[PMID: 34205998 PMCID: PMC8228183 DOI: 10.3390/antiox10060890] [Citation(s) in RCA: 227] [Impact Index Per Article: 75.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2021] [Revised: 05/21/2021] [Accepted: 05/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
The reactive oxygen species (ROS)-producing enzyme NADPH oxidase (NOX) was first identified in the membrane of phagocytic cells. For many years, its only known role was in immune defense, where its ROS production leads to the destruction of pathogens by the immune cells. NOX from phagocytes catalyzes, via one-electron trans-membrane transfer to molecular oxygen, the production of the superoxide anion. Over the years, six human homologs of the catalytic subunit of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase were found: NOX1, NOX3, NOX4, NOX5, DUOX1, and DUOX2. Together with the NOX2/gp91phox component present in the phagocyte NADPH oxidase assembly itself, the homologs are now referred to as the NOX family of NADPH oxidases. NOX are complex multidomain proteins with varying requirements for assembly with combinations of other proteins for activity. The recent structural insights acquired on both prokaryotic and eukaryotic NOX open new perspectives for the understanding of the molecular mechanisms inherent to NOX regulation and ROS production (superoxide or hydrogen peroxide). This new structural information will certainly inform new investigations of human disease. As specialized ROS producers, NOX enzymes participate in numerous crucial physiological processes, including host defense, the post-translational processing of proteins, cellular signaling, regulation of gene expression, and cell differentiation. These diversities of physiological context will be discussed in this review. We also discuss NOX misregulation, which can contribute to a wide range of severe pathologies, such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, diabetic nephropathy, lung fibrosis, cancer, or neurodegenerative diseases, giving this family of membrane proteins a strong therapeutic interest.

Abstract
Oxidative stress, an alteration in the balance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and antioxidant buffering capacity, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiometabolic disorders (CMD). At physiological levels, ROS functions as signalling mediators, regulates various physiological functions such as the growth, proliferation, and migration endothelial cells (EC) and smooth muscle cells (SMC); formation and development of new blood vessels; EC and SMC regulated death; vascular tone; host defence; and genomic stability. However, at excessive levels, it causes a deviation in the redox state, mediates the development of CMD. Multiple mechanisms account for the rise in the production of free radicals in the heart. These include mitochondrial dysfunction and uncoupling, increased fatty acid oxidation, exaggerated activity of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NOX), reduced antioxidant capacity, and cardiac metabolic memory. The purpose of this study is to discuss the link between oxidative stress and the aetiopathogenesis of CMD and highlight associated mechanisms. Oxidative stress plays a vital role in the development of obesity and dyslipidaemia, insulin resistance and diabetes, hypertension via various mechanisms associated with ROS-led inflammatory response and endothelial dysfunction.

Abstract
Blood flow assessment employing Doppler techniques is a useful procedure in pregnancy evaluation, as it may predict pregnancy disorders coursing with increased uterine vascular impedance, as pre-eclampsia. While the local causes are unknown, emphasis has been put on reactive oxygen species (ROS) excessive production. As NADPH oxidase (NOX) is a ROS generator, it is hypothesized that combining Doppler assessment with NOX activity might provide useful knowledge on placental bed disorders underlying mechanisms. A prospective longitudinal study was performed in 19 normal course, singleton pregnancies. Fetal aortic isthmus (AoI) and maternal uterine arteries (UtA) pulsatility index (PI) were recorded at two time points: 20-22 and 40-41 weeks, just before elective Cesarean section. In addition, placenta and placental bed biopsies were performed immediately after fetal extraction. NOX activity was evaluated using a dihydroethidium-based fluorescence method and associations to PI values were studied with Spearman correlations. A clustering of pregnancies coursing with higher and lower PI values was shown, which correlated strongly with placental bed NOX activity, but less consistently with placental tissue. The study provides evidence favoring that placental bed NOX activity parallels UtA PI enhancement and suggests that an excess in oxidation underlies the development of pregnancy disorders coursing with enhanced UtA impedance.

Abstract
Background Calcium overload has been implicated as a critical event in glutamate excitotoxicity associated neurodegeneration. Recently, zinc accumulation and its neurotoxic role similar to calcium has been proposed. Earlier, we reported that free chelatable zinc released during hypobaric hypoxia mediates neuronal damage and memory impairment. The molecular mechanism behind hypobaric hypoxia mediated neuronal damage is obscure. The role of free zinc in such neuropathological condition has not been elucidated. In the present study, we investigated the underlying role of free chelatable zinc in hypobaric hypoxia-induced neuronal inflammation and apoptosis resulting in hippocampal damage. Methods Adult male Balb/c mice were exposed to hypobaric hypoxia and treated with saline or Ca2EDTA (1.25 mM/kg i.p) daily for four days. The effects of Ca2EDTA on apoptosis (caspases activity and DNA fragmentation), pro-inflammatory markers (iNOS, TNF-α and COX-2), NADPH oxidase activity, poly(ADP ribose) polymerase (PARP) activity and expressions of Bax, Bcl-2, HIF-1α, metallothionein-3, ZnT-1 and ZIP-6 were examined in the hippocampal region of brain. Results Hypobaric hypoxia resulted in increased expression of metallothionein-3 and zinc transporters (ZnT-1 and ZIP-6). Hypobaric hypoxia elicited an oxidative stress and inflammatory response characterized by elevated NADPH oxidase activity and up-regulation of iNOS, COX-2 and TNF-α. Furthermore, hypobaric hypoxia induced HIF-1α protein expression, PARP activation and apoptosis in the hippocampus. Administration of Ca2EDTA significantly attenuated the hypobaric hypoxia induced oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis in the hippocampus. Conclusion We propose that hypobaric hypoxia/reperfusion instigates free chelatable zinc imbalance in brain associated with neuroinflammation and neuronal apoptosis. Therefore, zinc chelating strategies which block zinc mediated neuronal damage linked with cerebral hypoxia and other neurodegenerative conditions can be designed in future.

Abstract
It has become increasingly clear that the accumulation of proteins in specific regions of the plasma membrane can facilitate cellular communication. These regions, termed signaling microdomains, are found throughout the blood vessel wall where cellular communication, both within and between cell types, must be tightly regulated to maintain proper vascular function. We will define a cellular signaling microdomain and apply this definition to the plethora of means by which cellular communication has been hypothesized to occur in the blood vessel wall. To that end, we make a case for three broad areas of cellular communication where signaling microdomains could play an important role: 1) paracrine release of free radicals and gaseous molecules such as nitric oxide and reactive oxygen species; 2) role of ion channels including gap junctions and potassium channels, especially those associated with the endothelium-derived hyperpolarization mediated signaling, and lastly, 3) mechanism of exocytosis that has considerable oversight by signaling microdomains, especially those associated with the release of von Willebrand factor. When summed, we believe that it is clear that the organization and regulation of signaling microdomains is an essential component to vessel wall function.

Abstract
Activation of NAD(P)H oxidase has been reported to produce superoxide (O(2)(•-)) extracellularly as an autocrine/paracrine regulator or intracellularly as a signaling messenger in a variety of mammalian cells. However, it remains unknown how the activity of NAD(P)H oxidase is regulated in arterial myocytes. Recently, CD38-associated ADP-ribosylcyclase has been reported to use an NAD(P)H oxidase product, NAD(+) or NADP(+), to produce cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) or nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate, which mediates intracellular Ca(2+) signaling. This study was designed to test a hypothesis that the CD38/cADPR pathway as a downstream event exerts feedback regulatory action on the NAD(P)H oxidase activity in production of extra- or intracellular O(2)(•-) in mouse coronary arterial myocytes (CAMs). By fluorescence microscopic imaging, we simultaneously monitored extra- and intracellular O(2)(•-) production in wild-type (CD38(+/+)) and CD38 knockout (CD38(-/-)) CAMs in response to oxotremorine (OXO), a muscarinic type 1 receptor agonist. It was found that CD38 deficiency prevented OXO-induced intracellular but not extracellular O(2)(•-) production in CAMs. Consistently, the OXO-induced intracellular O(2)(•-) production was markedly inhibited by CD38 shRNA or the CD38 inhibitor nicotinamide in CD38(+/+) CAMs. Further, Nox4 siRNA inhibited OXO-induced intracellular but not extracellular O(2)(•-) production, whereas Nox1 siRNA attenuated both intracellular and extracellular O(2)(•-) production in CD38(+/+) CAMs. Direct delivery of exogenous cADPR into CAMs markedly elevated intracellular Ca(2+) and O(2)(•-) production in CD38(-/-) CAMs. Functionally, CD38 deficiency or Nox1 siRNA and Nox4 siRNA prevented OXO-induced contraction in isolated perfused coronary arteries in CD38 WT mice. These results provide direct evidence that the CD38/cADPR pathway is an important controller of Nox4-mediated intracellular O(2)(•-) production and that CD38-dependent intracellular O(2)(•-) production is augmented in an autocrine manner by CD38-independent Nox1-derived extracellular O(2)(•-) production in CAMs.

Abstract
Lipid rafts, the sphingolipid and cholesterol-enriched membrane microdomains, are able to form different membrane macrodomains or platforms upon stimulations, including redox signaling platforms, which serve as a critical signaling mechanism to mediate or regulate cellular activities or functions. In particular, this raft platform formation provides an important driving force for the assembling of NADPH oxidase subunits and the recruitment of other related receptors, effectors, and regulatory components, resulting, in turn, in the activation of NADPH oxidase and downstream redox regulation of cell functions. This comprehensive review attempts to summarize all basic and advanced information about the formation, regulation, and functions of lipid raft redox signaling platforms as well as their physiological and pathophysiological relevance. Several molecular mechanisms involving the formation of lipid raft redox signaling platforms and the related therapeutic strategies targeting them are discussed. It is hoped that all information and thoughts included in this review could provide more comprehensive insights into the understanding of lipid raft redox signaling, in particular, of their molecular mechanisms, spatial-temporal regulations, and physiological, pathophysiological relevances to human health and diseases.

Abstract
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway and a major source of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate reduced (NADPH), which regulates numerous enzymatic (including glutathione reductase and NADPH oxidase that, respectively, generates reduced glutathione and reactive oxygen species) reactions involved in various cellular actions, yet its physiological function is seldom investigated. We, however, recently showed that inhibiting G6PD causes precontracted coronary artery (CA) to relax in an endothelium-derived relaxing factor- and second messenger-independent manner. Here we assessed the role of G6PD in regulating CA contractility. Treating bovine CAs for 20 min with potassium chloride (KCl; 30 mM), amphotericin B (50 μM), or U46619 (100 nM) significantly (p < 0.05) increased both G6PD activity and glucose flux through the pentose phosphate pathway. The effect was Ca(2+) independent, and there was a corresponding increase in protein kinase C (PKC) activity. Activation of G6PD by KCl was blocked by the PKCδ inhibitor rottlerin (10 μM) or by knocking down PKCδ expression using siRNA. Phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate (10 μM), a PKC activator, significantly increased G6PD phosphorylation and activity, whereas single (S210A, T266A) and double (S210A/T266A) mutations at sites flanking the G6PD active site significantly inhibited phosphorylation, shifted the isoelectric point, and reduced enzyme activity. Knocking down G6PD decreased NADPH and reactive oxygen species generation, and reduced KCl-evoked increases in [Ca(2+)](i) and myosin light chain phosphorylation, thereby reducing CA contractility. Similarly, aortas from G6PD-deficient mice developed less KCl/phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate-evoked force than those from their wild-type littermates. Conversely, overexpression of G6PD augmented KCl-evoked increases in [Ca(2+)](i), thereby augmenting CA contraction. Our findings demonstrate that G6PD activity and NADPH is increased in activated CA in a PKCδ-dependent manner and that G6PD modulates Ca(2+) entry and CA contractions evoked by membrane depolarization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reactive oxygen species (ROS) were shown to mediate aberrant contractility in hypertension, yet the physiological roles of ROS in vascular smooth muscle contraction have remained elusive. This study aimed to examine whether ROS regulate alpha1-adrenoceptor-activated contraction by altering myosin phosphatase activities. METHODS Using endothelium-denuded rat tail artery (RTA) strips, effects of anti-oxidants on isometric force, ROS production, phosphorylation of the 20-kDa myosin light chain (MLC20), and myosin phosphatase stimulated by alpha1-adrenoceptor agonist phenylephrine were examined. RESULTS An antioxidant, N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), and two NADPH oxidase inhibitors, apocynin and VAS2870, dose-dependently inhibited contraction activated by phenylephrine. Phenylephrine stimulated superoxide anion production that was diminished by the pretreatment of apocynin, VAS2870, superoxide scavenger tiron or mitochondria inhibitor rotenone, but not by xanthine oxidase inhibitor allopurinol or cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin. Concurrently, NADPH oxidase activity in RTA homogenates increased within 1 min upon phenylephrine stimulation, sustained for 10 min, and was abolished by the co-treatment with apocynin, but not allopurinol or rotenone. Phenylephrine-induced MLC20 phosphorylation was dose-dependently decreased by apocynin. Furthermore, apocynin inhibited phenylephrine-stimulated RhoA translocation to plasma membrane and phosphorylation of both myosin phosphatase regulatory subunit MYPT1Thr855 and myosin phosphatase inhibitor CPI-17Thr38. CONCLUSIONS ROS, probably derived from NADPH oxidase and mitochondria, partially regulate alpha1-adrenoceptor-activated smooth muscle contraction by altering myosin phosphatase-mediated MLC20 phosphorylation through both RhoA/Rho kinase- and CPI-17-dependent pathways.

Abstract
The NADPH oxidase family of enzymes has emerged as a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that is important in diverse cellular functions including anti-microbial defence, inflammation and redox signaling. Of the five known NADPH oxidase isoforms, several are expressed in cardiovascular cells where they are involved in physiological and pathological processes such as the regulation of vascular tone, cell growth, migration, proliferation, hypertrophy, apoptosis and matrix deposition. This article reviews current knowledge regarding the role of NADPH oxidases in cardiomyocyte function in health and disease.

Abstract
Mitochondria form junctions with the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (SR/ER), which support signal transduction and biosynthetic pathways and affect organellar distribution. Recently, these junctions have received attention because of their pivotal role in mediating calcium signal propagation to the mitochondria, which is important for both ATP production and mitochondrial cell death. Many of the SR/ER-mitochondrial calcium transporters and signaling proteins are sensitive to redox regulation and are directly exposed to the reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced in the mitochondria and SR/ER. Although ROS has been emerging as a novel signaling entity, the redox signaling of the SR/ER-mitochondrial interface is yet to be elucidated. We describe here possible mechanisms of the mutual interaction between local Ca(2+) and ROS signaling in the control of SR/ER-mitochondrial function.

Abstract
Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is a potent intracellular Ca2+ signalling second messenger, but the mechanism of NAADP-induced Ca2+ release is still poorly understood. The present study tested the hypothesis that NAADP induces Ca2+ release from the lysosomal store via a TRP-ML1 (transient receptor potential-mucolipin 1)-mediated Ca2+ release channel in coronary arterial myocytes (CAMs). RT-PCR and Western blot analyses demonstrated that TRP-ML1 was present in CAMs, and fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) detection revealed that the TRP-ML1 was closely associated with some lysosomal proteins in these CAMs. ET-1, a well-known NAADP stimulator, was found to induce a local Ca2+ burst from lysosomes followed by a global Ca2+ release. This lysosome-associated Ca2+ release was significantly inhibited in the TRP-ML1 siRNA pre-treated CAMs by 46.8 ± 12.6% in the local Ca2+ burst and 73.3 ± 14.9% in the global Ca2+ wave. In the reconstituted lysosomal channels from CAMs, NAADP activated Ca2+ release channels at concentrations of 1–1000 nM, but neither activators (1 μM IP3, 5 μM Rya) nor blockers (100 μM 2-APB, 50 μM Rya) of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release channels had effect on the channel activity. Moreover, TRP-ML1 gene silencing reduced this NAADP-sensitive Ca2+ release channel activity in lysosomes by 71.5 ± 18.5%. Immunoprecipitation or blockade of TRP-ML1 by anti-TRP-ML1 antibodies almost abolished NAADP-induced activation of lysosomal Ca2+ channels (to 14.0 ± 4.4% of control). These results for the first time provide direct evidence that an NAADP-sensitive Ca2+ release channel is characteristic of TRP-ML1 channels.

Abstract
It has been well known for >100 years that systemic blood vessels dilate in response to decreases in oxygen tension (hypoxia; low PO2), and this response appears to be critical to supply blood to the stressed organ. Conversely, pulmonary vessels constrict to a decrease in alveolar PO2 to maintain a balance in the ventilation-to-perfusion ratio. Currently, although little question exists that the PO2 affects vascular reactivity and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) act as oxygen sensors, the molecular mechanisms involved in modulating the vascular reactivity are still not clearly understood. Many laboratories, including ours, have suggested that the intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i), which regulates vasomotor function, is controlled by free radicals and redox signaling, including NAD(P)H and glutathione (GSH) redox. In this review article, therefore, we discuss the implications of redox and oxidant alterations seen in pulmonary and systemic hypertension, and how key targets that control [Ca2+]i, such as ion channels, Ca2+ release from internal stores and uptake by the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and the Ca2+ sensitivity to the myofilaments, are regulated by changes in intracellular redox and oxidants associated with vascular PO2sensing in physiologic or pathophysiologic conditions.

Local production of O2- by NAD(P)H oxidase in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of coronary arterial myocytes: cADPR-mediated Ca2+ regulation. Cell Signal 2007; 20:637-44. [PMID: 18207366 DOI: 10.1016/j.cellsig.2007.11.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2007] [Revised: 11/21/2007] [Accepted: 11/22/2007] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
The present study was designed to determine whether the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) could locally produce superoxide (O2-) via NAD(P)H oxidase (NOX) in coronary arterial myocytes (CAMs) and to address whether cADPR-RyR/Ca2+ signaling pathway regulates this local O2- production from the SR. Using confocal microscopic imaging analysis in intact single CAMs, a cell-permeable indicator CM-H2DCFDA for dynamic changes in intracellular ROS (in green color) and a highly selective ER-Tracker Red dye for tracking of the SR were found co-localized. A quantitative analysis based on the intensity of different spectra demonstrated a local O2- production derived from the SR. M(1)-receptor agonist, oxotremorine (Oxo) and a Ca2+ ionophore, A23187, time-dependently increased this O2- production colocalized with the SR. NOX inhibitors, diphenylene iodonium (DPI) and apocynin (Apo), or superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase, and Nox4 (a major intracellular NOX subunit) siRNA all substantially blocked this local production of O2-, demonstrating an involvement of NOX. This SR-derived O2- production was also abolished by the inhibitors of cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR)-mediated Ca2+ signaling, such as nicotinamide (Nicot, 6 mM), ryanodine (Rya, 50 muM) or 8-Br-cADPR (30 microM). However, IP3 antagonist, 2-APB (50 microM) had no effect. In CAMs transfected with siRNA of ADP-ribosyl cyclase or RyR, this SR O2- production was attenuated. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectromic assay in purified SR also demonstrated the production of O2- that was dependent on NOX activity and Ca2+ concentrations. These results provide direct evidence that O2- could be locally produced via NOX on the SR and that this local O2- producing system is controlled by cADPR-RyR/Ca2+ signaling pathway.

Abstract
Generation of ceramide in the plasma membrane, with the subsequent formation of large ceramide-enriched membrane platforms, serves signal transduction via receptors, but also nonreceptor-mediated activation of cells. Recent studies demonstrate that enzymes mediating release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) localize to membrane rafts, and the integrity of these rafts is required for cellular ROS release. The authors and others noted that in a feed-forward mechanism, ROS are able to stimulate ceramide-releasing enzymes, for instance, acid sphingomyelinase, resulting in the formation of ceramide-enriched membrane platforms that may mediate cellular activation initiated by oxidative stress.

Abstract
Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) is capable of inducing global Ca2+ increases via a lysosome-associated mechanism, but the mechanism mediating NAADP-induced intracellular Ca2+ release remains unclear. The present study reconstituted and characterized a lysosomal NAADP-sensitive Ca2+ release channel using purified lysosomes from rat liver. Furthermore, the identity of lysosomal NAADP-sensitive Ca2+ release channels was also investigated. It was found that NAADP activates lysosomal Ca2+ release channels at concentrations of 1 nM to 1 microM, but this activating effect of NAADP was significantly reduced when the concentrations used increased to 10 or 100 microM. Either activators or blockers of Ca2+ release channels on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) had no effect on the activity of these NAADP-activated Ca2+ release channels. Interestingly, the activity of this lysosomal NAADP-sensitive Ca2+ release channel increased when the pH in cis solution decreased, but it could not be inhibited by a lysosomal H+-ATPase antagonist, bafilomycin A1. However, the activity of this channel was significantly inhibited by plasma membrane L-type Ca2+ channel blockers such as verapamil, diltiazem, and nifedipine, or the nonselective Ca2+,Na+ channel blocker, amiloride. In addition, blockade of TRP-ML1 (transient receptor potential-mucolipin 1) protein by anti-TRP-ML1 antibody markedly attenuated NAADP-induced activation of these lysosomal Ca2+ channels. These results for the first time provide direct evidence that a NAADP-sensitive Ca2+ release channel is present in the lysosome of native liver cells and that this channel is associated with TRP-ML1, which is different from ER/SR Ca2+ release channels.

Abstract
For a long time, superoxide generation by an NADPH oxidase was considered as an oddity only found in professional phagocytes. Over the last years, six homologs of the cytochrome subunit of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase were found: NOX1, NOX3, NOX4, NOX5, DUOX1, and DUOX2. Together with the phagocyte NADPH oxidase itself (NOX2/gp91(phox)), the homologs are now referred to as the NOX family of NADPH oxidases. These enzymes share the capacity to transport electrons across the plasma membrane and to generate superoxide and other downstream reactive oxygen species (ROS). Activation mechanisms and tissue distribution of the different members of the family are markedly different. The physiological functions of NOX family enzymes include host defense, posttranlational processing of proteins, cellular signaling, regulation of gene expression, and cell differentiation. NOX enzymes also contribute to a wide range of pathological processes. NOX deficiency may lead to immunosuppresion, lack of otoconogenesis, or hypothyroidism. Increased NOX activity also contributes to a large number or pathologies, in particular cardiovascular diseases and neurodegeneration. This review summarizes the current state of knowledge of the functions of NOX enzymes in physiology and pathology.

Abstract
The RyR (ryanodine receptor)/calcium release channel contains a number of highly reactive thiol groups that endow it with redox sensitivity. In general, oxidizing conditions favour channel opening, while reducing conditions have the opposite effect. Thiol modification affects the channel sensitivity to its principal effectors, Ca2+, Mg2+ and ATP, and alters RyR protein interactions. Here, we give a brief account of the major findings and prevailing views in the field.

Abstract
The phenomenon of calcium microdomains is firmly established in the field of subcellular physiology. These regions of localized, transient calcium increase are exemplified by the spontaneous 'sparks' released through the ryanodine receptor in myocytes, but include subplasmalemmal microdomains, focal calcium oscillations and microdomains enclosed within organelles, such as the endoplasmic reticulum, golgi and mitochondria. Increasing evidence suggests that oxidative stress regulates both the formation and disappearance of microdomains. Calcium release channels and transporters are all modulated by redox state, while several mechanisms that generate oxidative or nitrosative stress are regulated by calcium. Here, we discuss the evidence for the regulation of calcium microdomains by redox state, and, by way of example, demonstrate that the frequency of calcium sparks in cardiomyocytes is increased in response to oxidative stress. We consider the evidence for the existence of analogous microdomains of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and suggest that the refinement of imaging techniques for these species might lead to similar concepts. The interaction between Ca(2+) microdomains and proteins that modulate their formation results in a complex and dynamic, spatial signaling mechanism, which is likely to be broadly applicable to different cell types, adding new dimensions to the calcium signaling 'toolkit'.

Abstract
The present study tested the hypothesis that membrane-bound NAD(P)H oxidase in coronary arterial myocytes (CAMs) is capable of producing superoxide (O(2)(*-)) toward extracellular space to exert an autocrine- or paracrine-like action in these cells. Using a high-speed wavelength-switching fluorescent microscopic imaging technique, we simultaneously monitored the binding of dihydroethidium-oxidizing product to exogenous salmon testes DNA trapped outside CAMs and to nuclear DNA as indicators of extra- and intracellular O(2)(*-) production. It was found that a muscarinic agonist oxotremorine (OXO; 80 microM) increased O(2)(*-) levels more rapidly outside than inside CAMs. In the presence of superoxide dismutase (500 U/ml) plus catalase (400 U/ml) and NAD(P)H oxidase inhibitor diphenylene iodonium (50 microM) or apocynin (100 microM), these increases in extra- and intracellular O(2)(*-) levels were substantially abolished or attenuated. The O(2)(*-) increase outside CAMs was also confirmed by detecting oxidation of nitro blue tetrazolium and confocal microscopic localization of Matrigel-trapped OxyBURST H(2)HFF Green BSA staining around these cells. By electron spin resonance spectrometry, the extracellular accumulation of O(2)(*-) was demonstrated as a superoxide dismutase-sensitive component outside CAMs. Furthermore, RNA interference of NAD(P)H oxidase subunits Nox1 or p47 markedly blocked OXO-induced increases in both extra- and intracellular O(2)(*-) levels, whereas small inhibitory RNA of Nox4 only attenuated intracellular O(2)(*-) accumulation. These results suggest that Nox1 represents a major NAD(P)H oxidase isoform responsible for extracellular O(2)(*-) production. This rapid extracellular production of O(2)(*-) seems to be unique to OXO-induced M(1)-receptor activation, since ANG II-induced intra- and extracellular O(2)(*-) increases in parallel. It is concluded that the outward production of O(2)(*-) via NAD(P)H oxidase in CAMs may represent an important producing pattern for its autocrine or paracrine actions.
