Abstract
Muscle injuries and the subsequent regeneration events compromise muscle homeostasis at morphological, functional and molecular levels. Among the molecular alterations, those derived from the mitochondrial function are especially relevant. We analysed the mitochondrial dynamics, the redox balance, the protein oxidation and the main protein repairing mechanisms after 9 days of injury in the rat gastrocnemius muscle. During the recovery rats were exposed to intermittent cold exposure (ICE), intermittent hypobaric hypoxia (IHH), and both simultaneous combined stimuli. Non-injured contralateral legs were also analysed to evaluate the specific effects of the three environmental exposures. Our results showed that ICE enhanced mitochondrial adaptation by improving the electron transport chain efficiency during muscle recovery, decreased the expression of regulatory subunit of proteasome and accumulated oxidised proteins. Exposure to IHH did not show mitochondrial compensation or increased protein turnover mechanisms; however, no accumulation of oxidized proteins was observed. Both ICE and IHH, when applied separately, elicited an increased expression of eNOS, which could have played an important role in accelerating muscle recovery. The combined effect of ICE and IHH led to a complex response that could potentially impede optimal mitochondrial function and enhanced the accumulation of protein oxidation. These findings underscore the nuanced role of environmental stressors in the muscle healing process and their implications for optimizing recovery strategies.

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
High-altitude regions, cold deserts, permafrost regions, and the polar region have some of the severest cold conditions on earth and pose immense perils of cold injuries to exposed individuals. Accidental and unintended exposures to severe cold, either unintentionally or due to occupational risks, can greatly increase the risk of serious conditions including hypothermia, trench foot, and cold injuries like frostbite. Cold-induced vasoconstriction and intracellular/intravascular ice crystal formation lead to hypoxic conditions at the cellular level. The condition is exacerbated in individuals having inadequate and proper covering and layering, particularly when large area of the body are exposed to extremely cold environments. There is a paucity of preventive and therapeutic pharmacological modalities that have been explored for managing and treating cold injuries. Given this, an efficient modality that can potentiate the healing of frostbite was investigated by studying various complex pathophysiological changes that occur during severe cold injuries. In the current research, we report the effectiveness and healing properties of a standardized formulation, i.e., a herbosomal-loaded PEG-poloxamer topical formulation (n-HPTF), on frostbite. The intricate mechanistic pathways modulated by the novel formulation have been elucidated by studying the pathophysiological sequelae that occur following severe cold exposures leading to frostbite. The results indicate that n-HPTF ameliorates the outcome of frostbite, as it activates positive sensory nerves widely distributed in the epidermis transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), significantly (p < 0.05) upregulates cytokeratin-14, promotes angiogenesis (VEGF-A), prominently represses the expression of thromboxane formation (TXA2), and significantly (p < 0.05) restores levels of enzymatic (glutathione reductase, superoxide dismutase, and catalase) and nonenzymatic antioxidants (glutathione). Additionally, n-HPTF attenuates oxidative stress and the expression of inflammatory proteins PGF-2α, NFκB-p65, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, malondialdehyde (MDA), advanced oxidative protein products (AOPP), and protein carbonylation (PCO). Masson's Trichrome staining showed that n-HPTF stimulates cellular proliferation, and increases collagen fiber deposition, which significantly (p < 0.05) promotes the healing of frostbitten tissue, as compared to control. We conclude that protection against severe cold injuries by n-HPTF is mediated via modulation of pathways involving TRPV1, VEGF-A, TXA2, redox homeostasis, and inflammatory cascades. The study is likely to have widespread implications for the prophylaxis and management of moderate-to-severe frostbite conditions.

Abstract
Retinal degenerative diseases, including age-related macular degeneration and retinitis pigmentosa, significantly contribute to adult blindness. The Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) rat is a well-established disease model for studying these dystrophies; however, molecular investigations remain limited. We conducted a comprehensive analysis of retinal degeneration in RCS rats, including an immunodeficient RCS (iRCS) sub-strain, using ocular coherence tomography, electroretinography, histology, and molecular dissection using transcriptomics and immunofluorescence. No significant differences in retinal degeneration progression were observed between the iRCS and immunocompetent RCS rats, suggesting a minimal role of adaptive immune responses in disease. Transcriptomic alterations were primarily in inflammatory signaling pathways, characterized by the strong upregulation of Tnfa, an inflammatory signaling molecule, and Nox1, a contributor to reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. Additionally, a notable decrease in Alox15 expression was observed, pointing to a possible reduction in anti-inflammatory and pro-resolving lipid mediators. These findings were corroborated by immunostaining, which demonstrated increased photoreceptor lipid peroxidation (4HNE) and photoreceptor citrullination (CitH3) during retinal degeneration. Our work enhances the understanding of molecular changes associated with retinal degeneration in RCS rats and offers potential therapeutic targets within inflammatory and oxidative stress pathways for confirmatory research and development.

Abstract
Increasingly copper pollution in the environment exacerbates the risk of neurodegenerative diseases. It is necessary to look for effective targets and safe methods for protecting from copper-induced neurotoxicity. Here we firstly explored the impact of copper-exposure on expression profiles in zebrafish. Copper reduced embryo hatching, increased mortality and caused embryonic developmental abnormalities and behavioral dysfunction in juveniles. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that differential genes related to neuron were highly associated with oxidative stress especially enriched to FoxO pathway. Through further validation in Caenorhabditis elegans, copper resulted in nematode neurodegenerative movement disorders and neuronal damage, along with increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as decreased expressions of antioxidant-related enzymes and downstream genes which was also involved in FoxO signaling pathway. Bacillus smithii XY1, a novel strain with an excellent antioxidative activity, showed a great alleviative effect on copper-induced neurotoxicity that was related to FoxO stimulation, being a potential candidate for copper pollution management. Overall, these results suggested that FoxO pathway activation can regard as a strategy for mitigating neurotoxicity caused by copper and B. smithii XY1 with excellent tolerance and outstanding antioxidation specially targeted for FoxO has a promising application in controlling copper contamination.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation (LPO) is a biological process that frequently occurs under physiological conditions. Undue oxidative stress increases the level of LPO; which may further contribute to the development of cancer. 4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), one of the principal by-products of LPO, is present in high concentrations in oxidatively stressed cells. HNE rapidly reacts with various biological components, including DNA and proteins; however, the extent of protein degradation by lipid electrophiles is not well understood. The influence of HNE on protein structures will likely have a considerable therapeutic value. This research elucidates the potential of HNE, one of the most researched phospholipid peroxidation products, in modifying low-density lipoprotein (LDL). In this study, we tracked the structural alterations in LDL by HNE using various physicochemical techniques. To comprehend the stability, binding mechanism and conformational dynamics of the HNE-LDL complex, computational investigations were carried out. LDL was altered in vitro by HNE, and the secondary and tertiary structural alterations were examined using spectroscopic methods, such as UV-visible, fluorescence, circular dichroism and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Carbonyl content, thiobarbituric acid-reactive-substance (TBARS) and nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) reduction assays were used to examine changes in the oxidation status of LDL. Thioflavin T (ThT), 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic (ANS) binding assay and electron microscopy were used to investigate aggregates formation. According to our research, LDL modified by HNE results in changes in structural dynamics, oxidative stress and the formation of LDL aggregates. The current investigation must characterize HNE's interactions with LDL and comprehend how it can change their physiological or pathological functions.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (CIRI) is a major contributor to poor prognosis of ischemic stroke. Flavonoids are a broad family of plant polyphenols which are abundant in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and have beneficial effects on several diseases including ischemic stroke. Accumulating studies have indicated that flavonoids derived from herbal TCM are effective in alleviating CIRI after ischemic stroke in vitro or in vivo, and exhibit favourable therapeutical potential. Herein, we systematically review the classification, metabolic absorption, neuroprotective efficacy, and mechanisms of TCM flavonoids against CIRI. The literature suggest that flavonoids exert potential medicinal functions including suppressing excitotoxicity, Ca2+ overloading, oxidative stress, inflammation, thrombin's cellular toxicity, different types of programmed cell deaths, and protecting the blood-brain barrier, as well as promoting neurogenesis in the recovery stage following ischemic stroke. Furthermore, we identified certain matters that should be taken into account in future research, as well as proposed difficulties and opportunities in transforming TCM-derived flavonoids into medications or functional foods for the treatment or prevention of CIRI. Overall, in this review we aim to provide novel ideas for the identification of new prospective medication candidates for the therapeutic strategy against ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Alzheimer disease (AD) is associated with multiple etiologies and pathological mechanisms, among which oxidative stress (OS) appears as a major determinant. Intriguingly, OS arises in various pathways regulating brain functions, and it seems to link different hypotheses and mechanisms of AD neuropathology with high fidelity. The brain is particularly vulnerable to oxidative damage, mainly because of its unique lipid composition, resulting in an amplified cascade of redox reactions that target several cellular components/functions ultimately leading to neurodegeneration. The present review highlights the "OS hypothesis of AD," including amyloid beta-peptide-associated mechanisms, the role of lipid and protein oxidation unraveled by redox proteomics, and the antioxidant strategies that have been investigated to modulate the progression of AD. Collected studies from our groups and others have contributed to unraveling the close relationships between perturbation of redox homeostasis in the brain and AD neuropathology by elucidating redox-regulated events potentially involved in both the pathogenesis and progression of AD. However, the complexity of AD pathological mechanisms requires an in-depth understanding of several major intracellular pathways affecting redox homeostasis and relevant for brain functions. This understanding is crucial to developing pharmacological strategies targeting OS-mediated toxicity that may potentially contribute to slow AD progression as well as improve the quality of life of persons with this severe dementing disorder.

Abstract
Malondialdehyde (MDA; 1,3-propanedial, OHC-CH2-CHO) is one of the most frequently measured biomarkers of oxidative stress in plasma and serum. L-Arginine (Arg) is the substrate of nitric oxide synthases (NOS), which convert L-arginine to nitric oxide (NO) and L-citrulline. The Arg/NO pathway comprises several members, including the endogenous NOS-activity inhibitor asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and its major metabolite dimethyl amine (DMA), and nitrite and nitrate, the major NO metabolites. Reliable measurement of MDA and members of the Arg/NO pathway in plasma, serum, urine and in other biological samples, such as saliva and cerebrospinal fluid, is highly challenging both for analytical and pre-analytical reasons. In our group, we use validated gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) methods for the quantitative determination in clinical studies of MDA as a biomarker of oxidative stress, and various Arg/NO metabolites that describe the status of this pathway. Here, the importance of pre-analytical issues, which has emerged from the use of GC-MS and GC-MS/MS in clinico-pharmacological studies, is discussed. Paradigmatically, two studies on the long-term oral administration of L-arginine dihydrochloride to patients suffering from peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) or coronary artery disease (CAD) were considered. Pre-analytical issues that were addressed include blood sampling, plasma or serum storage, study design (notably in long-term studies), and the alternative of measuring MDA in human urine.

Abstract
Purpose The mortality rate of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) remains high due to the absence of quick and accurate diagnostic approaches at its early stage. Our aim is to evaluate the diagnostic value of the elevated expression of Aurora kinase A (AURKA) and the oxidative stress markers (such as glutathione, superoxide dismutase and malondialdehyde) in serum of NPC patients and to establish a nomogram model for predicting NPC on the ground of these biomarkers. Patients and Methods Serum samples from 93 NPC patients and 94 healthy subjects were collected. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was adopted to determine the AURKA level, while oxidative stress markers were measured by commercially available appropriate kits. Logistic regression was used for NPC predictor identification and nomogram construction. The training and validation cohorts (3:1) were randomly split up from the participants. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and decision curve analyses (DCAs) were performed to validate the nomogram. Results AURKA and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were significantly high in the NPC population compared to the healthy controls (P < 0.0001). The nomogram resulted in an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.897 (95% confidence interval: 0.848-0.947) in the training set and AUC of 0.770 (0.628-0.912) in the validation set. The predicted probability and the actual probability matched well in the nomogram (P > 0.05). DCAs showed good results too. Conclusion Serum levels of AURKA, SOD, and MDA have diagnostic values in NPC. The nomogram based on the identified biomarkers is favorable for NPC prediction.

Abstract
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is an enzyme found in the mitochondrial matrix that plays a central role in alcohol and aldehyde metabolism. A common ALDH2 polymorphism in East Asians descent (called ALDH2*2 or E504K missense variant, SNP ID: rs671), present in approximately 8% of the world's population, has been associated with a variety of diseases. Recent meta-analyses support the relationship between this ALDH2 polymorphism and Alzheimer's disease (AD). And AD-like pathology observed in ALDH2-/- null mice and ALDH2*2 overexpressing transgenic mice indicate that ALDH2 deficiency plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AD. Recently, the worldwide increase in alcohol consumption has drawn attention to the relationship between heavy alcohol consumption and AD. Of potential clinical significance, chronic administration of alcohol in ALDH2*2/*2 knock-in mice exacerbates the pathogenesis of AD-like symptoms. Therefore, ALDH2 polymorphism and alcohol consumption likely play an important role in the onset and progression of AD. Here, we review the data on the relationship between ALDH2 polymorphism, alcohol, and AD, and summarize what is currently known about the role of the common ALDH2 inactivating mutation, ALDH2*2, and alcohol in the onset and progression of AD.

Abstract
Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a pathological process wherein reperfusion of an ischemic organ or tissue exacerbates the injury, posing a significant health threat and economic burden to patients and their families. I/R triggers a multitude of physiological and pathological events, such as inflammatory responses, oxidative stress, neuronal cell death, and disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Hence, the development of effective therapeutic strategies targeting the pathological processes resulting from I/R is crucial for the rehabilitation and long-term enhancement of the quality of life in patients with cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (CIRI). Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) monomers refer to bioactive compounds extracted from Chinese herbal medicine, possessing anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects, and the ability to modulate programmed cell death (PCD). TCM monomers have emerged as promising candidates for the treatment of CIRI and its subsequent complications. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that TCM monomers can enhance the recovery of neurological function following CIRI by mitigating oxidative stress, suppressing inflammatory responses, reducing neuronal cell death and functional impairment, as well as minimizing cerebral infarction volume. The neuroprotective effects of TCM monomers on CIRI have been extensively investigated, and a comprehensive understanding of their mechanisms can pave the way for novel approaches to I/R treatment. This review aims to update and summarize evidence of the protective effects of TCMs in CIRI, with a focus on their role in modulating oxidative stress, inflammation, PCD, glutamate excitotoxicity, Ca2+ overload, as well as promoting blood-brain barrier repairment and angiogenesis. The main objective is to underscore the significant contribution of TCM monomers in alleviating CIRI.

Abstract
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is known to be associated with several cancers along with neurological modalities like Alzheimer's disease (AD) and multiple sclerosis (MS). Previous study from our group revealed that a 12 amino acid peptide fragment (146SYKHVFLSAFVY157) of EBV glycoprotein M (gM) exhibits amyloid-like self-aggregative properties. In the current study, we have investigated its effect on Aβ42 aggregation along with its effect on neural cell immunology and disease markers. EBV virion was also considered for the above-mentioned investigation. An increase in the aggregation of Aβ42 peptide was observed upon incubation with gM146-157. Further, the exposure of EBV and gM146-157 onto neuronal cells indicated the upregulation of inflammatory molecules like IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and TGF-β that suggested neuroinflammation. Besides, host cell factors like mitochondrial potential and calcium ion signaling play a crucial role in cellular homeostasis and alterations in these factors aid in neurodegeneration. Changes in mitochondrial membrane potential manifested a decrease while elevation in the level of total Ca2+ ions was observed. Amelioration of Ca2+ ions triggers excitotoxicity in neurons. Subsequently, neurological disease-associated genes APP, ApoE4, and MBP were found to be increased at the protein level. Additionally, demyelination of neurons is a hallmark of MS and the myelin sheath consists of ∼70% of lipid/cholesterol-associated moieties. Hereby, genes associated with cholesterol metabolism indicated changes at the mRNA level. Enhanced expression of neurotropic factors like NGF and BDNF was discerned postexposure to EBV and gM146-157. Altogether, this study delineates a direct connection of EBV and its peptide gM146-157 with neurological illnesses.

Protective effects of an anti-4-HNE monoclonal antibody against liver injury and lethality of endotoxemia in mice. Eur J Pharmacol 2023; 950:175702. [PMID: 37059372 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2023.175702] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2023] [Revised: 03/28/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 04/16/2023]
Abstract
4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) is a lipid peroxidation product that is known to be elevated during oxidative stress. During systemic inflammation and endotoxemia, plasma levels of 4-HNE are elevated in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. 4-HNE is a highly reactive molecule due to its generation of both Schiff bases and Michael adducts with proteins, which may result in modulation of inflammatory signaling pathways. In this study, we report the production of a 4-HNE adduct-specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) and the effectiveness of the intravenous injection of this mAb (1 mg/kg) in ameliorating LPS (10 mg/kg, i.v.)-induced endotoxemia and liver injury in mice. Endotoxic lethality in control mAb-treated group was suppressed by the administration of anti-4-HNE mAb (75 vs. 27%). After LPS injection, we observed a significant increase in the plasma levels of AST, ALT, IL-6, TNF-α and MCP-1, and elevated expressions of IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α in the liver. All these elevations were inhibited by anti-4-HNE mAb treatment. As to the underlining mechanism, anti-4-HNE mAb inhibited the elevation of plasma high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) levels, the translocation and release of HMGB1 in the liver and the formation of 4-HNE adducts themselves, suggesting a functional role of extracellular 4-HNE adducts in hypercytokinemia and liver injury associated with HMGB1 mobilization. In summary, this study reveals a novel therapeutic application of anti-4-HNE mAb for endotoxemia.

Abstract
The demand for a wide choice of food that is safe and palatable increases every day. Consumers do not accept off-flavors that have atypical odors resulting from internal deterioration or contamination by substances alien to the food. Odor response depends on the volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and their detection can provide information about food quality. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry is the most powerful method available for the detection of VOC. However, it is laborious, costly, and requires the presence of a trained operator. To develop a faster analytic tool, we designed a non-Faradaic impedimetric biosensor for monitoring the presence of VOCs involved in food spoilage. The biosensor is based on the use of the pig odorant-binding protein (pOBP) as the molecular recognition element. We evaluated the affinity of pOBP for three different volatile organic compounds (1-octen-3-ol, trans-2-hexen-1-ol, and hexanal) related to food spoilage. We developed an electrochemical biosensor conducting impedimetric measurements in liquid and air samples. The impedance changes allowed us to detect each VOC sample at a minimum concentration of 0.1 μM.

Abstract
The world population is aging rapidly, and increasing lifespan exacerbates the burden of age-related health issues. On the other hand, premature aging has begun to be a problem, with increasing numbers of younger people suffering aging-related symptoms. Advanced aging is caused by a combination of factors: lifestyle, diet, external and internal factors, as well as oxidative stress (OS). Although OS is the most researched aging factor, it is also the least understood. OS is important not only in relation to aging but also due to its strong impact on neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), Alzheimer's disease (AD), and Parkinson's disease (PD). In this review, we will discuss the aging process in relation to OS, the function of OS in neurodegenerative disorders, and prospective therapeutics capable of relieving neurodegenerative symptoms associated with the pro-oxidative condition.

Abstract
To address the drinking safety problems associated with high arsenic(III) (As(III)) and bacteria in underground water, core-shell Fe-Ag@AgCl nanowires were synthesized and exhibited excellent photocatalytic oxidation effects on co-existing As(III) and Escherichia coli (E. coli). With the introduction of Fe, the nanowires that were used 5 times could be easily magnetically collected, and the As(III) oxidation effect of these re-chlorinated nanowires increased from 39% to 60%. E. coli was completely inactivated within 60 min without photoreactivation after 20 min. Extracellular polymeric substances have play a protective role in the disinfection process. Quenching testing results confirmed that, except for the superoxide radical (•O2-), the subdominant active species were different for different objects: hole (hVB+) to As(III) and hydroxyl radical (•OH) to E. coli. Therefore the system with co-existing As(III) and E. coli, the inactivation effect of Fe-Ag@AgCl on E. coli decreased remarkably with an increase in As(III) concentration, while the oxidation process of As(III) was not significantly affected by E. coli until E. coli was increased to 108 cfu/mL. The photocatalytic process of co-existing As(III) and E. coli is displayed in a schematic diagram and was tested using desired results obtained from field groundwater in Xiantao City, Hubei Province. The function of Fe in band structures and density of states was analyzed using plane-wave density functional theory. These magnetic nanowires presented excellent photocatalytic ability on co-existing As(III) and E. coli, and provided new insights into drinking water safety in high-arsenic areas.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the association between beta oscillations and brain iron deposition. Beta oscillations were filtered from the microelectrode recordings of local field potentials (LFP) in the subthalamic nucleus (STN), and the ratio of the power spectral density of beta oscillations (PSDXb) to that of the LFP signals was calculated. Iron deposition in the deep gray matter (DGM) structures was indirectly assessed using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM). The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), part III, was used to assess the severity of symptoms. Spearman correlation coefficients were applied to assess the associations of PSDXb with QSM values in the DGM structures and the severity of symptoms. PSDXb showed a significant positive correlation with the average QSM values in DGM structures, including caudate and substantia nigra (SN) (p = 0.008 and 0.044). Similarly, the PSDXb showed significant negative correlations with the severity of symptoms, including axial symptoms and the gait in the medicine-off state (p = 0.006 for both). The abnormal iron metabolism in the SN and striatum pathways may be one of the underlying mechanisms for the occurrence of abnormal beta oscillations in the STN, and beta oscillations may serve as important pathophysiological biomarkers of PD.

Abstract
Secondary insult from cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI) is a major risk factor for poor prognosis of cerebral ischemia. Saponins are steroid or triterpenoid glycosides with various pharmacological activities that are effective in treating CIRI. By browsing the literature from 2001 to 2021, 55 references involving 24 kinds of saponins were included. Saponins were shown to relieve CIRI by inhibiting oxidation stress, neuroinflammation, and apoptosis, restoring BBB integrity, and promoting neurogenesis and angiogenesis. This review summarizes and classifies several common saponins and their mechanisms in relieving CIRI. Information provided in this review will benefit researchers to design, research and develop new medicines to treat CIRI-related conditions with saponins.

Abstract
PURPOSE Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most frequent subtype of thyroid cancer; Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), autoimmune disease, commonly affects the thyroid gland; there is possibly a correlation between both, but the exact mechanisms that involve this relationship are still under debate. Since oxidative stress (OS) and the inflammatory environment participate in the development of several types of cancer, the objective of the present study was to establish the microenvironment and systemic participation of OS and inflammatory markers in patients with PTC and HT. METHODS Blood and tissue samples were collected from 115 patients: BENIGN (n = 63); PTC (n = 27); HT (n = 15) and PTC + HT (n = 10), and sixty-three were samples from healthy individuals (control group). RESULTS Superoxide dismutase, Catalase, reduced Glutathione, markers of lipid peroxidation and inflammation were evaluated in blood. Immunohistochemistry was performed on 3-nitrotyrosine, 4-hydroxynonenal, Ki-67 and VEGF. The results indicate that antioxidant enzymes were more active in groups with thyroid disorders compared to control, while the concentration of Reduced glutathione was reduced in BENIGN and PTC groups. When PTC and PTC + HT groups were analyzed, no significant differences were found in relation to the antioxidant defense and inflammatory markers. The ability to contain the induced lipid peroxidation was lower and a high level of malondialdehyde was observed in the PTC group. All immunohistochemical markers had higher scores in the PTC group compared to PTC + HT. CONCLUSION There was a more pronounced presence of OS and a greater activity of cell proliferation and angiogenesis markers in PTC than in PTC + HT group.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating brain disorder that afflicts millions worldwide with no effective treatment. Currently, AD progression has primarily been characterized by abnormal accumulations of β-amyloid within plaques and phosphorylated tau within neurofibrillary tangles, giving rise to neurodegeneration due to synaptic and neuronal loss. While β-amyloid and tau deposition are required for clinical diagnosis of AD, presence of such abnormalities does not tell the complete story, and the actual mechanisms behind neurodegeneration in AD progression are still not well understood. Support for abnormal iron accumulation playing a role in AD pathogenesis includes its presence in the early stages of the disease, its interactions with β-amyloid and tau, and the important role it plays in AD related inflammation. In this review, we present the existing evidence of pathological iron accumulation in the human AD brain, as well as discuss the imaging tools and peripheral measures available to characterize iron accumulation and dysregulation in AD, which may help in developing iron-based biomarkers or therapeutic targets for the disease.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a type of programmed cell death caused by phospholipid peroxidation that has been implicated as a mechanism in several diseases resulting from ischemic-reperfusion injury. Most recently, ferroptosis has been identified as a possible key injury mechanism in neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HIBI). This review summarizes the current literature regarding the different ferroptotic pathways, how they may be activated after neonatal HIBI, and which current or investigative interventions may attenuate ferroptotic cell death associated with neonatal HIBI.

Abstract
Oxidative stress plays a significant role in cancer development and cancer therapy, and is a major contributor to normal tissue injury. The unique characteristics of extracellular vesicles (EVs) have made them potentially useful as a diagnostic tool in that their molecular content indicates their cell of origin and their lipid membrane protects the content from enzymatic degradation. In addition to their possible use as a diagnostic tool, their role in how normal and diseased cells communicate is of high research interest. The most exciting area is the association of EVs, oxidative stress, and pathogenesis of numerous diseases. However, the relationship between oxidative stress and oxidative modifications of EVs is still unclear, which limits full understanding of the clinical potential of EVs. Here, we discuss how EVs, oxidative stress, and cancer therapy relate to one another; how oxidative stress can contribute to the generation of EVs; and how EVs’ contents reveal the presence of oxidative stress. We also point out the potential promise and limitations of using oxidatively modified EVs as biomarkers of cancer and tissue injury with a focus on pediatric oncology patients.

Abstract
Cranial radiation is important for treating both primary brain tumors and brain metastases. A potential delayed side effect of cranial radiation is neurocognitive function decline. Early detection of CNS injury might prevent further neuronal damage. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as a potential diagnostic tool because of their unique membranous characteristics and cargos. We investigated whether EVs can be an early indicator of CNS injury by giving C57BJ/6 mice 10 Gy cranial IR. EVs were isolated from sera to quantify: 1) number of EVs using nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA); 2) Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), an astrocyte marker; and 3) protein-bound 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) adducts, an oxidative damage marker. Brain tissues were prepared for immunohistochemistry staining and protein immunoblotting. The results demonstrate: 1) increased GFAP levels (p < 0.05) in EVs, but not brain tissue, in the IR group; and 2) increased HNE-bound protein adduction levels (p < 0.05). The results support using EVs as an early indicator of cancer therapy-induced neuronal injury.

Abstract
Background: There is no effective medication for treatment or prevention of hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (HIR) injury caused by liver transplantation and hepatectomy. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of metformin on HIR injury and related myocardial injury in rats.Methods: Wistar male rats were randomly divided into four groups: sham group, ischemia-reperfusion group, and IR group treated with metformin 150 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg. Wistar male rats were administered metformin 150 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg or saline 30 min pre-operative and underwent 15 min ischemia and 6 h reperfusion (n = 4).Results: Metformin significantly alleviates the injury caused by HIR. Administration of metformin resulted in a significant reduction in the serum levels of alanine transaminase and aspartate transaminase and the activity of malondialdehyde, creatine kinase-MB, and lactate dehydrogenase but maintained high catalase and superoxide dismutase activity. Metformin significantly inhibited the IR-induced elevation of tumor necrosis factor-α in liver and heart tissue.Conclusion: Metformin can alleviate hepatic and myocardial injury induced by IR by inhibiting oxidative stress.

Agmatine Mitigates Inflammation-Related Oxidative Stress in BV-2 Cells by Inducing a Pre-Adaptive Response. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23073561.

Abstract
Neuroinflammation and microglial activation, common components of most neurodegenerative diseases, can be imitated in vitro by challenging microglia cells with Lps. We here aimed to evaluate the effects of agmatine pretreatment on Lps-induced oxidative stress in a mouse microglial BV-2 cell line. Our findings show that agmatine suppresses nitrosative and oxidative burst in Lps-stimulated microglia by reducing iNOS and XO activity and decreasing O2- levels, arresting lipid peroxidation, increasing total glutathione content, and preserving GR and CAT activity. In accordance with these results, agmatine suppresses inflammatory NF-kB, and stimulates antioxidant Nrf2 pathway, resulting in decreased TNF, IL-1 beta, and IL-6 release, and reduced iNOS and COX-2 levels. Together with increased ARG1, CD206 and HO-1 levels, our results imply that, in inflammatory conditions, agmatine pushes microglia towards an anti-inflammatory phenotype. Interestingly, we also discovered that agmatine alone increases lipid peroxidation end product levels, induces Nrf2 activation, increases total glutathione content, and GPx activity. Thus, we hypothesize that some of the effects of agmatine, observed in activated microglia, may be mediated by induced oxidative stress and adaptive response, prior to Lps stimulation.

Abstract
Protein carbonylation is a post-translational modification associated with the reactive oxygen species. It results from the direct oxidation of the side chains of Lys, Arg, Pro, and Thr residues by hydroxyl radical HO• or the addition of reactive carbonyl species including α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and oxylipins to the side chain of Cys, His, and Lys. Recent findings indicated that the phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) induces the production of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes that modulate the effect of ABA on stomatal closure. This indicated that α,β-unsaturated aldehydes might mediate ABA signaling. In this study, we investigated the ABA-induced protein carbonylation events by profiling the carbonylated proteome extracted from Arabidopsis thaliana leaves after ABA treatment. The carbonylated proteins were enriched by affinity chromatography and subjected to liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. We identified 180 carbonylated proteins. Of these, 26 proteins became carbonylated upon ABA treatment, whereas 163 proteins that were carbonylated in untreated samples were no longer detected in the ABA-treated samples, which points to dynamic control of protein carbonylation by ABA in A. thaliana. A few regulatory stress-related proteins and enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of the aspartate family of amino acids were overrepresented in the list of proteins, which the carbonylation status changed between untreated and ABA-treated samples. These results indicated that ABA triggers a change in the pattern of protein carbonylation in A. thaliana. This change is independent of the commonly seen increased levels of carbonylated proteins in the plants subjected to deadly stress conditions.

Ginsenoside Rg1 Plays a Neuroprotective Role in Regulating the Iron-Regulated Proteins and Against Lipid Peroxidation in Oligodendrocytes. Neurochem Res 2022; 47:1721-1735.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder. Progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra (SN) is one of the major pathological changes. However, the reasons for the dopaminergic neuron loss are still ambiguous and further studies are needed to evaluate the in-depth mechanisms of neuron death. Oxidative stress is a significant factor causing neuronal damage. Dopaminergic neurons in the SN are susceptible to oxidative stress, which is closely associated with iron dyshomeostasis in the brain. Ginsenoside Rg1 from ginseng plays a crucial role in neuroprotective effects through anti-inflammation and attenuating the aggregation of abnormal α-synuclein. In our study, we established a chronic PD mouse model by 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1, 2, 3, 6-tetrahydropyridine combined with probenecid and explored the effect of Rg1 on the oxidative stress and brain iron homeostasis. Rg1 was verified to improve the level of tyrosine hydroxylase and anti-oxidant stress. In addition, Rg1 maintained the iron-regulated protein homeostasis by increasing the expression of ferritin heavy chain and decreasing ferritin light chain in oligodendrocytes, especially the mature oligodendrocytes (OLs). Furthermore, Rg1 had a positive effect on the myelin sheath protection and increased the number of mature oligodendrocytes, proved by the increased staining of myelin basic protein and CC-1. In conclusion, Rg1 could play a neuroprotective role through remitting the iron-regulated protein dyshomeostasis by ferritin and against lipid peroxidation stress in oligodendrocytes.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction and metabolic decline are prevalent features of aging and age-related disorders, including neurodegeneration. Neurodegenerative diseases are associated with a progressive loss of metabolic homeostasis. This pathogenic decline in metabolism is the result of several factors, including decreased mitochondrial function, increased oxidative stress, inhibited autophagic flux, and altered metabolic substrate availability. One critical metabolite for maintaining neuronal function is glucose, which is utilized by the brain more than any other organ to meet its substantial metabolic demand. Enzymatic conversion of glucose into its downstream metabolites is critical for maintaining neuronal cell growth and overall metabolic homeostasis. Perturbation of glycolysis could significantly hinder neuronal metabolism by affecting key metabolic pathways. Here, we demonstrate that the glucose analogue 2-deoxyglucose (2DG) decreases cell viability, as well as both basal and maximal mitochondrial oxygen consumption in response to the neurotoxic lipid 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), whereas glucose deprivation has a minimal effect. Furthermore, using a cell permeabilization assay we found that 2DG has a more pronounced effect on HNE-dependent inhibition of mitochondrial complex I and II than glucose deprivation. Importantly, these findings indicate that altered glucose utilization plays a critical role in dictating neuronal survival by regulating the mitochondrial response to electrophilic stress.

Abstract
We report a chemically tuned fluorogenic electrophile designed to conduct live-cell super-resolution imaging by exploiting its stochastic reversible alkylation reaction with cellular nucleophiles. Consisting of a lipophilic BODIPY fluorophore tethered to an electrophilic cyanoacrylate warhead, the new probe cyanoAcroB remains nonemissive due to internal conversion along the cyanoacrylate moiety. Intermittent fluorescence occurs following thiolate Michael addition to the probe, followed by retro-Michael reaction, tuned by the cyano moiety in the acrylate warhead and BODIPY decoration. This design enables long-term super-resolved imaging of live cells by preventing fluorescent product accumulation and background increase, while preserving the pool of the probe. We demonstrate the imaging capabilities of cyanoAcroB via two methods: (i) single-molecule localization microscopy imaging with nanometer accuracy by stochastic chemical activation and (ii) super-resolution radial fluctuation. The latter tolerates higher probe concentrations and low imaging powers, as it exploits the stochastic adduct dissociation. Super-resolved imaging with cyanoAcroB reveals that electrophile alkylation is prevalent in mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum. The 2D dynamics of these organelles within a single cell are unraveled with tens of nanometers spatial and sub-second temporal resolution through continuous imaging of cyanoAcroB extending for tens of minutes. Our work underscores the opportunities that reversible fluorogenic probes with bioinspired warheads bring toward illuminating chemical reactions with super-resolved features in live cells.

Abstract
The role of neuronal inflammation developing during the formation of amyloid plaques and Lewy bodies is investigated. The influence of various exogenous and endogenous factors on the development of neuroinflammation is established, but the role of various infectious agents in the development of this process is much less studied. Today, the existence of a universal trigger mechanism of the neurodegenerative process is obvious: a specific pathogen of a bacterial or viral nature (including long-term persistent in nervous tissue in a latent state), reactivating, penetrates into certain cerebral structures, where it is influenced by either Aβ or resident macrophages of the central nervous system, which, in turn, are activated and induce the release of proinflammatory cytokines, leading to the development of neuronal inflammation, autophagy and neurodegeneration. The reactivation of latent infection, such as herpes, in APOE4 carriers significantly increases the risk of development of Alzheimer’s disease. Class-II genes of the HLA locus (HLA II) may be related to the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. An increase in iron levels in the glia is induced by inflammation, which leads to neurodegeneration. Disruption of the homeostasis of redox-active metals, iron and copper, is an integral part of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. The developing neuroinflammation leads to intensification of the processes of peroxidation, oxidation of metals and the development of ferroptosis.

Abstract
Although it is known that textile wastewater contains highly toxic contaminants whose effects in humans represent public health problems in several countries, studies involving mammal species are scarce. This study was aimed to evaluate the toxicity profile of 90-days oral administration of textile dyeing effluent (TDE) on oxidative stress status and histological changes of male mice. The TDE was collected from the textile plant of Monastir, Tunisia and evaluated for the metals, aromatic amines, and textile dyes using analytical approaches. Metal analysis by ICP-MS showed that the tested TDE exhibited very high levels of Cr, As, and Sr, which exceeded the wastewater emission limits prescribed by WHO and Tunisian authority. The screening of TDE through UPLC-MS/MS confirmed the presence of two textile dyes: a triphenylmethane dye (Crystal violet) and a disperse azo dye (Disperse yellow 3). Exposure to TDE significantly altered the malondialdehyde (MDA), Conjugated dienes (CDs), Sulfhydryl proteins (SHP) and catalase levels in the hepatic and renal tissues. Furthermore, histopathology observation showed that hepatocellular and renal lesions were induced by TDE exposure. The present study concluded that TDE may involve induction of oxidative stress which ensues in pathological lesions in several vital organs suggesting its high toxicity. Metals and textile dyes may be associated with the observed toxicological effects of the TDE. These pollutants, which may have seeped into surrounding rivers in Monastir city, can cause severe health malaise in wildlife and humans.

The interplay among oxidative stress, brain insulin resistance and AMPK dysfunction contribute to neurodegeneration in type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer disease. Free Radic Biol Med 2021; 176:16-33.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly followed by vascular dementia. In addition to clinically diagnosed dementia, cognitive dysfunction has been reported in diabetic patients. Recent studies are now beginning to recognize type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and insulin resistance, as a risk factor for AD and other cognitive disorders. While studies on insulin action have remained traditionally in the domain of peripheral tissues, the detrimental effects of insulin resistance in the central nervous system on cognitive dysfunction are increasingly being reported in recent clinical and preclinical studies. Brain functions require continuous supply of glucose and oxygen and a tight regulation of metabolic processes. Loss of this metabolic regulation has been proposed to be a contributor to memory dysfunction associated with neurodegeneration. Within the above scenario, this review will focus on the interplay among oxidative stress (OS), insulin resistance and AMPK dysfunctions in the brain by highlighting how these neurotoxic events contribute to neurodegeneration. We provide an overview on the detrimental effects of OS on proteins regulating insulin signaling and how these alterations impact cell metabolic dysfunctions through AMPK dysregulation. Such processes, we assert, are critically involved in the molecular pathways that underlie AD.

Abstract
As the population ages, the incidence of neurodegenerative diseases is increasing. Due to intensive research, important steps in the elucidation of pathogenetic cascades have been made and significantly implicated mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. However, the available treatment in Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is mainly symptomatic, providing minor benefits and, at most, slowing down the progression of the disease. Although in preclinical setting, drugs targeting mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress yielded encouraging results, clinical trials failed or had inconclusive results. It is likely that by the time of clinical diagnosis, the pathogenetic cascades are full-blown and significant numbers of neurons have already degenerated, making it impossible for mitochondria-targeted or antioxidant molecules to stop or reverse the process. Until further research will provide more efficient molecules, a healthy lifestyle, with plenty of dietary antioxidants and avoidance of exogenous oxidants may postpone the onset of neurodegeneration, while familial cases may benefit from genetic testing and aggressive therapy started in the preclinical stage.

Abstract
Carbonyl-containing metabolites widely exist in biological samples and have important physiological functions. Thus, accurate and sensitive quantitative analysis of carbonyl-containing metabolites is crucial to provide insight into metabolic pathways as well as disease mechanisms. Although reversed phase liquid chromatography electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (RPLC-ESI-MS) is widely used due to the powerful separation capability of RPLC and high specificity and sensitivity of MS, but it is often challenging to directly analyze carbonyl-containing metabolites using RPLC-ESI-MS due to the poor ionization efficiency of neutral carbonyl groups in ESI. Modification of carbonyl-containing metabolites by a chemical derivatization strategy can overcome the obstacle of sensitivity; however, it is insufficient to achieve accurate quantification due to instrument drift and matrix effects. The emergence of stable isotope-coded derivatization (ICD) provides a good solution to the problems encountered above. Thus, LC-MS methods that utilize ICD have been applied in metabolomics including quantitative targeted analysis and untargeted profiling analysis. In addition, ICD makes multiplex or multichannel submetabolome analysis possible, which not only reduces instrument running time but also avoids the variation of MS response. In this review, representative derivatization reagents and typical applications in absolute quantification and submetabolome profiling are discussed to highlight the superiority of the ICD strategy for detection of carbonyl-containing metabolites.

Formation of Secondary and Tertiary Volatile Compounds Resulting from the Lipid Oxidation of Rapeseed Oil. Foods 2021; 10:foods10102417.

Abstract
The lipid oxidation of fats and oils leads to volatile organic compounds, having a decisive influence on the sensory quality of foods. To understand formation and degradation pathways and to evaluate the suitability of lipid-derived aldehydes as marker substances for the oxidative status of foods, the formation of secondary and tertiary lipid oxidation compounds was investigated with gas chromatography in rapeseed oils. After 120 min, up to 65 compounds were detected. In addition to secondary degradation products, tertiary products such as alkyl furans, ketones, and aldol condensation products were also found. The comparison of rapeseed oils, differing in their initial peroxide values, showed that the formation rate of secondary compounds was higher in pre-damaged oils. Simultaneously, a faster degradation, especially of unsaturated aldehydes, was observed. Consequently, the formation of tertiary products (e.g., alkyl furans, aldol adducts) from well-known lipid oxidation products (i.e., propanal, hexanal, 2-hexenal, and 2-nonenal) was investigated in model systems. The experiments showed that these compounds form the new substances in subsequent reactions, especially, when other compounds such as phospholipids are present. Hexanal and propanal are suitable as marker compounds in the early phase of lipid oxidation, but at an advanced stage they are subject to aldol condensation. Consequently, the detection of tertiary degradation products needs to be considered in advanced lipid oxidation.

Abstract
Social isolation deprives rodents of social interactions that are critical for normal development of brain and behavior. Several studies have indicated that postweaning isolation rearing may affect nitric oxide (NO) production. The aim of this study was to compare selected behavioral and biochemical changes related to NO production in the brain of rats reared in social isolation for different duration. At the age of 21 days, male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly assigned into four groups reared in isolation or socially for 10 or 29 weeks. At the end of the rearing, open-field and prepulse inhibition (PPI) tests were carried out. Furthermore, in several brain areas we assessed NO synthase (NOS) activity, protein expression of nNOS and iNOS isoforms and the concentration of conjugated dienes (CD), a marker of oxidative damage and lipid peroxidation. Social isolation for 10 weeks resulted in a significant decrease in PPI, which was accompanied by a decrease in NOS activity in the cerebral cortex and the cerebellum, an increase in iNOS in the hippocampus and an increase in CD concentration in cortex homogenate. On the other hand, a 29 week isolation had an opposite effect on NOS activity, which increased in the cerebral cortex and the cerebellum in animals reared in social isolation, accompanied by a decrease in CD concentration. The decrease in NOS activity after 10 weeks of isolation might have been caused by chronic stress induced by social isolation, which has been documented in previous studies. The increased oxidative state might result in the depleted NO bioavailability, as NO reacts with superoxide radical creating peroxynitrite. After 29 weeks of isolation, this loss of NO might be compensated by the subsequent increase in NOS activity.

Abstract
Oxygen-free radicals, reactive oxygen species (ROS) or reactive nitrogen species (RNS), are known by their "double-sided" nature in biological systems. The beneficial effects of ROS involve physiological roles as weapons in the arsenal of the immune system (destroying bacteria within phagocytic cells) and role in programmed cell death (apoptosis). On the other hand, the redox imbalance in favor of the prooxidants results in an overproduction of the ROS/RNS leading to oxidative stress. This imbalance can, therefore, be related to oncogenic stimulation. High levels of ROS disrupt cellular processes by nonspecifically attacking proteins, lipids, and DNA. It appears that DNA damage is the key player in cancer initiation and the formation of 8-OH-G, a potential biomarker for carcinogenesis. The harmful effect of ROS is neutralized by an antioxidant protection treatment as they convert ROS into less reactive species. However, contradictory epidemiological results show that supplementation above physiological doses recommended for antioxidants and taken over a long period can lead to harmful effects and even increase the risk of cancer. Thus, we are describing here some of the latest updates on the involvement of oxidative stress in cancer pathology and a double view on the role of the antioxidants in this context and how this could be relevant in the management and pathology of cancer.

Abstract
Since oxidative stress has been recognized as a major factor contributing to the progression of several neurodegenerative disorders, reactive oxygen species (ROS) including superoxide have received great attention as a representative molecular marker for the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Here, superoxide-sensitive fluorogenic molecular probes, benzenesulfonylated resorufin derivatives (BSRs), were newly devised for optical bioimaging of oxidative events in neurodegenerative processes. BSRs, fluorescence-quenched benzenesulfonylated derivatives of resorufin, were designed to recover their fluorescence upon exposure to superoxide through a selective nucleophilic uncaging reaction of the benzenesulfonyl cage. Among BSRs, BSR6 presented the best sensitivity and selectivity to superoxide likely due to the optimal reactivity matching between the nucleophilicity of superoxide and its electrophilicity ascribed to the highly electron-withdrawing pentafluoro-substitution on the benzenesulfonyl cage. Fluorescence imaging of inflammatory cells and animal models presented the potential of BSR6 for optical sensing of superoxide in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, microglial cell (Bv2) imaging with BSR6 enabled the optical monitoring of intracellular oxidative events upon treatment with an oxidative stimulus (amyloid beta, Aβ) or the byproduct of oxidative stress (4-hydroxynonenal, HNE).

Abstract
Porphyran and its derivatives possess a variety of biological activities, such as ameliorations of oxidative stress, inflammation, hyperlipemia, and immune deficiencies. In this study, we evaluated the potential efficacy of porphyran-derived oligosaccharides from Porphyra yezoensis (PYOs) in alleviating nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and preliminarily clarified the underlying mechanism. NAFLD was induced by a high-fat diet for six months in C57BL/6J mice, followed by treatment with PYOs (100 or 300 mg/kg/d) for another six weeks. We found that PYOs reduced hepatic oxidative stress in mice with NAFLD, which plays a critical role in the occurrence and development of NAFLD. In addition, PYOs could markedly decrease lipid accumulation in liver by activating the IRS-1/AKT/GSK-3β signaling pathway and the AMPK signaling pathway in mice with NAFLD. PYOs also apparently relieved the hepatic fibrosis induced by oxidative stress via downregulation of TGF-β and its related proteins, so that liver injury was markedly alleviated. Furthermore, PYOs treatment relieved cecal microbiota dysbiosis (such as increasing the relative abundance of Akkermansia, while decreasing the Helicobacter abundance), which could alleviate oxidative stress, inflammation, and lipid metabolism, and protect the liver to a certain degree. In summary, PYOs treatment remarkably improved NAFLD via a specific molecular mechanism and reshaped the cecal microbiota.

Abstract
Plants are sessile in nature and they perceive and react to environmental stresses such as abiotic and biotic factors. These induce a change in the cellular homeostasis of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS are known to react with cellular components, including DNA, lipids, and proteins, and to interfere with hormone signaling via several post-translational modifications (PTMs). Protein carbonylation (PC) is a non-enzymatic and irreversible PTM induced by ROS. The non-enzymatic feature of the carbonylation reaction has slowed the efforts to identify functions regulated by PC in plants. Yet, in prokaryotic and animal cells, studies have shown the relevance of protein carbonylation as a signal transduction mechanism in physiological processes including hydrogen peroxide sensing, cell proliferation and survival, ferroptosis, and antioxidant response. In this review, we provide a detailed update on the most recent findings pertaining to the role of PC and its implications in various physiological processes in plants. By leveraging the progress made in bacteria and animals, we highlight the main challenges in studying the impacts of carbonylation on protein functions in vivo and the knowledge gap in plants. Inspired by the success stories in animal sciences, we then suggest a few approaches that could be undertaken to overcome these challenges in plant research. Overall, this review describes the state of protein carbonylation research in plants and proposes new research avenues on the link between protein carbonylation and plant redox biology.

Abstract
Vascular dementia (VaD) is a progressive cognitive impairment caused by a reduced blood supply to the brain. Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH) is one cause of VaD; it induces oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, and blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption, damaging several brain regions. Vitamin C plays a vital role in preventing oxidative stress-related diseases induced by reactive oxygen species, but it is easily oxidized and loses its antioxidant activity. To overcome this weakness, we have developed a vitamin C/DNA aptamer complex (NXP031) that increases vitamin C's antioxidant efficacy. Aptamers are short single-stranded nucleic acid polymers (DNA or RNA) that can interact with their corresponding target with high affinity. We established an animal model of VaD by permanent bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (BCCAO) in 12 week old Wistar rats. Twelve weeks after BCCAO, we injected NXP031 into the rats intraperitoneally for two weeks at moderate (200 mg/4 mg/kg) and high concentrations (200 mg/20 mg/kg). NXP031 administration alleviates cognitive impairment, microglial activity, and oxidative stress after CCH. NXP031 increased the expression of basal lamina (laminin), endothelial cell (RECA-1, PECAM-1), and pericyte (PDGFRβ); these markers maintain the BBB integrity. We found that NXP031 administration activated the Nrf2-ARE pathway and increased the expression of SOD-1 and GSTO1/2. These results suggest that this new aptamer complex, NXP031, could be a therapeutic intervention in CCH-induced VaD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lichen planus (LP) is a mucocutaneous T-cell mediated disorder of unknown etiology. There is growing evidence that oxidative stress is an important player in the pathogenesis of LP. Therefore, we have investigated oxidative stress markers in LP and the influence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, a frequently associated condition, on oxidative stress in LP patients. METHOD We have determined the serum levels of 4- hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) and symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA), as markers of oxidative stress, and total antioxidant capacity (TAC), as a marker of the antioxidant defence, in 4 groups: group A - HCV positive patients with LP (n=12), group B - HCV positive patients without LP (n=12), group C - HCV negative patients with LP (n=31) and group D - control group (n=26). RESULTS In LP patients, we have identified an increased level of lipid peroxidation (4-HNE - group A - 8.41±1.11 µg/mL, group B - 7.97±2.17 µg/mL, group C - 7.81±1.96 µg/mL and group D - 6.15±1.17 µg/mL) and alterations in arginine methylation (SDMA - group A - 1.10±0.24 µmol/L, group B - 1.03±0.16 µmol/L, group C - 0.84±0.19 µmol/L and group D - 0.50±0.06 µmol/L) associated with a diminished antioxidant defence (TAC - group A - 234,50±49,96, µmol/L group B - 255,83±41,41 µmol/L, group C - 269,83±43,33 µmol/L and group D - 316,46 ±29,33 µmol/L), processes augmented by the association with HCV infection. CONCLUSION There is an imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants in patients with LP, an imbalance that is augmented by the presence of HCV infection. SDMA could be regarded as a novel biomarker of oxidative stress among these patients. To the best of our knowledge this is the first study to investigate the influence of HCV infection on oxidative stress in LP patients.

Overview of the Neuroprotective Effects of the MAO-Inhibiting Antidepressant Phenelzine. Cell Mol Neurobiol 2021; 42:225-242. [PMID: 33839994 PMCID: PMC8732914 DOI: 10.1007/s10571-021-01078-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2020] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Phenelzine (PLZ) is a monoamine oxidase (MAO)-inhibiting antidepressant with anxiolytic properties. This multifaceted drug has a number of pharmacological and neurochemical effects in addition to inhibition of MAO, and findings on these effects have contributed to a body of evidence indicating that PLZ also has neuroprotective/neurorescue properties. These attributes are reviewed in this paper and include catabolism to the active metabolite β-phenylethylidenehydrazine (PEH) and effects of PLZ and PEH on the GABA-glutamate balance in brain, sequestration of reactive aldehydes, and inhibition of primary amine oxidase. Also discussed are the encouraging findings of the effects of PLZ in animal models of stroke, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, and multiple sclerosis, as well other actions such as reduction of nitrative stress, reduction of the effects of a toxin on dopaminergic neurons, potential anticonvulsant actions, and effects on brain-derived neurotrophic factor, neural cell adhesion molecules, an anti-apoptotic factor, and brain levels of ornithine and N-acetylamino acids.

Abstract
Lipid oxidation and the resulting volatile organic compounds are the main reasons for a loss of food quality. In addition to typical compounds, such as alkanes, aldehydes and alcohols, methyl ketones like heptan-2-one, are repeatedly described as aroma-active substances in various foods. However, it is not yet clear from which precursors methyl ketones are formed and what influence amino compounds have on the formation mechanism. In this study, the formation of methyl ketones in selected food-relevant fats and oils, as well as in model systems with linoleic acid or pure secondary degradation products (alka-2,4-dienals, alken-2-als, hexanal, and 2-butyloct-2-enal), has been investigated. Elevated temperatures were chosen for simulating processing conditions such as baking, frying, or deep-frying. Up to seven methyl ketones in milk fat, vegetable oils, and selected model systems have been determined using static headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). This study showed that methyl ketones are tertiary lipid oxidation products, as they are derived from secondary degradation products such as deca-2,4-dienal and oct-2-enal. The study further showed that the position of the double bond in the precursor compound determines the chain length of the methyl ketone and that amino compounds promote the formation of methyl ketones to a different degree. These compounds influence the profile of the products formed. As food naturally contains lipids as well as amino compounds, the proposed pathways are relevant for the formation of aroma-active methyl ketones in food.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE TF (Tissue factor) plays a key role in hemostasis, but an aberrant expression of TF leads to thrombosis. The objective of the present study is to investigate the effect of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), the most stable and major oxidant produced in various disease conditions, on the release of TF+ microvesicles into the circulation, identify the source of TF+ microvesicles origin, and assess their effect on intravascular coagulation and inflammation. Approach and Results: C57BL/6J mice were administered with HNE intraperitoneally, and the release of TF+ microvesicles into circulation was evaluated using coagulation assays and nanoparticle tracking analysis. Various cell-specific markers were used to identify the cellular source of TF+ microvesicles. Vascular permeability was analyzed by the extravasation of Evans blue dye or fluorescein dextran. HNE administration to mice markedly increased the levels of TF+ microvesicles and thrombin generation in the circulation. HNE administration also increased the number of neutrophils in the lungs and elevated the levels of inflammatory cytokines in plasma. Administration of an anti-TF antibody blocked not only HNE-induced thrombin generation but also HNE-induced inflammation. Confocal microscopy and immunoblotting studies showed that HNE does not induce TF expression either in vascular endothelium or circulating monocytes. Microvesicles harvested from HNE-administered mice stained positively with CD248 and α-smooth muscle actin, the markers that are specific to perivascular cells. HNE was found to destabilize endothelial cell barrier integrity. CONCLUSIONS HNE promotes the release of TF+ microvesicles from perivascular cells into the circulation. HNE-induced increased TF activity contributes to intravascular coagulation and inflammation.

Abstract
The transcription factor NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a central regulator of cellular antioxidant and detoxification response. The association between Nrf2 activity and iron-related oxidative stress in neurodegenerative diseases has been studied, and Nrf2 was found to transcriptionally regulate the expression of iron transporters and ferroptosis-related factors. However, the role of Nrf2 in age-related motor dysfunction and its link to iron metabolism dysregulation in brain have not been fully elucidated. In this study, with different ages of Nrf2 knockout (KO) and wild type (WT) mice, we investigated the effects of Nrf2 deficiency on brain oxidative stress, iron metabolism and the motor coordination ability of mice. In contrast to the predicted neuroprotective role of Nrf2 in oxidative stress-related diseases, we found that Nrf2 KO remarkably improved the motor coordination of aged mice, which was associated with the reduced ROS level and decreased apoptosis of dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra (SN) of 18-month-old Nrf2 KO mice. With high-iron and Parkinson's disease (PD) mouse models, we revealed that Nrf2 KO prevented the deposition of brain iron, particularly in SN and striatum, which may subsequently delay motor dysfunction in aged mice. The regulation of Nrf2 KO on brain iron metabolism was likely mediated by decreasing the ferroportin 1 (FPN1) level on brain microvascular endothelial cells, thus hindering the process of iron entry into the brain. Nrf2 may be a potential therapeutic target in age-related motor dysfunction diseases for its role in regulating brain iron homeostasis.

Abstract
The combination of the scaffolds of the cholinesterase inhibitor huprine Y and the antioxidant capsaicin results in compounds with nanomolar potencies toward human acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) that retain or improve the antioxidant properties of capsaicin. Crystal structures of their complexes with AChE and BChE revealed the molecular basis for their high potency. Brain penetration was confirmed by biodistribution studies in C57BL6 mice, with one compound (5i) displaying better brain/plasma ratio than donepezil. Chronic treatment of 10 month-old APP/PS1 mice with 5i (2 mg/kg, i.p., 3 times per week, 4 weeks) rescued learning and memory impairments, as measured by three different behavioral tests, delayed the Alzheimer-like pathology progression, as suggested by a significantly reduced Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio in the hippocampus, improved basal synaptic efficacy, and significantly reduced hippocampal oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. Compound 5i emerges as an interesting anti-Alzheimer lead with beneficial effects on cognitive symptoms and on some underlying disease mechanisms.

Abstract
Being characterized by progressive and severe damage in neuronal cells, neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) are the major cause of disability and morbidity in the elderly, imposing a significant economic and social burden. As major components of the central nervous system, lipids play important roles in neural health and pathology. Disturbed lipid metabolism, particularly lipid peroxidation (LPO), is associated with the development of many NDDs, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), all of which show elevated levels of LPO products and LPO-modified proteins. Thus, the inhibition of neuronal oxidation might slow the progression and reduce the severity of NDD; natural antioxidants, such as polyphenols and antioxidant vitamins, seem to be the most promising agents. Here, we summarize current literature data that were derived from human studies on the effect of natural polyphenols and vitamins A, C, and E supplementation in patients with AD, PD, and ALS. Although these compounds may reduce the severity and slow the progression of NDD, research gaps remain in antioxidants supplementation in AD, PD, and ALS patients, which indicates that further human studies applying antioxidant supplementation in different forms of NDDs are urgently needed.
