Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) induces production of the extracellular matrix (ECM) components collagen and fibronectin both in vitro and in vivo and is overexpressed in patients with fibrosing lung diseases, such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and systemic sclerosis (SSc). However, the mechanism by which IGFBP-5 exerts its fibrotic effect is incompletely understood. Recent reports have shown a substantial role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in fibrosis; thus we hypothesized that IGFBP-5 induces production of ROS to mediate the profibrotic process. In vitro analyses revealed that ROS production was induced by recombinant and adenoviral vector-mediated IGFBP-5 (AdBP5) in a dose- and time-dependent manner, regulated through MEK/ERK and JNK signaling, and primarily mediated by NADPH oxidase (Nox). Silencing IGFBP-5 in SSc and IPF fibroblasts reduced ROS production. The antioxidants diphenyleneiodonium and N-acetylcysteine blocked IGFBP-5-stimulated ECM production in normal, SSc, and IPF human primary lung fibroblasts. In murine fibroblasts lacking critical components of the Nox machinery, AdBP5-stimulated ROS production and fibronectin expression were reduced compared with wild-type fibroblasts. IGFBP-5 stimulated transcriptional expression of Nox3 in human fibroblasts while selective knockdown of Nox3 reduced ROS production by IGFBP-5. Thus IGFBP-5 mediates fibrosis through production of ROS in a Nox-dependent manner.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-oxidase (NADPH oxidase), an enzyme required to catalyze the oxidation of NADPH to NADP during the metabolism of glucose via the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), was considered as contributing to intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Production of superoxide anion and H2O2 via NADPH oxidase has been reported on a rabbit blastocyst surface (Manes and Lai 1995 J. Reprod. Fertil. 104, 69–75). The objective of this study was to examine the effects on in vitro development and intracellular ROS content after the addition of diphenyleneiodonium (DPI), an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, or dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), an inhibitor of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), to culture medium during the early embryonic development of in vitro-produced (IVP) porcine embryos. To confirm that these inhibitors lead to reduction in NADPH concentration in the embryo and hence likely to be inhibiting the PPP, a brilliant cresyl blue (BCB) test was performed on Day 2 (the day of insemination = Day 0) of culture. Porcine cumulus–oocyte complexes were matured and fertilized in vitro as described previously (Kikuchi et al. 2002 Biol. Reprod. 66, 1033–1041). Prezumptive zygotes were then cultured in NCSU-37 supplemented with 5.5 mM glucose and DPI at concentrations of 0.5 or 1 nM or DHEA at concentrations of 10 or 100 �M (DPI-0.5, DPI-1, DHEA-10 and DHEA-100 groups, respectively) from Day 0 to Day 2 of culture. All of the embryos were cultured subsequently until Day 6 in NCSU-37 supplemented with only 5.5 mM glucose. Data were analyzed by ANOVA. On Day 6, the development to the blastocyst stage of embryos in DPI-0.5, DPI-1, DHEA-10, and DHEA-100 groups were 16.1, 17.6, 16.1, and 19.5%, respectively, which were not significantly different from that of the control group (17.5%) (n d 165 per group, 5 replicates). However, the mean cell number in blastocysts derived from DPI-1, DHEA-10, and DHEA-100 groups (40.8 � 2.3, 39.3 � 1.7, and 42.5 � 2.7, respectively) was significantly higher (P < 0.01) than those in the control (33.4 � 1.6) and DPI-0.5 (32.7 � 1.6) groups. At 20 min after an exposure to BCB, the percentage of BCB+ embryos in DPI-1, DHEA-10, and DHEA-100 groups (73.8, 79.9, and 77.8%, respectively) were significantly higher (P < 0.01) than those in the control and DPI-0.5 groups (42% and 53.9%, respectively) (n = 81-92 per group, 6 replicates), indicating that these two inhibitors effectively induce the reduction of NADPH concentration in the embryos. Moreover, the addition of DPI at 1 nM or DHEA at 10 or 100 �M significantly decreased the H2O2 content of Day 2 embryos as compared with control embryos (n = 48-53 per group, 7 replicates). These results suggest that the addition of either DPI or DHEA to the medium during the first 2 days of culture did not impair the development of the embryos to the blastocyst stage. Decrease of cellular ROS production in Day 2 embryos in this study is interpreted as a result of inhibition of the NADPH oxidase by DPI or of the G6PDH by DHEA.

Glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) genes contain a homologous promoter sequence that is required for gene repression by insulin. Interestingly, this element interacts with members of the forkhead family of transcription factors [e.g. HNF3 (hepatic nuclear factor 3), FKHR (forkhead in rhabdomyosarcoma)] in vitro, while insulin promotes the phosphorylation and inactivation of FKHR in a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase- and protein kinase B (PKB)-dependent manner. This mechanism has been proposed to underlie insulin action on G6Pase and IGFBP-1 gene transcription. However, we find that treatment of cells with phorbol esters mimics the effect of insulin on G6Pase, but not IGFBP-1, gene expression. Indeed, phorbol ester treatment actually blocks the ability of insulin to repress IGFBP-1 gene expression. In addition, the action of phorbol esters is significantly reduced by inhibition of the p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway. However insulin-induced phosphorylation of PKB or FKHR is not affected by the presence of phorbol esters. Therefore we suggest that activation of p42/p44 MAP kinases will reduce the sensitivity of the IGFBP-1 gene promoter, but not the G6Pase gene promoter, to insulin. Importantly, the activation of PKB and phosphorylation of FKHR is not, in itself, sufficient to reduce IGFBP-1 gene expression in the presence of phorbol esters.

The extracellular matrix (ECM) facilitates pancreatic cancer cells survival, which is of central importance for pancreatic adenocarcinoma that is highly fibrotic. Here, we show that reactive oxygen species (ROS) mediate the prosurvival effect of ECM in human pancreatic cancer cells. Fibronectin and laminin stimulated ROS production and NADPH oxidase activation in pancreatic cancer cells. Both pharmacological and molecular approaches show that fibronectin stimulated ROS production through activation of NADPH oxidase and NADPH oxidase-independent pathways and that 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) mediates both these pathways. Analyses of the mechanisms of ROS production by ECM proteins and growth factors indicate that activation of NADPH oxidase (Nox4) is a common mechanism employed both by ECM proteins and growth factors to increase ROS in pancreatic cancer cells. We also found that Nox4 is present in human pancreatic adenocarcinoma tissues and that these tissues display membrane NADPH oxidase activity. ECM proteins and growth factors activate NADPH oxidase through different mechanisms; in contrast to ECM proteins, growth factors activate NADPH oxidase through 5-LO-independent mechanisms. Inhibition of 5-LO or NADPH oxidase with pharmacological inhibitors of these enzymes and with Nox4 or 5-LO antisense oligonucleotides markedly stimulated apoptosis in cancer cells cultured on fibronectin. Our results indicate that ROS generation via 5-LO and downstream NADPH oxidase mediates the prosurvival effect of ECM in pancreatic cancer cells. These mechanisms may play an important role in pancreatic cancer resistance to treatments and thus represent novel therapeutic targets.

Previous evidence suggests the existence of a thyroid hormone-IGF axis in the liver and changes in hepatic insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP) expression in rats with altered thyroid status have been previously reported. The aim of this study was to check if the higher IGFBP-2 mRNA levels observed in liver of hypothyroid rats could be due to a direct effect of thyroid hormone on the IGFBP-2 gene. In our experiments, cultured hepatocytes isolated from normal and hypothyroid adult rats were used. Northern blot analysis revealed barely detectable IGFBP-2 mRNA in normal rat hepatocytes, but easily detectable signal in hypothyroid rat cells. Therefore, the effect of tri-iodothyronine (T3) was investigated using cultured hepatocytes from hypothyroid rats as an in vitro model. The IGFBP-2 message was increased in a dose-dependent manner in hepatocytes cultured for 12-24 h in the presence of T3. A similar increase occurred in accumulation of IGFBP-2 in the culture medium, as measured by RIA. The effect of T3 on IGFBP-2 transcript levels appeared to consist of enhanced gene transcription and was independent of ongoing protein synthesis, but it was completely abolished by the incubation of hepatocytes with insulin. The latter result confirmed the dominant role of insulin in regulating IGFBP-2 expression by cultured hepatocytes. In vivo experiments confirmed an increase in hepatic IGFBP-2 mRNA and serum IGFBP-2 levels in hypothyroid rats and demonstrated, in addition, a significant increase in these measures in T3-treated rats. Taken together, our in vitro and in vivo results support a role for a thyroid hormone-IGF axis in the liver and suggest that other factors, such as insulin, interact in vivo with thryoid hormone in regulating hepatic IGFBP-2 expression.

<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with several systemic vascular symptoms and xerostomia. It is considered that hyperglycemia-induced polyuria and dehydration cause decreased body-water volume, leading to decreased saliva secretion and, ultimately, xerostomia. In T2DM, increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes tissue damage to vascular endothelial cells as well as epithelial tissue, including pancreas and cornea. Hence, a similar phenomenon may occur in other tissues and glands in a hyperglycemic environment. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Salivary gland tissue injury was examined, using T2DM model mouse (db/db). Transferase‐mediated dUTP nick‐end labeling (TUNEL) was conducted to evaluate tissue injury. The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine, Bax/Bcl-2 ratio were measured as indicator of oxidative stress. Moreover, in vitro ROS production and cell injury was evaluated by mouse salivary gland-derived normal cells under high-glucose condition culture. <b><i>Results:</i></b> In vivo and in vitro analysis showed a higher percentage of TUNEL-positive cells and higher levels of MDA and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine in salivary gland tissue of db/db mice. This suggests damage of saliva secretion-associated lipids and DNA by hyperglycemic-induced oxidative stress. To analyze the mechanism by which hyperglycemia promotes ROS production, mouse salivary gland-derived cells were isolated. The cell culture with high-glucose medium enhanced ROS production and promotes apoptotic and necrotic cell death. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> These findings suggest a novel mechanism whereby hyperglycemic-induced ROS production promotes salivary gland injury, resulting in hyposalivation.
