RÉSUMÉ

Neutrophil granulocyte leukocytes (neutrophils) play fundamental role in the innate immune response. In the presence of adequate stimuli, neutrophils release excessive amount of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that may induce cell and tissue injury. Oxidative burst of neutrophils acts as a double-edged sword. It may contribute to the pathology of atherosclerosis and brain injury but is also necessary in resolving infections. Moreover, neutrophil-derived ROS may also have both a tumor promoting and tumor suppressing role. ROS have a specific activities and diffusion distance, which is related to their short lifetime. Therefore, the manner in which ROS will act depends on the cells targeted and the intra- and extracellular levels of individual ROS, which can further cause production of reactive aldehydes like 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) that act as a second messengers of ROS. In this review we discuss the influence of neutrophil mediated extracellular redox reactions in ischemia reperfusion injury, transplant rejection and chronic diseases (atherosclerosis, inflammatory bowel diseases and cancer). At the end a brief overview of cellular mechanisms to maintain ROS homeostasis is given.

RÉSUMÉ

There is growing body of evidence that oxidative stress, i.e. excess in production of reactive oxygen species, can lead to covalent modification of proteins with bioactive aldehydes that are mostly produced under lipid peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Thus generated reactive aldehydes are considered as second messengers of free radicals because they react with major bioactive macromolecules, in particular with various humoral and cellular proteins changing their structure and functions. Therefore, the aldehydic-protein adducts, in particular those involving 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, malondialdehyde and acrolein can be valuable biomarkers of numerous pathophysiological processes. The development of immunochemical methods is increasing the possibilities to study such non-enzymatic protein modifications, on the one hand, while on the other hand the increase of knowledge on bioactivities of the aldehydes and their protein adducts might lead to better prevention, diagnosis and treatments of pathophysiological processes associated with lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress in general. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Posttranslational Protein modifications in biology and Medicine.

RÉSUMÉ

Alterations in the intestinal barrier permeability occur in a broad spectrum of abdominally related pathologies, mostly due to disturbed oxidative homeostasis and increased lipid peroxidation. 4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE), a major lipid peroxidation product, is physiologically present in healthy gastric mucosa, but is increased in early stages of colon cancer and patients with duodenal peptic ulcer. Nevertheless, such supraphysiological levels of HNE have not yet been associated with increased intestinal permeability, even though, as we have described in this paper, they could play important role. In vitro model of intestinal barrier was established by growing Caco-2 cell line on cell culture permeable inserts. The pyridoindole derivative stobadine in hydrophilic and lipophilic form was used for barrier model protection. Both forms of stobadine were able to prevent damaging HNE effects, and reduce generation of reactive oxygen species and permeability of the intestinal barrier. Immunocytochemical analysis has confirmed beneficial effect of stobadine in reducing the formation of HNE-protein conjugates in the cells. Lipophilic form of stobadine proved to be more efficient than hydrophilic, implying importance of lipids in maintaining barrier function. The results obtained indicate that HNE might be important factor affecting intestinal barrier integrity, while stobadine could efficiently protect intestinal cells against harmful HNE effects.

RÉSUMÉ

Pathophysiological processes associated with disturbances in cell and tissue oxidative homeostasis, are associated with self-catalyzed process of lipid peroxidation. The end products of lipid peroxidation are reactive aldehydes such as 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), acting as "second messengers of free radicals." Although reactive aldehydes were first recognized only as cytotoxic, new evidence has come to light, related to their cell growth regulatory functions achieved through cell signaling. The variable appearance of HNE in several organs indicates that its mode of action might be related to an individual cell stress adaptation. The underlying mechanism could be that specific mutations and epigenetic changes on one hand interfere with hormesis on the other. The precise role of oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation in these processes still needs more clarification at molecular level. Finally, an individual approach to each patient, based on the individual cell response to stress, opens a new possibility of integrative medicine in cancer treatment and strongly supports modern concepts of personalized medicine.

RÉSUMÉ

Acrolein is a toxic unsaturated aldehyde and widespread environmental pollutant produced during lipid peroxidation and also by burning of tobacco or liquid fuels. Inhalation or dermal exposure to acrolein could be toxic to organisms. This very reactive aldehyde has a strong affinity for binding to proteins thus forming pathogenic protein-adducts. In the present study we have analyzed formation of bioreactive acrolein-protein adducts in bovine serum albumin solution exposed to exhaust gases of mineral diesel fuel and of mineral diesel fuel supplemented with different amounts of a novel diesel fuel additive denoted Ecodiesel (produced by a genuine procedure of recycling of plant oils used for food preparation). The effects of acrolein-protein adducts were tested on human microvascular endothelial cells and on human osteosarcoma cells that are sensitive to bioactivities of lipid peroxidation products. The results have shown a reduction of the bioreactive acrolein in exhaust gases when mineral diesel was supplemented with 5-20% Ecodiesel. Moreover, acrolein-protein adducts obtained from mineral diesel supplemented with Ecodiesel were less toxic than those obtained from mineral diesel alone. Thus, we assume that supplementing mineral diesel fuel with Ecodiesel would be of benefit for the use of renewable energy, for environment and for human health due to reduced environmental pollution with bioreactive acrolein.

RÉSUMÉ

Oxidative stress, i.e. excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), leads to lipid peroxidation and to formation of reactive aldehydes (e.g. 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal; HNE), which act as second messengers of free radicals. It was previously shown that herbicides can induce ROS production in algal cells. In the current paper, the unicellular green microalga Chlorella kessleri was used to study the effect of two herbicides (S-metolachlor and terbuthylazine) and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) on oxidative stress induction, HNE formation, chlorophyll content and the cell growth. Production of HNE was detected in this study for the first time in the cells of unicellular green algae using the antibody specific for the HNE-histidine adducts revealing the HNE-histidine adducts even in untreated, control C. kessleri. Exposure of algal cells to herbicides and H(2)O(2) increased the ROS production, modifying production of HNE. Namely, 4h upon treatment the levels of HNE-histidine conjugates were below controls. However, their amount increased afterwards. The increase of HNE levels in algae was followed by their increased growth rate, as was previously described for human carcinoma cells. Hence, changes in the cellular HNE content upon herbicide treatment inducing lipid oxidative stress and alterations in cellular growth rate of C. kessleri resemble adaptation of malignant cells to the HNE treatment. Therefore, as an addition to the standard toxicity tests, the evaluation of HNE-protein adducts in C. kessleri might indicate environmental pollution with lipid peroxidation-inducing herbicides. Finally, C. kessleri might be a convenient experimental model to further study cellular hormetic adaptation to oxidative stress-derived aldehydes.

RÉSUMÉ

Reactive oxygen species and lipid peroxidation products are not only cytotoxic but may also modulate signal transduction in cells. Accordingly, antioxidants may be considered as modifiers of cellular redox signaling. Therefore, the effects of two novel synthetic antioxidants, analogues of 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives, cerebrocrast and Z41-74 were analysed in vitro on human osteosarcoma cell line HOS, the growth of which can be modulated by lipid peroxidation. The cells were pretreated with either cerebrocrast or Z41-74 and afterwards exposed to mild, copper induced lipid peroxidation or to 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), the end product of lipid peroxidation. The results obtained have shown that both antioxidants exert growth modulating effects interfering with the lipid peroxidation. Namely, cells treated with antioxidants showed increased metabolic rate and cell growth, thereby attenuating the effects of lipid peroxidation. Such biomodulating effects of cerebrocrast and Z41-74 resembled growth modulating effects of HNE, suggesting that the antioxidants could eventually promote cellular adaptation to oxidative stress interacting with redox signaling and hydroxynonenal HNE-signal transduction pathways. This may be of particular relevance for better understanding the beneficial role of hydroxynonenal HNE in cell growth control. Therefore, cerebrocrast and Z41-74 could be convenient to study further oxidative homeostasis involving lipid peroxidation.

RÉSUMÉ

BACKGROUND: Multidrug resistance, the principal mechanism by which cancer cells develop resistance to chemotherapy drugs, is a major factor in the failure of many forms of chemotherapies. AIM: The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of K-2-11 on the reversal of multidrug resistance. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The effects of amphiphilic dihydropyridine derivative K-2-11 were tested on MDR1-expressing mouse lymphoma cells and their parental control. The effects of K-2-11 with and without doxorubicin were studied by determination of cell viability, cell proliferation and production of reactive oxygen species. RESULTS: K-2-11 caused complete reversal of multidrug resistance of the MDR cells, being much more efficient than the positive control verapamil. Accordingly, the cytotoxic effects of doxorubicin were enhanced by K-2-11, both in the MDR and in parental cell line, while K-2-11 alone did not affect cell viability. K-2-11 also acted as an antioxidant, reducing the cellular generation of reactive oxygen species. CONCLUSION: Our results indicate the high potential of K-2-11 as a novel antioxidant with potent MDR-blocking ability that should be studied further for development in adjuvant anticancer treatments.

RÉSUMÉ

Abstract The current understanding of the complex role of ROS in the organism and pathological sequelae of oxidative stress points to the necessity of comprehensive studies of antioxidant reactivities and interactions with cellular constituents. Studies of antioxidants performed within the COST B-35 action has concerned the search for new natural antioxidants, synthesis of new antioxidant compounds and evaluation and elucidation of mechanisms of action of both natural and synthetic antioxidants. Representative studies presented in the review concern antioxidant properties of various kinds of tea, the search for new antioxidants of herbal origin, modification of tocopherols and their use in combination with selenium and properties of two promising groups of synthetic antioxidants: derivatives of stobadine and derivatives of 1,4-dihydropyridine.

RÉSUMÉ

Breast cancer is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in women, mostly due to high metastatic capacity of mammary carcinoma cells. It has been revealed recently that metastases of breast cancer comprise a fraction of specific stem-like cells, denoted as cancer stem cells (CSCs). Breast CSCs, expressing specific surface markers CD44(+)CD24(-/low)ESA(+) usually disseminate in the bone marrow, being able to spread further and cause late metastases. The fundamental factor influencing the growth of CSCs is the microenvironment, especially the interaction of CSCs with extracellular matrix (ECM). The structure and function of ECM proteins, such as the dominating ECM protein collagen, is influenced not only by cancer cells but also by various cancer treatments. Since surgery, radio and chemotherapy are associated with oxidative stress we analyzed the growth of breast cancer CD44(+)CD24(-/low)ESA(+) cell line SUM159 cultured on collagen matrix in vitro, using either native collagen or the one modified by hydroxyl radical. While native collagen supported the growth of CSCs, oxidatively modified one was not supportive. The SUM159 cell cultures were further exposed to a supraphysiological (35 microM) dose of the major bioactive lipid peroxidation product 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), a well known as 'second messenger of free radicals', which has a strong affinity to bind to proteins and acts as a cytotoxic or as growth regulating signaling molecule. Native collagen, but not oxidised, abolished cytotoxicity of HNE, while oxidized collagen did not reduce cytotoxicity of HNE at all. These preliminary findings indicate that beside direct cytotoxic effects of anticancer therapies consequential oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation modify the microenvironment of CSCs influencing oxidative homeostasis that could additionally act against cancer.

RÉSUMÉ

This study was aimed to demonstrate the efficacy of interval hypoxic training (IHT) in complex treatment of Helicobacter pylori-associated duodenal peptic ulcer disease (DPUD) by parameters of aerobic metabolism and indexes of heart rate variability (HRV). Eighty patients with H. pylori-associated DPUD were included into the study, mean age 32+/-1.8 yrs, duration of the disease up to 10 years (66.3 %). IHT was modulated using Frolov's hypoxicator (TDI-01) for 30 days after standard eradication therapy. Daily hypoxic sessions consisted of three one-minute sessions, one two-minute, and one three-minute sessions separated by one-minute intervals of room-air breathing. Use of IHT resulted in more efficient elimination of clinical symptoms, histological hallmarks of inflammation and signs of oxidative stress in glandulocytes of the gastric mucosa as determined by 4-hydroxynonenal accumulation. Moderate prooxidant activity of IHT was demonstrated by the increased level of TBARS and oxidatively modified products, normalization of hydroperoxides, middle mass molecules and atherogenic beta-lipoproteins with simultaneous increase in catalase activity and mild decline of SOD activity. Therefore, IHT appeared to be accompanied by higher intensity of redox reactions and enhanced regeneratory processes in cells and tissues. Significant increase in HRV was also noted. Such changes were associated with reduction of inflammation signs and modulation of the autonomic homeostasis in DPUD patients. In general, use of IHT in complex treatment of H. pylori in DPUD patients can be recommended to increase resistance to oxidative stress and to modulate autonomic balance and oxidative homeostasis.

RÉSUMÉ

A previous report from our group had shown in vitro a direct interaction between peroxidases and dietary antioxidants at physiological concentrations, where in the absence of H(2)O(2), the antioxidants could serve as oxidizing substrates for the peroxidases. However, the physiological relevance of those findings had not been evaluated. The main objective of this study was to determine whether the oxidizing products produced in the interaction between peroxidase and gallic acid at a physiological concentration of 1 microM may promote cell death or survival in a human microvascular endothelial cell line (HMEC-1). Our findings suggested that gallic acid may show a double-edged sword behaviour, since in the absence of H(2)O(2) it may have a pro-oxidant effect which may promote cell injury (evidenced by LDH, Crystal Violet and calcein AM viability/citotoxicity assays), while in the presence of H(2)O(2), gallic acid may act as an antioxidant inhibiting oxidative species produced in the peroxidase cycle of peroxidases. These observations were confirmed with several oxidative stress biomarkers and the evaluation of the activation of cell survival pathways like AKT and MAPK/ERK.

RÉSUMÉ

Liver is a unique mammalian organ with a great capacity of regeneration related to its function. After surgical resection or injury, hepatic cells, especially hepatocytes, can proliferate rapidly to repair the damage and to regenerate the structure without affecting the function of the liver. Loss of catalase activity during regeneration indicates that oxidative stress is present in the liver not only in pathological conditions but also as a 'physiological' factor during regeneration. As we have shown in our previous work, liver stem cell-like cells treated with 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), a cytotoxic and growth regulating lipid peroxidation product, recover in the presence of spleen cells. In the current study we characterized this novel cell line as liver-derived progenitor/oval-like cells, (LDP/OCs), i.e. functional liver stem-like cells. We showed that LDP/OC were OV6 positive, with abundant glycogen content in the cytoplasm and expressed alpha-fetoprotein, albumin, biliverdin reductase and gamma-glutamyl transferase. Also, we compared their growth in vitro with the growth of cultured primary hepatocytes stressed with HNE and co-cultured with autologous spleen cells. The influence of spleen cells on HNE-treated primary hepatocytes and on LDP/OCs showed that spleen cells support in a similar manner the recovery of both types of liver cells indicating their important role in regeneration. Hence, LDP/OC cells may provide a valuable tool to study cell interactions and the role on HNE in liver regeneration.

RÉSUMÉ

Oxidative stress, i.e., excessive production of oxygen free radicals and reactive oxygen species, leads to lipid peroxidation and to formation of reactive aldehydes which act as second messengers of free radicals. It has previously been shown that oxidative stress may be involved in the transcriptional regulation of cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate early promoter, involved in viral reactivation from latency. In the current study we used a plasmid containing the yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) gene under the control of CMV-1 promoter to monitor the influence of hydrogen peroxide and reactive aldehydes, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) and acrolein, on CMV-1 promoter activation in human embryonic kidney cells (HEK293). While acrolein was ineffective, hydrogen peroxide slightly (50 %) stimulated the CMV promoter. In contrast, HNE had a strong, up to 3-fold, enhancing effect on the CMV-1 promoter within four as well as after 24h of treatment. The most effective was the treatment with 24 microM HNE. This effect of HNE suggests that stressful conditions associated with lipid peroxidation could lead to CMV activation.

RÉSUMÉ

Bone regeneration is a process of vital importance since fractures of long bones and large joints have a highly deleterious impact on both, individuals and society. Numerous attempts have been undertaken to alleviate this severe medical and social problem by development of novel bioactive materials, among which bioactive glass is the most attractive because of its osteoconductive and osteostimulative properties. Since lipid peroxidation is an important component of systematic stress response in patients with traumatic brain injuries and bone fractures, studies have been undertaken of the molecular mechanisms of the involvement of 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), an end product of lipid peroxidation, in cellular growth regulation. We found that HNE generated in bone cells grown in vitro on the surfaces of bioactive glasses 45S5 and 13-93. This raises an interesting possibility of combined action of HNE and ionic bioglass dissolution products in enhanced osteogenesis probably through a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. While the proposed mechanism still has to be elucidated, the finding of HNE generation on bioglass offers a new interpretation of the osteoinducting mechanisms of bioglass and suggests the possibility of tissue engineering based on manipulations of oxidative homeostasis.

RÉSUMÉ

Oxidative stress is an important pathogenic factor of cancer and cardiovascular, metabolic and degenerative diseases. On the other hand, mild oxidative stress, as in case of physical exercise, can increase the antioxidant defense system. However, the mechanisms underlying such desirable effects of mild oxidative stress are not well understood, because the production of hydroxyl radical, the most aggressive oxygen free radical, was not yet evaluated under physiological circumstances. Therefore, in this study, we evaluated the overall production of hydroxyl radical using blood samples of ten healthy male students before and 1 h after ergometry. One h before exercise, they took salicylic acid (1g) orally so that hydroxyl radical was trapped with salicylic acid, yielding a measurable reaction product, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid. Oxidative stress response to exercise was also evaluated in the volunteers without premedication by measuring serum peroxides and total antioxidant capacity of serum. These parameters of oxidative stress were then correlated with physical performance of the subjects. Ergometry caused an increase of the plasma hydroxyl radical level by 37.5% (p < 0.05), whereas the levels of total serum peroxides did not change significantly. Total serum antioxidant capacity, measured as uric acid equivalents, was higher after ergometry by 39.7% (p < 0.05), and was in positive correlation (r = 0.81) with anaerobic threshold, an indicator of physical condition. Hence, ergometry induces hydroxyl radical production and systemic oxidative stress response in the healthy subjects. Egometry could be used to study physiological oxidative stress response and to improve antioxidant defense capacities in humans.

RÉSUMÉ

Cancer recurrence after radical surgery might happen even in the case of patients with localized prostate carcinoma treated by radical prostatectomy. Therefore, identifying predictive markers of tumour recurrence is very important, so this study evaluated the presence of lipid peroxidation product acrolein in primary prostate carcinomas, assuming that acrolein could be involved in prostate carcinogenesis as was recently shown for colon cancer. Samples obtained by radical prostatectomy of 70 patients were analysed, out of which 27 patients suffered afterwards from tumour recurrence, while 43 patients were disease free. Immunohistochemistry using genuine monoclonal antibodies against acrolein-protein adducts revealed the association of acrolein with progression of carcinoma. The logistic regression combining clinical parameters together with the biochemical markers of disease and acrolein immunohistochemistry has shown that the relapse might be predicted with 90% accuracy if tumour-positive surgical margins, stage of disease and the intensity of acrolein presence in tumour stroma were taken together.

RÉSUMÉ

Lipid peroxidation is highly associated with chronic degenerative diseases such as cancer. 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal is one of the major products of lipid peroxidation. 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal can interact with biomolecules, changing their conformation and activity. This study presents 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-protein adducts formation in the first stages of Long-Evans Cinnamon rat hepatitis, a well recognized model for oxidative stress-associated hepatocarcinogenesis. 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-protein adducts appeared in hepatocyte cytoplasm before the beginning of hepatitis and their presence was very strong during hepatitis, while a transient perinuclear expression of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-protein adducts was shown mainly at early hepatitis stages. 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-protein adducts formation correlated to the expression of the tumour marker glutathione S-transferase P-form. These results show that lipid peroxidation modification of proteins might be implicated in the first stages of hepatocyte cancer initiation in Long-Evans Cinnamon rats.

RÉSUMÉ

This study used malondialdehyde (MDA) determination by HPLC and enzymatic assays for total serum peroxides and antioxidant capacity to evaluate oxidative stress in 47 healthy full-term small-for-gestational age (SGA) newborns vs 67 appropriate-for-gestational age (AGA) newborns. Blood samples were collected at delivery from umbilical cord artery and vein and from peripheral blood of the babies on the third day after birth. Blood samples of mothers were also collected and compared with blood of 29 normal non-pregnant women (NPW). Serum peroxide values were significantly higher in both groups of mothers than in NPW, decreasing towards the third day in AGA mothers, while persisting in SGA mothers. Antioxidant capacity of sera of both groups of mothers was lower than NPW. Both SGA mothers and babies had increased MDA at delivery, unlike AGA counterparts. MDA levels in umbilical vein were higher than in umbilical arteries, while immunohistochemistry revealed abundant presence of 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE)-protein adducts only in stroma of the SGA placenta. These results show that both mothers and babies are exposed to oxidative stress during and after delivery, which is more pronounced and persistent in the perinatal period of the SGA group, while lipid peroxidation in placenta could play a role in SGA pathophysiology.

RÉSUMÉ

AIMS AND BACKGROUND: Lipid peroxidation (LPO) is an autocatalytic process caused by oxidative stress. It results in the production of 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE), which plays a crucial role in hypoxic brain injury, neuronal degeneration and apoptosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the expression of HNE in 120 astrocytic and 40 ependymal tumors in relation to tumor type, grade of malignancy, angiogenesis, and presence of necrosis and apoptosis. METHODS: Immunohistochemical staining was performed using a monoclonal antibody for the detection of HNE-modified proteins. RESULTS: HNE-protein adducts were found in all tumors. The incidence of HNE-immunopositive tumor cells increased with increasing grades of malignancy. Significantly higher HNE expression was found in tumor cells of glioblastomas multiforme than in cells of pilocytic astrocytomas (P < 0.005), and in anaplastic ependymomas than in benign ependymomas (P < 0.01). HNE-immunopositive tumor cells were distributed more diffusely than in perivascular locations (P < 0.05). Pronounced HNE-protein adducts were detected in mitotic, necrotic, and apoptotic cells. HNE was expressed in the endothelium of almost all tumor vessels, but its expression in the walls of the vessels was significantly higher in diffuse and anaplastic astrocytomas than in pilocytic astrocytomas and glioblastomas multiforme (P < 0.05). The number of microvessels containing HNE in their endothelium and walls was significantly associated with the grade of malignancy in both astrocytic (P < 0.001) and ependymal tumors (P < 0.05), although microvessels in pilocytic astrocytomas were significantly more numerous (P < 0.05) than in diffuse astrocytomas. CONCLUSIONS: LPO seems to be a common pathological process in astrocytic and ependymal glial tumors, proportional to the level of malignancy and neovascularization. Therefore, HNE might be involved in the damage of brain cells and the induction of malignancy.
