Abstract
Polymeric nanocarriers (NCs) are efficient vehicles to prevent drug unspecific biodistribution and increase the drug amounts delivered to tumor tissues. However, some toxicological aspects of NCs still lack a comprehensive assessment, such as their effects on cellular processes that lead to toxicity. We evaluate the interaction of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) NCs prepared using dextran (Dex) and Pluronic®-F127 as stabilizing agents with myocardial cells (H9C2), breast adenocarcinoma cells (MCF-7) and macrophages (RAW 264.7) to address the effect of Dex in PLGA NC formulations. By an emulsion diffusion method, doxorubicin-loaded NCs were prepared with no Dex (PLGA-DOX), 1% (w/v) Dex (Dex1/PLGA-DOX) and 5% (w/v) Dex (Dex5/PLGA-DOX). Uptake analyses revealed a significant reduction in Dex5/PLGA-DOX NC uptake by H9C2 and MCF-7, as in the case of Dex1/PLGA-DOX NCs in the absence of in vitro protein corona, revealing an effect of dextran concentration on the formation of protein corona. RAW 264.7 cells presented a greater uptake of Dex5/PLGA-DOX NCs than the other NCs likely because of receptor mediated endocytosis, since C-type lectins like SIGN-R1, mannose receptors and scavenger receptor type 1 that are expressed in RAW 264.7 can mediate Dex uptake. Despite the lower uptake, Dex5/PLGA-DOX NCs promote the generation of reactive oxygen species and oxidative membrane damage in MCF-7 and H9C2 even though cellular metabolic activity assessed by MTT was comparable among all the NCs. Our results highlight the importance of an in-depth investigation of the NC-cell interaction considering additional mechanisms of damage apart from metabolic variations, as nanoparticle-induced damage is not limited to imbalance in metabolic processes, but also associated with other mechanisms, e.g., membrane and DNA damage.

Abstract
The application of nanoparticles in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been greatly increasing, due to their advantageous properties such as nanoscale dimension and tuneability. In this context, manganese (Mn2+)-based nanoparticles have been greatly investigated, due to their valuable use as a contrast agent, improving signal intensity and specificity in MRI (manganese-enhanced MRI, MEMRI). Additionally, Mn2+ can act as scavengers of reactive oxygen species (ROS), commonly present in the inflammatory processes of neurodegenerative diseases. The aim of the present study was to develop nanoreactors, which can be used as contrast-agent in MEMRI. Several blends of methacrylated gellan gum (GG-MA) and hyaluronic acid (HA) were embedded with different types of manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoparticles and further physico-chemically characterized. Dynamic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy, water uptake and degradation studies were performed. In vitro cytotoxicity of the different formulations was also evaluated using an immortalized rat fibroblast cell line L929, up to 72 h of culturing. Synthesized nanoparticles were obtained with an average size of 70 nm and round-shaped morphology. The stability of the different formulations of hydrogels was not affected by nanoparticles' concentration or HA ratio. The presence of synthesized MnO2 (MnO2_S) nanoparticles reduced hydrogels' cytocompatibility, whereas the commercially available type 1 (MnO2_C1) nanoparticles were less toxic to cells. Additionally, cell proliferation and viability were enhanced when a lower content of HA was present. Higher concentrations (75 and 100 ng/mL) of MnO2_S and MnO2_C1 nanoparticles did not negatively affected cell viability, whereas the opposite effect was observed for the commercial type 2 (MnO2_C2) nanoparticles. Further studies are required to evaluate the potential application of the most promising nanoreactors' formulations for combined application in MEMRI and as ROS scavengers.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease resulting in β-cell destruction mediated by islet-infiltrating leukocytes. The role of oxidative stress in human and murine models of T1D is highly significant as these noxious molecules contribute to diabetic complications and β-cell lysis, but their direct impact on dysregulated autoimmune responses is highly understudied. Pro-inflammatory macrophages play a vital role in the initiation and effector phases of T1D by producing free radicals and pro-inflammatory cytokines to facilitate β-cell destruction and to present antigen to autoreactive T cells. Recent Advances: Redox modulation of macrophage functions may play critical roles in autoimmunity. These include enhancing pro-inflammatory innate immune signaling pathways in response to environmental triggers, enforcing an M1 macrophage differentiation program, controlling antigen processing, and altering peptide recognition by oxidative post-translational modification. Therefore, an oxidative environment may act on multiple macrophage functions to orchestrate T1D pathogenesis. CRITICAL ISSUES Mechanisms involved in the initiation of T1D remain unclear, making preventive and early therapeutics difficult to develop. Although many of these advances in the redox regulation of macrophages are in their infancy, they provide insight into how oxidative stress aids in the precipitating event of autoimmune activation. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Future studies should be aimed at mechanistically determining which redox-regulated macrophage functions are pertinent in T1D pathogenesis, as well as at investigating potential targetable therapeutics to halt and/or dampen innate immune activation in T1D.

Abstract
High fidelity of biological systems is frequently achieved by duplication of the essential intracellular machineries or, removal of the entire cell, which becomes unnecessary or even harmful in altered physiological environments. Carefully controlled removal of these cells, without damaging normal cells, requires precise signaling, and is critical to maintaining homeostasis. This review describes how two anionic phospholipids - phosphatidylserine (PS) and cardiolipin (CL) - residing in distinct compartments of the cell, signal removal of "the unnecessary" using several uniform principles. One of these principles is realized by collapse of inherent transmembrane asymmetry and the externalization of the signal on the outer membrane surface - mitochondria for CL and the plasma membrane for PS - to trigger mitophagy and phagocytosis, respectively. Release from damaged cells of intracellular structures with externalized CL or externalized PS triggers their elimination by phagocytosis. Another of these principles is realized by oxidation of polyunsaturated species of CL and PS. Highly specific oxidation of CL by cytochrome c serves as a signal for mitochondria-dependent apoptosis, while oxidation of externalized PS improves its effectiveness to trigger phagocytosis of effete cells.

Abstract
Autophagy is a recycling program which allows cells to adapt to metabolic needs and to stress. Defects in autophagy can affect metabolism, aging, proteostasis and inflammation. Autophagy pathway genes, including autophagy related 7 (Atg7), have been associated with the regulation of skin pigmentation, and autophagy defects disturb the biogenesis and transport of melanosomes in melanocytes as well as transfer and processing of melanin into keratinocytes. We have previously shown that mice whose melanocytes or keratinocytes lack Atg7 (and thus autophagy) as a result of specific gene knockout still retained functioning melanosome synthesis and transfer, and displayed only moderate reduction of pigmentation. In cell culture the Atg7 deficient melanocytes were prone to premature senescence and dysregulation of nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) signaling. To elucidate the biochemical basis of this phenotype, we performed a study on global gene expression, protein secretion and phospholipid composition in Atg7 deficient versus Atg7 expressing melanocytes. In cell culture Atg7 deficient melanocytes showed a pro-inflammatory gene expression signature and secreted higher levels of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand -1,-2,-10 and -12 (Cxcl1, Cxcl2, Cxcl10, Cxcl12), which are implicated in the pathogenesis of pigmentary disorders and expressed higher amounts of matrix metalloproteinases -3 and -13 (Mmp3, Mmp13). The analysis of membrane phospholipid composition identified an increase in the arachidonic- to linoleic acid ratio in the autophagy deficient cells, as well as an increase in oxidized phospholipid species that act as danger associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). The secretion of inflammation related factors suggests that autophagy deficient melanocytes display a senescence associated secretory phenotype (SASP), and we propose oxidized lipid mediators as novel components of this SASP.

Abstract
A major goal in regenerative medicine is to identify therapies to facilitate our body׳s innate abilities to repair and regenerate following injury, disease or aging. In the past decade it has become apparent that the innate immune system is able to affect the speed and quality of the regenerative response through mechanisms that are not entirely clear. For this reason there has been a resurgent interest in investigating the role of inflammation during tissue repair and regeneration. Remarkably, there have only been a handful of such studies using organisms with high regenerative capacity. Here we perform a study of the inflammatory response following injury in Xenopus larvae, which are able to achieve scarless wound healing and to regenerate appendages, as a preamble into understanding the role that inflammation plays during tissue repair and regeneration in this organism. We characterized the morphology and migratory behavior of granulocytes and macrophages following sterile and infected wounding regimes, using various transgenic lines that labeled different types of myeloid lineages, including granulocytes and macrophages. Using this approach we found that the inflammatory response following injury and infection in Xenopus larvae is very similar to that seen in humans, suggesting that this model provides an easily tractable and medically relevant system to investigate inflammation following injury and infection in vivo. Xenopus larvae is an ideal model to study injury-induced inflammation in vivo. Xenopus larvae provides an easily tractable model of human inflammation. Xenopus larvae provides a powerful model for investigating cell migration in vivo.

Abstract
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are widely used in industry and biomedicine. While several studies have focused on biological matters, attempts to systematically elucidate the toxicity mechanisms of CNTs are limited. The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare the cytotoxicity of raw multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and MWCNTs functionalized with carboxylation (MWCNTs-COOH) or polyethylene glycol (MWCNTs-PEG) in murine macrophages. Our results show that only MWCNTs-COOH and raw MWCNTs alter the oxidative potential of macrophages by increasing reactive oxygen species and the expression of pro-inflammatory factors in both a concentration- and surface coating-dependent manner. The data suggest that compare with raw MWCNTs and MWCNTs-PEG, the MWCNTs-COOH produces a significant increase in ROS generation, interruption of ATP synthesis, and activation of the MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways, which in turn upregulates IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and iNOS to trigger cell death. These findings suggest that contributory cellar uptake caused by physicochemical factors rather than residual metal catalysts plays a role in ROS-mediated pro-inflammatory responses in vitro.

Abstract
The rapidly emerging field of nanotechnology has offered innovative discoveries in the medical, industrial, and consumer sectors. The unique physicochemical and electrical properties of engineered nanoparticles (NP) make them highly desirable in a variety of applications. However, these novel properties of NP are fraught with concerns for environmental and occupational exposure. Changes in structural and physicochemical properties of NP can lead to changes in biological activities including ROS generation, one of the most frequently reported NP-associated toxicities. Oxidative stress induced by engineered NP is due to acellular factors such as particle surface, size, composition, and presence of metals, while cellular responses such as mitochondrial respiration, NP-cell interaction, and immune cell activation are responsible for ROS-mediated damage. NP-induced oxidative stress responses are torch bearers for further pathophysiological effects including genotoxicity, inflammation, and fibrosis as demonstrated by activation of associated cell signaling pathways. Since oxidative stress is a key determinant of NP-induced injury, it is necessary to characterize the ROS response resulting from NP. Through physicochemical characterization and understanding of the multiple signaling cascades activated by NP-induced ROS, a systemic toxicity screen with oxidative stress as a predictive model for NP-induced injury can be developed.

We assessed reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by sputum neutrophils and the relationship to neutrophil viability. Identical assessments were made on peripheral blood neutrophils from CF patients. METHODS ROS production in sputum neutrophils was assessed in 31 CF patients at varying phases of clinical disease using flow cytometry. Twenty patients provided blood samples (including 16 who also provided a matched sputum sample). Neutrophil viability was determined using dual annexin V (apoptosis) and propidium iodide (necrosis) staining. Comparative peripheral blood data were obtained from 7 healthy controls. RESULTS ROS production was reduced in sputum compared to blood neutrophils and they demonstrated a higher level of necrosis. Subpopulations of neutrophils with different ROS production capacity were apparent in peripheral blood. Lung function was positively associated with both the proportion of blood neutrophils demonstrating increased ROS production and the proportion of apoptotic sputum neutrophils. CONCLUSIONS CF airway neutrophils display functional exhaustion. Healthier lungs in CF appear to be associated with subpopulations of blood neutrophils with increased oxidative burst capacity and evidence for increased neutrophil apoptosis within the airway.

Abstract
Nanotechnologies are emerging as highly promising technologies in many sectors in the society. However, the increasing use of engineered nanomaterials also raises concerns about inadvertent exposure to these materials and the potential for adverse effects on human health and the environment. Despite several years of intensive investigations, a common paradigm for the understanding of nanoparticle-induced toxicity remains to be firmly established. Here, the so-called oxidative stress paradigm is scrutinized. Does oxidative stress represent a secondary event resulting inevitably from disruption of biochemical processes and the demise of the cell, or a specific, non-random event that plays a role in the induction of cellular damage e.g. apoptosis? The answer to this question will have important ramifications for the development of strategies for mitigation of adverse effects of nanoparticles. Recent examples of global lipidomics studies of nanoparticle-induced tissue damage are discussed along with proteomics and transcriptomics approaches to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the complex and interrelated molecular changes in cells and tissues exposed to nanoparticles. We also discuss instances of non-oxidative stress-mediated cellular damage resulting from direct physical interference of nanomaterials with cellular structures.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is an emerging science involving manipulation of materials at the nanometer scale. There are several exciting prospects for the application of engineered nanomaterials in medicine. However, concerns over adverse and unanticipated effects on human health have also been raised. In fact, the same properties that make engineered nanomaterials attractive from a technological and biomedical perspective could also make these novel materials harmful to human health and the environment. Carbon nanotubes are cylinders of one or several coaxial graphite layer(s) with a diameter in the order of nanometers, and serve as an instructive example of the Janus-like properties of nanomaterials. Numerous in vitro and in vivo studies have shown that carbon nanotubes and/or associated contaminants or catalytic materials that arise during the production process may induce oxidative stress and prominent pulmonary inflammation. Recent studies also suggest some similarities between the pathogenic properties of multi-walled carbon nanotubes and those of asbestos fibers. On the other hand, carbon nanotubes can be readily functionalized and several studies on the use of carbon nanotubes as versatile excipients for drug delivery and imaging of disease processes have been reported, suggesting that carbon nanotubes may have a place in the armamentarium for treatment and monitoring of cancer, infection, and other disease conditions. Nanomedicine is an emerging field that holds great promise; however, close attention to safety issues is required to ensure that the opportunities that carbon nanotubes and other engineered nanoparticles offer can be translated into feasible and safe constructs for the treatment of human disease.

Abstract
The clearance of apoptotic neutrophils by macrophages plays an important role in the process of inflammatory response. In the present study, we examined the ability of macrophages to ingest apoptotic neutrophils after activated by synthetic oligodeoxynucleotides containing CpG motifs (CpG-ODN) in vitro. The results showed that, while CpG-ODN at the experimental concentration had no cytotoxic effect on the viability of macrophages, the percentage of macrophages with ingested apoptotic neutrophils was increased from 23.6 to 42.30% by CpG-ODN stimulation. This effect was silenced when macrophages were treated with the mutation of CpG-ODN motifs. Both the total and cell surface protein of Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) expression in macrophages was up-regulated after CpG-ODN stimulation. While chloroquine (CHQ) had no effect on TLR9 expression in macrophages, it abolished the enhanced uptake of apoptotic neutrophils by macrophages. Although CpG-ODN had no significant effect on the IL-6 production, it was able to induce the increase of TNF-alpha protein expression and this effect was inhibited by CHQ pretreatment. Increased TNF-alpha production from macrophages induced by CpG-ODN stimulation was down-regulated after phagocytosis of apoptotic neutrophils. In conclusion, CpG-ODN could enhance the ingestion of apoptotic neutrophils by macrophages via TLR9 accompanied with an increasing in the level of TNF-alpha. After phagocytosis of apoptotic neutrophils, the increased TNF-alpha production from macrophages induced by CpG-ODN stimulation was down-regulated which the implications in the immune response remains for the further study.

Abstract
The heme protein myeloperoxidase is released from stimulated polymorphonuclear leukocytes, a cell species found in increasing amounts in the male and female genital tract of patients with genital tract inflammations. Myeloperoxidase binds only to a fraction of freshly prepared human spermatozoa. The number of spermatozoa able to bind myeloperoxidase raised considerably in samples containing pre-damaged cells or in acrosome-reacted samples. In addition, myeloperoxidase released from zymosan-stimulated polymorphonuclear leukocytes was also able to bind to pre-damaged spermatozoa. The ability of spermatozoa to bind myeloperoxidase coincided with the binding of annexin V to externalized phosphatidylserine epitopes indicating the loss of plasma membrane integrity and with the incorporation of ethidium homodimer I. Myeloperoxidase did not interact with intact spermatozoa. Annexin V and myeloperoxidase bind to the same binding sites as verified by double fluorescence techniques, flowcytometry analyses as well as competition experiments. We demonstrated also that myeloperoxidase is eluted together with pure phosphatidylserine liposomes or liposomes composed of phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylcholine in gel filtration, but not with pure phosphatidylcholine liposomes. In conclusion, myeloperoxidase interacts with apoptotic spermatozoa via binding to externalized phosphatidylserine indicating a yet unknown role of this protein in recognition and removal of apoptotic cells during inflammation.

Abstract
Apoptosis contributes to cell death in common intensive care unit disorders such as traumatic brain injury and sepsis. Recent evidence suggests that this form of cell death is both clinically relevant and a potential therapeutic target in critical illness. Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) have become a target for drug discovery in recent years since their production is characteristic of early stages of apoptosis. Among many antioxidant agents, stable nitroxide radicals targeted to mitochondria have attracted attention due to their ability to combine electron and free radical scavenging action with recycling capacities. Specific mechanisms of enhanced ROS generation in mitochondria and their translation into apoptotic signals are not well understood. This review focuses on several contemporary aspects of oxidative stress-mediated mitochondrial injury, particularly as they relate to oxidation of lipids and their specific signaling roles in apoptosis and phagocytosis of apoptotic cells.

Abstract
An array of studies implicate different classes of protease and their endogenous inhibitors in multiple sclerosis (MS) pathogenesis based on expression patterns in MS lesions, sera, and/or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Growing evidence exists regarding their mechanistic roles in inflammatory and neurodegenerative aspects of this disease. Proteolytic events participate in demyelination, axon injury, apoptosis, and development of the inflammatory response including immune cell activation and extravasation, cytokine and chemokine activation/inactivation, complement activation, and epitope spreading. The potential significance of proteolytic activity to MS therefore relates not only to their potential use as important biomarkers of disease activity, but additionally as prospective therapeutic targets. Experimental data indicate that understanding the net physiological consequence of altered protease levels in MS development and progression necessitates understanding protease activity in the context of substrates, endogenous inhibitors, and proteolytic cascade interactions, which together make up the MS degradome. This review will focus on evidence regarding the potential physiologic role of those protease families already identified as markers of disease activity in MS; that is, the metallo-, serine, and cysteine proteases.

Abstract
Apoptosis is the regulated form of cell death utilized by metazoans to remove unneeded, damaged, or potentially deleterious cells. Certain manifestations of apoptosis may be associated with the proteolytic activity of caspases. These changes are often held as hallmarks of apoptosis in dying cells. Consequently, many regard caspases as the central effectors or executioners of apoptosis. However, this "caspase-centric" paradigm of apoptotic cell death does not appear to be as universal as once believed. In fact, during apoptosis the efficacy of caspases may be highly dependent on the cytotoxic stimulus as well as genetic and epigenetic factors. An ever-increasing number of studies strongly suggest that there are effectors in addition to caspases, which are important in generating apoptotic signatures in dying cells. These seemingly caspase-independent effectors may represent evolutionarily redundant or failsafe mechanisms for apoptotic cell elimination. In this review, we will discuss the molecular regulation of caspases and various caspase-independent effectors of apoptosis, describe the potential context and/or limitations of these mechanisms, and explore why the understanding of these processes may have relevance in cancer where treatment is believed to engage apoptosis to destroy tumor cells.

Abstract
Background When exposed to oxidative conditions, cells suffer not only biochemical alterations, but also morphologic changes. Oxidative stress is a condition induced by some pro-oxidant compounds, such as by tert-butylhydroperoxide (tBHP) and can also be induced in vivo by ischemia/reperfusion conditions, which is very common in cardiac tissue. The cell line H9c2 has been used as an in vitro cellular model for both skeletal and cardiac muscle. Understanding how these cells respond to oxidative agents may furnish novel insights into how cardiac and skeletal tissues respond to oxidative stress conditions. The objective of this work was to characterize, through vital imaging, morphological alterations and the appearance of apoptotic hallmarks, with a special focus on mitochondrial changes, upon exposure of H9c2 cells to tBHP. Results When exposed to tBHP, an increase in intracellular oxidative stress was detected in H9c2 cells by epifluorescence microscopy, which was accompanied by an increase in cell death that was prevented by the antioxidants Trolox and N-acetylcysteine. Several morphological alterations characteristic of apoptosis were noted, including changes in nuclear morphology, translocation of phosphatidylserine to the outer leaflet of the cell membrane, and cell blebbing. An increase in the exposure period or in tBHP concentration resulted in a clear loss of membrane integrity, which is characteristic of necrosis. Changes in mitochondrial morphology, consisting of a transition from long filaments to small and round fragments, were also detected in H9c2 cells after treatment with tBHP. Bax aggregates near mitochondrial networks were formed after short periods of incubation. Conclusion Vital imaging of alterations in cell morphology is a useful method to characterize cellular responses to oxidative stress. In the present work, we report two distinct patterns of morphological alterations in H9c2 cells exposed to tBHP, a pro-oxidant agent frequently used as model to induce oxidative stress. In particular, dynamic changes in mitochondrial networks could be visualized, which appear to be centrally involved in how these cells respond to oxidative stress. The data also indicate that the cause of H9c2 cell death following tBHP exposure is increased intracellular oxidative stress.

Abstract
The present study characterized two different internalization mechanisms used by macrophages to engulf apoptotic and necrotic cells. Our in vitro phagocytosis assay used a mouse macrophage cell line, and murine L929sAhFas cells that are induced to die in a necrotic way by TNFR1 and heat shock or in an apoptotic way by Fas stimulation. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that apoptotic bodies were taken up by macrophages with formation of tight fitting phagosomes, similar to the 'zipper'-like mechanism of phagocytosis, whereas necrotic cells were internalized by a macropinocytotic mechanism involving formation of multiple ruffles directed towards necrotic debris. Two macropinocytosis markers (Lucifer Yellow (LY) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP)) were excluded from the phagosomes containing apoptotic bodies, but they were present inside the macropinosomes containing necrotic material. Wortmannin (phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor) reduced the uptake of apoptotic cells, but the engulfment of necrotic cells remained unaffected. Our data demonstrate that apoptotic and necrotic cells are internalized differently by macrophages.

Abstract
Since the (re)discovery of cytochrome c (cyt c) in the early 1920s and subsequent detailed characterization of its structure and function in mitochondrial electron transport, it took over 70 years to realize that cyt c plays a different, not less universal role in programmed cell death, apoptosis, by interacting with several proteins and forming apoptosomes. Recently, two additional essential functions of cyt c in apoptosis have been discovered that are carried out via its interactions with anionic phospholipids: a mitochondria specific phospholipid, cardiolipin (CL), and plasma membrane phosphatidylserine (PS). Execution of apoptotic program in cells is accompanied by substantial and early mitochondrial production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Because antioxidant enhancements protect cells against apoptosis, ROS production was viewed not as a meaningless side effect of mitochondrial disintegration but rather playing some - as yet unidentified - role in apoptosis. This conundrum has been resolved by establishing that mitochondria contain a pool of cyt c, which interacts with CL and acts as a CL oxygenase. The oxygenase is activated during apoptosis, utilizes generated ROS and causes selective oxidation of CL. The oxidized CL is required for the release of pro-apoptotic factors from mitochondria into the cytosol. This redox mechanism of cyt c is realized earlier than its other well-recognized functions in the formation of apoptosomes and caspase activation. In the cytosol, released cyt c interacts with another anionic phospholipid, PS, and catalyzes its oxidation in a similar oxygenase reaction. Peroxidized PS facilitates its externalization essential for the recognition and clearance of apoptotic cells by macrophages. Redox catalysis of plasma membrane PS oxidation constitutes an important redox-dependent function of cyt c in apoptosis and phagocytosis. Thus, cyt c acts as an anionic phospholipid specific oxygenase activated and required for the execution of essential stages of apoptosis. This review is focused on newly discovered redox mechanisms of complexes of cyt c with anionic phospholipids and their role in apoptotic pathways in health and disease.

Abstract
Beta2 integrins are leukocyte-specific membrane receptors that are crucial for host defense. They are best known for promoting neutrophil recruitment into inflamed tissue and pathogen phagocytosis. More recent data suggest that they also modulate neutrophil apoptosis. Neutrophils are terminally differentiated cells, which undergo constitutive apoptosis, and their apoptosis and clearance is required for the resolution of inflammation. Engagement of the beta2 integrin Mac-1 through its adhesion to its ligands, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and fibrinogen, signals survival cues in neutrophils. However, in the presence of pro-apoptotic signals, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF), Mac-1 engagement accelerates apoptosis. Furthermore, Mac-1-dependent phagocytosis of complement-opsonized pathogens triggers rapid neutrophil apoptosis, which is dependent on NADPH oxidase-generated reactive oxygen species and caspase activation. This is also associated with changes in the transcription profiles of pro- and anti-apoptotic genes. In this review, the beta2 integrin-dependent mechanisms that modulate the decision between life and death in neutrophils are overviewed.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to verify whether the in vitro senescence process of tissue pool neutrophils of the bovine mammary gland is accompanied by similar changes of ultrastructure as typically occurs in in vivo conditions. The experiments were carried out in four clinically healthy, Holstein x Bohemian Red-Pied crossbred heifers aged 14-16 months. With the aid of transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and flow cytometry (FCM), neutrophil apoptosis in vivo was detected and during senescence it was monitored in vitro. The neutrophil apoptosis comprised three ultrastructurally different stages: (1) karyopyknosis, (2) zeiosis, and (3) apoptotic bodies. These stages were obvious in the apoptotic neutrophils both in vivo and in vitro. In addition to the common morphological signs, however, ultrastructural differences were also detected in apoptotic neutrophils in vitro. These in vitro ultrastructural differences mostly comprised hyper-vacuolation of the cytoplasm with mega-vacuoles and secondary necrosis of apoptotic neutrophils. Morphological features of apoptosis during in vitro senescence of tissue pool neutrophils of the bovine mammary gland were shown to be in close accordance with these in vivo signs.

Abstract
Monocytic cell lines have been extensively used to characterize and model various features of the atherogenic process. We found striking differences in the apoptotic pathways of U937 cells and THP-1 cells exposed to copper-oxidized LDL. While phosphatidylserine exposure occurred in both lines, caspase activation was only apparent in the THP-1 cells. OxLDL caused caspase activity to decrease below that seen in untreated U937 cells, and this corresponded with a loss in intracellular thiols. In conclusion, exposure of U937 cells to oxLDL did not trigger a conventional apoptosis response, but still resulted in phosphatidylserine externalization.

Abstract
AbstractDuring extravasation, neutrophils migrate through the perivascular basement membrane (BM), a specialized extracellular matrix rich in laminins. Laminins 8 (LN-8) (α4β1γ1) and 10 (LN-10) (α5β1γ1) are major components of the endothelial BM, but expression, recognition, and use of these laminin isoforms by neutrophils are poorly understood. In the present study, we provide evidence, using a panel of novel monoclonal antibodies against human laminin α4 (LNα4) chain, that neutrophils contain and secrete LN-8, and that this endogenous laminin contributes to chemoattractant-induced, αMβ2-integrin–dependent neutrophil migration through albumin-coated filters. Phorbol ester–stimulated neutrophils adhered to recombinant human (rh) LN-8, rhLN-10, and mouse LN-1 (mLN-1) (α1β1γ1) via αMβ2-integrin, and these laminin isoforms strongly promoted chemoattractant-induced neutrophil migration via the same integrin. However, only rhLN-8 enhanced the spontaneous migration. In addition, recruitment of neutrophils into the peritoneum following an inflammatory stimulus was impaired in LNα4-deficient mice. rhLN-8 also protected isolated neutrophils from spontaneous apoptosis. This study is the first to identify a specific laminin isoform in neutrophils and provides evidence for the role of LN-8 in the adhesion, migration, extravasation, and survival of these cells.

Abstract
Apoptosis is associated with the externalization of phosphatidylserine (PS) in the plasma membrane and subsequent recognition of PS by specific macrophage receptors. Selective oxidation of PS precedes its externalization/recognition and is essential for the PS-dependent engulfment of apoptotic cells. Because etoposide is a potent and selective lipid antioxidant that does not block thiol oxidation, we hypothesized that it may affect PS externalization/recognition without affecting other features of the apoptotic program. We demonstrate herein that etoposide induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells without the concomitant peroxidation of PS and other phospholipids. HL-60 cells also failed to externalize PS in response to etoposide treatment. In contrast, oxidant (H2O2)-induced apoptosis was accompanied by PS externalization and oxidation of different phospholipids, including PS. Etoposide potentiated H2O2-induced apoptosis but completely blocked H2O2-induced PS oxidation. Etoposide also inhibited PS externalization as well as phagocytosis of apoptotic cells by J774A.1 macrophages. Integration of exogenous PS or a mixture of PS with oxidized PS in etoposide-treated HL-60 cells reconstituted the recognition of these cells by macrophages. The current data demonstrate that lipid antioxidants, capable of preventing PS peroxidation, can block PS externalization and phagocytosis of apoptotic cells by macrophages and hence dissociate PS-dependent signaling from the final common pathway for apoptosis.
