Necrotrophic Effectors

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a central role in plant immune responses. The most important virulence factors of the Stagonospora nodorum Berk. are multiple fungal necrotrophic effectors (NEs) (SnTox) that affect the redox-status and cause necrosis and/or chlorosis in wheat lines possessing dominant susceptibility genes (Snn). However, the effect of NEs on ROS generation at the early stages of infection has not been studied. We studied the early stage of infection of various wheat genotypes with S nodorum isolates -Sn4VD, SnB, and Sn9MN, carrying a different set of NE genes. Our results indicate that all three NEs of SnToxA, SnTox1, SnTox3 significantly contributed to cause disease, and the virulence of the isolates depended on their differential expression in plants (Triticum aestivum L.). The Tsn1–SnToxA, Snn1–SnTox1and Snn3–SnTox3 interactions played an important role in inhibition ROS production at the initial stage of infection. The Snn3–SnTox3 inhibited ROS production in wheat by affecting NADPH-oxidases, peroxidases, superoxide dismutase and catalase. The Tsn1–SnToxA inhibited ROS production in wheat by affecting peroxidases and catalase. The Snn1–SnTox1 inhibited the production of ROS in wheat by mainly affecting a peroxidase. Collectively, these results show that the inverse gene-for gene interactions between effector of pathogen and product of host sensitivity gene suppress the host’s own PAMP-triggered immunity pathway, resulting in NE-triggered susceptibility (NETS). These results are fundamentally changing our understanding of the development of this economical important wheat disease.

Objective: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated from activated platelets is known to regulate platelet activation. However, it remains unclear whether and how different isoforms of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (phosphate) (NAD(P)H) oxidases (NOXs) play roles in different platelet activation pathways. Here we investigated the role of NOX1 and NOX2 in different platelet activation pathways using NOX1 and NOX2 knockout mice. Approach and Results: NOX1-/- platelets showed selective defects in G protein coupled receptor (GPCR)-mediated platelet activation induced by thrombin, protease-activated receptor 4 agonist peptide (PAR4AP) and thromboxane A2 analog U46619, but was not affected in platelet activation induced by collagen-related peptide (CRP), a glycoprotein VI (GPVI) agonist. In contrast, NOX2-/- platelets showed potent inhibition of CRP-induced platelet activation, and also showed partial inhibition of thrombin-induced platelet aggregation and secretion. Consistently, production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was inhibited in NOX1-/- platelets stimulated with thrombin, but not CRP, whereas NOX2-/- platelets showed reduced ROS generation induced by CRP or thrombin. Interestingly, laser-induced arterial thrombosis was impaired in NOX2-/- mice, and in thrombocytopenic mice transfused with NOX2-/- platelets, suggesting an important role for NOX2-dependent platelet ROS production in the laser-induced injury model of thrombosis. Conclusions: NOX1 and NOX2 play differential roles in different platelet activation pathways: NOX1 mediates GPCR-mediated ROS production and platelet activation, whereas NOX2 plays a general role in GPVI- and GPCR-induced ROS production and platelet activation in vitro , and in laser-induced thrombosis in vivo .

Cell Compartments

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been recognized as important signaling compoundsof major importance in a number of developmental and physiological processes in plants. Theexistence of cellular compartments enables efficient redox compartmentalization and ensuresproper functioning of ROS‐dependent signaling pathways. Similar to other organisms, theproduction of individual ROS in plant cells is highly localized and regulated bycompartment‐specific enzyme pathways on transcriptional and post‐translational level. ROSmetabolism and signaling in specific compartments are greatly affected by their chemicalinteractions with other reactive radical species, ROS scavengers and antioxidant enzymes. Adysregulation of the redox status, as a consequence of induced ROS generation or decreasedcapacity of their removal, occurs in plants exposed to diverse stress conditions. During stresscondition, strong induction of ROS‐generating systems or attenuated ROS scavenging can lead tooxidative or nitrosative stress conditions, associated with potential damaging modifications of cellbiomolecules. Here, we present an overview of compartment‐specific pathways of ROS productionand degradation and mechanisms of ROS homeostasis control within plant cell compartments.

Priming Activity

Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from Gram-negative bacteria prime human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) via multicomponent receptor cluster including CD14 and MD-2·TLR4 for the enhanced release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were triggered by bacterial derived peptideN-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP). In this study, we investigated the impact of CD14 on LPS-induced priming of human PMNs for fMLP-triggered ROS generation (respiratory or oxidative) burst. Monoclonal antibodies against human CD14 (mAbs) as well as isotype-matched IgG2a did not influence significantly fMLP-triggered ROS production from LPS-unprimed PMNs. Anti-CD14 mAbs (clone UCHM-1) attenuated LPS-induced priming of PMNs as it had been mirrored by fMLP-triggered decrease of ROS production. Similar priming activity of S-LPS or Re-LPS fromEscherichia colifor fMLP-triggered ROS release from PMNs was found. Obtained results suggest that glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored CD14 is the key player in LPS-induced PMN priming for fMLP-triggered ROS production. We believe that blockade of CD14 on the cell surface and clinical use of anti-CD14 mAbs or their Fab fragments may diminish the production of ROS and improve outcomes during cardiovascular diseases manifested by LPS-induced inflammation.

Abstract Deregulation of tyrosine-kinases is a characteristic of most Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN); evolution from chronic phase to acute leukemia depends on the acquisition of additional mutations. Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), the production of which is increased by tyrosine-kinase activation, can be responsible for additional mutations. The role of ROS in generating genetic aberrations has been mainly studied in BCR-ABL-positive cell lines. Little is known of ROS metabolism in primary cells from CML or Philadelphia-negative MPN (Ph-MPN). After informed consent, cells from blood or bone marrow were obtained from patients diagnosed with CML (12 bone marrow (BM), 8 peripheral blood (PB)), or Ph-MPN (4 Polycythemia Vera, 6 Essential Thrombocythemia, 3 Primary Myelofibroses, 2 atypical CML) and from healthy donors (bone marrow donors) or patients devoid of hematological disease undergoing thoracotomy. Cells were incubated with DCFDA, a fluorogenic marker of ROS production, labelled with an anti-CD45 antibody, stimulated with either the oxidant hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or the PKC activator Phorbol Myristate Acetate (PMA), and analysed for ROS production by flow cytometry. CD45/SSC gating allowed separate analysis of granulocytes, monocytes or lymphocytes. The basal level of ROS was not higher in CML cells as compared to normal BM or PB leukocytes. It was even significantly lower in CML lymphocytes, either from the BM (2.35 Arbitrary Units vs 8.3 AU, p=5.5 10−5) or PB (2.47 AU vs 7.4 AU, p=3.10−5) and in CML granulocytes from peripheral blood (14 AU vs 45 AU, p =10 −5), but not bone marrow. The ROS levels of Ph-MPN cells were similar or slightly higher than control cells. Upon H2O2 stimulation however, ROS production increased significantly more in CML cells as compared to normal cells (6 fold increase), whatever the cell type (granulocytes, monocytes and lymphocytes) or their origin (PB or BM). In contrast, for Ph-MPN cells, H2O2-stimulated ROS production was close to that of normal cells, with only BM lymphocytes showing ROS generation four fold higher than control BM lymphocytes. After PMA stimulation, which yielded a more modest ROS production than H2O2, CML cells behaved similarly to normal cells, whereas ROS production was four fold higher in Ph-MPN cells, whatever their type and origin. In conclusion, ROS levels at the basal stage are not higher in MPN cells, whether they are Philadelphia positive or negative, as compared to normal cells. Various kinds of stimulation induce different patterns of response, CML cells being more sensitive to oxidants whereas Ph-MPN cells respond more to the cytokine-mimicking agent PMA. These results suggest that the mechanisms of ROS generation and thus of genetic instability are different in CML and Ph-MPN.

Bufalin has been shown to induce cancer cell death through apoptotic pathways. However, the molecular mechanisms are not well understood. In this study, we used the confocal fluorescence microscopy (CFM) to monitor the spatio-temporal dynamics of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, Bax translocation and caspase-3 activation during bufalin-induced apoptosis in living human lung adenocarcinoma (ASTC-a-1) cells. Bufalin induced ROS production and apoptotic cell death, demonstrated by Hoechst 33258 staining as well as flow cytometry analysis. Bax redistributed from cytosol to mitochondria from 12 to 48 h after bufalin treatment in living cells expressed with green fluorescent protein Bax. Treatment with the antioxidantN-acetyl-cysteine (NAC), a ROS scavenger, inhibited ROS generation and Bax translocation and led to a significant protection against bufalin-induced apoptosis. Our results also revealed that bufalin induced a prominent increase of caspase-3 activation blocked potently by NAC. Taken together, bufalin induced ROS-mediated Bax translocation, mitochondrial permeability transition and caspase-3 activation, implying that bufalin induced apoptosis via ROS-dependent mitochondrial death pathway in ASTC-a-1 cells.

Kras Mutations

Tumor heterogeneity in key gene mutations in bladder cancer (BC) is a major hurdle for the development of effective treatments. Using molecular, cellular, proteomics and animal models, we demonstrated that FL118, an innovative small molecule, is highly effective at killing T24 and UMUC3 high-grade BC cells, which have Hras and Kras mutations, respectively. In contrast, HT1376 BC cells with wild-type Ras are insensitive to FL118. This concept was further demonstrated in additional BC and colorectal cancer cells with mutant Kras versus those with wild-type Kras. FL118 strongly induced PARP cleavage (apoptosis hallmark) and inhibited survivin, XIAP and/or Mcl-1 in both T24 and UMUC3 cells, but not in the HT1376 cells. Silencing mutant Kras reduced both FL118-induced PARP cleavage and downregulation of survivin, XIAP and Mcl-1 in UMUC3 cells, suggesting mutant Kras is required for FL118 to exhibit higher anticancer efficacy. FL118 increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in T24 and UMUC3 cells, but not in HT1376 cells. Silencing mutant Kras in UMUC3 cells reduced FL118-mediated ROS generation. Proteomics analysis revealed that a profound and opposing Kras-relevant signaling protein is changed in UMUC3 cells and not in HT1376 cells. Consistently, in vivo studies indicated that UMUC3 tumors are highly sensitive to FL118 treatment, while HT1376 tumors are highly resistant to this agent. Silencing mutant Kras in UMUC3 cell-derived tumors decreases UMUC3 tumor sensitivity to FL118 treatment. Together, our studies revealed that mutant Kras is a favorable biomarker for FL118 targeted treatment.

The role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the in vitro maturation (IVM) of oocytes remains controversial. The aim of the present study was to determine possible fluctuations in ROS production during bovine oocyte IVM in the presence of different modulators of ROS generation. Cumulus–oocyte complexes were cultured in medium 199 (control) in the absence or presence of 0.6 mm cysteine, 1mm 1-choro-2,4-dinitro benzene (CDNB), 2μm diphenyliodonium, 0.5 mm N-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester or 10 μm sodium nitroprusside (SNP) at 39°C, in 5% CO2 in humidified air for 22 h. In addition, the respiratory chain effectors potassium cyanide (KCN; 1 mm) and carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (0.42 μm) were used. Meiotic maturation was determined by the presence of MII. ROS production was evaluated in denuded oocytes at different time points as the ratio of 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCHF-DA) to fluorescein diacetate (FDA). ROS levels, expressed as DCHF-DA : FDA, fluctuated throughout the 22 h of maturation depending on the treatment applied. At 12 h incubation in the presence of KCN and SNP, ROS levels were increased, whereas ROS levels after 12 h in the presence of cysteine were reduced (P < 0.05). Both CDNB and SNP impaired meiotic progression. The higher metabolic activity demand during bovine oocyte maturation coincides with a concomitant reduction in ROS generation. These results suggest that 12 h would be a critical point for bovine oocyte IVM because it is closely related to the production of ROS at this time.

NADPH oxidase 2 (Nox2)-generated reactive oxygen species (ROS) are critical for neutrophil (polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN)) microbicidal function. Nox2 also plays a role in intracellular signaling, but the site of oxidase assembly is unknown. It has been proposed to occur on secondary granules. We previously demonstrated that intracellular NADPH oxidase-derived ROS production is required for endotoxin priming. We hypothesized that endotoxin drives Nox2 assembly on endosomes. Endotoxin induced ROS generation within an endosomal compartment as quantified by flow cytometry (dihydrorhodamine 123 and Oxyburst Green). Inhibition of endocytosis by the dynamin-II inhibitor Dynasore blocked endocytosis of dextran, intracellular generation of ROS, and priming of PMN by endotoxin. Confocal microscopy demonstrated a ROS-containing endosomal compartment that co-labeled with gp91phox, p40phox, p67phox, and Rab5, but not with the secondary granule marker CD66b. To further characterize this compartment, PMNs were fractionated by nitrogen cavitation and differential centrifugation, followed by free flow electrophoresis. Specific subfractions made superoxide in the presence of NADPH by cell-free assay (cytochrome c). Subfraction content of membrane and cytosolic subunits of Nox2 correlated with ROS production. Following priming, there was a shift in the light membrane subfractions where ROS production was highest. CD66b was not mobilized from the secondary granule compartment. These data demonstrate a novel, nonphagosomal intracellular site for Nox2 assembly. This compartment is endocytic in origin and is required for PMN priming by endotoxin.

Mitochondrial Katp Channels

Ischemic preconditioning (I-PC) induced by brief episodes of ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) protects the heart against sustained I/R. Although activation of mitochondrial KATP channels (mitoKATP) interacting with reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been proposed as a key event in this process, their role in the antiarrhythmic effect is not clear. This study was designed: 1) to investigate the involvement of mito KATP opening in the effect of I-PC (1 cycle of I/R, 5 min each) on ventricular arrhythmias during test ischemia (TI, 30-min LAD coronary artery occlusion) in Langendorff-perfused rat hearts and subsequent postischemic contractile dysfunction, and 2) to characterize potential mechanisms of protection conferred by I-PC and pharmacological PC induced by mito KATP opener diazoxide (DZX), with particular regards to the modulation of ROS generation. Lipid peroxidation (an indicator of increased ROS production) was determined by measurement of myocardial concentration of conjugated dienes (CD) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) in nonischemic controls, non-preconditioned and preconditioned hearts exposed to TI, I-PC alone, as well as after pretreatment with DZX, mito KATP blocker 5-hydroxydecanoate (5-HD) and antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC). Total number of ventricular premature beats (VPB) that occurred in the control hearts (518±71) was significantly (P<0.05) reduced by I-PC (195±40), NAC (290±56) and DZX (168±22). I-PC and NAC suppressed an increase in CD and TBARS caused by ischemia indicating lower production of ROS. On the other hand, I-PC and DZX themselves moderately enhanced ROS generation, prior to TI. Bracketing of I-PC with 5-HD suppressed both, ROS production during PC and its cardioprotective effect. In conclusion, potential mechanisms of protection conferred by mito KATP opening in the rat heart might involve a temporal increase in ROS production in the preconditioning phase triggering changes in the pro/antioxidant balance in the myocardium and attenuating ROS production during subsequent prolonged ischemia.
