Ferroptosis-Specific Inhibitor Ferrostatin-1 Relieves H2O2-Induced Redox Imbalance in Primary Cardiomyocytes through the Nrf2/ARE Pathway. DISEASE MARKERS 2022; 2022:4539932. [PMID: 35242242 PMCID: PMC8888041 DOI: 10.1155/2022/4539932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2022] [Accepted: 01/27/2022] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
Objective Ischemic heart disease (IHD) has always been the focus of attention of many researchers in cardiovascular disease, and its pathogenesis is also very complicated. Ferroptosis may be involved in the occurrence and development of IHD. Methods First, primary cardiomyocytes were treated with H2O2 to simulate the IHD in vitro model. After pretreatment with different concentrations of ferrostatin-1, cell survival rate was detected by MTT method, cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL staining and flow cytometry, and the expression of oxidative stress, ferroptosis, and related molecules of Nrf2/ARE pathway was detected by Western blotting (WB) and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Results The mortality of primary cardiomyocytes in the H2O2 group was obviously increased. Ferrostatin-1 treatment can effectively inhibit cell death, improve antioxidant enzyme activity, inhibit the expression of ferroptosis-related molecules, and activate Nrf2/ARE pathway expression. Conclusion Ferroptosis-specific inhibitor ferrostatin-1 relieves H2O2-induced redox imbalance in primary cardiomyocytes through the Nrf2/ARE pathway, inhibits ferroptosis, and thereby slows cardiomyocyte death.

Role of Oxidative Stress in Reperfusion following Myocardial Ischemia and Its Treatments. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:6614009. [PMID: 34055195 PMCID: PMC8149218 DOI: 10.1155/2021/6614009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 98] [Impact Index Per Article: 32.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2020] [Revised: 02/21/2021] [Accepted: 04/29/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Myocardial ischemia is a disease with high morbidity and mortality, for which reperfusion is currently the standard intervention. However, the reperfusion may lead to further myocardial damage, known as myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI). Oxidative stress is one of the most important pathological mechanisms in reperfusion injury, which causes apoptosis, autophagy, inflammation, and some other damage in cardiomyocytes through multiple pathways, thus causing irreversible cardiomyocyte damage and cardiac dysfunction. This article reviews the pathological mechanisms of oxidative stress involved in reperfusion injury and the interventions for different pathways and targets, so as to form systematic treatments for oxidative stress-induced myocardial reperfusion injury and make up for the lack of monotherapy.

[PMID: 32143647 PMCID: PMC7059292 DOI: 10.1186/s12938-020-0759-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2019] [Accepted: 02/23/2020] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Previous in vitro studies demonstrated that suppression of microRNAs might protect cardiomyocytes and neurons against oxygen–glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R)-induced cell apoptosis. However, whether the protective effect of miR-153-inhibition on cardiomyocytes can be observed in the animal model is unknown. We aimed to address this question using a rat model of ischemia–reperfusion (I/R). Methods Rats were received the intramyocardial injection of saline or adenovirus-carrying target or control gene, and the rats were subjected to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) treatment. The effects of miR-153 on I/R-induced inflammatory response and oxidative stress in the rat model were assessed using various assays. Results We found that suppression of miR-153 decreased cleaved caspase-3 and Bcl-2-associated X (Bax) expression, and increased B cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) expression. We further confirmed that Nuclear transcription factor erythroid 2-like 2 (Nrf2) is a functional target of miR-153, and Nrf2/Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) signaling was involved in miR-153-regulated I/R-induced cardiomyocytes apoptosis. Inhibition of miR-153 reduced I/R-induced inflammatory response and oxidative stress in rat myocardium. Conclusion Suppression of miR-153 exerts a cardioprotective effect against I/R-induced injury through the regulation of Nrf2/HO-1 signaling, suggesting that targeting miR-153, Nrf2, or both may serve as promising therapeutic targets for the alleviation of I/R-induced injury.

Abstract
Liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS) demonstrated that glutathionyl hemoglobin (Hb) levels are increased in patients with diabetes, hyperlipidemia, uremia and Friedreich's ataxia. Glutathionylation of Hb is enhanced by oxidative stress. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) have also been developed for the quantification of glutathionyl Hb. Glutathionyl-lens proteins were detected in uremic patients and cataractous aged subjects. Glutathionylation of numerous enzymes is induced by oxidative stress, reduces their catalytic activities and may be involved in protection from the damaging effects of oxidative agents. Thioredoxin, glutaredoxin (thioltransferase) and protein disulfide isomerase are the key enzymes in controlling cellular oxidative stress that catalyze reduction of glutathionyl protein disulfide bonds. Thus, protein glutathionylation is closely associated with oxidative stress.

Abstract
The effect of water- and steam-cooking on the content of vitamin C, polyphenols, carotenoids, tocopherols and glucosinolates, as well as on the antioxidant activity of broccoli, are reported. Flavonoids, phenolic acids, vitamins C and E, beta-carotene, lutein, and glucosinolates in domestically processed broccoli were quantified using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods; total polyphenols were determined with Folin-Ciocalteu reagent. The antioxidant capacities of broccoli extracts were evaluated using the Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) methods. The results indicated that steam-cooking of broccoli results in an increase in polyphenols, as well as the main glucosinolates and their total content as compared with fresh broccoli, whereas cooking in water has the opposite effect. Steam-cooking of broccoli has no influence on vitamin C, whereas cooking in water significantly lowers its content. Both, water- and steam-cooking of broccoli results in an increase in beta-carotene, lutein, and alpha- and gamma-tocopherols as compared with fresh broccoli. Similar effects of steaming and water-cooking of broccoli on their antioxidant activity were observed.

Abstract
A considerable body of recent evidence suggests that oxidative stress and exaggerated production of reactive oxygen species play a major role in several aspects of inflammation and shock. Hypericum perforatum is a medicinal plant species containing many polyphenolic compounds, namely flavonoids and phenolic acids. Because polyphenolic compounds have high antioxidant potential, in this study we evaluated the effect of Hypericum perforatum extract on acute pancreatitis induced by cerulein administration in male CD mice. Intraperitoneal injection of cerulein in mice resulted in a severe, acute pancreatitis, which was characterized by edema, neutrophil infiltration, tissue hemorrhage, and cell necrosis as well as increases in the serum levels of amylase and/or lipase in comparison to sham-treated mice. The infiltration of the pancreatic tissue of these animals with neutrophils (measured as increase in myeloperoxidase activity) was associated with expression of the adhesion molecule ICAM-1. Immunohistochemical examination demonstrated a marked increase in the staining (immunoreactivity) for nitrotyrosine and poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) in the pancreas of cerulein-treated mice in comparison to sham-treated mice. In contrast, the degree of (a) pancreatic inflammation and tissue injury (histological score), (b) expression of ICAM-1, (c) the staining for nitrotyrosine and PAR, and (d) myeloperoxidase activity was markedly reduced in pancreatic tissue sections obtained from cerulein-treated mice administered Hypericum perforatum extract (30 mg/kg, suspended in 0.2 mL of saline solution, o.s.). Moreover, the treatment with Hypericum perforatum extract significantly reduced the mortality rate at 5 days after cerulein administration. Taken together, our results indicate that Hypericum perforatum extract reduces the development of acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
AIM: The generation of oxygen free radicals has been implicated in the pathogenesis of experimental pancreatitis. The aim of this study was to determine the role of oxygen free radicals in patients with acute pancreatitis.
METHODS: The plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), lipid peroxide (LPO), myeloperoxidase (MPO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were measured in 13 patients with acute pancreatitis and 14 healthy volunteers.
RESULTS: Among the patients with acute pancreatitis, there were higher plasma levels of LPO and MPO and lower SOD activity in patients with severe pancreatitis than in those with mild pancreatitis. However, there was no significant difference in the serum marker of oxidative stress no matter what the etiology was. The LPO level was especially correlated with the concentration of serum CRP and CT severity index.
CONCLUSION: The oxygen free radicals may be closely associated with inflammatory process and the severity of acute pancreatitis. Especially, the concentration of plasma LPO is a meaningful index for determining the severity of the disease.

Abstract
A method for the simultaneous determination of liposoluble vitamins in cooked meals was established. Saponification was performed with 50% (w/v) KOH at 80 degrees C, and ascorbic acid was added as antioxidant. The subsequent extraction was carried out with diethyl ether. This was followed by a liquid chromatographic separation on a reversed-phase C18 column with methanol-water (94:6, v/v as the mobile phase. Retinyl acetate was used as the internal standard. The analytical parameters linearity, detection limit (0.19 and 8.33 microg/100 g for retinol and alpha-tocopherol, respectively), precision of the method (RSD=5.24 and 6.99% for retinol and alpha-tocopherol, respectively) and recovery assays (95.6 and 96.5% for retinol and alpha-tocopherol, respectively) show that the method studied is useful for measuring these compounds in foods and cooked meals.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO), the most potent natural vasorelaxant known, has close historical ties to cardiovascular physiology, despite NO's rich physiologic chemistry as an ubiquitous, signal-transducing radical. Aspects of NO biology critical to gastrointestinal health and, consequently, nutritional status are increasingly being recognized. Attempts are underway to exploit the gastrointestinal actions of NO for therapeutic gain. Cross-talk between NO and micronutrients within and outside the gastrointestinal system affects the establishment or progression of several diseases with pressing medical needs. These concepts imply that NO biology can influence nutrition and be nutritionally modulated to affect mammalian (patho)physiology. At least four nutritional facets of NO biology are at the forefront of contemporary biomedical research: 1) NO as modulator of feeding behavior and mediator of gastrointestinal homeostasis; 2) NO supplementation as a therapeutic modality for preserving gastrointestinal health; 3) interactions among elemental micronutrients (e.g., zinc), NO, and inflammation as potential contributors to diarrheal disease; and 4) vitamin micronutrients (e.g., vitamins E and C) as protectors of NO-dependent vascular function. Discussion of extant data on these topics prompts speculation that future research will broaden NO's nutritional role as an integrative signaling molecule supporting gastrointestinal and nutritional well-being.

Abstract
Balloon angioplasty revolutionized interventional cardiology as a nonsurgical procedure to clear a diseased artery of atherosclerotic blockage. Despite its procedural reliability, angioplasty's long-term outcome can be compromised by restenosis, the recurrence of arterial blockage in response to balloon-induced vascular trauma. Restenosis constitutes an important unmet medical need whose pathogenesis has yet to be understood fully and remains to be solved therapeutically. The radical biomediator, nitric oxide (NO), is a natural modulator of several processes contributing to postangioplasty restenosis. An arterial NO deficiency has been implicated in the establishment and progression of restenosis. Efforts to address the restenosis problem have included trials evaluating a wide range of NO-based interventions for their potential to inhibit balloon-induced arterial occlusion. All types of NO-based interventions yet investigated benefit at least one aspect of balloon injury to a naive vessel in a laboratory animal without inducing significant side effects. The extent to which this positive, albeit largely descriptive, body of experimental data can be translated into the clinic remains to be determined. Further insight into the pathogenesis of restenosis and the molecular mechanisms by which NO regulates vascular homeostasis would help bridge this gap. At present, NO supplementation represents a unique and potentially powerful approach to help control restenosis, either alone or as a pharmaceutical adjunct to a vascular device.

Abstract
The effects of free radical toxicity as induced by chronic consumption of thermoxidized palm oil (TPO) diet on organ size of normal animals, their first filial offspring and malnourished rats, were studied. Tissue- and sex-specific toxicity was revealed. The TPO diet significantly (P<0.01) reduced lung and kidney mass in normal male rats but female rats remained unaffected. Hearts of first filial offspring of both male and female rats were, however, enlarged while lung, liver and kidneys of first filial female offspring were additionally reduced in size (P<0.01). This information suggests that the observed toxicities could be cumulative for female offspring. Malnutrition protected against toxic injury because none of the kwashiorkoric animals rehabilitated on the toxic diet showed any overt symptoms of toxicity.

Abstract
Antioxidant status in humans reflects the dynamic balance between the antioxidant system and prooxidants and has been suggested as a useful tool in estimating the risk of oxidative damage. This paper reviews determinants of antioxidant status such as diet including antioxidant nutrient and nonnutrient intake, absorption and bioavailability, dietary components such as polyunsaturated fatty acids and transition metals, food storage and processing, chemical form, chirality and formulation of supplemental compounds and alcohol intake; environmental factors such as pollutants, ultraviolet radiation and smoking; injury and disease, medications and other medical treatments such as radiation; strenuous exercise; and physiological stage or conditions such as those in premature babies and the elderly. It is proposed that, in addition to current focus on tissues, the antioxidant status of digesta should be considered because of its effect on specific tissues and potential health implications.
