Abstract
The ability of two iron(II) complexes, [(TpPh2)FeII(benzilate)] (1) and [(TpPh2)(FeII)2(NPP)3] (2) (TpPh2 = hydrotris(3,5-diphenylpyrazol-1-yl)borate, NPP-H = α-isonitrosopropiophenone), of a monoanionic facial N3 ligand in the O2-dependent oxidation of oximes is reported. The mononuclear complex 1 reacts with dioxygen to decarboxylate the iron-coordinated benzilate. The oximate-bridged dinuclear complex (2), which contains a high-spin (TpPh2)FeII unit and a low-spin iron(II)-oximate unit, activates dioxygen at the high-spin iron(II) center. Both the complexes exhibit the oxidative transformation of oximes to the corresponding carbonyl compounds with the incorporation of one oxygen atom from dioxygen. In the oxidation process, the oxime units are converted to nitric oxide (NO) or nitroxyl (HNO). The iron(II)-benzilate complex (1) reacts with oximes to afford HNO, whereas the iron(II)-oximate complex (2) generates NO. The results described here suggest that the oxidative transformation of oximes to NO/HNO follows different pathways depending upon the nature of co-ligand/reductant.Graphic abstract.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) increases the risk of morbidity and mortality after major surgery and transplantation. We investigated the effect of PKC-ε deficiency on AKI and ischemic allograft damage after kidney transplantation. PKC-ε-deficient and wild type (WT) control mice were subjected to 35 min of renal pedicle clamping to induce AKI. PKC-ε deficiency was associated with a marked improvement in survival and an attenuated loss of kidney function. Furthermore, functional MRI experiments revealed better renal perfusion in PKC-ε-deficient mice than in WT mice one day after IRI. Acute tubular necrosis and neutrophil infiltration were markedly reduced in PKC-ε-deficient mice. To determine whether this resistance to ischemia-reperfusion injury resulted from changes in local renal cells or infiltrating leukocytes, we studied a life-supporting renal transplant model of ischemic graft injury. We transplanted kidneys from H2b PKC-ε-deficient mice (129/SV) and their corresponding WT littermates into major histocompatibility complex-incompatible H2d recipients (BALB/c) and induced ischemic graft injury by prolonged cold ischemia time. Recipients of WT allografts developed severe renal failure and died within 10 days of transplantation. Recipients of PKC-ε-deficient allografts had better renal function and survival; they had less generation of ROS and upregulation of proinflammatory proteins (i.e., ICAM-1, inducible nitric oxide synthase, and TNF-α) and showed less tubular epithelial cell apoptosis and inflammation in their allografts. These data suggest that local renal PKC-ε expression mediates proapoptotic and proinflammatory signaling and that an inhibitor of PKC-ε signaling could be used to prevent hypoxia-induced AKI.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is especially deadly due to its recalcitrance to current therapies. One of the unique qualities of PDA that may contribute to this resistance is a striking plasticity of differentiation states starting at tumor formation and continuing throughout tumor progression, including metastasis. Here, we explore the earliest steps of tumor formation and neoplastic progression and how this results in a fascinating cellular heterogeneity that is probably critical for tumor survival and progression. We hypothesize that reinforcing differentiation pathways run awry or targeting morphologically and molecularly distinct tumor stem-like cells may hold promise for future treatments of this deadly disease.

Abstract
In spite of intensive research, the molecular basis of allograft and xenograft rejection still remains not fully understood. The acute rejection of an allograft is associated with the intragraft Th1 cytokine response, while tolerance of an allograft or xenograft rejection is accompanied by a higher production of the Th2 cytokines interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-10. Nevertheless, these cytokines are not the final regulatory and effector molecules mediating transplantation reactions. Data indicate that the functioning of common molecules with enzymatic activities, such are inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), arginase, heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) or indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), the bioavailability of their substrates (L-arginine, tryptophan, heme) and the cytotoxic and regulatory actions of their small gaseous products (NO, CO) can be the ultimate mechanisms responsible for effector or regulatory reactions. Using models of transplantation immunity and tolerance we show that T cell receptor-mediated recognition of allogeneic or xenogeneic antigens as well as the balance between immunity/tolerance induces distinct cytokine production profiles. The ratio between Th1 and Th2 cytokines efficiently regulates the expression of genes for common enzymes, such as iNOS, arginase, HO-1 and IDO. These enzymes may compete for substrates, such as L-arginine or tryptophan, and the final product of their activity are small molecules (NO, CO) displaying effector or regulatory functions of the immune system. Thus, it is suggested that in spite of the high immunological specificity of transplatation reaction, the ultimate players in regulatory and effector functions could be small and common molecules.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a multifunctional agent which serves as a key signaling molecule in physiological processes such as host defense, neuronal communication, and the regulation of vascular tone. Different polymorphic variations have been identified in the human NOS3 (eNOS) gene.The aim of the present study was to examine the association between polymorphisms of the NOS3 gene (G894T substitution within exon 7 and intron 4 VNTR polymorphism) and the development of delayed graft function as well as acute and chronic rejection.One hundred eighty-seven recipients of first renal transplants were included in the study. There were no significant associations between these polymorphisms and acute and chronic kidney allograft rejection. The intron 4 polymorphism was associated with delayed graft function after transplantation. The results of this study suggest that patients with the a allele of the eNOS intron 4 VNTR polymorphism may be predisposed to delayed graft function.

Role of peroxynitrite and recombinant human manganese superoxide dismutase in reducing ischemia-reperfusion renal tissue injury. Transplant Proc 2010; 41:3603-10. [PMID: 19917352 DOI: 10.1016/j.transproceed.2009.04.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2009] [Accepted: 04/13/2009] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND In an acute kidney transplant rejection rat model, we demonstrated that manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) activity was significantly reduced and MnSOD was nitrated by peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)), resulting in tissue injury. We examined whether tissue injury was reduced after external supplementation of recombinant human MnSOD in a rat renal ischemia-reperfusion injury model. METHODS Male Brown-Norway rats underwent dissection of the right kidney. The animals were divided into 3 groups. The controls had the left renal blood vessels clamped for 90 minutes to induce ischemia, followed by reperfusion for 16 hours. In the intraperitoneal administration group, MnSOD was administered 30 minutes before ischemia and immediately before reperfusion. In the sham group, neither ischemia nor reperfusion was performed. After reperfusion, blood was collected, the left kidney was dissected and renal function and tissue injury were evaluated. RESULTS Serum creatinine and K(+), blood urea nitrogen, and aspartate aminotransferase activity decreased significantly, whereas serum Na(+) and renal function improved in the MnSOD group compared with the control and sham groups. On hematoxylin and eosin staining, the histological score indicated that acute tubular necrosis was significantly reduced by MnSOD administration. Periodic acid-Schiff staining was absent in the nonadministration group, whereas it persisted in the MnSOD group. In the proximal renal tubules a large proportion of anti-nitrotyrosine staining was present before but absent after MnSOD administration. CONCLUSIONS MnSOD administration improved renal function and reduced tissue injury. It may also reduce tissue injury in acute kidney transplant rejection and other tissue injuries caused by similar molecular mechanisms.

Abstract
Shock wave lithotripsy (SWL)-induced renal damage appears to be multifactorial. Recent data indicated that the mechanism of renal tissue damage secondary to SWL is similar to that of ischemia reperfusion injury. Nuclear factor-kappa B (NFkappaB) and its target genes, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), have been demonstrated to play a very important role in a variety of cells or tissues ischemia reperfusion injuries. Thus in the present study, using an in vitro model MDCK cells, we investigated the role of NFkappaB and its target cytotoxic enzyme in shock wave-induced renal cellular damage. We also examined whether inhibition this pathway by pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) is contributed to alleviate SWL-caused cell damage. Suspensions of MDCK cells were placed in containers for shock wave exposure. Three groups of six containers each were examined: control group, no shock wave treatment and SWL group, which received 100 shocks at 18 kV; 3 SWL + PDTC group. PDTC were added to the suspensions before shock wave exposure. After shock wave 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 h, respectively, the cell supernatants were detected for the level of MDA and release of LDH. At post-shock wave 8 h, cells were harvested to detect the nuclear translocation of NFkappaBp65 by immunofluorescence staining. Degradation of IkappaB-a (an inhibitor protein of NFkappaB) and expression of iNOS and COX-2 were also examined by western blotting. Our results indicated that shock wave initiated the apparent activation of NFkappaB, which in turn induced high expression of iNOS and COX-2. Blocking degradation of IkappaB-a by PDTC was contributed to decrease the expression of iNOS. And the level of MDA and the release of LDH were also significantly reduced by using PDTC. However, the degree of COX-2 expression does not differ significantly between SWL and SWL + PDTC groups. Activation of NFkappaB and subsequent expression of its target cytotoxic enzyme have been demonstrated to be a potential and crucial mechanism in SWL-induced renal cell damage. Blocking this pathway by PDTC is contributed to protect against cellular damage from shock wave.
