Glutathione Redox

The role of oxidative stress (OS) in cancer is a matter of great interest due to the implication of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and their oxidation products in the initiation of tumorigenesis, its progression, and metastatic dissemination. Great efforts have been made to identify the mechanisms of ROS-induced carcinogenesis; however, the validation of OS byproducts as potential tumor markers (TMs) remains to be established. This interventional study included a total of 80 colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and 60 controls. By measuring reduced glutathione (GSH), its oxidized form (GSSG), and the glutathione redox state in terms of the GSSG/GSH ratio in the serum of CRC patients, we identified significant changes as compared to healthy subjects. These findings are compatible with the effectiveness of glutathione as a TM. The thiol redox state showed a significant increase towards oxidation in the CRC group and correlated significantly with both the tumor state and the clinical evolution. The sensitivity and specificity of serum glutathione levels are far above those of the classical TMs CEA and CA19.9. We conclude that the GSSG/GSH ratio is a simple assay which could be validated as a novel clinical TM for the diagnosis and monitoring of CRC.

Abstract An accessible, time- and cost-efficient microplate assay to quantify protein thiol redox state in percentages and moles relative to the thiol proteome (i.e., context) and other targets (i.e., array mode) would be invaluable for understanding how protein thiols regulate essential biological processes. RedoxiFluor achieves several key benefits (i.e., percentages, moles, context, array mode) in a microplate format. After robustly validating RedoxiFluor, comparative analysis reveals that key benefits are intractable to other immunological techniques. Moles is an unprecedented achievement. Proof-of-concept studies illuminating fundamental redox principles (i.e., specificity, context, and heterogeneity) through measurement alone demonstrate how RedoxiFluor can advance understanding. For example, target specific protein thiol redox state changes are: (1) context specific (i.e., redox stimulus dependent); (2) selective (i.e., redox stimuli oxidise select targets); and (3) heterogenous (i.e., target responses vary markedly). RedoxiFluor is a powerful new tool for advancing a far-reaching and influential field: protein thiol redox biology.

Old Mice

Diastolic dysfunction is a prominent feature of cardiac aging in both mice and humans. We show here that 8-week treatment of old mice with the mitochondrial targeted peptide SS-31 (elamipretide) can substantially reverse this deficit. SS-31 normalized the increase in proton leak and reduced mitochondrial ROS in cardiomyocytes from old mice, accompanied by reduced protein oxidation and a shift towards a more reduced protein thiol redox state in old hearts. Improved diastolic function was concordant with increased phosphorylation of cMyBP-C Ser282 but was independent of titin isoform shift. Late-life viral expression of mitochondrial-targeted catalase (mCAT) produced similar functional benefits in old mice and SS-31 did not improve cardiac function of old mCAT mice, implicating normalizing mitochondrial oxidative stress as an overlapping mechanism. These results demonstrate that pre-existing cardiac aging phenotypes can be reversed by targeting mitochondrial dysfunction and implicate mitochondrial energetics and redox signaling as therapeutic targets for cardiac aging.

And Oxidative Stress

Sclerotial differentiation in Sclerotinia minor is associated with oxidative stress and thiol redox state. The significance of oxidative stress to sclerotial differentiation was revealed by the higher oxidative stress of S. minor compared with a nonsclerotiogenic counterpart. The effect of thiol redox state on sclerotial differentiation was shown by the antioxidant action of the thiol (-SH) group of N-acetylcysteine and cysteine and by an unknown (not antioxidant) role of glutathione (GSH) on S. minor. The nonantioxidant role of GSH was indicated by the differentiation-inhibiting and differentiation-noninhibiting actions of the GSH biosynthesis inhibitor l-buthionine-S,R-sulfoximine and the GSH biosynthesis inducer l-2-oxo-thiazolidine-4-carboxylate, respectively, and by the increase of oxidative stress they caused during the transition from the undifferentiated to differentiated state of S. minor. Moreover, N-acetylcysteine can be used as a potent nontoxic fungicide against this phytopathogenic fungus by acting as a growth-inhibiting cytotoxic oxidant and by sustaining the fungus in the undifferentiated hyphal stage, which is vulnerable to degradation by soil microorganisms.
