Abstract
Expression of LOX-1 and NOX1 genes in the human umbilical vein endotheliocytes (HUVECs) cultured in the presence of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) modified with various natural dicarbonyls was investigated for the first time. It was found that among the investigated dicarbonyl-modified LDLs (malondialdehyde (MDA)-modified LDLs, glyoxal-modified LDLs, and methylglyoxal-modified LDLs), the MDA-modified LDLs caused the greatest induction of the LOX-1 and NOX1 genes, as well as of the genes of antioxidant enzymes and genes of proapoptotic factors in HUVECs. Key role of the dicarbonyl-modified LDLs in the molecular mechanisms of vascular wall damage and endothelial dysfunction is discussed.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to study the effects of thymosin-1 alpha (Tα1) on the anti-inflammatory response of RAW 264.7 macrophages cultured in the presence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from the walls of gram-negative bacteria. As well, we evaluated production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the activity of the NF-κB and SAPK/JNK signaling pathways. In addition, the level of expression of a number of genes that regulate cell apoptosis, as well as the activity of receptors involved in the pro-inflammatory response, was determined. First, the addition of Tα1 normalized the level of cytokine production to varying degrees, with a particularly noticeable effect on IL-1β and IL-6. Second, the addition of Tα1 normalized the activity of the NF-κB and SAPK/JNK signaling cascades and the expression of the Tlr4 gene. Third, Tα1 significantly reduced p53 and the activity of the P53 gene, which is a marker of cell apoptosis. Fourth, it was shown that the increase in Ar-1 gene expression under the influence of LPS was significantly reduced using Tα1. Thus, it was found that the presence of Tα1 in the RAW 264.7 cell culture medium significantly reduced the level of the pro-inflammatory response of cells.

Abstract
Ischemia-reperfusion is a cascade of complex and interrelated pathological processes underlying many human diseases, including such socially significant diseases as stroke, myocardial infarction, acute renal failure, etc. The present review considers modern ideas about the main biochemical and signal-regulatory processes in the cell under conditions of ischemia-reperfusion. Both generally accepted and newly developed ways of ischemia-reperfusion lesion correction aimed at different chains of this pathological process are considered.

Abstract
This study aimed to assess the effects of the immunomodulator thymulin, a thymic peptide with anti-inflammatory effects, and peroxiredoxin 6 (Prdx6), an antioxidant enzyme with dual peroxidase and phospholipase A2 activities, on the blood‒brain barrier (BBB) condition and general health status of animals with relapsing-remitting experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), which is a model of multiple sclerosis in humans. Both thymulin and Prdx6 significantly improved the condition of the BBB, which was impaired by EAE induction, as measured by Evans blue dye accumulation, tight-junction protein loss in brain tissue, and lymphocyte infiltration through the BBB. The effect was associated with significant amelioration of EAE symptoms. Thymulin treatment was accompanied by a decrease in immune cell activation as judged by interleukin-6, -17, and interferon-gamma cytokine levels in serum and NF-kappaB cascade activation in splenocytes of mice with EAE. Prdx6 did not induce significant immunomodulatory effects but abruptly decreased EAE-induced NOX1 and NOX4 gene expression in brain tissue, which may be one of the possible mechanisms of its beneficial effects on BBB conditions and health status. The simultaneous administration of thymulin and Prdx6 resulted in complete symptomatic restoration of mice with EAE. The results demonstrate prospective strategies for multiple sclerosis treatment.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxin 6 (Prdx6) is a multifunctional eukaryotic antioxidant enzyme. Mammalian Prdx6 possesses peroxidase activity against a wide range of organic and inorganic hydroperoxides, as well as exhibits phospholipase A2 (aiPLA2) activity, which plays an important role in the reduction of oxidized phospholipids and cell membrane remodeling. Exogenous Prdx6 has recently been shown to be able to penetrate inside the cell. We hypothesized that this entry may be due to the phospholipase activity of Prdx6. Experiments using exogenous Prdx6 in three cell lines (3T3, A549, RAW 264.7) demonstrated that it is the phospholipase activity that promotes its penetration into the cell. Overoxidation of Prdx6 led to a suppression of the peroxidase activity and a 3-to-4-fold growth of aiPLA2, which enhanced the efficiency of its transmembrane transport into the cells by up to 15 times. A mutant form of Prdx6-S32A with an inactivated phospholipase center turned out to be unable to enter the cells in both the reduced and oxidized state of the peroxidase active center. Previously, we have shown that exogenous Prdx6 has a significant radioprotective action. However, the role of phospholipase activity in the radioprotective effects of Prdx6 remained unstudied. Trials with the mutant Prdx6-S32A form, with the use of a total irradiation model in mice, showed a nearly 50% reduction of the radioprotective effect upon aiPLA2 loss. Such a significant decrease in the radioprotective action may be due to the inability of Prdx6-S32A to penetrate animal cells, which prevents its reduction by the natural intracellular reducing agent glutathione S-transferase (πGST) and lowers the efficiency of elimination of peroxides formed from the effect of ionizing radiation. Thus, phospholipase activity may play an important role in the reduction of oxidized Prdx6 and manifestation of its antioxidant properties.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxin 6 (Prdx6) is an important antioxidant enzyme with multiple functions in the cell. Prdx6 neutralizes a wide range of hydroperoxides, participates in phospholipid metabolism and cell membrane repair, and in transmission of intracellular and intercellular signals. Disruption of normal Prdx6 expression in the cell leads to the development of pathological conditions. Decrease in the Prdx6 concentration leads to increase in oxidative damage to the cell. At the same time, hyperproduction of Prdx6 is associated with increase in antioxidant status, suppression of apoptosis, and carcinogenesis. Currently, mechanisms of carcinogenic action of peroxiredoxins are poorly understood. In this work we established that the 3-4-fold increase in Prdx6 production in mouse embryonic fibroblast 3T3 cells leads to the 4-5-fold decrease in the level of oncosuppressor p53. At the same time, hyperproduction of Prdx6 leads to the increased expression of RELA and HIF1A, which have oncogenic effects. The 3-4-fold increase in intracellular Prdx6 increases intensity of cell proliferation by 20-30%, promotes increase in antioxidant activity by 30-50%, and increases radioresistance of the transfected 3T3 cells by 30-40%. Increase of the level of intranuclear Prdx6 leads to the decrease in expression of the DNA repair genes in response to radiation, indicating decrease in the genomic DNA damage. This work discusses possible molecular mechanisms of p53 suppression during Prdx6 hyperproduction, which could be used in the development of new approaches in cancer therapy.

Abstract
It was established that recombinant human peroxiredoxins (Prx1, Prx2, Prx4, and Prx6) inhibit natural dicarbonyls formed during free radical peroxidation of unsaturated lipids (malonic dialdehyde) and oxidative transformations of glucose (glyoxal and methylglyoxal). A possible role of the decrease in the activity of peroxiredoxins under oxidative and carbonyl stress is discussed as an important factor that triggers the molecular mechanisms of vascular wall damage in atherosclerosis and diabetes mellitus.
