Combined exposure to UV and PM affect skin oxinflammatory responses and it is prevented by antioxidant mix topical application: Evidences from clinical study. J Cosmet Dermatol 2024. [PMID: 38590207 DOI: 10.1111/jocd.16321] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2024] [Revised: 03/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/01/2024] [Indexed: 04/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Exposure to environmental stressors like particulate matter (PM) and ultraviolet radiation (UV) induces cutaneous oxidative stress and inflammation and leads to skin barrier dysfunction and premature aging. Metals like iron or copper are abundant in PM and are known to contribute to reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. AIMS Although it has been suggested that topical antioxidant may be able to help in preventing and/or reducing outdoor skin damage, limited clinical evidence under real-life exposure conditions have been reported. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the ability of a topical serum containing 15% ascorbic acid, 0.5% ferulic acid, and 1% tocopherol (CF Mix) to prevent oxinflammatory skin damage and premature aging induced by PM + UV in a human clinical trial. METHODS A 4-day single-blinded, clinical study was conducted on the back of 15 females (18-40 years old). During the 4 consecutive days, the back test zones were treated daily with or without the CF Mix, followed by with/without 2 h of PM and 5 min of UV daily exposure. RESULTS Application of the CF Mix prevented PM + UV-induced skin barrier perturbation (Involucrin and Loricrin), lipid peroxidation (4HNE), inflammatory markers (COX2, NLRP1, and AhR), and MMP9 activation. In addition, CF Mix was able to prevent Type I Collagen loss. CONCLUSION This is the first human study confirming the multipollutants cutaneous damage and suggesting the utility of a daily antioxidant topical application to prevent pollution induced skin damage.

Abstract
Organ development, homeostasis, and repair often rely on bidirectional, self-organized cell-niche interactions, through which cells select cell fate, such as stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. The niche contains multiplexed chemical and mechanical factors. How cells interpret niche structural information such as the 3D topology of organs and integrate with multiplexed mechano-chemical signals is an open and active research field. Among all the niche factors, reactive oxygen species (ROS) have recently gained growing interest. Once considered harmful, ROS are now recognized as an important niche factor in the regulation of tissue mechanics and topology through, for example, the HIF-YAP-Notch signaling pathways. These pathways are not only involved in the regulation of stem cell physiology but also associated with inflammation, neurological disorder, aging, tumorigenesis, and the regulation of the immune checkpoint molecule PD-L1. Positive feedback circuits have been identified in the interplay of ROS and HIF-YAP-Notch signaling, leading to the possibility that under aberrant conditions, self-organized, ROS-dependent physiological regulations can be switched to self-perpetuating dysregulation, making ROS a double-edged sword at the interface of stem cell physiology and tumorigenesis. In this review, we discuss the recent findings on how ROS and tissue mechanics affect YAP-HIF-Notch-PD-L1 signaling, hoping that the knowledge can be used to design strategies for stem cell-based and ROS-targeting therapy and tissue engineering.

Abstract
Air pollutants cause changes in iron homeostasis through: 1) a capacity of the pollutant, or a metabolite(s), to complex/chelate iron from pivotal sites in the cell or 2) an ability of the pollutant to displace iron from pivotal sites in the cell. Through either pathway of disruption in iron homeostasis, metal previously employed in essential cell processes is sequestered after air pollutant exposure. An absolute or functional cell iron deficiency results. If enough iron is lost or is otherwise not available within the cell, cell death ensues. However, prior to death, exposed cells will attempt to reverse the loss of requisite metal. This response of the cell includes increased expression of metal importers (e.g. divalent metal transporter 1). Oxidant generation after exposure to air pollutants includes superoxide production which functions in ferrireduction necessary for cell iron import. Activation of kinases and phosphatases and transcription factors and increased release of pro-inflammatory mediators also result from a cell iron deficiency, absolute or functional, after exposure to air pollutants. Finally, air pollutant exposure culminates in the development of inflammation and fibrosis which is a tissue response to the iron deficiency challenging cell survival. Following the response of increased expression of importers and ferrireduction, activation of kinases and phosphatases and transcription factors, release of pro-inflammatory mediators, and inflammation and fibrosis, cell iron is altered, and a new metal homeostasis is established. This new metal homeostasis includes increased total iron concentrations in cells with metal now at levels sufficient to meet requirements for continued function.

Abstract
Vanadium, a transition metal, ubiquitous in nature is known to have therapeutic effect as well as toxic effect. It is known to possess antidiabetic, antitumor and antiparasitic activity. However, on long term exposure, it produces neurotoxicity which may result in memory impairment. The possible mechanism known to cause neurotoxicity suggested is oxidative stress and inflammation of neuronal cells. The present review has focused on discussing the role of protein P38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and oxidative stress as possible targets to treat vanadium-induced neurotoxicity.

Abstract
All eukaryotic organisms require iron to function. Malfunctions within iron homeostasis have a range of physiological consequences, and can lead to the development of pathological conditions that can result in an excess of non-transferrin bound iron (NTBI). Despite extensive understanding of iron homeostasis, the links between the “macroscopic” transport of iron across biological barriers (cellular membranes) and the chemistry of redox changes that drive these processes still needs elucidating. This review draws conclusions from the current literature, and describes some of the underlying biophysical and biochemical processes that occur in iron homeostasis. By first taking a broad view of iron uptake within the gut and subsequent delivery to tissues, in addition to describing the transferrin and non-transferrin mediated components of these processes, we provide a base of knowledge from which we further explore NTBI uptake. We provide concise up-to-date information of the transplasma electron transport systems (tPMETSs) involved within NTBI uptake, and highlight how these systems are not only involved within NTBI uptake for detoxification but also may play a role within the reduction of metabolic stress through regeneration of intracellular NAD(P)H/NAD(P)+ levels. Furthermore, we illuminate the thermodynamics that governs iron transport, namely the redox potential cascade and electrochemical behavior of key components of the electron transport systems that facilitate the movement of electrons across the plasma membrane to the extracellular compartment. We also take account of kinetic changes that occur to transport iron into the cell, namely membrane dipole change and their consequent effects within membrane structure that act to facilitate transport of ions.

Abstract
Vanadium, atomic number 23, is a transition metal widely distributed in nature. It is a major contaminant of fossil fuels and is widely used in industry as catalysts, in welding, and making steel alloys. Over the years, vanadium compounds have been generating interests due to their use as therapeutic agents in the control of diabetes, tuberculosis, and some neoplasms. However, the toxicity of vanadium compounds is well documented in literature with occupational exposure of workers in vanadium allied industries, environmental pollution from combustion of fossil fuels and industrial exhausts receiving concerns as major sources of toxicity and a likely predisposing factor in the aetiopathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases. A lot has been done to understand the neurotoxic effects of vanadium, its mechanisms of action and possible antidotes. Sequel to our review of the subject in 2011, this present review is to detail the recent insights gained in vanadium neurotoxicity.

Abstract
Iron and ascorbate are vital cellular constituents in mammalian systems. The bulk-requirement for iron is during erythropoiesis leading to the generation of hemoglobin-containing erythrocytes. Additionally, both iron and ascorbate are required as co-factors in numerous metabolic reactions. Iron homeostasis is controlled at the level of uptake, rather than excretion. Accumulating evidence strongly suggests that in addition to the known ability of dietary ascorbate to enhance non-heme iron absorption in the gut, ascorbate regulates iron homeostasis. The involvement of ascorbate in dietary iron absorption extends beyond the direct chemical reduction of non-heme iron by dietary ascorbate. Among other activities, intra-enterocyte ascorbate appears to be involved in the provision of electrons to a family of trans-membrane redox enzymes, namely those of the cytochrome b561 class. These hemoproteins oxidize a pool of ascorbate on one side of the membrane in order to reduce an electron acceptor (e.g., non-heme iron) on the opposite side of the membrane. One member of this family, duodenal cytochrome b (DCYTB), may play an important role in ascorbate-dependent reduction of non-heme iron in the gut prior to uptake by ferrous-iron transporters. This review discusses the emerging relationship between cellular iron homeostasis, the emergent “IRP1-HIF2α axis”, DCYTB and ascorbate in relation to iron metabolism.

Abstract
Ascorbate is a cofactor in numerous metabolic reactions. Humans cannot synthesize ascorbate owing to inactivation of the gene encoding the enzyme l-gulono-γ-lactone oxidase, which is essential for ascorbate synthesis. Accumulating evidence strongly suggests that in addition to the known ability of dietary ascorbate to enhance nonheme iron absorption in the gut, ascorbate within mammalian systems can regulate cellular iron uptake and metabolism. Ascorbate modulates iron metabolism by stimulating ferritin synthesis, inhibiting lysosomal ferritin degradation, and decreasing cellular iron efflux. Furthermore, ascorbate cycling across the plasma membrane is responsible for ascorbate-stimulated iron uptake from low-molecular-weight iron-citrate complexes, which are prominent in the plasma of individuals with iron-overload disorders. Importantly, this iron-uptake pathway is of particular relevance to astrocyte brain iron metabolism and tissue iron loading in disorders such as hereditary hemochromatosis and β-thalassemia. Recent evidence also indicates that ascorbate is a novel modulator of the classical transferrin-iron uptake pathway, which provides almost all iron for cellular demands and erythropoiesis under physiological conditions. Ascorbate acts to stimulate transferrin-dependent iron uptake by an intracellular reductive mechanism, strongly suggesting that it may act to stimulate iron mobilization from the endosome. The ability of ascorbate to regulate transferrin iron uptake could help explain the metabolic defect that contributes to ascorbate-deficiency-induced anemia.

Abstract
Inhalation of particulate matter has presented a challenge to human health for thousands of years. The underlying mechanism for biological effect following particle exposure is incompletely understood. We tested the postulate that particle sequestration of cell and mitochondrial iron is a pivotal event mediating oxidant generation and biological effect. In vitro exposure of human bronchial epithelial cells to silica reduced intracellular iron, which resulted in increases in both the importer divalent metal transporter 1 expression and metal uptake. Diminished mitochondrial 57Fe concentrations following silica exposure confirmed particle sequestration of cell iron. Preincubation of cells with excess ferric ammonium citrate increased cell, nuclear, and mitochondrial metal concentrations and prevented significant iron loss from mitochondria following silica exposure. Cell and mitochondrial oxidant generation increased after silica incubation, but pretreatment with iron diminished this generation of reactive oxygen species. Silica exposure activated MAP kinases (ERK and p38) and altered the expression of transcription factors (nF-κB and NF-E2-related factor 2), proinflammatory cytokines (interleukin-8 and -6), and apoptotic proteins. All of these changes in indexes of biological effect were either diminished or inhibited by cell pretreatment with iron. Finally, percentage of neutrophils and total protein concentrations in an animal model instilled with silica were decreased by concurrent exposure to iron. We conclude that an initiating event in the response to particulate matter is a sequestration of cell and mitochondrial iron by endocytosed particle. The resultant oxidative stress and biological response after particle exposure are either diminished or inhibited by increasing the cell iron concentration.

Abstract
Iron is a crucial factor for life. However, it also has the potential to cause the formation of noxious free radicals. These double-edged sword characteristics demand a tight regulation of cellular iron metabolism. In this review, we discuss the various pathways of cellular iron uptake, cellular iron storage, and transport. Recent advances in understanding the reduction and uptake of non-transferrin-bound iron are discussed. We also discuss the recent progress in the understanding of transcriptional and translational regulation by iron. Furthermore, we discuss recent advances in the understanding of the regulation of cellular and systemic iron homeostasis and several key diseases resulting from iron deficiency and overload. We also discuss the knockout mice available for studying iron metabolism and the related human conditions.

Abstract
Trans-plasma membrane electron transport (t-PMET) has been established since the 1960s, but it has only been subject to more intensive research in the last decade. The discovery and characterization at the molecular level of its novel components has increased our understanding of how t-PMET regulates distinct cellular functions. This review will give an update on t-PMET, with particular emphasis on how its malfunction relates to some diseases, such as cancer, abnormal cell death, cardiovascular diseases, aging, obesity, neurodegenerative diseases, pulmonary fibrosis, asthma, and genetically linked pathologies. Understanding these relationships may provide novel therapeutic approaches for pathologies associated with unbalanced redox state.

Abstract
Excess apoptosis of endothelial cells (EC) plays crucial roles in the onset and progression of vasculopathy in diabetes mellitus. Anion exchanger-2 (AE2) might be involved in the vasculopathy. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms that AE2 mediated the apoptosis of EC. The purpose of this study was to explore the role of AE2 in the apoptosis of HUVECs induced by high glucose (HG) and its possible mechanisms. First, HUVECs were exposed to different glucose concentrations (5.5, 17.8, 35.6, 71.2 and 142.4 mmol/l, respectively, pH = 7.40) for different time points (12, 24, 48, 72, 120, and 168 h, respectively). Intracellular Cl(-) concentration ([Cl(-)]i), AE2 expression and the apoptosis were assayed. Then, 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS), Cl(-)-free media or specific RNA interference (RNAi) for AE2 was used to confirm whether AE2 could mediate the apoptosis induced by HG. Finally, the mechanisms of the AE2-mediated apoptosis were investigated by detecting mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP, DeltaPsim) openings, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and Caspase-3 activity. We found that HG upregulated the AE2 expression and activity, increased [Cl(-)]i and induced the apoptosis in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The apoptosis of HUVECs by HG was possibly mediated by AE2 through an mPTP-ROS-Caspase-3 dependent pathway. These findings suggested that AE2 was likely to be a glucose-sensitive transmembrane transporter and a novel potential therapeutic target for diabetic vasculopathy.

Abstract
As a result of a direct exchange with the external environment, the lungs are exposed to both iron and agents with a capacity to disrupt the homeostasis of this metal (e.g. particles). An increased availability of catalytically reactive iron can result from these exposures and, by generating an oxidative stress, this metal can contribute to tissue injury. By importing this Fe(3+) into cells for storage in a chemically less reactive form, the lower respiratory tract demonstrates an ability to mitigate both the oxidative stress presented by iron and its potential for tissue injury. This means that detoxification is accomplished by chemical reduction to Fe(2+) (e.g. by duodenal cytochrome b and other ferrireductases), iron import (e.g. by divalent metal transporter 1 and other transporters), and storage in ferritin. The metal can subsequently be exported from the cell (e.g. by ferroportin 1) in a less reactive state relative to that initially imported. Iron is then transported out of the lung via the mucociliary pathway or blood and lymphatic pathways to the reticuloendothelial system for long term storage. This coordinated handling of iron in the lung appears to be disrupted in several acute diseases on the lung including infections, acute respiratory distress syndrome, transfusion-related acute lung injury, and ischemia-reperfusion. Exposures to bleomycin, dusts and fibers, and paraquat similarly alter iron homeostasis in the lung to affect an oxidative stress. Finally, iron homeostasis is disrupted in numerous chronic lung diseases including pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, transplantation, cigarette smoking, and cystic fibrosis.

Abstract
K562 erythroleukemia cells import non-transferrin-bound iron (NTBI) by an incompletely understood process that requires initial iron reduction. The mechanism of NTBI ferrireduction remains unknown but probably involves transplasma membrane electron transport. We here provide evidence for a novel mechanism of NTBI reduction and uptake by K562 cells that utilizes transplasma membrane ascorbate cycling. Incubation of cells with dehydroascorbic acid, but not ascorbate, resulted in (i) accumulation of intracellular ascorbate that was blocked by the glucose transporter inhibitor, cytochalasin B, and (ii) subsequent release of micromolar concentrations of ascorbate into the external medium via a route that was sensitive to the anion channel inhibitor, 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate. Ascorbate-deficient control cells demonstrated low levels of ferric citrate reduction. However, incubation of the cells with dehydroascorbic acid resulted in a dose-dependent stimulation of both iron reduction and uptake from radiolabeled [(55)Fe]ferric citrate. This stimulation was abrogated by ascorbate oxidase treatment, suggesting dependence on direct chemical reduction by ascorbate. These results support a novel model of NTBI reduction and uptake by K562 cells in which uptake is preceded by reduction of iron by extracellular ascorbate, the latter of which is subsequently regenerated by transplasma membrane ascorbate cycling.

Abstract
Catalytically active iron in the lung causes oxidative stress and promotes microbial growth that can be limited by intracellular sequestration of iron within ferritin. Because cellular iron uptake requires membrane ferrireductase activity that in the gut can be provided by duodenal cytochrome b (Dcytb), we sought Dcytb in the lung to test the hypothesis that it contributes to epithelial iron regulation by reducing Fe3+ for cellular iron transport. Dcytb expression was found in respiratory epithelium in vitro and in vivo and was responsive to iron concentration. Iron transport was measured in human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy and was demonstrated to be partially inhibited in the presence of Dcytb-blocking antibody, suggesting that Dcytb reduces Fe3+ for cellular iron transport. A definite source of reducing equivalents for Dcytb was sought but not identified. We found no evidence that ascorbate was involved but did demonstrate that O2−· production decreased when Dcytb function was blocked. The presence of Dcytb in airway epithelial cells and its regulation by iron therefore may contribute to pulmonary cytoprotection.

Abstract
OXIDATIVE PULMONARY DAMAGE: The pathogenesis of pulmonary emphysema is incompletely understood. Nearly 90% of all patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases are smokers. Cigarette smoke is a rich source of oxidants. Oxidative stress increases oxidant generation, which cannot be neutralized with antioxidant defense mechanisms. Lipids, proteins and deoxyribonucleic acid are components of the cell that are most sensitive to oxidative damage. Oxygen radicals can modify amino acid side chains, form protein aggregates, cleave peptide bonds, and make proteins more susceptible to proteolytic degradation. It has been shown that neutrophils have a principal effector role in pulmonary tissue damage. Neutrophil elastase can damage air spaces by degrading elastin, and a variety of extracellular membrane proteins, proteoglycans, and glycoproteins. Neutrophil elastase can also stimulate inflammation by increasing interleukin-8 synthesis. Additionally, neutrophil elastase can activate or inactivate inhibitors of neutrophil collagenase, and secretory leukoprotease proteinase inhibitor. Apart from neutrophils, oxidative stress causes activation of other phagocytes and severe inflammatory response ensues. LIPID PEROXILATION AND PULMONARY EMPHYSEMA: Except protein oxidation and lipid peroxidation, oxidants may disturb signal transmission in the cells, as well as normal cell membrane function and function of organelles. Modified structure of deoxyribonucleic acid may cause mutations, which in absence of repairation enzyme activity lead to cell injury. IRON AND OXIDATIVE STRESS: Iron metabolism is also important in the development of pulmonary emphysema due to its role in production of some oxidants.

Abstract
Lung injury after asbestos exposure is associated with an oxidative stress that is catalyzed by iron in the fiber matrix, complexed to the surface, or both. We tested the hypothesis that the cellular response to asbestos includes the transport and sequestration of this iron through (1) generation of superoxide for ferrireduction, (2) up-regulation of divalent metal transporter-1 (DMT1) for intracellular transport of Fe2+, and (3) increased production of cellular ferritin where the metal is stored in a catalytically less reactive state. BEAS-2B cells with normal and elevated Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD) expression were employed for in vitro investigations. After exposure of these cells to asbestos, we demonstrated by fluorescence methodology a significantly increased generation of SOD with ferrireductive capacity. Fiber exposure also increased DMT1 protein and mRNA expression in the BEAS-2B cells. Incubation with asbestos elevated cellular iron and ferritin concentrations, and these responses were diminished in cells with an enhanced expression of SOD. Finally, fiber exposure increased supernatant concentrations of interleukin 8, but this inflammatory mediator was actually increased in cells with elevated SOD expression. We conclude that the response of respiratory epithelial cells to asbestos includes oxidant-mediated mechanisms to sequester catalytically active iron associated with the fiber.

Abstract
Previous work suggests that superoxide mediates hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-induced constriction of isolated mouse coronary arteries (CA). To determine the source of superoxide overproduction during H/R we studied CA obtained from transgenic (Tg) mice overexpressing human CuZn-superoxide dismutase (SOD) and mice lacking gp91(phox) using an in vitro vascular ring bioassay. We found that under normoxic conditions CA isolated from wild type (wt) mice, CuZn-SOD Tg mice and gp91(phox) knock-out mice had similar contractile responses to U46619 and hypoxia and similar dilation responses to acetylcholine. In wt CA, 30 min of hypoxia (1% O(2)) followed by reoxygenation (16% O(2)) resulted in further coronary vasoconstriction (internal diameter from 105 +/- 11 to 84.5 +/- 17.9 microm), whereas this response was completely blocked in both CuZn-SOD Tg and gp91(phox) knock-out CA (104.3 +/- 10.5 to 120.7 +/- 14 microm and 143.3 +/- 15.3 to 172.7 +/- 12.5 microm, respectively, p < 0.01). Furthermore, we show that H/R enhances the generation of superoxide radicals in wt CA (25.8 +/- 0.7 relative light units per second (RLU/s)), whereas CuZn-SOD Tg CA (12.2 +/- 0.8 RLU/s, p < 0.01) and gp91(phox) CA (12.5 +/- 0.9 RLU/s, p < 0.01) show reduced levels. These results demonstrate that H/R-induced vasoconstriction is mediated by intracellular superoxide overproduction via endothelial NADPH oxidase gp91(phox). Therefore, increasing endogenous levels of CuZn-SOD in CA may provide a novel cardioprotective strategy for maintaining coronary perfusion under conditions of H/R.

Abstract
Iron is critical for many aspects of cellular function, but it can also generate reactive oxygen species that can damage biological macromolecules. To limit oxidative stress, iron acquisition and its distribution must be tightly regulated. In the lungs, which are continuously exposed to the atmosphere, the risk of oxidative damage is particularly high because of the high oxygen concentration and the presence of significant amounts of catalytically active iron in atmospheric particulates. An effective system of metal detoxification must exist to minimize the associated generation of oxidative stress in the lungs. Here we summarize the evidence that a number of specific proteins that control iron uptake in the gastrointestinal tract are also employed in the lung to transport iron into epithelial cells and sequester it in a catalytically inactive form in ferritin. Furthermore, these and other proteins facilitate ferritin release from lung cells to the epithelial and bronchial lining fluids for clearance by the mucociliary system or to the reticuloendothelial system for long-term storage of iron. These pathways seem to be the primary mechanism for control of oxidative stress presented by iron in the respiratory tract.
