Abstract
This study aimed to explore the regulatory mechanism of metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450 during the differentiation process of chicken embryonic stem cells (ESCs) into spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) and consummate the induction differentiation system of chicken embryonic stem cells (cESCs) into SSCs in vitro. We performed RNA-Seq in highly purified male ESCs, male primordial germ cells (PGCs), and SSCs that are associated with the male germ cell differentiation. Thereinto, the metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450 was selected and analyzed with Venny among male ESC vs male PGC, male PGC vs SSC, and male ESC vs SSC groups and several candidates differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were excavated. Finally, quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) detected related DEGs under the condition of retinoic acid (RA) induction in vitro, and the expressions were compared with RNA-Seq. By knocking down CYP1A1, we detected the effect of CYP1A1-mediated metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450 on male germ cell differentiation by qRT-PCR and immunocytochemistry. Results showed that 17,742 DEGs were found during differentiation of ESCs into SSCs and enriched in 72 differently significant pathways. Thereinto, the metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450 was involved in the whole differentiation process of ESCs into SSCs and several candidate DEGs: CYP1A1, CYP3A4, CYP2D6, ALDH3B1, and ALDH1A3 were expressed with the same trend with RNA-Seq. Knockdown of CYP1A1 caused male germ cell differentiation under restrictions. Our findings showed that the metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450 was significantly different during the process of male germ cell differentiation and was persistently activated when we induced cESCs to differentiate into SSCs with RA in vitro, which illustrated that the metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450 played a crucial role in the differentiation process of ESCs into SSCs.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is one of the major mechanisms implicated in carbon ion irradiation. Curcumin is a natural phenolic compound with impressive antioxidant properties. What's more, curcumin is recently proved to exert its effects partly radioprotection. In vivo, we investigated the protective effects of curcumin against (12)C(6+)radiation-induced cerebral injury. Our results showed that 4Gy heavy ion radiation-induced spatial strategy and memory decline and reduction of brain superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity levels were all consistently improved by curcumin, and the augmentation of cerebral malonaldehyde (MDA) was lowered by curcumin. Furthermore, both the cerebral cells nuclear erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) protein and three typically recognized Nrf2 downstream genes, NAD(P)H quinine oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), and γ-glutamyl cysteine synthetase (γ-GCS) were consistently up-regulated in curcumin-pretreated mice. Our study confirmed the antagonistic roles of curcumin to counteract radiation-induced cerebral injury in vivo and suggested that the potent Nrf2 activation capability might be valuable for the protective effects of curcumin against radiation. This provides a potential useful radioprotection dietary component for human populations.

Abstract
Growing evidence supports the critical role of lipid peroxidation products in the control of cell proliferation. In previous studies we demonstrated the efficient restriction of the proliferation rate in several cell lines resulting from the in vitro treatment with endogenous lipid polar components of cell membranes. Among these, 9-hydroxystearic acid (9-HSA), a primary intermediate of lipid peroxidation, induced a significant arrest in G0/G1 in HT29 colon cancer cells. In response to 9-HSA treatment of HT29 we observed cell growth arrest and increase in p21(WAF1) expression both at the transcriptional and the translational levels. Growth of p21(WAF1)-deleted HCT116 human colon carcinoma cells was not inhibited by 9-HSA. We present evidence that p21(WAF1) is required for 9-HSA mediated growth arrest in human colon carcinoma cells.

Abstract
[Arg(6), D-Trp(7,9), N(me)Phe(8)]-substance P (6-11) (antagonist G) inhibits small cell lung cancer (SCLC) growth and is entering Phase II clinical investigation for the treatment of SCLC. As well as acting as a neuropeptide receptor antagonist, antagonist G stimulates c-jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK) activity and apoptosis in SCLC cells. We extend these findings and show that the stimulation of JNK and apoptosis by antagonist G is dependent upon the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) being inhibited either by anoxia or the presence of N-acetyl cysteine (n-AC). Antagonist G is not intrinsically a free radical oxygen donor but stimulates free radical generation specifically within SCLC cells (6.2-fold) and increases the activity of the redox-sensitive transcription factor AP-1 by 61%. In keeping with this, antagonist G reduces cellular glutathione (GSH) levels (38% reduction) and stimulates ceramide production and lipid peroxidation (112% increase). At plasma concentrations achieved clinically in the phase I studies, antagonist G augments, more than additively, growth inhibition induced by etoposide. Our results suggest that antagonist G may be particularly effective as an additional treatment with standard chemotherapy in SCLC. These novel findings will be important for the clinical application of this new and exciting compound and for the future drug development of new agents to treat this aggressive cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES An increasing amount of experimental and epidemiological evidence implicates the involvement of oxygen derived radicals in the pathogenesis of cancer development. Oxygen derived radicals are able to cause damage to membranes, mitochondria, and macromolecules including proteins, lipids and DNA. Accumulation of DNA damages has been suggested to contribute to carcinogenesis. It would, therefore, be advantageous to pinpoint the effects of oxygen derived radicals in cancer development. DESIGN AND METHODS In the present study, we investigated the relationship between oxidative stress and breast cancer development in tissue level. Breast cancer is the most common malignant disease in Western women. Twenty-one breast cancer patients, who underwent radical mastectomy and diagnosed with infiltrative ductal carcinoma, were used in the study. We determined coenzyme Q10 (Q) concentrations, antioxidant enzyme activities (mitochondrial and total superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), catalase), and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in tumor and surrounding tumor-free tissues. RESULTS Q concentrations in tumor tissues significantly decreased as compared to the surrounding normal tissues (p < 0.001). Higher MDA levels were observed in tumor tissues than noncancerous tissues (p < 0.001). The activities of MnSOD, total SOD, GSH-Px and catalase in tumor tissues significantly increased (p < 0.001) compared to the controls. CONCLUSIONS These findings may support that reactive oxygen species increased in malignant cells, and may cause overexpression of antioxidant enzymes and the consumption of coenzyme Q10. Increased antioxidant enzyme activities may be related with the susceptibility of cells to carcinogenic agents and the response of tumor cells to the chemotherapeutic agents. Administration of coenzyme Q10 by nutrition may induce the protective effect of coenzyme Q10 on breast tissue.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate a possible relationship between oxidative stress and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF beta 1) expression in human colon adenocarcinoma. Crohn's disease, an inflammatory pathology of the intestine often regarded to as precancerous, was also examined. Indices of impaired redox balance were monitored in blood and in bioptic samples from 10 adult patients with adenocarcinoma of the colon and from five patients with Crohn's disease. On tissue samples TGF beta 1 mRNA expression was also determined. Ten healthy adults provided normal reference values for plasma indices of oxidative stress, and normal tissue distant from the lesions was used for comparative analysis. Fluorescent adducts with plasma proteins of malonaldehyde (MDA) and 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) were significantly lower than controls in the plasma from cancer patients and significantly higher in the plasma from Crohn's patients. In adenocarcinoma biopsies, susceptibility to lipid peroxidation processes and TGF beta 1 expression were below the relative control; in Crohn's disease, lipid peroxidation and cytokine expression were both above the relative control. The findings obtained suggest the existence of an association between oxidative damage and fibrogenic cytokine expression in the human intestine. Further studies are needed to conclusively prove the correlation between the two events.

Abstract
Using a procedure aimed at isolation of genes that are inactivated during nickel-induced carcinogenesis in Chinese hamster cells, a homolog of genes encoding human and mouse heme containing peroxidases has been cloned. Northern blot analysis of normal cultured fibroblasts and two nickel-transformed cell lines confirmed that this gene was expressed in normal but not in transformed cells. Nickel-transformed cells also tested negative for peroxidase activity using a sensitive fluorescence assay. Cultured embryo cells or fibroblasts that express peroxidase activity and their nickel-transformed peroxidase-deficient counterparts were employed to investigate the role of peroxidase-catalyzed processes in cytotoxicity induced by tert-butyl hydroperoxide or cumene hydroperoxide. It has been found that peroxidase-deficient cells were significantly more resistant to cytotoxic effect of these compounds suggesting that cytotoxic effect of hydroperoxides may be mediated in part by free radicals generated in the course of peroxidase-catalyzed reactions.

Abstract
The peroxidation of liposomes by a haem peroxidase and hydrogen peroxide in the presence of indole-3-acetic acid and derivatives was investigated. It was found that these compounds can accelerate the lipid peroxidation up to 65 fold and this is attributed to the formation of peroxyl radicals that may react with the lipids, possibly by hydrogen abstraction. The peroxyl radicals are formed by peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of the enhancers to radical cations which undergo cleavage of the carbon-carbon bond on the side-chain to yield CO2 and carbon-centred radicals that rapidly add oxygen. In competition with decarboxylation, the radical cations deprotonate reversibly from the N1 position. Rates of decarboxylation, pka values and rate of reaction with the peroxidase compound I indicate consistent substituent effects which, however, can not be quantitatively related to the usual Hammett or Brown parameters. Assuming that the rate of decarboxylation of the radical cations taken is a measure of the electron density of the molecule (or radical), it is found that the efficiency of these compounds as enhancers of lipid peroxidation increases with increasing electron density, suggesting that, at least in the model system, the oxidation of the substrates is the limiting step in causing lipid peroxidation.

Abstract
Fatty acids (FAs) have long been recognized for their nutritional value in the absence of glucose, and as necessary components of cell membranes. However, FAs have other effects on cells that may be less familiar. Polyunsaturated FAs of dietary origin (n-6 and n-3) cannot be synthesized by mammals, and are termed 'essential' because they are required for the optimal biologic function of specialized cells and tissues. However, they do not appear to be necessary for normal growth and metabolism of a variety of cells in culture. The essential fatty acids (EFAs) have received increased attention in recent years due to their presumed involvement in cardiovascular disorders and in cancers of the breast, pancreas, colon and prostate. Many in vitro systems have emerged which either examine the role of EFAs in human disease directly, or utilize EFAs to mimic the in vivo cellular environment. The effects of EFAs on cells are both direct and indirect. As components of membrane phospholipids, and due to their varying structural and physical properties, EFAs can alter membrane fluidity, at least in the local environment, and affect any process that is mediated via the membrane. EFAs containing 20 carbons and at least three double bonds can be enzymatically converted to eicosanoid hormones, which play important roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. Alternatively, EFAs released into cells from phospholipids can act as second messengers that activate protein kinase C. Furthermore, susceptibility to oxidative damage increases with the degree of unsaturation, a complication that merits consideration because lipid peroxidation can lead to a variety of substances with toxic and mutagenic properties. The effects of EFAs on cultured cells are illustrated using the responses of normal and tumor human mammary epithelial cells. A thorough evaluation of EFA effects on commercially important cells could be used to advantage in the biotechnology industry by identifying EFA supplements that lead to improved cell growth and/or productivity.

Abstract
Decreased dietary intake of fat and/or calories generally results in a lower incidence of mammary gland tumors in rodents. Feeding of either low-fat or calorie-restricted diets to rats also has been shown to result in decreased levels of oxidative DNA damage. Since oxidative DNA damage is suggested to have a role in carcinogenesis, this may be one mechanism by which dietary change can reduce cancer risk. The effects of calorie-restricted diets on both oxidative DNA damage levels and mammary gland tumor incidence are generally more pronounced than that of low-fat diets. There is, however, some difficulty in defining what amount of fat should be used to prepare 'low-fat' and 'high-fat' rodent diets as well as what a suitable fat intake for control diets should be in studies that examine the effects of dietary fat and/or calories on tumorigenesis. In particular, the promoting effects of dietary fat may be exerted only up to a certain level of fat, above which no further effect is observed. Another difficulty in the interpretation of the results is that there may be a time-dependent effect of high fat diets on oxidative damage, with increased damage resulting only when the diets are fed for longer periods of time. The appropriate experimental approach to model human dietary exposures therefore remains to be determined. Although the effects of caloric intake on mammary gland tumorigenesis appear to be more pronounced than that of fat intake, low-fat diets still may be useful as a preventive measure in human populations to reduce breast cancer risk for individuals who cannot safely reduce their caloric intake.

Abstract
DNA damage induced by oxidants includes formation of DNA strand breaks as well as oxidative damage to DNA bases. We quantified both forms of DNA damage concurrently in two model human breast epithelial cell lines treated with hydrogen peroxide to compare the dose-dependent induction of each form of DNA damage with growth inhibition. Antioxidant defenses also were quantified. MCF-7 breast cancer cells had relatively higher levels of non-protein thiols, oxidized glutathione (GSSG) reductase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase than did the MCF-10A line of immortalized, but not transformed, human breast epithelial cells. The levels of antioxidant defenses were not predictive of endogenous oxidative DNA damage levels nor of toxicity and DNA damage induced by hydrogen peroxide. The endogenous levels of 5-hydroxymethyl-2'-deoxyuridine were higher in MCF-7 than MCF-10A cells. The cells were treated with 10-200 microM hydrogen peroxide for 15 min at 37 degrees C in complete media. Low concentrations of hydrogen peroxide were growth stimulatory to both cell lines. At higher concentrations, growth inhibition by hydrogen peroxide was greater in MCF-7 than in MCF-10A cells. Accordingly, induction of both single-strand DNA breaks and 5-hydroxymethyl-2'-deoxyuridine in DNA was greater in MCF-7 than MCF-10A cells. In both cell lines, the dose-dependent induction of single-strand breaks paralleled growth inhibition more closely than did formation of 5-hydroxymethyl-2'-deoxyuridine.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation is an important mechanism in free radical mediated cell injury. It can damage cell membranes directly and the reactive carbonyl products may spread the damage far from the original site of radical production. It has long been considered to be involved in various toxic tissue injuries and in certain disease processes, including cancer. Paradoxically, cancer cells are very resistant to lipid peroxidation. Recently, it has been suggested that lipid peroxidation may exert more subtle effects than was previously thought possible, by influencing gene expression.

Abstract
Several studies point to the existence of an inverse correlation between cellular lipid peroxidation and both cell proliferation and neoplastic transformation. In anaplastic cell lines products of membrane lipid peroxidation are very low or undetectable. Furthermore numerous results demonstrate effect of lipid peroxidation products on central biochemical pathways and intracellular signalling at physiological concentrations. 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) is one of the most active products of lipid peroxidation. The restoration of HNE physiological concentrations in neoplastic cells may inhibit cell proliferation and modulate cell re-differentiation. This review try to summarize and critically discuss the effects of physiological concentrations of HNE on normal and neoplastic cell line.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation products have recently been proposed among the possible regulators of tumour cell growth. According to our current working hypothesis, the greatly diminished content of such products in tumour cells might relieve the inhibition of cell growth thus leading to uncontrolled proliferation. Hydroperoxy- and hydroxy derivatives of long chain fatty acids have been identified and determined in normal and tumour cells. Among these, hydroxystearic acid (HSA) has been shown to have a different cytostatic and cytotoxic effect when administered to murine lung carcinoma cells or to human colon tumour cells. It interferes with cell cycle kinetics, blocking the murine cells in G2-M and the human ones in G0-G1. The molecular target of HSA in both cell lines has been shown to be the cdc2 kinase complex. The results so far obtained in tumour as long as in normal highly proliferating cells do not exclude a potential future use of this class of compounds as selective anti tumour drugs.
