Abstract
Cellular quality control systems sense and mediate homeostatic responses to prevent the buildup of aberrant macromolecules, which arise from errors during biosynthesis, damage by environmental insults, or imbalances in enzymatic and metabolic activity. Lipids are structurally diverse macromolecules that have many important cellular functions, ranging from structural roles in membranes to functions as signaling and energy-storage molecules. As with other macromolecules, lipids can be damaged (e.g., oxidized), and cells require quality control systems to ensure that nonfunctional and potentially toxic lipids do not accumulate. Ferroptosis is a form of cell death that results from the failure of lipid quality control and the consequent accumulation of oxidatively damaged phospholipids. In this review, we describe a framework for lipid quality control, using ferroptosis as an illustrative example to highlight concepts related to lipid damage, membrane remodeling, and suppression or detoxification of lipid damage via preemptive and damage-repair lipid quality control pathways.

Abstract
The colonial ascidian Boytryllus schlosseri is an invasive marine chordate that thrives under conditions of anthropogenic climate change. We show that the B. schlosseri expressed proteome contains unusually high levels of proteins that are adducted with 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE). HNE represents a prominent posttranslational modification resulting from oxidative stress. Although numerous studies have assessed oxidative stress in marine organisms HNE protein modification has not previously been determined in any marine species. LC/MS proteomics was used to identify 1052 HNE adducted proteins in B. schlosseri field and laboratory populations. Adducted amino acid residues were ascertained for 1849 modified sites, of which 1195 had a maximum amino acid localization score. Most HNE modifications were at less reactive lysines (rather than more reactive cysteines). HNE prevelance on most sites was high. These observations suggest that B. schlosseri experiences and tolerates high intracellular reactive oxygen species levels, resulting in substantial lipid peroxidation. HNE adducted B. schlosseri proteins show enrichment in mitochondrial, proteostasis, and cytoskeletal functions. Based on these results we propose that redox signaling contributes to regulating energy metabolism, the blastogenic cycle, oxidative burst defenses, and cytoskeleton dynamics during B. schlosseri development and physiology. A DIA assay library was constructed to quantify HNE adduction at 72 sites across 60 proteins that represent a holistic network of functionally discernable oxidative stress bioindicators. We conclude that the vast amount of HNE protein adduction in this circumpolar tunicate is indicative of high oxidative stress tolerance contributing to its range expansion into diverse environments. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Oxidative stress results from environmental challenges that increase in frequency and severity during the Anthropocene. Oxygen radical attack causes lipid peroxidation leading to HNE production. Proteome-wide HNE adduction is highly prevalent in Botryllus schlosseri , a widely distributed, highly invasive, and economically important biofouling ascidian and the first marine species to be analyzed for proteome HNE modification. HNE adduction of specific proteins physiologically sequesters reactive oxygen species, which enhances fitness and resilience during environmental change.

Abstract
Introduction Cervical cancer (CC) is a leading cause of mortality in women around the world, with the highest incidence rate still being in developing countries. The most common aetiological factor is infection with high-risk human papilloma virus viral strains. Oxidative stress through generation of reactive oxygen species leads to lipid peroxidation and DNA damage. Studies show that reactive lipid electrophiles such as 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) produced in the process play an important role in cancer signalling pathways and are a good biomarker for oxidative stress. We aim to investigate the prognostic role of 4-HNE as a biomarker for oxidative stress in patients in early and advanced stages of CC measured by immunohistochemistry. Material and methods This is a retrospective study of 69 patients treated at our Department of Oncogynaecology. Paraffin embedded tumour tissues were immunohistochemically tested for the levels of expression of 4-HNE. The results for H-score, Allred score, and combined score were investigated for association with tumour size, lymph node status, andInternational Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics stage. Results 4-hydroxynonenal showed higher expression in more advanced stages of CC and in cases with involved lymph nodes. Tumour size was not associated with the levels of 4-HNE. Conclusions To best of our knowledge, this is the first study to use immunohistochemistry to examine the expression of 4-HNE as a prognostic factor in CC. The 3 score systems showed similar results. The pattern of 4-HNE histological appearance is dependent on the histological origin of cancer and is not universal.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation (LPO) is a complex process that, depending on the context, can either result in oxidative injury or promote redox homeostasis. LPO is a series of reactions in which polyunsaturated fatty acids are attacked by free radicals that result in the synthesis of lipid peroxides. LPO can alter membrane fluidity and operation and produce secondary products that amplify oxidative stress. LPO can activate cellular signaling pathways that promote antioxidant defense mechanisms that provide oxidative stress protection by elevating antioxidant enzyme action potentials. Enzymatic and nonenzymatic mechanisms tightly regulate LPO to prevent excessive LPO and its adverse consequences. This article emphasizes the dual nature of LPO as a mechanism that can both damage cells and regulate redox homeostasis. In addition, it also highlights the major enzymatic and nonenzymatic mechanisms that tightly regulate LPO to prevent excessive oxidative damage. More importantly, it emphasizes the importance of understanding the cellular and biochemical complexity of LPO for developing strategies targeting this process for efficient management of plant stress.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation is the driver of ferroptotic cell death. However, nonconjugated and conjugated polyunsaturated fatty acids potentiate ferroptosis differently, while some isoprenoid-derived lipids inhibit ferroptosis despite being highly oxidizable. In this perspective, we propose that different oxidation mechanisms and products contribute to the discrepancies in the lipids' potency in modulating ferroptosis. We first discuss the relative reactivities of various lipids toward two rate-determining free radical propagating mechanisms, hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) and peroxyl radical addition (PRA), and the resulting differential product profiles. We then discuss the role and regulation of lipid peroxidation in ferroptosis and the potential contributions of different oxidation products, such as truncated lipids and lipid electrophiles, from HAT and PRA mechanisms to the execution of ferroptosis. Lastly, we offer our perspective on the remaining questions to fully understand the process from lipid peroxidation to ferroptosis.

Abstract
The intricate mechanisms of oil thermooxidation and their accurate prediction have long been hampered by the combinatory nature of propagation and termination reactions involving randomly generated radicals. To unravel this complexity, we suggest a two-scale mechanistic description that connects the chemical functions (scale 1) with the molecular carriers of these functions (scale 2). Our method underscores the importance of accounting for cross-reactions between radicals in order to fully comprehend the reactivities in blends. We rigorously tested and validated the proposed two-scale scheme on binary and ternary mixtures of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs), yielding three key insights: (1) The abstraction of labile protons hinges on the carrier, defying the conventional focus on hydroperoxyl radical types. (2) Termination reactions between radicals adhere to the geometric mean law, exhibiting symmetric collision ratios. (3) The decomposition of hydroperoxides emerges as a monomolecular process above 80 °C, challenging the established combinatorial paradigm. Applicable across a wide temperature range (80 °C to 200 °C), our findings unlock the production of blends with controlled thermooxidation stability, optimizing the use of vegetable oils across applications: food science, biofuels, and lubricants.

Abstract
The one-electron reduction of lipid hydroperoxides by low-valent iron species is believed to be a driver of cellular lipid peroxidation and associated ferroptotic cell death. We investigated reactions of cholesterol 7α-OOH, the primary cholesterol autoxidation product, with Fe2+ to find that 7-ketocholesterol (7-KC, an oxidation product) is the major product under these (reducing) conditions. Mechanistic studies reveal the intervention of a 1,2-H-atom shift upon formation of the 7-alkoxyl radical to yield a ketyl radical that can be oxidized by either Fe3+ or O2 to give 7-KC, the most abundant oxysterol in vivo. We also investigated the corresponding reduction of the isomeric cholesterol 5α-OOH and again found that an oxidation product (5-hydroxycholesten-3-one) predominates under reducing conditions. An intramolecular H-atom shift (this time 1,4-) in the initially formed 5-alkoxyl radical is suggested to yield a ketyl radical that is oxidized to give the observed product. It would appear that a 1,2-H shift also accounts for the predominance of ketones over alcohols when unsaturated fatty acid hydroperoxides are exposed to iron-based reductants, which had previously been reported with hematin and demonstrated here with Fe2+. The predominance of 7-KC over the corresponding alcohol is maintained when cholesterol 7α-OOH embedded in phospholipid liposomes is treated with Fe2+ or when ferroptosis is induced in mouse embryonic fibroblasts. Our observation that 7-KC accumulates in ferroptotic cells suggests that it may be a good biomarker for ferroptosis.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation-induced oxidative stress is an important driving force for developing colitis-associated cancer (CAC). 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) is a highly reactive aldehyde derived from lipid peroxidation of ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids that contributes to colorectal carcinogenesis. Glutathione S-transferase alpha 4 (Gsta4) specifically conjugates glutathione to 4-HNE and thereby detoxifies 4-HNE. The correlation of these oxidative biomarkers with the pathological changes in CAC is, however, unclear. In this study, we investigated the expression of Gsta4 and 4-HNE adducts in azoxymethane/dextran sulfate sodium (AOM/DSS)-induced murine CAC, and analyzed the correlations of 4-HNE and Gsta4 with inflammatory cytokines and the pathological scores in the colon biopsies. Real-time quantitative PCR showed that expression of IL6, TNFα, and Gsta4 sequentially increased in colon tissues for mice treated with DSS for 1, 2, and 3 cycles, respectively. Moreover, immunohistochemical staining showed remarkably increased expression of 4-HNE adducts, Gsta4, TNFα, and IL6 in the colon biopsies after 3 cycles of DSS treatment. Correlation analysis demonstrated that 4-HNE adducts in the colon biopsies were positively correlated with Gsta4 expression. Additionally, the expression of Gsta4 and 4-HNE adducts were strongly correlated with the pathological changes of colon, as well as the expression of TNFα and IL6 in colon tissues. These results provide evidence for the association of oxidative biomarkers Gsta4 and 4-HNE with the pathological changes of CAC and may help developing novel histopathological biomarkers and prevention targets for CAC.

Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests that ferroptosis, a unique regulated cell death modality that is morphologically and mechanistically different from other forms of cell death, plays a vital role in the pathophysiological process of neurodegenerative diseases, and strokes. Accumulating evidence supports ferroptosis as a critical factor of neurodegenerative diseases and strokes, and pharmacological inhibition of ferroptosis as a therapeutic target for these diseases. In this review article, the core mechanisms of ferroptosis are overviewed and the roles of ferroptosis in neurodegenerative diseases and strokes are described. Finally, the emerging findings in treating neurodegenerative diseases and strokes through pharmacological inhibition of ferroptosis are described. This review demonstrates that pharmacological inhibition of ferroptosis by bioactive small-molecule compounds (ferroptosis inhibitors) could be effective for treatments of these diseases, and highlights a potential promising therapeutic avenue that could be used to prevent neurodegenerative diseases and strokes. This review article will shed light on developing novel therapeutic regimens by pharmacological inhibition of ferroptosis to slow down the progression of these diseases in the future.

Abstract
Sepsis is a complex clinical syndrome caused by dysfunctional host response to infection, which contributes to excess mortality and morbidity worldwide. The development of life-threatening sepsis-associated organ injury to the brain, heart, kidneys, lungs, and liver is a major concern for sepsis patients. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying sepsis-associated organ injury remain incompletely understood. Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent non-apoptotic form of cell death characterized by lipid peroxidation, is involved in sepsis and sepsis-related organ damage, including sepsis-associated encephalopathy, septic cardiomyopathy, sepsis-associated acute kidney injury, sepsis-associated acute lung injury, and sepsis-induced acute liver injury. Moreover, compounds that inhibit ferroptosis exert potential therapeutic effects in the context of sepsis-related organ damage. This review summarizes the mechanism by which ferroptosis contributes to sepsis and sepsis-related organ damage. We focus on the emerging types of therapeutic compounds that can inhibit ferroptosis and delineate their beneficial pharmacological effects for the treatment of sepsis-related organ damage. The present review highlights pharmacologically inhibiting ferroptosis as an attractive therapeutic strategy for sepsis-related organ damage.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by chronic neuroinflammation with amyloid beta-protein deposition and hyperphosphorylated tau protein. The typical clinical manifestation of AD is progressive memory impairment, and AD is considered a multifactorial disease with various etiologies (genetic factors, aging, lifestyle, etc.) and complicated pathophysiological processes. Previous research identified that neuroinflammation and typical microglial activation are significant mechanisms underlying AD, resulting in dysfunction of the nervous system and progression of the disease. Ferroptosis is a novel modality involved in this process. As an iron-dependent form of cell death, ferroptosis, characterized by iron accumulation, lipid peroxidation, and irreversible plasma membrane disruption, promotes AD by accelerating neuronal dysfunction and abnormal microglial activation. In this case, disturbances in brain iron homeostasis and neuronal ferroptosis aggravate neuroinflammation and lead to the abnormal activation of microglia. Abnormally activated microglia release various pro-inflammatory factors that aggravate the dysregulation of iron homeostasis and neuroinflammation, forming a vicious cycle. In this review, we first introduce ferroptosis, microglia, AD, and their relationship. Second, we discuss the nonnegligible role of ferroptosis in the abnormal microglial activation involved in the chronic neuroinflammation of AD to provide new ideas for the identification of potential therapeutic targets for AD.

Abstract
Epilepsy is a chronic disorder of the central nervous system characterized by recurrent unprovoked seizures resulting from excessive synchronous discharge of neurons in the brain. As one of the most common complications of many neurological diseases, epilepsy is an expensive and complex global public health issue that is often accompanied by neurobehavioral comorbidities, such as abnormalities in cognition, psychiatric status, and social-adaptive behaviors. Recurrent or prolonged seizures can result in neuronal damage and cell death; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying the epilepsy-induced damage to neurons remain unclear. Ferroptosis, a novel type of regulated cell death characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, is involved in the pathophysiological progression of epilepsy. Emerging studies have demonstrated pharmacologically inhibiting ferroptosis can mitigate neuronal damage in epilepsy. In this review, we briefly describe the core molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis and the roles they play in contributing to epilepsy, highlight emerging compounds that can inhibit ferroptosis to treat epilepsy and associated neurobehavioral comorbidities, and outline their pharmacological beneficial effects. The current review suggests inhibiting ferroptosis as a therapeutic target for epilepsy and associated neurobehavioral comorbidities.

Abstract
With rapid development of liver transplantation technology, the demand for transplants have reached beyond the supply of organs, and thus development of effective strategies to reduce cold ischemia injury in fatty liver is important. Here, we explored the potential effect of SGLT-2 inhibitor in cold ischemia injury, fatty livers from 2 weeks methionine and choline deficient diet (MCD) rats were administered. After one week of intragastric administration of Sodium-dependent glucose transporters (SGLT-2) inhibitor empagliflozin (EMPA) or NaCI, liver were stored for 24 h. The results showed that EMPA could significantly reduce the cold ischemic injury in the mitochondria of fatty liver. To explore the mechanism, signal transducers and activators of transcription 3(STAT3) inhibitor AG490 group was used in a similar manner. We detected the changes in p-signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (P-STAT3), alcohol-dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) and degree of apoptosis in three distinct groups. The results suggested that the protein expression of P-STAT3 and ALDH2 was higher in the EMPA group than in other two groups, whereas extent of apoptosis in the EMPA group was lower than other two groups. The data suggested that SGLT2 inhibitors could alleviate cold ischemia damage of mitochondria in fatty liver, which may be related to the inhibition of apoptosis and the activation of P-STAT3 and ALDH2.

Abstract
Environmental pollution sources may play a key role in the pathogenesis of nephrolithiasis, although the link between environmental aldehyde exposure and the incidence of nephrolithiasis is unclear. The researchers in this study set out to see whether adult kidney stone formation was linked to environmental aldehydes. We examined data from 10,175 adult participants over the age of 20 who took part in the 2013-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), which was a cross-sectional research. A logistic regression model was employed in this work to examine the relationship between aldehyde exposure and kidney stones, machine learning was utilized to predict the connection of different parameters with the development of kidney stones, and a subgroup analysis was performed to identify sensitive groups. After controlling for all confounding variables, the results revealed that isopentanaldehyde, benzaldehyde, and hexanaldehyde were risk factors for kidney stone formation, with odds ratio (OR) of 2.47, 1.12, and 1.17, respectively, and 95 percent confidence intervals (95% CI) of 1.15-5.34, 1.02-1.22, and 1.00-1.36. Kidney stones may be a result of long-term exposure to aldehydes, which may cause them to form. Environmental pollution-related aldehyde exposure might give a novel notion and direction for future study into the process of kidney stone production, even if the cause is yet unknown.

Abstract
Biodiesel is an important building block in renewable energy transformation. The main issue is that during storage biodiesel will undergo transformation processes that can lead to molecular changes, which then can cause applicational problems such as severe motor damage. To prevent this, a detailed understanding of the involved molecules and the emerging aging products is necessary. Biodiesel samples were stored for up to 12 months to monitor molecular changes, and all mixtures were investigated by using ultrahigh-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) with electrospray ionization (ESI). The data revealed that during storage large numbers of oxygen atoms were incorporated into the fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs). This process was dominant for the first quarter of aging but then became overshadowed by dimerization of oxygenated FAMEs. This means that there are two main pathways for aging in biodiesel: polyoxygenation and oligomerization. These findings greatly pin down the possible causes for sedimentation giving a solid foundation for aging inhibition development.

Abstract
In this study, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance was used to track the evolution of oxidation products of different multi-element oleogels (DMEOs) during temperature-accelerated oxidative degradation. The nutritional properties of the DMEOs were also indirectly explored. Oleogels prepared using sitosterol/lecithin oleogelator showed higher nutritional properties than those prepared using carnauba wax or ethyl cellulose oleogelators. Only a small amount of primary oxidation product hydroxide, (Z,E)-conjugated dienic systems, and (E,E)-conjugated dienic systems were produced from all oleogels upon accelerated oxidation. Furthermore, no 1H signal peaks of secondary oxidation products, such as aldehydes or ketones, were detected. However, very small amounts of primary alcohols (-CH2OH-), secondary alcohols (-CHOH-), and epoxides were identified. Moreover, resveratrol loading and surfactant addition effectively stabilized the internal structure and unsaturated fatty acid acyl content of the oleogels.

Pharmacological Activation Of Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 2 Protects Against Heatstroke-Induced Acute Lung Injury by Modulating Oxidative Stress and Endothelial Dysfunction. Front Immunol 2021; 12:740562. [PMID: 34764958 PMCID: PMC8576434 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.740562] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2021] [Accepted: 10/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Heatstroke (HS) can cause acute lung injury (ALI). Heat stress induces inflammation and apoptosis via reactive oxygen species (ROS) and endogenous reactive aldehydes. Endothelial dysfunction also plays a crucial role in HS-induced ALI. Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is a mitochondrial enzyme that detoxifies aldehydes such as 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) protein adducts. A single point mutation in ALDH2 at E487K (ALDH2*2) intrinsically lowers the activity of ALDH2. Alda-1, an ALDH2 activator, attenuates the formation of 4-HNE protein adducts and ROS in several disease models. We hypothesized that ALDH2 can protect against heat stress-induced vascular inflammation and the accumulation of ROS and toxic aldehydes. Homozygous ALDH2*2 knock-in (KI) mice on a C57BL/6J background and C57BL/6J mice were used for the animal experiments. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were used for the in vitro experiment. The mice were directly subjected to whole-body heating (WBH, 42°C) for 1 h at 80% relative humidity. Alda-1 (16 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally prior to WBH. The severity of ALI was assessed by analyzing the protein levels and cell counts in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, the wet/dry ratio and histology. ALDH2*2 KI mice were susceptible to HS-induced ALI in vivo. Silencing ALDH2 induced 4-HNE and ROS accumulation in HUVECs subjected to heat stress. Alda-1 attenuated the heat stress-induced activation of inflammatory pathways, senescence and apoptosis in HUVECs. The lung homogenates of mice pretreated with Alda-1 exhibited significantly elevated ALDH2 activity and decreased ROS accumulation after WBH. Alda-1 significantly decreased the WBH-induced accumulation of 4-HNE and p65 and p38 activation. Here, we demonstrated the crucial roles of ALDH2 in protecting against heat stress-induced ROS production and vascular inflammation and preserving the viability of ECs. The activation of ALDH2 by Alda-1 attenuates WBH-induced ALI in vivo.

Redox Biol 2021; 47:102143.

Abstract
The ultraviolet B radiation (UVB) causes skin inflammation, which contributes to the causality and the exacerbation of a number of cutaneous diseases. However, the mechanism of UVB-driven inflammation in the skin remains poorly understood. We show that ferroptosis, a non-apoptotic programmed cell death pathway that is promoted by an excessive phospholipid peroxidation, is activated in the epidermal keratinocytes after their exposure to UVB. The susceptibility of the keratinocytes to UVB-induced ferroptosis depends on the extent of pro-ferroptosis death signal generation and the dysregulation of the glutathione system. Inhibition of ferroptosis prevents the release of HMGB1 from the human epidermal keratinocytes, and blocks necroinflammation in the UVB-irradiated mouse skin. We show that while apoptosis and pyroptosis are also detectable in the keratinocytes after UVB exposure, ferroptosis plays a significant role in initiating UVB-induced inflammation in the skin. Our results have important implications for the prevention and the treatment of a broad range of skin diseases which are fostered by UVB-induced inflammation.

Abstract
The combined impact of an increasing demand for liver transplantation and a growing incidence of nonalcoholic liver disease has provided the impetus for the development of innovative strategies to preserve steatotic livers. A natural oxygen carrier, HEMO2life®, which contains M101 that is extracted from a marine invertebrate, has been used for static cold storage (SCS) and has shown superior results in organ preservation. A total of 36 livers were procured from obese Zucker rats and randomly divided into three groups, i.e., control, SCS-24H and SCS-24H + M101 (M101 at 1 g/L), mimicking the gold standard of organ preservation. Ex situ machine perfusion for 2 h was used to evaluate the quality of the livers. Perfusates were sampled for functional assessment, biochemical analysis and subsequent biopsies were performed for assessment of ischemia-reperfusion markers. Transaminases, GDH and lactate levels at the end of reperfusion were significantly lower in the group preserved with M101 (p < 0.05). Protection from reactive oxygen species (low MDA and higher production of NO2-NO3) and less inflammation (HMGB1) were also observed in this group (p < 0.05). Bcl-1 and caspase-3 were higher in the SCS-24H group (p < 0.05) and presented more histological damage than those preserved with HEMO2life®. These data demonstrate, for the first time, that the addition of HEMO2life® to the preservation solution significantly protects steatotic livers during SCS by decreasing reperfusion injury and improving graft function.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is a key cause of ischemic stroke and an initiator of neuronal dysfunction and death, mainly through the overproduction of peroxides and the depletion of antioxidants. Ferroptosis/oxytosis is a unique, oxidative stress-induced cell death pathway characterized by lipid peroxidation and glutathione depletion. Both oxidative stress and ferroptosis/oxytosis have common molecular pathways. This review summarizes the possible targets and the mechanisms underlying the crosstalk between oxidative stress and ferroptosis/oxytosis in ischemic stroke. This knowledge might help to further understand the pathophysiology of ischemic stroke and open new perspectives for the treatment of ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Reactive aldehydes are generated as a toxic end-product of lipid peroxidation under inflammatory oxidative stress condition which is a well-established phenomenon in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS) and its animal model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). Alda-1, a selective agonist of mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), is known to detoxify the reactive aldehydes. In this study, we investigated the effect of Alda-1 on CNS myelin pathology associated with reactive aldehydes and mitochondrial/peroxisomal dysfunctions in a mouse model of EAE. Daily treatment of EAE mice with Alda-1, starting at the peak of disease, ameliorated the clinical manifestation of disease along with the improvement of motor functions. Accordingly, Alda-1 treatment improved demyelination and neuroaxonal degeneration in EAE mice. EAE mice had increased levels of reactive aldehyde species, such as 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), malondialdehyde (MDA), and acrolein (ACL) in the spinal cords and these levels were significantly reduced in Alda-1-treated EAE mice. Furthermore, Alda-1 treatment improved the loss of mitochondrial (OXPHOS) and peroxisomal (PMP70 and catalase) proteins as well as mitochondrial/peroxisomal proliferation factors (PGC-1α and PPARs) in the spinal cords of EAE mice. Taken together, this study demonstrates the therapeutic efficacy of ALDH2-agonist Alda-1 in the abatement of EAE disease through the detoxification of reactive aldehydes, thus suggesting Alda-1 as a potential therapeutic intervention for MS.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD), one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases worldwide, has a devastating personal, familial, and societal impact. In spite of profound investment and effort, numerous clinical trials targeting amyloid-β, which is thought to have a causative role in the disease, have not yielded any clinically meaningful success to date. Iron is an essential cofactor in many physiological processes in the brain. An extensive body of work links iron dyshomeostasis with multiple aspects of the pathophysiology of AD. In particular, regional iron load appears to be a risk factor for more rapid cognitive decline. Existing iron-chelating agents have been in use for decades for other indications, and there are preliminary data that some of these could be effective in AD. Many novel iron-chelating compounds are under development, some with in vivo data showing potential Alzheimer's disease-modifying properties. This heretofore underexplored therapeutic class has considerable promise and could yield much-needed agents that slow neurodegeneration in AD.

Abstract
Cys-based redox regulation was long regarded a major adjustment mechanism of photosynthesis and metabolism in plants, but in the recent years, its scope has broadened to most fundamental processes of plant life. Drivers of the recent surge in new insights into plant redox regulation have been the availability of the genome-scale information combined with technological advances such as quantitative redox proteomics and in vivo biosensing. Several unexpected findings have started to shift paradigms of redox regulation. Here, we elaborate on a selection of recent advancements, and pinpoint emerging areas and questions of redox biology in plants. We highlight the significance of (1) proactive H2O2 generation, (2) the chloroplast as a unique redox site, (3) specificity in thioredoxin complexity, (4) how to oxidize redox switches, (5) governance principles of the redox network, (6) glutathione peroxidase-like proteins, (7) ferroptosis, (8) oxidative protein folding in the ER for phytohormonal regulation, (9) the apoplast as an unchartered redox frontier, (10) redox regulation of respiration, (11) redox transitions in seed germination and (12) the mitochondria as potential new players in reductive stress safeguarding. Our emerging understanding in plants may serve as a blueprint to scrutinize principles of reactive oxygen and Cys-based redox regulation across organisms.

Abstract
Our understanding of lipid peroxidation in biology and medicine is rapidly evolving, as it is increasingly implicated in various diseases but also recognized as a key part of normal cell function, signaling, and death (ferroptosis). Not surprisingly, the root and consequences of lipid peroxidation have garnered increasing attention from multiple disciplines in recent years. Here we "connect the dots" between the fundamental chemistry underpinning the cascade reactions of lipid peroxidation (enzymatic or free radical), the reactive nature of the products formed (lipid-derived electrophiles), and the biological targets and mechanisms associated with these products that culminate in cellular responses. We additionally bring light to the use of highly sensitive, fluorescence-based methodologies. Stemming from the foundational concepts in chemistry and biology, these methodologies enable visualizing and quantifying each reaction in the cascade in a cellular and ultimately tissue context, toward deciphering the connections between the chemistry and physiology of lipid peroxidation. The review offers a platform in which the chemistry and biomedical research communities can access a comprehensive summary of fundamental concepts regarding lipid peroxidation, experimental tools for the study of such processes, as well as the recent discoveries by leading investigators with an emphasis on significant open questions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND One of the most pervasive complications of burn injury is wound progression, characterized by continuous tissue destruction in untreated wounds, which leads to wound infection, inflammation, oxidative stress and excessive scar formation. We determined whether additional tissue destruction could be attenuated with Livionex formulation (LF) lotion, which contains a metal-chelating agent and reduces inflammation in burn wounds. METHODS We subjected male Sprague Dawley rats to a 2% total body surface area (TBSA) burn using a brass comb model and topically applied LF lotion (containing ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and methyl sulfonyl methane) to the affected area every 8 hours over 3 days. Inflammatory cytokine levels, cell apoptosis and wound healing were compared in LF lotion-treated and untreated rats. Statistical analysis was performed using a one-way analysis of variance in conjunction with Tukey's post-hoc test. RESULTS Serum inflammatory cytokines were not detectable after 3 days, suggesting that small burn wounds induce only an immediate, localized inflammatory response. Microscopy revealed that LF lotion improved burn site pathology. Deoxynucleotidyl transferase biotin-d-UTP nick-end labeling staining showed reduced cell death in the LF-treated samples. LF lotion prevented the spread of tissue damage, as seen by increased amounts of Ki-67-positive nuclei in the adjacent epidermis and hair follicles. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-6 and inducible nitric oxide synthase levels in LF-treated skin sections from burned rats were comparable to the levels observed in unburned control sections, indicating that LF lotion reduces inflammation in and around the burn site. CONCLUSIONS These results establish LF lotion as a therapeutic agent for reducing inflammatory stress, cell death and tissue destruction when applied immediately after a burn injury. Further studies of LF lotion on large TBSA burns will determine its efficacy as an emergency treatment for reducing long-term morbidity and scarring.

ATP Production Relies on Fatty Acid Oxidation Rather than Glycolysis in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12092477.

Abstract
Glycolysis is known as the main pathway for ATP production in cancer cells. However, in cancer cells, glucose deprivation for 24 h does not reduce ATP levels, whereas it does suppress lactate production. In this study, metabolic pathways were blocked to identify the main pathway of ATP production in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Blocking fatty acid oxidation (FAO) decreased ATP production by 40% in cancer cells with no effect on normal cells. The effects of calorie balanced high- or low-fat diets were tested to determine whether cancer growth is modulated by fatty acids instead of calories. A low-fat diet caused a 70% decrease in pancreatic preneoplastic lesions compared with the control, whereas a high-fat diet caused a two-fold increase in preneoplastic lesions accompanied with increase of ATP production in the Kras (G12D)/Pdx1-cre PDAC model. The present results suggest that ATP production in cancer cells is dependent on FAO rather than on glycolysis, which can be a therapeutic approach by targeting cancer energy metabolism.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is mechanism for non-apoptotic, iron-dependent, oxidative cell death that is characterized by glutathione consumption and lipid peroxides accumulation. Ferroptosis is crucially involved in neurological diseases, including neurodegeneration, stroke and neurotrauma. This review provides detailed discussions of the ferroptosis mechanisms in these neurological diseases. Moreover, it summarizes recent drugs that target ferroptosis for neurological disease treatment. Furthermore, it compares the differences and relationships among the various cell death mechanisms involved in neurological diseases. Elucidating the ferroptosis role in the brain can improve the understanding of neurological disease mechanism and provide potential prevention and treatment interventions for acute and chronic neurological diseases.

Abstract
Radical-mediated lipid oxidation and the formation of lipid hydroperoxides has been a focal point in the investigation of a number of human pathologies. Lipid peroxidation has long been linked to the inflammatory response and more recently, has been identified as the central tenet of the oxidative cell death mechanism known as ferroptosis. The formation of lipid electrophile-protein adducts has been associated with many of the disorders that involve perturbations of the cellular redox status, but the identities of adducted proteins and the effects of adduction on protein function are mostly unknown. Both cholesterol and 7-dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC), which is the immediate biosynthetic precursor to cholesterol, are oxidizable by species such as ozone and oxygen-centered free radicals. Product mixtures from radical chain processes are particularly complex, with recent studies having expanded the sets of electrophilic compounds formed. Here, we describe recent developments related to the formation of sterol-derived electrophiles and the adduction of these electrophiles to proteins. A framework for understanding sterol peroxidation mechanisms, which has significantly advanced in recent years, as well as the methods for the study of sterol electrophile-protein adduction, are presented in this review.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 protects against abdominal aortic aneurysm formation by reducing reactive oxygen species, vascular inflammation, and apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells.

Abstract
Mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is an enzyme that detoxifies aldehydes by converting them to carboxylic acids. ALDH2 deficiency is known to increase oxidative stress. Increased oxidative stress plays a pivotal role in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) pathogenesis. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) promote degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) apoptosis. Reducing oxidative stress by an ALDH2 activator could have therapeutic potential for limiting AAA development. We hypothesized that ALDH2 deficiency could increase the risk for AAA by decreasing ROS elimination and that an ALDH2 activator could provide an alternative option for AAA treatment. The National Center for Biotechnology (NCBI) Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was used. Human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) were used for the in vitro experiments. Gene-targeted ALDH2*2 KI knock-in mice on a C57BL/6J background and apolipoprotein E knockout (ApoE KO) mice were obtained. An animal model of AAA was constructed using osmotic minipumps to deliver 1000 ng/kg/min angiotensin II (AngII) for 28 days. Patients with AAA had significantly lower ALDH2 expression levels than normal subjects. ALDH2*2 KI mice were susceptible to AngII administration, exhibiting significantly increased AAA incidence rates and increased aortic diameters. Alda-1, an ALDH2 activator, reduced AngII-induced ROS production, NF-kB activation, and apoptosis in HASMCs. Alda-1 attenuated AngII-induced aneurysm formation and decreased aortic expansion in ApoE KO mice. We concluded that ALDH2 deficiency is associated with the development of AAAs in humans and a murine disease model. ALDH2 deficiency increases susceptibility to AngII-induced AAA formation by attenuating anti-ROS effects and increasing VSMC apoptosis and vascular inflammation. Alda-1 was shown to attenuate the progression of experimental AAA in a murine model.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 regulates autophagy via the Akt-mTOR pathway to mitigate renal ischemia-reperfusion injury in hypothermic machine perfusion. Life Sci 2020; 253:117705.

Abstract
AIMS Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is harmful to patients following kidney transplantation. Hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP) can be adopted to preserve grafts and reduce consequential injury. We hypothesized that aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) partly mitigates kidney IRI via regulating excessive autophagy in HMP. MATERIALS AND METHODS The rabbits were assigned to 5 groups: Normal, HMP, HMP + Alda-1, HMP + CYA and cold storage (CS). After the rabbit autologous kidney transplantation, renal pathology and function were evaluated by histological analysis, glomerular related proteins (desmin, nephrin), tubular injury factors (NGAL, Ki67), serum creatinine (Cr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN). Oxidative stress molecular Malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD2) expression, as well as inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10) were assessed by immunohistochemistry. The expression of LC3, p62, ALDH2, p-Akt, mTOR, PTEN, p-PTEN, and 4-HNE were measured by immunohistochemistry, RT-PCR, Western blot analysis or ELISA. KEY FINDINGS HMP was more effective than CS for kidney preservation, with p- ALDH2 expressed in greater quantities in HMP. The results of kidney pathology and function in HMP + Alda-1 were the best. The MDA & SOD2 and the Vyacheslav score were improved in HMP + CYA. ALDH2 reduced 4-HNE-induced oxidative stress, inflammatory infiltration, the expression of LC3, p62 and inhibited autophagy accompanied by activation of p-Akt and mTOR via p-PTEN/PTEN. SIGNIFICANCE Akt-mTOR autophagy pathway is a novel target for ALDH2 to reduce renal IRI partly by inhibition of 4-HNE in HMP, then protecting the donated kidney received after cardiac death (DCD).

Abstract
Forkhead box class O family member proteins (FoxOs) are evolutionarily conserved transcription factors for their highly conserved DNA-binding domain. In mammalian species, all the four FoxO members, FoxO1, FoxO3, FoxO4, and FoxO6, are expressed in different organs. In bone, the first three members are extensively expressed and more studied. Bone development, remodeling, and homeostasis are all regulated by multiple cell lineages, including osteoprogenitor cells, chondrocytes, osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteoclast progenitors, osteoclasts, and the intercellular signaling among these bone cells. The disordered FoxOs function in these bone cells contribute to osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, or other bone diseases. Here, we review the current literature of FoxOs for their roles in bone cells, focusing on helping researchers to develop new therapeutic approaches and prevent or treat the related bone diseases.

Abstract
Oxygen is necessary for aerobic metabolism but can cause the harmful oxidation of lipids and other macromolecules. Oxidation of cholesterol and phospholipids containing polyunsaturated fatty acyl chains can lead to lipid peroxidation, membrane damage, and cell death. Lipid hydroperoxides are key intermediates in the process of lipid peroxidation. The lipid hydroperoxidase glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) converts lipid hydroperoxides to lipid alcohols, and this process prevents the iron (Fe2+ )-dependent formation of toxic lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS). Inhibition of GPX4 function leads to lipid peroxidation and can result in the induction of ferroptosis, an iron-dependent, non-apoptotic form of cell death. This review describes the formation of reactive lipid species, the function of GPX4 in preventing oxidative lipid damage, and the link between GPX4 dysfunction, lipid oxidation, and the induction of ferroptosis.

Abstract
Despite the attractiveness of breath analysis as a non-invasive means to retrieve relevant metabolic information, its introduction into routine clinical practice remains a challenge. Among all the different analytical techniques available to interrogate exhaled breath, secondary electrospray ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry (SESI-HRMS) offers a number of advantages (e.g., real-time, yet wide, metabolome coverage) that makes it ideal for untargeted and targeted studies. However, so far, SESI-HRMS has relied mostly on lab-built prototypes, making it difficult to standardize breath sampling and subsequent analysis, hence preventing further developments such as multi-center clinical studies. To address this issue, we present here a number of new developments. In particular, we have characterized a new SESI interface featuring real-time readout of critical exhalation parameters such as CO2, exhalation flow rate, and exhaled volume. Four healthy subjects provided breath specimens over a period of 1 month to characterize the stability of the SESI-HRMS system. A first assessment of the repeatability of the system using a gas standard revealed a coefficient of variation (CV) of 2.9%. Three classes of aldehydes, namely 4-hydroxy-2-alkenals, 2-alkenals and 4-hydroxy-2,6-alkedienals―hypothesized to be markers of oxidative stress―were chosen as representative metabolites of interest to evaluate the repeatability and reproducibility of this breath analysis analytical platform. Median and interquartile ranges (IQRs) of CVs for CO2, exhalation flow rate, and exhaled volume were 3.2% (1.5%), 3.1% (1.9%), and 5.0% (4.6%), respectively. Despite the high repeatability observed for these parameters, we observed a systematic decay in the signal during repeated measurements for the shorter fatty aldehydes, which eventually reached a steady state after three/four repeated exhalations. In contrast, longer fatty aldehydes showed a steady behavior, independent of the number of repeated exhalation maneuvers. We hypothesize that this highly molecule-specific and individual-independent behavior may be explained by the fact that shorter aldehydes (with higher estimated blood-to-air partition coefficients; approaching 100) mainly get exchanged in the airways of the respiratory system, whereas the longer aldehydes (with smaller estimated blood-to-air partition coefficients; approaching 10) are thought to exchange mostly in the alveoli. Exclusion of the first three exhalations from the analysis led to a median CV (IQR) of 6.7 % (5.5 %) for the said classes of aldehydes. We found that such intra-subject variability is in general much lower than inter-subject variability (median relative differences between subjects 48.2%), suggesting that the system is suitable to capture such differences. No batch effect due to sampling date was observed, overall suggesting that the intra-subject variability measured for these series of aldehydes was biological rather than technical. High correlations found among the series of aldehydes support this notion. Finally, recommendations for breath sampling and analysis for SESI-HRMS users are provided with the aim of harmonizing procedures and improving future inter-laboratory comparisons.

Mass spectrometric discrimination of phospholipid patterns in cisplatin-resistant and -sensitive cancer cells. RAPID COMMUNICATIONS IN MASS SPECTROMETRY : RCM 2019; 33:97-106. [PMID: 30376198 DOI: 10.1002/rcm.8320] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2018] [Revised: 09/20/2018] [Accepted: 10/21/2018] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
RATIONALE Development of therapy-resistant cancer is a major problem in clinical oncology, and there is an urgent need for novel markers identifying development of the resistant phenotype. Lipidomics represents a promising approach to discriminate lipid profiles of malignant phenotype cells. Alterations in phospholipid distribution or chemical composition have been reported in various pathologies including cancer. Here we were curious whether quantitative differences in phospholipid composition between cisplatin-resistant and -sensitive model cancer cell lines could be revealed by mass spectrometric means. METHODS The phospholipid contents of cell membranes of the cancer cell lines CCRF-CEM and A2780, both responsive and resistant to cisplatin, were analyzed by solid-phase extraction (SPE) and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS)). Extracts were obtained by disruption of cells with a dounce tissue grinder set followed by centrifugation. To minimize the enzymatic activity, phospholipids were extracted from cell extracts by SPE immediately after the cell lysis and analyzed by MS. Both supernatant and pellet fractions of cell extracts were analyzed. RESULTS A phospholipid profile specific for cell lines and their phenotypes was revealed. We have documented by quantitative analysis that phosphocholines PC P-34:0, PC 34:1, PC 20:2_16:0, LPC 18:1 and LPC 16:0 PLs were present in the 200-400 μM concentration range in CCRF-CEM cisplatin-responsive cells, but absent in their cisplatin-resistant cells. Similarly, PC 34:1, LPC 18:1 and LPC 16:0 were increased in cisplatin-responsive A2780 cells, and PC 20:2_16:0 was downregulated in cisplatin-resistant A2780 cells. CONCLUSIONS In this work we showed that the ESI-MS analysis of the lipid content of the therapy-resistant and -sensitive cells can clearly distinguish the phenotypic pattern and determine the potential tumor response to cytotoxic therapy. Lipid entities revealed by mass spectrometry and associated with development of therapy resistance can thus support molecular diagnosis and provide a potential complementary cancer biomarker.

Abstract
Evidence that anti-inflammatory and other biological effects of curcumin may at least in part be mediated by its metabolites underscores the importance of identifying novel transformation products. Spontaneous degradation of curcumin in buffer pH 7.5 results mainly in dioxygenated products with a characteristic cyclopentadione ring composed of carbons 2 through 6 of the former heptadienedione chain. When analyzing degradation reactions of 4'- O-methylcurcumin, a product was identified missing one of the terminal carbons of the heptadienedione moiety while containing a cyclopentadione ring and adjacent hydroxy group typical of curcumin degradation products. Analysis of curcumin autoxidation reactions showed formation of an analogous compound, 7-norcyclopentadione, a degradation product exhibiting net loss of a carbon and gain of an oxygen atom. Removal of the carbon is proposed to occur via a peroxide-linked curcumin dimer in conjunction with radical-mediated 1,2-aryl migration of a guaiacol moiety. Oxidation reactions of demethoxycurcumin gave demethoxy-7-norcyclopentadione, whereas an analogous product was not observed from bis-demethoxycurcumin. Incubation of RAW264.7 macrophage-like cells with curcumin showed the presence of 7-norcyclopentadione, the formation of which was not increased upon activation of the cells with 12- O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate . 7-Norcyclopentadione is a novel type of degradation product that is most likely formed via autoxidative processes when cells are incubated with curcumin.

Abstract
Due to their renewable and sustainable nature, biodiesel blends boost studies predicting their stability during storage. Besides chemical degradation, biodiesel is more susceptible to biodegradation due to its raw composition. The aim of this work was to evaluate the deteriogenic potential (growth and degradation) of Pseudallescheria boydii and Meyerozyma guilliermondii in degrading pure diesel (B0), pure biodiesel (B100), and a B10 blend in mineral medium during storage. The biodeterioration susceptibility at different fuel ratios and in BH minimal mineral medium were evaluated. The biomass measurements of P. boydii during 45 days indicated higher biomass production in the B10 blend. The growth curve of M. guilliermondii showed similar growth in B10 and B100. Although there was no significant production of biosurfactant, lipase production was detected in the tributyrin agar medium of both microorganisms. The main compounds identified in the aqueous phase by GC-MS were alcohols, esters, acids, sulfur, ketones, and phenols. The results showed that P. boydii grew at the expense of fuels, degrading biodiesel esters, and diesel hydrocarbons. M. guilliermondii grew in B100 and B10; however, degradation was not detected.

Abstract
The concept of cell signaling in the context of nonenzyme-assisted protein modifications by reactive electrophilic and oxidative species, broadly known as redox signaling, is a uniquely complex topic that has been approached from numerous different and multidisciplinary angles. Our Review reflects on five aspects critical for understanding how nature harnesses these noncanonical post-translational modifications to coordinate distinct cellular activities: (1) specific players and their generation, (2) physicochemical properties, (3) mechanisms of action, (4) methods of interrogation, and (5) functional roles in health and disease. Emphasis is primarily placed on the latest progress in the field, but several aspects of classical work likely forgotten/lost are also recollected. For researchers with interests in getting into the field, our Review is anticipated to function as a primer. For the expert, we aim to stimulate thought and discussion about fundamentals of redox signaling mechanisms and nuances of specificity/selectivity and timing in this sophisticated yet fascinating arena at the crossroads of chemistry and biology.

Abstract
Institut George Lopez-1 (IGL-1) and Histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) solutions are proposed as alternatives to UW (gold standard) in liver preservation. Their composition differs in terms of the presence/absence of oncotic agents such as HES or PEG, and is decisive for graft conservation before transplantation. This is especially so when fatty (steatotic) livers are used since these grafts are more vulnerable to ischemia insult during conservation. Their composition determines the extent of the subsequent reperfusion injury after transplantation. Aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2), a mitochondrial enzyme, has been reported to play a protective role in warm ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), but its potential in fatty liver cold ischemic injury has not yet been investigated. We evaluated the relevance of ALDH2 activity in cold ischemia injury when fatty liver grafts from Zucker Obese rats were preserved in UW, HTK, and IGL-1 solutions, in order to study the mechanisms involved. ALDH2 upregulation was highest in livers preserved in IGL-1. It was accompanied by a decrease in transaminases, apoptosis (Caspase 3 and TUNEL assay), and lipoperoxidation, which was concomitant with the effective clearance of toxic aldehydes such as 4-hydroxy-nonenal. Variations in ATP levels were also determined. The results were consistent with levels of NF-E2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2), an antioxidant factor. Here we report for the first time the relevance of mitochondrial ALDH2 in fatty liver cold preservation and suggest that ALDH2 could be considered a potential therapeutic target or regulator in clinical transplantation.

Abstract
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is best known for its critical detoxifying role in liver alcohol metabolism. However, ALDH2 dysfunction is also involved in a wide range of human pathophysiological situations and is associated with complications such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, neurodegenerative diseases and aging. A growing body of research has shown that ALDH2 provides important protection against oxidative stress and the subsequent loading of toxic aldehydes such as 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal and adducts that occur in human diseases, including ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI). There is increasing evidence of its role in IRI pathophysiology in organs such as heart, brain, small intestine and kidney; however, surprisingly few studies have been carried out in the liver, where ALDH2 is found in abundance. This study reviews the role of ALDH2 in modulating the pathways involved in the pathophysiology of IRI associated with oxidative stress, autophagy and apoptosis. Special emphasis is placed on the role of ALDH2 in different organs, on therapeutic “preconditioning” strategies, and on the use of ALDH2 agonists such as Alda-1, which may become a useful therapeutic tool for preventing the deleterious effects of IRI in organ transplantation.

Abstract
This review by Conrad et al. reviews the functions and regulation of lipid peroxidation, ferroptosis, and the antioxidant network in diverse species, including humans, other mammals and vertebrates, plants, invertebrates, yeast, bacteria, and archaea, and discusses the potential evolutionary roles of lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis. Lipid peroxidation is the process by which oxygen combines with lipids to generate lipid hydroperoxides via intermediate formation of peroxyl radicals. Vitamin E and coenzyme Q10 react with peroxyl radicals to yield peroxides, and then these oxidized lipid species can be detoxified by glutathione and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) and other components of the cellular antioxidant defense network. Ferroptosis is a form of regulated nonapoptotic cell death involving overwhelming iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Here, we review the functions and regulation of lipid peroxidation, ferroptosis, and the antioxidant network in diverse species, including humans, other mammals and vertebrates, plants, invertebrates, yeast, bacteria, and archaea. We also discuss the potential evolutionary roles of lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis.

Abstract
Biofilm describes a microbially-derived sessile community in which microbial cells are firmly attached to the substratum and embedded in extracellular polymeric matrix. Microbial biofilms account for up to 80% of all bacterial and fungal infections in humans. Biofilm-associated pathogens are particularly resistant to antibiotic treatment, and thus novel antibiofilm approaches needed to be developed. Antimicrobial Photodynamic therapy (aPDT) had been recently proposed to combat clinically relevant biofilms such as dental biofilms, ventilator associated pneumonia, chronic wound infections, oral candidiasis, and chronic rhinosinusitis. aPDT uses non-toxic dyes called photosensitizers (PS), which can be excited by harmless visible light to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). aPDT is a multi-stage process including topical PS administration, light irradiation, and interaction of the excited state with ambient oxygen. Numerous in vitro and in vivo aPDT studies have demonstrated biofilm-eradication or substantial reduction. ROS are produced upon photo-activation and attack adjacent targets, including proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids present within the biofilm matrix, on the cell surface and inside the microbial cells. Damage to non-specific targets leads to the destruction of both planktonic cells and biofilms. The review aims to summarize the progress of aPDT in destroying biofilms and the mechanisms mediated by ROS. Finally, a brief section provides suggestions for future research.

Abstract
The efficacy of the curry spice compound curcumin as a natural anti-inflammatory agent is limited by its rapid reductive metabolism in vivo. A recent report described a novel synthetic derivative, 2,6-dimethyl-curcumin, with increased stability against reduction in vitro and in vivo. It is also known that curcumin is unstable at physiological pH in vitro and undergoes rapid autoxidative transformation. Since the oxidation products may contribute to the biological effects of curcumin, we tested oxidative stability of 2,6-dimethyl-curcumin in buffer (pH 7.5). The rate of degradation was similar to curcumin. The degradation products were identified as a one-carbon chain-shortened alcohol, vanillin, and two isomeric epoxides that underwent cleavage to vanillin and a corresponding hydroxylated cleavage product. 2,6-Dimethyl-curcumin was more potent than curcumin in inhibiting NF-κB activity but less potent in inhibiting expression of cyclooxygenase-2 in LPS-activated RAW264.7 cells. 2,6-Dimethyl-curcumin and some of its degradation products covalently bound to a peptide that contains the redox-sensitive cysteine of IKKβ kinase, the activating kinase upstream of NF-κB, providing a mechanism for the anti-inflammatory activity. In RAW264.7 cells vanillin, the chain-shortened alcohol, and reduced 2,6-dimethyl-curcumin were detected as major metabolites. These studies provide new insight into the oxidative transformation mechanism of curcumin and related compounds. The products resulting from oxidative transformation contribute to the anti-inflammatory activity of 2,6-dimethyl-curcumin in addition to its enhanced resistance against enzymatic reduction.

Abstract
Soil contamination with metals is a widespread problem posing risks to humans and ecosystems. Metal contaminated soils often hold poor microbial density and biodiversity. Among soil bacteria, rhizobia have a great agronomic and environmental significance and are major contributors to a sustainable maintenance of soil fertility. This group of microorganisms are severely affected by metals, such as cadmium (Cd), but information about metal resistance mechanisms in rhizobia is still limited. A concerted approach of the different mechanisms conferring Cd tolerance to rhizobia was conducted using two Rhizobium strains with contrasting tolerances to Cd. Results show that both strains resort to the same mechanisms (extracellular immobilization, periplasmic allocation, cytoplasmic sequestration and biotransformation of toxic products) to overcome stress, but differences in the efficiencies of some mechanisms were noticed. The ability of Rhizobium to increase glutathione in the presence of Cd emerges as a central factor in the tolerance to Cd and is as a feature to be looked for when screening or transforming microorganisms to integrate plant-microbe consortia. These could promote plant growth at contaminated sites, being more efficient for the cleanup of metals from contaminated sites and the restoration of soil quality.

Development and validation of an ultra high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry method using selective derivatisation, for the quantification of two reactive aldehydes produced by lipid peroxidation, HNE (4-hydroxy-2(E)-nonenal) and HHE (4-hydroxy-2(E)-hexenal) in faecal water. J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci 2018; 1083:171-179.

Abstract
Red or processed meat rich diets have been shown to be associated with an elevated risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). One major hypothesis involves dietary heme iron which induces lipid peroxidation. The quantification of the resulting reactive aldehydes (e.g. HNE and HHE) in the colon lumen is therefore of great concern since these compounds are known for their cytotoxic and genotoxic properties. UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS method has been developed and validated for HNE and HHE quantification in rat faeces. Samples were derivatised using a brominated reagent (BBHA) in presence of pre-synthesized deuterated internal standards (HNE-d11/HHE-d5), extracted by solid phase extraction, and then analysed by LC-positive ESI-MS/MS (MRM) on a TSQ Vantage mass spectrometer. The use of BBHA allowed the efficient stabilisation of the unstable and reactive hydroxy-alkenals HNE and HHE. The MRM method allowed selective detection of HNE and HHE on the basis of characteristic transitions monitored from both the 79 and 81 bromine isotopic peaks. This method was validated according to the European Medicines Agency (EMEA) guidelines, by determining selectivity, sensitivity, linearity, carry-over effect, recovery, matrix effect, repeatability, trueness and intermediate precision. The performance of the method enabled the quantification of HNE and HHE in concentrations 0.10-0.15 μM in faecal water. Results are presented on the application to the quantification of HNE and HHE in different faecal waters obtained from faeces of rats fed diets with various fatty acid compositions thus corresponding to different pro-oxidative features.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) and subsequent progressive heart failure pathology is the major cause of death worldwide; however, the mechanism of this pathology remains unclear. The present work aimed at testing the hypothesis whether the inflammatory response is superimposed with the formation of bioactive lipid resolving molecules at the site of the injured myocardium in acute heart failure pathology post-MI. In this view, we used a robust permanent coronary ligation model to induce MI, leading to decreased contractility index with marked wall thinning and necrosis of the infarcted left ventricle. Then, we applied mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) in positive and negative ionization modes to characterize the spatial distribution of left ventricle lipids in the infarcted myocardium post-MI. After micro-extraction, liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry was used to confirm the structures of the imaged lipids. Statistical tools such as principal component analysis were used to establish a comprehensive visualization of lipid profile changes in MI and no-MI hearts. Resolving bioactive molecules such as resolvin (Rv) D1, RvD5, RvE3, 17-HDHA, LXA4, and 18-HEPE were detected in negative ion mode MSI, whereas phosphatidyl cholines (PC) and oxidized derivatives thereof were detected in positive ion mode. MSI-based analysis demonstrated a significant increase in resolvin bioactive lipids with comprehensive lipid remodeling at the site of infarction. These results clearly indicate that infarcted myocardium is the primary location of inflammation-resolution pathomechanics which is critical for resolution of inflammation and heart failure pathophysiology.
