Abstract
Significance: Redox pioneer Helmut Sies attempted to explain reactive species' challenges faced by organelles, cells, tissues, and organs via three complementary definitions: (i) oxidative stress, that is, the disturbance in the prooxidant-antioxidant defense balance in favor of the prooxidants; (ii) oxidative eustress, the low physiological exposure to prooxidants; and (iii) oxidative distress, the supraphysiological exposure to prooxidants. Recent Advances: Identification, concentration, and interactions are the most important elements to improve our understanding of reactive species in physiology and pathology. In this context, the reactive species interactome (RSI) is a new multilevel redox regulatory system that identifies reactive species families, reactive oxygen species (ROS), reactive nitrogen species (RNS), and reactive sulfur species, and it integrates their interactions with their downstream biological targets. Critical Issues: We propose a united view to fully combine reactive species identification, oxidative eustress and distress, and the RSI system. In this view, we also propose including the forgotten reactive carbonyl species, an increasingly rediscovered reactive species family related to the other reactive families, and key enzymes within the RSI. We focus on brain physiology and pathology to demonstrate why this united view should be considered. Future Directions: More studies are needed for an improved understanding of the contributions of reactive species through their identification, concentration, and interactions, including in the brain. Appreciating the RSI in its entirety should unveil new molecular players and mechanisms in physiology and pathology in the brain and elsewhere.

Abstract
Aim: Our objective was to develop and qualify a bioanalytical method for the estimation of di-18:1-bis(monoacylglycero)phosphate (di-18:1 BMP) as a urinary biomarker for the assessment of drug-induced phospholipidosis and demonstrate its application in a preclinical study. Methodology/results: di-18:1 BMP was extracted by liquid-liquid extraction using n-butanol and analyzed by LC-MS/MS. The qualified method was selective, precise, robust and accurate across the linearity range (0.2-250 ng/ml). Qualified method was then used to assess chloroquine-induced phospholipidosis in rats dosed at 120 mg/kg for 5 days. A fivefold increase in di-18:1 BMP was observed on Day 5 compared with predose. Conclusion: Di-18:1 BMP can be used as a noninvasive biomarker to assess/screen compounds that could cause drug-induced phospholipidosis in rats.

Abstract
Under oxidative stress conditions, hydroxyl radicals can oxidize the phenyl ring of phenylalanine, producing the abnormal tyrosine isomer meta-tyrosine (m-tyrosine). m-Tyrosine levels are commonly used as a biomarker of oxidative stress, and its accumulation has recently been reported to adversely affect cells, suggesting a direct role for m-tyrosine in oxidative stress effects. We found that the Caenorhabditis elegans ortholog of tyrosine aminotransferase (TATN-1)-the first enzyme involved in the metabolic degradation of tyrosine-is up-regulated in response to oxidative stress and directly activated by the oxidative stress-responsive transcription factor SKN-1. Worms deficient in tyrosine aminotransferase activity displayed increased sensitivity to multiple sources of oxidative stress. Biochemical assays revealed that m-tyrosine is a substrate for TATN-1-mediated deamination, suggesting that TATN-1 also metabolizes m-tyrosine. Consistent with a toxic effect of m-tyrosine and a protective function of TATN-1, tatn-1 mutant worms exhibited delayed development, marked reduction in fertility, and shortened lifespan when exposed to m-tyrosine. A forward genetic screen identified a mutation in the previously uncharacterized gene F01D4.5-homologous with human transcription factor 20 (TCF20) and retinoic acid-induced 1 (RAI1)-that suppresses the adverse phenotypes observed in m-tyrosine-treated tatn-1 mutant worms. RNA-Seq analysis of F01D4.5 mutant worms disclosed a significant reduction in the expression of specific isoforms of genes encoding ribosomal proteins, suggesting that alterations in protein synthesis or ribosome structure could diminish the adverse effects of m-tyrosine. Our findings uncover a critical role for tyrosine aminotransferase in the oxidative stress response via m-tyrosine metabolism.

Asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation for improved characterization of human plasma lipoproteins. Anal Bioanal Chem 2018; 411:777-786.

Abstract
High- and low-density lipoproteins (HDL and LDL) are attractive targets for biomarker discovery. However, ultracentrifugation (UC), the current methodology of choice for isolating HDL and LDL, is tedious, requires large sample volume, results in sample loss, and does not readily provide information on particle size. In this work, human plasma HDL and LDL are separated and collected using semi-preparative asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation (SP-AF4) and UC. The SP-AF4 and UC separation conditions, sample throughput, and liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) lipidomic results are compared. Over 600 μg of total proteins is recovered in a single SP-AF4 run, and Western blot results confirm apoA1 pure and apoB100 pure fractions, consistent with HDL and LDL, respectively. The SP-AF4 separation requires ~ 60 min per sample, thus providing a marked improvement over UC which can span hours to days. Lipidome analysis of SP-AF4-prepared HDL and LDL fractions is compared to UC-prepared HDL and LDL samples. Over 270 lipids in positive MS mode and over 140 lipids in negative MS mode are identified by both sample preparation techniques with over 98% overlap between the lipidome. Additionally, lipoprotein size distributions are determined using analytical scale AF4 coupled with multiangle light scattering (MALS) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) detectors. These developments position SP-AF4 as a sample preparation method of choice for lipoprotein biomarker characterization and identification. Graphical abstract ᅟ.

Abstract
AIM To investigate common polymorphisms in VEGF, ACE, TNF and GST genes with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) risk among Chinese infants. METHODS Nine polymorphisms in the above genes were genotyped on 724 advanced cases of ROP and 878 prematurely-born infants of low birth weight who were without any ophthalmologic disease. The frequencies of the polymorphisms were compared between cases and controls to identify the association present, if any. RESULTS Of the nine polymorphisms, only two showed significant associations: ACE insertion deletion (ID) polymorphism (P=0.031) and TNF -308G/A polymorphism (P<0.001). The former was associated with a reduced ROP risk [ID genotype, adjusted OR (aOR): 0.603, 95%CI: 0.427-0.893, P=0.034; DD genotype, aOR: 0.468, 95%CI: 0.229-0.626, P=0.002], while the latter showed an increased risk (GA genotype, aOR: 1.956, 95%CI: 1.396-2.465, P<0.001; AA genotype, aOR: 2.809, 95%CI: 1.802-4.484, P<0.001). The association was also noted at the allele level (ACE D allele aOR: 0.698, 95%CI: 0.294-0.883, P<0.001; TNF -308A allele aOR: 1.776, 95%CI: 1.446-2.561, P<0.001). CONCLUSION The ACE ID polymorphism can protect against ROP development while the TNF -308G/A can increase the risk of the disease among Chinese infants.

Abstract
This study was conducted to further our understanding about the link between lipid peroxidation and protein carbonylation in rat brain slices incubated with the glutathione (GSH)-depletor diethyl maleate. Using this in vitro system of oxidative stress, we found that there is a significant lag between the appearance of carbonylated proteins and GSH depletion, which seems to be due to the removal of oxidized species early on in the incubation by the mitochondrial Lon protease. Upon acute GSH depletion, protein carbonyls accumulated mostly in mitochondria and to a lesser degree in other subcellular fractions that also contain high levels of polyunsaturated lipids. This result is consistent with our previous findings suggesting that lipid hydroperoxides mediate the oxidation of proteins in this system. However, these lipid hydroperoxides are not produced by oxidation of free arachidonic acid or other polyunsaturated free fatty acids by lipooxygenases or cyclooxygenases. Finally, γ-glutamyl semialdehyde and 2-amino-adipic semialdehyde were identified by HPLC as the carbonyl-containing amino acid residues, indicating that proteins are carbonylated by metal ion-catalyzed oxidation of lysine, arginine and proline residues. The present findings are important in the context of neurological disorders that exhibit increased lipid peroxidation and protein carbonylation, such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and multiple sclerosis.

Abstract
AIMS To assess the role of oxidative stress in mediating adverse outcomes in metabolic syndrome (MetS) and resultant cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN), and to evaluate the effects of lifestyle interventions on measures of oxidative stress and CAN in subjects with MetS. METHODS Pilot study in 25 non-diabetic subjects with MetS (age 49±10years, 76% females) participating in a 24-week lifestyle intervention (supervised aerobic exercise/Mediterranean diet), and 25 age-matched healthy controls. CAN was assessed by cardiovascular reflex tests, heart rate variability (HRV) and PET imaging with sympathetic analog [11C] meta-hydroxyephedrine ([11C]HED). Specific oxidative fingerprints were measured by liquid-chromatography/mass-spectrometry (LC/MS). RESULTS At baseline, MetS subjects had significantly higher oxidative stress markers [3-nitrotyrosine (234±158 vs. 54±47μmol/mol tyrosine), ortho-tyrosine (59±38 vs. 18±10μmol/molphenylalanine, all P<0.0001], and impaired HRV at rest and during deep breathing (P=0.039 and P=0.021 respectively) compared to controls. Twenty-four-week lifestyle intervention significantly reduced all oxidative stress markers (all P<0.01) but did not change any of the CAN measures. CONCLUSIONS Subjects with MetS present with signs of CAN and increased oxidative stress in the absence of diabetes. The 24-week lifestyle intervention was effective in ameliorating oxidative stress, but did not improve measures of CAN. Larger clinical trials with longer duration are required to confirm these findings.

Abstract
The damage to cellular components by reactive oxygen species, termed oxidative stress, both increases with age and likely contributes to age-related diseases including Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis, diabetes, and cataract formation. In the setting of oxidative stress, hydroxyl radicals can oxidize the benzyl ring of the amino acid phenylalanine, which then produces the abnormal tyrosine isomers meta-tyrosine or ortho-tyrosine. While elevations in m-tyrosine and o-tyrosine concentrations have been used as a biological marker of oxidative stress, there is emerging evidence from bacterial, plant, and mammalian studies demonstrating that these isomers, particularly m-tyrosine, directly produce adverse effects to cells and tissues. These new findings suggest that the abnormal tyrosine isomers could in fact represent mediators of the effects of oxidative stress. Consequently the accumulation of m- and o-tyrosine may disrupt cellular homeostasis and contribute to disease pathogenesis, and as result, effective defenses against oxidative stress can encompass not only the elimination of reactive oxygen species but also the metabolism and ultimately the removal of the abnormal tyrosine isomers from the cellular amino acid pool. Future research in this area is needed to clarify the biologic mechanisms by which the tyrosine isomers damage cells and disrupt the function of tissues and organs and to identify the metabolic pathways involved in removing the accumulated isomers after exposure to oxidative stress.

Abstract
Oxidative stress plays a central role in the pathogenesis of diverse chronic inflammatory disorders including diabetic complications, cardiovascular disease, aging, and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Patients with moderate to advanced CKD have markedly increased levels of oxidative stress and inflammation that likely contribute to the unacceptable high rates of morbidity and mortality in this patient population. Oxidative stress is defined as an imbalance of the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in excess of the capacity of cells/tissues to detoxify or scavenge them. Such a state of oxidative stress may alter the structure/function of cellular macromolecules and tissues that eventually leads to organ dysfunction. The harmful effects of ROS have been largely attributed to its indiscriminate, stochastic effects on the oxidation of protein, lipids, or DNA but in many instances the oxidants target particular amino acid residues or lipid moieties. Oxidant mechanisms are intimately involved in cell signaling and are linked to several key redox-sensitive signaling pathways in fibrogenesis. Dysregulation of antioxidant mechanisms and overproduction of ROS not only promotes a fibrotic milieu but leads to mitochondrial dysfunction and further exacerbates kidney injury. Our studies support the hypothesis that unique reactive intermediates generated in localized microenvironments of vulnerable tissues such as the kidney activate fibrogenic pathways and promote end-organ damage. The ability to quantify these changes and assess response to therapies will be pivotal in understanding disease mechanisms and monitoring efficacy of therapy.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a high production volume chemical and an endocrine disruptor. Developmental exposures to BPA have been linked to adult metabolic pathologies, but the pathways through which these disruptions occur remain unknown. This is a comprehensive interspecies association vs causal study to evaluate risks posed by prenatal BPA exposure and to facilitate discovery of biomarkers of relevance to BPA toxicity. Samples from human pregnancies during the first trimester and at term, as well as fetal and/or adult samples from prenatally BPA-treated sheep, rats, and mice, were collected to assess the impact of BPA on free fatty acid and oxidative stress dynamics. Mothers exposed to higher BPA during early to midpregnancy and their matching term cord samples displayed increased 3-nitrotyrosine (NY), a marker of nitrosative stress. Maternal samples had increased palmitic acid, which was positively correlated with NY. Sheep fetuses and adult sheep and rats prenatally exposed to a human-relevant exposure dose of BPA showed increased systemic nitrosative stress. The strongest effect of BPA on circulating free fatty acids was observed in adult mice in the absence of increased oxidative stress. This is the first multispecies study that combines human association and animal causal studies assessing the risk posed by prenatal BPA exposure to metabolic health. This study provides evidence of the induction of nitrosative stress by prenatal BPA in both the mother and fetus at time of birth and is thus supportive of the use of maternal NY as a biomarker for offspring health.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate erythrocyte redox state and its surrogates in patients with different stages of diabetic retinopathy and their association with cellular metabolic derangement developed in retinal microvascular cells. METHODS Sixty type 2 diabetic patients with nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), 85 patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), and 70 patients with diabetes but without retinopathy were considered as diabetic control (DC) for the study. In addition, 65 normal individuals without diabetes were enrolled as healthy control in this study. Erythrocyte oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate / reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP / NADPH), oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide / reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD / NADH) glutathione, plasma and vitreous lactate, and pyruvate levels were determined by enzymatic reaction-based spectrophotometric assay for the patients and individuals. RESULT Erythrocyte NADP+ to NADPH ratio to NADPH ratio was found to be significantly higher among NPDR and PDR patients compared with DC subjects (P < 0.0001). Erythrocyte-reduced glutathione was significantly decreased in patients of NPDR (P = 0.0004) and patients of PDR (P = 0.0157) compared to DC. Erythrocyte NAD to NADH ratio was also significantly decreased in patients of NPDR (P < 0.0001) and PDR (P < 0.0001) compared to DC subjects. Lactate to pyruvate ratio of plasma was elevated significantly in patients with NPDR compared with DC (P < 0.0001) and those having PDR (P = 0.0046). In the vitreous fluid, the lactate to pyruvate ratios were found to be significantly lower in normal individuals without diabetes compared with patients having PDR (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION Hyperglycemia-mediated erythrocyte redox state alterations might be a potential risk factor for the development of NPDR in poorly controlled diabetic subjects.

Abstract
Elevated levels of pro-oxidants and various markers of oxidative tissue damage were found in diabetic patients, indicating involvement of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus (DM). On one side, physiological levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important role in redox signaling of various cells, while on the other, excessive ROS production can jeopardize the integrity and physiological functions of cellular macromolecules, in particular proteins, thus contributing to the pathogenesis of DM. Reactive aldehydes, especially 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), are considered as second messengers of free radicals that act both as signaling molecules and as cytotoxic products of lipid peroxidation causing long-lasting biological consequences, in particular by covalent modification of macromolecules. Accordingly, the HNE and related reactive aldehydes may play important roles in the pathophysiology of DM, both in the development of the disease and in its progression and complications due to the following: (i) exposure of cells to supraphysiological levels of 4-hydroxyalkenals, (ii) persistent and sustained generation of 4-hydroxyalkenals that progressively affect vulnerable cells that lack an efficient bioactive aldehyde neutralization system, (iii) altered redox signaling influenced by reactive aldehydes, in particular by HNE, and (iv) induction of extracellular generation of similar aldehydes under secondary pathological conditions, such as low-grade inflammation.

Abstract
Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is the most common complication of diabetes and is characterized by distal-to-proximal loss of peripheral nerve axons. The idea of tissue-specific pathological alterations in energy metabolism in diabetic complications-prone tissues is emerging. Altered nerve metabolism in type 1 diabetes models is observed; however, therapeutic strategies based on these models offer limited efficacy to type 2 diabetic patients with DN. Therefore, understanding how peripheral nerves metabolically adapt to the unique type 2 diabetic environment is critical to develop disease-modifying treatments. In the current study, we utilized targeted liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) to characterize the glycolytic and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle metabolomes in sural nerve, sciatic nerve, and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) from male type 2 diabetic mice (BKS.Cg-m+/+Lepr(db); db/db) and controls (db/+). We report depletion of glycolytic intermediates in diabetic sural nerve and sciatic nerve (glucose-6-phosphate, fructose-6-phosphate, fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (sural nerve only), 3-phosphoglycerate, 2-phosphoglycerate, phosphoenolpyruvate, and lactate), with no significant changes in DRG. Citrate and isocitrate TCA cycle intermediates were decreased in sural nerve, sciatic nerve, and DRG from diabetic mice. Utilizing LC/electrospray ionization/MS/MS and HPLC methods, we also observed increased protein and lipid oxidation (nitrotyrosine; hydroxyoctadecadienoic acids) in db/db tissue, with a proximal-to-distal increase in oxidative stress, with associated decreased aconitase enzyme activity. We propose a preliminary model, whereby the greater change in metabolomic profile, increase in oxidative stress, and decrease in TCA cycle enzyme activity may cause distal peripheral nerves to rely on truncated TCA cycle metabolism in the type 2 diabetes environment.

Abstract
Phosphatidylethanolamines (PE) are one of the major components of cells membranes, namely in skin and in retina, that are continuously exposed to solar UV radiation being major targets of photooxidation damage. In addition, due to the presence of the free amine group, PE can also undergo glycation, in hyperglycemic conditions which may increase the susceptibility to oxidation. The aim of this study is to develop a model, based on mass spectrometry (MS) analysis, to identify photooxidative degradation of selected PE (POPE: PE 16:0/18:1, PLPE: PE 16:0/18:2, PAPE: PE 16:0/20:4) and glycated PEs due to UV irradiation. Photooxidation products were analysed by electrospray ionization MS (ESI-MS) and tandem MS (ESI-MS/MS) in positive and negative mode. Emphasis is placed in the influence of glycation in the generation of distinct photooxidation products. ESI-MS spectra of PE after UV photo-irradiation showed mainly hydroperoxy derivatives, due to oxidation of unsaturated fatty acyl chains. Glycated PE gave rise to several new photooxidation products formed due to oxidative cleavages of the glucose moiety, namely between C1 and C2, C2 and C3, and C5 and C6 of this sugar unit. These new products were identified by ESI-MS/MS in positive mode showing distinct neutral loss depending on the different structure of the polar head group. These new identified advanced glycated photooxidation products may have a deleterious role in the etiology of diabetic retinopathy and in diabetic retinal microvascular complications.

Abstract
Compensatory growth, a frequent phenomenon observed in ruminants due to seasonal variation in food availability, affects protein metabolism including protein oxidation. These oxidation processes may have an impact on animal health as well as on meat protein degradation during post mortem aging (ie meat maturation). Sixteen male lambs were randomly divided into four groups. One group was fed ad libitum (C) and one group was food-restricted to 60% of the intake of the C group (R). The last two groups were restricted similarly to the R group and refed either ad libitum (RAL) or similarly to the C group (pair-feeding) (RPF). Muscles samples were taken immediately after slaughter. The present study showed that the restriction/refeeding pattern had no effect on protein oxidation in the muscles studied (longissimus dorsi (LD), semitendinosus (ST) and supraspinatus (SP)). However, total antioxidant capacity decreased after food restriction (-51%, -43%, P < 0.01 for ST and LD muscles, respectively) and re-increased only after ad libitum refeeding. This alteration in the total antioxidant status can partially be explained by the similar pattern of change observed in the glutathione concentration of the muscles (-25%, P < 0.05 for ST muscle and NS for the other muscles). However, none of the concentrations of other water-soluble antioxidants studied (carnosine, anserine, glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase) were altered during compensatory growth. This study showed that an inappropriate feeding level following a nutritional stress induced alterations in the total antioxidant status (particularly that of glutathione), which may have consequences on animal health. Other consequences of a decrease of the animal antioxidant status in vivo could be an alteration of the protein oxidation processes during meat maturation.

Abstract
Most known pathways of diabetic complications involve oxidative stress. The mitochondria electron transport chain is a significant source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in insulin secretory cells, insulin peripheral sensitive cells and endothelial cells. Elevated intracellular glucose level induces tricarboxylic acid cycle electron donor overproduction and mitochondrial proton gradient increase leading to an increase in electron transporter lifetime. Subsequently, the electrons leaked combine with respiratory oxygen (O(2)) resulting in superoxide anion ((•)O(2)(-)) production. Advanced glycation end products derive ROS via interaction with their receptors. Elevated diacylglycerol and ROS activate the protein kinase C pathway which, in turn, activates NADPH oxidases. A vicious circle of pathway derived ROS installs. Pathologic pathways induced ROS are activated and persistent though glycemia returns to normal due to hyperglycemia memory. Endothelial nitric oxide synthase may produce both superoxide anion ((•)O(2)(-)) and nitric oxide (NO) leading to peroxynitrite ((•)ONOO(-)) generation. Homocysteine is also implicated in oxidative stress pathogenesis. In this paper we have highlighted the pathologic mechanisms of ROS on atherosclerosis, renal dysfunction, retina dysfunction and nerve dysfunction in type 2 diabetes. Cell oxidant stress delivery have pivotal role in cell dysfunction onset and progression of angiopathies but an early introduction of good glycemic control may protect cells more efficiently than antioxidants.

Abstract
Vascular injury and remodeling are common pathological sequelae of hypertension. Previous studies have suggested that the renin-angiotensin system acting through the type 1 angiotensin II (AT(1)) receptor promotes vascular pathology in hypertension. To study the role of AT(1) receptors in this process, we generated mice with cell-specific deletion of AT(1) receptors in vascular smooth muscle cells using Cre/Loxp technology. We crossed the SM22α-Cre transgenic mouse line expressing Cre recombinase in smooth muscle cells with a mouse line bearing a conditional allele of the Agtr1a gene (Agtr1a (flox)), encoding the major murine AT(1) receptor isoform (AT(1A)). In SM22α-Cre(+)Agtr1a (flox/flox) (SMKO) mice, AT(1A) receptors were efficiently deleted from vascular smooth muscle cells in larger vessels but not from resistance vessels such as preglomerular arterioles. Thus, vasoconstrictor responses to angiotensin II were preserved in SMKO mice. To induce hypertensive vascular remodeling, mice were continuously infused with angiotensin II for 4 weeks. During infusion of angiotensin II, blood pressures increased significantly and to a similar extent in SMKO and control mice. In control mice, there was evidence of vascular oxidative stress indicated by enhanced nitrated tyrosine residues in segments of aorta; this was significantly attenuated in SMKO mice. Despite these differences in oxidative stress, the extent of aortic medial expansion induced by angiotensin II infusion was virtually identical in both groups. Thus, vascular AT(1A) receptors promote oxidative stress in the aortic wall but are not required for remodeling in angiotensin II-dependent hypertension.

Abstract
Oxidative stress plays a central role in the pathogenesis of diverse chronic inflammatory disorders including diabetic complications, cardiovascular disease, aging, neurodegenerative disease, autoimmune disorders, and pulmonary fibrosis. Protein misfolding can lead to chronic endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress which can exacerbate oxidative stress. This can trigger apoptotic cascades resulting in chronic inflammatory disorders. Despite intense interest in origins and magnitude of oxidative stress, ability to quantify oxidants has been limited because they are short lived. We have developed quantitative mass spectrometry (MS)-based analytical strategies to analyze stable end products of protein oxidation. These molecules provide quantitative and mechanistic assessment of degree of oxidative stress in cell cultures, tissues, and biofluids of animal models of disease and human samples. Our studies support the hypothesis that unique reactive intermediates generated in localized microenvironments of vulnerable tissues promote end-organ damage. The ability to quantify these changes and assess response to therapies will be pivotal in understanding disease mechanisms and monitoring efficacy of therapy.

Abstract
This study investigated the effect of reactive carbonyl species (RCS)-trapping agents on the formation of protein carbonyls during depletion of brain glutathione (GSH). To this end, rat brain slices were incubated with the GSH-depletor diethyl maleate in the absence or presence of chemically different RCS scavengers (hydralazine, methoxylamine, aminoguanidine, pyridoxamine, carnosine, taurine and z-histidine hydrazide). Despite their strong reactivity towards the most common RCS, none of the scavengers tested, with the exception of hydralazine, prevented protein carbonylation. These findings suggest that the majority of protein-associated carbonyl groups in this oxidative stress paradigm do not derive from stable lipid peroxidation products like malondialdehyde (MDA), acrolein and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE). This conclusion was confirmed by the observation that the amount of MDA-, acrolein- and 4-HNE-protein adducts does not increase upon GSH depletion. Additional studies revealed that the efficacy of hydralazine at preventing carbonylation was due to its ability to reduce oxidative stress, most likely by inhibiting mitochondrial production of superoxide and/or by scavenging lipid free radicals.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Neuropathy is a frequent and severe complication of diabetes. Multiple metabolic defects in type 2 diabetic patients result in oxidative injury of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) neurons. Our previous work focused on hyperglycemia clearly demonstrates induction of mitochondrial oxidative stress and acute injury in DRG neurons; however, this mechanism is not the only factor that produces neuropathy in vivo. Dyslipidemia also correlates with the development of neuropathy, even in pre-diabetic patients. This study was designed to explore the contribution of dyslipidemia in neuropathy. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Mice (n = 10) were fed a control (10% kcal %fat) or high-fat (45% kcal %fat) diet to explore the impact of plasma lipids on the development of neuropathy. We also examined oxidized lipid-mediated injury in cultured DRG neurons from adult rat using oxidized LDLs (oxLDLs). RESULTS Mice on a high-fat diet have increased oxLDLs and systemic and nerve oxidative stress. They develop nerve conduction velocity (NCV) and sensory deficits prior to impaired glucose tolerance. In vitro, oxLDLs lead to severe DRG neuron oxidative stress via interaction with the receptor lectin-like oxLDL receptor (LOX)-1 and subsequent NAD(P)H oxidase activity. Oxidative stress resulting from oxLDLs and high glucose is additive. CONCLUSIONS Multiple metabolic defects in type 2 diabetes directly injure DRG neurons through different mechanisms that all result in oxidative stress. Dyslipidemia leads to high levels of oxLDLs that may injure DRG neurons via LOX-1 and contribute to the development of diabetic neuropathy.

Abstract
Fabry disease is a lysosomal storage disorder that results in an accumulation of globotriaosylceramide in vascular tissue secondary to a deficiency in alpha-galactosidase A. The glycolipid-associated vasculopathy results in strokes and cardiac disease, but the basis for these complications is poorly understood. Recent studies in the alpha-galactosidase A-knockout mouse suggested that a decrease in nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability may play a role in the abnormal thrombosis, atherogenesis, and vasorelaxation that are characteristic of these mice. To understand better the association between impaired NO bioavailability and glycolipid accumulation, we studied alpha-galactosidase A-knockout mice or primary cultures of their aortic endothelial cells. Treatment of knockout mice with a potent inhibitor of glucosylceramide synthase reversed accumulation of globotriaosylceramide but failed to normalize the defect in vasorelaxation. Basal and insulin-stimulated endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) activities in endothelial cells derived from knockout mice were lower than those observed from wild-type mice; normalization of glycolipid only partially reversed this reduction in eNOS activity. The loss of eNOS activity associated with a decrease in high molecular weight caveolin oligomers in endothelial cells and isolated caveolae, suggesting a role for glycolipids in caveolin assembly. Finally, concentrations of ortho-tyrosine and nitrotyrosine in knockout endothelial cells were markedly elevated compared with wild-type endothelial cells. These findings are consistent with a loss of NO bioavailability, associated with eNOS uncoupling, in the alpha-galactosidase A-knockout mouse.

Abstract
This study aimed to further analyse the potential role of oxidative stress in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes at clinical onset, during disease progression and when early microvascular complications ( + DC) appeared. Compared with age-matched controls, diabetic patients had greater oxidative damage to lipids, proteins and DNA demonstrated by analysis of plasma and erythrocyte malondialdehyde, carbonyl proteins and leukocyte 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine, all of which were significantly raised at onset, decreased during the first 1.5 years of evolution and rose progressively thereafter. Plasma lipid levels were significantly associated with lipid and protein oxidation products. Erythrocyte glutathione and glutathione-peroxidase activity were significantly decreased with the lowest values at onset and in + DC sub-groups. Insulin therapy in the first year improved metabolic and oxidant-antioxidant status and, consequently, hyperglycaemia-derived biomolecular oxidative damage. Diabetes-associated hyperlipidaemia is related to lipid and protein oxidation, thereby supporting the concept of glucotoxicity and lipotoxicity being inter-related. The overall increase in lipid, protein and DNA oxidative damage in diabetic patients with microangiopathy could be pathogenetically relevant in the early development of diabetes-related complications.

Abstract
Accumulation of unfolded protein within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) attenuates mRNA translation through PERK-mediated phosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 on Ser51 of the alpha subunit (eIF2alpha). To elucidate the role of eIF2alpha phosphorylation, we engineered mice for conditional expression of homozygous Ser51Ala mutant eIF2alpha. The absence of eIF2alpha phosphorylation in beta cells caused a severe diabetic phenotype due to heightened and unregulated proinsulin translation; defective intracellular trafficking of ER cargo proteins; increased oxidative damage; reduced expression of stress response and beta-cell-specific genes; and apoptosis. However, glucose intolerance and beta cell death in these mice were attenuated by a diet containing antioxidant. We conclude that phosphorylation of eIF2alpha coordinately attenuates mRNA translation, prevents oxidative stress, and optimizes ER protein folding to support insulin production. The finding that increased proinsulin synthesis causes oxidative damage in beta cells may reflect events in the beta cell failure associated with insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Oxidative damage to vascular cell membrane phospholipids causes physicochemical changes in membrane structure and lipid organization, contributing to atherogenesis. Oxidative stress combined with hyperglycemia has been shown to further increase the risk of vascular and metabolic diseases. In this study, the effects of glucose on oxidative stress-induced cholesterol domain formation were tested in model membranes containing polyunsaturated fatty acids and physiologic levels of cholesterol. Membrane structural changes, including cholesterol domain formation, were characterized by small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) analysis and correlated with spectrophotometrically-determined lipid hydroperoxide levels. Glucose treatment resulted in a concentration-dependent increase in lipid hydroperoxide formation, which correlated with the formation of highly-ordered cholesterol crystalline domains (unit cell periodicity of 34 A) as well as a decrease in overall membrane bilayer width. The effect of glucose on lipid peroxidation was further enhanced by increased levels of cholesterol. Treatment with free radical-scavenging agents inhibited the biochemical and structural effects of glucose, even at elevated cholesterol levels. These data demonstrate that glucose promotes changes in membrane organization, including cholesterol crystal formation, through lipid peroxidation.

Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of dietary supplementation with the metal chelators, trientine or citric acid, in preventing the development of cardiomyopathy in the Zucker diabetic rat. HYPOTHESIS We hypothesized that dietary chelators would attenuate metal-catalyzed oxidative stress and damage in tissues and protect against pathological changes in ventricular structure and function in type II diabetes. METHODS Animals (10 weeks old) included lean control (LC, fa/+), untreated Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF, fa/fa), and ZDF rats treated with either trientine (triethylenetetramine) or citrate at 20 mg/d in drinking water, starting when rats were frankly diabetic. Cardiac functional assessment was determined using a Millar pressure/volume catheter placed in the left ventricle at 32 weeks of age. RESULTS End diastolic volume for the ZDF animals increased by 36% indicating LV dilatation (P < .05) and was accompanied by a 30% increase in the end diastolic pressure (P <or= .05). Both trientine and citric acid prevented the increases in EDV and EDP (P < .05). Ejection fraction and myocardial relaxation were also significantly improved with chelator treatment. CONCLUSION Dietary supplementation with trientine and citric acid significantly prevented structural and functional changes in the diabetic heart, supporting the merits of mild chelators for prevention of cardiovascular disease in diabetes.

Abstract
Scavenger receptors play a central role in atherosclerosis by processing oxidized lipoproteins and mediating their cellular effects. Recent studies suggested that the atherogenic state correlates with progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD); therefore, scavenger receptors are candidate mediators of renal fibrogenesis. Here, we investigated the role of CD36, a class B scavenger receptor, in a hypercholesterolemic model of CKD. We placed CD36-deficient mice and wild-type male mice on a high-fat Western diet for 7 to 8 wk and then performed either sham or unilateral ureteral obstruction surgery. CD36-deficient mice developed significantly less fibrosis compared with wild-type mice at days 3, 7, and 14 after obstruction. Compared with wild-type mice, CD36-deficient mice had significantly more interstitial macrophages at 7 d but not at 14 d. CD36-deficient mice exhibited reduced levels of activated NF-kappaB and oxidative stress (assessed by measuring fatty acid-derived hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid and protein carbonyl content) and decreased accumulation of interstitial myofibroblasts compared with wild-type mice. These data suggest that CD36 is a key modulator of proinflammatory and oxidative pathways that promote fibrogenesis in CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preterm infants endowed with an immature antioxidant defense system are prone to oxidative stress. Hydroxyl radicals are very aggressive reactive oxygen species that lack specific antioxidants. These radicals cannot be measured directly, but oxidation byproducts of DNA or phenylalanine in urine are reliable markers of their activity. Human milk has a higher antioxidant capacity than formula. OBJECTIVE We hypothesized that oxidative stress associated with prematurity could be diminished by feeding human milk. DESIGN We recruited a cohort of stable preterm infants who lacked perinatal conditions associated with oxidative stress; were not receiving prooxidant or antioxidant drugs, vitamins, or minerals before recruitment; and were fed exclusively human milk (HM group) or preterm formula (PTF group). Collected urine was analyzed for oxidative bases of DNA [8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG)/2'-deoxyguanosine (2dG) ratio] and oxidative derivatives of phenylalanine [ortho-tyrosine (o-Tyr)/Phe ratio] by HPLC coupled to tandem mass spectrometry. Healthy term newborn infants served as control subjects. RESULTS Both preterm groups eliminated greater amounts of metabolites than did the control group. However, the PTF group eliminated significantly (P < 0.02) higher amounts of 8-oxodG (8-oxodG/2dG ratio: 10.46 +/- 3.26) than did the HM group (8-oxodG/2dG ratio: 9.05 +/- 2.19) and significantly (P < 0.01) higher amounts of o-Tyr (o-Tyr/Phe ratio: 14.90 +/- 3.75) than did the HM group (o-Tyr/Phe ratio: 12.53 +/- 3.49). When data were lumped together independently of the type of feeding received, a significant correlation was established between the 8-oxodG/2dG and o-Tyr/Phe ratios in urine, dependent on gestational age and birth weight. CONCLUSION Prematurity is associated with protracted oxidative stress, and human milk is partially protective.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is increasingly prevalent worldwide. Diabetic individuals are at markedly increased risk for premature death due to cardiovascular disease. Furthermore, substantial morbidity results from microvascular complications which include retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy. Clinical studies involving diabetic patients have suggested that degree of diabetic hyperglycemia correlates with risk of complications. Recent evidence implicates a central role for oxidative stress and vascular inflammation in all forms of insulin resistance, obesity, diabetes and its complications. Although, glucose promotes glycoxidation reactions in vitro and products of glycoxidation and lipoxidation are elevated in plasma and tissue in diabetics, the exact relationships among hyperglycemia, the diabetic state, and oxidative stress are not well-understood. Using a combination of in vitro and in vivo experiments, we have identified amino acid oxidation markers that serve as molecular fingerprints of specific oxidative pathways. Quantification of these products utilizing highly sensitive and specific gas chromatography/mass spectrometry in animal models of diabetic complications and in humans has provided insights in oxidative pathways that result in diabetic complications. Our studies strongly support the hypothesis that unique oxidants are generated in the microenvironment of tissues vulnerable to diabetic damage. Potential therapies interrupting these reactive pathways in target tissue are likely to be beneficial in preventing diabetic complications.

Abstract
Diabetic neuropathy (DN) is a common complication of diabetes. Currently, there is no drug treatment to prevent or slow the development of DN. Rosiglitazone (Rosi) is a potent insulin sensitizer and may also slow the development of DN by a mechanism independent of its effect on hyperglycemia. A two by two design was used to test the effect of Rosi treatment on the development of DN. Streptozotocin-induced diabetic DBA/2J mice were treated with Rosi. DN and oxidative stress were quantified, and gene expression was profiled using the Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 microarray platform. An informatics approach identified key regulatory elements activated by Rosi. Diabetic DBA/2J mice developed severe hyperglycemia, DN, and elevated oxidative stress. Rosi treatment did not affect hyperglycemia but did reduce oxidative stress and prevented the development of thermal hypoalgesia. Two novel transcription factor binding modules were identified that may control genes correlated to changes in DN after Rosi treatment: SP1F_ZBPF and EGRF_EGRF. These targets may be useful in designing drugs with the same efficacy as Rosi in treating DN but with fewer undesirable effects.

Abstract
PURPOSE 4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) is a major lipid peroxidation product in the retina and the retinal pigment epithelium. The purpose of the present study was to investigate how NF-E2-related factor-2 (Nrf2) and phosphatidylinositol 3 (PI3K) pathways affect the responses of cultured human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells to 4-HNE. METHODS Cultured ARPE-19 cells were treated with different concentrations of 4-HNE and a PI3K inhibitor, LY294002. Intracellular glutathione (GSH) was measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The transcriptional activity of Nrf2 was measured by dual luciferase assay after transient transfection with reporter plasmids. The mRNA level of glutamate cysteine ligase (GCL) was quantified by real-time RT-PCR. Formation of HNE adduct on heat shock cognate protein 70 (Hsc70) was measured by immunoprecipitation and Western blot analyses. RESULTS Treatment with 4-HNE increased Nrf2 activity and GSH synthesis in a dose-dependent manner in cultured RPE cells. The modulatory subunit of GCL was upregulated by 4-HNE. Antioxidant responses were largely abolished by pretreatment with LY294002. The modification of Hsc70 by 4-HNE was increased when PI3K was inhibited. CONCLUSIONS The Nrf2-dependent antioxidant response protects against 4-HNE toxicity, and this protective mechanism is dependent on the functions of the PI3K pathway.

Abstract
Recent studies suggest that thiazolidinediones ameliorate diabetic nephropathy (DN) independently of their effect on hyperglycemia. In the current study, we confirm and extend these findings by showing that rosiglitazone treatment prevented the development of DN and reversed multiple markers of oxidative injury in DBA/2J mice made diabetic by low-dose streptozotocin. These diabetic mice developed a 14.2-fold increase in albuminuria and a 53% expansion of renal glomerular extracellular matrix after 12 wk of diabetes. These changes were largely abrogated by administration of rosiglitazone beginning 2 wk after the completion of streptozotocin injections. Rosiglitazone had no effect on glycemic control. Rosiglitazone had similar effects on insulin-treated diabetic mice after 24 wk of diabetes. Podocyte loss and glomerular fibronectin accumulation, other markers of early DN, were prevented by rosiglitazone in both 12- and 24-wk diabetic models. Surprisingly, glomerular GLUT1 levels did not increase and nephrin levels did not decrease in the diabetic animals; neither changed with rosiglitazone. Plasma and kidney markers of protein oxidation and lipid peroxidation were significantly elevated in the 24-wk diabetic animals despite insulin treatment and were reduced to near-normal levels by rosiglitazone. Finally, urinary metabolites were markedly altered by diabetes. Of 1,988 metabolite features identified by electrospray ionization time of flight mass spectrometry, levels of 56 were altered more than twofold in the urine of diabetic mice. Of these, 21 were returned to normal by rosiglitazone. Thus rosiglitazone has direct effects on the renal glomerulus to reduce reactive oxygen species accumulation to prevent type 1 diabetic mice from development of DN.

Abstract
There is evidence that high-fructose diet induces insulin resistance, alterations in lipid metabolism, and oxidative stress in rat tissues. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of L-carnitine (CAR) on lipid accumulation and peroxidative damage in skeletal muscle of rats fed high-fructose diet. Fructose-fed animals (60 g/100 g diet) displayed decreased glucose/insulin (G/I) ratio and insulin sensitivity
index (ISI0,120) indicating the development of insulin resistance. Rats showed alterations in the levels of triglycerides, free fatty acids, cholesterol, and phospholipids in skeletal muscle. The condition was associated with oxidative stress as evidenced by the accumulation of lipid peroxidation products, protein carbonyls, and aldehydes along with depletion of both enzymic and nonenzymic antioxidants. Simultaneous intraperitoneal administration of CAR (300 mg/kg/day) to fructose-fed rats alleviated the effects of fructose. These rats showed near-normal levels of the parameters studied. The effects of CAR in this model suggest that CAR supplementation may have some benefits in patients suffering from insulin resistance.

Abstract
The purpose of this investigation was to determine if a single set of strenuous squat exercise would result in an acute oxidative stress, as demonstrated previously by a single sprint. Thirteen resistance trained men performed one set of 15 repetitions of barbell squats using 70% of one repetition maximum and a 30 s maximal cycle sprint on two different occasions. The total work performed was calculated for each exercise bout. Heart rate, perceived exertion, blood lactate, protein carbonyls, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine, and malondialdehyde were measured before and within 1 min following exercise. No differences were noted between the squat and sprint tests for total work, heart rate or perceived exertion. An exercise test by time interaction was evident for blood lactate with values greater following sprinting compared to squatting (P=0.0005). Postexercise protein carbonyls were not different between exercise tests but were elevated above rest (P=0.04) by 111% and 74% following sprinting and squatting, respectively, while 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine and malondialdehyde were relatively unaffected by either exercise test. These data indicate that a single bout of strenuous squatting and sprinting performed by resistance trained men results in elevated protein carbonyls, while having little impact on 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine or malondialdehyde during the immediate postexercise period.

Abstract
In response to physiologic stimuli, endothelial cells dynamically regulate arterial vascular tone by producing vasodilators and vasoconstrictors. Risk factors for atherosclerosis, such as diabetes, smoking, hypercholesterolemia, and hypertension, interfere with this response, promoting endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. This review explores whether oxidative stress might be a common feature of both endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Using biomarkers to assess endothelial function might provide insights into the pathways for oxidative stress in vascular disease. However, currently available markers of oxidative stress and endothelial function are unsuitable for routine clinical use because they are too expensive and inadequately validated. Thus, there is a need to develop and validate new markers that could be used to both measure oxidative stress and monitor therapies that specifically interrupt oxidative pathways in vascular tissue. Such markers might eventually help to identify susceptible individuals at a stage when cardiovascular complications could be prevented.

Abstract
Obesity, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes are increasingly prevalent in Western society, and they markedly increase the risk for atherosclerotic vascular disease, the major cause of death in diabetics. Although recent evidence suggests a causal role for oxidative stress in insulin resistance, diabetes, and atherosclerosis, there is considerable controversy regarding its nature, magnitude, and underlying mechanisms. Glucose promotes glycoxidation reactions in vitro, and products of glycoxidation and lipoxidation are elevated in plasma and tissue from humans suffering from diabetes, but the exact relationships between hyperglycemia and oxidative stress are poorly understood. This review focuses on molecular mechanisms of increased oxidative stress in diabetes, the relationship of oxidant production to hyperglycemia, and the potential interaction of reactive carbonyls and lipids in oxidant generation. Using highly sensitive and specific gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, molecular signatures of specific oxidation pathways were identified in tissues of diabetic humans and animals. These studies support the hypothesis that unique reactive intermediates generated in localized microenvironments of vulnerable tissues promote diabetic damage. Therapies interrupting these reactive pathways in vascular tissue might help prevent cardiovascular disease in this high-risk population.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the possible link between lipid peroxidation (LPO) and the formation of protein carbonyls (PCOs) during depletion of brain glutathione (GSH). To this end, rat brain slices were incubated with the GSH depletor diethyl maleate (DEM) in the absence or presence of classical LPO scavengers: trolox, caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). All three scavengers reduced DEM-induced lipid oxidation and protein carbonylation, suggesting that intermediates/products of the LPO pathway such as lipid hydroperoxides, 4-hydroxynonenal and/or malondialdehyde are involved in the process. Additional in vitro experiments revealed that, among these products, lipid hydroperoxides are most likely responsible for protein oxidation. Interestingly, BHT prevented the carbonylation of cytoskeletal proteins but not that of soluble proteins, suggesting the existence of different mechanisms of PCO formation during GSH depletion. In pull-down experiments, beta-actin and alpha/beta-tubulin were identified as major carbonylation targets during GSH depletion, although other cytoskeletal proteins such as neurofilament proteins and glial fibrillary acidic protein were also carbonylated. These findings may be important in the context of neurological disorders that exhibit decreased GSH levels and increased protein carbonylation such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and multiple sclerosis.

Abstract
Despite the wide interest in using modified amino acids as putative biomarkers of oxidative stress, many issues remain as to their overall reliability for early detection and diagnosis of diseases. In contrast to conventional single biomarker studies, comprehensive analysis of biomarkers offers an unbiased strategy for global assessment of modified amino acid metabolism due to reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. This review examines recent analytical techniques amenable for analysis of modified amino acids in biological samples reported during 2003-2007. Particular attention is devoted to the need for validated methods applicable to high-throughput analysis of multiple amino acid biomarkers, as well as consideration of sample pretreatment protocols on artifact formation for improved clinical relevance.

Abstract
O diabetes mellitus (DM) tipo 1 é associado a complicações crônicas micro e macrovasculares. Propusemo-nos a estudar a associação entre nefropatia (ND) e retinopatia diabéticas (RD), e destas com variáveis clínico-laboratoriais em portadores de DM tipo 1 acompanhados em um centro universitário. Realizou-se um estudo transversal através de análise de prontuários. Foram estudados 81 pacientes; a prevalência de RD foi 21,0% e de ND, 35,8%; houve associação entre ambas. Os portadores de ND e RD possuíam maior tempo de DM, maior prevalência de hipertensão, pior controle glicêmico e LDL colesterol mais elevado. A taxa de filtração glomerular (TFG) foi associada ao tempo de DM, hipertensão e albuminúria. Identificou-se menor TFG nos portadores de complicações microvasculares, principalmente naqueles com lesões avançadas. Concluímos que, em nosso estudo com portadores de DM tipo 1, houve associação entre RD, ND e TFG, sendo tempo de DM e hipertensão variáveis associadas de forma independente.

Abstract
The modification of proteins by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species plays an important role in various biologic processes involving protein activation and inactivation, protein translocation and turnover during signal transduction, stress response, proliferation, and apoptosis. Recent advances in protein and peptide separation and mass spectrometry provide increasingly sophisticated tools for the quantitative analysis of such protein modifications, which are absolutely necessary for their correlation with biologic phenomena. The present review focuses specifically on the qualitative and quantitative mass spectrometric analysis of the most common protein modifications caused by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in vivo and in vitro and details a case study on a membrane protein the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase (SERCA).

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS We determined whether oxidative damage in collagen is increased in (1) patients with diabetes; (2) patients with diabetic complications; and (3) subjects from the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT)/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications (EDIC) study, with comparison of subjects from the former standard vs intensive treatment groups 4 years after DCCT completion. SUBJECTS, MATERIALS AND METHODS We quantified the early glycation product fructose-lysine, the two AGEs N (epsilon)-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML) and pentosidine, and the oxidised amino acid methionine sulphoxide (MetSO) in skin collagen from 96 patients with type 1 diabetes (taken from three groups: DCCT/EDIC patients and clinic patients from South Carolina and Scotland) and from 78 healthy subjects. RESULTS Fructose-lysine was increased in diabetic patients (p<0.0001), both with or without complications (p<0.0001). Controlling for HbA(1c), rates of accumulation of AGEs were higher in diabetic patients than control subjects, regardless of whether the former had complications (CML and pentosidine given as log(e)[pentosidine]) or not (CML only) (all p<0.0001). MetSO (log(e)[MetSO]) also accumulated more rapidly in diabetic patients with complications than in controls (p<0.0001), but rates were similar in patients without complications and controls. For all three products, rates of accumulation with age were significantly higher in diabetic patients with complications than in those without (all p<0.0001). At 4 years after the end of the DCCT, no differences were found between the previous DCCT management groups for fructose-lysine, AGEs or MetSO. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION The findings suggest that in type 1 diabetic patients enhanced oxidative damage to collagen is associated with the presence of vascular complications.

Abstract
An excessive and sustained increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and oxidative stress have been implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases. In the present study, we have demonstrated that 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), a product of lipid peroxidation, alters glutathione (GSH) pools and induces oxidative stress in PC12 cells in culture. This increase was accompanied by alterations in subcellular ROS and glutathione (GSH) metabolisms. The GSH homeostasis was affected as both mitochondrial and extramitochondrial GSH levels, GSH peroxidase and glutathione reductase activities were inhibited and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity was increased after 4-HNE treatment. A concentration- and time-dependent increase in cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP 2E1) activity in the mitochondria and postmitochondrial supernatant was also observed. 4-HNE-induced oxidative stress also caused an increase in the expression of GSTA4-4, CYP2E1 and Hsp70 proteins in the mitochondria. Increased oxidative stress in PC12 cells initiated apoptosis as indicated by the release of mitochondrial cytochrome c, activation of poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), DNA fragmentation and decreased expression of antiapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins. Mitochondrial respiratory and redox functions also appeared to be affected markedly by 4-HNE treatment. These results suggest that HNE-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis might be associated with altered mitochondrial functions and a compromised GSH metabolism and ROS clearance.

Abstract
In vitro studies demonstrate that the hydroxyl radical converts L-phenylalanine into m-tyrosine, an unnatural isomer of L-tyrosine. Quantification of m-tyrosine has been widely used as an index of oxidative damage in tissue proteins. However, the possibility that m-tyrosine might be generated oxidatively from free L-phenylalanine that could subsequently be incorporated into proteins as an L-tyrosine analogue has received little attention. In the present study, we demonstrate that free m-tyrosine is toxic to cultured CHO (Chinese-hamster ovary) cells. We readily detected radiolabelled material in proteins isolated from CHO cells that had been incubated with m-[14C]tyrosine, suggesting that the oxygenated amino acid was taken up and incorporated into cellular proteins. m-Tyrosine was detected by co-elution with authentic material on HPLC and by tandem mass spectrometric analysis in acid hydrolysates of proteins isolated from CHO cells exposed to m-tyrosine, indicating that free m-tyrosine was incorporated intact rather than being metabolized to other products that were subsequently incorporated into proteins. Incorporation of m-tyrosine into cellular proteins was sensitive to inhibition by cycloheximide, suggesting that protein synthesis was involved. Protein synthesis using a cell-free transcription/translation system showed that m-tyrosine was incorporated into proteins in vitro by a mechanism that may involve L-phenylalanine-tRNA synthetase. Collectively, these observations indicate that m-tyrosine is toxic to cells by a pathway that may involve incorporation of the oxidized amino acid into proteins. Thus misincorporation of free oxidized amino acids during protein synthesis may represent an alternative mechanism for oxidative stress and tissue injury during aging and disease.

Abstract
Malignant brain tumors are a significant health problem in children and adults and are often unmanageable. As a metabolic disorder involving the dysregulation of glycolysis and respiration, malignant brain cancer is potentially manageable through changes in metabolic environment. A radically different approach to brain cancer management is proposed that combines metabolic control analysis with the evolutionarily conserved capacity of normal cells to survive extreme shifts in physiological environment. In contrast to malignant brain tumors that are largely dependent on glycolysis for energy, normal neurons and glia readily transition to ketone bodies (beta-hydroxybutyrate) for energy in vivo when glucose levels are reduced. The bioenergetic transition from glucose to ketone bodies metabolically targets brain tumors through integrated anti-inflammatory, anti-angiogenic, and pro-apoptotic mechanisms. The approach focuses more on the genomic flexibility of normal cells than on the genomic defects of tumor cells and is supported from recent studies in orthotopic mouse brain tumor models and in human pediatric astrocytoma treated with dietary energy restriction and the ketogenic diet.
