Systematic in vivo candidate evaluation uncovers therapeutic targets for LMNA dilated cardiomyopathy and risk of Lamin A toxicity. J Transl Med 2023; 21:690. [PMID: 37840136 PMCID: PMC10577912 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-023-04542-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2023] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a severe, non-ischemic heart disease which ultimately results in heart failure (HF). Decades of research on DCM have revealed diverse aetiologies. Among them, familial DCM is the major form of DCM, with pathogenic variants in LMNA being the second most common form of autosomal dominant DCM. LMNA DCM is a multifactorial and complex disease with no specific treatment thus far. Many studies have demonstrated that perturbing candidates related to various dysregulated pathways ameliorate LMNA DCM. However, it is unknown whether these candidates could serve as potential therapeutic targets especially in long term efficacy. METHODS We evaluated 14 potential candidates including Lmna gene products (Lamin A and Lamin C), key signaling pathways (Tgfβ/Smad, mTor and Fgf/Mapk), calcium handling, proliferation regulators and modifiers of LINC complex function in a cardiac specific Lmna DCM model. Positive candidates for improved cardiac function were further assessed by survival analysis. Suppressive roles and mechanisms of these candidates in ameliorating Lmna DCM were dissected by comparing marker gene expression, Tgfβ signaling pathway activation, fibrosis, inflammation, proliferation and DNA damage. Furthermore, transcriptome profiling compared the differences between Lamin A and Lamin C treatment. RESULTS Cardiac function was restored by several positive candidates (Smad3, Yy1, Bmp7, Ctgf, aYAP1, Sun1, Lamin A, and Lamin C), which significantly correlated with suppression of HF/fibrosis marker expression and cardiac fibrosis in Lmna DCM. Lamin C or Sun1 shRNA administration achieved consistent, prolonged survival which highly correlated with reduced heart inflammation and DNA damage. Importantly, Lamin A treatment improved but could not reproduce long term survival, and Lamin A administration to healthy hearts itself induced DCM. Mechanistically, we identified this lapse as caused by a dose-dependent toxicity of Lamin A, which was independent from its maturation. CONCLUSIONS In vivo candidate evaluation revealed that supplementation of Lamin C or knockdown of Sun1 significantly suppressed Lmna DCM and achieve prolonged survival. Conversely, Lamin A supplementation did not rescue long term survival and may impart detrimental cardiotoxicity risk. This study highlights a potential of advancing Lamin C and Sun1 as therapeutic targets for the treatment of LMNA DCM.

Abstract
Cardiomyopathy is a progressive disease of the myocardium leading to impaired contractility. Genotoxic cancer therapies are known to be potent drivers of cardiomyopathy, whereas causes of spontaneous disease remain unclear. To test the hypothesis that endogenous genotoxic stress contributes to cardiomyopathy, we deleted the DNA repair gene Ercc1 specifically in striated muscle using a floxed allele of Ercc1 and mice expressing Cre under control of the muscle-specific creatinine kinase (Ckmm) promoter or depleted systemically (Ercc1-/D mice). Ckmm-Cre+/- ;Ercc1-/fl mice expired suddenly of heart disease by 7 months of age. As young adults, the hearts of Ckmm-Cre+/- ;Ercc1-/fl mice were structurally and functionally normal, but by 6-months-of-age, there was significant ventricular dilation, wall thinning, interstitial fibrosis, and systolic dysfunction indicative of dilated cardiomyopathy. Cardiac tissue from the tissue-specific or systemic model showed increased apoptosis and cardiac myocytes from Ckmm-Cre+/- ;Ercc1-/fl mice were hypersensitive to genotoxins, resulting in apoptosis. p53 levels and target gene expression, including several antioxidants, were increased in cardiac tissue from Ckmm-Cre+/- ;Ercc1-/fl and Ercc1-/D mice. Despite this, cardiac tissue from older mutant mice showed evidence of increased oxidative stress. Genetic or pharmacologic inhibition of p53 attenuated apoptosis and improved disease markers. Similarly, overexpression of mitochondrial-targeted catalase improved disease markers. Together, these data support the conclusion that DNA damage produced endogenously can drive cardiac disease and does so mechanistically via chronic activation of p53 and increased oxidative stress, driving cardiac myocyte apoptosis, dilated cardiomyopathy, and sudden death.

Abstract
While biomarkers have been proposed to identify individuals at risk for radiation-induced cardiovascular disease (RICVD), little is known about long-term associations with cardiac events. We examined associations of biomarkers of oxidative stress (myeloperoxidase, growth differentiation factor-15, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine [8-OH-dG], placental growth factor), cardiac injury (troponin I, cystatin-C), inflammation (interleukin-6, C-reactive protein), and myocardial fibrosis (transforming growth factor-ß) with long-term RICVD in breast cancer (BC) survivors. We conducted a nested case-control study within the Women's Health Initiative of postmenopausal women with incident BC stages I-III, who received radiation and had pre- and post-BC diagnosis serum samples. Cases (n = 55) were defined as developing incident, physician-adjudicated myocardial infarction, coronary heart disease death, other CVD death, heart failure, or stroke after BC. Cases were matched to three controls (n = 158). After adjustment, a higher 8-OH-dG ratio was significantly associated with an elevated long-term risk of RICVD, suggesting oxidative DNA damage may be a putative pathway for RICVD.

Abstract
Mitochondria are subcellular organelles involved in essential cellular functions, including cytosolic calcium regulation, cell apoptosis, and reactive oxygen species production. They are the site of important biochemical pathways, including the tricarboxylic acid cycle, parts of the ureagenesis cycle, or haem synthesis. Mitochondria are responsible for the majority of cellular ATP production through OXPHOS. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been associated with metabolic pathologies such as diabetes, obesity, hypertension, neurodegenerative diseases, cellular aging, and cancer. In this article, we describe the pathophysiological changes in, and mitochondrial role of, metabolic disorders (diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease) and their correlation with oxidative stress. We highlight the genetic changes identified at the mtDNA level. Additionally, we selected several representative biomarkers involved in oxidative stress and summarize the progress of therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Heart failure has reached epidemic proportions in a progressively ageing population. The molecular mechanisms underlying heart failure remain elusive, but evidence indicates that DNA damage is enhanced in failing hearts. Here, we tested the hypothesis that endogenous DNA repair in cardiomyocytes is critical for maintaining normal cardiac function, so that perturbed repair of spontaneous DNA damage drives early onset of heart failure. To increase the burden of spontaneous DNA damage, we knocked out the DNA repair endonucleases xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group G (XPG) and excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1), either systemically or cardiomyocyte-restricted, and studied the effects on cardiac function and structure. Loss of DNA repair permitted normal heart development but subsequently caused progressive deterioration of cardiac function, resulting in overt congestive heart failure and premature death within 6 months. Cardiac biopsies revealed increased oxidative stress associated with increased fibrosis and apoptosis. Moreover, gene set enrichment analysis showed enrichment of pathways associated with impaired DNA repair and apoptosis, and identified TP53 as one of the top active upstream transcription regulators. In support of the observed cardiac phenotype in mutant mice, several genetic variants in the ERCC1 and XPG gene in human GWAS data were found to be associated with cardiac remodelling and dysfunction. In conclusion, unrepaired spontaneous DNA damage in differentiated cardiomyocytes drives early onset of cardiac failure. These observations implicate DNA damage as a potential novel therapeutic target and highlight systemic and cardiomyocyte-restricted DNA repair-deficient mouse mutants as bona fide models of heart failure.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical condition characterized by functional and structural defects of the myocardium, but genetic and environmental factors are considered to play an important role in the development of the disease. In the present study, we investigated the genome instability (DNA and chromosomal damage) in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) ≤40% and its association with risk factors. The studied population included 48 individuals, of which 29 HFrEF patients (mean age 57.41 ± 5.74 years) and 19 healthy controls (mean age 57.63 ± 6.09 years). The genetic damage index in peripheral blood lymphocytes was analyzed using the comet assay, while micronuclei frequency and nuclear division index were analyzed using the cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay. Our results showed that HFrEF patients had a significantly higher genetic damage index compared with the healthy controls (P < .001). Cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay showed that the average micronucleus frequency in peripheral blood lymphocytes of patients was significantly higher, while the nuclear division index values were significantly lower than in controls (P < .01). Using multiple linear regression analysis, pathological state, ejection fraction, creatinine, glucose, associated disease, residence, proBNP, troponin, urea, ACE-inhibitors, and length of the drug therapy were identified as predictors of DNA and/or chromosomal damage in HF patients. We can conclude that DNA and chromosomal damage was increased in patients with HF, which may be a consequence of disease and/or drug therapy.

Abstract
DNA damage response (DDR) signaling ensures genomic and proteomic homeostasis to maintain a healthy genome. Dysregulation either in the form of down- or upregulation in the DDR pathways correlates with various pathophysiological states, including cancer and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Impaired DDR is studied as a signature mechanism for cancer; however, it also plays a role in ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), inflammation, cardiovascular function, and aging, demonstrating a complex and intriguing relationship between cancer and pathophysiology of CVDs. Accordingly, there are increasing number of reports indicating higher incidences of CVDs in cancer patients. In the present review, we thoroughly discuss (1) different DDR pathways, (2) the functional cross talk among different DDR mechanisms, (3) the role of DDR in cancer, (4) the commonalities and differences of DDR between cancer and CVDs, (5) the role of DDR in pathophysiology of CVDs, (6) interventional strategies for targeting genomic instability in CVDs, and (7) future perspective.

Abstract
Age-associated diseases represent a growing burden for global health systems in our aging society. Consequently, we urgently need innovative strategies to counteract these pathological disturbances. Overwhelming generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is associated with age-related damage, leading to cellular dysfunction and, ultimately, diseases. However, low-dose ROS act as crucial signaling molecules and inducers of a vaccination-like response to boost antioxidant defense mechanisms, known as mitohormesis. Consequently, modulation of ROS homeostasis by nutrition, exercise, or pharmacological interventions is critical in aging. Numerous nutrients and approved drugs exhibit pleiotropic effects on ROS homeostasis. In the current review, we provide an overview of drugs affecting ROS generation and ROS detoxification and evaluate the potential of these effects to counteract the development and progression of age-related diseases. In case of inflammation-related dysfunctions, cardiovascular- and neurodegenerative diseases, it might be essential to strengthen antioxidant defense mechanisms in advance by low ROS level rises to boost the individual ROS defense mechanisms. In contrast, induction of overwhelming ROS production might be helpful to fight pathogens and kill cancer cells. While we outline the potential of ROS manipulation to counteract age-related dysfunction and diseases, we also raise the question about the proper intervention time and dosage.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) arise from a complex interplay among genomic, proteomic, and metabolomic abnormalities. Emerging evidence has recently consolidated the presence of robust DNA damage in a variety of cardiovascular disorders. DNA damage triggers a series of cellular responses termed DNA damage response (DDR) including detection of DNA lesions, cell cycle arrest, DNA repair, cellular senescence, and apoptosis, in all organ systems including hearts and vasculature. Although transient DDR in response to temporary DNA damage can be beneficial for cardiovascular function, persistent activation of DDR promotes the onset and development of CVDs. Moreover, therapeutic interventions that target DNA damage and DDR have the potential to attenuate cardiovascular dysfunction and improve disease outcome. In this review, we will discuss molecular mechanisms of DNA damage and repair in the onset and development of CVDs, and explore how DDR in specific cardiac cell types contributes to CVDs. Moreover, we will highlight the latest advances regarding the potential therapeutic strategies targeting DNA damage signalling in CVDs.

Abstract
Objective Heart failure (HF) is a common and highly morbid cardiovascular disorder. Oxidative stress worsens HF, and uric acid (UA) is a useful oxidative stress marker. The novel anti-hyperuricemic drug febuxostat is a potent non-purine selective xanthine oxidase inhibitor. The present study examined the UA-lowering and prognostic effects of febuxostat in patients with HF compared with conventional allopurinol. Methods This multicenter, randomized trial included 263 patients with chronic HF who were randomly assigned to two groups and received allopurinol or febuxostat (UA >7.0 mg/dL). All patients were followed up for 3 years after enrollment. Results There were no significant differences in baseline clinical characteristics between the two groups. The UA level was significantly decreased after 3 years of drug administration compared with the baseline in both groups. Urine levels of the oxidative stress marker 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine were lower in the febuxostat group than in the allopurinol group (11.0 ± 9.6 vs. 22.9 ± 15.9 ng/mL), and the rate of patients free from hospitalization due to worsening HF tended to be higher in the febuxostat group than in the allopurinol group (89.0% vs. 83.0%). Conclusions Febuxostat is potentially more effective than allopurinol for treating patients with chronic HF and hyperuricemia. This study was registered in the University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry (https://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr/; ID: 000009817).

Ion Channel Impairment and Myofilament Ca 2+ Sensitization: Two Parallel Mechanisms Underlying Arrhythmogenesis in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. Cells 2021; 10:cells10102789.

Abstract
Life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias are the main clinical burden in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), and frequently occur in young patients with mild structural disease. While massive hypertrophy, fibrosis and microvascular ischemia are the main mechanisms underlying sustained reentry-based ventricular arrhythmias in advanced HCM, cardiomyocyte-based functional arrhythmogenic mechanisms are likely prevalent at earlier stages of the disease. In this review, we will describe studies conducted in human surgical samples from HCM patients, transgenic animal models and human cultured cell lines derived from induced pluripotent stem cells. Current pieces of evidence concur to attribute the increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias in early HCM to different cellular mechanisms. The increase of late sodium current and L-type calcium current is an early observation in HCM, which follows post-translation channel modifications and increases the occurrence of early and delayed afterdepolarizations. Increased myofilament Ca2+ sensitivity, commonly observed in HCM, may promote afterdepolarizations and reentry arrhythmias with direct mechanisms. Decrease of K+-currents due to transcriptional regulation occurs in the advanced disease and contributes to reducing the repolarization-reserve and increasing the early afterdepolarizations (EADs). The presented evidence supports the idea that patients with early-stage HCM should be considered and managed as subjects with an acquired channelopathy rather than with a structural cardiac disease.

Abstract
Biomarkers for prognosis-based detection of Trypanosoma cruzi-infected patients presenting no clinical symptoms to cardiac Chagas disease (CD) are not available. In this study, we examined the performance of seven biomarkers in prognosis and risk of symptomatic CD development. T. cruzi-infected patients clinically asymptomatic (C/A; n = 30) or clinically symptomatic (C/S; n = 30) for cardiac disease and humans who were noninfected and healthy (N/H; n = 24) were enrolled (1 - β = 80%, α = 0.05). Serum, plasma, and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were analyzed for heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (hnRNPA1), vimentin, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP1), 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), copeptin, endostatin, and myostatin biomarkers by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blotting. Secreted hnRNPA1, vimentin, PARP1, 8-OHdG, copeptin, and endostatin were increased by 1.4- to 7.0-fold in CD subjects versus N/H subjects (P < 0.001) and showed excellent predictive value in identifying the occurrence of infection (area under the receiver operating characteristic [ROC] curve [AUC], 0.935 to 0.999). Of these, vimentin, 8-OHdG, and copeptin exhibited the best performance in prognosis of C/S (versus C/A) CD, determined by binary logistic regression analysis with the Cox and Snell test (R2C&S = 0.492 to 0.688). A decline in myostatin and increase in hnRNPA1 also exhibited good predictive value in identifying C/S and C/A CD status, respectively. Furthermore, circulatory 8-OHdG (Wald χ2 = 15.065), vimentin (Wald χ2 = 14.587), and endostatin (Wald χ2 = 17.902) levels exhibited a strong association with changes in left ventricular ejection fraction and diastolic diameter (P = 0.001) and predicted the risk of cardiomyopathy development in CD patients. We have identified four biomarkers (vimentin, 8-OHdG, copeptin, and endostatin) that offer excellent value in prognosis and risk of symptomatic CD development. Decline in these four biomarkers and increase in hnRNPA1 would be useful in monitoring the efficacy of therapies and vaccines in halting CD. IMPORTANCE There is a lack of validated biomarkers for diagnosis of T. cruzi-infected individuals at risk of developing heart disease. Of the seven potential biomarkers that were screened, vimentin, 8-OHdG, copeptin, and endostatin exhibited excellent performance in distinguishing the clinical severity of Chagas disease. A decline in these four biomarkers can also be used for monitoring the therapeutic responses of infected patients to established or newly developed drugs and vaccines and precisely inform the patients about their progress. These biomarkers can easily be screened using the readily available plasma/serum samples in the clinical setting by an ELISA that is inexpensive, fast, and requires low-tech resources at the facility, equipment, and personnel levels.

Abstract
Mitochondria are the main organelles that produce adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in eukaryotic cells and meanwhile susceptible to oxidative damage. The irreversible oxidative damage in mitochondria has been implicated in various human diseases. Increasing evidence indicates the therapeutic potential of mitochondria-targeted antioxidants (MTAs) for oxidative damage-associated diseases. In this article, we introduce the advantageous properties of MTAs compared with the conventional (nontargeted) ones, review different mitochondria-targeted delivery systems and antioxidants, and summarize their experimental results for various disease treatments in different animal models and clinical trials. The combined evidence demonstrates that mitochondrial redox homeostasis is a potential target for disease treatment. Meanwhile, the limitations and prospects for exploiting MTAs are discussed, which might pave ways for further trial design and drug development.

Abstract
Oxidative stress plays a key role in the pathophysiology of post-cardiac arrest syndrome. Molecular hydrogen reduces oxidative stress and exerts anti-inflammatory effects in an animal model of cardiac arrest. However, its effect on human post-cardiac arrest syndrome is unclear. We consecutively enrolled five comatose post-cardiac arrest patients (three males; mean age, 65 ± 15 years; four cardiogenic, one septic cardiac arrest) and evaluated temporal changes in oxidative stress markers and cytokines with inhaled hydrogen. All patients were treated with target temperature management. Hydrogen gas inhalation (2% hydrogen with titrated oxygen) was initiated upon admission for 18 h. Blood hydrogen concentrations, plasma and urine oxidative stress markers (derivatives of reactive oxygen metabolites, biological antioxidant potential, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, Nɛ-hexanoyl-lysine, lipid hydroperoxide), and cytokines (interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α) were measured before and 3, 9, 18, and 24 h after hydrogen gas inhalation. Arterial hydrogen concentration was measurable and it was equilibrated with inhaled hydrogen. Oxidative stress was reduced and cytokine levels were unchanged in cardiogenic patients, whereas oxidative stress was unchanged and cytokine levels were diminished in the septic patient. The effect of inhaled hydrogen on oxidative stress and cytokines in comatose post-cardiac arrest patients remains indefinite because of methodological weaknesses.

Abstract
Although low levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are beneficial for the organism ensuring normal cell and vascular function, the overproduction of ROS and increased oxidative stress levels play a significant role in the onset and progression of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). This paper aims at providing a thorough review of the available literature investigating the effects of acute and chronic exercise training and detraining on redox regulation, in the context of CVDs. An acute bout of either cardiovascular or resistance exercise training induces a transient oxidative stress and inflammatory response accompanied by reduced antioxidant capacity and enhanced oxidative damage. There is evidence showing that these responses to exercise are proportional to exercise intensity and inversely related to an individual’s physical conditioning status. However, when chronically performed, both types of exercise amplify the antioxidant defense mechanism, reduce oxidative stress and preserve redox status. On the other hand, detraining results in maladaptations within a time-frame that depends on the exercise training intensity and mode, as high-intensity training is superior to low-intensity and resistance training is superior to cardiovascular training in preserving exercise-induced adaptations during detraining periods. Collectively, these findings suggest that exercise training, either cardiovascular or resistance or even a combination of them, is a promising, safe and efficient tool in the prevention and treatment of CVDs.

Abstract
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. The mechanisms whereby ambient air pollution and temperature changes promote cardiac events remain incompletely described. Seventy-three nonsmoking healthy adults (mean age 23.3, SD 5.4 years) were followed with up to four repeated visits across 15 months in Beijing in 2014–2016. Biomarkers relevant to myocardial damage (high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I [hs-cTnI]), inflammation (growth differentiation factor-15 [GDF-15]), and oxidative stress (8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine [8-OHdG]) were measured at each visit, while ambient air pollution and temperature were monitored throughout the study. Linear mixed-effects models coupled with distributed lag nonlinear models were used to assess the impacts of each exposure measure on study outcomes. During follow-up, average daily concentrations of fine particulate matter and outdoor temperature were 62.9 µg/m3 (8.1–331.0 µg/m3) and 10.1 °C (−6.5°C to 29.5°C). Serum hs-cTnI levels were detectable in 18.2% of blood samples, with 27.4% of individuals having ≥1 detectable values. Higher levels of ambient particulates and gaseous pollutants (per interquartile range) up to 14 days before clinical visits were associated with significant alterations in hs-cTnI levels of 22.9% (95% CI, 6.4, 39.4) to 154.7% (95% CI, 94.4, 215.1). These changes were accompanied by elevations of circulating GDF-15 and urinary 8-OHdG levels. Both low (5th percentile, −2.5 °C) and high (95th percentile, 24.8°C) outdoor temperatures, with breakpoint at ~13.0°C as the reference level, were also associated with elevations of hs-cTnI levels. Short-term exposure to ambient air pollution and temperature was associated with cardiac troponin, a biomarker of myocardial damage, along with increased inflammation and oxidative stress responses. These findings extend our understanding of the biological mechanisms linking pervasive environmental exposure to adverse cardiac events.

Abstract
A large body of evidence indicates that mitochondrial dysfunction has a major role in the pathogenesis of multiple cardiovascular disorders. Over the past 2 decades, extraordinary efforts have been focused on the development of agents that specifically target mitochondria for the treatment of cardiovascular disease. Despite such an intensive wave of investigation, no drugs specifically conceived to modulate mitochondrial functions are currently available for the clinical management of cardiovascular disease. In this Review, we discuss the therapeutic potential of targeting mitochondria in patients with cardiovascular disease, examine the obstacles that have restrained the development of mitochondria-targeting agents thus far, and identify strategies that might empower the full clinical potential of this approach.

Abstract
Cardiomyopathy caused by lamin A/C gene (LMNA) mutations (hereafter referred as LMNA cardiomyopathy) is an anatomic and pathologic condition associated with muscular and electrical dysfunction of the heart, often leading to heart failure-related disability. There is currently no specific therapy available for patients that target the molecular pathophysiology of LMNA cardiomyopathy. We showed here an increase in oxidative stress levels in the hearts of mice carrying LMNA mutation, associated with a decrease of the key cellular antioxidant glutathione (GHS). Oral administration of N-acetyl cysteine, a GHS precursor, led to a marked improvement of GHS content, a decrease in oxidative stress markers including protein carbonyls and an improvement of left ventricular structure and function in a model of LMNA cardiomyopathy. Collectively, our novel results provide therapeutic insights into LMNA cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Oxidative stress mediates chemical damage to DNA yielding a wide variety of products. In this work, the potential capability of melatonin and several of its metabolites to repair directly (chemically) oxidative lesions in DNA was explored. It was found that all the investigated molecules are capable of repairing guanine-centered radical cations by electron transfer at very high rates, that is, diffusion-limited. They are also capable of repairing C-centered radicals in the sugar moiety of 2'-deoxyguanosine (2dG) by hydrogen atom transfer. Although this was identified as a rather slow process, with rate constants ranging from 1.75 to 5.32 × 102 M-1 s-1 , it is expected to be fast enough to prevent propagation of the DNA damage. Melatonin metabolites 6-hydroxymelatonin (6OHM) and 4-hydroxymelatonin (4OHM) are also predicted to repair OH adducts in the imidazole ring. In particular, the rate constants corresponding to the repair of 8-OH-G adducts were found to be in the order of 104 M-1 s-1 and are assisted by a water molecule. The results presented here strongly suggest that the role of melatonin in preventing DNA damage might be mediated by its capability, combined with that of its metabolites, to directly repair oxidized sites in DNA through different chemical routes.

Abstract
Cardiac hypertrophy is an adaptive enlargement of myocardium in response to pressure overload caused various pathological insults, which is accompanied by alteration of a complex cascade of signaling pathways. During the hypertrophy process, many changes occur at cellular level including gene reprogramming by turning off chromatin regulators. Studies from the past decade have demonstrated that the abnormal epigenetic modifications, such as DNA methylation, histone modification, and oxidative modification of nucleic acid, could lead to changes in chromosome structure and cardiac dysfunction. Increasing evidence indicates that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have functional significance in modulating the gene expression during those pathological events in the heart. Emerging evidences have highlighted that ncRNAs might serve as a signal for changing the state of chromatin, however, the knowledge about the ncRNA-linked epigenetic regulatory mechanisms in cardiac pathologies is still largely unexplored. In this review, we summarize the current information on association between ncRNAs and epigenetic modifications in cardiac hypertrophy, and we have discussed their crosstalk. In addition, this review provides insights into their therapeutic and diagnostic potential for treating hypertrophic heart disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of the present study was to evaluate oxidative DNA damage in peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and to explore the relationship of oxidised purine and pyrimidine with oxidative stress. METHODS The study participants (n = 100) included 50 patients and unrelated 50 age-, sex- and population-subgroup (Jat Sikhs)-matched healthy controls. Oxidative DNA damage using the modified enzymatic comet in PBLs, and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, total oxidant status (TOS) and total antioxidant status (TAS) in blood serum samples using spectrophotometric methods was determined. RESULTS The basal DNA damage of percent tail DNA (T-DNA%) was increased as were tail moment (TM) and olive tail moment (OTM). Oxidative DNA damage in terms of oxidised purines and oxidised pyrimidines was also significantly (p < .001) elevated in patients. Rather the advanced stages of CAD, unstable angina and acute myocardial infarction had significantly more basal and oxidative DNA damage (p < .05) compared to stable angina. MDA levels (p < .01) and TOS (p < .001) were increased significantly in patients with significant (p < .001) decrease in TAS. There was positive correlation of oxidised purines (T-DNA% r = 0.399, p = .004; TM r = 0.623, p = .001; OTM r = 0.456, p= .001) and of total oxidative damage (TM r = 0.515, p = .001; OTM r = 0.463, p = .001) with disease severity, and, with TOS (r = 0.279, p = .050) and negative with TAS (r = -0.341, p = .015). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed TOS and disease severity as independent predictors of oxidative DNA damage. CONCLUSIONS There was significant increase in oxidative DNA damage and oxidative stress in CAD patients compared to levels in healthy controls.

Abstract
Oxidative damage to DNA has important implications for human health and has been identified as a key factor in the onset and development of numerous diseases. Thus, it is evident that preventing DNA from oxidative damage is crucial for humans and for any living organism. Melatonin is an astonishingly versatile molecule in this context. It can offer both direct and indirect protection against a wide variety of damaging agents and through multiple pathways, which may (or may not) take place simultaneously. They include direct antioxidative protection, which is mediated by melatonin's free radical scavenging activity, and also indirect ways of action. The latter include, at least: (i) inhibition of metal-induced DNA damage; (ii) protection against non-radical triggers of oxidative DNA damage; (iii) continuous protection after being metabolized; (iv) activation of antioxidative enzymes; (v) inhibition of pro-oxidative enzymes; and (vi) boosting of the DNA repair machinery. The rather unique capability of melatonin to exhibit multiple neutralizing actions against diverse threatening factors, together with its low toxicity and its ability to cross biological barriers, are all significant to its efficiency for preventing oxidative damage to DNA.

Abstract
8-Nitroguanine (8-nitroG) formed due to nitration of guanine base of DNA plays an important role in mutagenesis and carcinogenesis. In the present contribution, state-of-the-art quantum chemical calculations using M06-2X density functional and domain-based local pair natural orbital-coupled cluster theory with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations (DLPNO-CCSD(T)) methods have been carried out to investigate the mechanism of reaction of •OH radical with 8-nitroG leading to the formation of 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) (one of the most mutagenic and carcinogenic derivatives of guanine) in gas phase and aqueous media. Calculations of barrier energies and rate constants involved in the addition reactions of •OH radical at different sites of 8-nitroguanine show that C8 and C2 sites are the most and least reactive sites, respectively. Relative stability and Boltzmann populations of adducts show that the adduct formed at the C8 site occurs predominantly in equilibrium. Our calculations reveal that 8-nitroG is very reactive toward •OH radical and is converted readily into 8-oxoG when attacked by •OH radicals, in agreement with available experimental observations.

Abstract
The molecular pathophysiology of heart failure, which is one of the leading causes of mortality, is not yet fully understood. Heart failure can be regarded as a systemic syndrome of aging-related phenotypes. Wnt/β-catenin signaling and the p53 pathway, both of which are key regulators of aging, have been demonstrated to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of heart failure. Circulating C1q was identified as a novel activator of Wnt/β-catenin signaling, promoting systemic aging-related phenotypes including sarcopenia and heart failure. On the other hand, p53 induces the apoptosis of cardiomyocytes in the failing heart. In these molecular mechanisms, the cross-talk between cardiomyocytes and non-cardiomyocytes (e,g,. endothelial cells, fibroblasts, smooth muscle cells, macrophages) deserves mentioning. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the understanding of the molecular pathophysiology underlying heart failure, focusing on Wnt/β-catenin signaling and the p53 pathway.

Abstract
Mice that lacked manganese-superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) activity exhibited the typical pathology of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of supplementation with omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) on heart function and oxidative stress biomarkers in mice with DCM. In the present study, heart/muscle-specific Mn-SOD-deficient mice (H/M-Sod2-/-) were treated with n-3 PUFA (30 mg/kg/day) for 10 weeks, and the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in their heart mitochondria and cardiac function was subsequently assessed. n-3 PUFA treatment diminished ROS production and suppressed the progression of cardiac dysfunction. Furthermore, n-3 PUFA treatment effectively reversed the cardiac dysfunction and dilatation observed in symptomatic H/M-Sod2-/- mice. Notably, n-3 PUFA treatment ameliorated a molecular defect in connexin 43. Hematoxylin-eosin staining indicated that the phenotype of DCM was also ameliorated following n-3 PUFA treatment. Furthermore, echocardiography demonstrated that cardiac function was significantly improved in the mice treated with n-3 PUFA (P<0.05). Meanwhile, pre-treatment with n-3 PUFA significantly decreased cardiomyocyte apoptosis (P<0.001). In conclusion, n-3 PUFA treatment is able to prevent murine DCM, primarily by reducing ROS production and improving myocardial apoptosis. Therefore, the impairment of ROS production is proposed as a potential therapy for DCM.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In congestive heart failure (CHF), men are younger, more likely to have reduced ejection fraction (HF-rEF), and to be diabetic compared to women. Despite this, sex differences in oxidative stress have yet to be explored in CHF. METHODS Data from 67 males and 63 females hospitalized for CHF were collected. Static oxidation-reduction potential (sORP), a relative indicator of oxidative stress, and capacity ORP (icORP), a relative indicator of antioxidant capacity, were measured from plasma samples. We examined whether sex modified the relationship between ORP and hospital discharge disposition (poor outcome: death, hospice), along with other demographics, medications, and diagnostic parameters. RESULTS Males with poor outcomes had higher sORP and icORP values than females (P < 0.05). For those with a good outcome, there were no differences between the sexes (P > 0.05). Males were younger and more likely to have HF-rEF and diabetes. Controlling for these variables did not account for the sex differences in ORP measures. Regardless of sex, higher creatinine was related to higher sORP and icORP, while lower magnesium and potassium were related to higher sORP and icORP, respectively. DISCUSSION Increases in sORP during CHF are partially affected by sex and acute outcomes, but are also related to variables without sexual biases.

Abstract
The DNA damage response (DDR) plays a pivotal role in maintaining genome integrity. DNA damage and DDR activation are observed in the failing heart, however, the type of DNA damage and its role in the pathogenesis of heart failure remain elusive. Here we show the critical role of DNA single-strand break (SSB) in the pathogenesis of pressure overload-induced heart failure. Accumulation of unrepaired SSB is observed in cardiomyocytes of the failing heart. Unrepaired SSB activates DDR and increases the expression of inflammatory cytokines through NF-κB signalling. Pressure overload-induced heart failure is more severe in the mice lacking XRCC1, an essential protein for SSB repair, which is rescued by blocking DDR activation through genetic deletion of ATM, suggesting the causative role of SSB accumulation and DDR activation in the pathogenesis of heart failure. Prevention of SSB accumulation or persistent DDR activation may become a new therapeutic strategy against heart failure.

Abstract
Although substantial improvements have been made in majority of cardiac disorders, heart failure (HF) remains a major health problem, with both increasing incidence and prevalence over the past decades. For that reason, the number of potential biomarkers that could contribute to diagnosis and treatment of HF patients is, almost exponentially, increasing over the recent years. The biomarkers that are, at the moment, more or less ready for use in everyday clinical practice, reflect different pathophysiological processes present in HF. In this review, seven groups of biomarkers associated to myocardial stretch (mid-regional proatrial natriuretic peptide, MR-proANP), myocyte injury (high-sensitive troponins, hs-cTn; heart-type fatty acid-binding protein, H-FABP; glutathione transferase P1, GSTP1), matrix remodeling (galectin-3; soluble isoform of suppression of tumorigenicity 2, sST2), inflammation (growth differentiation factor-15, GDF-15), renal dysfunction (neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, NGAL; kidney injury molecule-1, KIM-1), neurohumoral activation (adrenomedullin, MR-proADM; copeptin), and oxidative stress (ceruloplasmin; myeloperoxidase, MPO; 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, 8-OHdG; thioredoxin 1, Trx1) in HF will be overviewed. It is important to note that clinical value of individual biomarkers within the single time points in both diagnosis and outcome prediction in HF is limited. Hence, the future of biomarker application in HF lies in the multimarker panel strategy, which would include specific combination of biomarkers that reflect different pathophysiological processes underlying HF.

[PMID: 27920832 PMCID: PMC5129120 DOI: 10.1016/j.joa.2016.03.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2015] [Revised: 03/15/2016] [Accepted: 03/24/2016] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Amiodarone is associated with a number of significant adverse effects, including elevated transaminase levels, pulmonary fibrosis, arrhythmia, and thyroid dysfunction. Although thyroid dysfunction is considered to be a common and potentially serious adverse effect of amiodarone therapy, the exact pathogenesis remains unknown because of its complex manifestations. Therefore, the prevalence of, and risk factors for, amiodarone-induced thyroid dysfunction in Japanese patients were investigated in the present study. Methods A retrospective analysis of patients treated with amiodarone between January 2012 and December 2013 was performed. A total of 317 patients with euthyroidism, or subclinical hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, were enrolled in this study. Results After being treated with amiodarone, 30 (9.5%) and 60 patients (18.9%) developed amiodarone-induced hyperthyroidism and amiodarone-induced hypothyroidism, respectively. Ten (33.3%) patients with amiodarone-induced hyperthyroidism and 40 (66.6%) with amiodarone-induced hypothyroidism were diagnosed within two years of the initiation of amiodarone therapy. Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) [Adjusted odds ratio (OR) 3.30 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.26–8.90)], and cardiac sarcoidosis [Adjusted OR 6.47 (95% CI: 1.60–25.77)] were identified as predictors of amiodarone-induced hyperthyroidism. The baseline free thyroxine (T4) level [Adjusted OR 0.13 (95% CI: 0.03–0.68)], and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level [Adjusted OR1.47 (95% CI: 1.26–1.74)] were identified as predictors of amiodarone-induced hypothyroidism. Conclusion DCM and cardiac sarcoidosis were identified as risk factors for amiodarone-induced hyperthyroidism. Risk factors for amiodarone-induced hypothyroidism included higher baseline TSH level and lower baseline free T4 level, suggesting that subclinical hypothyroidism may be a potential risk factor for the development of amiodarone-induced hypothyroidism.

An oxidative stress biomarker, urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, predicts cardiovascular-related death after steroid therapy for patients with active cardiac sarcoidosis. Int J Cardiol 2016; 212:206-13. [PMID: 27043062 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2016.03.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2015] [Revised: 02/19/2016] [Accepted: 03/12/2016] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We investigated whether urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (U-8-OHdG), a marker of oxidative DNA damage, is a prognosticator of cardiovascular-related death in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis (CS). METHODS AND RESULTS In this prospective study, 30 consecutive patients were divided into the active CS (n=20) and non-active CS (n=10) groups, based on abnormal isotope accumulation in the heart on (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron-emission tomography/computed tomography ((18)F-FDG PET/CT) imaging. Nineteen patients in the active CS group underwent corticosteroid therapy. Before corticosteroid therapy initiation, U-8-OHdG, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), other biomarkers, and indices of cardiac function were measured. Patients were followed-up for a median of 48months. The primary endpoint was the incidence of cardiovascular-related death. During the follow-up period, in the corticosteroid-treated active CS group, 7 of 19 patients experienced cardiovascular-related death. By contrast, in the non-active CS group, 1 of 10 patients died from cardiovascular-related causes. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that U-8-OHdG and BNP were independent predictors for cardiovascular-related death. The cut-off values for predicting cardiovascular death in corticosteroid-treated patients with active CS were 19.1ng/mg·Cr and 209pg/mL for U-8-OHdG and BNP, respectively. Patients with a U-8-OHdG concentration ≥19.1ng/mg·Cr or a BNP concentration ≥209pg/mL had a significantly higher cardiovascular-related death risk, but U-8-OHdG had better predictive value compared with BNP. CONCLUSION These findings suggested that U-8-OHdG was a powerful predictor of cardiovascular-related death in patients with CS, suggesting that active CS patients with elevated U-8-OHdG levels might be resistant to corticosteroid therapy.

Increased oxidative stress contributes to cardiomyocyte dysfunction and death in patients with Fabry disease cardiomyopathy. Hum Pathol 2015; 46:1760-8. [PMID: 26362204 DOI: 10.1016/j.humpath.2015.07.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 36] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2015] [Revised: 06/17/2015] [Accepted: 07/15/2015] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Cardiac dysfunction of Fabry disease (FD) has been associated with myofilament damage and cell death as result of α-galactosidase A deficiency and globotriaosylceramide accumulation. We sought to evaluate the role of oxidative stress in FD cardiomyocyte dysfunction. Myocardial tissue from 18 patients with FD was investigated for the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and nitrotyrosine by immunohistochemistry. Western blot analysis for nitrotyrosine was also performed. Oxidative damage to DNA was investigated by immunostaining for 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), whereas apoptosis was evaluated by in situ ligation with hairpin probes. iNOS and nitrotyrosine expression was increased in FD hearts compared with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and normal controls. Remarkably, immunostaining was homogeneously expressed in FD male cardiomyocytes, whereas it was only detected in the affected cardiomyocytes of FD females. Western blot analysis confirmed an increase in FD cardiomyocyte protein nitration compared with controls. 8-OHdG was expressed in 25% of cardiomyocyte nuclei from FD patients, whereas it was absent in controls. The intensity of immunostaining for iNOS/nitrotyrosine correlated with 8-OHdG expression in cardiomyocyte nuclei. Apoptosis of FD cardiomyocytes was 187-fold higher than in controls, and apoptotic nuclei were positive for 8-OHdG. Cardiac dysfunction of FD reflects increased myocardial nitric oxide production with oxidative damage of cardiomyocyte myofilaments and DNA, causing cell dysfunction and death.

Abstract
Heart failure remains one of the most important problems in cardiology despite the progress in its treatment. A number of recent studies have demonstrated the relationship between the intensification of oxidative stress and chronic inflammation and the severity of left ventricular dysfunction, development of heart failure symptoms, and prediction of future cardiac events. Early detection of changes developing in the heart is key in improving the treatment's effectiveness. It appears that determining specific, sensitive biomarkers reflecting the complex pathophysiology of heart failure and using them to detect asymptomatic cardiac alterations may become a crucial screening tool, assisting in the identification of patients requiring further diagnostic examinations. This article presents an overview of the current knowledge of the role of oxidative stress and inflammation in heart failure; it also discusses the potential role of oxidative stress and inflammatory markers as prognostic factors in heart failure that may be used in screening tests.

Urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine as a novel biomarker of inflammatory activity in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis. Int J Cardiol 2015; 190:319-28.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammation and oxidative stress play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of cardiac sarcoidosis (SAR). We investigated whether urinary (U) 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG)--an oxidative DNA damage marker--was related to SAR inflammatory activity. METHODS U-8-OHdG levels were measured in 31 SAR patients, classified as active (n=17) or non-active (n=14) based on (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography ((18)F-FDG-PET/CT), 28 dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) patients, and 30 controls. In active SAR patients, U-8-OHdG levels were reexamined and compared with (18)F-FDG-PET/CT results at 6 months after corticosteroid treatment to assess therapeutic response. RESULTS Immunohistochemical examination of left ventricle (LV) autopsy samples from SAR patients revealed positive 8-OHdG staining in cardiomyocyte nuclei from LV sections showing (18)F-FDG accumulation on PET/CT, while serum 8-OHdG levels were significantly higher in the coronary sinus than in the aortic root only in active SAR patients. U-8-OHdG levels in SAR patients were higher than those in controls, and significantly higher in active SAR patients than in non-active SAR and DCM patients. U-8-OHdG was a powerful predictor of active SAR in receiver operating characteristic curve analysis (AUC, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.94-1.02; optimal cutoff value, 13.1 ng/mg creatinine), with a sensitivity of 88.2% and a specificity of 92.9%. U-8-OHdG levels in responders significantly decreased at 6 months after corticosteroid treatment initiation, in proportion with the decrease in the focal cardiac uptake of (18)F-FDG. CONCLUSIONS U-8-OHdG is a potentially clinically useful biomarker for evaluating inflammatory activity and monitoring the effectiveness of corticosteroid therapy in SAR patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Measurements of oxidative stress biomarkers in patients with heart failure (HF) have yielded controversial results. This study aimed at testing the hypothesis that circulating levels of the lipid peroxidation product 4-hydroxynonenal bound to thiol proteins (4HNE-P) are strongly associated with those of its potential precursors, namely n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). METHODS AND RESULTS Circulating levels of 4HNE-P were evaluated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in 71 control subjects and 61 ambulatory symptomatic HF patients along with various other clinically- and biochemically-relevant parameters, including other oxidative stress markers, and total levels of fatty acids from all classes, which reflect both free and bound to cholesterol, phospholipids and triglycerides. All HF patients had severe systolic functional impairment despite receiving optimal evidence-based therapies. Compared to controls, HF patients displayed markedly lower circulating levels of HDL- and LDL-cholesterol, which are major PUFA carriers, as well as of PUFA of the n-6 series, specifically linoleic acid (LA; P=0.001). Circulating 4HNE-P in HF patients was similar to controls, albeit multiple regression analysis revealed that LA was the only factor that was significantly associated with circulating 4HNE-P in the entire population (R (2)=0.086; P=0.02). In HF patients only, 4HNE-P was even more strongly associated with LA (P=0.003) and HDL-cholesterol (p<0.0002). Our results demonstrate that 4HNE-P levels, expressed relative to HDL-cholesterol, increase as HDL-cholesterol plasma levels decrease in the HF group only. CONCLUSION Results from this study emphasize the importance of considering changes in lipids and lipoproteins in the interpretation of measurements of lipid peroxidation products. Further studies appear warranted to explore the possibility that HDL-cholesterol particles may be a carrier of 4HNE adducts.

Abstract
Over the past 5 years, researchers have examined the utility of many experimental heart failure biomarkers that are not yet widely adopted clinically, to complement the role of B-type natriuretic peptide and its precursor. Candidate biomarkers have been identified from several different pathophysiologic categories, including markers of inflammation, myocyte necrosis, renal dysfunction, neurohumoral activation, oxidative stress and raised intracardiac pressure. Indeed, some biomarkers provide prognostic information that is independent of information obtained from conventional clinical and biomarker assessment. Moreover, some biomarkers studied help to identify dominant pathology that may predict responsiveness to specific therapies. Preliminary data also suggest a potential role for the development of comprehensive biomarker profiling models, integrating biomarkers from several categories to refine risk assessment.

Abstract
Background and Objectives The objective of this study was to determine if urinary levels of 8-iso-prostaglandin F2α (8-iso-PGF2α) and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanine (8-OHdG) could be used as markers of the oxidative stress in significant coronary artery disease (CAD). Subjects and Methods We conducted a case-control study in 104 subjects assessed by coronary angiography with the following diagnoses: 35 consecutive cases of significant CAD and 69 cases of non-CAD with stable angina. We compared the urinary levels of 8-iso-PGF 2α and 8-OHdG, as measured by immunoassay between the 2 groups. Results History of hypertension was significantly higher and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol level significantly lower in the CAD group compared with those in the non-CAD group. Median levels of 8-iso-PGF2α were significantly higher in the CAD group compared with the non-CAD group (9.2 vs. 6.0 ng/mg, p=0.001). There were no significant differences in 8-OHdG values between the 2 groups. The odds ratio of 8-iso-PGF2α for CAD in the highest tertile compared with that in the lowest tertile was 7.39 (95% confidence interval; 1.71-31.91). There was no significant difference in median values of 8-iso-PGF2α between single- and multi-vessel CAD. Conclusion Urinary 8-iso-PGF 2α was independently associated with significant CAD in this case-control study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress due to reactive oxygen species (ROS) is thought to play a considerable role in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury that impairs cardiac function. The present study examined oxidative damage in I/R injury and investigated the correlation between oxidative stress and impaired cardiac function after I/R injury of the isolated rat heart. METHODS Hearts isolated from male Sprague-Dawley rats were mounted on a Langendorff apparatus. Hearts arrested using St. Thomas cardioplegic solution and then they were reperfused. The hearts were divided into three groups depending on the frequency (0-2) of I/R. After I/R, left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), positive maximum left ventricular developing pressure (max LV dP/dt) and coronary flow (CF) were measured. Creatine kinase (CK) was measured in the coronary effluent and 8-hydroxy-2'deoxyguanosine (8OHdG), a marker of oxidative DNA damage, was measured. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) was measured from frozen myocardial tissue after experiment. RESULTS We immunohistochemically demonstrated and quantified levels of 8-OHdG after I/R injury of the heart. The frequency of I/R injury and cardiac dysfunction significantly and negatively correlated. The ATP products were similar among the three groups. The incidence of ventricular arrhythmias was not by affected oxidative stress. CONCLUSION The frequency of I/R injury had more of an effect on 8-OHdG products and on impaired cardiac function with less myocyte damage than ischemic duration within 30 minutes of ischemia.

Abstract
1. Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a common disabling disorder associated with thromboembolic events, the genesis of which is not yet fully understood. Nitric oxide (NO), derived from the vascular endothelium and platelets, has an important role in the physiological regulation of blood flow. It is generated from the amino acid L-arginine via NO synthase (NOS). 2. The main objective of the present study was to investigate NO production and its relationship with platelet aggregation, oxidative stress, inflammation and related amino acids in patients with moderate CHF. The expression and activity of NOS isoforms were analysed by western blotting and conversion of L-[(3)H]-arginine to L-[(3)H]-citrulline, respectively, in CHF patients (n = 12) and healthy controls (n = 15). Collagen- and ADP-induced platelet aggregation, oxidative stress (thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) formation and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity) and plasma levels of amino acids and inflammatory markers (fibrinogen and C-reactive protein (CRP)) were also determined. 3. Both collagen- and ADP-induced platelet aggregation were increased in CHF patients compared with controls. Platelets from CHF patients did not show any changes in NOS activity in the presence of overexpression of inducible NOS. Systemic and intraplatelet TBARS production was elevated, whereas SOD activity was decreased in CHF patients. l-arginine plasma concentrations were lower in CHF patients than in controls. Systemic levels of CRP and fibrinogen were increased in CHF patients. 4. The results show that, in patients with moderate CHF, there is platelet activation and reduced intraplatelet NO bioavailability due to oxidative stress, which suggests a role for platelets in the prothrombotic state.

Abstract
Oxidatively damaged DNA is implicated in various diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders, cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases as well as aging. Several methods have been developed to detect oxidatively damaged DNA. They include chromatographic techniques, the Comet assay, (32)P-postlabelling and immunochemical methods that use antibodies to detect oxidized lesions. In this review, we discuss the detection of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-29-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG), the most abundant oxidized nucleoside. This lesion is frequently used as a marker of exposure to oxidants, including environmental pollutants, as well as a potential marker of disease progression. We concentrate on studies published between the years 2000 and 2011 that used enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunohistochemistry to detect 8-oxodG in humans, laboratory animals and in cell lines. Oxidative damage observed in these organisms resulted from disease, exposure to environmental pollutants or from in vitro treatment with various chemical and physical factors.

Abstract
Over the past several decades, investigations in humans and animal models of heart failure (HF) have provided substantial evidence that oxidative stress is increased in HF and contributes to disease progression. The high metabolic activity of cardiac myocytes makes these cells active sources of reactive oxygen species. Work in cell and animal models clearly demonstrates that oxidative stress activates processes such as changes in gene expression and cell death that are now accepted components of myocardial remodeling and HF. Antioxidants prevent progressive remodeling and even improve cardiac function in animal models of HF. It is therefore disappointing that to date no antioxidant strategy has translated to a therapeutic in the HF clinic. Possible explanations, including inadequate appreciation of the critical disease-modifying sources of reactive oxygen species, the choice of the wrong antioxidant strategy, or incomplete understanding of individual variability in human antioxidant defenses in this brief review.

Abstract
The multifunctional Ca(2+)- and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) is now recognized to play a central role in pathological events in the cardiovascular system. CaMKII has diverse downstream targets that promote vascular disease, heart failure, and arrhythmias, so improved understanding of CaMKII signaling has the potential to lead to new therapies for cardiovascular disease. CaMKII is a multimeric serine-threonine kinase that is initially activated by binding calcified calmodulin (Ca(2+)/CaM). Under conditions of sustained exposure to elevated Ca(2+)/CaM, CaMKII transitions into a Ca(2+)/CaM-autonomous enzyme by two distinct but parallel processes. Autophosphorylation of threonine-287 in the CaMKII regulatory domain "traps" CaMKII into an open configuration even after Ca(2+)/CaM unbinding. More recently, our group identified a pair of methionines (281/282) in the CaMKII regulatory domain that undergo a partially reversible oxidation which, like autophosphorylation, prevents CaMKII from inactivating after Ca(2+)/CaM unbinding. Here we review roles of CaMKII in cardiovascular disease with an eye to understanding how CaMKII may act as a transduction signal to connect pro-oxidant conditions into specific downstream pathological effects that are relevant to rare and common forms of cardiovascular disease.
