effective structural compartmentalisation. This review surveys mechanisms which lead to red cell lipid autoxidation and the role of haemoglobin in these processes. The influence of haemoglobinopathies, of lipid composition and of abnormalities in antioxidant mechanisms induced by exogenous oxidant stress is also considered.

Abstract
The possible role of cytochrome P-450 in one-electron reduction of quinoid compounds as well as in the formation of reduced oxygen species was investigated in hepatic microsomal and reconstituted systems of purified cytochrome P-450 and purified NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase using electron spin resonance (ESR) methods. Two compounds were selected as model compounds: N-acetyl-parabenzoquinone imine (NAPQI) and 3,5-dimethyl-N-acetyl-para-benzoquinone imine (3,5-dimethyl-NAPQI). Both compounds could be reduced by oxyhaemoglobin, the semiquinones formed were detectable by ESR and did not reduce molecular oxygen. Both NAPQI and 3,5-dimethyl-NAPQI underwent one-electron reduction in microsomal systems and in fully reconstituted systems of cytochrome P-450 and NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase under anaerobic and aerobic conditions. In both incubation systems the semiquinone formation was diminished under aerobic circumstances and concomitant reduction of oxygen occurred, leading to the formation of hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl free radicals. Both the reduction of the quinone imines and the reduction of oxygen were found to be cytochrome P-450 dependent. Both activities of cytochrome P-450 may also be involved in the bioactivation of other compounds with quinoid structural elements, like many chemotherapeutic agents.

Abstract
All oxidative damage in biological systems arises ultimately from molecular oxygen. Molecular oxygen can scavenge carbon-centered free radicals to form organic peroxyl radicals and hence organic hydroperoxides. Molecular oxygen can also be reduced in two one-electron steps to hydrogen peroxide in which case superoxide anion is an intermediate; or it can be reduced enzymatically so that no superoxide is released. Organic hydroperoxides or hydrogen peroxide can diffuse through membranes whereas hydroxyl radicals or superoxide anion cannot. Chain reactions, initiated by chelated iron and peroxides, can cause tremendous damage. Chain carriers are chelated ferrous ion; hydroxyl radical .OH, or alkoxyl radical .OR, and superoxide anion O2-. or organic peroxyl radical RO2.. Of these free radicals .OH and RO2. appear to be most harmful. All of the biological molecules containing iron are potential donors of iron as a chain initiator and propagator. An attacking role for superoxide dismutase is proposed in the phagocytic process in which it may serve as an intermediate enzyme between NADPH oxidase and myeloperoxidase. The sequence of reactants is O2----O2-.----H2O2----HOCl.

Abstract
The direct oxidation of PUFA by triplet oxygen is spin forbidden. The data reviewed indicate that lipid peroxidation is initiated by nonenzymatic and enzymatic reactions. One of the first steps in the initiation of lipid peroxidation in animal tissues is by the generation of a superoxide radical (see Figure 16), or its protonated molecule, the perhydroxyl radical. The latter could directly initiate PUFA peroxidation. Hydrogen peroxide which is produced by superoxide dismutation or by direct enzymatic production (amine oxidase, glucose oxidase, etc.) has a very crucial role in the initiation of lipid peroxidation. Hydrogen peroxide reduction by reduced transition metal generates hydroxyl radicals which oxidize every biological molecule. Hydrogen peroxide also activates myoglobin, hemoglobin, and other heme proteins to a compound containing iron at a higher oxidation state, Fe(IV) or Fe(V), which initiates lipid peroxidation even on membranes. Complexed iron could also be activated by O2- or by H2O2 to ferryl iron compound, which is supposed to initiate PUFA peroxidation. The presence of hydrogen peroxide, especially hydroperoxides, activates enzymes such as cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase. These enzymes produce hydroperoxides and other physiological active compounds known as eicosanoids. Lipid peroxidation could also be initiated by other free radicals. The control of superoxide and perhydroxyl radical is done by SOD (a) (see Figure 16). Hydrogen peroxide is controlled in tissues by glutathione-peroxidase, which also affects the level of hydroperoxides (b). Hydrogen peroxide is decomposed also by catalase (b). Caeruloplasmin in extracellular fluids prevents the formation of free reduced iron ions which could decompose hydrogen peroxide to hydroxyl radical (c). Hydroxyl radical attacks on target lipid molecules could be prevented by hydroxyl radical scavengers, such as mannitol, glucose, and formate (d). Reduced compounds and antioxidants (ascorbic acid, alpha-tocopherol, polyphenols, etc.) (e) prevent initiation of lipid peroxidation by activated heme proteins, ferryl ion, and cyclo- and lipoxygenase. In addition, cyclooxygenase is inhibited by aspirin and nonsteroid drugs, such as indomethacin (f). The classical soybean lipoxygenase inhibitors are antioxidants, such as nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) and others, and the substrate analog 5,8,11,14 eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA), which also inhibit cyclooxygenase (g). In food, lipoxygenase is inhibited by blanching. Initiation of lipid peroxidation was derived also by free radicals, such as NO2. or CCl3OO. This process could be controlled by antioxidants (e).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Adriamycin (doxorubicin) was encapsulated in human erythrocytes by means of a dialysis technique involving transient hypotonic hemolysis followed by isotonic resealing. Up to 1.6 mg of the drug was entrapped per ml of packed erythrocytes, with the efficiency of encapsulation being 60-80%. In vitro incubation of the Adriamycin-loaded erythrocytes in autologous plasma was accompanied by progressive release of unaltered Adriamycin in the medium. The efflux was still evident after 50 hr. The metabolism of encapsulated Adriamycin was restricted to limited formation of the C-13 hydroxylated metabolite, adriamycinol, in the normal erythrocytes but not in erythrocytes from individuals deficient in glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (D-glucose-6-phosphate: NADP+ 1-oxidoreductase, EC 1.1.1.49) activity. Reductive bioactivation of encapsulated Adriamycin to yield the corresponding aglycones was not observed in a variety of conditions. However, when NADPH ferredoxin reductase and ferredoxin, both purified from spinach leaves, were co-entrapped within erythrocytes and allowed to catalyze electron transfer to Adriamycin intracellularly under N2, a quantitative conversion to 7-deoxyadriamycin aglycone was obtained. Adriamycin-loaded erythrocytes did not show any significant oxidative damage, except for a variable increase of methemoglobin, suggesting some redox cycling between native Adriamycin and its semiquinone radical. Encapsulation of Adriamycin in autologous human erythrocytes may represent a therapeutic strategy for the slow release in circulation of this antineoplastic drug in order to reduce or prevent its adverse effects and especially the delayed cardiotoxicity that limits its use in patients with neoplastic disease.

Abstract
The anthracycline antitumor antibiotics occupy a central position in the chemotherapeutic control of cancer. They remain, however, antibiotics of the last resort and thus exhibit toxicity both to the neoplasm and to the host organism. As part of the continuing effort to dissociate the molecular processes responsible for these two separate toxicities, attention has been drawn to the intrinsic redox capacity of their tetrahydronapthacenedione aglycone moiety, and to the possible expression of this redox activity against those biomolecules for which anthracyclines have a particular affinity (polynucleotides and membranes). This review is a synopsis of the present trends and thoughts concerning this relationship, written from the point of view of the intrinsic chemical competence of the anthracyclines and their metabolites. While our ignorance is profound--the precise molecular locus of the antitumor expression of the anthracyclines remains unknown--there is now evidence that the relationship of the anthracyclines to the DNA (possibly requiring enzymatic cooperation) and to the membranes, with neither event requiring redox chemistry, may comprise the core of the antitumor effects. The adventitious expression of the redox activity under either aerobic conditions (in which circumstances molecular oxygen is reduced) or anaerobic conditions (in which circumstances potentially reactive aglycone tautomers are obtained) is therefore thought to contribute more strongly to the host toxicity. Yet little remains proven, and the understanding of the intrinsic chemical competence can do little more than lightly define the boundaries within which are found these and numerous other working hypotheses.

Reactive intermediates of such reactions can include drug free radicals, H2O2, and O2-, as well as peroxidatively active ferrylhemoglobin and methemoglobin-H2O2. The contributions of these species to hemoglobin denaturation and drug-induced hemolysis, and the actions of various protective agents, are considered.

Abstract
The present study has examined early cellular effects of chronic adriamycin administration to dogs using a protocol (1 mg/kg/week to a total cumulative dose of 240 mg/m2) producing significant but small reductions in ejection fraction and stroke volume as determined echocardiographically prior to the development of clinical or radiological manifestations of heart failure. At this early phase of cardiomyopathy, significant reduction (P less than 0.05) in sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+, K+-ATPase was observed without any change in mitochondrial, lysosomal or sarcolemmal marker enzymes. Myocardial calcium (P less than 0.01) and glutathione (P less than 0.001) levels were increased significantly. Detailed analysis of myocardial phospholipid profiles failed to show any significant differences between control and treated dogs. In contrast, red cell membranes showed increased phosphatidylcholine (PC) and decreased phosphatidylserine (PS) contents, resulting in a significant increase in PC/PS ratio (P less than 0.05). No significant changes were detected in activities of catalase, superoxide dismutase or glutathione peroxidase in erythrocytes or myocardial tissue from control and adriamycin-treated animals. A significant (P less than 0.05) elevation in plasma sialic acid was observed following adriamycin treatment. Our results suggest that early adriamycin-induced damage is unlikely to result from alterations in cellular processes protecting tissues against oxidant injury. Regression analysis indicated that, of the various abnormalities observed, only the elevated myocardial calcium levels and the increases in plasma sialic acid correlated with the degree of myocardial functional impairment. Our findings suggest the presence of sarcolemmal alterations in Ca2+ handling in early adriamycin-induced myocardial injury and indicate that measurement of plasma sialic acid should be further investigated as a possible noninvasive indicator of impending adriamycin cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
Various aspects of the cardiotoxicity of the anthracycline derivative and antineoplastic drug daunorubicin were investigated using isolated and cultured cells from neonatal rat hearts as a model system. Treatment of the cells with concentrations of daunorubicin of the same order of magnitude as those used in chemotherapy was accompanied by marked toxic effects, e.g. a decreased or abolished contraction, and release of lactate dehydrogenase, pyruvate and oxidized glutathione to the medium. A decreased frequency of contraction appeared to be the most sensitive probe of daunorubicin toxicity, followed by release of pyruvate and oxidized glutathione/lactate dehydrogenase. Daunorubicin and/or its metabolites also bound to cellular protein and DNA. Exposure to daunorubicin was shown to be accompanied by a rapid induction of primarily DT-diaphorase and a slower induction of glutathione transferase. The latter observations are interpreted to indicate a protective role of quinone- and peroxide-metabolizing enzymes, respectively, and support the hypothesis that daunorubicin toxicity involves generation of free radical derivatives, which initiate lipid peroxidation. This conclusion is further substantiated by the demonstration that addition of daunorubicin leads to an increased oxygen consumption.

Abstract
The production of hydroxyl radicals in rat myocardial sarcosomes treated with adriamycin was demonstrated by the electron spin resonance technique of spin trapping. Using the spin trapping agent 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO), the formation of a hydroxyl radical spin adduct was observed in adriamycin-treated rat heart sarcosomes with NADPH as co-factor. Oxygen, NADPH and sarcosomal protein were absolute requirements for hydroxyl radical production. Hydroxyl radical spin adduct formation was not inhibited by the metal ion chelators diethylenetriaminepenta-acetic acid (DETAPAC) or desferrioxamine, or by addition of superoxide dismutase but could be inhibited by addition of catalase and high concentration of the hydroxyl radical scavengers mannitol and N-acetylcysteine. Hydroxyl radical production in adriamycin-treated rat myocardial sarcosomes appears to arise from the reductive metabolism of adriamycin by an NADPH-dependent quinone reductase--NADPH: cytochrome P450 reductase; the reduced quinone (semiquinone) reduces oxygen to hydrogen peroxide, probably via superoxide, although this was not detected. The hydrogen peroxide appears to react directly with adriamycin semiquinone, although involvement of traces of iron in a Fenton type of reaction cannot be excluded. From the observations it is suggested that adriamycin-induced cardiotoxicity is an oxidative pathology arising from intracellular generation of relatively high levels of hydroxyl radicals.

Abstract
The interaction of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) with metmyoglobin (MetMb) led very rapidly to the generation of an active species which could initiate lipid peroxidation. The activity of this prooxidant decreased rapidly during the first minutes, but 50% of its activity remained stable for more than 30 min. In this model system, it was found that small amounts of H2O2 (1-10 microM) could activate MetMb for significant lipid peroxidation. The incubation of the sarcosomal lipids with activated MetMb caused oxygen absorption. No absorption of oxygen was determined in the presence of membrane with MetMb or H2O2 alone. Methemoglobin (MetHb) was also found to be activated by H2O2 and to initiate lipid peroxidation. Membranal lipid peroxidation initiated by activated MetMb was inhibited by several reducing compounds and antioxidants. However, several hydroxyl radical scavengers and catalase failed to inhibit this reaction.

Abstract
Doxorubicin semiquinone, produced by reduction of doxorubicin with xanthine oxidase or ferredoxin reductase, reacted with H2O2 to cause deoxyribose oxidation that was catalysed by sub-micromolar concentrations of complexed iron. Both the mechanism of deoxyribose oxidation and the yield of oxidation products depended on the chelator. With EDTA or diethylenetriamine penta-acetic acid (DTPA), the reactive species behaved like free . OH. However, when ADP or no chelator was present, oxidation of deoxyribose was inhibited by mannitol but not benzoate or formate and was apparently not due to free . OH. Doxorubicin semiquinone and H2O2 caused peroxidation of phospholipid liposomes when ADP or no chelator was present, but not in the presence of EDTA or DTPA. Lipid peroxidation was iron dependent over a 0.1 to 1 microM range and was maximal with a pO2 of approximately 1.5 mm Hg, when the inhibitory effect of O2 on initiation is balanced by its stimulatory effects on propagation. The results imply that H2O2 and the doxorubicin semiquinone at low iron and O2 concentrations are very effective at initiating lipid peroxidation.

Abstract
A mixture of NADPH and ferredoxin reductase is a convenient way of reducing adriamycin in vitro. Under aerobic conditions the adriamycin semiquinone reacts rapidly with O2 and superoxide radical is produced. Superoxide generated either by adriamycin:ferredoxin reductase or by hypoxanthine:xanthine oxidase can promote the formation of hydroxyl radicals in the presence of soluble iron chelates. Hydroxyl radicals produced by a hypoxanthine:xanthine oxidase system in the presence of an iron chelate cause extensive fragmentation in double-stranded DNA. Protection is offered by catalase, superoxide dismutase or desferrioxamine. Addition of double-stranded DNA to a mixture of adriamycin, ferredoxin reductase, NADPH and iron chelate inhibits formation of both superoxide and hydroxyl radicals. This is not due to direct inhibition of ferredoxin reductase and single-stranded DNA has a much weaker inhibitory effect. It is concluded that adriamycin intercalated into DNA cannot be reduced.

Abstract
Spin trapping of the free radicals formed from the interaction between adriamycin and red blood cells resulted in the formation of a hydroxyl spin adduct. The formation of hydroxyl radicals was found to be inhibited by mannitol. Hemoglobin was found not to be obligatory for the formation of hydroxyl radicals which probably result from the reduction of hydrogen peroxide by adriamycin semiquinone.

Abstract
We report our finding that the reaction between the adriamycin semiquinone (produced by reduction of the drug by xanthine oxidase) and H2O2 in N2 causes deoxyribose degradation to a thiobarbituric acid-reactive chromogen. Deoxyribose breakdown was inhibited by scavengers of hydroxyl radicals, providing evidence for the participation of hydroxyl radicals. The reaction was detected in air, but was less efficient in air than in N2. Deoxyribose degradation did not require a metal catalyst, and was inhibited by superoxide dismutase in air, but not N2. A similar reaction with deoxyribose in DNA may be of major importance in the antitumour action of adriamycin.
