Lee DY, Song MY, Kim EH. Role of Oxidative Stress and Nrf2/KEAP1 Signaling in Colorectal Cancer: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Perspectives with Phytochemicals. Antioxidants (Basel) 2021; 10:743. [PMID: 34067204 PMCID: PMC8151932 DOI: 10.3390/antiox10050743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2021] [Revised: 05/01/2021] [Accepted: 05/04/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Colorectal cancer still has a high incidence and mortality rate, according to a report from the American Cancer Society. Colorectal cancer has a high prevalence in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Oxidative stress, including reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation, has been known to cause inflammatory diseases and malignant disorders. In particular, the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/Kelch-like ECH-related protein 1 (KEAP1) pathway is well known to protect cells from oxidative stress and inflammation. Nrf2 was first found in the homolog of the hematopoietic transcription factor p45 NF-E2, and the transcription factor Nrf2 is a member of the Cap 'N' Collar family. KEAP1 is well known as a negative regulator that rapidly degrades Nrf2 through the proteasome system. A range of evidence has shown that consumption of phytochemicals has a preventive or inhibitory effect on cancer progression or proliferation, depending on the stage of colorectal cancer. Therefore, the discovery of phytochemicals regulating the Nrf2/KEAP1 axis and verification of their efficacy have attracted scientific attention. In this review, we summarize the role of oxidative stress and the Nrf2/KEAP1 signaling pathway in colorectal cancer, and the possible utility of phytochemicals with respect to the regulation of the Nrf2/KEAP1 axis in colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Many short-lived and highly reactive oxygen species, such as superoxide anion (O2-) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), are toxic or can create oxidative stress in cells, a response involved in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases depending on their concentration, location, and cellular conditions. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities as an endogenous and exogenous cell defense mechanism include the potential use in treating various diseases, improving the potential use in treating various diseases, and improving food-stuffs preparation dietary supplements human nutrition. Published work indicates that SOD regulates oxidative stress, lipid metabolism, inflammation, and oxidation in cells. It can prevent lipid peroxidation, the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein in macrophages, lipid droplets' formation, and the adhesion of inflammatory cells into endothelial monolayers. It also expresses antioxidant effects in numerous cancer-related processes. Additionally, different forms of SOD may also augment food processing and pharmaceutical applications, exhibit anticancer, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects, and prevent arterial problems by protecting the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells. Many investigations in this review have reported the therapeutic ability and physiological importance of SOD. Because of their antioxidative effects, SODs are of great potential in the medicinal, cosmetic, food, farming and chemical industries. This review discusses the findings of human and animal studies that support the advantages of SOD enzyme regulations to reduce the formation of oxidative stress in various ways.

Annona senegalensis extract demonstrates anticancer properties in N-diethylnitrosamine-induced hepatocellular carcinoma in male Wistar rats. Biomed Pharmacother 2020; 131:110786. [PMID: 33152944 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2020.110786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2020] [Revised: 09/14/2020] [Accepted: 09/17/2020] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common and leading cancer around the globe. This study investigated the anticancer properties of extract of Annona senegalensis in N-diethylnitrosamine (DEN) - induced hepatocellular carcinoma in male Wistar rats. METHODS Rats were simultaneously induced with a combination of 100 mg/kg b.wt of DEN and 0.5 mL/kg of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) intraperitoneally once a week for three weeks in a row. Thereafter, animals were treated with 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg b.wt of A. senegalensis extract daily for 21days. Analysis using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was carried out to discover the phytoconstituents contained in the n-hexane extract of A. senegelensis. The levels of liver function parameters and antioxidant enzyme activities were determined via spectrophotometric analysis. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction technique was used to assess the gene expression patterns of BCL-2, P53, P21, IL-6, FNTA, VEGF, HIF, AFP, XIAP, and EGFR mRNAs. RESULTS Treatment of DEN-induced hepatocellular carcinoma Wistar rats with the extract caused significant (p < 0.05) decrease in the activities of ALT and AST. It also resulted in a reduction of the concentration of MDA and a significant increase (p < 0.05) in SOD and GSH activities. IL-6, BCL-2, VEGF, EGFR, XIAP, FNTA, and P21 mRNAs expressions were significantly (p < 0.05) downregulated after treatment. Histopathological analysis revealed that the extract improved the liver architecture. CONCLUSION A. senegelensis n-hexane extract demonstrates its anticancer properties by improving the liver architecture, increasing the antioxidant defense systems, downregulating the pro-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, angiogenic, alpha-fetoprotein and farnesyl transferase mRNAs expression and hitherto up-regulate the expression of tumor suppressor (P21 and P53) mRNAs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have investigated the relationship between manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) Val16Ala polymorphism and prostate cancer susceptibility, but the results have remained controversial. This meta-analysis was therefore performed to clarify this association. METHODS The databases PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were searched for relevant available studies. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to evaluate the strength of the association. Publication bias was estimated using Begg's funnel plots and Egger's regression test. Trial sequential analysis was used to reduce the risk of type I error and estimate whether the evidence of the results was sufficient. RESULTS Overall, a significant increased risk of prostate cancer was associated with MnSOD Val16Ala polymorphism for the heterozygote model (OR = 1.14; 95% CI, 1.05-1.24), homozygote model (OR = 1.18; 95% CI, 1.02-1.36), dominant model (OR = 1.24; 95% CI, 1.07-1.44) and recessive model (OR = 1.10; 95% CI, 0.96-1.24). In the subgroup analysis by genotyping method, the results were statistically significant for the TaqMan and PCR-RFLP methods. In addition, when stratified by sample size, statistically significant increased risks were found among both large samples and small samples. Furthermore, when stratified by source of control, significant results were detected in both population-based controls and hospital-based controls. By trial sequential analyses, these findings in the current study were shown to be based on sufficient evidence. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis indicated that the Ala allele of the MnSOD gene polymorphism increases prostate cancer susceptibility.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES As a parenchymal cell, the photoreceptor is more susceptible to alterations in outer micro-environmental conditions than other cells. In the present study, we aimed to investigate inhibitory effects of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles on expression of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) in murine photoreceptor-derived cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS We investigated effects of ZnO nanoparticles on murine photoreceptor cell viability and on expression and activity of MnSOD using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, immunofluorescence analysis, flow cytometry, quantitative real-time PCR and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS ZnO nanoparticles were found to have higher cytotoxic effects in concentration- and time-dependent manners, to elevate intracellular levels of hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radicals, and thus to induce overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and collapse of mitochondrial membrane potential, leading to cell damage. Moreover, ZnO nanoparticles also significantly reduced expression of MnSOD at both the mRNA and protein levels, reduced its activity, and further aggravated oxidative stress-mediated cell damage. CONCLUSION Overall, ZnO nanoparticle-induced cytotoxicity was associated with elevated levels of oxidative stress due to overproduction of ROS and reduced expression and activity of MnSOD.

Abstract
AIMS Although earlier reports highlighted a tumor suppressor role for manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), recent evidence indicates increased expression in a variety of human cancers including aggressive breast carcinoma. In the present article, we hypothesized that MnSOD expression is significantly amplified in the aggressive breast carcinoma basal subtype, and targeting MnSOD could be an attractive strategy for enhancing chemosensitivity of this highly aggressive breast cancer subtype. RESULTS Using MDA-MB-231 and BT549 as a model of basal breast cancer cell lines, we show that knockdown of MnSOD decreased the colony-forming ability and sensitized the cells to drug-induced cell death, while drug resistance was associated with increased MnSOD expression. In an attempt to develop a clinically relevant approach to down-regulate MnSOD expression in patients with basal breast carcinoma, we employed activation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) to repress MnSOD expression; PPARγ activation significantly reduced MnSOD expression, increased chemosensitivity, and inhibited tumor growth. Moreover, as a proof of concept for the clinical use of PPARγ agonists to decrease MnSOD expression, biopsies derived from breast cancer patients who had received synthetic PPARγ ligands as anti-diabetic therapy had significantly reduced MnSOD expression. Finally, we provide evidence to implicate peroxynitrite as the mechanism involved in the increased sensitivity to chemotherapy induced by MnSOD repression. INNOVATION AND CONCLUSION These data provide evidence to link increased MnSOD expression with the aggressive basal breast cancer, and underscore the judicious use of PPARγ ligands for specifically down-regulating MnSOD to increase the chemosensitivity of this subtype of breast carcinoma.

Abstract
Altered expression or function of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) has been shown to be associated with cancer risk but assessment of gene polymorphisms has resulted in inconclusive data. Here a search of published data was made and 22 studies were recruited, covering 20,025 case and control subjects, for meta- analyses of the association of MnSOD polymorphisms with the risk of prostate, esophageal, and lung cancers. The data on 12 studies of prostate cancer (including 4,182 cases and 6,885 controls) showed a statistically significant association with the risk of development in co-dominant models and dominant models, but not in the recessive model. Subgroup analysis showed there was no statistically significant association of MnSOD polymorphisms with aggressive or nonaggressive prostate cancer in different genetic models. In addition, the data on four studies of esophageal cancer containing 620 cases and 909 controls showed a statistically significant association between MnSOD polymorphisms and risk in all comparison models. In contrast, the data on six studies of lung cancer with 3,375 cases and 4,050 controls showed that MnSOD polymorphisms were significantly associated with the decreased risk of lung cancer in the homozygote and dominant models, but not the heterozygote model. A subgroup analysis of the combination of MnSOD polymorphisms with tobacco smokers did not show any significant association with lung cancer risk, histological type, or clinical stage of lung cancer. The data from the current study indicated that the Ala allele MnSOD polymorphism is associated with increased risk of prostate and esophageal cancers, but with decreased risk of lung cancer. The underlying molecular mechanisms warrant further investigation.

Abstract
Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) catalyzes superoxide radical (O2 (-)) into hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which is further catalyzed by the combined action of glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and catalase (CAT) into water and oxygen. MnSOD plays a role in cell protection from superoxide damage. This study aimed to investigate the effects of MnSOD on regulation of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma cell growth, apoptosis, and cell cycle distribution in vitro and tumor formation and growth in nude mouse xenografts. The data showed that differential levels of MnSOD expression had different effects on tumor cell proliferation, apoptosis, plating efficiency (PE), and cell cycle distribution in vitro and tumor formation and growth in nude mice. In particular, high levels of MnSOD expression promoted TE-1 cell growth and PE rate in vitro and in nude mice, whereas moderate MnSOD expression suppressed tumor cell growth and PE rate but induced more cell apoptosis. Thus, these data demonstrated the dual effects of MnSOD protein in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and further study will confirm these current data.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) has been reported to afford protection against neurodegenerative disorders in humans and experimental animals, yet little study elucidates whether it works in glaucomatous optic neuropathy. OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate whether ALA possesses neuroprotection against hydrostatic pressure-induced damage and explore its possible protective mechanism in cultured retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in vitro. METHODS RGC-5 cells were differentiated using staurosporine and pre-treated with different concentrations of ALA, then subjected to 50mm Hg hydrostatic pressure for 6h. After elevated hydrostatic pressure, cell viability was measured using MTT assay and apoptosis was evaluated using flow cytometry with Annexin V/PI staining. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) changes were determined by flow cytometry based on 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA). The expression of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) was measured via quantitative real-time PCR and Western blotting analysis. RESULTS Increases of apoptotic rate and ROS production were observed in pressure-treated RGC-5 cells compared to normal control cells. In contrast, pretreatment of ALA significantly reduced the production of ROS, increased the expression of MnSOD and prevented apoptosis in pressure-treated RGC-5 cells. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that there are protective effects of ALA against elevated hydrostatic pressure-induced damage in RGC-5 cells, indicating ALA might be a potential therapeutic agent for glaucomatous optic neuropathy.

Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 is downregulated during early skin tumorigenesis which can be inhibited by overexpression of manganese superoxide dismutase. Cancer Sci 2012; 103:1429-33.

Abstract
Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1), a cytosolic enzyme that converts isocitrate to alpha-ketoglutarate, has been shown to be dysregulated during tumorigenesis. However, at what stage of cancer development IDH1 is dysregulated and how IDH1 may affect cell transformation and tumor promotion during early stages of cancer development are unclear. We used a skin cell transformation model and mouse skin epidermal tissues to study the role of IDH1 in early skin tumorigenesis. Our studies demonstrate that both the tumor promoter TPA and UVC irradiation decreased expression and activity levels of IDH1, not IDH2, in the tumor promotable JB6 P+ cell model. Skin epidermal tissues treated with dimethylbenz[α]anthracene/TPA also showed decreases in IDH1 expression and activity. In non-promotable JB6 P-cells, IDH1 was upregulated upon TPA treatment, whereas IDH2 was maintained at similar levels with TPA treatment. Interestingly, IDH1 knockdown enhanced, whereas IDH1 overexpression suppressed, TPA-induced cell transformation. Finally, manganese superoxide dismutase overexpression suppressed tumor promoter induced decreases in IDH1 expression and mitochondrial respiration, while intracellular alpha-ketoglutarate levels were unchanged. These results suggest that decreased IDH1 expression in early stage skin tumorigenesis is highly correlated with tumor promotion. In addition, oxidative stress might contribute to IDH1 inactivation, because manganese superoxide dismutase, a mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme, blocked decreases in IDH1 expression and activity.

Abstract
This study investigated the cytoprotective effect of baicalein (5,6,7-trihydroxyflavone) against oxidative stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrometry revealed that baicalein showed significant scavenging effects on superoxide radicals and hydroxyl radicals. When H(2)O(2) treatment induces an increase in mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS), baicalein treatment decreased high level of ROS. Baicalein significantly reduced alteration of Bcl-2 family proteins, the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria into the cytosol via inhibition of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase-4 (MKK4/SEK1) and c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) cascades induced by H(2)O(2) treatment. Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) is an important antioxidant enzyme in mitochondria against oxidative stress. Baicalein restored both MnSOD protein expression and activity, which were abolished by H(2)O(2) treatment. The transcription factor NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a critical regulator of MnSOD, achieved by binding to the antioxidant response element (ARE). Baicalein restored nuclear Nrf2 protein expression and its ARE binding activity, which were abolished by H(2)O(2) treatment. These studies demonstrate that baicalein attenuates mitochondrial oxidative stress by activating Nrf2-mediated MnSOD induction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Activation of PPARs has been reported to inhibit the proliferation of malignant cells from different lineages. They are involved in transcription regulation of genes upon activation by a ligand. The binding of PPARs to the promoter sequence either represses or activates the gene. Hence, PPARs represent promising targets for cancer treatment because of their anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic activities. Here we computationally identified PPAR binding regions in NHE1 and MnSOD. We further validated the predictions in vitro. RESULTS Our results computationally predicted the presence of 2 PPRE motifs in NHE1 and 3 PPRE motifs in MnSOD. We experimentally confirmed the true motifs and their regulation by PPAR. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that both NHE1 and MnSOD have PPRE binding motif in their upstream/promoter region and hence are regulated by PPAR upon ligand binding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) gene encodes an antioxidant enzyme (SOD2) that may protect cells from oxidative damage. The MnSOD allele with Val as amino acid 16 encodes a protein that has 30-40% lower activity compared with the MnSOD Ala variant, hence possibly increasing susceptibility to oxidative stress. On the other hand, some epidemiologic studies suggest that the Ala allele is associated with a higher risk of cancer, including prostate cancer. METHODS We conducted a nested case-control study in the Health Professionals Follow-up Study with 612 incident prostate cancer cases and 612 matched controls to investigate the role of the MnSOD gene Ala16Val polymorphism and its joint association with plasma carotenoid concentrations in relation to risk of total prostate cancer and aggressive prostate cancer (advanced stage or Gleason sum > or =7). RESULTS The allele frequencies in the controls were 49.8% for Ala and 50.2% for Val. No association was found between the MnSOD genotype and risk of total and aggressive prostate cancer. Furthermore, no statistically significant interaction was observed between the MnSOD genotype and any of the plasma carotenoids in relation to risk of total and aggressive prostate cancer. In analyses in which we combined data from plasma and dietary carotenoids and created a quintile score to reflect long-term carotenoid status, a 3-fold [95% confidence interval: 1.37-7.02] increased risk of aggressive prostate cancer was observed among men with the Ala/Ala genotype in the presence of low long-term lycopene status (P-value, test for interaction = 0.02) as compared with men with the Ala/Val+Val/Val genotypes with low long-term lycopene status. CONCLUSION In this cohort of mainly white men, the MnSOD gene Ala16Val polymorphism was not associated with total or aggressive prostate cancer risk. However, men with the MnSOD Ala/Ala genotype who had low long-term lycopene status had a higher risk of aggressive prostate cancer compared with individuals with the other genotypes. These results are consistent with findings from earlier studies that reported when antioxidant status is low, the MnSOD Ala/Ala genotype may be associated with an increased risk of aggressive prostate cancer.

Abstract
In recent years, cellular redox environment gained significant attention as a critical regulator of cellular responses to oxidative stress. Cellular redox environment is a balance between production of reactive oxygen species and their removal by antioxidant enzymes. We investigated the hypothesis that mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme activity regulates radioresistance in human pancreatic cancer cells. Vector-control and manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) overexpressing human pancreatic cancer cells were irradiated and assayed for cell survival and activation of the G(2)-checkpoint pathway. Increased MnSOD activity significantly increased cell survival following irradiation with 6 Gy of gamma-radiation (p < 0.05). The MnSOD overexpressing irradiated cells also revealed 3-4 folds increase in the percentage of G(2) cells compared to irradiated vector-control. Furthermore, MnSOD overexpressing irradiated cells exhibited increased loss of phosphorylated histone H2AX protein levels. The radiation-induced increase in cyclin B1 protein levels in irradiated vector-control cells was suppressed in irradiated MnSOD overexpressing cells. Mitochondria-targeted catalase overexpression increased the survival of irradiated cells. These results support the hypothesis that mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme activity and mitochondria-generated reactive oxygen species-signaling (superoxide and hydrogen peroxide) could regulate radiation-induced G(2) checkpoint activation and radioresistance in human pancreatic cancer cells.

Abstract
The phytochemical resveratrol, which is found in grapes and red wine, has been reported to have a variety of biological properties. It was shown in our previous research that introduction of additional hydroxyl groups into the stilbene structure increases the biological activity of resveratrol. In this study, the activity of 3,3',4,4',5,5'-hexahydroxystilbene (M8) was investigated in ZR-75-1, MDA-MB-231 and T47D human breast cancer cells. For evaluation of cytotoxic activity of M8, clonogenic and cell proliferation assays were used. The IC50 values obtained in the clonogenic assay were 0.846 microM for T47D, 8.53 microM for ZR-75-1 cells and 25.5 microM for MDA-MB-231, while IC50 values obtained in the cell proliferation assay were significantly higher: 90.1 microM, 98.4 microM, 127.8 microM for T47D, ZR-75-1 and MDA-MB-231 cells, respectively. Compound M8 caused the activation of caspase-8 in MDA-MB-231 cells (marker of extrinsic apoptotic pathway), while activities of caspase-9 (marker of intrinsic apoptotic pathway) and caspase-3 were increased in all 3 tested cell lines. Activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3 was connected with loss of mitochondrial potential and increase of p53, which could have an impact on downregulation of mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) seen in our experiments. MnSOD is a key enzyme providing antioxidative defense in mitochondria - the cellular center of reactive oxygen species' generation. Downregulation of MnSOD can therefore cause a significant decrease of antioxidant defense in cancer cells. An increase of oxidative stress conditions was suggested by loss of reduced glutathione in tested cells. Since cancer cells are usually under permanent oxidative stress, additional increased ROS generation as a result of the interaction of M8 with the mitochondrial respiratory chain and a decrease in oxidative defense can therefore be a promising method for selective elimination of cancer cells.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is associated with carcinogenesis. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species contribute to the accumulation of mutations in the genome, presumably followed by selective processes. Recent data suggest that preferred signaling pathways exist for oxidative stress-associated carcinogenesis. Whether this completely depends on random mutations induced by reactive species or whether instead some fragile genomic loci are sensitive to oxidative damage in association with changes of transcriptional activity or other topologic or nontopologic effects remains to be explored. Reliable markers for oxidative stress as well as for oxidative stress-induced preneoplastic lesions must be established.

Abstract
Superoxide dismutases (SOD), a group of metal-containing enzymes, have a vital anti-oxidant role in human health, conferred by their scavenging of one of the reactive oxygen species, superoxide anion. Three types of SODs are known in humans, with the most abundant being cytosolic SOD1, identified by its Cu, Zn-containing prosthetic group. The presence of these metals and the coordination to certain amino acids are essential for function. SODs are among the first line of defense in the detoxification of products resulting from oxidative stress. Here, we describe the importance of SOD function, and the need for coordination with other ROS-scavenging enzymes in this pathway of detoxification. The impact of metal-deficient diets (copper or zinc) or incorrect metal ion incorporation (copper chaperone for SOD) onto nascent SOD, are also examined. Finally, human pathologies associated with either SOD dysfunction or decreased activity are discussed with current progress on the development of novel therapies.
