Abstract
Responses of plant cells to reactive oxygen species (ROS), e.g., reprogramming of defense genes or progression of cell death, should include the ROS signal transmission to target proteins, but the biochemistry of this process is largely unknown. Lipid peroxide-derived α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones (reactive carbonyl species; RCS), downstream products of ROS stimuli, are recently emerging endogenous agents that can mediate ROS signal to proteins via covalent modification. The involvement of RCS in certain ROS signaling in plants (oxidative injury of leaves and roots, ROS-induced programmed cell death, senescence, and abscisic acid and auxin signaling) has been verified by the determination of RCS with the use of conventional HPLC. Because distinct kinds of RCS act differently in the cell and so are metabolized, identification and quantification of each RCS in plant tissues provide central information to decipher biochemical mechanisms of plant responses to ROS. This article illustrates practical methods of plant sample preparation and extraction and analysis of RCS.

Abstract
Oxidative stress due to mitochondrial produced reactive oxygen species is a major cause of damage seen in many retinal degenerative diseases. Caffeic acid phenylethyl ester (CAPE) is protective agent in multiple tissues and is reported to have anti-oxidant properties. Systemically applied CAPE protected retinal ganglion cells from ischemic injury induced by increased intraocular pressure. CAPE provided complete protection for ARPE19 retinal pigment epithelial cells against tert-butyl hydrogen peroxide and reduced both basal and LPS-stimulated ROS production. The major effect of CAPE was mediated by the mitochondrial uncoupling protein UCP2 since both pharmacological inhibition of UCP2 and siRNA-induced knockdown removed the ability of CAPE to block ROS production. Based on common structural features, CAPE may be acting as a mimetic of the natural UCP2 homeostatic regulator 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal. CAPE may provide a valuable tool to treat oxidative stress-related damage in retinal and other degenerative diseases.

Abstract
Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell necrosis, as a consequence of Fe(II)-dependent lipid peroxidation. Although ferroptosis has been linked to cancer cell death, neurodegeneration and reperfusion injury, physiological roles of ferroptosis have not been elucidated to date mostly due to the lack of appropriate methodologies. Here, we show that 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified proteins detected by a HNEJ-1 mouse monoclonal antibody is a robust immunohistochemical technology to locate ferroptosis in tissues in combination with morphological nuclear information, based on various models of ferroptosis, including erastin-induced cysteine-deprivation, conditional Gpx4 knockout and Fe(II)-dependent renal tubular injury, as well as other types of regulated cell death. Specificity of HNEJ-1 with ferroptosis was endorsed by non-selective identification of HNE-modified proteins in an Fe(II)-dependent renal tubular injury model. We further comprehensively searched for signs of ferroptosis in different developmental stages of Fischer-344 rats from E9.5-2.5 years of age. We observed that there was a significant age-dependent increase in ferroptosis in the kidney, spleen, liver, ovary, uterus, cerebellum and bone marrow, which was accompanied by iron accumulation. Not only phagocytic cells but also parenchymal cells were affected. Epidermal ferroptosis in ageing SAMP8 mice was significantly promoted by high-fat or carbohydrate-restricted diets. During embryogenesis of Fischer-344 rats, we found ferroptosis in nucleated erythrocytes at E13.5, which disappeared in enucleated erythrocytes at E18.5. Administration of a ferroptosis inhibitor, liproxstatin-1, significantly delayed erythrocyte enucleation. Therefore, our results demonstrate for the first time the involvement of ferroptosis in physiological processes, such as embryonic erythropoiesis and aging, suggesting the evolutionally acquired mechanism and the inevitable side effects, respectively.

Abstract
This study was designed to reveal the protective effects of dietary supplementation of curcumin against renal cell tumours and oxidative stress induced by renal carcinogen iron nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) in ddY male mice. The results showed that mice treated with a renal carcinogen, Fe-NTA, a 35% renal cell tumour incidence was noticed, whereas renal cell tumour occurrence was elevated to 80% in Fe-NTA promoted and N-diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-initiated mice as compared with saline- treated mice. No incidence of tumours has been observed in DEN-initiated non-promoted mice. Diet complemented with 0.5% and 1.0% curcumin fed prior to, during and after treatment with Fe-NTA in DEN-initiated animals, tumour incidence was reduced dose-dependently to about 45% and 30% respectively. Immunohistochemical studies also revealed the increased formation of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified protein adducts and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in kidney tissue of mice treated with an intraperitoneal injection of Fe-NTA (6.0 mg Fe/kg body weight.). Furthermore, Fe-NTA treatment of mice also resulted in significant elevation of malondialdehyde (MDA), serum urea, and creatinine and decreases renal glutathione. However, the changes in most of these parameters were attenuated dose-dependently by prophylactic treatment of animals with 0.5% and 1% curcumin diet, this may be due to its antioxidative impact of curcumin. These results suggest that intake of curcumin is beneficial for the prevention of renal cell tumours and oxidative stress damage mediated by renal carcinogen, Fe-NTA.

Abstract
Astaxanthin is a carotenoid that has potent protective effects on diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in diabetic mice models. DNA microarray study clearly demonstrated the involvement of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation pathway in the renal glomerular cells of diabetic mice and also showed that the expression of upregulated genes associated with this pathway was decreased by the treatment with astaxanthin. Proteomic analysis confirmed that the increases of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)- and Nε-(hexanonyl)lysine (HEL)-modified proteins were inhibited by the treatment with astaxanthin. These results demonstrated that astaxanthin exerts a protective effect against hyperglycemia-induced DKD by attenuating mitochondrial oxidative stress and subsequent cellular dysfunction.

Abstract
Premature placental senescence is a hallmark of pregnancy-related disorders such as intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and preeclampsia (PE), two major cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. Oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation are involved in the pathogenesis of PE and IUGR, and may play a role in placental aging. In this study, we investigated whether 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), a lipid peroxidation-derived aldehyde present in preeclamptic placentas, may contribute to premature senescence in placenta-related complications. Placentas from PE-affected women, exhibited several senescence patterns, such as an increased expression of phosphorylated (serine-139) histone γH2AX, a sensitive marker of double-stranded DNA breaks, the presence of lipofuscin granules, and an accumulation of high molecular weight cross-linked and ubiquitinated proteins. PE placentas showed an accumulation of acetylated proteins consistent with the presence of HNE-adducts on sirtuin 1 (SIRT1). Likewise, oxidative stress and senescence markers together with SIRT1 modification by HNE, were observed in murine placentas from mice treated with lipopolysaccharide during gestation and used as models of IUGR. The addition of HNE and ONE (4-oxo-2-nonenal), to cultured HTR-8/SVneo human trophoblasts activated the senescence-associated- β-galactosidase, and generated an accumulation of acetylated proteins, consistent with a modification of SIRT1 by HNE. Altogether, these data emphasize the role of HNE and lipid peroxidation-derived aldehydes in premature placental senescence in PE and IUGR, and more generally in pathological pregnancies.

Abstract
Diabetes-induced coronary endothelial cell (CEC) dysfunction contributes to diabetic heart diseases. Angiotensin II (Ang II), a vasoactive hormone, is upregulated in diabetes, and is reported to increase oxidative stress in CECs. 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4HNE), a key lipid peroxidation product, causes cellular dysfunction by forming adducts with proteins. By detoxifying 4HNE, aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) 2 reduces 4HNE mediated proteotoxicity and confers cytoprotection. Thus, we hypothesize that ALDH2 improves Ang II-mediated defective CEC angiogenesis by decreasing 4HNE-mediated cytotoxicity. To test our hypothesis, we treated the cultured mouse CECs (MCECs) with Ang II (0.1, 1 and 10 μM) for 2, 4 and 6 h. Next, we treated MCECs with Alda-1 (10 μM), an ALDH2 activator or disulfiram (2.5 μM)/ALDH2 siRNA (1.25 nM), the ALDH2 inhibitors, or blockers of angiotensin II type-1 and 2 receptors i.e. Losartan and PD0123319 respectively before challenging MCECs with 10 μM Ang II. We found that 10 μM Ang II decreased tube formation in MCECs with in vitro angiogenesis assay (P < .0005 vs control). 10 μM Ang II downregulated the levels of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR1) (p < .005 for mRNA and P < .05 for protein) and VEGFR2 (p < .05 for mRNA and P < .005 for protein) as well as upregulated the levels of angiotensin II type-2 receptor (AT2R) (p < .05 for mRNA and P < .005 for protein) and 4HNE-adducts (P < .05 for protein) in cultured MCECs, compared to controls. ALDH2 inhibition with disulfiram/ALDH2 siRNA exacerbated 10 μM Ang II-induced decrease in coronary angiogenesis (P < .005) by decreasing the levels of VEGFR1 (P < .005 for mRNA and P < .05 for protein) and VEGFR2 (P < .05 for both mRNA and protein) and increasing the levels of AT2R (P < .05 for both mRNA and protein) and 4HNE-adducts (P < .05 for protein) relative to Ang II alone. AT2R inhibition per se improved angiogenesis in MCECs. Additionally, enhancing ALDH2 activity with Alda 1 rescued Ang II-induced decrease in angiogenesis by increasing the levels of VEGFR1, VEGFR2 and decreasing the levels of AT2R. In summary, ALDH2 can be an important target in reducing 4HNE-induced proteotoxicity and improving angiogenesis in MCECs. Finally, we conclude ALDH2 activation can be a therapeutic strategy to improve coronary angiogenesis to ameliorate cardiometabolic diseases.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is a degenerative disease characterized by lesions that develop in the wall of large- and medium-sized arteries due to the accumulation of low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) in the intima. A growing bulk of evidence suggests that cholesterol oxidation products, known as oxysterols, and the aldehyde 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), the major pro-atherogenic components of oxidized LDLs, significantly contribute to atherosclerotic plaque progression and destabilization, with eventual plaque rupture. The involvement of certain members of the protein convertase subtilisin/kexin proteases (PCSKs) in atherosclerosis has been recently hypothesized. Among them, PCSK6 has been associated with plaque instability, mainly thanks to its ability to stimulate the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) involved in extracellular matrix remodeling and to enhance inflammation. In U937 promonocytic cells and in human umbilical vein endothelial cells, an oxysterol mixture and HNE were able to up-regulate the level and activity of PCSK6, resulting in MMP-9 activation as demonstrated by PCSK6 silencing. Inflammation, enhanced by these lipid oxidation products, plays a key role in the up-regulation of PCSK6 activity as demonstrated by cell pretreatment with NS-398, with epigallocatechin gallate or with acetylsalicylic acid, all with anti-inflammatory effects. For the first time, we demonstrated that both oxysterols and HNE, which substantially accumulate in the atherosclerotic plaque, up-regulate the activity of PCSK6. Of note, we also suggest a potential association between PCSK6 activity and MMP-9 activation, pointing out that PCSK6 could contribute to atherosclerotic plaque development.

Abstract
Because of the large diversity in processed meat products and the potential involvement of oxidation processes in the association between red and processed meat consumption and chronic diseases, the concentration of oxidation products after gastrointestinal digestion of commercial luncheon meat products was investigated. A broad spectrum of meat products (n = 24), displaying large variation in macro- and micronutrient composition and processing procedures, was digested in vitro by simulating digestion fluids of the human gastrointestinal tract. Lipid and protein oxidation was assessed in the meat products before digestion and in the corresponding digests by measurement of free malondialdehyde, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, hexanal and protein carbonyl compounds. Compared to an unprocessed cooked pork mince, that was included as a reference in the digestion experiment, levels of lipid oxidation products were low in the digests of most meat products. Only the digests of Parma ham had slightly higher or comparable levels as the reference pork. In contrast, protein carbonyl compounds were comparable or up to 6 times higher in the processed meat products compared to the reference pork. Particularly raw-cooked and precooked-cooked meat products and corresponding digests had higher protein carbonyl levels, but also lower protein contents and higher fat to protein ratios. In conclusion, most luncheon meat products and corresponding digests contained lower amounts of free lipid oxidation products, but more protein carbonyl compounds compared to the reference pork.

Abstract
Aim α-Lipoic acid exerts a powerful antioxidant effect by acting as a free radical scavenger and inducing endogenous antioxidants such as vitamin E and glutathione. In the present study, we examined the effects of α-lipoic acid on cardiac dysfunction in rat hearts with aortocaval fistulae. Main methods Aortocaval fistulae were created between the abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava in male rats. Hemodynamic parameters were measured 14 days after surgery using an intravascular pressure transducer, and then these hearts were harvested for tissue weight measurement, pathological evaluation, and mRNA isolation. Results In vehicle-treated rats, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure and left ventricular weight significantly increased at 14 days after fistula creation. Fistula-creation resulted in expression of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, NADPH oxidase subunit p67phox and BNP mRNA in a time-dependent manner in the left ventricle. Long-term treatment (initiated 2 days before surgery, and continued for 14 days after fistula creation; days -2 to 14) with α-lipoic acid (30 mg/kg/day) markedly suppressed the increases in left and right ventricular weight, and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure. α-Lipoic acid treatment from days -2 to 14 prominently prevented the expression of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal and NADPH oxidase subunit p67phox, and significantly raised BNP mRNA levels. Short-term treatment with α-lipoic acid from day - 2 to 7 was effective in preventing cardiac enlargement and dysfunction, similar to long-term treatment, but treatment from days 7–14 was not effective. Conclusions Treatment with α-lipoic acid can prevent cardiac hyperplasia and dysfunction, probably by inhibiting superoxide production and enhancing BNP mRNA expression in an early phase after fistula creation.

Abstract
Lipids can go through lipid peroxidation, an endogenous chain reaction that consists in the oxidative degradation of lipids leading to the generation of a wide variety of highly reactive carbonyl species (RCS), such as short-chain carbonyl derivatives and oxidized truncated phospholipids. RCS exert a wide range of biological effects due to their ability to interact and covalently bind to nucleophilic groups on other macromolecules, such as nucleic acids, phospholipids, and proteins, forming reversible and/or irreversible modifications and generating the so-called advanced lipoxidation end-products (ALEs). Lipoxidation plays a relevant role in the onset of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), mainly in the atherosclerosis-based diseases in which oxidized lipids and their adducts have been extensively characterized and associated with several processes responsible for the onset and development of atherosclerosis, such as endothelial dysfunction and inflammation. Herein we will review the current knowledge on the sources of lipids that undergo oxidation in the context of cardiovascular diseases, both from the bloodstream and tissues, and the methods for detection, characterization, and quantitation of their oxidative products and protein adducts. Moreover, lipoxidation and ALEs have been associated with many oxidative-based diseases, including CVD, not only as potential biomarkers but also as therapeutic targets. Indeed, several therapeutic strategies, acting at different levels of the ALEs cascade, have been proposed, essentially blocking ALEs formation, but also their catabolism or the resulting biological responses they induce. However, a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of formation and targets of ALEs could expand the available therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
The estimation of the toxic influences of herbicide products on non-target aquatic organisms is essential for evaluation of environmental contamination. We assessed the effects of the herbicide S-metolachlor (S-MET) on unicellular green microalga Parachlorella kessleri during 4-72 in vitro exposure to concentrations in the range 2-200μg/L. The results have shown that S-MET had a significant effect on algae, even in doses 10 and 20 times lower than the EC50 values obtained for P. kessleri (EC50-72h=1090μg/L). It generates reactive oxygen species in algae, decreases their growth and photosynthetic pigment concentration, changes their ultrastructure and alters the cellular antioxidant defence capacities. The levels of protein adducts with the reactive aldehyde 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), the end-product of lipid peroxidation, were significantly elevated in S-MET treated cells revealing the insufficient effectiveness of P. kessleri antioxidant mechanisms and persistent lipid peroxidation. Since algae are fundamental aquatic food component, the damaged algal cells, still capable of dividing while having persistently increased content of HNE upon S-MET contamination could represent an important environmental toxic factor that might further affect higher organisms in the food chain.

Abstract
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), an inducible isoform responsible for high levels of prostaglandin (PG) production during inflammation and immune responses, mediate a variety of biological actions involved in vascular pathophysiology. COX-2 is induced by various stimuli, including proinflammatory cytokines, to result in PG synthesis associated with inflammation and carcinogenesis. 4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) is one of a group of small molecules that can induce COX-2 expression. The mechanistic studies have revealed that the HNE-induced COX-2 expression results from the stabilization of COX-2 mRNA mediated by the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway and uniquely requires a serum component, which is eventually identified to be modified low-density lipoproteins (LDLs), such as the oxidized form of LDLs. It has also been shown that HNE-induced COX-2 expression is mechanistically linked to the expression of transcription factor p53 and that the overexpression of COX-2 is associated with down-regulation of a proteasome subunit, leading to the enhanced accumulation of p53 and ubiquitinated proteins and to the enhanced sensitivity toward HNE. Thus, the overall mechanism and pathophysiological role of the COX-2 induction by HNE have become increasingly evident.

Abstract
Objective Retinal dehydrogenase 1 (RALDH1) is a cytosolic enzyme which acts both as a source of retinoic acid (RA) and as a detoxification enzyme. RALDH1 has key functions in the midbrain dopaminergic system, which influences motivation, cognition, and social behavior. Since dopamine has been increasingly linked to autism spectrum disorder (ASD), we asked whether RALDH1 could contribute to the autistic phenotype. Therefore, we investigated for the first time the levels of RALDH1 in autistic patients. To further assess the detoxification function of RALDH1, we also explored 4-hydroxynonenal protein adducts (4-HNE PAs) and reduced glutathione (GSH) levels. Moreover, considering the effect of testosterone on RALDH1 expression, we measured the second to fourth digit ratio (2D:4D ratio) for both hands, which reflects exposure to prenatal testosterone. Methods Male patients with ASD (n=18; age, 62.9±4.3 months) and healthy controls (n=13; age, 78.1±4.9 months) were examined. Erythrocyte RALDH1, serum 4-HNE PAs and erythrocyte GSH levels were measured using colorimetric assays, and digit lengths were measured using digital calipers. Results We found significantly lower (−42.9%) RALDH1 levels in autistic patients as compared to controls (p=0.032). However, there was no difference in 4-HNE PAs levels (p=0.368), GSH levels (p=0.586), or 2D:4D ratios (p=0.246 in the left hand, p=0.584 in the right hand) between healthy controls and autistic subjects. Conclusion We concluded that a subset of autistic patients had a low RALDH1 level. These results suggest that low RALDH1 levels could contribute to the autistic phenotype by reflecting a dopaminergic dysfunction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of non-surgical periodontal treatment on markers of oxidative stress in saliva and serum in patients with chronic periodontitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 25 patients, who were diagnosed with generalized chronic periodontitis (11 females and 14 males), and 26 systemically and periodontally healthy individuals (15 females and 11 males) were included. The plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing pocket depth (PPD), attachment loss (AL), gingival recession (GR), and bleeding on probing (BOP) were recorded at baseline and 6 weeks later. Malondialdehyde (MDA), 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) were assessed in saliva and serum samples before and after the non-surgical treatment by enzyme-linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS In the group with chronic periodontitis, all clinical parameters were significantly higher compared to the control group at baseline (p < 0.001). Periodontal treatment reduced plaque, gingival inflammation, and pocket depth significantly (p < 0.001). At baseline, salivary 8-OHdG was significantly higher in chronic periodontitis (p < 0.001) and reduced significantly subsequent to the periodontal treatment (p < 0.001). Salivary MDA and serum 4-HNE were significantly higher in the patients with periodontitis compared to the control group (p < 0.001). Periodontal treatment did not significantly change the levels of 4-HNE and salivary MDA (p = 0.503, p = 0.093). CONCLUSIONS Salivary 8-OHdG and MDA may be associated with local impact of periodontal disease, while 4-HNE may be associated with systemic impact of chronic periodontitis. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Clinical intervention in periodontitis may be beneficial for periodontitis patients' systemic oxidative stress control, and using lipidic agents for the use of anti-inflammatory/pro-resolving processes for blocking the actions of arachidonic acid cascade can enable some late therapeutic strategies in order to lead oxidative stress-induced inflammation.

Abstract
Numerous studies demonstrate that reactive aldehydes are highly toxic and aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2)-mediated detoxification of reactive aldehydes is thought as an endogenous protective mechanism against reactive aldehydes-induced cell injury. This study aims to explore whether lipoic acid, a potential ALDH2 activator, is able to protect gastric mucosa from ethanol-induced injury through a mechanism involving clearance of reactive aldehydes. The rats received 60% of acidified ethanol through intragastric administration and held for 1 h to establish a mucosal injury model. Lipoic acid (10 or 30 mg/kg) or Alda-1 (a positive control, 10 mg/kg) was given 45 min before the ethanol treatment. The gastric tissues were collected for analysis of gastric ulcer index, cellular apoptosis, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents, and ALDH2 activity. The results showed that acute administration of ethanol led to an increase in gastric ulcer index, cellular apoptosis, 4-HNE and MDA contents concomitant with a decrease in ALDH2 activity; these phenomena were reversed by lipoic acid or Alda-1. The gastric protection of lipoic acid was attenuated in the presence of ALDH2 inhibitor. Based on these observations, we conclude that lipoic acid exerts the beneficial effects on ethanol-induced injury through a mechanism involving, at least in part, ALDH2 activation. As a dietary supplement or a medicine already in some countries, lipoic acid can be used to treat the ethanol - induced gastric mucosal injury.

Abstract
This study analyzed the onset of lipid peroxidation (LPO) in neuroborreliosis and the effects of ceftriaxone therapy on LPO. Twenty-two patients with early neuroborreliosis and 22 healthy subjects were studied. LPO in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), as well as the plasma and urine was estimated by the levels of reactive aldehydes: 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), 4-hydroxyhexenal, malondialdehyde, and 4-oxononenal, F2-isoprostanes and A4/J4-neuroprostanes (NPs). The plasma level of 4-HNE-protein adducts arachidonic acid (AA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and vitamin E was determined. Additionally, enzymatic activities of phospholipase A2 (PLA2), platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) were determined. A decrease of AA, DHA levels and GSH-Px activity in plasma was associated with a significant increase of aldehydes in the CSF, plasma and urine. Similarly, the increase of F2-isoprostanes and NPs in the CSF and plasma was associated with the decreased activity of PLA2 and PAF-AH. Ceftriaxone therapy cured patients and reduced the levels of F2-isoprostanes, NPs and reactive aldehydes. However, the activities of PLA2 and PAF-AH increased. Pathophysiological association of neuroborreliosis with systemic LPO was revealed. Effective antibiotic therapy attenuated LPO. Biomarkers of LPO could be useful to monitor the onset of neuroborreliosis and show the effectiveness of pharmacotherapy.

Abstract
Modification of proteins by 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), a reactive by-product of ω6 polyunsaturated fatty acid oxidation, on specific amino acid residues is considered a biomarker for oxidative stress, as occurs in many metabolic, hereditary, and age-related diseases. HNE modification of amino acids can occur either via Michael addition or by formation of Schiff-base adducts. These modifications typically occur on cysteine (Cys), histidine (His), and/or lysine (Lys) residues, resulting in an increase of 156 Da (Michael addition) or 138 Da (Schiff-base adducts), respectively, in the mass of the residue. Here, we employed biochemical and mass spectrometry (MS) approaches to determine the MS "signatures" of HNE-modified amino acids, using lysozyme and BSA as model proteins. Using direct infusion of unmodified and HNE-modified lysozyme into an electrospray quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer, we were able to detect up to seven HNE modifications per molecule of lysozyme. Using nanoLC-MS/MS, we found that, in addition to N-terminal amino acids, Cys, His, and Lys residues, HNE modification of arginine (Arg), threonine (Thr), tryptophan (Trp), and histidine (His) residues can also occur. These sensitive and specific methods can be applied to the study of oxidative stress to evaluate HNE modification of proteins in complex mixtures from cells and tissues under diseased versus normal conditions.

Abstract
Several epidemiological studies propose the association of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) with oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to estimate the possible onset of systemic lipid peroxidation in RA patients and its relevance for pathophysiology and monitoring of RA. Seventy-three patients with RA and 73 healthy subjects were included in the study. Lipid peroxidation was estimated by the measurement of 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), 4-hydroxyhexenal, malondialdehyde, acrolein, crotonaldehyde, 4-oxononenal, and isoprostanes (8-isoPGF(2α)) levels. Cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)), platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activities and vitamin E levels were also determined. In parallel, the plasma levels of phospholipid arachidonic acid (AA), linoleic acid (LA), and 4-HNE-protein adducts were monitored. Plasma of RA patients had increased vitamin E levels, but decreased GSH-Px activity and phospholipid AA and LA levels when compared to levels of the healthy subjects. The levels of aldehydes were significantly increased in the plasma of the RA patients and even more in urine. Significant increases in HNE-modified protein adducts was observed for the first time in plasma of RA patients, while the activities of PAF-AH and cPLA(2) were decreased. The 8-isoPGF(2α) levels were 9-fold higher in plasma and 3-fold higher in urine of RA patients and were related to the severity of disease. The levels of lipid peroxidation products in plasma and in urine suggest the relationship between lipid peroxidation and the development of RA. Additionally, urine 8-isoPGF(2α), plasma 4-HNE and 4-HNE-protein adducts appear to be convenient biomarkers to monitor progression of this autoimmune disease.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated reactive aldehydes induce cellular stress. In cardiovascular diseases such as ischemia-reperfusion injury, lipid-peroxidation derived reactive aldehydes such as 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4HNE) are known to contribute to the pathogenesis. 4HNE is involved in ROS formation, abnormal calcium handling and more importantly defective mitochondrial respiration. Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) superfamily contains NAD(P)(+)-dependent isozymes which can detoxify endogenous and exogenous aldehydes into non-toxic carboxylic acids. Therefore we hypothesize that 4HNE afflicts mitochondrial respiration and leads to cell death by impairing ALDH2 activity in cultured H9C2 cardiomyocyte cell lines. H9C2 cardiomyocytes were treated with 25, 50 and 75 μM 4HNE and its vehicle, ethanol as well as 25, 50 and 75 μM disulfiram (DSF), an inhibitor of ALDH2 and its vehicle (DMSO) for 4 h. 4HNE significantly decreased ALDH2 activity, ALDH2 protein levels, mitochondrial respiration and mitochondrial respiratory reserve capacity, and increased 4HNE adduct formation and cell death in cultured H9C2 cardiomyocytes. ALDH2 inhibition by DSF and ALDH2 siRNA attenuated ALDH2 activity besides reducing ALDH2 levels, mitochondrial respiration and mitochondrial respiratory reserve capacity and increased cell death. Our results indicate that ALDH2 impairment can lead to poor mitochondrial respiration and increased cell death in cultured H9C2 cardiomyocytes.

Abstract
Rett syndrome (RTT, MIM 312750) is a rare and orphan progressive neurodevelopmental disorder affecting girls almost exclusively, with a frequency of 1/15,000 live births of girls. The disease is characterized by a period of 6 to 18 months of apparently normal neurodevelopment, followed by early neurological regression, with a progressive loss of acquired cognitive, social, and motor skills. RTT is known to be caused in 95% of the cases by sporadic de novo loss-of-function mutations in the X-linked methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene encoding methyl-CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2), a nuclear protein able to regulate gene expression. Despite almost two decades of research into the functions and role of MeCP2, little is known about the mechanisms leading from MECP2 mutation to the disease. Oxidative stress (OS) is involved in the pathogenic mechanisms of several neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders, although in many cases it is not clear whether OS is a cause or a consequence of the pathology. Fairly recently, the presence of a systemic OS has been demonstrated in RTT patients with a strong correlation with the patients' clinical status. The link between MECP2 mutation and the redox imbalance found in RTT is not clear. Animal studies have suggested a possible direct correlation between Mecp2 mutation and increased OS levels. In addition, the restoration of Mecp2 function in astrocytes significantly improves the developmental outcome of Mecp2-null mice and reexpression of Mecp2 gene in the brain of null mice restored oxidative damage, suggesting that Mecp2 loss of function can be involved in oxidative brain damage. Starting from the evidence that oxidative damage in the brain of Mecp2-null mice precedes the onset of symptoms, we evaluated whether, based on the current literature, the dysfunctions described in RTT could be a consequence or, in contrast, could be caused by OS. We also analyzed whether therapies that at least partially treated some RTT symptoms can play a role in defense against OS. At this stage we can propose that OS could be one of the main causes of the dysfunctions observed in RTT. In addition, the major part of the therapies recommended to alleviate RTT symptoms have been shown to interfere with oxidative homeostasis, suggesting that MeCP2 could somehow be involved in the protection of the brain from OS.

Abstract
4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) is a highly cytotoxic product of lipid peroxidation. Nevertheless, at low concentrations, it is able to mediate cell signaling and to activate protective pathways, including that of the transcription factor Nrf2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2). In addition, HNE activates uncoupling proteins (UCPs), mitochondrial inner membrane proteins that mediate uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation and have been proposed to protect against oxidative stress. It is not known, however, whether HNE might induce UCP expression via Nrf2 to cause mitochondrial uncoupling. We investigated the effects of HNE on UCP3 expression in mouse cardiomyocytes and the involvement of Nrf2. HNE induced the nuclear accumulation of Nrf2 and enhanced UCP3 expression, effects prevented by the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine. ChIP assays indicated that Nrf2 bound to the Ucp3 promoter after HNE treatment, increasing its expression. Cardiomyocytes treated with Nrf2- or UCP3-specific siRNA were less tolerant to HNE as reflected by increased cell death, and Nrf2 siRNA prevented HNE-induced UCP3 upregulation. The treatment with HNE greatly altered cardiomyocyte bioenergetics, increasing the proton leak across the inner mitochondrial membrane and severely decreasing the maximal respiratory capacity and the respiratory reserve capacity. These findings confirm that low HNE doses activate Nrf2 in cardiomyocytes and provide the first evidence of Nrf2 binding to the Ucp3 promoter in response to HNE, leading to increased protein expression. These results suggest that the upregulation of UCP3 mediated by Nrf2 in response to HNE might be important in the protection of the heart under conditions of oxidative stress such as ischemia-reperfusion.

Abstract
CDKL5 mutation is associated with an atypical Rett syndrome (RTT) variant. Recently, cholesterol homeostasis perturbation and oxidative-mediated loss of the high-density lipoprotein receptor SRB1 in typical RTT have been suggested. Here, we demonstrate an altered lipid serum profile also in CDKL5 patients with decreased levels of SRB1 and impaired activation of the defensive system Nrf2. In addition, CDKL5 fibroblasts showed an increase in 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal- and nitrotyrosine-SRB1 adducts that lead to its ubiquitination and probable degradation. This study highlights a possible common denominator between two different RTT variants (MECP2 and CDKL5) and a possible common future therapeutic target.

Abstract
An NADP(+)-dependent dehydrogenase activity on 3-glutathionyl-4-hydroxynonanal (GSHNE) was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from a line of human astrocytoma cells (ADF). Proteomic analysis identified this enzymatic activity as associated with carbonyl reductase 1 (EC 1.1.1.184). The enzyme is highly efficient at catalyzing the oxidation of GSHNE (KM 33 µM, kcat 405 min(-1)), as it is practically inactive toward trans-4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) and other HNE-adducted thiol-containing amino acid derivatives. Combined mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy analysis of the reaction products revealed that carbonyl reductase oxidizes the hydroxyl group of GSHNE in its hemiacetal form, with the formation of the corresponding 3-glutathionylnonanoic-δ-lactone. The relevance of this new reaction catalyzed by carbonyl reductase 1 is discussed in terms of HNE detoxification and the recovery of reducing power.

Abstract
4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) is a reactive aldehyde and a lipid peroxidation product formed in biological tissues under physiological and pathological conditions. Its concentration increases with oxidative stress and induces deleterious modifications of proteins and membranes. Mitochondrial and cytosolic isoforms of creatine kinase were previously shown to be affected by 4-HNE. In the present study, we analyzed the effect of 4-HNE on mitochondrial creatine kinase, an abundant protein from the mitochondrial intermembrane space with a key role in mitochondrial physiology. We show that this effect is double: 4-HNE induces a step-wise loss of creatine kinase activity together with a fast protein aggregation. Protein-membrane interaction is affected and amyloid-like networks formed on the biomimetic membrane. These fibrils may disturb mitochondrial organisation both at the membrane and in the inter membrane space.

Abstract
Tumor cells generate extracellular superoxide anions and are protected against superoxide anion-mediated intercellular apoptosis-inducing signaling by the expression of membrane-associated catalase. 4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE), a versatile second messenger generated during lipid peroxidation, has been shown to induce apoptosis selectively in malignant cells. The findings described in this paper reveal the strong, concentration-dependent potential of 4-HNE to specifically inactivate extracellular catalase of tumor cells both indirectly and directly and to consequently trigger apoptosis in malignant cells through superoxide anion-mediated intercellular apoptosis-inducing signaling. Namely, 4-HNE caused apoptosis selectively in NOX1-expressing tumor cells through inactivation of their membrane-associated catalase, thus reactivating subsequent intercellular signaling through the NO/peroxynitrite and HOCl pathways, followed by the mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis. Concentrations of 4-HNE of 1.2 µM and higher directly inactivated membrane-associated catalase of tumor cells, whereas at lower concentrations, 4-HNE triggered a complex amplificatory pathway based on initial singlet oxygen formation through H2O2 and peroxynitrite interaction. Singlet-oxygen-dependent activation of the FAS receptor and caspase-8 increased superoxide anion generation by NOX1 and amplification of singlet oxygen generation, which allowed singlet-oxygen-dependent inactivation of catalase. 4-HNE and singlet oxygen cooperate in complex autoamplificatory loops during this process. The finding of these novel anticancer pathways may be useful for understanding the role of 4-HNE in the control of malignant cells and for the optimization of ROS-dependent therapeutic approaches including antioxidant treatments.

Abstract
Cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox-2) is rapidly expressed by various stimuli and plays a key role in conversion of free arachidonic acid to prostaglandins. We have previously identified 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), a lipid peroxidation-derived electrophile, as the potent Cox-2 inducer in rat epithelial RL34 cells and revealed that the HNE-induced Cox-2 expression resulted from the stabilization of Cox-2 mRNA that is mediated by the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway. In the present study, we investigated an alternative regulatory mechanism of Cox-2 expression mediated by a transcription factor p53. In addition, to characterize the causal role for Cox-2, we examined the effects of Cox-2 overexpression in RL34 cells. To examine whether the HNE-induced Cox-2 expression was mechanistically linked to the p53 expression, we analyzed changes in Cox-2 and p53 expression levels in response to HNE and observed that the Cox-2 levels were inversely correlated with the p53 levels. Down-regulation of p53 followed by the activation of a transcription factor Sp1 was suggested to be involved in the HNE-induced Cox-2 gene expression. To characterize the effect of Cox-2 expression in the cells, we established the Cox-2-overexpressing derivatives of RL34 cells by stable transfection with Cox-2 cDNA. An oligonucleotide microarray analysis revealed a dramatic down-regulation of the proteasome subunit RC1 in the Cox-2 overexpressed cells compared to the empty-vector transfected control cells. Consistent with the Cox-2-mediated down-regulation of proteasome, a moderate reduction of the proteasome activities was observed. This proteasome dysfunction mediated by the Cox-2 overproduction was associated with the enhanced accumulation of p53 and ubiquitinated proteins, leading to the enhanced sensitivity toward electrophiles. These results suggest the existence of a causal link between Cox-2 and p53, which may represent a toxic mechanism of electrophilic lipid peroxidation products.

Abstract
The importance of free radical-induced oxidative damage after traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been well documented. Despite multiple clinical trials with radical-scavenging antioxidants that are neuroprotective in TBI models, none is approved for acute TBI patients. As an alternative antioxidant target, Nrf2 is a transcription factor that activates expression of antioxidant and cytoprotective genes by binding to antioxidant response elements (AREs) within DNA. Previous research has shown that neuronal mitochondria are susceptible to oxidative damage post-TBI, and thus the current study investigates whether Nrf2-ARE activation protects mitochondrial function when activated post-TBI. It was hypothesized that administration of carnosic acid (CA) would reduce oxidative damage biomarkers in the brain tissue and also preserve cortical mitochondrial respiratory function post-TBI. A mouse controlled cortical impact (CCI) model was employed with a 1.0mm cortical deformation injury. Administration of CA at 15 min post-TBI reduced cortical lipid peroxidation, protein nitration, and cytoskeletal breakdown markers in a dose-dependent manner at 48 h post-injury. Moreover, CA preserved mitochondrial respiratory function compared to vehicle animals. This was accompanied by decreased oxidative damage to mitochondrial proteins, suggesting the mechanistic connection of the two effects. Lastly, delaying the initial administration of CA up to 8h post-TBI was still capable of reducing cytoskeletal breakdown, thereby demonstrating a clinically relevant therapeutic window for this approach. This study demonstrates that pharmacological Nrf2-ARE induction is capable of neuroprotective efficacy when administered after TBI.

Abstract
The objective of the present work was tantamount to explain the antiperoxidative potential and structural requirements of twenty-eight structurally diverse classes of antioxidants on docetaxel-induced lipid peroxidation. Both experimental and computational approaches were taken to the work. The experiments were performed in vitro and goat liver was used as a source of lipid. 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal was used as model marker for estimation of docetaxel-lipid interaction. The computational portion of the work was limited to QSAR analysis of those antioxidants for better understanding of the structural requirements of antioxidants on docetaxel-lipid interaction. The study was done with freely online available 2D descriptors available on PaDEL (open source). Stepwise regression analysis was used as chemometric tool. The experimental study showed the lipid peroxidation induction capacity of docetaxel. It was also noted that all twenty-eight antioxidants had the ability to suppress the lipid peroxidation. But among them butylated hydroxyl toluene showed the highest potential (-20.5%) and flavone showing lowest potential (-0.8%) to suppress the docetaxel-induced lipid peroxidation. The computational study indicates the importance of topology of the whole molecules, topological distances among atoms within a molecule and specific fragment pattern present in a molecule required for inhibition of lipid peroxidation.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation is a free radical oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid or arachidonic acid. This process has been related with various pathologies and disease status mainly because of the oxidation products formed during the process. The oxidation products include reactive aldehydes such as malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxynonenal. These reactive aldehydes can form adducts with DNAs and proteins, leading to the alterations in their functions to cause various diseases. This review will provide a short summary on the implication of lipid peroxidation on cancer, atherosclerosis, and neurodegeneration as well as chemical and biochemical mechanisms by which these adducts affect the pathological conditions. In addition, select examples will be presented where antioxidants were used to counteract oxidative damage caused by lipid peroxidation. At the end, isoprostanes are discussed as a gold standard for the assessment of oxidative damages.

Abstract
ω-3 and ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) play a role in the pathogenesis of colon cancer. Upon oxidation, PUFAs generate α,β-unsaturated aldehydes or enals, such as acrolein (Acr) and (E)-4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), which can form cyclic adducts of deoxyguanosine (Acr-dG and HNE-dG, respectively) in DNA. Both Acr-dG and HNE-dG adducts have been detected in human and animal tissues and are potentially mutagenic and carcinogenic. In vivo levels of Acr-dG in DNA are at least two orders of magnitude higher than those of HNE-dG. In addition to the facile reaction with Acr, the higher levels of Acr-dG than HNE-dG in vivo may be due to a lower rate of repair. Previous studies have shown that HNE-dG adducts are repaired by the NER pathway (Choudhury et al. [42]). We hypothesize that Acr-dG adducts are repaired at a slower rate than HNE-dG and that HNE-dG in DNA may influence the repair of Acr-dG. In this study, using a DNA repair synthesis assay and a LC-MS/MS method, we showed that Acr-dG in a plasmid DNA is repaired by NER proteins, but it is repaired at a much slower rate than HNE-dG in human colon cell extracts, and the slow repair of Acr-dG is likely due to poor recognition/excision of the lesions in DNA. Furthermore, using a plasmid DNA containing both adducts we found the repair of Acr-dG is significantly inhibited by HNE-dG, however, the repair of HNE-dG is not much affected by Acr-dG. This study demonstrates that the NER repair efficiencies of the two major structurally-related in vivo cyclic DNA adducts from lipid oxidation vary greatly. More importantly, the repair of Acr-dG can be significantly retarded by the presence of HNE-dG in DNA. Therefore, this study provides a mechanistic explanation for the higher levels of Acr-dG than HNE-dG observed in tissue DNA.

Abstract
Halogenated quinones are a class of carcinogenic intermediates and newly identified chlorination disinfection by-products in drinking water. 13-Hydroperoxy-9,11-octadecadienoic acid (13-HPODE) is the most extensively studied endogenous lipid hydroperoxide. Although it is well known that the decomposition of 13-HPODE can be catalyzed by transition metal ions, it is not clear whether halogenated quinones could enhance its decomposition independent of metal ions and, if so, what the unique characteristics and similarities are. Here we show that 2,5-dichloro-1,4-benzoquinone (DCBQ) could markedly enhance the decomposition of 13-HPODE and formation of reactive lipid alkyl radicals such as pentyl and 7-carboxyheptyl radicals, and the genotoxic 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), through the complementary application of ESR spin trapping, HPLC-MS, and GC-MS methods. Interestingly, two chloroquinone-lipid alkoxyl conjugates were also detected and identified from the reaction between DCBQ and 13-HPODE. Analogous results were observed with other halogenated quinones. This represents the first report that halogenated quinoid carcinogens can enhance the decomposition of the endogenous lipid hydroperoxide 13-HPODE and formation of reactive lipid alkyl radicals and genotoxic HNE via a novel metal-independent nucleophilic substitution coupled with homolytic decomposition mechanism, which may partly explain their potential genotoxicity and carcinogenicity.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation involves a cascade of reactions in which production of free radicals occurs selectively in the lipid components of cellular membranes. Polyunsaturated fatty acids easily undergo lipid peroxidation chain reactions, which, in turn, lead to the formation of highly reactive electrophilic aldehydes. Among these, the most abundant aldehydes are 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) and malondialdehyde, while acrolein is the most reactive. Proteins are susceptible to posttranslational modifications caused by aldehydes binding covalently to specific amino acid residues, in a process called Michael adduction, and these types of protein adducts, if not efficiently removed, may be, and generally are, dangerous for cellular homeostasis. In the present review, we focused the discussion on the selective proteins that are identified, by redox proteomics, as selective targets of HNE modification during the progression and pathogenesis of Alzheimer disease (AD). By comparing results obtained at different stages of the AD, it may be possible to identify key biochemical pathways involved and ideally identify therapeutic targets to prevent, delay, or treat AD.

Abstract
Protein modifications by 4-hydroxy-2-nonenals (HNE) are involved in various diseases. Histones are DNA protective nucleoprotein, which adopt different structures under oxidative stress. This study was undertaken to test the role of HNE-modified-histone-H2A (HNE-H2A) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Our data revealed that HNE-mediated-lipid peroxidation in histone-H2A caused alteration in histidine, lysine and cystein residues. In addition, protein carbonyl contents were also high in HNE-H2A. HNE-specific quencher, L-carnosine further reiterates HNE-modifications. Specificity of autoantibodies from SLE patients (n=48) were analyzed towards HNE-H2A and their results were compared with sex- and age-matched controls (n=36). SLE autoantibodies show preferential binding to HNE-H2A in comparison with histone-H2A (p<0.0001). Furthermore, HNE-H2A was also detected in SLE peripheral blood mononuclear cells. In conclusion, this is the first study to demonstrate the role of HNE-modified-histone in SLE. Preferential binding of HNE-H2A by affinity purified SLE-IgG pointed out the likely role of HNE-H2A in the initiation/progression of SLE.

Abstract
The study reports a set of forty proteinogenic histidine-containing dipeptides as potential carbonyl quenchers. The peptides were chosen to cover as exhaustively as possible the accessible chemical space, and their quenching activities toward 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) and pyridoxal were evaluated by HPLC analyses. The peptides were capped at the C-terminus as methyl esters or amides to favor their resistance to proteolysis and diastereoisomeric pairs were considered to reveal the influence of configuration on quenching. On average, the examined dipeptides are less active than the parent compound carnosine (βAla + His) thus emphasizing the unfavorable effect of the shortening of the βAla residue as confirmed by the control dipeptide Gly-His. Nevertheless, some peptides show promising activities toward HNE combined with a remarkable selectivity. The results emphasize the beneficial role of aromatic and positively charged residues, while negatively charged and H-bonding side chains show a detrimental effect on quenching. As a trend, ester derivatives are slightly more active than amides while heterochiral peptides are more active than their homochiral diastereoisomer. Overall, the results reveal that quenching activity strongly depends on conformational effects and vicinal residues (as evidenced by the reported QSAR analysis), offering insightful clues for the design of improved carbonyl quenchers and to rationalize the specific reactivity of histidine residues within proteins.
