Activation of cardiac sympathetic afferents leads to excitatory cardiovascular reflexes and pain during myocardial ischemia. We hypothesized that cardiac sympathetic afferents are activated by reactive oxygen species produced during ischemia and reperfusion. Single-unit nerve activity of 55 afferents was recorded from the left paravertebral sympathetic chain (T1-T4) in cats anesthetized with alpha-chloralose. Receptive fields of all afferents were located on the right or left ventricle. Mechanical and chemical sensitivities of each afferent ending were evaluated by von Frey hairs, cardiac distension, and local application of bradykinin (BK, 142 pmol) or H2O2 (7.5-15 mumol) to the receptive field. Thirty-one afferents (56%) were responsive to bradykinin (BK), H2O2, and ischemia (2 or 10 min). Deferoxamine (Def, 10-100 mg/kg), dimethylthiourea (DMTU, 10-100 mg/kg), or iron-loaded Def (10 mg/kg) were employed to evaluate the role of H2O2 and hydroxyl radicals (.OH) in activating these afferents (10A delta and 21C fibers) during ischemia and reperfusion. Treatment with the nonspecific scavenger DMTU (n = 10) significantly diminished the increase in discharge activity evoked by ischemia and reperfusion. Treatment with Def also significantly attenuated the responses during ischemia and reperfusion. Thus reactive oxygen species, particularly .OH, activate a group of cardiac sympathetic A delta- and C-fiber afferents during myocardial ischemia and reperfusion and may play an important role in mediating cardiovascular sympathetic reflex responses and/or pain transmission.

We have shown previously that reactive oxygen species stimulate abdominal sympathetic afferents to cause reflex cardiovascular activation. Because myocardial ischemia and reperfusion also generate reactive oxygen species, we investigated the possibility that cardiovascular reflexes could be induced by topical application of H2O2 to the anterior or posterior ventricular surface in cats anesthetized with alpha-chloralose. Mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), left ventricular (LV) pressure, aortic flow (AF), and first derivative of LV pressure at 40 mmHg developed pressure (LV dP/dt40) were monitored. H2O2 (44 and 130 mumol) significantly increased MAP but not HR or LV dP/dt40 in intact cats (n = 8). Application of H2O2 (44 mumol) significantly increased MAP (129 +/- 9 to 152 +/- 10 mmHg), HR (240 +/- 11 to 245 +/- 10 beats/min), AF (191 +/- 13 to 212 +/- 17 ml/min), total peripheral resistance (0.68 +/- 0.13 to 0.73 +/- 0.04 peripheral resistance units), and LV dP/dt40 (2,666 +/- 145 to 3,012 +/- 205 mmHg/s) after bilateral cervical vagotomy (n = 6). These H2O2-induced excitatory responses were abolished after bilateral T1-T4 ganglionectomy. In six additional cats, H2O2 (44 mumol) significantly decreased MAP (114 +/- 5 to 102 +/- 5 mmHg), HR (207 +/- 7 to 190 +/- 7 beats/min), and LV dP/dt40 (2,776 +/- 168 to 2,600 +/- 153 mmHg/s) after sympathectomy. These depressor responses were eliminated after vagotomy. The magnitude of the cardiovascular reflexes was increased or decreased in a dose-dependent fashion in vagotomized or sympathectomized cats, respectively, over a range of 440 nmol to 44 mumol H2O2. Application of H2O2 to the anterior or posterior ventricular surface resulted in similar pressor or depressor reflexes. Dimethylthiourea and deferoxamine abolished pressor or depressor responses evoked by H2O2 in both vagotomized (n = 8) and sympathectomized (n = 8) cats. We conclude that reactive oxygen species, particularly the hydroxyl radical, can participate in activating cardiac afferents responsible for reflex cardiovascular responses during myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. An inhibitory reflex is transmitted through vagal afferents, whereas an excitatory reflex is conducted by sympathetic cardiac afferents.

Adaptive Process

: There is considerable evidence in the heart that autophagy in cardiomyocytes is activated by hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) or in hearts by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Depending upon the experimental model and duration of ischemia, increases in autophagy in this setting maybe beneficial (cardioprotective) or deleterious (exacerbate I/R injury). Aside from the conundrum as to whether or not autophagy is an adaptive process, it is clearly regulated by a number of diverse molecules including reactive oxygen species (ROS), various kinases, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and nitric oxide (NO). The purpose this review is to address briefly the controversy regarding the role of autophagy in this setting and to examine a variety of disparate molecules that are involved in its regulation.

Introduction. Paracetamol is an effective analgesic/antipyretic drug when used at therapeutic doses. However, the overdose of paracetamol can cause severe liver injury and liver necrosis. The mechanism of paracetamol-induced liver injury is still not completely understood. Reactive metabolite formation, depletion of glutathione and alkylation of proteins are the triggers of inhibition of mitochondrial respiration, adenosine triphosphate depletion and mitochondrial oxidant stress leading to hepatocellular necrosis. Role of oxidative stress in paracetamol-induced liver injury. The importance of oxidative stress in paracetamol hepatotoxicity is controversial. Paracetamol induced liver injury cause the formation of reactive oxygen species. The potent sources of reactive oxygen are mitochondria, neutrophils, Kupffer cells and the enzyme xatnine oxidase. Free radicals lead to lipid peroxidation, enzymatic inactivation and protein oxidation. Role of mitochondria in paracetamol-induced oxidative stress. The production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species is increased, and the glutathione content is decreased in paracetamol overdose. Oxidative stress in mitochondria leads to mito?chondrial dysfunction with adenosine triphosphate depletion, increase mitochondrial permeability transition, deoxyribonu?cleic acid fragmentation which contribute to the development of hepatocellular necrosis in the liver after paracetamol overdose. Role of Kupffer cells in paracetamol-induced liver injury. Paracetamol activates Kupffer cells, which then release numerous cytokines and signalling molecules, including nitric oxide and superoxide. Kupffer cells are important in peroxynitrite formation. On the other hand, the activated Kupffer cells release anti-inflammatory cytokines. Role of neutrophils in paracetamol-induced liver injury. Paracetamol-induced liver injury leads to the accumulation of neutrophils, which release lysosomal enzymes and generate superoxide anion radicals through the enzyme nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase. Hydrogen peroxide, which is influenced by the neutrophil-derived enzyme myeloperoxidase, generates hypochlorus acid as a potent oxidant. Role of peroxynitrite in paracetamol-induced oxidative stress. Superoxide can react with nitric oxide to form peroxynitrite, as a potent oxidant. Nitrotyrosine is formed by the reaction of tyrosine with peroxynitrite in paracetamol hepatotoxicity. Conclusion. Overdose of paracetamol may produce severe liver injury with hepatocellular necrosis. The most important mechanisms of cell injury are metabolic activation of paracetamol, glutathione depletion, alkylation of proteins, especially mitochondrial proteins, and formation of reactive oxygen/nitrogen species.
