Abstract
Hepatic microcirculatory dysfunction due to cold storage and warm reperfusion (CS+WR) injury during liver transplantation is partly mediated by oxidative stress and may lead to graft dysfunction. This is especially relevant when steatotic donors are considered. Using primary cultured liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), liver grafts from healthy and steatotic rats, and human liver samples, we aimed to characterize the effects of a new recombinant form of human manganese superoxide dismutase (rMnSOD) on hepatic CS+WR injury. After CS+WR, the liver endothelium exhibited accumulation of superoxide anion (O2-) and diminished levels of nitric oxide (NO); these detrimental effects were prevented by rMnSOD. CS+WR control and steatotic rat livers exhibited markedly deteriorated microcirculation and acute endothelial dysfunction, together with liver damage, inflammation, oxidative stress, and low NO. rMnSOD markedly blunted oxidative stress, which was associated with a global improvement in liver damage and microcirculatory derangements. The addition of rMnSOD to CS solution maintained its antioxidant capability, protecting rat and human liver tissues. In conclusion, rMnSOD represents a new and highly effective therapy to significantly upgrade liver procurement for transplantation.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE High levels of reactive oxygen species can facilitate DNA and protein damage beyond the control of endogenous antioxidants, resulting in oxidative stress. Oxidative stress then triggers inflammation, which can lead to pathological conditions. In genetically susceptible individuals, the conglomeration of oxidative stress and inflammation can enhance autoreactive immune cell activation, causing beta-cell destruction in autoimmune type 1 diabetes. As a means of shielding pancreatic islets, manganese porphyrin (MnP) oxidoreductant treatment has been tested in a number of reported studies. RECENT ADVANCES MnP affects both innate and adaptive immune cell responses, blocking nuclear factor kappa-B activation, proinflammatory cytokine secretion, and T helper 1 T-cell responses. As a result, MnP treatment protects against type 1 diabetes onset in nonobese diabetic mice and stabilizes islets for cellular transplantation. CRITICAL ISSUES MnP displays global immunosuppressive properties, exemplified by decreased cytokine production from all T-helper cell subsets. This quality may impact infection control in the setting of autoimmunity. Nonetheless, because of their cytoprotective and immunomodulatory function, MnPs should be considered as a safer alternative to other clinical immunosuppressive agents (i.e., rapamycin) for transplantation. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Although MnP likely affects only redox-sensitive targets, the mechanism behind global T-cell immunosuppression and the outcome on infection clearance will have to be elucidated. Based on the increased primary engraftment seen with MnP use, protection against primary nonfunction in porcine to human xenotransplants would likely be enhanced. Further, a better understanding of MnP oxidoreductase function may allow for its use in other chronic inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the effects of MnTE-2-PyP on some markers of antioxidant defence system in asthma mice model. MATERIAL AND METHODS The animals were divided into four groups: group 1, controls; group 2, injected with ovalbumin, group 3, treated with MnTE-2-PyP, and group 4, treated with ovalbumin and MnTE-2-PyP. The activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase and nonprotein sulfhydryl groups content (NPSH) were determined in lung homogenate. RESULTS The activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase in group 2 decreased significantly as compared to control group. The decrease of the same enzymes in group 4 was lower and significant as compared to group 2. Changes in the glutathione peroxidase activity showed a similar dynamics. The NPSH groups content decreased in group 2. In group 4 this decrease was relatively lower as compared to group 2. CONCLUSIONS The application of MnTE-2-PyP mitigated the effects of oxidative stress in asthma mice model.

Abstract
Oxidative stress, a redox imbalance between the endogenous reactive species and antioxidant systems, is common to numerous pathological conditions such as cancer, central nervous system injuries, radiation injury, diabetes etc. Therefore, compounds able to reduce oxidative stress have been actively sought for over 3 decades. Superoxide is the major species involved in oxidative stress either in its own right or through its progeny, such as ONOO⁻, H₂O₂, •OH, CO₃•⁻, and •NO₂. Hence, the very first compounds developed in the late 1970-ies were the superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimics. Thus far the most potent mimics have been the cationic meso Mn(III) N-substituted pyridylporphyrins and N,N'-disubstituted imidazolylporphyrins (MnPs), some of them with k(cat)(O₂·⁻) similar to the k(cat) of SOD enzymes. Most frequently studied are ortho isomers MnTE-2-PyP⁵⁺, MnTnHex-2-PyP⁵⁺, and MnTDE-2-ImP⁵⁺. The ability to disproportionate O₂·⁻ parallels their ability to remove the other major oxidizing species, peroxynitrite, ONOO⁻. The same structural feature that gives rise to the high k(cat)(O₂·⁻) and k(red)(ONOO⁻), allows MnPs to strongly impact the activation of the redox-sensitive transcription factors, HIF-1α, NF-κB, AP-1, and SP-1, and therefore modify the excessive inflammatory and immune responses. Coupling with cellular reductants and other redox-active endogenous proteins seems to be involved in the actions of Mn porphyrins. While hydrophilic analogues, such as MnTE-2-PyP⁵⁺ and MnTDE-2-ImP⁵⁺ are potent in numerous animal models of diseases, the lipophilic analogues, such as MnTnHex-2-PyP⁵⁺, were developed to cross blood brain barrier and target central nervous system and critical cellular compartments, mitochondria. The modification of its structure, aimed to preserve the SOD-like potency and lipophilicity, and diminish the toxicity, has presently been pursued. The pulmonary radioprotection by MnTnHex-2-PyP⁵⁺ was the first efficacy study performed successfully with non-human primates. The Phase I toxicity clinical trials were done on amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients with N,N'-diethylimidazolium analogue, MnTDE-2-ImP⁵⁺ (AEOL10150). Its aggressive development as a wide spectrum radioprotector by Aeolus Pharmaceuticals has been supported by USA Federal government. The latest generation of compounds, bearing oxygens in pyridyl substituents is presently under aggressive development for cancer and CNS injuries at Duke University and is supported by Duke Translational Research Institute, The Wallace H. Coulter Translational Partners Grant Program, Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center at Duke, and National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Metal center of cationic MnPs easily accepts and donates electrons as exemplified in the catalysis of O₂·⁻ dismutation. Thus such compounds may be equally good anti- and pro-oxidants; in either case the beneficial therapeutic effects may be observed. Moreover, while the in vivo effects may appear antioxidative, the mechanism of action of MnPs that produced such effects may be pro-oxidative; the most obvious example being the inhibition of NF-κB. The experimental data therefore teach us that we need to distinguish between the mechanism/s of action/s of MnPs and the effects we observe. A number of factors impact the type of action of MnPs leading to favorable therapeutic effects: levels of reactive species and oxygen, levels of endogenous antioxidants (enzymes and low-molecular compounds), levels of MnPs, their site of accumulation, and the mutual encounters of all of those species. The complexity of in vivo redox systems and the complex redox chemistry of MnPs challenge and motivate us to further our understanding of the physiology of the normal and diseased cell with ultimate goal to successfully treat human diseases.

Abstract
Warm hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury is a significant medical problem in many clinical conditions such as liver transplantation, hepatic surgery for tumor excision, trauma and hepatic failure after hemorrhagic shock. Partial or, mostly, total interruption of hepatic blood flow is often necessary when liver surgery is performed. This interruption of blood flow is termed "warm ischemia" and upon revascularization, when molecular oxygen is reintroduced, the organ undergoes a process called "reperfusion injury" that causes deterioration of organ function. Ischemia reperfusion results in cellular damage and tissue injury associated with a complex series of events. Pathophysiological mechanisms leading to tissue injury following ischemia-reperfusion will be discussed and therapies targeted to reduce liver damage will be summarized within this review.

Abstract
Oxidative stress has become widely viewed as an underlying condition in a number of diseases, such as ischemia-reperfusion disorders, central nervous system disorders, cardiovascular conditions, cancer, and diabetes. Thus, natural and synthetic antioxidants have been actively sought. Superoxide dismutase is a first line of defense against oxidative stress under physiological and pathological conditions. Therefore, the development of therapeutics aimed at mimicking superoxide dismutase was a natural maneuver. Metalloporphyrins, as well as Mn cyclic polyamines, Mn salen derivatives and nitroxides were all originally developed as SOD mimics. The same thermodynamic and electrostatic properties that make them potent SOD mimics may allow them to reduce other reactive species such as peroxynitrite, peroxynitrite-derived CO(3)(*-), peroxyl radical, and less efficiently H(2)O(2). By doing so SOD mimics can decrease both primary and secondary oxidative events, the latter arising from the inhibition of cellular transcriptional activity. To better judge the therapeutic potential and the advantage of one over the other type of compound, comparative studies of different classes of drugs in the same cellular and/or animal models are needed. We here provide a comprehensive overview of the chemical properties and some in vivo effects observed with various classes of compounds with a special emphasis on porphyrin-based compounds.

Abstract
The mitochondrion is the most important organelle in determining continued cell survival and cell death. Mitochondrial dysfunction leads to many human maladies, including cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative disease, and cancer. These mitochondria-related pathologies range from early infancy to senescence. The central premise of this review is that if mitochondrial abnormalities contribute to the pathological state, alleviating the mitochondrial dysfunction would contribute to attenuating the severity or progression of the disease. Therefore, this review will examine the role of mitochondria in the etiology and progression of several diseases and explore potential therapeutic benefits of targeting mitochondria in mitigating the disease processes. Indeed, recent advances in mitochondrial biology have led to selective targeting of drugs designed to modulate and manipulate mitochondrial function and genomics for therapeutic benefit. These approaches to treat mitochondrial dysfunction rationally could lead to selective protection of cells in different tissues and various disease states. However, most of these approaches are in their infancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ethanol preconditioning (EtOH-PC) refers to a phenomenon in which cerebral, intestinal, and myocardial tissues are protected from the deleterious effects of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) by prior ingestion of ethanol at low to moderate levels. Whether EtOH-PC can offer protective effects against hepatic I/R injury and whether these effects are associated with inhibition of complement activation were investigated. METHODS Male SD rats were divided into four groups, i.e., sham operation, ethanol control, IR, and ethanol-pretreatment I/R (EIR) groups. EtOH-PC was induced by gavaging rats with 40% ethanol at a dose of 5 g/kg body weight 24 h prior to experiment. Animal survival rate was compared. Liver function, hepatic MDA level, plasma complement C3 level, and serum hemolytic activity were determined. Histologic changes and complement C3 deposition in liver section were examined. Expression of liver complement 3 mRNA was analyzed by quantitative real-time -PCR. RESULTS The 14-d survival rates were remarkably higher in the EIR groups than in the corresponding IR groups when hepatic ischemia time was 110, 120, and 130 min. Serum ALT, AST, IL-1β, and liver tissue MDA were significantly lower, and histopathologic changes significantly milder in the EIR group than in the IR group (P <0.05). Compared with the IR group, both the reduction in CH50 and plasma C3 were significantly suppressed, and the staining of C3 in liver tissue significantly reduced in the EIR group. There were no significant differences of hepatic C3 mRNA among four groups. CONCLUSIONS Ethanol preconditioning reduces hepatic I/R injury, and the effect is associated with inhibition of complement activation.

Abstract
Nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB participates in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) hepatic signaling, stimulating both protective mechanisms and the generation of inflammatory cytokines. After analyzing NF-kappaB activation during increasing times of ischemia in murine I/R, we observed that the nuclear translocation of p65 paralleled Src and IkappaB tyrosine phosphorylation, which peaked after 60 minutes of ischemia. After extended ischemic periods (90 to 120 minutes) however, nuclear p65 levels were inversely correlated with the progressive induction of oxidative stress. Despite this profile of NF-kappaB activation, inflammatory genes, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin (IL)-1beta, predominantly induced by Kupffer cells, increased throughout time during ischemia (30 to 120 minutes), whereas protective NF-kappaB-dependent genes, such as manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), expressed in parenchymal cells, decreased. Consistent with this behavior, gadolinium chloride pretreatment abolished TNF/IL-1beta up-regulation during ischemia without affecting Mn-SOD levels. Interestingly, specific glutathione (GSH) up-regulation in hepatocytes by S-adenosylmethionine increased Mn-SOD expression and protected against I/R-mediated liver injury despite TNF/IL-1beta induction. Similar protection was achieved by administration of the SOD mimetic MnTBAP. In contrast, indiscriminate hepatic GSH depletion by buthionine-sulfoximine before I/R potentiated oxidative stress and decreased both nuclear p65 and Mn-SOD expression levels, increasing TNF/IL-1beta up-regulation and I/R-induced liver damage. Thus, the divergent role of NF-kappaB activation in selective liver cell populations underlies the dichotomy of NF-kappaB in hepatic I/R injury, illustrating the relevance of specifically maintaining NF-kappaB activation in parenchymal cells.

Abstract
Mn(III) tetrakis(N-ethylpyridinium-2-yl)porphyrin, MnTE-2-PyP(5+), a potent catalytic superoxide and peroxynitrite scavenger, has been beneficial in several oxidative stress-related diseases thus far examined. Pharmacokinetic studies are essential for the better assessment of the therapeutic potential of MnTE-2-PyP(5+) and similar compounds, as well as for the modulation of their bioavailability and toxicity. Despite high hydrophilicity, this drug entered mitochondria after a single 10 mg/kg intraperitoneal injection at levels high enough (5.1 muM; 2.95 ng/mg protein) to protect against superoxide/peroxynitrite damage. Utilizing the same analytical approach, which involves the reduction of MnTE-2-PyP(5+) followed by the exchange of Mn(2+) with Zn(2+) and HPLC/fluorescence detection of ZnTE-2-PyP(4+), we measured levels of MnTE-2-PyP(5+) in mouse plasma, liver, kidney, lung, heart, spleen, and brain over a period of 7 days after a single intraperitoneal injection of 10 mg/kg. Two B6C3F1 female mice per time point were used. The pharmacokinetic profile in plasma and organs was complex; thus a noncompartmental approach was utilized to calculate the area under the curve, c(max), t(max), and drug elimination half-time (t(1/2)). In terms of levels of MnTE-2-PyP(5+) found, the organs can be classified into three distinct groups: (1) high levels (kidney, liver, and spleen), (2) moderate levels (lung and heart), and (3) low levels (brain). The maximal levels in plasma, kidney, spleen, lung, and heart are reached within 45 min, whereas in the case of liver a prolonged absorption phase was observed, with the maximal concentration reached at 8 h. Moreover, accumulation of the drug in brain continued beyond the time of the experiment (7 days) and is likely to be driven by the presence of negatively charged phospholipids. For tissues other than brain, a slow elimination phase (single exponential decay, t(1/2)=60 to 135 h) was observed. The calculated pharmacokinetic parameters will be used to design optimal dosing regimens in future preclinical studies utilizing this and similar compounds.

Abstract
Ischemia and reperfusion injury is a dynamic process that involves multiple organ systems in various clinical states including transplantation, trauma, and surgery. Research into this field has identified key molecular and signaling players that mediate, modulate, or augment cellular, tissue, and organ injury during this disease process. Further elucidation of the molecular mechanisms should provide the rationale to identify much-needed novel therapeutic options to prevent or ameliorate organ damage due to ischemia and reperfusion in clinics.

Abstract
Understanding the factors that determine the ability of Mn porphyrins to scavenge reactive species is essential for tuning their in vivo efficacy. We present herein the revised structure-activity relationships accounting for the critical importance of electrostatics in the Mn porphyrin-based redox modulation systems and show that the design of effective SOD mimics (per se) based on anionic porphyrins is greatly hindered by inappropriate electrostatics. A new strategy for the beta-octabromination of the prototypical anionic Mn porphyrins Mn(III) meso-tetrakis(p-carboxylatophenyl)porphyrin ([Mn(III)TCPP](3-) or MnTBAP(3-)) and Mn(III) meso-tetrakis(p-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin ([Mn(III)TSPP](3-)), to yield the corresponding anionic analogues [Mn(III)Br(8)TCPP](3-) and [Mn(III)Br(8)TSPP](3-), respectively, is described along with characterization data, stability studies, and their ability to substitute for SOD in SOD-deficient Escherichia coli. Despite the Mn(III)/Mn(II) reduction potential of [Mn(III)Br(8)TCPP](3-) and [Mn(III)Br(8)TSPP](3-) being close to the SOD-enzyme optimum and nearly identical to that of the cationic Mn(III) meso-tetrakis(N-methylpyridinium-2-yl)porphyrin (Mn(III)TM-2-PyP(5+)), the SOD activity of both anionic brominated porphyrins ([Mn(III)Br(8)TCPP](3-), E(1/2)=+213 mV vs NHE, log k(cat)=5.07; [Mn(III)Br(8)TSPP](3-), E(1/2)=+209 mV, log k(cat)=5.56) is considerably lower than that of Mn(III)TM-2-PyP(5+) (E(1/2)=+220 mV, log k(cat)=7.79). This illustrates the impact of electrostatic guidance of O(2)(-) toward the metal center of the mimic. With low k(cat), the [Mn(III)TCPP](3-), [Mn(III)TSPP](3-), and [Mn(III)Br(8)TCPP](3-) did not rescue SOD-deficient E. coli. The striking ability of [Mn(III)Br(8)TSPP](3-) to substitute for the SOD enzymes in the E. coli model does not correlate with its log k(cat). In fact, the protectiveness of [Mn(III)Br(8)TSPP](3-) is comparable to or better than that of the potent SOD mimic Mn(III)TM-2-PyP(5+), even though the dismutation rate constant of the anionic complex is 170-fold smaller. Analyses of the medium and E. coli cell extract revealed that the major species in the [Mn(III)Br(8)TSPP](3-) system is not the Mn complex, but the free-base porphyrin [H(2)Br(8)TSPP](4-) instead. Control experiments with extracellular MnCl(2) showed the lack of E. coli protection, indicating that "free" Mn(2+) cannot enter the cell to a significant extent. We proposed herein the alternative mechanism where a labile Mn porphyrin [Mn(III)Br(8)TSPP](3-) is not an SOD mimic per se but carries Mn into the E. coli cell.

Abstract
The preventive effect of 20(S)-ginsenoside Rg(3) (20(S)-Rg(3)) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced oxidative tissue injury in rats was investigated in this study. The elevated serum nitrite/nitrate, glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, glutamic pyruvic transaminase and creatinine levels in LPS-treated control rats were significantly decreased following 15 consecutive days of 20(S)-Rg(3) administration. In addition, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance levels in the serum, liver and kidney were dose-dependently lower in 20(S)-Rg(3)-treated groups than in the LPS-treated control group. The nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) protein expressions in the liver and kidney were significantly increased by LPS treatment. However, the 20(S)-Rg(3) administrations significantly decreased these protein expressions except for HO-1 in the liver. On the other hand, in the kidney, oral administration of 20(S)-Rg(3) showed a tendency to reduce NF-kappaB and iNOS protein expressions and also significantly reduced the elevated COX-2 and HO-1 protein expressions at a dose of 10 mg/kg body weight/day. All these results suggest the preventive effect of 20(S)-Rg(3) against LPS-induced acute oxidative damage in the liver and kidney and the preventive effect of 20(S)-Rg(3) administration against LPS toxicity was thought to be more predominant in the liver than kidney.
