    Ferroptosis, an intricately regulated form of cell death characterized by uncontrolled lipid peroxidation, has garnered substantial interest since this term was first coined in 2012. Recent years have witnessed remarkable progress in elucidating the detailed molecular mechanisms that govern ferroptosis induction and defence, with particular emphasis on the roles of heterogeneity and plasticity. In this Review, we discuss the molecular ecosystem of ferroptosis, with implications that may inform and enable safe and effective therapeutic strategies across a broad spectrum of diseases.

    Iron is essential for all the lives and mitochondria integrate iron into heme and Fe-S clusters for diverse use as cofactors. Here, we screened mitochondrial proteins in KU812 human chronic myelogenous leukemia cells by glutathione S-transferase pulldown assay with PCBP2 to identify mitochondrial receptors for PCBP2, a major cytosolic Fe(II) chaperone. LC–MS analyses identified TOM20, sideroflexin-3 (SFXN3), SFXN1 and TOM70 in the affinity-score sequence. Stimulated emission depletion microscopy and proteinase-K digestion of mitochondria in HeLa cells revealed that TOM20 is located in the outer membrane of mitochondria whereas SFXN3 is located in the inner membrane. Although direct association was not observed between PCBP2 and SFXN3 with co-immunoprecipitation, proximity ligation assay demonstrated proximal localization of PCBP2 with TOM20 and there was a direct binding between TOM20 and SFXN3. Single knockdown either of PCBP2 and SFXN3 in K562 leukemia cells significantly decreased mitochondrial catalytic Fe(II) and mitochondrial maximal respiration. SFXN3 but not MFRN1 knockout (KO) in mouse embryonic fibroblasts decreased FBXL5 and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) but increased transferrin uptake and induced ferritin, indicating that mitochondrial iron entry through SFXN3 is distinct. MFRN1 KO revealed more intense mitochondrial Fe(II) deficiency than SFXN3 KO. Insufficient mitochondrial heme synthesis was evident under iron overload both with SFXN3 and MFRN KO, which was partially reversed by HO-1 inhibitor. Conversely, SFXN3 overexpression caused cytosolic iron deficiency with mitochondrial excess Fe(II), which further sensitized HeLa cells to RSL3-induced ferroptosis. In conclusion, we discovered a novel pathway of iron entry into mitochondria from cytosol through PCBP2-TOM20-SFXN3 axis.

    Reactive species are involved in various aspects of neoplastic diseases, including carcinogenesis, cancer-specific metabolism and therapeutics. Non-thermal plasma (NTP) can directly provide reactive species, by integrating atmospheric and interjacent molecules as substrates, to represent a handy strategy to load oxidative stress in situ. NTP causes apoptosis and/or ferroptosis specifically in cancer cells of various types. Plasma-activated Ringer's lactate (PAL) is another modality at the preclinical stage as cancer therapeutics, based on more stable reactive species. PAL specifically kills malignant mesothelioma (MM) cells, employing lysosomal ·NO as a switch from autophagy to ferroptosis. However, the entire molecular mechanisms have not been elucidated yet. Here we studied cytosolic iron regulations in MM and other cancer cells in response to PAL exposure. We discovered that cells with higher catalytic Fe(II) are more susceptible to PAL-induced ferroptosis. PAL caused a cytosolic catalytic Fe(II)-associated pathology through iron chaperones, poly (rC)-binding proteins (PCBP)1/2, inducing a disturbance in glutathione-regulated iron homeostasis. PCBP1/NCOA4-mediated ferritinophagy started at a later phase, further increasing cytosolic catalytic Fe(II), ending in ferroptosis. In contrast, PCBP2 after PAL exposure contributed to iron loading to mitochondria, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction. Therapeutic effect of PAL was successfully applied to an orthotopic MM xenograft model in mice. In conclusion, PAL can selectively sensitize MM cells to ferroptosis by remodeling cytoplasmic iron homeostasis, where glutathione and PCBPs play distinct roles, resulting in lethal ferritinophagy and mitochondrial dysfunction. Our findings indicate the clinical application of PAL as a ferroptosis-inducer and the potential of PCBPs as novel targets in cancer therapeutics.

    The pathogenesis of malignant mesothelioma (MM) has been extensively investigated, focusing on stress derived from reactive oxygen species. We aimed to identify diagnostic biomarkers of MM by analyzing proteins in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded specimens using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. We extracted proteins from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections of MM tissues (n = 7) and compared their profiles with those of benign mesothelial tissues (n = 4) and alveolar tissue (n = 1). Proteomic data were statistically assessed and profiled using principal component analysis. We were successful in the classification of MM and healthy tissue. The levels of superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), an enzyme that converts superoxide anion into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide, and thioredoxin (TXN), which plays a crucial role in reducing disulfide bonds in proteins, primarily contributed to the classification. Other redox-related proteins, such as pyruvate dehydrogenase subunit X, and ceruloplasmin also contributed to the classification. Protein-protein interaction analysis demonstrated that these proteins play essential roles in MM pathogenesis. Immunohistochemistry revealed that TXN levels were significantly lower, whereas SOD2 levels were significantly higher in MM and lung cancer tissues than in controls. Proteomic profiling suggested that MM tissues experienced increased exposure to hydrogen peroxide and other reactive oxygen species. Combining immunohistochemistry for TXN and SOD2 allows for differentiation among MM, lung cancer, and control tissues; hence, TXN and SOD2 may be promising MM biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

    Pathogenic variants of BRCA1/2 constitute hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome, and BRCA1/2 mutant is a risk for various cancers. Whereas the clinical guideline for HBOC patients has been organized for the therapy and prevention of cancer, there is no recommendation on the female reproductive discipline. Indeed, the role of BRCA1/2 pathogenic variants in ovarian reserve has not been established due to the deficiency of appropriate animal models. Here, we used a rat model of Brca2(p.T1942fs/+) mutant of Sprague-Dawley strain with CRISPR-Cas9 editing to evaluate ovarian reserve in females. Fertility and ovarian follicles were evaluated and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) was measured at 8–32 weeks of age with a comparison between the wild-type and the mutant rats (MUT). MUT revealed a significantly smaller number of deliveries with fewer total pups. Furthermore, MUT showed a significant decrease in primordial follicles at 20 weeks and a low AMH level at 28 weeks. RNA-sequencing of the ovary at 10 weeks detected acceleration of the DNA damage repair pathway, which was accompanied by oxidative stress-induced DNA double-strand breaks, a decrease in PTEN, and an increase in mTOR in follicular granulosa cells. In conclusion, Brca2(p.T1942fs/+) dissipates primordial follicles via early activation of granulosa cells through oxidative stress, leading to earlier termination of fertility.

    Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous human lymphotropic herpesvirus that is causally associated with several malignancies. In addition to latent factors, lytic replication contributes to cancer development. In this study, we examined whether the lytic gene BNRF1, which is conserved among gamma-herpesviruses, has an important role in lymphomagenesis. We found that lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) established by BNRF1-knockout EBV exhibited remarkably lower pathogenicity in a mice xenograft model than LCLs produced by wild-type EBV (LCLs-WT). RNA-seq analyses revealed that BNRF1 elicited the expression of interferon-inducible protein 27 (IFI27), which promotes cell proliferation. IFI27 knockdown in LCLs-WT resulted in excessive production of reactive oxygen species, leading to cell death and significantly decreased their pathogenicity in vivo. We also confirmed that IFI27 was upregulated during primary infection in B-cells. Our findings revealed that BNRF1 promoted robust proliferation of the B-cells that were transformed by EBV latent infection via IFI27 upregulation both in vitro and in vivo.

    Research on nonthermal plasma (NTP) devices first began almost five decades ago. NTP devices discharge electrons, positive ions, ultraviolet light, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) at near-physiological temperatures. Advances in plasma science have enabled the manipulation of ROS/RNS irradiation for medical applications. During preclinical stages and in human clinical trials, NTP promotes blood coagulation, eradication of bacterial, viral, and biofilm-related infections, wound healing, and cancer therapy. Previously, tetrachloroaurate (III) increased NTP-induced oxidative stress that was attenuated by reduced and oxidized glutathione, indicating that the presence of interactions between metal ions and biomolecules may modulate biological effects. In this study, using 3,3,5,5-tetramethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (M4PO) as a spin probe in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), we observed that the tetrachloroaurate-induced M4PO-X spin adduct was significantly suppressed by ascorbate and α-tocopherol, while dehydroascorbate (DHA) and Trolox were ineffective. Tetrachloroaurate-induced lipid peroxidation, which was measured by 2-thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) in combination with NTP exposure, was suppressed by ascorbate, α-tocopherol and Trolox, while DHA was ineffective. Furthermore, N-acetyl-L-cysteine and dithiothreitol efficiently suppressed tetrachloroaurate-induced M4PO-X spin adduct and lipid peroxidation. LC‒MS/MS analyzes identified hexanal that was significantly elevated by NTP exposure and/or tetrachloroaurate. However, 25 and 250 μM ascorbate did not significantly suppress the formation of aldehydes, such as acetaldehyde, hexanal, nonanal, nonenal, and 4‑hydroxy-2-nonenal. Further studies are warranted to elucidate the redox reactions between metal ions, including gold (III), and biomolecules to expand the possibility of NTP application in medicine and agriculture.

    This review provides a description of the historical background of the development of biological applications of low-temperature plasmas. The generation of plasma, methods and devices, plasma sources, and measurements of plasma properties, such as electron dynamics and chemical species generation in both gaseous and aqueous phases, were assessed. Currently, direct irradiation methods for plasma discharges contacting biological surfaces, such as the skin and teeth, are related to plasma biological interactions. Indirect methods using plasma-treated liquids are based on plasma–liquid interactions. The use of these two methods is rapidly increasing in preclinical studies and cancer therapy. The authors address the prospects for further developments in cancer therapeutic applications by understanding the interactions between the plasma and living organisms.

    Toxoplasmosis is a major infectious disease, affecting approximately one-third of the world's population; its main clinical manifestation, ocular toxoplasmosis (OT), is a severe sight-threatening disease. Nevertheless, the diagnosis of OT is based on clinical findings, which needs improvement, even with biochemical tests, such as polymerase chain reaction and antibody detections. Furthermore, the efficacy of OT-targeted treatment is limited; thus, additional measures for diagnosis and treatments are needed. Here, we for the first time report a significantly reduced iron concentration in the vitreous humor (VH) of human patients infected with OT. To obtain further insights into molecular mechanisms, we established a mouse model of T. gondii infection, in which intravitreally injected tracer 57Fe, was accumulated in the neurosensory retina. T. gondii-infected eyes showed increased lipid peroxidation, reduction of glutathione peroxidase-4 expression and mitochondrial deformity in the photoreceptor as cristae loss. These findings strongly suggest the involvement of ferroptotic process in the photoreceptor of OT. In addition, deferiprone, an FDA-approved iron chelator, reduced the iron uptake but also ameliorated toxoplasma-induced retinochoroiditis by reducing retinal inflammation. In conclusion, the iron levels in the VH could serve as diagnostic markers and iron chelators as potential treatments for OT.

    Significance: Iron is an essential element for every life on earth as a primary media for electron flow. Sulfur compounds as sulfhydryls counteract catalytic activity of iron whereas sulfur overdose is also toxic. In aerobic organisms, oxygen is the major media for electron transfer with higher intracellular mobility, which cooperates with the iron system. Based on the importance of iron, there is no active pathway to excrete iron outside the body in higher species. Whereas bacterial infection causes a scramble for iron in situ, cancer can be the outcome of the side effects of long use of iron and oxygen. Recent Advances: Ferroptosis is a recently coined cell death, defined as catalytic Fe(II)-dependent regulated necrosis accompanied by lipid peroxidation. Researchers recently recognized that ferroptosis is involved in a variety of physiological and pathological contexts, including embryonic erythropoiesis, aging, neurodegeneration and cancer cell death. Alternatively, carcinogenesis is a process to obtain iron addiction with ferroptosisresistance, based on rodent animal studies. Critical Issues: Here we propose that ferroptosis is three-dimensionally regulated by iron, sulfur and oxygen, which correspond to oxidants, antioxidants and membrane fluidity with susceptibility to lipid peroxidation, respectively. Future Directions: Whereas life attempts to prevent ferroptosis, ferroptotic cells eventually emit iron-loaded ferritin as extracellular vesicles to maintain monopoly of iron. Antioxid.

    Ferritin is a spherical nanocage protein for iron storage, composed of 24 light- or heavy-polypeptide chain subunits. A single ferritin molecule can carry up to 4500 iron atoms in its core, which plays an important role in suppressing intracellular iron toxicity. Serum ferritin levels are used as a marker for the total amount of iron stored in the body. Most serum ferritin is iron-free (apo-ferritin) and it is unclear how ferritin is released from cells. Ferritin is secreted into serum via extracellular vesicles (EVs) or the secretory autophagy pathway but not via the classical endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-to-Golgi secretion pathway. We recently discovered that the level of tetraspanin CD63, a common EV marker, is post-transcriptionally regulated by the intracellular iron level and both CD63 and ferritin expression is induced by iron loading. Ferritin is incorporated into CD63(+)-EVs through the ferritin-specific autophagy adapter molecule, NCOA4, and then secreted from cells. EV production differs drastically depending on cell type and physiological conditions. Extracellular matrix detached cells express pentaspanin prominin 2 and prominin 2(+)-EVs secrete ferritin independently of NCOA4 trafficking. Ferritin is tightly bound to iron in EVs and functions as an iron-carrier protein in the extracellular environment. Cells can suppress ferroptosis by secreting holo-ferritin, which reduces intracellular iron concentration. However, this exposes the neighboring cells receiving the secreted holo-ferritin to a large excess of iron. This results in cellular toxicity through increased generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here we review the machinery by which ferritin is incorporated into EVs and its role as an intercellular communication molecule.

    Current progress in biology and medical science is based on the observation at the level of nanometers via electron microscopy and computation. Of note, the size of most cells in higher species exists in a limited range from 5 to 50 μm. Recently, it was demonstrated that endogenous extracellular nanoparticles play a role in communication among various cellular types in a variety of contexts. Among them, exosomes in serum have been established as biomarkers for human diseases by analyzing the cargo molecules. No life on the earth can survive without iron. However, excess iron can be a risk for carcinogenesis in rodents and humans. Nano-sized molecules may cause unexpected bioeffects, including carcinogenesis, which is a process to establish cellular iron addiction with ferroptosis-resistance. Asbestos and carbon nanotubes are the typical examples, leading to carcinogenesis by the alteration of iron metabolism. Recently, we found that CD63, one of the representative markers of exosomes, is under the regulation of iron-responsive element/iron-regulatory protein system. This is a safe strategy to share excess iron in the form of holo-ferritin between iron-sufficient and -deficient cells. On the other hand, damaged cells may secrete holo-ferritin-loaded exosomes as in the case of macrophages in ferroptosis after asbestos exposure. These holo-ferritin-loaded exosomes can cause mutagenic DNA damage in the recipient mesothelial cells. Thus, there is an iron link between exogenous and endogenous nanoparticles, which requires further investigation for better understanding and the future applications.

    Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by central nervous (CNS) demyelination resulting in axonal injury and neurological deficits. Essentially, MS is driven by an auto-amplifying mechanism of inflammation and cell death. Current therapies mainly focus on disease modification by immunosuppression, while no treatment specifically focuses on controlling cell death injury. Here, we report that ferroptosis, an iron-catalyzed mode of regulated cell death (RCD), contributes to MS disease progression. Active and chronic MS lesions and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of MS patients revealed several signs of ferroptosis, reflected by the presence of elevated levels of (labile) iron, peroxidized phospholipids and lipid degradation products. Treatment with our candidate lead ferroptosis inhibitor, UAMC-3203, strongly delays relapse and ameliorates disease progression in a preclinical model of relapsing-remitting MS. In conclusion, the results identify ferroptosis as a detrimental and targetable factor in MS. These findings create novel treatment options for MS patients, along with current immunosuppressive strategies. [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

    Significance: The significance of ferroptosis in cancer therapeutics has now been unveiled. Specific ferroptosis inducers are expected as a promising strategy for cancer treatment, especially in cancers with epithelial mesenchymal transition and possibly in cancers with activated Hippo signaling pathways, both of which cause resistance to traditional chemotherapy but tend to show ferroptosis susceptibility. Recent Advances: Ferroptosis is a new form of regulated non-apoptotic cell death, which is characterized by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, leading eventually to plasma membrane rupture. Its core mechanisms have been elucidated, consisting of a driving force as catalytic Fe(II)-dependent Fenton reaction and an incorporation of polyunsaturated fatty acids to membrane phospholipids via peroxisome-dependent and -independent pathways, and suppressing factors as prevention of lipid peroxidation with glutathione peroxidase 4 and direct membrane repair via coenzyme Q10 and ESCRT-III pathways. Critical Issues: Developments of ferroptosis inducers are in progress by nanotechnology-based drugs or by innovative engineering devices. Especially, low-temperature (non-thermal) plasma is a novel technology at the preclinical stage. The exposure can induce ferroptosis selectively in cancer cells rich in catalytic Fe(II). Future Directions: We also summarize and discuss the recently uncovered responsible molecular mechanisms in association with iron metabolism, ferroptosis and cancer therapeutics. Targeting ferroptosis in addition to the current therapeutic modalities would be important to cure advanced-stage cancer. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 39, 206-223.

    For the design and development of innovative carbon nanotube (CNT)-based tools and applications, an understanding of the molecular interactions between CNTs and biological systems is essential. In this study, a three-dimensional protein-structure-based in silico screen identified the paired immune receptors, sialic acid immunoglobulin-like binding lectin-5 (Siglec-5) and Siglec-14, as CNT-recognizing receptors. Molecular dynamics simulations showed the spatiotemporally stable association of aromatic residues on the extracellular loop of Siglec-5 with CNTs. Siglec-14 mediated spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk)-dependent phagocytosis of multiwalled CNTs and the subsequent secretion of interleukin-1β from human monocytes. Ectopic in vivo expression of human Siglec-14 on mouse alveolar macrophages resulted in enhanced recognition of multiwalled CNTs and exacerbated pulmonary inflammation. Furthermore, fostamatinib, a Syk inhibitor, blocked Siglec-14-mediated proinflammatory responses. These results indicate that Siglec-14 is a human activating receptor recognizing CNTs and that blockade of Siglec-14 and the Syk pathway may overcome CNT-induced inflammation.

    Lactate is used in the food and pharmaceutical industries and is a crucial intermediate for synthesis. Plasma-activated lactate (PAL) in Ringer's solution was recently shown to have effective antitumor action. Small molecule aldehydes, ketones, and organic acids were produced from lactate during plasma exposure, and five-membered conjugated lactone isomers of furanone (C5H6O2) were detected formed by interactions of lactate or its fragments with •OH, organic radicals, and H2O2. 2,3-Dimethyl-tartaric acid may be the effective component in PAL for the selective killing of cancer but not normal cells and possible pathways for its synthesis are provided. Aqueous reaction mechanisms are explained, including dehydration, esterification, hydrolysis, and dimerization. This study will help develop novel cancer therapies and further plasma organic chemistry.

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is still a social burden associated with asbestos exposure. Local iron accumulation thereby represents the major pathogenesis, followed by oxidative DNA strand breaks and genomic alterations in the mesothelium. BRCA1 is a critical component of homologous recombination repair directed to DNA double-stranded breaks, whereas BRCA1 germline mutation is an established risk for breast/ovarian cancer, its role in MM development remains to be elucidated. Murine Brca1 mutant models so far have not reproduced human phenotypes. However, a rat Brca1 mutant model (Mut; L63X/+) recently reproduced them at least partially. Here we describe the differential induction of MM in Brca1 mutant rats by intraperitoneal injection of chrysotile or crocidolite. Only Mut males injected with chrysotile revealed a promotional effect on mesothelial carcinogenesis in comparison with wild-type and/or females, with all the MMs Brca1 haploinsufficient. Array-based comparative genomic hybridization of MMs disclosed a greater extent of chromosomal deletions in Brca1 mutants, including Cdkn2a/2b accompanied by Tfr2 amplification, in comparison with wild-type tumors. Mutant MMs indicated iron metabolism dysregulation, such as an increase in catalytic Fe(II) and Ki67-index as well as a decrease in Fe(III) and ferritin expression. Simultaneously, mutant MMs revealed ferroptosis resistance by upregulation of Slc7A11 and Gpx4. At an early carcinogenic stage of 4 weeks, induced Brca1 expression in mesothelial cells was significantly suppressed in chrysotile/Mut in comparison with crocidolite/Mut, whereas significant preference to iron with a decrease in Fe(III) has been already established. In conclusion, chrysotile exposure can be a higher risk for MM in BRCA1 mutant males, considering the rat results.

    We fabricated sensors by modifying the surface of MoS2 and WS2 with COVID-19 antibodies and investigated their characteristics, including stability, reusability, sensitivity, and selectivity. Thiols and disulfanes in antibodies strongly interact with vacant Mo or W sites of MoS2 or WS2, yielding durable devices that are stable for several days in the air or water. More importantly, detachment of the antibodies is suppressed even during the aggressive cleaning process of the devices at pH 3, which allows reusing the same device in several experiments without appreciable loss of sensitivity. Therefore, the nanodevice may be employed in samples of different patients. Further, we found a limit of detection (LOD) of 1 fg ml−1 at room temperature, time responses of 1 second, and selectivity against interferences such as KLH protein or Albumin.

    Cold atmospheric pressure plasmas are promising medical tools that can assist in cancer treatment. While the medical pathology mechanism is substantially understood, knowledge of the contribution of reactive species formed in plasma and the mode of activation of biochemical pathways is insufficient. Herein, we present a concept involving antitumoral plasma-activated organics, which is envisaged to increase cytotoxicity levels against cancer cells. Ringer′s acetate solution was irradiated by low-temperature plasma at atmospheric pressure and possible reaction pathways of the compound generation are presented. The chemical compounds formed by plasma treatment and their effects on non-tumorigenic breast epithelial cells (MCF-10A) and breast cancer cells (MCF-7) were investigated. The cell viability results have shown that plasma-derived compounds have both, stimulatory and inhibitory effects on cell viability, depending on the concentration of the generated compounds in the irradiated liquids. Previous studies have shown that oxidative stresses involving reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) can be used to kill cancer cells. Hence, while RONS offers promising first-step killing effects, cell viability results have shown that plasma-derived compounds, such as acetic anhydride and ethyl acetate, have the potential to play important roles in plasma-based cancer therapy.

    Cancer is the primary cause of human mortality in Japan since 1981. Although numerous novel therapies have been developed and applied in clinics, the number of deaths from cancer is still increasing worldwide. It is time to consider the strategy of cancer prevention more seriously. Here we propose a hypothesis that cancer can be side effects of long time-use of iron and oxygen and that carcinogenesis is an evolution-like cellular events to obtain “iron addiction with ferroptosis-resistance” where genes and environment interact each other. Among the recognized genetic risk factors for carcinogenesis, we here focus on BRCA1 tumor suppressor gene and how environmental factors, including daily life exposure and diets, may impact toward carcinogenesis under BRCA1 haploinsufficiency. Although mice models of BRCA1 mutants have not been successful for decades in generating phenotype mimicking the human counterparts, a rat model of BRCA1 mutant was recently established that reasonably mimics the human phenotype. Two distinct categories of oxidative stress, one by radiation and one by iron-catalyzed Fenton reaction, promoted carcinogenesis in Brca1 rat mutants. Furthermore, mitochondrial damage followed by alteration of iron metabolism finally resulted in ferroptosis-resistance of target cells in carcinogenesis. These suggest a possibility that cancer prevention by active pharmacological intervention may be possible for BRCA1 mutants to increase the quality of their life rather than preventive mastectomy and/or oophorectomy.

    Low-temperature plasma (LTP) has been widely used in life science. Plasma-activated solutions were defined as solutions irradiated with LTP, and water, medium, and Ringer’s solutions have been irradiated with LTP to produce plasma-activated solutions. They contain chemical compounds produced by reactions among LTP, air, and solutions. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) are major components in plasma-activated solutions and recent studies revealed that plasma-activated organic compounds are produced in plasma-activated Ringer’s lactate solution (PAL). Many in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated that PAL exhibits anti-tumor effects on cancers, and biochemical analyses revealed intracellular molecular mechanisms of cancer cell death by PAL.

    COVID-19 has been pandemic since 2020 with persistent generation of new variants. Cellular receptor for SARS-CoV-2 is angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), where transmembrane serine protease-2 (TMPRSS2) is essential for viral internalization. We recently reported abundant expression of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 in the oral cavity of humans and mice. Therefore, oral cavity may work for COVID-19 infection gates. Here we undertook to evaluate whether vaccination in the tongue harbors any merit in comparison to subcutaneous injection. Low-temperature plasma (LTP) is the fourth physical state of matters with ionization above gas but at body temperature. LTP provides complex chemistry, eventually supplying oxidative and/or nitrosative stress on the interface. LTP-associated cellular death has been reported to cause apoptosis and/or ferroptosis. However, there is few data available on immunogenicity retention after LTP exposure. We therefore studied the effect of LTP exposure after the injection of keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) or spike 2 protein of SARS-CoV-2 to the tongue of six-week-old male BALB/c mice, compared to subcutaneous vaccination. Whereas LTP did not change the expression of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 in the tongue, repeated LTP exposure after tongue vaccination significantly promoted systemic and specific IgM production at day 11. In contrast, repeated LTP exposure after subcutaneous vaccination of KLH decreased systemic IgM production. Of note, tongue injection produced significantly higher titer of IgM and IgG in the case of KLH. In conclusion, LTP significantly reinforced humoral immunity by IgM after tongue injection. Vaccination to the tongue can be a novel strategy to acquire immediate immunity.

    Plasma is the fourth physical state of matter, characterized by an ionized gaseous mixture, after solid, liquid, and gas phases, and contains a wide array of components such as ions, electrons, radicals, and ultraviolet ray. Whereas the sun and thunder are typical natural plasma, recent progress in the electronics enabled the generation of body-temperature plasma, designated as low-temperature plasma (LTP) or non-thermal plasma since the 1990s. LTP has attracted the attention of researchers for possible biological and medical applications. All the living species on earth utilize water as essential media for solvents and molecular transport. Thus, biological application of LTP naturally intervenes water whether LTP is exposed directly or indirectly, where plasma-activated lactate (PAL) is a standard, containing H2O2, NO2− and other identified molecules. Electron spin resonance and immunohistochemical studies demonstrated that LTP exposure is a handy method to load local oxidative stress. Cancer cells are characterized by persistent self-replication and high cytosolic catalytic Fe(II). Therefore, both direct exposure of LTP and PAL can provide higher damage to cancer cells in comparison to non-tumorous cells, which has been demonstrated in a variety of cancer types. The cell death mode is either apoptosis or ferroptosis, depending on the cancer-type. Thus, LTP and PAL are expected to work as an additional cancer therapy to the established guideline protocols, especially for use in somatic cavities or surgical margins.

    Non-thermal plasma (NTP) is a recently developed technology that elicits a variety of biological effects. This includes cancer cell-specific cytotoxicity, which is mainly attributed to the regional generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). We studied the effects of NTP on malignant mesothelioma (MM) and its modulation by L-ascorbate. L-ascorbate is a major water-soluble anti-oxidant in vivo, but its pro-oxidant activity in vitro has been well recognized. Thus, the effects of ascorbate on the efficacy of NTP is important to examine. NTP exposure dose-dependently killed MM cells, whereas MM cells tolerated 1 mM L-ascorbate. However, brief pre-treatment with a pharmacological dose (250–750 μM) of L-ascorbate immediately prior to NTP exposure significantly increased its cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner, which was inhibited by the iron chelator, deferoxamine. However, paradoxically, this potentiating effect of L-ascorbate was completely abolished by a prolonged 4 h pre-incubation with L-ascorbate (500 μM). MM cytotoxicity induced by NTP was associated with immediate oxidative stress evaluated by 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorecein diacetate, which was followed by an increase in the expression of the autophagosome marker, LC3B-II. In conclusion, MM can be a target for NTP treatment and L-ascorbate can increase or decrease its efficacy depending on the length of the pre-incubation period.

    Sunlight exposure and aging are two major factors in the deterioration of skin function. In the present study, we used eighty formalin-fixed human skin samples from sun-exposed and unexposed areas from old and young individuals to evaluate the presence of miR-125b-positive epidermal stem cells (ESCs) by in situ hybridization. miR-125b-positive ESCs were detected in the basal layer of the epidermis. The density of miR-125b-positive ESCs was significantly associated with age rather than sun exposure, whereas the density of miR-125b-positive ESCs tended to decrease in the sun-exposed area. These data suggest the potential use of miR-125b as a surrogate marker for the quality of epidermal cells.

    Asbestos exposure is considered a social burden bycausing meso-thelioma. Despite the use of synthetic materials, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are similar in dimension to asbestos and produce mesothelioma in animals. The role of inflammatory cells in mesothelial carcinogenesis remains unclear. Here, we evaluated the differences in inflammatory cell responses following exposure to these fibrous materials using a luminometer and L-012 (8-amino-5-chloro-7-phenylpyrido[3,4-dlpyridazine-1,4-(2H,3H) dione) to detect reactive oxygen species (ROS). Rat peripheral blood or RAW264.7 cells were used to assess the effects on neutro-phils and macrophages, respectively. Crocidolite and amosite induced significant ROS generation by neutrophils with a peak at 10 min, whereas that of chrysotile was ∼25% of the crocidolite/ amosite response. MWCNTs with different diameters (∼15, 50, 115 and 145 nm) and different carcinogenicity did not induce significant ROS in peripheral blood. However, the MWCNTs induced a comparable amount of ROS in RAW264.7 cells to that following asbestos treatment. The peaks for MWCNTs (0.5-1.5 h) were observed earlier than those for asbestos (1-5 h). Apocynin and superoxide dismutase significantly inhibited ROS generation for each fiber, suggesting an involvement of NADPH oxidase and superoxide. Thus, asbestos and MWCNTs induce different oxida-tive responses in inflammatory cells, indicating the importance of mesothelial cell evaluation for carcinogenesis.

    Amniotic fluid contains numerous biomolecules derived from fetus and mother, thus providing precious information on pregnancy. Here, we evaluated oxidative stress of human amniotic fluid and measured the concentration of catalytic Fe(II). Amniotic fluid samples were collected with consent from a total of 89 subjects in Nagoya University Hospital, under necessary medical interventions: normal pregnancy at term, normal pregnancy at the 2nd trimester, preterm delivery with maternal disorders but without fetal disorders, congenital diaphragmatic hernia, fetal growth restriction, pregnancy-induced hypertension, gestational diabetes mellitus, Down syndrome and trisomy 18. Catalytic Fe(II) and oxi-dative stress markers (8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, 8-OHdG; dityrosine) were determined with RhoNox-1 and specific antibodies, respectively, using plate assays. Levels of 8-OHdG and dityrosine were higher in the 3rd trimester compared with the 2nd trimester in normal subjects, and the abnormal groups generally showed lower levels than the controls, thus suggesting that they represent fetal metabolic activities. In contrast, catalytic Fe(II) was higher in the 2nd trimester than the 3rd trimester in the normal subjects, and overall the abnormal groups showed higher levels than the controls, suggesting that high catalytic Fe(II) at late gestation reflects fetal pathologic alterations. Notably, products of H2O2 and catalytic Fe(II) remained almost constant in amniotic fluid.

    Due to the formerly widespread use of asbestos, malignant mesothelioma (MM) is increasingly frequent worldwide. MM is classified into epithelioid (EM), sarcomatoid (SM), and biphasic subtypes. SM is less common than EM but is recognized as the most aggressive type of MM, and these patients have a poor prognosis. To identify genes responsible for the aggressiveness of SM, we induced EM and SM in rats, using asbestos, and compared their transcriptomes. Based on the results, we focused on connective tissue growth factor (Ctgf), whose expression was significantly increased in SM compared with EM; EM itself exhibited an increased expression of Ctgf compared with normal mesothelium. Particularly in SM, Ctgf was a major regulator of MM proliferation and invasion through activation of the β-catenin-TCF-LEF signalling pathway, which is autocrine and formed a positive feedback loop via LRP6 as a receptor for secreted Ctgf. High Ctgf expression also played a role in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition in MM. Furthermore, Ctgf is a novel serum biomarker for both early diagnosis and determining the MM prognosis in rats. These data link Ctgf to SM through the LRP6-GSK3β-β-catenin-TCF-Ctgf autocrine axis and suggest Ctgf as a therapeutic target. Copyright © 2014 Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland.

    Like many other human cancers, the development of malignant mesothelioma is closely associated with a chronic inflammatory condition. Both macrophages and mesothelial cells play crucial roles in the inflammatory response caused by asbestos exposure. Here, we show that adipocytes can also contribute to asbestos-induced inflammation through dysregulated adipocytokine production. 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were differentiated into mature adipocytes prior to use. These cells took up asbestos fibers (chrysotile, crocidolite and amosite) but were more resistant to asbestos-induced injury than macrophages and mesothelial cells. Expression microarray analysis followed by reverse transcription-PCR revealed that adipocytes respond directly to asbestos exposure with an increased production of proinflammatory adipocytokines [e.g. monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1)], whereas the production of anti-inflammatory adipocytokines (e.g. adiponectin) is suppressed. This was confirmed in epididymal fat pad of mice after intraperitoneal injection of asbestos fibers. Such dysregulated adipocytokine production favors the establishment of a proinflammatory environment. Furthermore, MCP-1 marginally promoted the growth of MeT-5A mesothelial cells and significantly enhanced the wound healing of Y-MESO-8A and Y-MESO-8D human mesothelioma cells. Our results suggest that increased levels of adipocytokines, such as MCP-1, can potentially contribute to the promotion of mesothelial carcinogenesis through the enhanced recruitment of inflammatory cells as well as a direct growth and migration stimulatory effect on mesothelial and mesothelioma cells. Taken together, our findings support a potential cancer-promoting role of adipocytes in asbestos-induced mesothelial carcinogenesis. © The Author 2013. Published by Oxford University Press.

    Asbestos is a potent carcinogen associated with increased risks of malignant mesothelioma and lung cancer in humans. Although the mechanism of carcinogenesis remains elusive, the physicochemical characteristics of asbestos play a role in the progression of asbestos-induced diseases. Among these characteristics, a high capacity to adsorb and accommodate biomolecules on its abundant surface area has been linked to cellular and genetic toxicity. Several previous studies identified asbestos-interacting proteins. Here, with the use of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry, we systematically identified proteins from various lysates that adsorbed to the surface of commercially used asbestos and classified them into the following groups: chromatin/nucleotide/RNA-binding proteins, ribosomal proteins, cytoprotective proteins, cytoskeleton-associated proteins, histones and hemoglobin. The surfaces of crocidolite and amosite, two iron-rich types of asbestos, caused more protein scissions and oxidative modifications than that of chrysotile by in situ-generated 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal. In contrast, we confirmed the intense hemolytic activity of chrysotile and found that hemoglobin attached to chrysotile, but not silica, can work as a catalyst to induce oxidative DNA damage. This process generates 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine and thus corroborates the involvement of iron in the carcinogenicity of chrysotile. This evidence demonstrates that all three types of asbestos adsorb DNA and specific proteins, providing a niche for oxidative modification via catalytic iron. Therefore, considering the affinity of asbestos for histones/DNA and the internalization of asbestos into mesothelial cells, our results suggest a novel hypothetical mechanism causing genetic alterations during asbestos-induced carcinogenesis. © 2011 Japanese Cancer Association.

    Aging and exposure to sunlight are two major factors in the deterioration of skin function. In this study, thirty-six fixed human skin samples from sun-exposed and unexposed areas from young and old individuals were used to evaluate the localization of oxidative stress according to levels and distribution of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine and N ε- (carboxymethyl)lysine in samples using immunohistochemistry. In the epidermis of the young, negligible amounts of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine and N ε-(carboxymethyl)lysine were detected in unexposed areas, whereas nuclear 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine and cytoplasmic N ε-(carboxymethyl)lysine were increased in the lower epidermis in sun-exposed areas. In contrast, the aged presented prominent nuclear 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine and nuclear N ε-(carboxymethyl) lysine in the epidermis of unexposed areas, concomitant with dermal increase in N ε-(carboxymethyl)lysine. However, the immunostaining of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine and N ε-(carboxymethyl)lysine revealed a decrease in the epidermis of sun-exposed areas in the aged. These results suggest an age-dependent difference in the adaptation and protective mechanisms of the epidermis against sunlight-associated oxidative stress, thus necessitating distinct standards for evaluation in each age group. Further investigation is warranted to elucidate underlying molecular mechanisms. ©2011 JCBN.

    Several types of fibrous stone called asbestos have been an unexpected cause of human cancer in the history. This form of mineral is considered precious in that they are heat-, friction-, and acid-resistant, are obtained easily from mines, and can be modified to any form with many industrial merits. However, it became evident that the inspiration of asbestos causes a rare cancer called malignant mesothelioma. Because of the long incubation period, the peak year for malignant mesothelioma is expected to be 2025 in Japan. Thus, it is necessary to elucidate the mechanisms of asbestos-induced mesothelial carcinogenesis. In this review, we summarize the cutting edge results of our 5-year project funded by a MEXT grant, in which local iron deposition and the characteristics of mesothelial cells are the key issues.

    Nano-sized durable fibrous materials such as carbon nanotubes have raised safety concerns similar to those raised by asbestos. However, the mechanism by which particulates with ultrafine structure cause inflammation and ultimately cancer (e.g. malignant mesothelioma and lung cancer) is largely unknown. This is partially because the particulates are not uniform and they vary in a plethora of factors. Such variances include length, diameter, surface area, density, shape, contaminant metals (including iron) and crystallinity. Each of these factors is involved in particulate toxicity both in vitro and in vivo. Thus, the elicited biological responses are incredibly complicated. Various kinds of fibers were evaluated with different cells, animals and methods. The aim of this review is to concisely summarize previous reports from the standpoint that activation of macrophages and mesothelial injury are the two major mechanisms of inflammation and possibly cancer. Importantly, these two mechanisms appear to be interacting with each other. However, there is a lack of data on the interplay of macrophage and mesothelium especially in vivo. Since fibrous nanomaterials present potential applications in various fields, it is necessary to develop standard evaluation methods to minimize risks for human health. © 2010 Elsevier Inc.

    Respiratory exposure to asbestos has been linked with mesothelioma in humans. However, its carcinogenic mechanism is still unclear. Here we studied the ability of chrysotile, crocidolite and amosite fibers to induce oxidative DNA damage and the modifying factors using four distinct approaches. Electron spin resonance analyses revealed that crocidolite and amosite containing high amounts of iron, but not chrysotile, catalyzed hydroxyl radical generation in the presence of H2O2, which was enhanced by an iron chelator, nitrilotriacetic acid, and suppressed by desferal. Natural iron chelators, such as citrate, adenosine 5′-triphosphate and guanosine 5′-triphosphate, did not inhibit this reaction. Second, we used time-lapse video microscopy to evaluate how cells cope with asbestos fibers. RAW264.7 cells, MeT-5 A and HeLa cells engulfed asbestos fibers, which reached not only cytoplasm but also the nucleus. Third, we utilized supercoiled plasmid DNA to evaluate the ability of each asbestos to induce DNA double strand breaks (DSB). Crocidolite and amosite, but not chrysotile, induced DNA DSB in the presence of iron chelators. We cloned the fragments to identify break sites. DSB occurred preferentially within repeat sequences and between two G:C sequences. Finally, i.p. administration of each asbestos to rats induced not only formation of nuclear 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine in the mesothelia, spleen, liver and kidney but also significant iron deposits in the spleen. Together with the established carcinogenicity of i.p. chrysotile, our data suggest that asbestos-associated catalytic iron, whether constitutional or induced by other mechanisms, plays an important role in asbestos-induced carcinogenesis and that chemoprevention may be possible through targeting the catalytic iron. © 2008 Japanese Cancer Association.

    There is an unmet clinical need for pharmacologic treatment for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Hepatocyte cell death is a hallmark of this highly prevalent chronic liver disease, but the dominant type of cell death remains uncertain. Here we report that ferroptosis, an iron-catalyzed mode of regulated cell death, contributes to MASLD. Unsupervised clustering in a cohort of biopsy-proven MASLD patients revealed a subgroup with hepatic ferroptosis signature and lower glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) levels. Likewise, a subgroup with reduced ferroptosis defenses was discerned in public transcriptomics datasets. Four weeks of choline-deficient L-amino acid-defined high-fat diet (CDAHFD) induced MASLD with ferroptosis in mice. Gpx4 overexpression did not affect steatohepatitis, instead CDAHFD protected from morbidity due to hepatocyte-specific Gpx4 knockout. The ferroptosis inhibitor UAMC-3203 attenuated steatosis and alanine aminotransferase in CDAHFD and a second model, i.e., the high-fat high-fructose diet (HFHFD). The effect of monounsaturated and saturated fatty acids supplementation on ferroptosis susceptibility was assessed in human HepG2 cells. Fat-laden HepG2 showed a drop in ferroptosis defenses, increased phosphatidylglycerol with two polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) lipid tails, and sustained ferroptosis sensitivity. In conclusion, this study identified hepatic ferroptosis as a detrimental factor in MASLD patients. Unexpectedly, non-PUFA supplementation to hepatocytes altered lipid bilayer composition to maintain ferroptosis sensitivity. Based on findings in in vivo models, ferroptosis inhibition represents a promising therapeutic target in MASLD. (Figure presented.)

    Ferroptosis is a pervasive non-apoptotic form of cell death highly relevant in various degenerative diseases and malignancies. The hallmark of ferroptosis is uncontrolled and overwhelming peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids contained in membrane phospholipids, which eventually leads to rupture of the plasma membrane. Ferroptosis is unique in that it is essentially a spontaneous, uncatalyzed chemical process based on perturbed iron and redox homeostasis contributing to the cell death process, but that it is nonetheless modulated by many metabolic nodes that impinge on the cells’ susceptibility to ferroptosis. Among the various nodes affecting ferroptosis sensitivity, several have emerged as promising candidates for pharmacological intervention, rendering ferroptosis-related proteins attractive targets for the treatment of numerous currently incurable diseases. Herein, the current members of a Germany-wide research consortium focusing on ferroptosis research, as well as key external experts in ferroptosis who have made seminal contributions to this rapidly growing and exciting field of research, have gathered to provide a comprehensive, state-of-the-art review on ferroptosis. Specific topics include: basic mechanisms, in vivo relevance, specialized methodologies, chemical and pharmacological tools, and the potential contribution of ferroptosis to disease etiopathology and progression. We hope that this article will not only provide established scientists and newcomers to the field with an overview of the multiple facets of ferroptosis, but also encourage additional efforts to characterize further molecular pathways modulating ferroptosis, with the ultimate goal to develop novel pharmacotherapies to tackle the various diseases associated with – or caused by – ferroptosis.

    Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of plasma-activated Ringer's lactate solution (PAL) on oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells and carcinogenic processes with a particular focus on iron and collagenous matrix formation. Materials and Methods: We used three OSCC cell lines, one keratinocyte cell line, and two fibroblast lines, and cell viability assays, immunoblotting, flow cytometry, and transmission electron microscopy were performed to evaluate the effect and type of cell death. The effect of PAL treatment on lysyl oxidase (LOX) expression was investigated in vitro and in vivo. Tamoxifen-inducible Mob1a/b double-knockout mice were used for the in vivo experiment. Results: PAL killed OSCC cells more effectively than the control nontumorous cells and suppressed cell migration and invasion. Ferroptosis occurred and the protein level of LOX was downregulated in cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, PAL improved the survival rate of mice and suppressed collagenous matrix formation. Conclusions: We demonstrated that PAL specifically kills OSCC cells and that ferroptosis occurs in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, PAL can prevent carcinogenesis and improve the survival rate of oral cancer, especially tongue cancer, by changing collagenous matrix formation via LOX suppression.

    The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is increasing owing to the elderly population. Here, we investigated the effects of heat-treated Enterococcus faecalis (FK-23) and lysozyme-treated FK-23 (LFK) on the progression of CKD in rats. A CKD model was established using male Wistar rats by subjecting them to right nephrectomy (1K), followed by ischemia and reperfusion (IR). FK-23 or LFK was fed ad libitum as a mixed diet after right nephrectomy. Animals subjected to renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) showed increased plasma creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels. Furthermore, in the kidneys, collagen accumulation and α-smooth muscle actin, indicative of fibroblast activation and fibrosis-related gene and protein expression, increased 3 weeks after IRI. FK-23 and LFK suppressed the increase in the mRNA levels of some of these genes. The increase in oxidative stress markers, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, endothelial nitric oxide synthase, and nitrotyrosine in the kidney, as well as increased plasma uremic toxins after IRI, were also ameliorated by FK-23 and LFK. Metagenomic analysis of fecal samples revealed that gut microbial alteration caused by IRI was also ameliorated by LFK treatment. These results suggest that Enterococcus faecalis ingredients may improve CKD progression by suppressing oxidative stress and correcting the balance of the intestinal microflora.

    Macroautophagy/autophagy is a complex degradation process with a dual role in cell death that is influenced by the cell types that are involved and the stressors they are exposed to. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent oxidative form of cell death characterized by unrestricted lipid peroxidation in the context of heterogeneous and plastic mechanisms. Recent studies have shed light on the involvement of specific types of autophagy (e.g. ferritinophagy, lipophagy, and clockophagy) in initiating or executing ferroptotic cell death through the selective degradation of anti-injury proteins or organelles. Conversely, other forms of selective autophagy (e.g. reticulophagy and lysophagy) enhance the cellular defense against ferroptotic damage. Dysregulated autophagy-dependent ferroptosis has implications for a diverse range of pathological conditions. This review aims to present an updated definition of autophagy-dependent ferroptosis, discuss influential substrates and receptors, outline experimental methods, and propose guidelines for interpreting the results.

    Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are complex structures that transport various DNA, RNA, and protein. Recently, new EV secretion mechanisms have been identified through the iron regulatory system in mammalian cells. We revealed that ferroptosis increases EV secretion, which is named ferroptosis-dependent EVs (FedEVs). Here, we describe a step-by-step procedure to isolate GFP-expressing FedEVs for in vitro analysis. The FedEVs are further analyzed by imaging and flow cytometry analysis.

    Old animals display significant alterations in sleep–wake patterns such as increases in sleep fragmentation and sleep propensity. Here, we demonstrated that PR-domain containing protein 13 (Prdm13)+ neurons in the dorsomedial hypothalamus (DMH) are activated during sleep deprivation (SD) in young mice but not in old mice. Chemogenetic inhibition of Prdm13+ neurons in the DMH in young mice promotes increase in sleep attempts during SD, suggesting its involvement in sleep control. Furthermore, DMH-specific Prdm13-knockout (DMH-Prdm13-KO) mice recapitulated age-associated sleep alterations such as sleep fragmentation and increased sleep attempts during SD. These phenotypes were further exacerbated during aging, with increased adiposity and decreased physical activity, resulting in shortened lifespan. Dietary restriction (DR), a well-known anti-aging intervention in diverse organisms, ameliorated age-associated sleep fragmentation and increased sleep attempts during SD, whereas these effects of DR were abrogated in DMHPrdm13-KO mice. Moreover, overexpression of Prdm13 in the DMH ameliorated increased sleep attempts during SD in old mice. Therefore, maintaining Prdm13 signaling in the DMH might play an important role to control sleep–wake patterns during aging.

    Organoids are a three-dimensional (3D) culture system that simulate actual organs. Therefore, tumor organoids are expected to predict precise response to chemotherapy in patients. However, to date, few studies have studied the drug responses in organoids of malignant mesothelioma (MM). The poor prognosis of MM emphasizes the importance of establishing a protocol for generating MM-organoid for research and clinical use. Here, we established murine MM organoids from p53 +/- or wild-type C57BL/6 strain by intraperitoneal injection either with crocidolite or carbon nanotube. Established MM-organoids proliferated in Matrigel as spheroids. Subcutaneous injection assays revealed that the MM-organoids mimicked actual tissue architecture and maintained the original histological features of the primary MM. RNA sequencing and pathway analyses revealed that the significant expressional differences between the 2D- and 3D-culture systems were observed in receptor tyrosine kinases, including IGF1R and EGFR, glycosylation and cholesterol/steroid metabolism. MM-organoids exhibited a more sensitive response to cisplatin through stable plasma membrane localization of a major cisplatin transporter, copper transporter 1/Slc31A1 (Ctr1) in comparison to 2D-cultures, presumably through glycosylation and lipidation. The Matrigel culture system facilitated the localization of CTR1 on the plasma membrane, which simulated the original MMs and the subcutaneous xenografts. These results suggest that the newly developed protocol for MM-organoids is useful to study strategies to overcome chemotherapy resistance to cisplatin.

    Respiratory exposure to asbestos fibers has been associated with diffuse malignant mesothelioma (DMM) in humans. Despite advancements in the molecular analyses of human DMM and the development of animal models, the carcinogenic mechanisms of the disease remain unclear. There are basically three hypotheses regarding the pathogenesis of asbestos-induced DMM, which may be summarized as follows: (1) the “oxidative stress theory” is based on the fact that phagocytic cells that engulf asbestos fibers produce large amounts of free radicals due to their inability to digest the fibers, and epidemiological studies indicating that iron-containing asbestos fibers appear more carcinogenic; (2) the “chromosome tangling theory” postulates that asbestos fibers damage chromosomes when cells divide; and (3) the “theory of adsorption of many specific proteins as well as carcinogenic molecules” states that asbestos fibers in vivo concentrate proteins or chemicals including the components of cigarette smoke. Elucidation of the major mechanisms underlying DMM would be helpful for the development of novel strategies to prevent DMM induction in people who have already been exposed to asbestos

    Thioredoxin, encoded by Txn1, acts as a critical antioxidant in the defense against oxidative stress by regulating the dithiol/disulfide balance of interacting proteins. The role of thioredoxin in the central nervous system (CNS) is largely unknown. A phenotype-driven study of N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea-mutated rats with wild-running seizures revealed the importance of Txn1 mutations in CNS degeneration. Genetic mapping identified Txn1-F54L in the epileptic rats. The insulin-reducing activity of Txn1-F54L was approximately one-third of that of the wild-type (WT). Bilateral symmetrical vacuolar degeneration in the midbrain, mainly in the thalamus and the inferior colliculus, was observed in the Txn1-F54L rats. The lesions displayed neuronal and oligodendrocytic cell death. Neurons in Txn1-F54L rats showed morphological changes in the mitochondria. Vacuolar degeneration peaked at five weeks of age, and spontaneous repair began at seven weeks. The TUNEL assay showed that fibroblasts derived from homozygotes were susceptible to cell death under oxidative stress. In five-week-old WT rats, energy metabolism in the thalamus was significantly higher than that in the cerebral cortex. In conclusion, in juvenile rats, Txn1 seems to play an essential role in reducing oxidative stress in the midbrains with high energy metabolism.

    Diagnostic markers of malignant mesothelioma (MM) have been extensively investigated. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) markers, such as calretinin, have been used for pathologic diagnosis. However, more diagnostic markers are required to improve the specificity and sensitivity of pathologic diagnosis. This study proposed two proteins as diagnostic markers for epithelioid MM. One is RhoA, an MM mutation-susceptible locus-derived protein, and another is vigilin, a lung small cell carcinoma marker. IHC was performed using 93 MM (epithelioid, 71 cases; sarcomatoid, 13 cases; and biphasic, 9 cases), 64 lung adenocarcinoma (LAC), 60 lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSC), and 14 normal mesothelial (NM) tissues. The majority of epithelioid MM cases were positive for both RhoA and vigilin, whereas both IHCs showed lower stainability in biphasic and sarcomatoid MM. Besides, both IHCs showed significantly higher stainability for RhoA and vigilin in epithelioid MM than in LAC and LSC (p < 0.05). Chi-square tests showed that both RhoA and vigilin IHC positive rate in epithelioid MM was not significantly different from that of calretinin (p > 0.05). In the differential diagnosis of MM from lung cancer, the accuracy and specificity of RhoA, vigilin, and calretinin staining were almost equivalent. Further, H-score test showed that there was no significant difference between RhoA versus calretinin and vigilin versus calretinin in IHC positivity in epithelioid MM (p > 0.05). In conclusion, RhoA and vigilin may be candidates for immunohistochemical markers for epithelioid MM.

    Aims: Molecular hydrogen (H2) has attracted growing interest because of its implications in various diseases. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the remarkable effect of a small amount of H2 remain elusive. No knowledge has been available on the role of H2 in the etiology of pregnancy disorders or its direct influence on human immune cells. Since maternal immunity, T cells in particular, plays a critical role in pregnancy maintenance. We investigated the effects of H2 on T cells and its relation to preterm birth (PTB). Main methods: Exhaled H2 concentrations in pregnant women were measured and correlated with cytokine concentrations in maternal and umbilical cord blood. H2 was added to T cells collected from healthy donors, and differentiation and proliferation were examined. Energy metabolism was also examined. H2 was administered to mice and cytokine expression was compared. Key findings: Our prospective observational study revealed that maternal production of H2 is significantly lower in pregnant women with PTB, suggesting its potential as a biomarker for predicting PTB. We found that H2 has clear associations with several maternal cytokines, and acts as an immunomodulator by exerting mitochondrial function in human T cells. Moreover, in vivo administration of H2 to pregnant mice regulated inflammatory responses and reduced PTB caused by T cell activation, which further supports the notion that H2 may contribute to prolonged gestation through its immunomodulatory effect. Significance: Measuring maternal H2-production could be a potential clinical tool in the management of PTB, and H2 may have positive impact on pregnancy maintenance.

    Any independent life requires iron to survive. Whereas iron deficiency causes oxygen insufficiency, excess iron is a risk for cancer, generating a double-edged sword. Iron metabolism is strictly regulated via specific systems, including iron-responsive element (IRE)/iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) and the corresponding ubiquitin ligase FBXL5. Here we briefly reflect the history of bioiron research and describe major recent advancements. Ferroptosis, a newly coined Fe(II)-dependent regulated necrosis, is providing huge impact on science. Carcinogenesis is a process to acquire ferroptosis-resistance and ferroptosis is preferred in cancer therapy due to immunogenicity. Poly(rC)-binding proteins 1/2 (PCBP1/2) were identified as major cytosolic Fe(II) chaperone proteins. The mechanism how cells retrieve stored iron in ferritin cores was unraveled as ferritinophagy, a form of autophagy. Of note, ferroptosis may exploit ferritinophagy during the progression. Recently, we discovered that cellular ferritin secretion is through extracellular vesicles (EVs) escorted by CD63 under the regulation of IRE/IRP system. Furthermore, this process was abused in asbestos-induced mesothelial carcinogenesis. In summary, cellular iron metabolism is tightly regulated by multisystem organizations as surplus iron is shared through ferritin in EVs among neighbor and distant cells in need. However, various noxious stimuli dramatically promote cellular iron uptake/storage, which may result in ferroptosis.

    COVID-19 is pandemic since 2020 and further information is necessary on the risk factors associated with the infection of SARS-CoV-2. As an entry mechanism, SARS-CoV-2 uses angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) as receptor and transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) to activate fusion with host plasma membrane. Because dysgeusia is an early symptom of COVID-19, we here studied the expression of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 in the tongue and the associated tissues of mice and humans with immunohistochemistry and immunoblot analysis. ACE2 expression was low in the human tongue but was observed in the squamous epithelium, perineurium, arterial wall, salivary glands as well as taste buds. In contrast, mice showed high expression. In sharp contrast, TMPRSS2 expression was high in all the cells mentioned above in humans but relatively low in mice except for salivary glands. We then performed semiquantitation of immunohistochemistry data of human ACE2 and TMPRSS2 and analyzed for age, sex, alcohol intake, and smoking habit with logistic regression analysis. We found that alcohol intake and female gender were the significant risk factors for increasing TMPRSS2 expression. In conclusion, TMPRSS2 is an important factor to be considered regarding SARS-CoV-2 entry and amplification in the oral cavity, which is promoted through drinking habit.

    Non-thermal plasma (NTP) induces the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species, such as hydroxyl radicals (•OH), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), singlet oxygen, superoxide, ozone, and nitric oxide, at near-physiological temperatures. These molecules promote blood coagulation, wound healing, disinfection, and selective cancer cell death. Based on these evidences, clinical trials of NTP have been conducted for treating chronic wounds and head and neck cancers. Although clinical applications have progressed, the stoichiometric quantification of NTP-induced ROS remains unclear in the liquid phase in the presence of FeCl2 or FeCl3 in combination with biocompatible reducing agents, which may modulate the final biological effects of NTP. In this study, we employed electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy to quantify ROS using spin-trapping probe, 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO) and H2O2, using luminescent probe in the presence of FeCl2 or FeCl3. NTP-induced DMPO-OH levels were elevated 10–100 µM FeCl2 or 500 and 1000 µM FeCl3. NTP-induced DMPO-OH with 10 µM FeCl2 or FeCl3 was significantly scavenged by ascorbate, α-tocopherol, dithiothreitol, reduced glutathione, or oxidized glutathione, whereas dehydroascorbate was ineffective in 2 mM DMPO. NTP-induced H2O2 was significantly degraded by 100 µM FeCl2 and FeCl3 in an iron-dependent manner. Meanwhile, decomposition of H2O2 by catalase decayed DMPO-OH efficiently in the presence of iron, indicating iron causes DMPO-OH production and degradation simultaneously. These results suggest that NTP-induced DMPO-OH is generated by the H2O2-consuming, iron-dependent Fenton reaction and ferryl intermediates. The potential iron-mediated ROS production by NTP is also discussed to clarify the interaction between NTP-induced ROS and biomolecules.

    Germline-mutation in BRCA1 tumor suppressor gene is an established risk for carcinogenesis not only in females but also in males. Deficiency in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks is hypothesized as a responsible mechanism for carcinogenesis. However, supporting data is insufficient both in the mutation spectra of cancers in the patients with BRCA1 germline-mutation and in murine knockout/knock-in models of Brca1 haploinsufficiency. Furthermore, information on the driving force toward carcinogenesis in BRCA1 mutation carriers is lacking. Here we applied Fenton reaction-based renal carcinogenesis to a rat heterozygously knockout model of BRCA1 haploinsufficiency (mutant [MUT] model; L63X/+). Rat MUT model revealed significant promotion of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) induced by ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA). Array-based comparative genome hybridization of the RCCs identified significant increase in chromosomal amplification, syntenic to those in breast cancers of BRCA1 mutation carriers, including c-Myc, in comparison to those in the wild-type. Subacute-phase analysis of the kidney after repeated Fe-NTA treatment in the MUT model revealed dysregulated iron metabolism with mitochondrial malfunction assessed by expression microarray and electron microscopy, leading to renal tubular proliferation with iron overload. In conclusion, we for the first time demonstrate that biallelic wild-type BRCA1 provides more robust protection for mitochondrial metabolism under iron-catalyzed oxidative stress, preventing the emergence of neoplastic cells with chromosomal amplification. Our results suggest that oxidative stress via excess iron is a major driving force for carcinogenesis in BRCA1 haploinsufficiency, which can be a target for cancer prevention and therapeutics.

    Breast cancer is the most frequent malignancy in women worldwide. Basal-like breast cancer (BLBC) is the most aggressive form of this disease, and patients have a poor prognosis. Here, we present data suggesting that the Hippo-transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) pathway is a key driver of BLBC onset and progression. Deletion of Mob1a/b in mouse mammary luminal epithelium induced rapid and highly reproducible mammary tumorigenesis that was dependent on TAZ but not yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1). In situ early-stage BLBC-like malignancies developed in mutant animals by 2 wk of age, and invasive BLBC appeared by 4 wk. In a human estrogen receptor+ luminal breast cancer cell line, TAZ hyperactivation skewed the features of these luminal cells to the basal phenotype, consistent with the aberrant TAZ activation frequently observed in human precancerous BLBC lesions. TP53 mutation is rare in human precancerous BLBC but frequent in invasive BLBC. Addition of Trp53 deficiency to our Mob1a/b-deficient mouse model enhanced tumor grade and accelerated cancer progression. Our work justifies targeting the Hippo-TAZ pathway as a therapy for human BLBC, and our mouse model represents a powerful tool for evaluating candidate agents.

    Cellular senescence and cell competition are important tumor suppression mechanisms that restrain cells with oncogenic mutations at the initial stage of cancer development. However, the link between cellular senescence and cell competition remains unclear. Senescent cells accumulated during the in vivo aging process contribute toward age-related cancers via the development of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Here, we report that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), a SASP factor, inhibits apical extrusion and promotes basal protrusion of Ras-mutated cells in the cell competition assay. Additionally, cellular senescence induced by a high-fat diet promotes the survival of cells with oncogenic mutations, whereas crizotinib, an inhibitor of HGF signaling, provokes the removal of mutated cells from mouse livers and intestines. Our study provides evidence that cellular senescence inhibits cell competition-mediated elimination of oncogenic cells through HGF signaling, suggesting that it may lead to cancer incidence during aging.

    Smoke from conventional cigarettes (C-cigarettes) contains various reactive oxygen species and toxic chemicals, which potentially cause oxidative damage not only to airways but also to the whole body, leading eventually to diseases, including emphysema, advanced atherosclerosis, and cancer. Many heat-not-burn tobacco products (HTPs) have been commercialized recently in Japan to maintain the smoking population by advertising that HTPs are less toxic. However, there were few studies reported from neutral organizations whether HTPs are indeed less damaging. To evaluate the potential capacity of HTPs to induce oxidative stress, we here compared two different HTPs with two types of C-cigarettes, using human fibroblast IMR90SV cells and 5% aqueous extracts in 10-ml phosphate-buffered saline (50-ml smoke/10 s). HTPs exhibited significantly lower oxidative toxicity in comparison to C-cigarettes. Whereas C-cigarettes induced ferroptosis in fibroblasts, the effects of HTPs were significantly reduced by measuring the levels of peroxides, pro-inflammatory cytokine expression, autophagy, catalytic Fe(II) and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine. Notably, major portions of C-cigarettes-induced pathogenic responses were inhibited by catalase. However, HTPs still induced p62 autophagy-adaptor at 5%-dilution and caused lethal effects to fibroblasts with undiluted solution. In conclusion, HTPs smoke per se can be toxic despite less toxicity in comparison to C-cigarettes, which warrants further investigation.

    Multiple roles of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and their consequences for health and disease are emerging throughout biological sciences. This development has led researchers unfamiliar with the complexities of ROS and their reactions to employ commercial kits and probes to measure ROS and oxidative damage inappropriately, treating ROS (a generic abbreviation) as if it were a discrete molecular entity. Unfortunately, the application and interpretation of these measurements are fraught with challenges and limitations. This can lead to misleading claims entering the literature and impeding progress, despite a well-established body of knowledge on how best to assess individual ROS, their reactions, role as signalling molecules and the oxidative damage that they can cause. In this consensus statement we illuminate problems that can arise with many commonly used approaches for measurement of ROS and oxidative damage, and propose guidelines for best practice. We hope that these strategies will be useful to those who find their research requiring assessment of ROS, oxidative damage and redox signalling in cells and in vivo.

    Ringer's lactate solution was irradiated with non-equilibrium plasma under airtight conditions. The plasma-activated lactate (PAL) was produced with argon, oxygen, and nitrogen gases following purging of Ar. Cytotoxicity could be controlled by diluting PAL, and a killing effect was selectively obtained on cancer cells compared to normal cells for Ar+O2+N2 PALs. Nonetheless, cytotoxicity was partly reproduced by similar concentrations of H2O2 and NO2- in the PALs. The organics produced by plasma irradiation to lactate were investigated using nuclear magnetic resonance, and the generation of methyl amino species was confirmed.

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is still increasing worldwide. The pathogenesis depends on asbestos-induced iron accumulation, which eventually leads to ferroptosis-resistance of mesothelial cells via somatic mutations. Poly (rC)-binding proteins 1 and 2 (PCBP1/2) are recently recognized cytosolic Fe(II) chaperones. Here we studied the role of PCBP1/2 in rat/human mesothelial and MM cells as well as rat/human MM specimens. Normal peritoneal mesothelial cells in rats exhibited PCBP1 but not PCBP2 immunopositivity whereas primary/immortalized mesothelial cells showed PCBP1/2 immunopositivity. Rat MM specimens induced by intraperitoneal injection of chrysotile, including in situ lesion, revealed PCBP1/2 immunopositivity (90% for both) in the nucleus and cytoplasm with a tendency of higher expression in epithelioid subtype. Knockdown of PCBP2 but not PCBP1 significantly decreased both TfR1 and FTH expression in MM cells with inhibition of proliferation, indicating stagnation of intracellular iron transport. Erastin, a cysteine-deprivation type ferroptosis inducer, decreased the expression of both PCBP1/2 in MM cells. Furthermore, PCBP2 knockdown significantly increased the sensitivity of MM cells to erastin-induced ferroptosis with increased catalytic Fe(II). In conclusion, PCBP2 works for ferroptosis-resistance not only during mesothelial carcinogenesis but also in MM, which warrants further investigation as a novel therapeutic target.

    Tertiary lymphoid tissues (TLTs) facilitate local T- and B-cell interactions in chronically inflamed organs. However, the cells and molecular pathways that govern TLT formation are poorly defined. Here we identify TNF superfamily CD153-CD30 signaling between two unique age-dependent lymphocyte subpopulations, CD153⁺PD-1⁺CD4⁺ senescence-associated T (SAT) cells and CD30+T-bet+ age-associated B cells (ABCs), as a driver for TLT expansion. SAT cells, which produced ABC-inducing factors IL21 and IFNγ, and ABCs progressively accumulated within TLTs in aged kidneys after injury. Notably, in kidney injury models, CD153 or CD30 deficiency impaired functional SAT cell induction, which resulted in reduced ABC numbers and attenuated TLT formation with improved inflammation, fibrosis and renal function. Attenuated TLT formation after transplantation of CD153-deficient bone marrow further supported the importance of CD153 in immune cells. Clonal analysis revealed that SAT cells and ABCs in the kidneys arose from both local differentiation and recruitment from the spleen. In the synovium of aged rheumatoid arthritis patients, T peripheral helper/T follicular helper cells and ABCs also expressed CD153 and CD30, respectively. Together, our data reveal a previously unappreciated function of CD153-CD30 signaling in TLT formation and propose targeting CD153-CD30 signaling pathway as a therapeutic target for slowing kidney disease progression.

    Cancer susceptibility is a critical factor in the understanding of carcinogenesis. Intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of an iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), produces hydroxyl radicals via Fenton reaction to induce ferroptosis in renal proximal tubules. Rats or mice subjected to repeated i.p. injections of Fe-NTA develop renal cell carcinoma (RCC). To elucidate the molecular mechanisms that cause susceptibility to renal carcinogenesis, we first established an inter-strain difference in the susceptibility to Fe-NTA-induced renal carcinogenesis in mice. Based on a previous observation of a low incidence of RCC with this model in C57BL/6J strain mice, we investigated A/J strain mice here, which demonstrated significantly higher susceptibility to Fe-NTA-induced renal carcinogenesis. Homozygous deletion of the Cdkn2a/2b tumor suppressor locus was detected for the first time in A/J strain mice. Focusing on ferroptosis and iron metabolism, we explored the mechanisms involved that lead to the difference in RCC development. We compared the protective responses in the kidney of A/J and C57BL/6J strains after Fe-NTA treatment. After 3-week Fe-NTA treatment, A/J mice maintained higher levels of expression of glutathione peroxidase 4 and xCT (SLC7A11), leading to a lower level of lipid peroxidation. Simultaneously, A/J mice had decreased expression of transferrin receptor and increased expression of ferritin to greater degrees than C57BL/6 mice. After a single Fe-NTA injection, higher levels of oxidative cell damage and cytosolic catalytic Fe(II) were observed in C57BL/6J mice, accompanied by a greater increase in lipocalin-2. Lipocalin-2 deficiency significantly decreased oxidative renal damage. Our results suggest that a genetic trait favoring ferroptosis resistance contributes to high susceptibility to Fe-NTA-induced RCC in A/J strain.

    Non-thermal plasma (NTP) devices have been explored for medical applications. NTP devices discharge electrons, positive ions, ultraviolet (UV), reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS), such as the hydroxyl radical (•OH), singlet oxygen (1O2), superoxide (O2•-), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), ozone, and nitric oxide, at near-physiological temperature. At preclinical stages or in human clinical trials, NTP promotes blood coagulation, eradication of bacterial, viral, and biofilm-related infections, wound healing, and cancer cell death. Here, we observed that ferric, vanadium, and gold(III) ions significantly elevated lipid peroxidation, which was measured by 2-thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) in combination with NTP exposure. Using 3,3,5,5-tetramethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (M4PO) as a spin probe in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), we observed that tetrachloroaurate (III) yielded an M4PO-X spin adduct. Tetrachloroaurate-induced oxidation was attenuated efficiently by reduced (GSH) and oxidized glutathione (GSSG), while glycine (Gly), and L-glutamate (Glu), components of GSH, were ineffective. Furthermore, GSH and GSSG efficiently suppressed tetrachloroaurate-induced lipid peroxidation, while Gly and Glu were ineffective in suppressing TBARS elevation. These results indicate that tetrachloroaurate-induced oxidation is attenuated by GSH as well as GSSG. Further studies are warranted to elucidate the redox reactions between metal ions and biomolecules to advance the clinical application of NTP.

    Ethanol production by budding yeast was compared between direct and indirect plasma irradiation. We observed enhancement of ethanol production and cell growth not by indirect plasma irradiation but by direct plasma irradiation. Glucose consumption was increased in budding yeast by direct plasma irradiation. Extracellular flux analysis revealed that glycolytic activity in the budding yeast was elevated by direct plasma irradiation. These results suggest that direct plasma irradiation enhances ethanol production in budding yeast by elevating the glycolytic activity.

    Asbestos-associated diseases remain a social burden worldwide. Our previous studies identified asbestos-induced iron-rich milieu for mesothelial cells with ceaseless macrophage ferroptosis. However, molecular mechanisms how this mutagenic milieu influences mesothelial cells have not been elucidated yet. Here, we propose a novel mechanism that extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate asbestos-associated mutagenic factors to mesothelial cells. In a mice model of intraperitoneal crocidolite injection, mutagenic milieu highly expressed CD63, an exosomal marker. We then used a GFP-CD63 labeled THP-1 macrophage model exposed to crocidolite/iron, which generated EVs under ferroptotic process. We observed that MeT-5A mesothelial cells can receive and internalize these EVs. Furthermore, we comprehensively analyzed the ferroptosis-dependent EVs (FedEVs) for transported proteins and identified ferritin heavy/light chains as major components. Therefore, we inferred that FedEVs transport iron from ferroptotic macrophages to mesothelial cells. RNA sequencing revealed that the mesothelial cells receiving higher amounts of the FedEVs were mitotic, especially at the S and G2/M phases, by the use of Fucci mesothelial cells. Nuclear 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine and γ-H2AX were significantly increased in the recipient mesothelial cells after exposure to FedEVs. Collectively, we here demonstrate a novel mechanism that FedEVs act as a key mutagenic mediator by transporting iron, which contribute to asbestos-induced mesothelial carcinogenesis.

    Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell necrosis, as a consequence of Fe(II)-dependent lipid peroxidation. Although ferroptosis has been linked to cancer cell death, neurodegeneration and reperfusion injury, physiological roles of ferroptosis have not been elucidated to date mostly due to the lack of appropriate methodologies. Here, we show that 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified proteins detected by a HNEJ-1 mouse monoclonal antibody is a robust immunohistochemical technology to locate ferroptosis in tissues in combination with morphological nuclear information, based on various models of ferroptosis, including erastin-induced cysteine-deprivation, conditional Gpx4 knockout and Fe(II)-dependent renal tubular injury, as well as other types of regulated cell death. Specificity of HNEJ-1 with ferroptosis was endorsed by non-selective identification of HNE-modified proteins in an Fe(II)-dependent renal tubular injury model. We further comprehensively searched for signs of ferroptosis in different developmental stages of Fischer-344 rats from E9.5–2.5 years of age. We observed that there was a significant age-dependent increase in ferroptosis in the kidney, spleen, liver, ovary, uterus, cerebellum and bone marrow, which was accompanied by iron accumulation. Not only phagocytic cells but also parenchymal cells were affected. Epidermal ferroptosis in ageing SAMP8 mice was significantly promoted by high-fat or carbohydrate-restricted diets. During embryogenesis of Fischer-344 rats, we found ferroptosis in nucleated erythrocytes at E13.5, which disappeared in enucleated erythrocytes at E18.5. Administration of a ferroptosis inhibitor, liproxstatin-1, significantly delayed erythrocyte enucleation. Therefore, our results demonstrate for the first time the involvement of ferroptosis in physiological processes, such as embryonic erythropoiesis and aging, suggesting the evolutionally acquired mechanism and the inevitable side effects, respectively.

    Extracellular vesicles (EVs) transfer functional molecules between cells. CD63 is a widely recognized EV marker that contributes to EV secretion from cells. However, the regulation of its expression remains largely unknown. Ferritin is a cellular iron storage protein that can also be secreted by the exosome pathway, and serum ferritin levels classically reflect body iron stores. Iron metabolism–associated proteins such as ferritin are intricately regulated by cellular iron levels via the iron responsive element-iron regulatory protein (IRE-IRP) system. Herein, we present a novel mechanism demonstrating that the expression of the EV-associated protein CD63 is under the regulation of the IRE-IRP system. We discovered a canonical IRE in the 5′ untranslated region of CD63 messenger RNA that is responsible for regulating its expression in response to increased iron. Cellular iron loading caused a marked increase in CD63 expression and the secretion of CD63+ EVs from cells, which were shown to contain ferritin-H and ferritin-L. Our results demonstrate that under iron loading, intracellular ferritin is transferred via nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4) to CD63+ EVs that are then secreted. Such iron-regulated secretion of the major iron storage protein ferritin via CD63+ EVs, is significant for understanding the local cell-to-cell exchange of ferritin and iron.

    Congenital malformations cause life-threatening diseases in pediatrics, yet the molecular mechanism of organogenesis is poorly understood. Here we show that Dyrk2-deficient mice display congenital malformations in multiple organs. Transcriptome analysis reveals molecular pathology of Dyrk2-deficient mice, particularly with respect to Foxf1 reduction. Mutant pups exhibit sudden death soon after birth due to respiratory failure. Detailed analyses of primordial lungs at the early developmental stage demonstrate that Dyrk2 deficiency leads to altered airway branching and insufficient alveolar development. Furthermore, the Foxf1 expression gradient in mutant lung mesenchyme is disrupted, reducing Foxf1 target genes, which are necessary for proper airway and alveolar development. In ex vivo lung culture system, we rescue the expression of Foxf1 and its target genes in Dyrk2-deficient lung by restoring Shh signaling activity. Taken together, we demonstrate that Dyrk2 is essential for embryogenesis and its disruption results in congenital malformation.

    <p>Biopersistent nanofibers with specified physical dimension are unexpected human carcinogens whether they are natural or synthetic. Asbestos, a natural fibrous mineral, is classified as a definite human carcinogen (IARC Group 1) to cause malignant mesothelioma (MM) and lung cancer. Multi-walled carbon nanotube of 50 nm-diameter was defined in 2014 as a possible carcinogen (IARC Group 2B) toward MM, fortunately with no authorized patients thus far. Carcinogenic mechanism of asbestos has been a mystery for a long time. It is now recognized that asbestos goes through lung parenchyma by collecting hemoglobin-derived iron to reach pleural cavity, which takes several decades. Iron-loaded asbestos can induce oxidative damage directly to mesothelial cells, carcinogenesis-target cells lining somatic cavities. Recently, it was clarified that surrounding stromal environment are as important for mesothelial carcinogenesis. The novel concept here is ceaseless ferroptosis of macrophages, which forms a Fe(II)-dependent stromal mutagenic milieu indirectly for mesothelial cells and indeed is a revised understanding of frustrated phagocytosis. Deposition of foreign materials eventually causes iron accumulation <i>in situ</i> due to the innate characteristic of preserving iron inside cells. Nanofiber-induced carcinogenesis may be involved in other human carcinogenesis, including ovarian cancer. Alternatively, iron excess can be an optimal target of cancer prevention and cancer treatment. </p>

    Nonequilibrium atmospheric pressure plasma has enabled a variety of new applications in medicine, agriculture, and other industries. It is particularly noteworthy that plasma itself and/or plasma-activated culture medium have been shown to preferentially kill various cancer cells. We have previously developed a plasma-activated Ringer's lactate solution (PAL) for use as a new cancer treatment. In this study, behaviors of extracellular and intracellular reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in the cellular respiratory system of PAL-treated HeLa cells were investigated using an extracellular flux analyzer and a probe to measure mitochondrial membrane potential. In PAL-treated HeLa cells, extracellular hydrogen peroxide in PAL was found to be responsible for the induction of intracellular hydrogen peroxide and apoptosis, while other components in PAL are responsible for the induction of non-H2O2 intracellular ROS and non-apoptotic cell death, which should be clarified by further experiments. We believe that these are long-lived species derived from plasma-activated lactates. Furthermore, we found that the plasma-activated lactates inhibited glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, but not the electron transport chain in HeLa cells. These results suggest that PAL induces multiple modes of cell death, including apoptosis through hydrogen peroxide, and non-apoptotic cell death associated with the impairment of mitochondrial functions (glycolysis and TCA cycle). These findings shed light on the novel mechanism underlying plasma-activated lactate-induced cell death.

    Low-temperature plasma is being widely used in the various fields of life science, such as medicine and agriculture. Plasma-activated solutions have been proposed as potential cancer therapeutic reagents. We previously reported that plasma-activated Ringer’s lactate solution exhibited selective cancer-killing effects, and that the plasma-treated L-sodium lactate in the solution was an anti-tumor factor; however, the components that are generated through the interactions between plasma and L-sodium lactate and the components responsible for the selective killing of cancer cells remain unidentified. In this study, we quantified several major chemical products, such as pyruvate, formate, and acetate, in plasma-activated L-sodium lactate solution by nuclear magnetic resonance analysis. We further identified novel chemical products, such as glyoxylate and 2,3-dimethyltartrate, in the solution by direct infusion-electrospray ionization with tandem mass spectrometry analysis. We found that 2,3-dimethyltartrate exhibited cytotoxic effects in glioblastoma cells, but not in normal astrocytes. These findings shed light on the identities of the components that are responsible for the selective cytotoxic effect of plasma-activated solutions on cancer cells, and provide useful data for the potential development of cancer treatments using plasma-activated L-sodium lactate solution.

    Cellular senescence causes a dramatic alteration of chromatin organization and changes the gene expression profile of proinflammatory factors, thereby contributing to various age-related pathologies through the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Chromatin organization and global gene expression are maintained by the CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF); however, the molecular mechanism underlying CTCF regulation and its association with SASP gene expression remains unclear. We discovered that noncoding RNA (ncRNA) derived from normally silenced pericentromeric repetitive sequences directly impairs the DNA binding of CTCF. This CTCF disturbance increases the accessibility of chromatin and activates the transcription of SASP-like inflammatory genes, promoting malignant transformation. Notably, pericentromeric ncRNA was transferred into surrounding cells via small extracellular vesicles acting as a tumorigenic SASP factor. Because CTCF blocks the expression of pericentromeric ncRNA in young cells, the down-regulation of CTCF during cellular senescence triggers the up-regulation of this ncRNA and SASP-related inflammatory gene expression. In this study, we show that pericentromeric ncRNA provokes chromosomal alteration by inhibiting CTCF, leading to a SASP-like inflammatory response in a cell-autonomous and non-cell-autonomous manner and thus may contribute to the risk of tumorigenesis during aging.

    Oxidative stress plays a pathological role in pulmonary hypoplasia and pulmonary hypertension in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). This study investigated the effect of molecular hydrogen (H2), an antioxidant, on CDH pathology induced by nitrofen. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups: control, CDH, and CDH + hydrogen-rich water (HW). Pregnant dams of CDH + HW pups were orally administered HW from embryonic day 10 until parturition. Gasometric evaluation and histological, immunohistochemical, and real-time polymerase chain re-action analyses were performed. Gasometric results (pH, pO2, and pCO2 levels) were better in the CDH + HW group than in the CDH group. The CDH + HW group showed amelioration of alveo-larization and pulmonary artery remodeling compared with the CDH group. Oxidative stress (8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine-positive-cell score) in the pulmonary arteries and mRNA levels of pro-tein-containing pulmonary surfactant that protects against pulmonary collapse (surfactant protein A) were significantly attenuated in the CDH + HW group compared with the CDH group. Overall, prenatal H2 administration improved respiratory function by attenuating lung morphology and pulmonary artery thickening in CDH rat models. Thus, H2 administration in pregnant women with diagnosed fetal CDH might be a novel antenatal intervention strategy to reduce newborn mortality due to CDH.

    Recent developments in electronics have enabled the medical applications of non-thermal plasma (NTP), which elicits reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS), such as hydroxyl radical (●OH), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), singlet oxygen (1O2), superoxide (O2●-), ozone, and nitric oxide at near-physiological temperatures. In preclinical studies or human clinical trials, NTP promotes blood coagulation, eradication of bacterial, viral and biofilm-related infections, wound healing, and cancer cell death. To elucidate the solution-phase biological effects of NTP in the presence of biocompatible reducing agents, we employed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy to quantify ●OH using a spin-trapping probe, 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO); 1O2 using a fluorescent probe; and O2●- and H2O2 using luminescent probes in the presence of thiols or tempol. NTP-induced ●OH was significantly scavenged by dithiothreitol (DTT), reduced glutathione (GSH), and oxidized glutathione (GSSG) in 2 or 5 mM DMPO. NTP-induced O2●- was significantly scavenged by 10 μM DTT and GSH, while 1O2 was not efficiently scavenged by these compounds. GSSG degraded H2O2 more effectively than GSH and DTT, suggesting that the disulfide bonds reacted with H2O2. In the presence of 1–50 mM DMPO, NTP-induced H2O2 quantities were unchanged. The inhibitory effect of tempol concentration (50 and 100 μM) on H2O2 production was observed in 1 and 10 mM DMPO, whereas it became ineffective in 50 mM DMPO. Furthermore, DMPO-OH did not interact with tempol. These results suggest that DMPO and tempol react competitively with O2●-. Further studies are warranted to elucidate the interaction between NTP-induced ROS and biomolecules.

    Non-thermal plasma (NTP), an engineered technology to generate reactive species, induces ferroptosis and/or apoptosis specifically in various-type cancer cells. NTP-activated Ringer's lactate (PAL) is another modality for cancer therapy at preclinical stage. Here we found that PAL induces selective ferroptosis of malignant mesothelioma (MM) cells, where non-targeted metabolome screening identified upregulated citrulline-nitric oxide (.NO) cycle as a PAL target .NO probe detected biphasic peaks transiently at PAL exposure with time-dependent increase, which was responsible for inducible .NO synthase (iNOS) overexpression through NF-κB activation. .NO and lipid peroxidation occupied lysosomes as a major compartment with increased TFEB expression. Not only ferrostatin-1 but inhibitors for .NO and/or iNOS could suppress this ferroptosis. PAL-induced ferroptosis accompanied autophagic process in the early phase, as demonstrated by an increase in essential amino acids, LC3B-II, p62 and LAMP1, transforming into the later phase with boosted lipid peroxidation. Therefore, .NO-mediated lysosomal impairment is central in PAL-induced ferroptosis.

    Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy. The major cause of EOC’s lethality is that intraperitoneal recurrence occurs with high frequency due to occult metastasis. We had demonstrated that plasma-activated medium (PAM) exerts a metastasis-inhibitory effect on ovarian cancer in vitro and in vivo. Here we investigated how PAM inhibits intraperitoneal metastasis. We studied PAM’s inhibition of micro-dissemination onto the omentum by performing in vivo imaging in combination with a sequential histological analysis. The results revealed that PAM induced macrophage infiltration into the disseminated lesion. The iNOS-positive signal was co-localized at the macrophages in the existing lesion, indicating that PAM might induce M1-type macrophages. This may be another mechanism of the antitumor effect through a PAM-evoked immune response. Intraperitoneal lavage with plasma-activated lactate Ringer’s solution (PAL) significantly improved the overall survival rate in an ovarian cancer mouse model. Our results demonstrated the efficiency and practicality of aqueous plasma for clinical applications.

    Needle-like multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are engulfed by macrophages, which cause inflammation and asbestosis-like pathogenesis in rodents; however, how macrophages recognize MWCNTs remains unclear. Omori et al. demonstrate that Tim4 recognizes MWCNTs through aromatic-aromatic interactions and mediates macrophage phagocytosis leading to granulomas.

    In 2008, we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, this topic has received increasing attention, and many scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Thus, it is important to formulate on a regular basis updated guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Despite numerous reviews, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to evaluate autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes. Here, we present a set of guidelines for investigators to select and interpret methods to examine autophagy and related processes, and for reviewers to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of reports that are focused on these processes. These guidelines are not meant to be a dogmatic set of rules, because the appropriateness of any assay largely depends on the question being asked and the system being used. Moreover, no individual assay is perfect for every situation, calling for the use of multiple techniques to properly monitor autophagy in each experimental setting. Finally, several core components of the autophagy machinery have been implicated in distinct autophagic processes (canonical and noncanonical autophagy), implying that genetic approaches to block autophagy should rely on targeting two or more autophagy-related genes that ideally participate in distinct steps of the pathway. Along similar lines, because multiple proteins involved in autophagy also regulate other cellular pathways including apoptosis, not all of them can be used as a specific marker for bona fide autophagic responses. Here, we critically discuss current methods of assessing autophagy and the information they can, or cannot, provide. Our ultimate goal is to encourage intellectual and technical innovation in the field.

    Low-temperature plasma (LTP) is a partially ionized gas that contains elec-trons, ions, radicals, light, etc. Recently, the bio-medical application of LTP has become a hot topic in plasma science and biological science. Cancer treatment with plasma is the most challenging topic in plasma bio-medical applications. Many in vitro and in vivo ex-periments have been conducted to investigate the anti-tumor effects of LTP. Extracellular reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) in plasma-activated solutions are key factors for the anti-tumor effects, and amino acid modifications by LTP may affect cellular responses. Intracellular RONS are also key factors for the anti-tumor effects. Various signaling pathways, such as p53 signaling pathways, survival and proliferation signaling pathways, and oxidative stress-dependent signaling pathways are activated by LTP.

    <p>カーボンナノチューブ(CNTs)は次世代ナノ材料として期待されているものの、その毒性の懸念から国際化学物質事務局ChemSecがCNTsをSIN (Substitute It Now)リストに加えたため、今後のCNTsの使用継続について国際的に大きく議論されている。多層CNTs(MWCNTs)は生体内に入ると主にマクロファージに取り込まれ、そのマクロファージ細胞死およびNLRP3インフラマソーム活性化によるIL-1β分泌が毒性発現に関与すると考えられているが、マクロファージがどのように細胞表面上でMWCNTsを認識するのかはよく分かっていない。本研究で我々は貪食受容体スクリーニングによりT cell immunoglobulin mucin 4(Tim4)およびTim1がMWCNTsを認識することを見出した。CRISPR/Cas9システムによって作製した<i>Tim4<sup>-/- </sup>Tim1<sup>-/-</sup> </i>マウスや<i>Tim4<sup>-/-</sup></i> マウス由来腹腔マクロファージを用いた解析から、Tim4はマクロファージによるMWCNTsの貪食、およびその結果起きるIL-1β分泌に関与することが判明した。さらに<i>Tim4<sup>-/- </sup></i>マウス、あるいは抗Tim4モノクローナル抗体を全投与した野生型マウスにおいて、MWCNTs腹腔投与による横隔膜中皮細胞層の肉芽種形成が有意に抑制されていたことから、Tim4はMWCNTs曝露によるin vivo炎症応答に関与することが示唆された。一方、Tim1はヒト肺細胞株によるMWCNTsの認識に関与することが判明した。以上の結果は、Tim4およびTim1はMWCNTs受容体として機能することを示す。</p>

    Inosine triphosphate pyrophosphatase (ITPA) hydrolyzes inosine triphosphate (ITP) and other deaminated purine nucleotides to the corresponding nucleoside monophosphates. In humans, ITPA deficiency causes severe encephalopathy with epileptic seizure, microcephaly, and developmental retardation. In this study, we established neural stem cell–specific Itpa–conditional KO mice (ItpacKO mice) to clarify the effects of ITPA deficiency on the neural system. The Itpa-cKO mice showed growth retardation and died within 3 weeks of birth. We did not observe any microcephaly in the Itpa-cKO mice, although the female Itpa-cKO mice did show adrenal hypoplasia. The Itpa-cKO mice showed limb-clasping upon tail suspension and spontaneous and/or audiogenic seizure. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings from entorhinal cortex neurons in brain slices revealed a depolarized resting membrane potential, increased firing, and frequent spontaneous miniature excitatory postsynaptic current and miniature inhibitory postsynaptic current in the Itpa-cKO mice compared with ITPA-proficient controls. Accumulated ITP or its metabolites, such as cyclic inosine monophosphates, or RNA containing inosines may cause membrane depolarization and hyperexcitability in neurons and induce the phenotype of ITPA-deficient mice, including seizure.

    Evolution from the first life on earth to humans took ~3.8 billion years. During the time there have been countless struggles among the species. Mycobacterium tuberculosis was the last major uncontrollable species against the human public health worldwide. After the victory with antibiotics, cancer has become the leading cause of death since 1981 in Japan. Considering that life inevitably depends on ceaseless electron transfers through iron and oxygen, we believe that carcinogenesis is intrinsically unavoidable side effects of using iron and oxygen. Many animal models unequivocally revealed that excess iron is a risk for carcinogenesis. This is supported by a variety of human epidemiological data on cancer risk and prognosis. Cancer is basically a disease of the genome with persistently activated oncogenes and inactivated tumor suppressor genes through which iron addiction with ferroptosis-resistance is maintained. Engineering has made a great advance in the past 50 years. In particular, nanotechnology is distinct in that the size of the engineered molecules is similar to that of our biomolecules. While some nano-molecules are found carcinogenic, there are principles to avoid such carcinogenicity with a smart possibility to use nano-molecules to specifically kill cancer cells. Non-thermal plasma is another modality to fight against cancer.

    <p><b>[Introduction]</b> Drug-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent cause of adverse drug reaction. Serum creatinine (CRE) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) are widely used as standard biomarkers for kidney injury; however, the sensitivity and specificity are considered to be low. In recent years, circulating microRNA (miRNAs) have been attracting considerable attention as novel biomarkers for organ injury, but there are currently no established miRNA biomarkers for drug-induced AKI. The present study aimed to identify plasma miRNAs that may enable early and specific detection of drug-induced tubular and glomerular injury through next-generation sequencing analysis. <b>[Methods]</b> Six-week old male Sprague-Dawley rats were administered cisplatin and gentamicin to induce tubular injury. To create glomerular injury models, puromycin and doxorubicin were administered, and these models were always accompanied by tubular damage. Small RNA-sequencing was performed to analyze time-dependent changes in the plasma miRNA profiles. <b>[Results and Discussion]</b> In the differential analysis, miR-3473 was specifically up-regulated in the glomerular injury models. miR-143-3p and miR-122-5p were commonly down-regulated in all models, and the changes were earlier than the traditional biomarkers, such as plasma CRE and BUN. These data indicated that changes in the specific miRNAs in plasma may enable the early and sensitive detection of tubular and glomerular injuries. The present study suggests the potential utility of plasma miRNAs in the early and type-specific detection of drug-induced AKI.</p>

    Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted much business interest in industrial applications due to their high electrical and heat conductivities while being both durable and versatile. However, multiwall CNTs (MWCNTs) of ~ 50 nm diameter (NT50) have been shown to cause mesothelioma in rodents after direct exposure to mesothelial cells, and thus were classified as a Group 2B carcinogen to humans, which requires considerable regulations for use. In contrast, tangled MWCNTs of ~ 15 nm diameter (NTtngl) are not carcinogenic to rats, indicating that the physical dimension linked with mesothelial cellular uptake is an important factor for human environmental risk. In the present study, hypothesizing that dustability is another distinct risk factor, for the first time, we evaluated the toxicity of CNT granules (Durobeads) that were generated with a polymer coating to mesothelial cells. Polymer coating induced prominent agglomeration and significantly suppressed the dustability of CNTs in a dose-dependent manner, with a 10% polymer coating resulting in 730 times less dustability. These CNT granules revealed significantly lower mesothelial uptake and cytotoxicity in comparison to NT50 in in vitro assays. Similarly, in in vivo analyses, CNT granules induced limited peritoneal inflammation 4 weeks after intraperitoneal injection, whereas NT50 caused severe fibrosing inflammation. Previously, we demonstrated that the severity of inflammation by intraperitoneal injection in the subacute studies are in agreement with the mesothelial carcinogenicity by CNTs. Therefore, we suggest that adding a polymer coating to CNTs provides another smart strategy for the safe use of CNTs.

    Non-enzymatic peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) results in the formation of various α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, of which 4-hydroxyalkenals are abundant. The propensity of n-6 PUFA, such as linoleic acid, γ-linolenic acid and arachidonic acid, to undergo radical-induced peroxidation and generate 4-hydroxy-2E-nonenal (4-HNE) has been widely demonstrated. The ability of the latter to form covalent adducts with macromolecules and modify cellular functions has been linked to numerous pathological processes. Concomitantly, evidence has accumulated on specific signaling properties of low concentrations of 4-HNE that may induce hormetic and protective responses to peroxidation stress in cells. It has long been known that peroxidation of PUFA, and particularly arachidonic acid, also give rise to 4-hydroxy-2E,6Z-dodecadienal (4-HDDE), which is more chemically reactive than 4-HNE. Few studies on 4-HDDE revealed its ability to avidly interact covalently with electronegative moieties in macromolecules and to its ability to selectively activate the transcriptional regulator Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor (PPAR)-β/δ. The research on 4-HDDE has been impeded due to the lack of available pure 4-HDDE and antibodies that recognize 4-HDDE-modified epitopes in proteins. The purpose of this study was to employ an established procedure to synthesize 4-HDDE and use it to create and characterize a monoclonal antibody against 4-HDDE-modified proteins and establish its application for ELISA and immunohistochemical analysis of cells and tissues and further expand lipid peroxidation research.

    The aim of the present study was to investigate long-term outcomes of the offspring in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced maternal immune activation (MIA) model and the effect of maternal molecular hydrogen (H2) administration. We have previously demonstrated in the MIA mouse model that maternal administration of H2 attenuates oxidative damage and neuroinflammation, including induced pro-inflammatory cytokines and microglial activation, in the fetal brain. Short-term memory, sociability and social novelty, and sensorimotor gating were evaluated using the Y-maze, three-chamber, and prepulse inhibition (PPI) tests, respectively, at postnatal 3 or 4 weeks. The number of neurons and oligodendrocytes was also analyzed at postnatal 5 weeks by immunohistochemical analysis. Offspring of the LPS-exposed dams showed deficits in short-term memory and social interaction, following neuronal and oligodendrocytic loss in the amygdala and cortex. Maternal H2 administration markedly attenuated these LPS-induced abnormalities. Moreover, we evaluated the effect of H2 on LPS-induced astrocytic activation, both in vivo and in vitro. The number of activated astrocytes with hypertrophic morphology was increased in LPS-exposed offspring, but decreased in the offspring of H2-administered dams. In primary cultured astrocytes, LPS-induced pro-inflammatory cytokines were attenuated by H2 administration. Overall, these findings indicate that maternal H2 administration exerts neuroprotective effects and ameliorates MIA-induced neurodevelopmental deficits of offspring later in life.

    p16 activation caused by oncogenic mutations may represent oncogene-induced senescence (OIS), a protective mechanism against oncogenic events. However, OIS can contribute to tumor development via tissue remodeling in some tumors. Erdheim–Chester disease (ECD), a rare non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis, is one such tumor. Its clinical and histological features vary, making it difficult to diagnose. Herein, we describe an autopsy of an ECD patient. The patient underwent radiological examinations, including 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), bone scintigraphy and CT. A biopsy from the lesion with the highest FDG accumulation confirmed the presence of foamy macrophages, a diagnostic clue for ECD. Based on this finding and the clinical features, ECD was diagnosed. However, the patient died from heart dysfunction. After the autopsy, each radiologically different site showed various histological findings regarding the morphology of macrophages, fibrosis, inflammation, and p16 expression. OIS-induced histological progression can cause certain changes observed in radiological images. In addition, in order to evaluate the increase in glucose metabolism, which can affect FDG accumulation, the expression of glucose transporter 1 and hexokinase II was also analyzed. Summarizing the radio-histological correlation can help further both the understanding and diagnosis of ECD.

    P-REX2a is a PTEN inhibitor that also activates Rac 1. No associations with P-REX2a and human endometrial cancers have been reported to date. In this study, we immunohistochemically analyzed 155 uterine endometrial malignancies for P-REX2a expression. The P-REX2a-positive tumors displayed worse prognosis independent of PTEN expression. Then, we transduced either P-REX2a expression vector or short hairpin RNAs targeting P-REX2a into 2 uterine endometrioid carcinoma cell lines, OMC-2 and JHUEM-14. Ectopic expression of P-REX2a led to increased cell proliferation only in the PTEN-expressing OMC-2 cells but did not show any change in the PTEN-negative JHUEM-14 cells or the P-REX2a-knockdown cells. Induction of P-REX2a increased and knockdown of P-REX2a decreased cell migration in both cell lines. Then, we performed expression microarray analysis using these cells, and pathway analysis revealed that the expression of members of the GPCR downstream pathway displayed the most significant changes induced by the knockdown of P-REX2a. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that Vav1, a member of the GPCR downstream pathway, was expressed in 139 of the 155 endometrial tumors, and the expression levels of Vav1 and P-REX2a showed a positive correlation (r = 0.44, p < 0.001). In conclusion, P-REX2a enhanced cell motility via the GPCR downstream pathway independently of PTEN leading to progression of uterine endometrioid malignancies and poor prognosis of the patients.

    Intrauterine inflammation causes preterm birth and is associated with complications in preterm neonates. Thus, strategies aimed at suppressing inflammation are expected to be effective for reducing the risk of preterm birth and associated complications. Our previous studies demonstrated that molecular hydrogen (H2), an anti-inflammatory agent, prevented inflammation-induced impairment in foetal brain and lung tissues in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced rodent models. However, it remains unclear whether H2 is capable of inhibiting preterm labour. The aim of the current study was therefore to investigate the effect of H2 on inflammation-induced preterm labour. Pregnant ICR (CD-1) mice were divided into three groups: Control, LPS and H2 water (HW) + LPS. In the control and LPS groups, vehicle and LPS, respectively, were intraperitoneally injected on embryonic day 15.5. In the HW + LPS group, HW was administered 24 h prior to LPS injection. The time from LPS administration to parturition was compared between the LPS and HW + LPS groups. Maternal uterus was collected 6 h after LPS injection and the transcript levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, contractile-associated proteins (CAPs), matrix metalloproteinase-3 (Mmp3) and endothelin-1 (Et1) were assessed by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The protein levels of cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox2) were also evaluated by immunohistochemistry. The time from LPS administration to parturition in the HW + LPS group was significantly increased compared with that in the LPS group (33.5±3.4 vs. 18.3±8.8 h, respectively, P=0.020). H2 administration also resulted in significantly higher progesterone levels compared with LPS treatment alone (P=0.002). The transcript levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, CAPs, Mmp3 and Et1 in the uteri of the LPS group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). In turn, all these levels with the exception of interleukin-8 and Mmp3 were significantly lower in the HW + LPS group compared with those in the LPS group (all P<0.05). The protein levels of Cox2 in the LPS group were also significantly increased compared with those in the control (P<0.001) and HW + LPS (P=0.003) groups. These results suggest that inflammation-induced changes in the uterus may be ameliorated through maternal H2 administration. Preventive H2 administration may therefore represent an effective strategy for the suppression of inflammation during preterm labour.

    Malignant mesothelioma is an aggressive neoplasm with no particularly effective treatments. We previously reported that overexpression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/CCN2) promotes mesothelioma growth, thus suggesting it as a novel molecular target. A human monoclonal antibody that antagonizes CTGF (FG-3019, pamrevlumab) attenuates malignant properties of different kinds of human cancers and is currently under clinical trial for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. This study reports the effects of FG-3019 on human mesothelioma in vitro and in vivo. We analyzed the effects of FG-3019 on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration/invasion, adhesion and anchorage-independent growth in three human mesothelioma cell lines, among which ACC-MESO-4 was most efficiently blocked with FG-3019 and was chosen for in vivo experiments. We also evaluated the coexistent effects of fibroblasts on mesothelioma in vitro, which are also known to produce CTGF in various pathologic situations. Coexistent fibroblasts in transwell systems remarkably promoted the proliferation and migration/invasion of mesothelioma cells. In orthotopic nude mice model, FG-3019 significantly inhibited mesothelioma growth. Histological analyses revealed that FG-3019 not only inhibited the proliferation but also induced apoptosis in both mesothelioma cells and fibroblasts. Our data suggest that FG-3019 antibody therapy could be a novel additional choice for the treatment of mesothelioma.

    Aims: Ossification is found occasionally in dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS). The aims of this study were to elucidate whether the formed bone tissue is usually produced by tumour cells or by reactive non-neoplastic cells, and to reveal the clinicopathological characteristics of DDLPS with ossification. Methods and results: We examined 36 cases of ossified DDLPS by comparing them to 31 cases of non-ossified DDLPS. MDM2 amplification was confirmed in osteocytes and/or osteoblastic cells in all but one ossified DDLPS cases (27 of 28) using fluorescence in-situ hybridisation, although the morphological impression of ossification appeared to be mainly metaplastic (27 of 36) or high-grade osteosarcoma-like (six of 36). The bone tissue was often formed predominantly at the periphery of the DDLPS area near the well-differentiated liposarcoma component (18 of 36), and an organised structure such as bone marrow-like differentiation was not uncommon (12 of 36). According to a modified French Fédération Nationale des Centers de Lutte Contre le Cancer (FNCLCC) grading system, ossified DDLPS tended to be lower grade than non-ossified DDLPS (mean grade: 1.88 and 2.15, respectively). Ossification in DDLPS was associated significantly with shorter local recurrence-free survival by multivariate analysis (P = 0.02347), but metaplastic-appearing ossification tended to be associated with longer overall survival (P = 0.1400). Conclusions: The bone tissue formed in DDLPS was mainly neoplastic regardless of its morphology and maturity, which highlighted the osteogenic differentiation of the tumour cells. DDLPS patients with osteogenic differentiation tended to suffer from earlier local recurrences, which did not necessarily lead to poor life outcomes.

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a rare but socially important neoplasm due to its association with asbestos exposure. Malignant mesothelioma is difficult to diagnose at an early stage, yet there are no particularly effective treatments available at the advanced stage, thus necessitating efficient strategies to prevent MM in individuals already exposed to asbestos. We previously showed that persistent oxidative damage caused by foreign body reaction and affinity of asbestos both to hemoglobin and histones is one of the major pathogeneses. Accordingly, as an effective strategy to prevent asbestos-induced MM, we undertook the use of an iron chelator, deferasirox, which decreased the epithelial–mesenchymal transition in a crocidolite-induced rat MM model. However, this agent may show adverse effects. Here, we studied the effects of iron removal by phlebotomy as a realistic measure on the same rat model. We injected a total of 5 mg crocidolite i.p. to F1 hybrid rats between the Fischer-344 and Brown-Norway strains at the age of 6 weeks. We repeated weekly or biweekly phlebotomy of 6-8 mL/kg/time from 10 to 60 weeks of age. The animals were observed until 120 weeks. In male rats, phlebotomy significantly decreased the weight and nuclear grade of MM, and modestly reduced the associated ascites and the fraction of more malignant sarcomatoid subtype. Weekly phlebotomy prolonged long-term survival. Our results indicate that appropriate phlebotomy may be a practical preventive measure to attenuate the initiation and promotion capacity of asbestos towards MM by reducing iron in individuals exposed to asbestos.

    Plasma-activated medium (PAM) is a novel chemotherapy that induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cell death in a wide range of cancer cell types, suggesting that PAM may be a promising therapeutic option for cancer treatment. However, dose response experiments suggest that PAM sensitivity is cell line specific. We examined the sensitivities of three glioblastoma cell lines to PAM, and found a wide variation in cell killing that was linked to differences in PAM induced ROS and apoptosis. These results indicate that the PAM sensitivity of glioblastoma cells, and potentially cancer cells more generally, is heterogeneous and likely to be dependent on the regulation of apoptosis and antioxidant pathways in target cells.

    Plasma medical science is a novel interdisciplinary field that combines studies on plasma science and medical science, with the anticipation that understanding the scientific principles governing plasma medical science will lead to innovations in the field. Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma has been used for medical treatments, such as for cancer, blood coagulation, and wound healing. The interactions that occur between plasma and cells/tissues have been analyzed extensively. Direct and indirect treatment of cells with plasma has broadened the applications of non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma in medicine. Examples of indirect treatment include plasma-assisted immune-therapy and plasma-activated medium. Controlling intracellular redox balance may be key in plasma cancer treatment. Animal studies are required to test the effectiveness and safety of these treatments for future clinical applications.

    Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a life-threatening neonatal disease that leads to lung hypoplasia and pulmonary hypertension. We recently found that maternal prenatal administration of Saireito (TJ-114) ameliorates fetal CDH in a nitrofen-induced rat model. Here, we studied the role of iron and oxidative stress in neonates of this model and in lung fibroblasts IMR90-SV in asso-ciation with nitrofen and Saireito. We observed increased immuno- staining of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine in the lungs of neonates with CDH, which was ameliorated by maternal Saireito intake. Pulmonary transferrin receptor expression was significantly decreased in both CDH and CDH after Saireito in comparison to normal controls, indicating functional lung immaturity, whereas catalytic Fe(ll) and pulmonaiy DMT1/ferroportin expression remained constant among the three groups. Saireito revealed a dose-dependent scavenging capacity with electron spin resonance spin trapping in vitro against hydroxyl radicals but not against superoxide. Finally, nitrofen revealed dose-dependent cytotoxicity to IMR90-SV cells, accompanied by an increase in oxidative stress, as seen by 5(6)-chloromethyl-2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate and catalytic Fe(ll). Saireito ameliorated all of these in IMR90-SV cells. In conclusion, catalytic Fe(ll)-dependent oxidative stress by nitrofen may be the pathogenic cause of CDH, and the antioxidative activity of Saireito is at least partially responsible for improving nitrof en-induced CDH.

    Oxidative stress including iron excess has been associated with carcinogenesis. The level of 8-oxoguanine, a major oxidatively modified base in DNA, is maintained very low by three distinct enzymes, encoded by OGG1, MUTYH and MTH1. Germline biallelic inactivation of MUTYH represents a familial cancer syndrome called MUTYH-associated polyposis. Here, we used Mutyh-deficient mice to evaluate renal carcinogenesis induced by ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA). Although the C57BL/6 background is cancer-resistant, a repeated intraperitoneal administration of Fe-NTA induced a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC; 26.7%) in Mutyh-deficient mice in comparison to wild-type mice (7.1%). Fe-NTA treatment also induced renal malignant lymphoma, which did not occur without the Fe-NTA treatment in both the genotypes. Renal tumor-free survival after Fe-NTA treatment was marginally different (P = 0.157) between the two genotypes. Array-based comparative genome hybridization analyses revealed, in RCC, the loss of heterozygosity in chromosomes 4 and 12 without p16INKA inactivation; these results were confirmed by a methylation analysis and showed no significant difference between the genotypes. Lymphomas showed a preference for genomic amplifications. Dlk1 inactivation by promoter methylation may be involved in carcinogenesis in both tumors. Fe-NTA-induced murine RCCs revealed significantly less genomic aberrations than those in rats, demonstrating a marked species difference.

    Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death characterized by the iron-dependent accumulation of lipid hydroperoxides to lethal levels. Emerging evidence suggests that ferroptosis represents an ancient vulnerability caused by the incorporation of polyunsaturated fatty acids into cellular membranes, and cells have developed complex systems that exploit and defend against this vulnerability in different contexts. The sensitivity to ferroptosis is tightly linked to numerous biological processes, including amino acid, iron, and polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism, and the biosynthesis of glutathione, phospholipids, NADPH, and coenzyme Q10. Ferroptosis has been implicated in the pathological cell death associated with degenerative diseases (i.e., Alzheimer's, Huntington's, and Parkinson's diseases), carcinogenesis, stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage, traumatic brain injury, ischemia-reperfusion injury, and kidney degeneration in mammals and is also implicated in heat stress in plants. Ferroptosis may also have a tumor-suppressor function that could be harnessed for cancer therapy. This Primer reviews the mechanisms underlying ferroptosis, highlights connections to other areas of biology and medicine, and recommends tools and guidelines for studying this emerging form of regulated cell death.

    Mammals incorporate a major proportion of absorbed iron as heme, which is catabolized by the heme oxygenase 1 (HO1)–NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) complex into biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and ferrous iron. Moreover, intestinal iron is incorporated as ferrous iron, which is transported via the iron importer, divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1). Recently, we demonstrated that the iron chaperone poly(rC)-binding protein 2 (PCBP2) can directly receive ferrous iron from DMT1 or transfer iron to the iron exporter, ferroportin 1. To promote intracellular iron flux, an iron chaperone may be essential for receiving iron generated by heme catabolism, but this hypothesis is untested so far. Herein, we demonstrate that HO1 binds to PCBP2, but not to other PCBP family members, namely PCBP1, PCBP3, or PCBP4. Interestingly, HO1 formed a complex with either CPR or PCBP2, and it was demonstrated that PCBP2 competes with CPR for HO1 binding. Using PCBP2-deletion mutants, we demonstrated that the PCBP2 K homology 3 domain is important for the HO1/PCBP2 interaction. In heme-loaded cells, heme prompted HO1–CPR complex formation and decreased the HO1/PCBP2 interaction. Furthermore, in vitro reconstitution experiments with purified recombinant proteins indicated that HO1 could bind to PCBP2 in the presence of heme, whereas loading of PCBP2 with ferrous iron caused PCBP2 to lose its affinity for HO1. These results indicate that ferrous iron released from heme can be bound by PCBP2 and suggest a model for an integrated heme catabolism and iron transport metabolon.

    Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma has been proposed as a new therapeutic tool for cancer treatment. Recently, plasma-activated medium (PAM) has been widely studied in various cancer types. However, there are only few reports demonstrating the anti-tumour effects of PAM in an animal model reflecting pathological conditions and the accompanying mechanism. Here we investigated the inhibitory effect of PAM on the metastasis of ovarian cancer ES2 cells in vitro and in vivo. We demonstrated that ES2 cell migration, invasion and adhesion were suppressed by PAM at a certain PAM dilution ratio, whereas cell viability remained unaffected. In an in vivo mouse model of intraperitoneal metastasis, PAM inhibited peritoneal dissemination of ES2 cells, resulting in prolonged survival. Moreover, we assessed the molecular mechanism and found that MMP-9 was decreased by PAM. On further investigation, we also found that PAM prevented the activation of the MAPK pathway by inhibiting the phosphorylation of JNK1/2 and p38 MAPK. These findings indicate that PAM inhibits the metastasis of ovarian cancer cells through reduction of MMP-9 secretion, which is critical for cancer cell motility. Our findings suggest that PAM intraperitoneal therapy may be a promising treatment option for ovarian cancer.

    Daily intake of vegetables can reduce the risk of cancer and lifestyle-related diseases. However, supplementary intake of p-carotene alone has been reported to increase the risk of lung cancer in male cigarette smokers and people who were exposed to asbestos. The mechanism of the antioxidative properties of carotenoids in vivo, especially under oxidative stress conditions, still remains unclear. To investigate the antioxidant properties of dietary compounds, we examined the effects of chemically modified astaxanthin (Ax-C-8) using a rat model of ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)-induced renal oxidative injury. Ax-C-8 demonstrated lethally toxic effects on the rats in a dose-dependent manner. Following supplementation with Ax-C-8 (0.02%, w/w) for 30 days, the rats were euthanized 1, 4 and 24 h after injection of Fe-NTA. After 4 h, Ax-C-8 pretreatment suppressed the elevation of creatinine and blood urea nitrogen and protected the rats from renal tubular necrosis and the formation of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins. After 24 h, pretreatment with Ax-C-8 maintained the renal antioxidant enzyme levels and renal tubules. Here, we demonstrate the antioxidant effects of Ax-C-8 against Fe-NTA-induced oxidative injury in rats receiving a regular diet. These data suggest that dietary intake of astaxanthin may be useful for the prevention of renal tubular oxidative damage.

    Epidemiological data indicate a constant worldwide increase in cancer mortality, although the age of onset is increasing. Recent accumulation of genomic data on human cancer via next-generation sequencing confirmed that cancer is a disease of genome alteration. In many cancers, the Nrf2 transcription system is activated via mutations either in Nrf2 or Keap1 ubiquitin ligase, leading to persistent activation of the genes with antioxidative functions. Furthermore, deep sequencing of passenger mutations is clarifying responsible cancer causative agent(s) in each case, including aging, APOBEC activation, smoking and UV. Therefore, it is most likely that oxidative stress is the principal initiating factor in carcinogenesis, with the involvement of two essential molecules for life, iron and oxygen. There is evidence based on epidemiological and animal studies that excess iron is a major risk for carcinogenesis, suggesting the importance of ferroptosis-resistance. Microscopic visualization of catalytic Fe(II) has recently become available. Although catalytic Fe(II) is largely present in lysosomes, proliferating cells harbor catalytic Fe(II) also in the cytosol and mitochondria. Oxidative stress catalyzed by Fe(II) is counteracted by thiol systems at different functional levels. Nitric oxide, carbon monoxide and hydrogen (per)sulfide modulate these reactions. Mitochondria generate not only energy but also heme/iron sulfur cluster cofactors and remain mostly dysfunctional in cancer cells, leading to Warburg effects. Cancer cells are under persistent oxidative stress with a delicate balance between catalytic iron and thiols, thereby escaping ferroptosis. Thus, high-dose L-ascorbate and non-thermal plasma as well as glucose/glutamine deprivation may provide additional benefits as cancer therapies over preexisting therapeutics.

    Non-thermal plasma (NTP) is a potential new therapeutic modality for cancer. However, its mechanism of action remains unclear. Herein, we studied the effect of NTP on mesothelioma cells and fibroblasts to understand its anti-proliferative efficacy. Interestingly, NTP demonstrated greater selective anti-proliferative activity against mesothelioma cells relative to fibroblasts than cisplatin, which is used for mesothelioma treatment. The anti-proliferative effect of NTP was enhanced by pre-incubation with the cellular iron donor, ferric ammonium citrate (FAC), and inhibited by iron chelation using desferrioxamine (DFO). Three oxidative stress probes (CM-H2DCFDA, MitoSOX and C11-BODIPY) demonstrated reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation by NTP, which was inhibited by DFO. Moreover, NTP decreased transferrin receptor-1 and increased ferritin-H and -L chain expression that was correlated with decreased iron-regulatory protein expression and RNA-binding activity. This regulation was potentially due to increased intracellular iron in lysosomes, which was demonstrated via the Fe(II)-selective probe, HMRhoNox-M, and was consistent with autophagic-induction. Immunofluorescence using LysoTracker and Pepstatin A probes demonstrated increased cellular lysosome content, which was confirmed by elevated LAMP1 expression. The enhanced lysosomal biogenesis after NTP could be due to the observed increase in fluid-phase endocytosis and early endosome formation. These results suggest NTP acts as a stressor, which results in increased endocytosis, lysosome content and autophagy. In fact, NTP rapidly increased autophagosome formation, as judged by increased LC3B-II expression, which co-localized with LAMP1, indicating autophagolysosome formation. Autophagic-induction by NTP was confirmed using electron microscopy. In summary, NTP acts as a cellular stressor to rapidly induce fluid-phase endocytosis, lysosome biogenesis and autophagy.

    Estradiol (E2) and the oestrogen receptor-alpha (ERα) signalling pathway play pivotal roles in the proliferative activity of breast cancer cells. Recent findings show that the brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange protein 3-prohibitin 2 (BIG3-PHB2) complex plays a crucial role in E2/ERα signalling modulation in breast cancer cells. Moreover, specific inhibition of the BIG3-PHB2 interaction using the ERα activity-regulator synthetic peptide (ERAP: 165-177 amino acids), derived from α-helical BIG3 sequence, resulted in a significant anti-tumour effect. However, the duration of this effect was very short for viable clinical application. We developed the chemically modified ERAP using stapling methods (stapledERAP) to improve the duration of its antitumour effects. The stapledERAP specifically inhibited the BIG3-PHB2 interaction and exhibited long-lasting suppressive activity. Its intracellular localization without the membrane-permeable polyarginine sequence was possible via the formation of a stable α-helix structure by stapling. Tumour bearing-mice treated daily or weekly with stapledERAP effectively prevented the BIG3-PHB2 interaction, leading to complete regression of E2-dependent tumours in vivo. Most importantly, combination of stapledERAP with tamoxifen, fulvestrant, and everolimus caused synergistic inhibitory effects on growth of breast cancer cells. Our findings suggested that the stapled ERAP may be a promising anti-tumour drug to suppress luminal-type breast cancer growth.

    Background. The signifcance of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) activity in the maintenance of cancer stem cells (CSCs) remains controversial. Previous fndings showed that mTORC1 activation depleted the population of leukemia stem cells in leukemia, while maintaining the stemness in pancreatic CSCs. The purpose of this study was to examine the currently unknown role and signifcance of mTORC1 activity in brain tumor stem cells (BTSCs). Methods. Basal mTORC1 activity and its kinetics were investigated in BTSC clones isolated from patients with glioblastoma and their differentiated progenies (DIFFs). The effects of nutrient deprivation and the mTORC1 inhibitors on cell proliferation were compared between the BTSCs and DIFFs. Tissue sections from patients with brain gliomas were examined for expression of BTSC markers and mTORC1 activity by immunohistochemistry. Results. BTSCs presented lower basal mTORC1 activity under each culture condition tested and a more rapid decline of mTORC1 activity after nutrient deprivation than observed in DIFFs. The self-renewal capacity of BTSCs was unaffected by mTORC1 inhibition, whereas it effectively suppressed DIFF proliferation. In agreement, immunohistochemical staining of glioma tissues revealed low mTORC1 activity in tumor cells positive for BTSC markers. In in vitro culture, BTSCs exhibited resistance to the antitumor agent temozolomide. Conclusions. Our fndings indicated the importance of low mTORC1 activity in maintaining the undifferentiated state of BTSCs, implicating the relevance of manipulating mTORC1 activity when developing future strategies that target BTSCs.

    Extraskeletal osteosarcoma (ESOS) is an uncommon malignant neoplasm. Most ESOSs are high grade, although some low-grade cases have been reported. A few cases of ESOS with MDM2 amplification have also been reported, suggesting some similarity to skeletal low-grade osteosarcoma such as parosteal osteosarcoma, where MDM2 is often amplified. However, the frequency of low-grade cases and cases with MDM2 amplification among ESOSs remains unknown, and their relationship is unclear. To clarify this, we examined 18 primary ESOS cases clinically, pathologically, and genetically, focusing on their MDM2 amplification status. Our cases comprised 10 men and 8 women whose mean age was 58.6 years; the most common site of the lesion was the thigh and buttock. There were one histologically low-grade case evaluated by biopsy specimen with an aggressive course and 2 relatively low-grade cases whose lesions were of low grade for the most part. MDM2 amplification status was revealed by fluorescence in situ hybridization in all 18 cases; 2 patients—histologically intermediate- and high-grade cases—were found to have MDM2 amplification. In conclusion, this study indicates that histologically low-grade and relatively low-grade cases of ESOS are not always associated with MDM2 amplification. The ESOS case with MDM2 amplification could be high grade, although MDM2-amplified dedifferentiated liposarcoma with osteogenic differentiation should be ruled out in making the diagnosis.

    CD44 exists as a standard (CD44s) isoform and different variant isoforms (CD44v) due to alternative splicing. While the complex nature of these different isoforms has not been fully elucidated, CD44v expression has been shown to exert oncogenic effects by promoting tumor progression, metastasis and resistance of tumor cells to chemotherapy. One of the CD44v isoforms, CD44v8-10, was recently shown to protect cancer cells from oxidative stress by increasing the synthesis of glutathione (GSH). However, data regarding CD44 isoform expression in malignant mesothelioma (MM) are still lacking. Here, we show that most of the MM cell lines express both the CD44s and CD44v isoforms, in contrast to non-tumorigenic mesothelial cells, which express only CD44s. Moreover, we show here that these MM cell lines are positive for CD44 variable exon 9, with CD44v8-10 among the variant isoforms expressed. The expression of CD44 variable exon 9 was found to be statistically associated with NF2 inactivation, a common occurrence in MM. Knockdown of CD44 reduced the protein level of xCT, a cystine transporter, and increased oxidative stress. However, an increase in GSH was also observed and was associated with enhanced chemoresistance in CD44-knockdown cells. Increased GSH was mediated by the Nrf2/AP-1-induced upregulation of GCLC, a subunit of the enzyme catalyzing GSH synthesis. Our results thus suggest that the response to CD44 depletion is cell type-dependent and, in cases such as MM cells, compensatory pathway(s) might be activated rheostatically to account for the loss of CD44 and counteract enhanced oxidative stress.

    Xanthohumol (XN), a simple prenylated chalcone, can be isolated from hops and has the potential to be a cancer chemopreventive agent against several human tumor cell lines. We previously identified valosin-containing protein (VCP) as a target of XN; VCP can also play crucial roles in cancer progression and prognosis. Therefore, we investigated the molecular mechanisms governing the contribution of VCP to the antitumor activity of XN. Several human tumor cell lines were treated with XN to investigate which human tumor cell lines are sensitive to XN. Several cell lines exhibited high sensitivity to XN both in vitro and in vivo. shRNA screening and bioinformatics analysis identified that the inhibition of the adenylate cyclase (AC) pathway synergistically facilitated apoptosis induced by VCP inhibition. These results suggest that there is crosstalk between the AC pathway and VCP function, and targeting both VCP and the AC pathway is a potential chemotherapeutic strategy for a subset of tumor cells.

    The therapeutic effects of non-thermal plasma are expected in the medical fields, including hemostasis, vascularization, prevention of organ adhesion, and cell proliferation. Cancer is an internal enemy arising from normal tissue in the body. The prognosis of metastatic and recurrent cancers is still poor despite advances in medicine. To apply non-thermal plasma in cancer treatment is now on going. The mechanism of the proliferation-inhibitory effect of plasma is reactive nitrogen oxide species/reactive oxygen species production in cells. There are a number of problems to be overcome, such as existence of intrinsic reactive oxygen species/ reactive nitrogen species scavengers and the shallow infiltration of plasma on tumor surface. The current reviews makes referral to the study results of plasma therapy clarified so far, the possibility of its application in the future.

    地球の生命体において鉄は必須であり、高等生物の生命は鉄・酸素・食物によって紡がれる。細胞内で電子の流れを作り制御された化学反応を行うのが酸素の主な役割であるが、体内に取り込まれた酸素の数%は活性酸素・フリーラジカルとなり生体分子に切断・修飾・重合などの傷害を与える。この反応は2価鉄触媒によるFenton反応として1894年より認識されていた。当初放射線の生物作用として理解されたが、1968年SOD発見により活性酸素・フリーラジカルの化学反応が細胞内で常時発生していることが認識されるようになった。発がんは1980年代に始まるがん遺伝子・がん抑制遺伝子の概念の確立により、論理的に理解されるようになった。発がん要因分類として、環境因子・習慣・職業曝露・食習慣・感染症・慢性炎症・遺伝的要因などが列挙され、それを防ぐような手立てが取られてきた。しかし日本では1981年以降、がんが死因の第1位であり右上りである。2014年には英国男性で初めてがんが死因の第1位になった。死因としてのがんの独走は今のがん予防法に大きな疑問を投げかける。私はこれまでの研究より、がんの独走を私たちが酸素と鉄を使用する宿命と理解したい。Wild typeのラットにFenton反応を起こすことでヒトのがんのゲノム変化と酷似したがんが発生することはこの仮説を強く支持する。アスベストや多層カーボンナノチューブによる発がんも異物発がんで基本的には過剰鉄を介するものであり、ラットとヒトで極めて類似したゲノム変化が見られることも注目に値する。これまでの観察により、これらの動物発がんは1ヶ月程度までの初期変化と正比例関係にあることは、毒性学にとって極めて重要であると考えたい。鉄の制御こそが今、がん制御に重要であると考えられる。鉄は一旦、血液内に入ると、体外への積極的な排泄経路はない。50才を過ぎると基礎代謝も低下し、女性は閉経を迎え、鉄が余分になる。私が年2回の全血献血を推奨する所以である。

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a rare neoplasm associated with asbestos exposure. The prognosis of MM is poor because it is aggressive and highly resistant to chemotherapy. Using a rat model of asbestos-induced MM, we found elevated urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR; Plaur) expression in rat tissues, which was associated with poor prognosis. The proliferation, migration and invasion of MM cells were suppressed by uPAR knockdown and increased by overexpression experiments, irrespective of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA; Plau) levels. More importantly, we found that uPAR expression is associated with sensitivity to cisplatin in MM through the PI3K/AKT pathway, which was demonstrated with specific inhibitors, LY294002 and Akti-1/2. uPAR knockdown significantly increased sensitivity to cisplatin whereas its overexpression significantly decreased cisplatin sensitivity. Furthermore, sera and tissues from MM patients showed significantly high uPAR levels, which suggested the pathogenic role of uPAR in the tumor biology of human MM. In conclusion, our findings indicate that uPAR levels are associated with malignant characteristics and cisplatin sensitivity of MM. In addition to the potential use of uPAR as a prognostic marker, the combination of uPAR abrogation and cisplatin may reveal a promising therapeutic approach for MM.

    Endometriosis is observed in ∼10% of reproductive age women. Ovarian endometriosis not only causes dysmenorrhea but also causes infertility and a high risk of adenocarcinoma. Due to its scattered nature, complete surgical resection is difficult. Endometriosis consists of glandular and stromal cells. Previously, we showed that endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) play a role in the protection against pathologic events caused by monthly repeated hemorrhage. Here, we undertook a preclinical study of non-thermal plasma (NTP) as a surgical treatment of endometriosis. Epithelial cells were most sensitive to NTP-activated medium in vitro, whereas ectopic ESCs were most resistant. We then transplanted excised uteruses into BALB/c mice from donors of the same strain with estradiol supplementation. Four weeks after the transplantation, we exposed NTP to each endometriotic lesion after laparotomy. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that immediately after NTP exposure, epithelial cells exhibited significantly higher levels of nuclear immunostaining for 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine than did stromal cells. Four weeks after NTP exposure, the total surface area consisting of endometriotic cysts was significantly smaller with less epithelial proliferative activity than the helium-exposed control, whereas the number of endometriotic lesions had not changed. Therefore, NTP exposure may be useful to prevent the progression and recurrence of endometriosis.

    Neurotoxicity of 1-bromopropane (1-BP) has been reported in both human cases and animal studies. To date, neurotoxicity of 1-BP has been induced in rats but not in mice due to the lethal hepatotoxicity of 1-BP. Oxidization by cytochromes P450 and conjugation with glutathione (GSH) are two critical metabolism pathways of 1-BP and play important roles in toxicity of 1-BP. The aim of the present study was to establish a murine model of 1-BP neurotoxicity, by reducing the hepatotoxicity of 1-BP with 1-aminobenzotriazole (1-ABT); a commonly used nonspecific P450s inhibitor. The results showed that subcutaneous or intraperitoneal injection of 1-ABT at 50 mg/kg body weight BID (100 mg/kg BW/day) for 3 days, inhibited about 92–96% of hepatic microsomal CYP2E1 activity, but only inhibited about 62–64% of CYP2E1 activity in brain microsomes. Mice treated with 1-ABT survived even after exposure to 1200 ppm 1-BP for 4 weeks and histopathological studies showed that treatment with 1-ABT protected mice from 1-BP-induced hepatic necrosis, hepatocyte degeneration, and hemorrhage. After 4-week exposure to 1-BP, the brain weight of 1-ABT(+)/1200 ppm 1-BP group was decreased significantly. In 1-ABT-treated groups, expression of hippocampal Ran protein and cerebral cortical GRP78 was dose-dependently increased by exposure to 1-BP. We conclude that the control of hepatic P450 activity allows the observation of effects of 1-BP on the murine brain at a higher concentration by reduction of hepatotoxicity. The study suggests that further experiments with liver-specific control of P450 activity using gene technology might provide better murine models for 1-bromopropane-induced neurotoxicity.

    Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) can induce lung hypoplasia and pulmonary hypertension and is associated with high mortality. The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of antenatal Saireito (TJ-114), a traditional Japanese herbal medicine, in a rat CDH model. Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to an herbicide (nitrofen, 100 mg) on embryonic day 9 (E9) to induce CDH, and antenatal Saireito (2000 mg/kg/day) was orally administered from E10 to E20. On E21, fetuses were delivered. Antenatal Saireito significantly decreased the incidence of CDH (p < 0.01), increased lung volume (p < 0.01), improved alveolarization and pulmonary artery remodeling using histological analysis, and improved respiratory function using gasometric analysis (pH; p < 0.05, and PCO2; p < 0.01). In addition, antenatal Saireito significantly decreased endothelin-1 and endothelin receptor A expression in the pulmonary arteries. Taken together, our results demonstrated that antenatal Saireito can improve fetal pulmonary hypoplasia and pulmonary vascular remodeling and, as a result, can improve respiratory function in a rat CDH model.

    Iron is an essential nutrient for every type of life on earth. However, excess iron is cytotoxic and can lead to an increased cancer risk in humans. Catalytic ferrous iron [Fe(II)] is an initiator of the Fenton reaction, which causes oxidative stress by generating hydroxyl radicals. Recently, it became possible to localize catalytic Fe(II) in situ with a turn-on fluorescent probe, RhoNox-1. Here, we screened each organ/cell of rats to globally evaluate the distribution of catalytic Fe(II) and found that eosinophils showed the highest abundance. In various cells, lysosomes were the major organelle, sharing ∼40–80% of RhoNox-1 fluorescence. We then used an ovalbumin-induced allergic peritonitis model to study the dynamics of catalytic Fe(II). Peritoneal lavage revealed that the total iron contents per cell were significantly decreased, whereas an increase in the number of inflammatory cells (macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils and lymphocytes) resulted in an increased total iron content of the peritoneal inflammatory cells. Notably, macrophages, eosinophils and neutrophils exhibited significantly increased catalytic Fe(II) with increased DMT1 expression and decreased ferritin expression, though catalytic Fe(II) was significantly decreased in the peritoneal lavage fluid. In conclusion, catalytic Fe(II) in situ more directly reflects cellular activity and the accompanying pathology than total iron does.

    Non- Thermal atmospheric pressure plasma has been widely studied in recent years in many fields,including cancer treatment. However,its efficiency for inducing apoptosis sometimes varies depending on the cell species and experimental conditions. The aim of this study was to elucidate what causes these differences in responses to plasma treatment. Using four ovarian cancer cell lines,the cell density had a markedly negative impact on the proliferation inhibition rate (PIR) and it was more obvious in OVCAR-3 and NOS2 cells. Furthermore,TOV21G and ES-2 cells were drastically sensitive to plasma- Activated medium (PAM) compared with the other two cell lines. We demonstrated that the proportion of reactive oxygen species and cell number had a marked impact on the effect of PAM against ovarian cancer cells. Additionally it was suggested that the morphological features of cells were also closely related to the sensitivity of cancer cells to the plasma treatment.

    Essential metals, such as iron and copper, play a critical role in a plethora of cellular processes including cell growth and proliferation. However, concomitantly, excess of these metal ions in the body can have deleterious effects due to their ability to generate cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS). Thus, the human body has evolved a very well-orchestrated metabolic system that keeps tight control on the levels of these metal ions. Considering their very high proliferation rate, cancer cells require a high abundance of these metals compared to their normal counterparts. Interestingly, new anti-cancer agents that take advantage of the sensitivity of cancer cells to metal sequestration and their susceptibility to ROS have been developed. These ligands can avidly bind metal ions to form redox active metal complexes, which lead to generation of cytotoxic ROS. Furthermore, these agents also act as potent metastasis suppressors due to their ability to up-regulate the metastasis suppressor gene, N-myc downstream regulated gene 1. This review discusses the importance of iron and copper in the metabolism and progression of cancer, how they can be exploited to target tumors and the clinical translation of novel anti-cancer chemotherapeutics.

    Anesthesia is sometimes used for the reduction of maternal pain in normal human term labor, but whether the drugs affect oxidative stress remains unclear. The placenta serves as an interface between the maternal and fetal vasculature. In this study, we immunohistochemically analyzed two markers for oxidative stress, namely 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins (HNE), using placentas from 21 cases of normal tansvaginal delivery (V group), 20 Caesarean sections (C group), and 17 normal transvaginal deliveries with epidural anesthesia (E group). 8-OHdG staining in the nuclei of trophoblasts lining the chorionic villi was significantly stronger in the V group either compared with the C or E group (p<0.001), without significant differences in the C and E groups (p = 0.792). Moderate to intense staining by HNE of the intravascular serum of chorionic villi vasculature was frequently observed in the placentas from the V group, but less frequently of those in either C or E groups (p<0.001), nor the p value comparing the C and E groups was significant (p = 0.128) for HNE staining. Our results suggest that although the role of oxidative stress and its influences on fetal state in the placenta in labor remains unclear, it seems to be lessened by epidural anesthesia.

    Multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) are a form of flexible fibrous nanomaterial with high electrical and thermal conductivity. However, 50-nm MWCNT in diameter causes malignant mesothelioma (MM) in rodents and, thus, the International Agency of Research on Cancer has designated them as a possible human carcinogen. Little is known about the molecular mechanism through which MWCNT causes MM. To elucidate the carcinogenic mechanisms of MWCNT in mesothelial cells, we used a variety of lysates to comprehensively identify proteins specifically adsorbed on pristine MWCNT of different diameters (50 nm, NT50; 100 nm, NT100; 150 nm, NT150; and 15 nm/tangled, NTtngl) using mass spectrometry. We identified >400 proteins, which included hemoglobin, histone, transferrin and various proteins associated with oxidative stress, among which we selected hemoglobin and transferrin for coating MWCNT to further evaluate cytotoxicity, wound healing, intracellular catalytic ferrous iron and oxidative stress in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells (RPMC). Cytotoxicity to RPMC was observed with pristine NT50 but not with NTtngl. Coating NT50 with hemoglobin or transferrin significantly aggravated cytotoxicity to RPMC, with an increase in cellular catalytic ferrous iron and DNA damage also observed. Knockdown of transferrin receptor with ferristatin II decreased not only NT50 uptake but also cellular catalytic ferrous iron. Our results suggest that adsorption of hemoglobin and transferrin on the surface of NT50 play a role in causing mesothelial iron overload, contributing to oxidative damage and possibly subsequent carcinogenesis in mesothelial cells. Uptake of NT50 at least partially depends on transferrin receptor 1. Modifications of NT50 surface may decrease this human risk.

    Exposure to inflammation in utero is related to perinatal brain injury, which is itself associated with high rates of long-term morbidity and mortality in children. Novel therapeutic interventions during the perinatal period are required to prevent inflammation, but its pathogenesis is incompletely understood. Activated microglia are known to play a central role in brain injury by producing a variety of pro-inflammatory cytokines and releasing oxidative products. The study is aimed to investigate the preventative potential of molecular hydrogen (H2), which is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent without mutagenicity. Pregnant ICR mice were injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) intraperitoneally on embryonic day 17 to create a model of perinatal brain injury caused by prenatal inflammation. In this model, the effect of maternal administration of hydrogen water (HW) on pups was also evaluated. The levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, oxidative damage and activation of microglia were determined in the fetal brains. H2 reduced the LPS-induced expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, oxidative damage and microglial activation in the fetal brains. Next, we investigated how H2 contributes to neuroprotection, focusing on microglia, using primary cultured microglia and neurons. H2 prevented LPS- or cytokine-induced generation of reactive oxidative species by microglia and reduced LPS-induced microglial neurotoxicity. Finally, we identified several molecules influenced by H2, involved in the process of activating microglia. These results suggested that H2 holds promise for the prevention of inflammation related to perinatal brain injury.

    Cancer treatment using non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma is a brand new and challenging approach for cancer therapy. Conventional cancer therapies are surgery, radio-therapy, and chemo-therapy. We propose plasma-therapy as the fourth cancer therapy. Plasma cancer therapy involves direct plasma treatment of cancers including melanomas, head and neck cancer, pancreatic cancer and liver metastasis, and indirect plasma treatment of cancers by using plasma irradiated solutions such as plasma-activated medium (PAM).We have been recently studying plasma cancer therapy using target cancers such as ovarian cancers, brain tumors, gastric cancers and skin cancers. We have developed a plasma source with ultrahigh electron density, which we have applied to these cancer cells. In addition, we found that plasma-irradiated medium itself can kill these cancer cells. This medium was termed plasma-activated medium (PAM). In vitro and in vivo studies have suggested that PAM is an important tool for cancer therapy especially for disseminated cancers that are currently untreatable.Although many dramatic therapeutic effects of plasma therapy on cancer cells have been reported, the molecular mechanisms of the anti-tumor effects of plasma remain to be elucidated. The greatest challenge for plasma medical science is to understand the complex system that mediates plasma inputs resulting in physiological outputs such as cell death of cancer cells and proliferation of normal cells. Intracellular molecular mechanisms of PAM are also being intensively studied in order to understand the mode of action of PAM. In this review, we summarize the latest understanding of plasma cancer treatments.

    Cancer therapy using non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma is a big challenge in plasma medicine. Reactive species generated from plasma are key factors for treating cancer cells, and thus, non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma with high electron density has been developed and applied for cancer treatment. Various cancer cell lines have been treated with plasma, and non-thermal atmospheric plasma clearly has anti-tumor effects. Recent innovative studies suggest that plasma can both directly and indirectly affect cells and tissues, and this observation has widened the range of applications. Thus, cancer therapy using non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma is promising. Animal experiments and understanding the mode of action are essential for clinical application in the future. A new academic field that combines plasma science, the biology of free radicals, and systems biology will be established.

    Ovarian endometriosis is a recognized risk for infertility and epithelial ovarian cancer, presumably due to iron overload resulting from repeated hemorrhage. To find a clue for early detection and prevention of ovarian endometriosis-associated cancer, it is mandatory to evaluate catalytic (labile) ferrous iron (catalytic Fe(II)) and to study iron manipulation in ovarian endometriotic lesions. By the use of tissues from women of ovarian endometriosis as well as endometrial tissue from women with and without endometriosis, we for the first time performed histological analysis and cellular detection of catalytic Fe(II) with a specific fluorescent probe (HMRhoNox-M), and further evaluated iron transport proteins in the human specimens and in co-culture experiments using immortalized human eutopic/ectopic endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) in the presence or absence of epithelial cells (EpCs). The amounts of catalytic Fe(II) were higher in ectopic endometrial stromal cells (ecESCs) than in normal eutopic endometrial stromal cells (n-euESCs) both in the tissues and in the corresponding immortalized ESCs. ecESCs exhibited higher transferrin receptor 1 expression both in vivo and in vitro and lower ferroportin expression in vivo than n-euESCs, leading to sustained iron uptake. In co-culture experiments of ESCs with iron-loaded EpCs, ecESCs received catalytic ferrous iron from EpCs, but n-euESCs did not. These data suggest that ecESC play a protective role for cancer-target epithelial cells by collecting excess iron, and that these characteristics are retained in the immortalized ecESCs.

    Abstract Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a relatively rare cancer that occurs almost exclusively following respiratory exposure to asbestos in humans. Its pathogenesis is closely associated with iron overload and oxidative stress in mesothelial cells. On fiber exposure, mesothelial cells accumulate fibers simultaneously with iron, which either performs physical scissor function or catalyzes free radical generation, leading to oxidative DNA damage such as strand breaks and base modifications, followed by activation of intracellular signaling pathways. Chrysotile, per se without iron, causes massive hemolysis and further adsorbs hemoglobin. Exposure to indigestible foreign materials also induces chronic inflammation, involving consistent generation of free radicals and subsequent activation of NALP3 inflammasomes in macrophages. All of these contribute to mesothelial carcinogenesis. Genomic alterations most frequently involve homozygous deletion of INK4A/4B, and other pathways such as Hippo and TGF-β pathways are also affected in MM. Recently, analyses of familial MM sorted out BAP1 as a novel responsible tumor suppressor gene, whose function is not fully elucidated. Five-year survival of mesothelioma is still ~8%, and this cancer is increasing worldwide. Connective tissue growth factor, a secretory protein creating a vicious cycle mediated by β-catenin, has been recognized as a hopeful target for therapy, especially in sarcomatoid subtype. Recent research outcomes related to microRNAs and cancer stem cells also offer additional novel targets for the treatment of MM. Iron reduction as chemoprevention of mesothelioma is helpful at least in an animal preclinical study. Integrated approaches to fiber-induced oxidative stress would be necessary to overcome this currently fatal disease.

    Involvement of iron in the development of neurodegenerative disorders has long been suggested, and iron that cannot be stored properly is suggested to induce iron toxicity. To enhance iron uptake and suppress iron storage in neurons, we generated transgenic (Tg) mice expressing iron regulatory protein 2 (IRP2), a major regulator of iron metabolism, in a neuron-specific manner. Although very subtle, IRP2 was expressed in all regions of brain examined. In the Tg mice, mitochondrial oxidative insults were observed including generation of 4-hydroxynonenal modified proteins, which appeared to be removed by a mitochondrial quality control protein Parkin. Inter-crossing of the Tg mice to Parkin knockout mice perturbed the integrity of neurons in the substantia nigra and provoked motor symptoms. These results suggest that a subtle, but chronic increase in IRP2 induces mitochondrial oxidative insults and accelerates neurodegeneration in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease. Thus, the IRP2 Tg may be a useful tool to probe the roles of iron-induced mitochondrial damages in neurodegeraration research.

    Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a novel synthetic material comprising only carbon atoms. Based on its rigidity, its electrical and heat conductivity and its applicability to surface manufacturing, this material is expected to have numerous applications in industry. However, due to the material's dimensional similarity to asbestos fibers, its carcinogenicity was hypothesized during the last decade, and indeed, we have shown that multi- wall CNTs (MWCNTs) of 50 nm in diameter are potently carcinogenic to mesothelial cells after intraperitoneal injection. Additionally, we suggested that inflammogenicity after intraperitoneal injection can predict mesothelial carcinogenesis. However, few data have been published on the intraperitoneal inflammogenicity of single-wall CNTs (SWCNTs). Here, we conducted a series of studies on SWCNTs using both intraperitoneal injection into rats and MeT5A mesothelial cells. Intraperitoneal injection of 10 mg SWCNTs caused no remarkable inflammation in the abdominal cavity, and the exposure of MeT5A cells to up to 25 mu g/cm(2) SWCNTs did not alter proliferation. MWCNTs of 50 nm in diameter were used as a positive control, and tangled MWCNTs of 15 nm in diameter were used as a negative control. The results suggest that SWCNTs are a low- risk material with respect to mesothelial carcinogenesis.

Napsin A is a known diagnostic marker for lung adenocarcinoma, and expression of napsin A is reported in a certain portion of thyroid and renal carcinomas. However, napsin A expression in ovarian surface epithelial tumors has not previously been examined. In this study, immunohistochemical analysis revealed that in 71 of 86 ovarian clear cell adenocarcinoma patients (83%) and all of the 13 patients with ovarian clear cell adenofibroma, positive napsin A staining was evident. No expression was observed in 30 serous adenocarcinomas, 11 serous adenomas or borderline tumors, 19 endometrioid adenocarcinomas, 22 mucinous adenomas or borderline tumors, 10 mucinous adenocarcinomas, or 3 yolk sac tumors of the ovary. Furthermore, expression of napsin A was not observed in the normal surface epithelium of the ovary, epithelia of the fallopian tubes, squamous epithelium, endocervical epithelium, or the endometrium of the uterus. Therefore, we propose that napsin A is another sensitive and specific marker for distinguishing ovarian clear cell tumors (especially adenocarcinomas) from other ovarian tumors.

    Determinants of workplace violence against clinical physicians in hospitals: Jeng-Cheng WU, et al. Department of Urology, Taipei Medical University Hospital, Taiwan-Objectives: Workplace violence in the health sector is a worldwide concern. Physicians play an essential role in health-care teamwork; thus, understanding how organizational factors influence workplace violence against physicians is critical. Methods: A total of 189 physicians from three public hospitals and one private hospital in Northern Taiwan completed a survey, and the response rate was 47.1%. This study was approved by the institutional review board of each participating hospital. The 189 physicians were selected from the Taipei area, Taiwan. Results: The results showed that 41.5% of the respondents had received at least one workplace-related physical or verbal violent threat, and that 9.8% of the respondents had experienced at least one episode of sexual harassment in the 3 months before the survey. Logistic regression analysis revealed that physicians in psychiatry or emergency medicine departments received more violent threats and sexual harassment than physicians in other departments. Furthermore, physicians with a lower workplace safety climate (OR=0.89; 95% CI=0.81-0.98) and more job demands (OR=1.15; 95% CI=1.02-1.30) were more likely to receive violent threats. Conclusions: This study found that workplace violence was associated with job demands and the workplace safety climate. Therefore, determining how to develop a workplace safety climate and ensure a safe job environment for physicians is a crucial management policy issue for health-care systems.

    Maternal inflammation is associated with spontaneous preterm birth and respiratory impairment among premature infants. Recently, molecular hydrogen (H2) has been reported to have a suppressive effect on oxidative stress and inflammation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of H2 on fetal lung injury caused by maternal inflammation. Cell viability and the production of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were examined by treatment with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) contained in ordinal or H2-rich medium (HM) using a human lung epithelial cell line, A549. Pregnant Sprague Dawley rats were divided into three groups: Control, LPS, and HW + LPS groups. Rats were injected with phosphate-buffered saline (Control) or LPS intraperitoneally (LPS) on gestational day 19 and provided H2 water (HW) ad libitum for 24 h before LPS injection (HW + LPS). Fetal lung samples were collected on day 20, and the levels of apoptosis, oxidative damage, IL-6, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were evaluated using immunohistochemistry. The number of apoptotic cells, and levels of ROS and IL-6 were significantly increased by LPS treatment, and repressed following cultured with HM in A549 cells. In the rat models, the population positive for cleaved caspase-3, 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine, IL-6, and VEGF was significantly increased in the LPS group compared with that observed in the Control group and significantly decreased in the HW + LPS group. In this study, LPS administration induced apoptosis and oxidative damage in fetal lung cells that was ameliorated by maternal H2 intake. Antenatal H2 administration may decrease the pulmonary mobility associated with inflammation in premature infants.

    Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a novel synthetic material comprising only carbon atoms. Based on its rigidity, its electrical and heat conductivity and its applicability to surface manufacturing, this material is expected to have numerous applications in industry. However, due to the material's dimensional similarity to asbestos fibers, its carcinogenicity was hypothesized during the last decade, and indeed, we have shown that multi-wall CNTs (MWCNTs) of 50 nm in diameter are potently carcinogenic to mesothelial cells after intraperitoneal injection. Additionally, we suggested that inflammogenicity after intraperitoneal injection can predict mesothelial carcinogenesis. However, few data have been published on the intraperitoneal inflammogenicity of single-wall CNTs (SWCNTs). Here, we conducted a series of studies on SWCNTs using both intraperitoneal injection into rats and MeT5A mesothelial cells. Intraperitoneal injection of 10 mg SWCNTs caused no remarkable inflammation in the abdominal cavity, and the exposure of MeT5A cells to up to 25 μg/cm2 SWCNTs did not alter proliferation. MWCNTs of 50 nm in diameter were used as a positive control, and tangled MWCNTs of 15 nm in diameter were used as a negative control. The results suggest that SWCNTs are a low-risk material with respect to mesothelial carcinogenesis.

    現在、日本人死因の第1位はがんである。産業・経済の発展を重視するあまり、リスク評価が十分になされないまま、ナノマテリアルが社会に多量に持ち込まれ、がんの原因となったことを忘れてはならない。それがアスベストであり、白石綿・青石綿・茶石綿が世界中で多量に使用された。日本では2006年に全面禁止となったが、アジア諸国を中心に現在も産生・使用されている。日本の中皮腫発生ピークは2025年と予想されており、今後10万人以上が中皮腫で死亡すると試算され、現在発生数が増加している。ラットで上記3種のアスベストの腹腔内10mg投与により中皮腫発がん実験を行った。2年の経過でほぼ全動物に中皮腫が発生した。アスベスト投与部の中皮細胞や貪食細胞に著明な鉄沈着を認め、Fenton反応促進性のニトリロ三酢酸の追加投与により、中皮腫発生が有意に早くなった。93%の腫瘍で<i>Cdkn2a/2b</i>のホモ欠損を認めた。アスベスト発がんでは局所の過剰鉄病態が重要なことが示唆された。このような背景のもと、すでに中皮腫の危険性の報告のあった多層カーボンナノチューブ(MWCNT)の評価を行った。MWCNTは軽量・高強度で熱伝導性が高く、導体・半導体になることからすでに使用されているが、物理的形状は石綿に酷似している。直径が15/50/115/150 nmのMWCNTを使用し中皮細胞毒性実験ならびに、上記と同様のラットを使用した発がん実験を行った。中皮細胞への毒性と発がん性はほぼ一致し、直径50 nmのMWCNTの発がん性が最も高かった。<i>Cdkn2a/2b</i>のホモ欠損をほぼ全例で認めた。このことは、剛性が高い50 nm直径のMWCNTは特に注意して扱うべきことを示唆している(IARC Group 2B)。ヒトにおいて体腔に繊維が到達することはそう容易ではないと考えられるが、感染症が克服され、ますます長寿化が進む現在、新素材の十分なリスク評価とリスク管理は重要と考える。参考文献:1.

    8-Oxoguanine (8-oxoG) is one of the most common DNA lesions generated by reactive oxygen species. In this study, we analysed the genome-wide distribution profile of 8-oxoG by combining immunoprecipitation by antibodies specific for the DNA fragments containing 8-oxoG with a microarray that covers rat genome. Genome-wide mapping of 8-oxoG in normal rat kidney revealed that 8-oxoG is preferentially located at gene deserts. We did not observe differences in 8-oxoG levels between groups of genes with high and low expression, possibly because of the generally low 8-oxoG levels in genic regions compared with gene deserts. The distribution of 8-oxoG and lamina-associated domains (LADs) were strongly correlated, suggesting that the spatial location of genomic DNA in the nucleus determines the susceptibility to oxidative modifications. One possible explanation for high 8-oxoG levels in LADs is that the nuclear periphery is more susceptible to the oxidative damage caused by the extra-nuclear factors. Moreover, LADs have a rather compact conformation, which may limit the recruitment of repair components to the modified bases.

    We have been developing novel ultrahigh density atmospheric pressure plasma sources and succeeded in the selective killing ovarian cancer cells against normal ones. Furthermore, we have found out the plasma-activated medium (PAM) also killed glioblastoma brain tumor cells selectively against normal ones and the chemical products in the PAM have long lifetime healing effects. To clarify the mechanism, interactions of plasma with the organism and the medium where the organism belongs were investigated on the viewpoint of intracellular molecular mechanism.

    Thermal plasmas and lasers are used in medicine to cut and ablate tissues and for coagulation. Non-equilibrium atmospheric pressure plasma (NEAPP) is a recently developed, non-thermal technique with possible biomedical applications. Although NEAPP reportedly generates reactive oxygen/nitrogen species, electrons, positive ions, and ultraviolet radiation, little research has been done into the use of this technique for conventional free radical biology. Recently, we developed a NEAPP device with high electron density. Electron spin resonance spin-trapping revealed .OH as a major product. To obtain evidence of NEAPP-induced oxidative modifications in biomolecules and standardize them, we evaluated lipid peroxidation and DNA modifications in various in vitro and ex vivo experiments. Conjugated dienes increased after exposure to linoleic and α-linolenic acids. An increase in 2-thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances was also observed after exposure to phosphatidylcholine, liposomes or liver homogenate. Direct exposure to rat liver in saline produced immunohistochemical evidence of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal- and acrolein-modified proteins. Exposure to plasmid DNA induced dose-dependent single/double strand breaks and increased the amounts of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine and cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers. These results indicate that oxidative biomolecular damage by NEAPP is dose-dependent and thus can be controlled in a site-specific manner. Simultaneous oxidative and UV-specific DNA damage may be useful in cancer treatment.

    Iron overload of a chronic nature has been associated with a wide variety of human diseases, including infection, carcinogenesis, and atherosclerosis. Recently, a highly specific turn-on fluorescent probe (RhoNox-1) specific to labile ferrous iron [Fe(II)], but not to labile ferric iron [Fe(III)], was developed. The evaluation of Fe(II) is more important than Fe(III) in vivo in that Fe(II) is an initiating component of the Fenton reaction. In this study, we applied this probe to frozen sections of an established Fenton reaction-based rat renal carcinogenesis model with an iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), in which catalytic iron induces the Fenton reaction specifically in the renal proximal tubules, presumably after iron reduction. Notably, this probe reacted with Fe(II) but with neither Fe(II)-NTA, Fe(III) nor Fe(III)-NTA in vitro. Prominent red fluorescent color was explicitly observed in and around the lumina of renal proximal tubules 1 h after an intraperitoneal injection of 10-35 mg iron/kg Fe-NTA, which was dose-dependent, according to semiquantitative analysis. The RhoNox-1 signal colocalized with the generation of hydroxyl radicals, as detected by hydroxyphenyl fluorescein (HPF). The results demonstrate the transformation of Fe(III)-NTA to Fe(II) in vivo in the Fe-NTA-induced renal carcinogenesis model. Therefore, this probe would be useful for localizing catalytic Fe(II) in studies using tissues. © 2014 Informa UK, Ltd.

    Iron is the most abundant metal in the human body and mainly works as a cofactor for proteins such as hemoglobin and various enzymes. No independent life forms on earth can survive without iron. However, excess iron is intimately associated with carcinogenesis by increasing oxidative stress via its catalytic activity to generate hydroxyl radicals. Biomolecules with redox-active sulfhydryl function(s) (thiol compounds) are necessary for the maintenance of mildly reductive cellular environments to counteract oxidative stress, and for the execution of redox reactions for metabolism and detoxification. Involvement of glutathione S-transferase and thioredoxin has long attracted the attention of cancer researchers. Here, I update recent findings on the involvement of iron and thiol compounds during carcinogenesis and in cancer cells. It is now recognized that the cystine/glutamate transporter (antiporter) is intimately associated with ferroptosis, an iron-dependent, non-apoptotic form of cell death, observed in cancer cells, and also with cancer stem cells; the former with transporter blockage but the latter with its stabilization. Excess iron in the presence of oxygen appears the most common known mutagen. Ironically, the persistent activation of antioxidant systems via genetic alterations in Nrf2 and Keap1 also contributes to carcinogenesis. Therefore, it is difficult to conclude the role of iron and thiol compounds as friends or foes, which depends on the quantity/distribution and induction/flexibility, respectively. Avoiding further mutation would be the most helpful strategy for cancer prevention, and myriad of efforts are being made to sort out the weaknesses of cancer cells. © 2014 Toyokuni.

    Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy, and clear cell adenocarcinoma of the ovary (OCCA), in particular, has a relatively poor prognosis among the ovarian cancer subtypes because of its high chemoresistance. Chromobox (CBX) 7 is a polycomb repressive complex 1 component that prolongs the lifespan of normal human cells by downregulating the INK4a/ARF expression which promotes cell-cycle progression. However, recent reports studying the relationship between CBX7 expression and patient survival have differed regarding the tumor cell origins, and the precise role of CBX7 in human carcinomas remains obscure. In this study, we analyzed CBX7 expression by immunohistochemistry in 81 OCCA patients and evaluated its association with their clinical outcomes. Both the overall and progression-free survival rates of the CBX7-positive patients were significantly shorter than those of the CBX7-negative patients (p < 0.05). CBX7 knockdown experiments using two OCCA cell lines, TOV21G and KOC-7C, revealed that cell viability was significantly reduced compared to the control cells (p < 0.001). Expression microarray analysis revealed that apoptosis-related genes, particularly tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), were significantly upregulated in CBX7 knockdown cells (p < 0.01). We further confirmed that CBX7 knockdown resulted in TRAIL-induced apoptosis in the OCCA cells. Thus, in this study, we showed for the first time that CBX7 was associated with a decreased OCCA prognosis. We also successfully demonstrated that the TRAIL pathway is a novel target for CBX7 expression modulation in these cells, and therapeutic agents utilizing the TRAIL pathway may be particularly effective for targeted OCCA therapy. What's new? Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy, with clear celladenocarcinoma of the ovary (OCCA) having a particularly poor prognosis due to high chemoresistance. Chromobox homolog 7 (CBX7) is a polycomb group transcriptional repressor whose role in human cancer remains controversial. Here, the authors showed for the first time that CBX7 expression is related to worse prognosis in OCCA. Furthermore, knockdown of CBX7 in vitro induced apoptosis in OCCA cell lines, possibly via regulation of the TRAIL-pathway. The findings thus indicate CBX7 as a good prognostic marker, andthe TRAIL-pathway as a potential target for OCCA diagnosis and therapy. © 2013 UICC.

    Recent reports have indicated human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) to be associated with human glioblastoma carcinogenesis. In established examples of viral carcinogenesis, viral DNA and one or more of its products have been detected in most tumor cells of biopsies in the majority of cases. To test whether HCMV is associated with human glioblastoma based on this criterion, we measured the number of viral DNA molecules per cell in both frozen and paraffin-embedded tumor biopsies from 58 patients using real-time quantitative PCR (QPCR). Immunohistochemical and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to detect HCMV proteins and genome was performed in 10 cases using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded glioblastoma tissues. Southern blotting using DNA extracted from four glioblastoma cell lines together with immunoblotting using the four cell lines and five glioblastoma tissue samples were also performed. We further confirmed the immunoblot bands using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry assay. As a result, HCMV DNA was not detected in the tumor cells from any of the glioblastoma cases by QPCR detecting two different HCMV genes, in clear contrast to samples from patients with HCMV infection. Southern blotting and immunoblotting of cell lines and FISH using paraffin sections were all negative. However, immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry using tissue samples were partly positive, but HCMV proteins were not detected by proteomic analysis, suggesting false positivity of the analyses. As our QPCR analysis could detect 10 copies of HCMV DNA mixed with DNA extracted from 10 4 HCMV-negative cells, we conclude that HCMV is not persistent, at least in the tumor cells, of developed human glioblastoma. © 2014 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved.

    Macrophage infiltration of skin GVHD lesions correlates directly with disease severity, but the mechanisms underlying this relationship remain unclear and GVHD with many macrophages is a therapeutic challenge. Here, we characterize the macrophages involved in GVHD and report that dexamethasone palmitate (DP), a liposteroid, can ameliorate such GVHD by inhibiting macrophage functions. We found that host-derived macrophages could exacerbate GVHD in a mouse model through expression of higher levels of pro-inflammatory TNF-α and IFN-γ, and lower levels of anti-inflammatory IL-10 than resident macrophages in mice without GVHD. DP significantly decreased the viability and migration capacity of primary mouse macrophages compared to conventional dexamethasone in vitro. DP treatment on day 7 and day 14 decreased macrophage number, and attenuated GVHD score and subsequent mortality in a murine model. This is the first study to provide evidence that therapy for GVHD should be changed on the basis of infiltrating cell type. © 2014 Nishiwaki et al.

    Molecular hydrogen (H2) scavenges hydroxyl radicals. Recently, H2 has been reported to prevent a variety of diseases associated with oxidative stress in model systems and in humans. Here, we studied the effects of H2 on rat fetal hippocampal damage caused by ischemia and reperfusion (IR) on day 16 of pregnancy with the transient occlusion of the bilateral utero-ovarian arteries. Starting 2 days before the operation, we provided the mothers with hydrogen-saturated water ad libitum until vaginal delivery. We observed a significant increase in the concentration of H 2 in the placenta after the oral administration of hydrogen-saturated water to the mothers, with less placental oxidative damage after IR in the presence of H2. Neonatal growth retardation was observed in the IR group, which was alleviated by the H2 administration. We analyzed the neuronal cell damage in the CA1 and CA3 areas of the hippocampus at day 7 after birth by immunohistochemical analysis of the 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2.©2014 ElsevierInc.Allrightsreserved.

    Mucinous tumors of the ovary are frequently associated with mature cystic teratomas, and it has been speculated that the mucinous tumors arise from teratoma components. The cellular origins of mature cystic teratomas are believed to be post-meiotic ovarian germ cells, and the analysis of microsatellite markers such as short tandem repeats is suitable for determining the cellular origin of tumors. In this study, we analyzed 3 ovarian mature cystic teratomas, all of which were associated with simultaneous ovarian mucinous tumors within the same ovary. Two of the 3 mucinous tumors were intestinal-type and the other was endocervical type. A laser capture microdissection technique was used to separate the epithelial component of the mucinous tumor, the components of the mature cystic teratoma, and control ovarian somatic tissue. Using short tandem repeat analysis based on 6 markers (D20S480, D6S2439, D6S1056, D9S1118, D4S2639, and D17S1290), we could distinguish the germ cell (homozygous) or somatic (heterozygous) origin of a given component in each sample. The epithelial components of the intestinal-type mucinous tumors in cases 1 and 2 were homozygous, and the epithelial component in case 3 (endocervical type) was heterozygous. All teratomatous components were homozygous, and the control components were heterozygous. In addition, we analyzed 3 mature cystic teratomas without mucinous tumors, and all 3 were homozygous in the tumor component. Our data suggest that the origin of mucinous tumors in the ovary may differ among histological subtypes, and intestinal-type mucinous tumors may arise from mature cystic teratomas, although endocervical-type mucinous tumors may not. © 2014 Elsevier Inc.

    Asbestos was abundantly used in industry during the last century. Currently, asbestos confers a heavy social burden due to an increasing number of patients with malignant mesothelioma ( MM), which develops after a long incubation period. Many studies have been conducted on the effects of the asbestos types that were most commonly used for commercial applications. However, there are few studies describing the effects of the less common types, or minor asbestos. We performed a rat carcinogenesis study using Japanese tremolite and Afghan anthophyllite. Whereas more than 50% of tremolite fibers had a diameter of &lt; 500 nm, only a small fraction of anthophyllite fibers had a diameter of &lt; 500 nm. We intraperitoneally injected 1 or 10 mg of asbestos into F1 Fischer-344/Brown-Norway rats. In half of the animals, repeated intraperitoneal injections of nitrilotriacetate (NTA), an iron chelator to promote Fenton reaction, were performed to evaluate the potential involvement of iron overload. Tremolite induced MM with a high incidence (96% with 10 mg; 52% with 1 mg), and males were more susceptible than females. Histology was confirmed using immunohistochemistry, and most MMs were characterized as the sarcomatoid or biphasic subtype. Unexpectedly NTA showed an inhibitory effect in females. In contrast, anthophyllite induced no MM after an observation period of 550 days. The results suggest that the carcinogenicity of anthophyllite is weaker than formerly reported, whereas that of tremolite is as potent as major asbestos as compared with our previous data.

    Few people expected that asbestos, a fibrous mineral, would be carcinogenic to humans. In fact, asbestos is a definite carcinogen in humans, causing a rare but aggressive cancer called malignant mesothelioma (MM). Mesothelial cells line the three somatic cavities and thus do not face the outer surface, but reduce the friction among numerous moving organs. MM has several characteristics: extremely long incubation period of 30-40 years after asbestos exposure, difficulty in clinical diagnosis at an early stage, and poor prognosis even under the current multimodal therapies. In Japan, 'Kubota shock' attracted considerable social attention in 2005 for asbestos-induced mesothelioma and, thereafter, the government enacted a law to provide the people suffering from MM a financial allowance. Several lines of recent evidence suggest that the major pathology associated with asbestos-induced MM is local iron overload, associated with asbestos exposure. Preclinical studies to prevent MM after asbestos exposure with iron reduction are in progress. In addition, novel target genes in mesothelial carcinogenesis have been discovered with recently recognized mesothelioma-prone families. Development of an effective preventive strategy is eagerly anticipated because of the long incubation period for MM. © W. S. Maney & Son Ltd 2014.

    The main determinant of glioblastoma (GBM) resistance to temozolomide (TMZ) is thought to be O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), which is a DNA-repair enzyme that removes alkyl groups from the O6-position of guanine. Previously, we reported that a MGMT-siRNA/cationic liposome complex exerted a clear synergistic antitumor effect in combination with TMZ. Translation to a clinical setting might be desirable for reinforcing the efficacy of TMZ therapy for GBM. In this study, we aim to evaluate the safety of MGMT-siRNA/cationic liposome complexes and determine whether the convection-enhanced delivery of these complexes is suitable for clinical use by undertaking preclinical testing in laboratory animals. No significant adverse events were observed in rats receiving infusions of MGMT-siRNA/cationic liposome complex directly into the brain with or without TMZ administration. A pig which received the complex administered by CED also showed no evidence of neurological dysfunction or histological abnormalities. However, the complex did not appear to achieve effective distribution by CED in either the rat or the porcine brain tissue. Considering these results together, we concluded that insufficient distribution of cationic liposomes was achieved for tumor treatment by CED.

    【はじめに,目的】脳梗塞の後遺症に苦しむ患者数の増大から,脳梗塞の予防的介入が重要視されている。動物実験では,脳梗塞発症前に一定期間運動を行うことで,脳梗塞後の運動機能障害が軽減し,脳梗塞体積も減少するという報告がなされている(Wang RY. et al., 2001)。この作用機序について,我々の研究室では脳梗塞の二次的傷害の主要な要因である酸化ストレスに着目し,脳梗塞発症前に運動を行うことで酸化ストレス産物(8-OHdG,4-HNE修飾タンパク)の生成が軽減されることを報告し,酸化ストレス抑制の関連を示唆した(Hamakawa M. et al., 2013)。しかし,この酸化ストレス抑制の機序は明らかになっていない。そこで,本研究では脳内の主要な抗酸化ストレス物質の1つであるsuperoxide dismutase(SOD)に着目し,事前の運動による脳梗塞障害軽減効果の作用機序を検討することを目的とする。【方法】実験動物にはWistar系雄性ラット(5週齢)を用いた。無作為にSham群(n=6),運動+sham群(n=6),脳梗塞群(n=8),運動+脳梗塞群(n=12)の4群に分け,運動+sham群と運動+脳梗塞群は3週間のトレッドミル運動(15m/min,30分/日)を毎日行った。Sham群と脳梗塞群は走行させずにトレッドミル装置内に曝露させた。3週間後,脳梗塞群と運動+脳梗塞群に対し,小泉法により90分間左中大脳動脈を閉塞することで脳梗塞モデル作成手術を施した。手術24時間後に,感覚-運動機能に関し,麻痺の重症度の評価としてneurological deficits(ND)を,前肢の感覚運動機能の評価としてlimb placing test(LP)を,前肢の協調運動機能の評価としてladder testを,歩行時のバランス能力の評価としてbeam walking test(BW)を行った。その直後に脳梗塞周囲の大脳皮質感覚運動野を採取し,SOD-Assay kit-WST(同仁化学研究所)を用いてSOD活性を測定した。また,SODの遺伝子発現について,real-time PCR法によりSOD1(Cu,Zn-SOD),SOD2(Mn-SOD),SOD3(EC-SOD)のmRNA発現量を定量化した。統計学的解析はSPSS ver. 16.0を用い,感覚-運動機能評価に関しND,LP,BWについてはMann-Whitney U testを,ladder testについてはStudent's t-testを行った。また,SOD活性,SOD1,2,3の遺伝子発現については一元配置分散分析にて比較し,事後検定としてTukey's testを行った。統計学的検定における有意水準は5%未満とした。【倫理的配慮,説明と同意】本研究における前処置は名古屋大学動物実験指針に従って実施した。【結果】運動+脳梗塞群は脳梗塞群に比べて,ND,LP,ladder testにおいて有意に障害が軽度であった(<i>p</i><0.05)。一方でBWでは群間に有意差は認められなかった。またSOD活性は,運動+脳梗塞群が脳梗塞群に比べ有意に高値を示した(<i>p</i><0.05)。さらにSOD1は,運動+脳梗塞群が脳梗塞群に比べ有意に発現が高かった(<i>p</i><0.05)。SOD2,3は群間に有意差は認められなかった。【考察】脳梗塞モデル作成前に3週間のトレッドミル運動を行うことで,脳梗塞後の感覚-運動機能障害が軽減することが示された。またSOD活性およびSOD1発現量の増加が示された。これらの結果より,事前に運動を行うことは,脳梗塞時のSOD発現,活性が促進され,虚血/再灌流により生じる大量の活性酸素を迅速に消去し,酸化ストレスを抑制する作用があると考えられる。よって,脳梗塞発症前の運動が及ぼす障害軽減効果には,SODの抗酸化ストレス能に伴う神経保護作用が関与していることが示唆された。【理学療法学研究としての意義】脳梗塞発症前の運動による脳梗塞障害軽減効果の作用機序の一端を分子生物学的に示した。これらの結果は,脳梗塞の予防として推奨されている運動の効果を科学的に検討し,予防医療分野における理学療法のさらなる発展に寄与するものと考える。

    Novel materials are often commercialized without a complete assessment of the risks they pose to human health because such assessments are costly and time-consuming; additionally, sometimes the methodology needed for such an assessment does not exist. Carbon nanotubes have the potential for widespread application in engineering, materials science and medicine. However, due to the needle-like shape and high durability of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), concerns have been raised that they may induce asbestos-like pathogenicity when inhaled. Indeed, experiments in rodents supported this hypothesis. Notably, the genetic alterations in MWCNT-induced rat malignant mesothelioma were similar to those induced by asbestos. Single-walled CNTs (SWCNTs) cause mitotic disturbances in cultured cells, but thus far, there has been no report that SWCNTs are carcinogenic. This review summarizes the recent noteworthy publications on the genotoxicity and carcinogenicity of CNTs and explains the possible molecular mechanisms responsible for this carcinogenicity. The nanoscale size and needle-like rigid structure of CNTs appear to be associated with their pathogenicity in mammalian cells, where carbon atoms are major components in the backbone of many biomolecules. Publishing adverse events associated with novel materials is critically important for alerting people exposed to such materials. CNTs still have a bright future with superb economic and medical merits. However, appropriate regulation of the production, distribution and secondary manufacturing processes is required, at least to protect the workers. © 2013 Elsevier B.V.

    Asbestos was used worldwide in huge quantities in the past century. However, because of the unexpected carcinogenicity to mesothelial cells with an extremely long incubation period, many countries face this long-lasting social problem. Mesothelioma is often diagnosed in an advanced stage, for which no effective therapeutic protocols are yet established. We previously reported on the basis of animal experiments that the major pathology in asbestos-induced mesothelial carcinogenesis is local iron overload. Here, we undertook to find an effective strategy to prevent, delay, or lower the malignant potential of mesothelioma during asbestos-induced carcinogenesis. We used intraperitoneal injections of crocidolite to rats. We carried out a 16-week study to seek the maximal-tolerated intervention for iron reduction via oral deferasirox administration or intensive phlebotomy. Splenic iron deposition was significantly decreased with either method, and we found that Perls' iron staining in spleen is a good indicator for iron reduction. We injected a total of 10 mg crocidolite at the age of six weeks, and the preventive measures were via repeated oral administration of 25 to 50 mg/kg/d deferasirox or weekly to bimonthly phlebotomy of 4 to 10 mL/kg/d. The animals were observed until 110 weeks. Deferasirox administration significantly increased the fraction of less malignant epithelioid subtype. Although we found a slightly prolonged survival in deferasirox-treated female rats, larger sample size and refinement of the current protocol are necessary to deduce the cancer-preventive effects of deferasirox. Still, our results suggest deferasirox serves as a potential preventive strategy in people already exposed to asbestos via iron reduction. ©2013 AACR.

    Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have attracted public attention not only for their potential applications in engineering and materials science but also for possible environmental risks. MWCNTs share similar properties with asbestos, a definite human carcinogen causing malignant mesothelioma (MM), in that they are both biopersistent thin fibers with a high aspect ratio. Certain types of MWCNTs do induce MM in animal experiments. Though there are many different types of MWCNTs awaiting use in industry, there is little evidence about what types of MWCNTs present a high risk for MMin vivo. We have previously shown that the diameter of MWCNTs is one of the critical factors for mesothelial injury, which eventually leads to MM. Because of the extensive commercial use of MWCNTs, the properties of MWCNTs that determine carcinogenic activity should be clarified. Here we report that a high dose (10mg) of a tangled form of pristine MWCNT (with a diameter of 15nm) did not induce MM after intraperitoneal administration in rats, which were followed for up to 3 years after injection. This observation strengthens our previous finding that the rigidity, diameter, length and surface properties of MWCNTs are important factors in MM induction in vivo. © 2013 Japanese Society of Pathology and Wiley Publishing Asia Pty Ltd.

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM), which is associated with asbestos exposure, is one of the most deadly tumors in humans. Early MM is concealed in the serosal cavities and lacks specific clinical symptoms. For better treatment, early detection and prognostic markers are necessary. Recently, CD146 and insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 3 (IMP3) were reported as possible positive markers of MM to distinguish from reactive mesothelia in humans. However, their application on MM of different species and its impact on survival remain to be elucidated. To disclose the utility of these molecules as early detection and prognostic markers of MM, we injected chrysotile or crocidolite intraperitoneally to rats, thus obtaining 26 peritoneal MM and establishing 11 cell lines. We immunostained CD146 and IMP3 using paraffin-embedded tissues and cell blocks and found CD146 and IMP3 expression in 58% (15/26) and 65% (17/26) of MM, respectively, but not in reactive mesothelia. There was no significant difference in both immunostainings for overexpression among the three histological subtypes of MM and the expression of CD146 and IMP3 was proportionally associated. Furthermore, the overexpression of CD146 and/or IMP3 was proportionally correlated with shortened survival. These results suggest that CD146 and IMP3 are useful diagnostic and prognostic markers of MM. © 2013 Japanese Cancer Association.

    Expression and implication of carbohydrate antigens in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) in oral cavity was examined. In the cell lines, type 2H and Lewis y antigens were markedly expressed. In the tissues from SCC patients and benign disorders, type 2H was highly expressed in hyperplasia (96.4 %), displasia (92.9 %) and SCC (100 %). Lewis y was, in turn, expressed mainly in cancer tissues (91.3 %), suggesting that Lewis y is a cancer-associated antigen. Normal oral mucosa showed no expression of these blood group antigens. Surprisingly, Lewis y antigen disappeared in the invasion sites where Ki-67 was definitely stained. Over-expression of Lewis y with manipulation of a fucosyltransferase cDNA resulted in suppression of cell growth and invasion, and knockdown of Lewis y also brought about increased cell growth and invasion. In either situations, no changes in the expression of sialyl-Lewis x could be found. Lowered tumor growth and invasion into surrounding tissues were also shown in Lewis y-positive SCC grafts in nu/nu mice. All these results together with alternative staining between Lewis y and Ki-67 in cancer tissues and FUT1 transfectants suggested that loss of Lewis y is a crucial event for the late stage of SCCs. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media New York.

    Exposure to asbestos fibers increases the risk of mesothelioma in humans. One hypothetical carcinogenic mechanism is that asbestos fibers may directly induce mutations in mesothelial cells. Although the uptake of asbestos fibers by mesothelial cells is recognized, methods for the quantification of the uptake have not been well established. In the present study, we evaluated two distinct methods, using crocidolite fibers and MeT5A mesothelial cells. One method is histological evaluation using the cell-block technique, which allows for the direct cross-sectional observation of cells and fibers. We found the bright field observation with ×1000 magnification (oil-immersion) of the sample with Kemechtrot staining was most suitable for this purpose. The other method is flow cytometric analysis, which permits the evaluation of a much larger number of cells. We observed that the side scatter (SSC) increased with the intracellular fibers, and that the "mean SSC ratio (treated/control)" was useful for quantification. We could collect the cells with abundant internalized crocidolite fibers by sorting. Results of the two methodologies were correlated well in the experiments. The quantities of internalized fibers increased with incubation time and loaded dosage, but they were inversely associated with cellular density in culture. © 2013 JCBN.

    Long-term exercise prior to brain ischemia enhances the activities of antioxidant enzymes and leads to a significant reduction in brain damage and neurological deficits in rats subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion. However, it has not been established whether relatively short-term exercise generates similar results following middle cerebral artery occlusion. We aimed to determine whether short-term exercise could reduce oxidative damage and prevent sensori-motor dysfunction. Male Wistar rats were subjected to perform daily exercise on a treadmill for 30 min at a speed of 15 m/min for 3 weeks, followed by a 90-min middle cerebral artery occlusion. Animals were assessed after middle cerebral artery occlusion for neurological deficits and sensori-motor function. Brain tissues were processed to evaluate infarct volume and oxidative damage. Oxidative stress was assessed using immunohistochemistry for 4-hydroxy-2-nonenalmodified proteins and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine. Antioxidant enzymes were evaluated using immunohistochemistry for thioredoxin and activity assay for superoxide dismutase. Exercise for 3 weeks decreased the severity of paralysis and impairment in forelimb motor coordination. Furthermore, exercise had effect on superoxide dismutase and reduced the infarct volume and the number of cells immunopositive for 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine. Our results suggest that pre-conditioning treadmill exercise for 3 weeks is useful for ameliorating ischemia-induced brain injury. © 2013 JCBN.

    Clear cell adenocarcinoma of the ovary (OCC) is a chemo-resistant tumor with a relatively poor prognosis and is frequently associated with endometriosis. Although it is assumed that oxidative stress plays some role in the malignant transformation of this tumor, the characteristic molecular events leading to carcinogenesis remain unknown. In this study, an array-based comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analysis revealed Met gene amplification in 4/13 OCC primary tumors and 2/8 OCC cell lines. Amplification of the AKT2 gene, which is a downstream component of the Met/PI3K signaling pathway, was also observed in 5/21 samples by array-based CGH analysis. In one patient, both the Met and AKT2 genes were amplified. These findings were confirmed using fluorescence in situ hybridization, real-time quantitative PCR, immunoblotting, and immunohistochemistry. In total, 73 OCC cases were evaluated using real-time quantitative PCR; 37.0% demonstrated Met gene amplification (>4 copies), and 8.2% had AKT2 amplification. Furthermore, stage 1 and 2 patients with Met gene amplification had significantly worse survival than patients without Met gene amplification (p<0.05). Met knockdown by shRNA resulted in reduced viability of OCC cells with Met amplification due to increased apoptosis and cellular senescence, suggesting that the Met signaling pathway plays an important role in OCC carcinogenesis. Thus, we believe that targeted inhibition of the Met pathway may be a promising treatment for OCC. © 2013 Yamashita et al.

    Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-1 inhibitor has been suggested to attenuate the ischemia-reperfusion injury. We investigated the protective effect of the cardioplegia with a PARP-1 inhibitor, 4-hydoxyquinazoline (4-HQ), against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Isolated rat hearts were perfused on a Langendorff apparatus and cardioplegically arrested for 90 min by perfusion with St. Thomas' Hospital solution (ST-solution). In the Group ST (n = 8), the hearts were arrested with the ST-solution alone. The Group HQ (n = 8) were treated with the ST-solution containing 4-HQ (10 μM) for cardioplegia. During reperfusion, the Group HQ showed significantly greater functional recovery of +dp/dtmax (p = 0.005) and lower enzymatic leakage (p < 0.01). NAD+ levels were also preserved higher in the Group HQ (p < 0.01). Immunohistochemical study revealed lesser extents of oxidative stress and apoptosis, in the Group HQ. Thus, addition of 4-HQ in the cardioplegia may provide a new intervention for myocardial protection against ischemia-reperfusion injury by decreasing NAD+ consumption and suppressing oxidative stress. © 2013 Informa UK, Ltd.

    Mesothelial cells, which have diverse roles in physiology and pathology, constitute the mesothelium along with connective tissue and the basement membrane; the mesothelium serves to shield the somatic cavities. After mesothelial injury, mesothelial cells undergo tissue recovery. However, the mechanism of mesothelial regeneration remains poorly understood. In this study, we used confocal time-lapse microscopy to demonstrate that transformed mesothelial cells (MeT5A) and mouse peritoneal mesothelial cells can randomly migrate between cells in cell culture and in ex vivo tissue culture, respectively. Moreover, peritoneal mesothelial cells changed their morphology from a flattened shape to a cuboidal one prior to the migration. Conversely, MDCKII epithelial cells forming tight cell-cell contacts with one another do not alter the arrangement of adjacent cells during movement. Our evidence complements the current hypotheses of mesothelial regeneration and suggests that certain types of differentiated mesothelial cells undergo morphological changes before initiating migration to repair injured sites.

    1981年以降,日本人死因の第1位はがんである。喫煙や特定の感染症が発がんリスクとして同定された。しかし,産業・経済を重視するあまり,リスク評価が十分になされず,ナノマテリアルが社会に多量に持ち込まれ,がんの原因となったことも忘れてはならない。それが繊維状鉱物のアスベストであり白石綿・青石綿・茶石綿が使用された。日本では2006年に禁止となったが,アジアの諸国やロシアなどでは今も使用されている。日本の中皮腫発生ピークは2025年で今後40年間に10万人以上の方が中皮腫で死亡すると試算されている。ラットを使用して上記3種の石綿で,腹腔内10mg投与により中皮腫発がん実験を行った。2年の経過でほぼ全動物に中皮腫が発生した。石綿投与に伴い,同部の中皮細胞や貪食細胞に著明な鉄沈着を認め,Fenton反応促進性のニトリロ三酢酸の追加投与でどの石綿でも中皮腫発生が早くなった。93%の腫瘍でCdkn2A/2Bのホモ欠損を認めた。アスベスト発がんでは局所の過剰鉄病態が重要なことが示唆された。このような背景のもと,すでに中皮腫の危険性の報告のあった多層カーボンナノチューブ(CNT)の評価を行った。CNTは軽量・高強度で熱伝導性が高く導体・半導体になることからすでに電池・液晶パネルのマテリアルとして使用されているが,形状は石綿に酷似している。直径が15/50/115/150nmのCNTを使用し中皮細胞毒性実験と上記と同様のラットを使用した発がん実験を行った。中皮細胞への毒性と発がん性はほぼ一致し,50nmの発がん性が最も高かった。Cdkn2A/2Bのホモ欠損をほぼ全例で認めた。このことは,剛性が高い50nm直径のCNTは特に注意して扱うべきことを示唆している。一方,石綿はendocytosisで中皮細胞に取り込まれるが,CNTは突き刺さり入ることも明らかになった。ヒトで体腔に繊維が到達することはそう簡単ではないと考えられるが,ますます長寿化が進む現在,十分なリスク評価が必要と考えられる。&nbsp; <br>

    【はじめに、目的】脳梗塞発症時には活性酸素やフリーラジカルが大量に産生され、その酸化ストレスは組織障害を拡大させ脳梗塞を増悪させる因子である。一方で、健常なラットに長期間運動させると、脳内で抗酸化物質が増加し酸化ストレスの減少がもたらされることが報告されており、運動は脳内の抗酸化作用を高めることが示されている。また、先行研究では脳梗塞モデルラット作成前に一定期間の運動を行うと、運動していないラットに比べて、脳梗塞後の梗塞体積が減少し運動機能障害も軽減するといった脳梗塞障害軽減効果が報告されている。しかし、この運動により高まる脳内の抗酸化作用が、脳梗塞時の酸化ストレスに影響を及ぼしているかどうかは不明である。そこで本研究では、脳梗塞発症前の運動による脳梗塞障害軽減効果およびその作用機序を、脳内の抗酸化作用に着目して検討することを目的とする。【方法】実験動物にはWistar系雄性ラット(5 週齢)を用いた。無作為に(1)Sham群、(2)運動+sham群、(3)脳梗塞群、(4)運動+脳梗塞群に分け、脳梗塞+運動群と運動+sham群は3 週間のトレッドミル運動(15 m/min,30 分/日)を毎日行った。脳梗塞群とSham群は走行させずにトレッドミル装置内に暴露させた(1 日30 分間)。3 週間後、運動+脳梗塞群と脳梗塞群に対し、小泉法による脳梗塞モデル作成手術を施行した。手術24 時間後に、運動-感覚機能評価として、麻痺の重症度を評価するneurological deficits(ND)、歩行時のバランス能力の評価としてbeam walking(BW)、はしごの上の歩行における前肢の協調運動機能の評価としてladder test、前肢の感覚運動機能の評価としてlimb placing(LP)を行った。その直後に脳を採取し、TTC染色により非梗塞半球体積に対する梗塞体積の割合を算出した。また、酸化ストレス関連指標として、脂質過酸化の指標である4-hydroxy-2-nonenal(4-HNE)とDNAの酸化的損傷の指標となる8-Hydroxydeoxyguanosine(8-OHdG)、抗酸化酵素であるthioredoxin(TRX)の免疫組織化学染色を行い、陽性細胞数及び光学濃度を計測した。またSOD Assay kit-WST(同仁化学研究所)を用いて抗酸化酵素であるsuperoxide dismutase(SOD)活性を計測した。【倫理的配慮、説明と同意】本研究における全処置は名古屋大学動物実験指針に従って実施した。【結果】運動+脳梗塞群は脳梗塞群に比べて、NDとladder testのスコアが低値となり有意に障害が軽度であった。LPとBWは群間に有意差は認められなかった。また、梗塞体積割合は運動+脳梗塞群の方が脳梗塞群よりも有意に小さかった。4-HNE 及び8-OHdG陽性細胞数は、運動+脳梗塞群の方が脳梗塞群に比べ有意に少なかった。一方、TRXの光学濃度は群間に有意な差は認められなかったが、SOD活性は運動+脳梗塞群が脳梗塞群に比べ高値を示す傾向にあった。【考察】脳梗塞モデル作成前に3 週間のトレッドミル運動を継続することで、脳梗塞後の麻痺の重症度および前肢の協調運動機能障害が軽減すること、梗塞体積が縮小すること、また脳梗塞時の脂質やDNAに対する酸化ストレスを抑制することが示された。さらに抗酸化酵素であるSOD活性が高められることが示された。これらの結果より、脳梗塞前の運動による脳梗塞の障害軽減効果には酸化ストレスの抑制とSODの活性化が関与していることが示唆された。【理学療法学研究としての意義】脳梗塞発症前の運動による脳梗塞障害軽減効果を行動学的、組織化学的に示した。加えて、運動による酸化ストレスの抑制と抗酸化作用の増加の関連も示され、その作用機序の一端を明らかにした。これらの結果は、脳梗塞の予防として推奨されている運動の効果を科学的に検討し、予防医療分野における理学療法のさらなる発展に寄与するものと考える。

    Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a highly aggressive neoplasm arising from the mesothelial cells lining the parietal pleura and it exhibits poor prognosis. Although there has been significant progress in MPM treatment, development of more efficient therapeutic approaches is needed. BMAL1 is a core component of the circadian clock machinery and its constitutive overexpression in MPM has been reported. Here, we demonstrate that BMAL1 may serve as a molecular target for MPM. The majority of MPM cell lines and a subset of MPM clinical specimens expressed higher levels of BMAL1 compared to a nontumorigenic mesothelial cell line (MeT-5A) and normal parietal pleural specimens, respectively. A serum shock induced a rhythmical BMAL1 expression change in MeT-5A but not in ACC-MESO-1, suggesting that the circadian rhythm pathway is deregulated in MPM cells. BMAL1 knockdown suppressed proliferation and anchorage-dependent and independent clonal growth in two MPM cell lines (ACC-MESO-1 and H290) but not in MeT-5A. Notably, BMAL1 depletion resulted in cell cycle disruption with a substantial increase in apoptotic and polyploidy cell population in association with downregulation of Wee1, cyclin B and p21WAF1/CIP1 and upregulation of cyclin E expression. BMAL1 knockdown induced mitotic catastrophe as denoted by disruption of cell cycle regulators and induction of drastic morphological changes including micronucleation and multiple nuclei in ACC-MESO-1 cells that expressed the highest level of BMAL1. Taken together, these findings indicate that BMAL1 has a critical role in MPM and could serve as an attractive therapeutic target for MPM. Copyright © 2012 UICC.

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM) shows frequent inactivation of the neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2)-tumor-suppressor gene. Recent studies have documented that the Hippo signaling pathway, a downstream cascade of Merlin (a product of NF2), has a key role in organ size control and carcinogenesis by regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis. We previously reported that MMs show overexpression of Yes-associated protein (YAP) transcriptional coactivator, the main downstream effector of the Hippo signaling pathway, which results from the inactivation of NF2, LATS2 and/or SAV1 genes (the latter two encoding core components of the mammalian Hippo pathway) or amplification of YAP itself. However, the detailed roles of YAP remain unclear, especially the target genes of YAP that enhance MM cell growth and survival. Here, we demonstrated that YAP-knockdown inhibited cell motility, invasion and anchorage-independent growth as well as cell proliferation of MM cells in vitro. We analyzed genes commonly regulated by YAP in three MM cell lines with constitutive YAP-activation, and found that the major subsets of YAP-upregulating genes encode cell cycle regulators. Among them, YAP directly induced the transcription of CCND1 and FOXM1, in cooperation with TEAD transcription factor. We also found that knockdown of CCND1 and FOXM1 suppressed MM cell proliferation, although the inhibitory effects were less evident than those of YAP knockdown. These results indicate that constitutive YAP activation in MM cells promotes cell cycle progression giving more aggressive phenotypes to MM cells. © 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved.

    The inhalation of asbestos is a risk factor for the development of malignant mesothelioma and lung cancer. Based on the broad surface area of asbestos fibers and their ability to enter the cytoplasm and nuclei of cells, it was hypothesized that proteins that adsorb onto the fiber surface play a role in the cytotoxicity and carcinogenesis of asbestos fibers. However, little is known about which proteins adsorb onto asbestos. Previously, we systematically identified asbestos-interacting proteins and classified them into eight sub-categories: chromatin/nucleotide/RNA-binding proteins, ribosomal proteins, cytoprotective proteins, cytoskeleton-associated proteins, histones and hemoglobin. Here, we report an adsorption profile of proteins for the three commercially used asbestos compounds: chrysotile, crocidolite and amosite. We quantified the amounts of adsorbed proteins by analyzing the silver-stained gels of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with ImageJ software, using the bands for amosite as a standard. We found that histones were most adsorptive to crocidolite and that chromatin-binding proteins were most adsorptive to chrysotile. The results suggest that chrysotile and crocidolite directly interact with chromatin structure through different mechanisms. Furthermore, RNA-binding proteins preferably interacted with chrysotile, suggesting that chrysotile may interfere with transcription and translation. Our results provide novel evidence demonstrating that the specific molecular interactions leading to carcinogenesis are different between chrysotile and crocidolite. ©2012 JCBN.

    Exposure to asbestos is a risk for malignant mesothelioma (MM) in humans. Among the commercially used types of asbestos (chrysotile, crocidolite, and amosite), the carcinogenicity of chrysotile is not fully appreciated. Here, we show that all three asbestos types similarly induced MM in the rat peritoneal cavity and that chrysotile caused the earliest mesothelioma development with a high fraction of sarcomatoid histology. The pathogenesis of chrysotile-induced mesothelial carcinogenesis was closely associated with iron overload: repeated administration of an iron chelator, nitrilotriacetic acid, which promotes the Fenton reaction, significantly reduced the period required for carcinogenesis; massive iron deposition was found in the peritoneal organs with high serum ferritin; and homozygous deletion of the CDKN2A/2B/ARF tumour suppressor genes, the most frequent genomic alteration in human MM and in iron-induced rodent carcinogenesis, was observed in 92.6% of the cases studied with array-based comparative genomic hybridization. The induced rat MM cells revealed high expression of mesoderm-specific transcription factors, Dlx5 and Hand1, and showed an iron regulatory profile of active iron uptake and utilization. These data indicate that chrysotile is a strong carcinogen when exposed to mesothelia, acting through the induction of local iron overload. Therefore, an intervention to remove local excess iron might be a strategy to prevent MM after asbestos exposure. Copyright © 2012 Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland.

    Milk provides a well-balanced source of amino acids and other ingredients. One of the functional ingredients in milk is lactoferrin (LF). LF presents a wide variety of bioactivities and functions as a radical scavenger in models using iron-ascorbate complexes and asbestos. Human clinical trials of oral LF administration for the prevention of colon polyps have been successful and demonstrated that dietary compounds exhibit direct interactions. However, antioxidative properties of LF in distant organs require further investigation. To study the antioxidant property of LF, we employed bovine lactoferrin (bLF) using the rat model of ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)-induced renal tubular oxidative injury. We fed rats with bLF (0.05%, w/w) in basal chow for 4 weeks and sacrificed them after Fe-NTA treatment. After intraperitoneal administration of 9.0 mg iron/kg Fe-NTA for 4 and 24 h, bLF pretreatment suppressed elevation of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels. In addition, we observed protective effects against renal oxidative tubular damage and maintenance of antioxidant enzyme activities in the bLF-pretreated group. We thus demonstrated the antioxidative effect of bLF against Fe-NTA-induced renal oxidative injury. These results suggest that LF intake is useful for the prevention of renal tubular oxidative damage mediated by iron. ©2012 JCBN.

    The emergence of nanotechnology represents an important milestone, as it opens the way to a broad spectrum of applications for nanomaterials in the fields of engineering, industry and medicine. One example of nanomaterials that have the potential for widespread use is carbon nanotubes, which have a tubular structure made of graphene sheets. However, there have been concerns that they may pose a potential health risk due to their similarities to asbestos, namely their high biopersistence and needle-like structure. We recently found that despite these similarities, carbon nanotubes and asbestos differ in certain aspects, such as their mechanism of entry into mesothelial cells. In the study, we showed that non-functionalized, multi-walled carbon nanotubes enter mesothelial cells by directly piercing through the cell membrane in a diameter- and rigidity-dependent manner, whereas asbestos mainly enters these cells through the process of endocytosis, which is independent of fiber diameter. In this review, we discuss the key differences, as well as similarities, between asbestos fibers and carbon nanotubes. We also summarize previous reports regarding the mechanism of carbon nanotube entry into non-phagocytic cells. As the entry of fibers into mesothelial cells is a crucial step in mesothelial carcinogenesis, we believe that a comprehensive study on the differences by which carbon nanotubes and asbestos fibers enter into non-phagocytic cells will provide important clues for the safer manufacture of carbon nanotubes through strict regulation on fiber characteristics, such as diameter, surface properties, length and rigidity. © 2012 Japanese Cancer Association.

    Objective: To understand the role of ectopic endometriotic stromal cells in ovarian endometriosis (OEM) and the associated risks for infertility and carcinogenesis. Design: Analyses of secreted proteins and gene expression using immortalized eutopic/ectopic endometrial(-otic) stromal cells from OEM. Setting: University. Patient(s): Women with and without OEM. Intervention(s): Samples of endometrial(-otic) tissue from women with or without OEM. Main Outcome Measure(s): Immunohistochemical analysis of oxidative stress in OEM, gene expression profiles, and the identification of secreted proteins by mass spectrometry in immortalized endometrial(-otic) stromal cells. Result(s): 4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins and carboxymethyllysine were abundant in the stroma, rather than epithelia, of OEM patients, indicating the presence of oxidative stress. Immortalized ectopic endometriotic stromal cells exhibited high IRP1/IRP2/HIF-1β expression and contained lower amounts of iron and copper than their eutopic counterparts. Expression profiles, in combination with protein identification, revealed that complement component 3 (C3) and pentraxin-3 (PTX3) are the major proteins secreted from immortalized ectopic endometriotic stromal cells. Complement-3/PTX3 promoted the secretion of various cytokines by THP1 macrophage cells and thus supported M1 differentiation. Conclusion(s): Immortalized ectopic endometriotic stromal cells in OEM predominantly secrete C3 and PTX3 and exhibit a differential regulation of iron metabolism.

    Background: The role of ZEB1, a master epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition gene, in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is unclear. Methods: The expression of ZEB1, E-cadherin, vimentin, and epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) in 18 MPM cell lines and a normal pleural mesothelial cell line MeT-5A was determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot testing. RNA interference-mediated transient and/or stable knockdown of ZEB1 and EpCAM was performed. Microarray expression analysis was performed with a TORAY-3D gene chip. Growth was evaluated by colorimetric proliferation and colony formation assays. Luciferase reporter assay was performed to access the effects of ZEB1 knockdown on EpCAM promoter activity. Results: Most MPM cell lines exhibited mesenchymal phenotype and expressed ZEB1. Transient ZEB1 knockdown suppressed growth in all four cell lines studied (ACC-MESO-1, H2052, Y-MESO-8A, Y-MESO-29) while stable ZEB1 knockdown suppressed growth only in Y-MESO-29. Genome-wide gene expression analysis revealed that EpCAM was the most prominently up-regulated gene by both transient and stable ZEB1 knockdown in ACC-MESO-1, with more marked up-regulation in stable knockdown. We hypothesized that EpCAM up-regulation counteracts the stable ZEB1 knockdown-induced growth inhibition in ACC-MESO-1. Transient EpCAM knockdown suppressed growth dramatically in ACC-MESO-1 cells expressing shZEB1 but only modestly in those expressing shGFP, supporting our hypothesis. Luciferase reporter assay showed that ZEB1 knockdown resulted in increased EpCAM promoter activity. EpCAM was also up-regulated in Y-MESO-29 expressing shZEB1, but this EpCAM up-regulation did not counteract ZEB1knockdown-induced growth suppression, suggesting that the counteracting effects of EpCAM may be cellular context dependent. Conclusions: RNA interference-mediated ZEB1 knockdown may be a promising therapeutic strategy for MPM, but one has to consider the possibility of diminished growth inhibitory effects of long-term ZEB1 knockdown, possibly as a result of EpCAM up-regulation and/or other gene expression changes resulting from ZEB1 knockdown. © 2011 Society of Surgical Oncology.

    Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) and glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) are required to recapitulate spermatogonial stem cell (SSC) self-renewal in vitro. Although studies have revealed the role of the GDNF signaling pathway in SSCs, little is known about how FGF2 is involved. In the present study, we assessed the role of the FGF2 signaling pathway using a mouse germline stem (GS) cell culture system that allows in vitro expansion of SSCs. Adding GDNF or FGF2 induced phosphorylation of MAPK1/3, and adding the MAP2K1 inhibitor PD0325091 reduced GS cell proliferation and MAPK1/3 phosphorylation. Moreover, GS cells transfected with an activated form of Map2k1 not only upregulated Etv5 and Bcl6b gene expression, but also proliferated in an FGF2-independent manner, suggesting that they act downstream of MAP2K1 signaling to drive SSC self-renewal. Although GS cells transfected with Map2k1, Etv5 or Bcl6b showed normal spermatogonial markers, transplanting GS cells expressing Bcl6b into infertile mouse testes resulted in the formation of a germ cell tumor, suggesting that excessive self-renewal signals causes tumorigenic conversion. These results show that FGF2 depends on MAP2K1 signaling to drive SSC self-renewal via upregulation of the Etv5 and Bcl6b genes. © 2012. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd.

    Germ cell tumors (GCTs) are unique in that they exhibit diverse biological characteristics and pathological features. Although several in vivo GCT models are available, studies on GCTs are hampered because in vivo development of GCTs is time consuming and prevents a detailed molecular analysis of the transformation process. Here we developed a novel strategy to transform mouse testis cells in vitro. Lentivirus-mediated transfection of dominant negative Trp53, Myc, and activated Hras1 into a CD9-expressing testis cells caused tumorigenic conversion in vitro. Although these cells resembled embryonic stem (ES) cells, they were aneuploid and lacked Nanog expression, which is involved in the maintenance of the undifferentiated state in ES cells. Euploid ES-like cells were produced by transfecting the Yamanaka factors (Pou5f1, Myc, Klf4, and Sox2) into the same cell population. Although these cells expressed Nanog, they were distinct from ES cells in that they expressed CD44, a cancer stem cell antigen. Both treatments induced similar changes in the DNA methylation patterns in differentially methylated regions of imprinted genes. Moreover, despite the differences in their phenotype and karyotype, both cell types similarly produced mixed GCTs on transplantation, which were composed of teratomas, seminomas, and embryonal carcinomas. Thus, in vitro testis cell transformation facilitates an analysis of the GCT formation process, and our results also suggest the close similarity between GCT formation and reprogramming. © 2012 by the Society for the Study of Reproduction, Inc.

    In the tide of science nouveau after the completion of genome projects of various species, there appeared a movement to understand an organism as a system rather than the sum of cells directed for certain functions. With the advent and spread of microarray techniques, systematic and comprehensive genome-wide approaches have become reasonably possible and more required on the investigation of DNA damage and the subsequent repair. The immunoprecipitation- based technique combined with high-density microarrays or next-generation sequencing is one of the promising methods to provide access to such novel research strategies. Oxygen is necessary for most of the life on earth for electron transport. However, reactive oxygen species are inevitably generated, giving rise to steady-state levels of DNA damage in the genome, that may cause mutations leading to cancer, ageing and degenerative diseases. Previously, we showed that there are many factors involved in the genomic distribution of oxidatively generated DNA damage including chromosome territory, and proposed this sort of research area as oxygenomics. Recently, RNA is also recognized as a target of this kind of modification. © 2012 Informa UK, Ltd.

    Iron overload has been associated with carcinogenesis in humans. Intraperitoneal administration of ferric nitrilotriacetate initiates a Fenton reaction in renal proximal tubules of rodents that ultimately leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) after repeated treatments. We performed high-resolution microarray comparative genomic hybridization to identify characteristics in the genomic profiles of this oxidative stress-induced rat RCCs. The results revealed extensive large-scale genomic alterations with a preference for deletions. Deletions and amplifications were numerous and sometimes fragmented, demonstrating that a Fenton reaction is a cause of such genomic alterations in vivo. Frequency plotting indicated that two of the most commonly altered loci corresponded to a Cdkn2a/2b deletion and a Met amplification. Tumor sizes were proportionally associated with Met expression and/or amplification, and clustering analysis confirmed our results. Furthermore, we developed a procedure to compare whole genomic patterns of the copy number alterations among different species based on chromosomal syntenic relationship. Patterns of the rat RCCs showed the strongest similarity to the human RCCs among five types of human cancers, followed by human malignant mesothelioma, an iron overload-associated cancer. Therefore, an iron-dependent Fenton chemical reaction causes large-scale genomic alterations during carcinogenesis, which may result in distinct genomic profiles. Based on the characteristics of extensive genome alterations in human cancer, our results suggest that this chemical reaction may play a major role during human carcinogenesis. © 2012 Akatsuka et al.

    Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have the potential for widespread applications in engineering and materials science. However, because of their needle-like shape and high durability, concerns have been raised that MWCNTs may induce asbestos-like pathogenicity. Although recent studies have demonstrated that MWCNTs induce various types of reactivities, the physicochemical features of MWCNTs that determine their cytotoxicity and carcinogenicity in mesothelial cells remain unclear. Here, we showed that the deleterious effects of nonfunctionalized MWCNTs on human mesothelial cells were associated with their diameter-dependent piercing of the cell membrane. Thin MWCNTs (diameter ∼ 50 nm) with high crystallinity showed mesothelial cell membrane piercing and cytotoxicity in vitro and subsequent inflammogenicity and mesotheliomagenicity in vivo. In contrast, thick (diameter ∼ 150 nm) or tangled (diameter ∼ 2-20 nm) MWCNTs were less toxic, inflammogenic, and carcinogenic. Thin and thick MWCNTs similarly affected macrophages. Mesotheliomas induced by MWCNTs shared homozygous deletion of Cdkn2a/2b tumor suppressor genes, similar to mesotheliomas induced by asbestos. Thus, we propose that different degrees of direct mesothelial injury by thin and thick MWCNTs are responsible for the extent of inflammogenicity and carcinogenicity. This work suggests that control of the diameter of MWCNTs could reduce the potential hazard to human health.

    Lung cancers with neuroendocrine (NE) features are often very aggressive but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. The transcription factor ASH1/ASCL1 is a master regulator of pulmonary NE cell development that is involved in the pathogenesis of lung cancers with NE features (NE-lung cancers). Here we report the definition of the microRNA miR-375 as a key downstream effector of ASH1 function in NE-lung cancer cells. miR-375 was markedly induced by ASH1 in lung cancer cells where it was sufficient to induce NE differentiation. miR-375 upregulation was a prerequisite for ASH1-mediated induction of NE features. The transcriptional coactivator YAP1 was determined to be a direct target of miR-375. YAP1 showed a negative correlation with miR-375 in a panel of lung cancer cell lines and growth inhibitory activities in NE-lung cancer cells. Our results elucidate an ASH1 effector axis in NE-lung cancers that is functionally pivotal in controlling NE features and the alleviation from YAP1-mediated growth inhibition. ©2011 AACR.

    Human exposure to asbestos fibers has been associated with diffuse malignant mesothelioma (DMM) in the pleural and abdominal cavity. Despite advancements in the molecular analyses of human cases of DMM and animal models, the understanding of the carcinogenic mechanisms remains still limited. There are basically three hypotheses regarding the pathogenesis of asbestos-induced DMM, which may be integrated as follows; (1) the "oxidative stress theory" is based on the fact that phagocytic cells that engulf asbestos fibers produce large amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) due to their inability to digest the fibers, and that iron contained in crocidolite and amosite fibers works as a catalyst for the generation of ROS, (2) the "chromosome tangling theory" postulates that asbestos fibers impair the equivalent distribution of chromosomes during mitosis, and (3) the "theory of adsorbing many specific proteins as well as carcinogenic molecules" states that asbestos fibers in vivo concentrate specific proteins or chemicals including the components of cigarette smoke and radioactive chemical element. Recent studies suggest that local iron overload is a key event. Elucidation of the major mechanisms underlying DMM would be helpful for the development of strategies to prevent DMM generation in people who have been exposed to asbestos. © The Japanese Environmental Mutagen Society.

    Iron is universally abundant and no life can exist without it. However, iron levels should be maintained within a narrow range. Iron deficiency causes anaemia, whereas excessive iron increases cancer risk, presumably by free radical generation. Several pathological conditions such as genetic haemochromatosis, chronic viral hepatitis B and C, conditions related to asbestos fibre exposure and ovarian endometriosis have been recognized as iron overload-associated conditions that also increase human cancer risks. Iron's carcinogenicity has been documented in animal experiments. Surprisingly, these studies have revealed that the homozygous deletion of CDKN2A/2B is a major hallmark of iron-induced carcinogenesis. Recently, the hormonal regulation of iron metabolism has been elucidated. A commonly hypothesized mechanism may be the lack of any iron disposal pathway other than for bleeding and a mechanism of iron re-uptake as catechol chelate has been discovered. Iron overload in neurons via the ferroportin block may play a role in Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, a recent epidemiological study reported that iron reduction by phlebotomy was associated with decreased cancer risks in a general population. Given that the required amounts of iron decrease during ageing, the fine control of body iron stores would be a wise strategy for chemoprevention of several diseases. © 2011 Informa UK, Ltd.

    An alteration of mitochondrial function can result in disruption of redox homeostasis and is associated with abnormal cancer cell growth. Manganese superoxide dismutase (SOD2) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4) are two of the most important antioxidant defense enzymes that protect cells against oxidative stress. We had previously shown that n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) promote colonocyte apoptosis, a marker of colon cancer risk, in part by enhancing phospholipid oxidation. To elucidate the mechanisms regulating oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in vivo, we fed heterozygous SOD2Het, Gpx4Het, and transgenic Gpx4Tg mice diets containing either 15% corn oil by weight (CO, enriched in n-6 PUFA) or 3.5% CO + 11.5% fish oil (FO, enriched in n-3 PUFA) for 4 weeks. Our data showed that (i) genetic predeposition to oxidative stress facilitates apoptosis in the mouse colon (Gpx4Het > SOD2Het > Wt > Gpx4Tg), (ii) dietary n-3 PUFA have an additive effect on the induction of apoptosis in Gpx4Het and SOD2Het mice; and (iii) dietary n-3 PUFA reverse the phenotype in oxidatively protected Gpx4Tg mice by elevating apoptosis to a level observed in wild-type (Wt; control) animals. Complimentary experiments examining colonic mitochondrial bioenergetic profiles indicate that FO-fed mice exhibit a significantly (P < 0.05) increased respiration-induced proton leak relative to control CO treatment. This finding was consistent with a loss of membrane potential in response to chronic oxidative stress and supports the contention that n-3 PUFA alter mitochondrial metabolic activity, thereby enhancing apoptosis and reducing colon cancer risk. ©2011 AACR.

    The regulation of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) late gene expression by viral proteins is poorly understood, and these viral proteins could be targets for novel antivirals. HCMV open reading frames (ORFs) UL79, -87, and -95 encode proteins with homology to late gene transcription factors of murine gammaherpesvirus 68 ORFs 18, 24, and 34, respectively. To determine whether these HCMV proteins are also essential for late gene transcription of a betaherpesvirus, we mutated HCMV ORFs UL79, -87, and -95. Cells were infected with the recombinant viruses at high and low multiplicities of infection (MOIs). While viral DNA was detected with the recombinant viruses, infectious virus was not detected unless the wild-type viral proteins were expressed in trans. At a high MOI, mutation of ORF UL79, -87, or -95 had no effect on the level of major immediate-early (MIE) gene expression or viral DNA replication, but late viral gene expression from the UL44, -75, and -99 ORFs was not detected. At a low MOI, preexpression of UL79 or -87, but not UL95, in human fibroblast cells negatively affected the level of MIE viral gene expression and viral DNA replication. The products of ORFs UL79, -87, and -95 were expressed as early viral proteins and recruited to prereplication complexes (pre-RCs), along with UL44, before the initiation of viral DNA replication. All three HCMV ORFs are indispensable for late viral gene expression and viral growth. The roles of UL79, -87, and -95 in pre-RCs for late viral gene expression are discussed. © 2011, American Society for Microbiology.

    The research project entitled &ldquo;Comprehensive approach on asbestos-related diseases&rdquo; supported by the &ldquo;Special Coordination Funds for Promoting Science and Technology (H18-1-3-3-1)&rdquo; began in 2006 and was completed at the end of the Japanese fiscal year of 2010. This project included four parts; (1) malignant mesothelioma (MM) cases and specimen registration, (2) development of procedures for the early diagnosis of MM, (3) commencement of clinical investigations including multimodal approaches, and (4) basic research comprising three components; (i) cellular and molecular characterization of mesothelioma cells, (ii) immunological effects of asbestos, and (iii) elucidation of asbestos-induced carcinogenesis using animal models. In this special issue of the Japanese Journal of Hygiene, we briefly introduce the achievements of our project. The second and third parts and the third component of the fourth part are described in other manuscripts written by Professors Fukuoka, Hasegawa, and Toyokuni. In this manuscript, we introduce a brief summary of the first part &ldquo;MM cases and specimen registration&rdquo;, the first component of the fourth part &ldquo;Cellular and molecular characterization of mesothelioma cells&rdquo; and the second component of the fourth part &ldquo;Immunological effects of asbestos&rdquo;. In addition, a previous special issue presented by the Study Group of Fibrous and Particulate Substances (SGFPS) (chaired by Professor Otsuki, Kawasaki Medical School, Japan) for the Japanese Society of Hygiene and published in Environmental Health and Preventive Medicine Volume 13, 2008, included reviews of the aforementioned first component of the fourth part of the project. Taken together, our project led medical investigations regarding asbestos and MM progress and contributed towards the care and examination of patients with asbestos-related diseases during these five years. Further investigations are required to facilitate the development of preventive measures and the cure of asbestos-related diseases, particularly in Japan, where asbestos-related diseases are predicted to increase in the next 10 to 20 years.<br>

    A total of 29 cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma initially manifesting in the bone marrow (BM-DLBCL) were analyzed for VH gene sequence, and expression microarray of chemokines and chemokine receptors and immunohistochemical analysis were done. Seminested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing analyses of 18 cases revealed that the VH gene usage in 6 cases was restricted to VH3-7, in 3 cases to V H4-34, and in 2 cases to VH4-39, which were all previously reported to be autoreactive. In total, 14 of 18 VH genes were those associated with autoimmune diseases, including VH3-21, V H3-23, and VH3-48. Furthermore, cDNA microarray analysis specific for chemokine and chemokine receptors revealed that chemokine receptor XCR1 expression was significantly elevated in the BM-DLBCL cases (P < 05), which was confirmed by quantitative reverse transcriptase-PCR and immunohistochemical analysis. Expression of the chemokine receptor XCR1 and frequent usage of autoreactive VH genes seem to be distinct characteristics of BM-DLBCL. © American Society for Clinical Pathology.

    By using a rat model of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) induced by ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), this study performed genome-wide analysis to identify target genes during carcinogenesis. It screened for genes with decreased expression in RCCs, with simultaneous loss of heterozygosity, eventually to focus on the fibulin-5 (fbln5) gene. Oxidative damage via Fe-NTA markedly increased Fbln5 in the proximal tubules. RCCs presented lower levels of Fbln5. However, a fraction of RCCs presenting pulmonary metastasis revealed significantly higher levels of Fbln5 than those without metastasis, accompanied by immunopositivity of RCC cells and myofibroblast proliferation. Experiments revealed that RCC cell lines showed lower expression of fbln5 than its non-transformed counterpart NRK52E, but that fbln5 transfection to RCC cell lines changed neither proliferation nor migration/invasion. The data suggest that Fbln5 plays a role not only in the tissue repair and remodelling after renal tubular oxidative damage but also in RCC metastasis, presumably as a cytokine. © 2011 Informa UK, Ltd.

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is an aggressive neoplasm associated with asbestos exposure. We carried out genome-wide array-based comparative genomic hybridization analysis with 14 MM cell lines. Three cell lines showed overlapping homozygous deletion at chromosome 13q12, which harbored the LATS2 (large tumor suppressor homolog 2) gene. With 6 other MM cell lines and 25 MM tumors, we found 10 inactivating homozygous deletions or mutations of LATS2 among 45 MMs. LATS2 encodes a serine/threonine kinase, a component of the Hippo tumor-suppressive signaling pathway, and we transduced LATS2 in MM cells with its mutation. Transduction of LATS2 inactivated oncoprotein YAP, a transcriptional coactivator, via phosphorylation, and inhibited MM cell growth. We also analyzed LATS2 immunohistochemically and found that 13 of 45 MM tumors had low expression of LATS2. Because NF2 is genetically mutated in 40% to 50% of MM, our data indicate that Hippo pathway dysregulation is frequent in MM cells with inactivation of LATS2 or an upstream regulator of this pathway, Merlin, which is encoded by NF2. Thus, our results suggest that the inactivation of LATS2 is one of the key mechanisms for constitutive activation of YAP, which induces deregulation of MM cell proliferation.

    Persistent oxidative stress has been associated with carcinogenesis. Iron overload is considered one such condition that causes oxidative stress. Epidemiological studies support a close link between iron overload and carcinogenesis. Reportedly, regular semiannual phlebotomies reduced cancer risk in an otherwise normal population. More specifically, genetic hemochromatosis, chronic viral hepatitis, ovarian endometriosis and asbestosis induce iron overload, which can lead to hepatocellular carcinoma, ovarian carcinoma or mesothelioma in humans. Through a combination of animal experiments and microarray analyses, homozygous deletion of CDKN2A/2B has been recognized as one of the major target genes involved in iron overload-induced carcinogenesis. CDKN2A/2B are the second most frequently inactivated tumor suppressing genes in human cancers. Currently, when infection is becoming sufficiently controlled worldwide, iron regulation may be the next target for human longevity. ©2011 JCBN.

    3-Morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1) affects vascular smooth muscle cell migration and proliferation, processes essential for atherosclerosis. However, the mechanism by which SIN-1 exerts these effects has not been elucidated. We used 2-DE followed by MALDI-TOF/TOF MS to identify responses in protein expression to SIN-1 in rat aortic smooth muscle. Platelet-derived growth factor-BB increased cell migration and proliferation in rat aortic smooth muscle cells, and subsequent SIN-1 treatment inhibited it. Administration of SIN-1 in vivo attenuated neointima formation in balloon-injured rat carotid arteries. Proteomic analysis showed that glutathione peroxidase and 40S ribosomal protein S12 were differentially expressed in aortic strips exposed to SIN-1. Expression of annexin A2 was decreased by SIN-1. Platelet-derived growth factor-BB-induced cell migration was increased and inhibited in rat aortic smooth muscle cells with overexpression and knockdown of annexin A2 gene, respectively. The expression of annexin A2 was increased in vascular neointima compared with the intact control, which was inhibited by SIN-1 treatment. These results demonstrate that SIN-1 may attenuate vascular neointima formation by inhibiting annexin A2-mediated migration. Therefore, annexin A2 may be a potential target for therapeutic strategies for atherosclerosis. © 2011 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

    We identified CD8+CD122+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) and demonstrated their importance in the maintenance of immune homeostasis and in the recovery from experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. In this paper, we show that CD8+CD122+ Tregs effectively prevent and cure colitis in a mouse model. In our experiments, colitis was induced in lymphocyte-deficient RAG-2-/- mice by transferring CD4 +CD45RBhigh cells that were excluded with CD4+ Tregs. Cotransfer of CD8+CD122+ cells clearly suppressed the development of colitis, and this suppressive effect was similar to that of CD4+CD45RBlow cells that were mostly CD4+ Tregs. CD8+CD122+ cells obtained from IL-10-/- mice were unable to suppress colitis, indicating that IL-10 is an important effect-transmitting factor in the suppression of colitis. CD8 +CD122+ cells showed a suppressive effect when they were transferred 4 wk after CD4+CD45RBhigh cells, indicating the therapeutic potential of CD8+CD122+ cells. A mixture of CD8+CD122+ cells and CD4+CD45RB low cells was far more effective than single Tregs, indicating the synergistic effect of these Tregs. These overall findings demonstrate the potential role of CD8+ Tregs, and possibly together with CD4 + Tregs, in the medical care of inflammatory bowel disease patients.

    :Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is an aggressive neoplasm associated with asbestos exposure. We carried out genome-wide array-based comparative genomic hybridization analysis with 14 MM cell lines. Three cell lines showed overlapping homozygous deletion at chromosome 13q12, which harbored the LATS2 (large tumor suppressor homolog 2) gene. With 6 other MM cell lines and 25 MM tumors, we found 10 inactivating homozygous deletions or mutations of LATS2 among 45 MMs. LATS2 encodes a serine/threonine kinase, a component of the Hippo tumor-suppressive signaling pathway, and we transduced LATS2 in MM cells with its mutation. Transduction of LATS2 inactivated oncoprotein YAP, a transcriptional coactivator, via phosphorylation, and inhibited MM cell growth. We also analyzed LATS2 immunohistochemically and found that 13 of 45 MM tumors had low expression of LATS2. Because NF2 is genetically mutated in 40% to 50% of MM, our data indicate that Hippo pathway dysregulation is frequent in MM cells with inactivation of LATS2 or an upstream regulator of this pathway, Merlin, which is encoded by NF2. Thus, our results suggest that the inactivation of LATS2 is one of the key mechanisms for constitutive

    【目的】脳梗塞時には活性酸素やフリーラジカルが大量に産生され、酸化ストレスとして組織損傷を拡大させるため、酸化ストレスは脳梗塞を増悪させる主要な因子である。一方、健常なラットを長期間運動させると、脳内で抗酸化酵素が増加し酸化ストレスの減少をもたらすことが報告されており、運動は脳内の抗酸化作用を高めることが示されている。また、先行研究では、脳梗塞モデルラット作成前に一定期間の運動をさせると、運動していないラットに比べて、脳梗塞後の梗塞体積が減少し運動機能障害も軽減するといった脳梗塞障害軽減効果が報告されている。しかし、運動により高まる脳内の抗酸化作用が、脳梗塞時の酸化ストレスに影響を及ぼしているかどうかは不明である。そこで本研究では、脳梗塞発症前の運動の効果および作用機序を酸化ストレスに着目して検討することを目的とした。<BR>【方法】実験動物には Wistar系雄性ラット(5週齢)を用いた。無作為に運動群と非運動群に分け、運動群は3週間トレッドミル運動(15 m / min、30分/日)を毎日行った。非運動群は走行させずにトレッドミル装置内に暴露させた(1日30分間)。3週間後、各群に小泉法による脳梗塞モデル作成手術を施行した。手術24時間後に、運動機能評価として、麻痺の重症度を評価する Neurological Deficits(ND)、歩行時のバランス能力の評価として Beam Walking(BW)、はしご上の歩行における前肢の協調運動機能を評価するLadder test、前肢の感覚運動機能の評価として Limb Placing(LP)を行った。その直後に脳を採取し、TTC染色により非梗塞半球体積に対する梗塞体積の割合を算出した。また、酸化ストレスの指標として、酸化ストレスによる細胞膜障害の指標となる 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal [4-HNE]及びDNA障害の指標となる 8-Hydroxydeoxyguanosine[8-OHdG]の免疫染色を行った。統計学的検定には、対応のない t検定と Mann-WhitneyのU検定を用い、有意水準は5%未満とした。<BR>【説明と同意】本研究は、名古屋大学医学部保健学科動物実験委員会の承諾を得て実施した(承認番号:022-028号)。<BR>【結果】脳梗塞手術24時間後の運動機能のうち、 ND(麻痺の重症度)と Ladder test(前肢の協調運動機能障害)は運動群の方が非運動群に比べて軽度で、有意差が認められた(<I>p</I> < 0.05)。一方、 LP(前肢の感覚機能)や BW(歩行時の後肢機能)は群間に有意差は認められなかった。また、梗塞体積割合は、運動群の方が非運動群よりも有意に小さく(<I>p</I> < 0.05)、脳梗塞発症前の運動はその後の脳梗塞による組織損傷を軽減することが示された。酸化ストレス指標のうち、過酸化脂質の指標である4-HNEの免疫染色では、非運動群に比べて運動群は陽性細胞が少ない傾向にあった。また、DNAの酸化的損傷を示す8-OHdGは、梗塞側では運動群の方が陽性細胞が少ない傾向にあったが、非梗塞側は両群とも陽性細胞は見られなかった。<BR>【考察】本研究は、脳梗塞発症前に3週間運動を継続することが、その後の脳梗塞の障害に及ぼす効果を酸化ストレスに着目して検討した。その結果、脳梗塞前に運動を行った運動群は非運動群と比較して、脳梗塞後の梗塞体積が減少し運動機能障害が軽減され、先行研究の結果と一致した。また、脳梗塞による細胞膜及びDNAに対する酸化ストレスが運動群で減少したことから、運動によって高められる脳内の抗酸化作用は、正常時だけでなく、脳梗塞時の酸化ストレスに対しても抑制効果をもたらす可能性が示唆された。これらのことから、3週間の運動が脳梗塞後の障害軽減効果をもたらした作用機序として、脳内の抗酸化作用を高めて脳梗塞の酸化ストレスを抑制したことにより、組織損傷が軽減し、運動機能障害が改善されたと考えられる。しかし、今回の運動条件がどの程度の抗酸化作用を有しているかは確認していないため、今後検討していく必要がある。<BR>【理学療法学研究としての意義】本研究は、健常時の運動習慣の有無が脳梗塞を発症した場合の障害程度に及ぼす影響について検討した基礎研究であり、発症前の運動習慣が脳梗塞の予後を改善する可能性を示唆している。また、今後理学療法士が活躍の場を広げ予防医療の分野に携わる際、運動を推奨することの科学的根拠となる有用な知見である。

    Carcinogenesis follows multi-step processes involving both genetic alteration and increased cell proliferation. Oxidative stress can occur via overproduction of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species through either endogenous or exogenous insults. Oxidative stress is always associated with inflammation, radiation, reperfusion, and iron overload. Epidemiological observations have shown that oxidative stress is one of the major pathologic mechanisms for cancer, the top-ranked cause of human mortality worldwide. During carcinogenesis, the unregulated or prolonged production of cellular oxidants has been linked to mutation through generation of oxidative DNA damage. Furthermore, signal transduction pathways are activated by reactive species, and they lead to the transcription of genes involved in cellular growth regulatory and stress protection pathways. This review examines the involvement of oxidative stress in the carcinogenic process starting from its history, and presents future perspectives.

    It is beneficial to seek scientific basis for the effects of functional foods. Natural pigments derived from plants are widely known as possible antioxidants. Black soybean contains a larger amount of anthocyanins than regular soybean. Here we studied the anti-oxidative effect of a beverage obtained via citric acid fermentation of black soybean (BBS), using a rat model of renal oxidative injury induced by a renal carcinogen, ferric nitrilotriacetate. BBS (10 ml/kg) was orally administered 30 min before ferric nitrilotriacetate treatment. Renal lipid peroxidation was significantly suppressed in the BBS-pretreated animals concomitant with decrease in 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins and 8-hydroxy-2`-deoxyguanosine. Maintenance of renal activities of antioxidative enzymes including catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase, glutathione S-transferase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and quinone reductase was significantly better in the BBS-pretreated rats. Elevation of serum creatinine and urea nitrogen was significantly suppressed in the BBS-pretreated rats. These data suggest that dietary intake of BBS is useful for the prevention of renal tubular oxidative damage mediate by iron, and warrant further investigation.

    In the trend of biological science after the completion of the human genome project, appreciation of an organism as a system rather than the sum of many molecular functions is necessary. On the investigation of DNA damage and repair, therefore, the orientation toward systematic and comprehensive genome-scale approaches is rapidly growing. The immuno-precipitation-based technique combined with high-density microarrays is one of the promising methods to provide access to such novel research strategies. We propose this sort of research area as oxygenomics.

    Iron is essential for the survival of mammals, but iron overload causes fibrosis and carcinogenesis. Reduced iron absorption and regulated release into circulation in duodenal mucosa constitute two major mechanisms of protection against dietary iron overload; however, their relative contribution remains elusive. To study the significance of the former process, we generated SLC11A2 transgenic mice (TGs) under the control of the chicken β-actin promoter. TGs were viable and fertile, and displayed no overt abnormalities up to 20 months. No significant difference in iron concentration was observed in major solid organs between TGs and their wild-type littermates, suggesting that increased number of iron transporters does not lead to increased iron absorption. To test the sensitivity to iron overload, TGs and wild-type mice were fed with an iron-rich diet containing 2% ferric citrate. Iron supplementation caused suppression of endogenous duodenal SLC11A2 expression, down-regulation of duodenal ferroportin, and overexpression of hepatic hepcidin, precluding excessive iron uptake both in the TGs and wild-type mice. However, iron-treated TGs revealed increased mortality, resulting from oxidative mucosal damage leading to hemorrhagic erosion throughout the whole intestinal area. These findings suggest that reduced iron release from duodenal cells into circulation plays a role in mitigating excessive iron uptake from the diet and that finely regulated duodenal absorption is essential to protect intestinal mucosa from iron-induced oxidative damage.

    trans-2-Nonenal is an unsaturated aldehyde with an unpleasant greasy and grassy odor endogenously generated during the peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. 2-Nonenal covalently modified human serum albumin through a reaction in which the aldehyde preferentially reacted with the lysine residues. Modified proteins were immunogenic, and a specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) 27Q4 that cross-reacted with the protein covalently modified with 2-nonenal was raised from mouse. To verify the presence of the protein-bound 2-nonenal in vivo, the mAb 27Q4 against the 2-nonenal-modified keyhole limpet hemocyanin was raised. It was found that a novel 2-nonenal-lysine adduct, cis- and trans-N∈-3-[(hept-1-enyl)-4-hexylpyridinium] lysine (HHP-lysine), constitutes an epitope of the antibody. The immunoreactive materials with mAb 27Q4 were detected in the kidney of rats exposed to ferric nitrilotriacetate, an iron chelate that induces free radical-mediated oxidative tissue damage. Using high performance liquid chromatography with on-line electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry, we also established a highly sensitive method for detection of the cis- and trans-HHP-lysine and confirmed that the 2-nonenallysine adducts were indeed formed during the lipid peroxidation- mediated modification of protein in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, we examined the involvement of the scavenger receptor lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor-1 in the recognition of 2-nonenal-modified proteins and established that the receptor recognized the HHP-lysine adducts as a ligand. © 2010 by The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Inc.

    Asbestos-induced mesothelioma is a challenging social problem in many countries, and oxidative stress via iron is closely associated with its carcinogenesis. Mesothelioma is thought to originate from the mesothelial cells that cover the somatic cavity such as pleural, pericardial and peritoneal cavities. They are single layered and so flat that it is extremely difficult to obtain pure mesothelial cells as control samples from experimental animals. Here we describe a novel method to collect mesothelial cells from animals by the use of simple equipments. Surface of the most organs including lung, spleen and liver are covered with a single layer of mesothelial cells. Scraping the surface of those organs with razor blades after snap-freeze in liquid nitrogen satisfactorily confers almost pure population of mesothelial cells. This simple method would be helpful for obtaining mesothelial control samples from animals to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of a variety of mesothelial pathology.

    In humans, mesothelioma has been linked to asbestos exposure, especially crocidolite and amosite asbestos, which contain high amounts of iron. Previously, we established a rat model of iron-induced peritoneal mesothelioma with repeated intraperitoneal injections of iron saccharate and an iron chelator, nitrilotriacetate. Here, we analyze these mesotheliomas using array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) and gene expression profiling by microarray. Mesotheliomas were classified into two distinct types after pathologic evaluation by immunohistochemistry. The major type, epithelioid mesothelioma (EM), originated in the vicinity of tunica vaginalis testis, expanded into the upper peritoneal cavity and exhibited papillary growth and intense podoplanin immunopositivity. The minor type, sarcomatoid mesothelioma (SM), originated from intraperitoneal organs and exhibited prominent invasiveness and lethality. Both mesothelioma types showed male preponderance. SMs revealed massive genomic alterations after aCGH analysis, including homozygous deletion of CDKN2A/2B and amplification of ERBB2 containing region, whereas EMs showed less genomic alterations. Uromodulin was highly expressed in most of the cases. After 4-week treatment, iron deposition in the mesothelia was observed with 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine formation. These results not only show two distinct molecular pathways for iron-induced peritoneal mesothelioma, but also support the hypothesis that oxidative stress by iron overload is a major cause of CDKN2A/2B homozygous deletion. © 2010 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved.

    While the molecular mechanisms underlying microsatellite instability (MSI) have been exhaustively investigated, identifying the patterns of MSI distribution within diverse cancer genomes has remained an elusive issue. In the present study, we conducted genome-wide MSI screening in B-cell lymphoblastic lymphomas (B-LBL) which spontaneously develop in the SL/Kh strain of mice. Tumor samples harvested from 16 mice were investigated using a framework map consisting of 150 microsatellite markers spaced at increments of roughly 0.5-3.0 centimorgans, spanning the entirety of mouse chromosomes (mus musculus chromosomes [MMU]) 3-6. MMU3 contains a quantitative trait locus (QTL), Bomb1 (bone marrow pre-B1), known to induce an aberrant expansion of pre-B cells in bone marrow prior to the onset of B-LBL in SL/Kh mice. The remaining chromosomes were selected on the basis of those most closely resembling MMU3 in terms of total estimated length (maximum variance 10 Mb). MSI was confirmed at 2≤ markers in DNA derived from tumor tissues in 15 SL/Kh mice (93.7%), while healthy splenic DNA samples screened in parallel were consistently negative for MSI. The overall MSI incidence was significantly higher on MMU3 compared with MMU4-6 (P = 0.031). Additionally, by applying spatial point pattern analysis combined with a 1-D version of Ripley's K-function, we successfully demonstrated the predilection of MSI-susceptible loci to structure a massive cluster within the Bomb1 locus. Our study is the first to suggest that a QTL concomitantly serves as a hotspot for MSI-susceptible loci and sheds new light on somatic cancer genetics. © 2010 Japanese Cancer Association.

    【目的】脳梗塞モデル作成前の運動には、梗塞体積減少、運動機能改善などの脳梗塞の障害軽減効果があると報告されている。また、運動は抗酸化作用を高めることが報告されているが、抗酸化作用が脳梗塞の障害軽減効果にいかに関与するかについては不明である。そこで本研究では、脳梗塞発症前に運動を行うことの効果および作用機序を抗酸化作用に着目して検討する。【方法】実験動物にはWistar系雄性ラット(5週齢)を用いた。無作為に運動群と非運動群に分け、運動群はトレッドミル運動(15 m / min、30分/日)を3週間毎日行った。非運動群は1日30分間走行させずにトレッドミル装置内に暴露させた。介入終了の翌日、各群に脳梗塞モデル作成手術を施行した。手術24時間後に、麻痺の重症度を評価するNeurological Deficits(ND)、歩行時のバランス能力の評価としてBeam Walking(BW)、はしご上の歩行における前肢の協調運動機能を評価するLadder test、前肢の感覚運動機能の評価としてLimb Placing(LP)を行った。その直後に脳を採取し、TTC染色により非梗塞半球体積に対する梗塞体積の割合を算出した。また、酸化ストレス産物の指標として4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE)及び8-Hydroxydeoxyguanosine(8-OHdG)の免疫染色を行った。統計学的検定には、対応のないt検定とMann-WhitneyのU検定を用い、有意水準は5%未満とした。【結果】NDとladder testにおいて、運動群が非運動群と比較して有意に障害が軽減した(<I>p</I> < 0.05)。また、他の機能評価や梗塞体積については群間に有意差は認められなかった。免疫染色では、非梗塞側半球で運動群に比べ非運動群は4-HNE陽性細胞が多くみられた。しかし、8-OHdG染色では差を認めなかった。【まとめ】脳梗塞前の運動は、梗塞後の運動機能改善効果をもたらしたものの、梗塞体積は非運動群と同程度であった。しかし、脂質過酸化の指標である4-HNE陽性細胞は非運動群の非梗塞側でより多く見られ、運動による酸化ストレス抑制効果が示された。<BR>本研究は科研費(22500456)の助成を受けたものである。

    Objective. Respiratory exposure to asbestos has been associated with mesothelioma in humans. However, its carcinogenic mechanism is still unclear. Methods. Here we studied the ability of chrysotile, crocidolite and amosite fibers to induce oxidative DNA damage and the modifying factors using 4 distinct approaches. Results. Electron spin resonance analyses showed that crocidolite and amosite containing high amounts of iron, but not chrysotile, catalyzed hydroxyl radical formation in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, which was enhanced by an iron chelator, nitrilotriacetic acid, and suppressed by Desferal®. Iron chelators, such as citrate, ATP and GTP, did not inhibit this reaction. Second, we used time-lapse videomicroscopy to evaluate how cells deal with asbestos fibers. RAW264.7 cells, MeT-5A and HeLa cells engulfed asbestos fibers, which reached not only cytoplasm but also the nucleus. Third, we utilized supercoiled plasmid DNA to evaluate the ability of each type of asbestos to induce DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). Crocidolite and amosite, but not chrysotile, induced DNA DSBs in the presence of iron chelators. We cloned the fragments to identify break ends. DSBs tended to occur within repeat sequences and between two G:C sequences. Finally, intraperitoneal administration of each type of asbestos to rats induced not only formation of nuclear 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine in the mesothelium but also significant iron deposits in the spleen. Conclusion. Together with the established carcinogenicity of intraperitoneal chrysotile, our data suggest that asbestos-associated catalytic iron, whether constitutional or induced by other mechanisms, plays a role in asbestos-induced carcinogenesis and that chemoprevention may be possible through targeting the catalytic iron. © 2009 The Japan Lung Cancer Society.

    The health promoting effects of a grapevine-shoot extract named Vineatrol®30, which contains resveratrol (Resv) as well as considerable amounts of Resv oligomers, have recently been investigated. In the present study, we analyzed the free radical scavenging capacity, the ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation, and the capacity to enhance the human glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPx) and the human superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD) gene promoter activities of Vineatrol®30. Vineatrol®30 was able to scavenge the 2,2'-azinobis-3- ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid radical cation and led to concentration-dependent inhibition of lipid peroxidation, Vineatrol®30 not being superior to Resv alone in both cases. Vineatrol®30 also enhanced the gene promoter activities of human GPx and SOD expressed in V79 cells, whereas this effect could not be demonstrated for Resv. In summary, the results presented in this study show that the Vineatrol®30 grapevine-shoot extract is a free radical scavenger and potent antioxidant at non-cytotoxic concentrations.

    Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) undergo self-renewal division and support spermatogenesis. Although several cytokines coordinate to drive SSC self-renewal, little is known about the mechanisms underlying this process. We investigated the molecular mechanism by reconstructing SSC self-renewal in vitro without exogenous cytokines. Activation of Ras or overexpression of cyclins D2 and E1, both of which were induced by Ras, enabled long-term self-renewal of cultured spermatogonia. SSCs with activated Ras responded properly to differentiation signals and underwent spermatogenesis, whereas differentiation was abrogated in cyclin transfectants after spermatogonial transplantation. Both Ras- and cyclin-transfected cells produced seminomatous tumors, suggesting that excessive self-renewing stimulus induces oncogenic transformation. In contrast, cells that overexpressed cyclin D1 or D3 failed to make germ cell colonies after transplantation, which indicated that cyclin expression pattern is an important determinant to long-term SSC recolonization. Thus, the Ras-cyclin D2 pathway regulates the balance between tissue maintenance and tumorigenesis in the SSC population. © 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Although spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are committed to spermatogenesis, they may also convert to an embryonic stem cell-like pluripotent state at a low frequency. Because changes in DNA methylation patterns are associated with this conversion, we examined the effect of manipulating DNA methyltransferase (Dnmt) expression on the fate of cultured SSCs, germline stem (GS) cells. Dnmt1 knockdown induced apoptosis in GS cells, which was attenuated by the loss of Trp53. In contrast, GS cells proliferated normally in vitro after Dnmt3a/Dnmt3b ablation or during Dnmt3l overexpression. However, Dnmt3a/Dnmt3b double-mutant cells showed hypomethylation in the SineB1 repetitive sequence, and Dnmt3l-overexpressing cells showed hypermethylation in major and minor satellite sequences; neither cell type formed teratomas and completed spermatogenesis following transplantation into the seminiferous tubules. Although genetic manipulation did not increase the conversion of GS cells to a pluripotent state, these results underscore the important role of DNMTs in survival and spermatogenic differentiation in SSCs. © 2009 by the Society for the Study of Reproduction, Inc.

    We recently demonstrated that (n-3) PUFA trigger the induction of apoptosis in the colon by enhancing phospholipid oxidation and mitochondrial Ca 2+ accumulation. To further elucidate the mechanisms regulating oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in vivo, a 2 x 2 experiment was designed using both wild type (control) and manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase (SOD2) heterozygous knockout mice (SOD2+/-), which exhibit increased mitochondrial oxidative stress. Mice were fed diets differing only in the type of fat [corn oil or fish oil containing (n-3) PUFA] at 15% by weight for 4 wk. Dietary (n-3) PUFA treatment enhanced (22%) apoptosis in colonic crypts. In addition, SOD2 haploinsufficiency enhanced (20%) apoptosis, which was further increased (36%) by (n-3) PUFA feeding. Dietary lipid source and genotype interactively modulated nitrotyrosine levels (P = 0.027) and inflammation (P = 0.032). These findings demonstrate that the proapoptotic effects of (n-3) PUFA are enhanced in oxidatively stressed SOD2+/- mice. Thus, (n-3) PUFA appear to promote an oxidation-reduction imbalance in the intestine, which may directly or indirectly trigger apoptosis and thereby reduce colon cancer risk. © 2009 American Society for Nutrition.

    The current study investigated the presence of oxidative stress markers (8-OHdG and HNE) in breast carcinoma in females from Saudi Arabia, and to examine the growth modulatory effects of HNE (induce cell growth inhibition) by measuring the expression of Ki-67 protein (cell proliferation antigen). Furthermore, to record if there is any significant prognostic indicator of these markers. In order to estimate the level of oxidative damage in breast cancer, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) expressions were investigated in breast carcinoma and benign lesions of breast, and were estimated by semi-quantitative immunohistochemical method. The observations of the present study showed that the level of expressions of 8-OHdG and HNE were significantly higher than those in controls. Reduction of oxidative stress is thought to be a very important measure for primary prevention of breast carcinoma. © 2009, INSInet Publication.

    Inosine triphosphate pyrophosphatase (ITPase), the enzyme that hydrolyzes ITP and other deaminated purine nucleoside triphosphates to the corresponding purine nucleoside monophosphate and pyrophosphate, is encoded by the Itpa gene. In this study, we established Itpa knockout (KO) mice and used them to show that ITPase is required for the normal organization of sarcomeres in the heart. Itpa-/- mice died about 2 weeks after birth with features of growth retardation and cardiac myofiber disarray, similar to the phenotype of the cardiac α-actin KO mouse. Inosine nucleotides were found to accumulate in both the nucleotide pool and RNA of Itpa-/- mice. These data suggest that the role of ITPase in mice is to exclude ITP from the ATP pool, and the main target substrate of this enzyme is rITP. Our data also suggest that cardiomyopathy, which is mainly caused by mutations in sarcomeric protein-encoding genes, is also caused by a defect in maintaining the quality of the ATP pool, which is an essential requirement for sarcomere function.

    Cardioplegic arrest has been the main mechanism of myocardial protection during open-heart surgery; however, it causes myocardial injury during ischemia-reperfusion. Free radical scavengers are widely known to attenuate ischemia-reperfusion injury in various settings. We investigated the effects of edaravone, a novel free radical scavenger that was originally used for cerebral protection, on myocardial function during ischemia-reperfusion after cardioplegic arrest. Rat hearts were excised and perfused using Langendorff apparatus. The hearts were cardioplegically arrested for 90 min using St. Thomas' Hospital cardioplegic solution (ST solution) at 4°C every 45 min and then reperfused for 20 min. The hearts were divided into 4 groups (n = 13 in each group). In Group ST, the hearts were arrested using the ST solution alone. In Groups L, M, and H, the hearts were arrested using the ST solution supplemented with a low-dose (1 μM), moderate dose (10 μM), and high dose (100 μM) of edaravone, respectively. Left ventricular function (+dp/dt max) and the levels of the cardiac enzymes released were measured before and after cardioplegic arrest. At the end of the study, the water content and the tissue oxidative stress (8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine) of the heart were measured. During reperfusion, the edaravone-treated groups showed a greater functional recovery with regard to the +dp/dtmax (P < 0.05). The lactate level was the lowest (P < 0.01) in Group M. The water content of the hearts in the edaravone-treated groups was significantly lower (P< 0.05) than that in Group ST. Oxidative stress was significantly lower (P< 0.01) in the edaravone-treated hearts than in Group ST, and it was the lowest in Group M. The addition of edaravone to the cardioplegic solution ameliorates the impairment in myocardial function by reducing the oxidative stress after cardioplegic arrest. In this study, the maximum improvement in the myocardial function was achieved by addition of a moderate dose (10 μ) of edaravone. © Springer Japan 2009.

    Although granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) reportedly plays a cardiopro- tective role in several models of cardiac injury, clinical use of this drug in cardiac patients has been controversial. Here, we tested, in vivo and in vitro, the effect of G-CSF on cardiac mitochondria, which play a key role in determining cardiac cellular fate and function. Mild stimulation of C57/BL6 mice with doxorubicin (Dox) did not induce cardiac apoptosis or fibrosis but did induce damage to mitochondrial organization of the myocardium as observed through an electron microscope. Cardiac catheterization and echocardiography revealed that Dox did not alter cardiac systolic function or left ventricular size but did reduce diastolic function, an early sign of cardiac damage. Treatment with G-CSF attenuated significantly the damage to mitochondrial organization and rescued diastolic function. In an in vitro model for rat neonatal cardiomyocytes, a subapoptotic dose of Dox induced severe mitochondrial damage, including marked swelling of the cardiac mitochondria and/or decreased mitochondrial membrane potential. These mitochondrial changes were completely blocked by pretreatment with G-CSF. In addition, G-CSF dramatically improved ATP generation, which rescued Dox-impaired mitochondrial electron transport and oxygen consumption mainly through complex IV. These findings clearly indicate that G-CSF protects cardiac mitochondria, which are key organelles in the determination of cardiac cellular fate, in the early phase of cardiac injury. © 2009 the American Physiological Society.

    Respiratory exposure to asbestos fibers has been associated with diffuse malignant mesothelioma (DMM) in humans. Despite advancements in the molecular analyses of human DMM and the development of animal models, the carcinogenic mechanisms of the disease remain unclear. There are basically three hypotheses regarding the pathogenesis of asbestos-induced DMM, which may be summarized as follows: (1) the "oxidative stress theory" is based on the fact that phagocytic cells that engulf asbestos fibers produce large amounts of free radicals due to their inability to digest the fibers, and epidemiological studies indicating that iron-containing asbestos fibers appear more carcinogenic; (2) the "chromosome tangling theory" postulates that asbestos fibers damage chromosomes when cells divide; and (3) the "theory of adsorption of many specific proteins as well as carcinogenic molecules" states that asbestos fibers in vivo concentrate proteins or chemicals including the components of cigarette smoke. Elucidation of the major mechanisms underlying DMM would be helpful for the development of novel strategies to prevent DMM induction in people who have already been exposed to asbestos.

    Malignant rhabdoid tumors (MRT) exhibit a very poor prognosis because of their resistance to chemotherapeutic agents and new therapies are needed for the treatment of this cancer. Here, we show that the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor FK228 (depsipeptide) has an antitumor effect on MRT cells both in vitro and in vivo. FK228 is a unique cyclic peptide and is among the most potent inhibitors of both Class I and Class II HDACs. FK228 inhibited proliferation and induced apoptosis in all MRT cell lines tested. Preincubation with the pancaspase inhibitor zVAD-fmk did not completely rescue FK228-induced cell death, although it did inhibit apoptosis. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed that FK228 could stimulate MRT cells to undergo apoptosis, necrosis or autophagy. FK228 converted unconjugated microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 (LC3-I) to conjugated light chain 3 (LC3-II) and induced localization of LC3 to autophagosomes. Apoptosis inducing factor (AIF), which plays a role in caspase-independent cell death, translocated to the nucleus in response to FK228 treatment. Moreover, small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting of AIF prevented the morphological changes associated with autophagy and redistribution of LC3 to autophagosomes. Disrupting autophagy with chloroquine treatment enhanced FK228-induced cell death. In vivo, FK228 caused a reduction in tumor size and induced autophagy in tumor tissues. Using immunoelectron microscopy, we confirmed AIF translocation into the nucleus of FK228-induced autophagic cells in vivo. Thus, FK228 is a novel candidate for an antitumor agent for MRT cells. © 2008 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    A growing number of studies indicate a link between oxidative stress and cancer. We previously developed a rat model of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) induced by ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA). Here, we performed a genome-wide analysis to study characteristics of genomic alteration and identify putative genes involved in the development of Fe-NTA-induced RCCs. Array-based comparative genomic hybridization analyses revealed a chromosomal loss spanning chromosome 8 in most of the RCCs studied, with a common deletion at 8q31-32, which was confirmed by loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis. Studies of gene expression in RCCs or following Fe-NTA treatment revealed globally decreased transcription levels of 34 genes derived from chromosome 8 that are expressed in the kidney. Among them, the aminoacylase 1 (Acy1) gene, which maps to 8q32 and is highly expressed in the kidney, displayed a significantly decreased level of expression in RCCs. Significant amounts of the Acy1 protein were detected in the cytoplasm as well as in the nuclei of renal proximal tubular cells of untreated rats. Transfection of Acy1 into RCC cell lines inhibited proliferation and colony formation on soft agar. An increased number of apoptotic cells were observed following Acy1 transfection. The rat 8q31-32 chromosomal region corresponds to human 3p21.31-24.1, a hot spot where LOH is frequently found in various human cancers. Thus, Fe-NTA-induced renal tumor model is ideal for studying the link between deletions within this region and tumor formation. Our data demonstrate that Acy1 functions as a tumor suppressor in this rat RCC model. © The Author 2008. Published by Oxford University Press. All rights reserved.

    Iron is abundant universally. During the evolutionary processes, humans have selected iron as a carrier of oxygen inside the body. However, iron works as a double-edged sword, and its excess is a risk for cancer, presumably via generation of reactive oxygen species. Thus far, pathological conditions such as hemochromatosis, chronic viral hepatitis B and C, exposure to asbestos fibers, as well as endometriosis have been recognized as iron overload-associated risks for human cancer. Indeed, iron is carcinogenic in animal experiments. These reports unexpectedly revealed that there are target genes in iron-induced carcinogenesis and that iron-catalyzed oxidative DNA damage is not random in.vivo. Several iron transporters and hepcidin, a peptide hormone regulating iron metabolism, were discovered in the past decade. Furthermore, a recent epidemiological study reported that iron reduction by phlebotomy decreased cancer risk in the apparently normal population. These results warrant reconsideration of the role of iron in carcinogenesis and suggest that fine control of body iron stores would be a wise strategy for cancer prevention. © 2009 Japanese Cancer Association.

    Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase (TK) inhibitors are promising therapeutic agents for Bcr-Abl-positive (Bcr-Abl+) leukemias. Although they are known to promote caspase-mediated apoptosis, it remains unclear whether caspase-independent cell death-inducing mechanisms are also triggered. Here we demonstrated that INNO-406, a second-generation Bcr-Abl TK inhibitor, induces programmed cell death (PCD) in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cell lines through both caspase-mediated and caspase-independent pathways. The latter pathways include caspase-independent apoptosis (CIA) and necrosis-like cell death (CIND), and the cell lines varied regarding which mechanism was elicited upon INNO-406 treatment. We also observed that the propensity toward CIA or CIND in cells was strongly associated with cellular dependency on apoptosome-mediated caspase activity. Cells that undergo CIND have a high apoptosome activity potential whereas cells that undergo CIA tend to have a lower potential. Moreover, we found that INNO-406 promotes autophagy. When autophagy was inhibited with chloroquine or gene knockdown of beclin1 by shRNA, INNO-406-induced cell death was enhanced, which indicates that the autophagic response of the tumor cells is protective. These findings suggest new insights into the biology and therapy of Bcr-Abl+ leukemias.

    Ogg1 DNA repair enzyme recognizes and excises oxidative stress-caused 8-hydroxyl-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) from GC base-pairs. Ogg1 knockout mice are phenotypically normal, but exhibit elevated levels of 8-OHdG in nuclear and mitochondrial DNA, as well as moderately elevated mutagenesis and spontaneous lung tumors and UV-induced skin tumors. To elucidate the mechanistic role of inflammation-caused oxidative stress in carcinogenesis, the development of chronic ulcerative colitis (UC)-induced carcinoma in Ogg1 knockout mice was studied using a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced UC model without the use of a carcinogen. Ogg1 (-/-), Ogg1 (+/-), and wild type C57BL/6 mice were subjected to long-term, cyclic DSS treatment to induce chronic UC and carcinogenesis. In wild type C57BL/6 control mice after 15 cycles of DSS treatment, colorectal adenocarcinoma incidence was 24.1% (7/29 mice), with a tumor volume of 27.9 ± 5.2 mm3. Ogg1 (-/-) mice showed significantly increased adenocarcinoma development in the colon with a tumor incidence of 57.1% (12 of 21 mice, P < 0.05) and a tumor volume of 35.1 ± 6.1 mm3. Ogg1 mice (+/-) also exhibited significantly increased tumor development in the colon with a tumor incidence of 50.0% (13/26 mice) and a tumor volume of 29.1 ± 7.2 mm3. Histopathologic analyses revealed that colorectal tumors were well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinomas or mucinous carcinoma and adjacent colonic mucosa showed mild to moderate chronic UC. Using immunohistochemical approaches, Ogg1 (-/-) and (+/-) mice exhibited similar numbers and staining intensities of macrophages in UC areas as seen in Ogg1 (+/+) mice, but markedly increased numbers and staining intensities of 8-OHdG positive inflammatory and epithelial cells. These results provide important evidence on the relationship between inflammation-caused oxidative stress, DNA repair enzyme Ogg1, and carcinogenesis. © 2008 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Oxidative stress is associated with inflammation, radiation, reperfusion, and iron overload. Epidemiological observations have shown that oxidative stress is one of the major sources of carcinogenesis, the top-ranked cause of human mortality worldwide. In situations of oxidative stress, reactive oxygen and nitrogen species contribute to the alteration of genome information, presumably followed by selection of the adapted proliferating cells in a given environment. Recent data suggest that common molecular mechanisms exist in oxidative stress-induced carcinogenesis, including p16INK4A inactivation. Thus far, oxidative DNA damage in the genome as a cause of mutation has been recognized to be randomly distributed based on in vitro experiments, while localization of oxidative DNA damage in vivo has not been pursued. However, using a novel technique based on DNA immunoprecipitation in combination with genome information, we now know that the localization of oxidative DNA damage is not random in vivo. We propose to call this rather novel research area "oxygenomics." Many signaling pathways start from the recognition of DNA damage. Thus, possible underlying principles should be elucidated in association with each cell type, the genomic location of the damage with its transcriptional activity as well as the chromatin status determining the epigenetic effect. © 2008 IUBMB.

    Various lines of evidence indicate that the oxidative modification of protein and the subsequent accumulation of the degenerated proteins have been found in cells and tissues during aging, oxidative stress, and in a variety of pathological states. The critical agents that give rise to this protein degeneration may be represented by aldehydes. Although the covalent modification of proteins by aldehydes alone has been well-studied, the effect of reactive oxygen species, such as H2O2, upon aldehyde modification of the protein has received little attention. We have now established a unique protein modification in which H2O2 and, to a lesser extent, alkyl hydroperoxides mediate the binding of alkanals to the lysine residues of protein to generate structurally unusual N-acylation products. Upon the reaction of a lysine-containing peptide, Nα-benzoylglycyl- lysine, with hexanal in the presence of H2O2, a product containing one molecule of hexanal per peptide was detected. On the basis of the chemical and spectroscopic evidence, the product was identified to be the acylation product, Nε-hexanoyllysine. H2O2 mediated the N-acylation of the lysine derivative by the saturated aldehydes of 1-6 carbons in length. The H2O2-mediated acylation of the protein was immunochemically confirmed by reaction of the proteins with hexanal in the presence of H2O2. Furthermore, the enhanced N-acylations (N-acetylation and N-hexanoylation) were also observed in the kidney of rats exposed to ferric nitrilotriacetate, a well-characterized inducer of oxidative stress. Mechanistic studies using a phosphonium lysine derivative suggest a Baeyer-Villiger-like reaction proceeding through peroxide addition to the aldehyde Schiff base. These data suggest that the hydroperoxides, including H2O2, might be involved not only in the oxidative modification of protein but also in the covalent binding of the saturated aldehydes to proteins under oxidative stress. © 2008 American Chemical Society.

    Although pluripotent stem cells were recently discovered in postnatal testis, attempts to analyze their developmental potential have led to conflicting claims that spermatogonial stem cells are pluripotent or that they lose spermatogenic potential after conversion into pluripotent stem cells. To examine this issue, we analyzed the developmental fate of a single spermatogonial stem cell that appeared during transfection experiments. After transfection of a neomycin-resistance gene into germline stem cells, we obtained an embryonic stem-like, multipotent germline stem cell line. Southern blot analysis revealed that the germline stem and multipotent germline stem clones have the same transgene integration pattern, demonstrating their identical origin. The two lines, however, have different DNA methylation patterns. The multipotent germline stem cells formed chimeras after blastocyst injection but did not produce sperm after germ cell transplantation, whereas the germline stem cells could produce only spermatozoa and did not differentiate into somatic cells. Interestingly, the germline stem cells expressed several transcription factors (Pou5f1, Sox2, Myc, and Klf4) required for reprogramming fibroblasts into a pluripotent state, suggesting that they are potentially pluripotent. Thus, our study provides evidence that a single spermatogonial stem cell can acquire pluripotentiality but that conversion into a pluripotent cell type is accompanied by loss of spermatogenic potential. © 2008 by the Society for the Study of Reproduction, Inc.

    Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play important roles in the process of ultraviolet-induced skin damage or photoaging. Although many enzymatic and chemical methods have been developed for evaluating ROS, evaluation methods for ROS generation in living systems are quite limited. Here we propose a unique system to visualize UVB-induced ROS and investigate the biological impact of ROS. In brief, a human skin equivalent model (HSEM) was exposed to UVB. Emitted luminescence from the HSEM was visualized and semi-quantified by using a chemiluminescent probe (CLA) and an ultra low-light imaging apparatus. The effects of anti-oxidative compounds such as ascorbate, β-carotene, superoxide dismutase (SOD), and yeast ferment filtrate (YFF) on the HSEM were evaluated by semi-quantification of emitted chemiluminescence (CL) intensities, MTT assay and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) staining. Visualization of time- and space-dependent dynamics of ROS generation in the HSEM was successfully achieved by utilizing a sensitive two-dimensional ultra-low light luminograph. Treatments with β-carotene and SOD effectively suppressed CL intensity, indicating the generation of 1O2 and O 2.- in the HSEM under UVB exposure. Tested anti-oxidative compounds also attenuated UVB-induced CL and ameliorated the induced skin damages in terms of 8-OHdG formation and cell death. As a conclusion, this model is useful for not only visualizing the production of UVB-induced ROS in real-time but also evaluating the efficacy of topically applied anti-oxidative compounds to suppress ROS generation and attenuate sequential chemical and biological responses. © 2007 Springer-Verlag.

    Purpose: Endometriotic cysts are known to transforminto ovarian cancers, such as clear cell and endometrioid carcinomas. We hypothesized that an iron-rich environment produced by the repetition of hemorrhage in the endometriotic cysts during the reproductive period may play a crucial role in carcinogenesis in the cysts through the iron-induced persistent oxidative stress. Experimental Design: Contents of human ovarian cysts, including 21 endometriotic cysts, 4 clear cell carcinomas, and 11 nonendometriotic cysts,were analyzed for the concentrations of free "catalytic" iron, lactose dehydrogenase, potential antioxidant, lipid peroxide, and 8-hydroxy-2′- deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). Iron deposition and 8-OHdG levels were also analyzed histologically. Reactive oxygen species and the mutagenicity of the contents in endometriotic cyst were determined in vitro. Results: The concentration of free iron in endometriotic cysts (100.9 mmol/L) was significantly higher than that in nonendometriotic cysts (0.075 mmol/L; P < 0.01). The average concentrations of lactose dehydrogenase, potential antioxidant, lipidperoxide, and 8-OHdG were also significantly higher in endometriotic cysts (P < 0.01). There was a correlation between the concentration of free iron and that of 8-OHdG (P < 0.01). Histologically, we could observe iron deposits more abundantly in endometriotic cysts than in nonendometriotic cysts (P < 0.01). The level of 8-OHdG in carcinoma associated with endometriosis was higher than that of carcinoma without endometriosis (P < 0.05). In vitro analyses showed that the contents of endometriotic cyst couldproducemore reactiveoxygen species and could induce genemutations more frequently than the contents in the other cysts. Conclusions: Abundant free iron in the contents of endometriotic cysts was strongly associated with greater oxidative stress and frequent DNA mutations. A long-standing history of the RBCs accumulated in the ovarian endometriotic cysts during the reproductive period produces oxidative stress that is a possible cause for the malignant change of the endometriotic cyst. © 2008 American Association for Cancer Research.

    Aim: CYP3A2 is a male-specific isoform of cytochrome P450 enzyme which is expressed abundantly in male rats but not in intact female rats. Having previously reported that hepatic CYP3A2 promotes lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced liver injury in male rats, we further examined the impact of CYP3A on LPS-induced liver injury by comparing intact and hypophysectomized female rats. In hypophysectomized female rats, phenobarbital (PB), a cytochrome P450 inducer, markedly increased the hepatic content and activity of CYP3A1/2, but did not do so in intact rats. CYP2B1 increased to similar levels in PB-treated hypophysectomized and intact rats. Methods: Rats were administered 10 mg/kg LPS intravenously and some were given PB for threedays before LPS injection. Liver injury was analyzed 8h after LPS injection. Results: PB-LPS increased plasma alanine aminotransferase significantly more in hypophysectomized female rats than in intact female rats. Ketoconazole, a CYP3A inhibitor, inhibited the increase of liver injury. Hepatic 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine in nuclei and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins, measured to evaluate oxidative stress by LPS treatment, increased markedly more in PB-treated, hypophysectomized female rats, than in intact female rats. Conclusion: Overexpression of CYP3A aggravated LPS-induced liver injury in rats, apparently through the formation of reactive oxygen species. © 2007 The Japan Society of Hepatology.

    The aim of the study was to establish a 96-well microtiter plate-based reporter gene assay to test the influence of natural compounds on the promoter activities of rat catalase, human glutathione peroxidase and human superoxide dismutase expressed in V79 cells. Luciferase expression vectors with the promoter regions of the genes coding for the three above-mentioned enzymes were constructed and transfected into V79 cells. Thereafter the ability of sodium ascorbate, L-carnitine, catechin, epigallocatechin gallate, genistein, paraquat, quercetin, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate and Trolox to enhance the promoter activities was evaluated. Genistein, paraquat and quercetin led to a statistically significant increase in the glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase gene promoter activities. None of the compounds tested enhanced the catalase gene promoter activity. The reporter gene assay described in this report is easy to perform, fast and allows one to test a high number of compounds and different concentrations of a single compound at the same time.

    Spermatogonial stem cells can convert into embryonic stem (ES) cell-like multipotent germline stem (mGS) cells in vitro and produce germline chimeras by blastocyst microinjection. Although homologous recombination was previously demonstrated in mGS cells, spermatogenesis was not found in chimeras, suggesting that they are not competent for germline modification. Here we conducted detailed analysis of chimeric animals to determine whether mGS cells retain germline potential after genetic manipulation. Spermatozoa that were deficient in the occludin gene could be recovered from animals that were chimeric with mGS cells that underwent homologous recombination. The phenotypes of the occludin knockout (KO) mice were similar to those reported for KO mice produced using ES cells, and the animals showed growth retardation, gastritis and male infertility. Furthermore, we found that heterozygous mGS cells acquire two copies of the G418-resistant genes and become homozygous for the targeted allele by culturing at high concentrations of G418. Cytogenetic analysis showed that the aneuploid mGS cells observed during genetic manipulation were trisomic for chromosome 8 or 11, which is a common chromosomal abnormality in ES cells. Thus, mGS cells can be used to produce KO animals, and this novel method of germline manipulation may prove useful in diverse mammalian species. © 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Recently Welch et al. reported that microRNA (miRNA)-34a functions as a potential tumor suppressor in neuroblastoma cells (Oncogene 26: 5017-22, 2007). Here, we conversely show that miRNA-34a supports cell proliferation in rat oxidative stress-induced renal carcinogenesis and is overexpressed in various types of human cancers. While searching for genetically unstable chromosomal areas in rat renal carcinogenesis, we found the miRNA-34 family reciprocally overexpressed in chromosomal areas with frequent allelic loss. By in situ hybridization and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, cerebral neurons and Purkinje cells showed the highest expression of a major type, miRNA-34a, followed by a variety of endocrine cells and proliferating cells including germinal center lymphocytes and mouse embryonic fibroblasts and stem cells. In contrast, normal renal tubules, hepatocytes and myocardial cells showed faint expression. After 3 weeks of ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)-induced oxidative stress, regenerating renal proximal tubular cells showed high miRNA-34a expression. All of the Fe-NTA-induced rat renal carcinomas and an array of human cancers (151 positive cases of 177) showed high expression of miRNA-34a. Furthermore, knockdown of miRNA-34a with small interfering RNA significantly suppressed proliferation not only of renal carcinoma cells but also of HeLa and MCF7 cells. These results indicate that miRNA-34a overexpression, an acquired trait during carcinogenesis, supports cell proliferation in the majority of cancers suggesting an unexpected link in the cellular metabolism between cancer and neuronal and/or endocrine cells, which warrants further investigation. © 2007 Japanese Cancer Association.

    Ferric nitrilotriacetate induces oxidative renal tubular damage via Fenton-reaction, which subsequently leads to renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in rodents. Here, we used gene expression microarray and array-based comparative genomic hybridization analyses to find target oncogenes in this model. At the common chromosomal region of amplification (4q22) in rat RCCs, we found ptprz1, a tyrosine phosphatase (also known as protein tyrosine phosphatase ζ or receptor tyrosine phosphatase β) highly expressed in the RCCs. Analyses revealed genomic amplification up to eightfold. Despite scarcity in the control kidney, the amounts of PTPRZ1 were increased in the kidney after 3 weeks of oxidative stress, and mRNA levels were increased 16∼552-fold in the RCCs. Network analysis of the expression revealed the involvement of the β-catenin pathway in the RCCs. In the RCCs, dephosphorylated β-catenin was translocated to nuclei, resulting in the expression of its target genes cyclin D1, c-myc, c-jun, fra-1, and CD44. Furthermore, knockdown of ptprz1 with small interfering RNA (siRNA), in FRCC-001 and FRCC-562 cell lines established from the induced RCCs, decreased the amounts of nuclear β-catenin and suppressed cellular proliferation concomitant with a decrease in the expression of target genes. These results demonstrate that chronic oxidative stress can induce genomic amplification of ptprz1, activating β-catenin pathways without the involvement of Wnt signaling for carcinogenesis. Thus, iron-mediated persistent oxidative stress confers an environment for gene amplification. Copyright © American Society for Investigative Pathology.

    Fas-Fas ligand (FasL) interaction and apoptosis are important in the mechanism of allograft rejection. However, the interaction between donor and recipient cells, specifically focusing on antigen-presenting cells (APCs), under various conditions is poorly understood in human liver allografts. FasL expression on APCs, its association with apoptosis, and the origin of apoptotic lymphocytes in human liver allografts were assessed by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization. We found increased expression of FasL on Kupffer cells (KCs) and endothelium in acute cellular rejection (w = 20) and to lesser extent in chronic rejection (n = 6) and septic cholangitis (n = 5) compared with stable grafts and normal controls. In addition, the graft specificity of infiltrating T cells was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction examination of T-cell receptor-γ loci. T-cell apoptosis occurred at a higher rate in acute cellular rejection than in chronic rejection or septic cholangitis. The number of apoptotic bodies derived from recipient lymphocytes correlated with the severity of rejection and was reversed by treatment. FasL+ KCs phagocytosed CD4+ interferon-γ+ T cells, rather dian CD4+ interleukin-4+ T cells, suggesting a role of KCs in regulating CD4+ T-cell subset differentiation. In conclusion, our data suggest that FasL expression on APCs and phagocytosis of apoptotic T cells by FasL+ KCs are indicators of rejec tion activity in human liver allografts.

    LYL1, a member of the class II basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors, is aberrantly expressed in a fraction of human T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Here, we generated transgenic mice ubiquitously overexpressing LYL1 using a construct expressing full-length cDNA driven by a human elongation factor 1α promoter. Four independent lines exhibiting high LYL1 expression were established. Of these transgenic mice, 96% displayed loss of hair with a short kinked tail. Furthermore, 30% of them developed malignant lymphoma, with an average latent period of 352 days. In these mice, histological examination revealed tumor cell infiltration in multiple organs and immunohistochemical analysis showed that the infiltrated tumor cells were either CD3 or CD45R/B220-positive; fluorescence-activated cell sorter analysis indicated that each tumor consisted either of mainly CD4, CD8 double-positive T cells or mature B cells; the clonality of LYL1-induced lymphoma was confirmed by T-cell receptor rearrangement and immunoglobulin heavy-chain gene rearrangement analyses. Mammalian two-hybrid analysis and luciferase assay suggested that excess LYL1 blocked the dimerization of E2A and thus inhibited the regulatory activity of E2A on the CD4 promoter. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction results showed that the expression of certain E2A/HEB target genes was downregulated. Taken together, our results provide direct evidence that aberrant expression of LYL1 plays a role in lymphomagenesis. © 2007 Nature Publishing Group All rights reserved.

    Aerobes, including humans, are consistently exposed to oxidative stress by consuming oxygen. The biological significance of oxidative stress via reactive oxygen and nitrogen species consists of two stages: reversible redox regulation and irreversible oxidative molecular damage, which are sometimes intermingled. During the past decade, many signaling cascades associated with oxidative stress have been discovered. An interaction between Keap1 and the Nrf2 transcription factor is among the most fundamental mechanisms of the defense system against oxidative or similar stress. Furthermore, it became apparent that reactive oxygen species are actively produced through enzymes such as xanthine oxidoreductase and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, reduced (NADPH) oxidases in non-phagocytic cells as well. The role of α-tocopherol solely as an anti-oxidant was also questioned. Now there is a long list of pathological states implicating oxidative stress. At the same time, genome projects on various species have been completed. These efforts convincingly led to a new era of oxidative stress investigation, contributing powerful strategies to select candidate genes or biomolecules. Herein are reviewed recent advances and novel concepts in this field, including oxygenomics. These fruitful results may lead to more accurate and useful pathological diagnosis and more efficient prophylaxis and therapeutic interventions on human diseases. © 2007 The Authors.

    Schwannomas, particularly of vestibular origin, often accompany degenerative hypocellular areas known as Antoni B patterns; however, the detailed mechanism is uncertain. Eosinophilic hyaline droplets (EHD), the substantial nature of which are autophagic vacuoles, preferentially appear in acoustic schwannomas and distribute around areas of Antoni B. We investigated their common background using schwannomas with (15 cases) or without (10 cases) EHD, and demonstrated that EHD showed selective immunoreactivity with an anti-nitrotyrosine antibody, suggesting the overproduction of nitric oxide in this condition. The expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase was emphasized in infiltrating macrophages around hyalinized vessels. Protein-bound 4-hydroxy 2-nonenal, another oxidative stress marker, was detected in Antoni B tissue, but not in EHD. Antibodies to cleaved caspase-3 and single strand DNA, indicators of apoptosis, did not label tumors cells in Antoni B areas as well as EHD-bearing cells. The morphology and the mitotically static state of EHD-laden cells are phenotypically similar to autophagic cell death; however, autophagy in normal cells is a cell survival strategy against starvation, so the possibility remains that EHD are formed in that context. In either case, schwannomas may show a characteristic autophagic change by an endogenous mechanism. Tumor growth in a narrow intracranial space and resultant ischemia by self-oppression were postulated to be an initial event, because ischemia-reperfusion injury is a major source of reactive oxygen species and ischemia is also a potent trigger of autophagy as well as of tissue degeneration. Moreover, potential roles of chemokines and hemosiderosis are discussed. © 2007 Japanese Society of Neuropathology.

    Spermatogonial stem cells have unique properties to self-renew and support spermatogenesis throughout their lifespan. Although glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) has recently been identified as a self-renewal factor for spermatogonial stem cells, the molecular mechanism of spermatogonial stem cell self-renewal remains unclear. In the present study, we assessed the role of the phosphoinositide-3 kinase (P13K)-Akt pathway using a germline stem (GS) cell culture system that allows in vitro expansion of spermatogonial stem cells. Akt was rapidly phosphorylated when GDNF was added to the GS cell culture, and the addition of a chemical inhibitor of P13K prevented GS cell self-renewal. Furthermore, conditional activation of the myristoylated form of Akt-Mer (myr-Akt-Mer) by 4-hydroxy-tamoxifen induced logarithmic proliferation of GS cells in the absence of GDNF for at least 5 months. The myr-Akt-Mer GS cells expressed spermatogonial markers and retained androgenetic imprinting patterns. In addition, they supported spermatogenesis and generated offspring following spermatogonial transplantation into the testes of infertile recipient mice, indicating that they are functionally normal. These results demonstrate that activation of the P13K-Akt pathway plays a central role in the self-renewal division of spermatogonial stem cells.

    Spermatogonial stem cells represent a self-renewing population of spermatogonia, and continuous division of these cells supports spermatogenesis throughout the life of adult male animals. Previous attempts to introduce adenovirus vectors into spermatogenic cells, including spermatogonial stem cells, have failed to yield evidence of infection, suggesting that male germ cells may be resistant to adenovirus infection. In this study we show the feasibility of transducing spermatogonial stem cells by adenovirus vectors. When testis cells from ROSA26 Cre reporter mice were incubated in vitro with a Cre-expressing adenovirus vector, Cre-mediated recombination occurred at an efficiency of 49-76%, and the infected spermatogonial stem cells could reinitiate spermatogenesis after transplantation into seminiferous tubules of infertile recipient testes. No evidence of germ-line integration of adenovirus vector could be found in offspring from infected stem cells that underwent Cre-mediated recombination, which suggests that the adenovirus vector infected the cells but did not stably integrate into the germ line. Nevertheless, these results suggest that adenovirus may inadvertently integrate into the patient's germ line and indicate that there is no barrier to adenovirus infection in spermatogonial stem cells. © 2007 by The National Academy of Sciences of the USA.

    Pax6, a paired homeodomain transcription factor, plays crucial roles in morphogenesis of eye, central nervous system, and pancreatic islets. Recently, heterozygosity for pax6 mutation has been reported in some individuals with glucose intolerance and aniridia. To investigate the role of pax6 for pancreatic islet function, we examined the pancreatic phenotype of small eye rat strain (rSey2) with a point mutation in the pax6 locus resulting in truncated PAX6 proteins. Analyses of the insulin secretory profile of heterozygous rSey2/+ revealed that insulin secretion is significantly increased in response to membrane-depolarizing stimuli such as arginine, tolbutamide, and KCl. The processes of insulin granule exocytosis were suggested to be enhanced in rSey2/+. On the other hand, pancreatic insulin and glucagon content and islet architecture in rSey2/+ showed no significant differences compared to wild-type. These findings indicate differential requirements for pax6 gene dosage in displaying function and maintaining architecture of adult pancreatic islets. © 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    We recently found that pancreatic acinar cells isolated from normal adult mouse can transdifferentiate into insulin-secreting cells in vitro. Using two different animal models of type 1 diabetes, we show here that insulin-secreting cells can also be generated from pancreatic acinar cells of rodents in the diabetic state with absolute insulin deficiency. When pancreatic acinar cells of streptozotocin-treated mice were cultured in suspension in the presence of epidermal growth factor and nicotinamide under low-serum condition, expressions of insulin genes gradually increased. In addition, expressions of other pancreatic hormones, including glucagon, somatostatin, and pancreatic polypeptide, were also induced. Analysis by the Cre/loxP-based direct cell lineage tracing system revealed that these newly made cells originated from amylase-expressing pancreatic acinar cells. Insulin secretion from the newly made cells was significantly stimulated by high glucose and other secretagogues. In addition, insulin-secreting cells were generated from pancreatic acinar cells of Komeda diabetesprone rats, another animal model of type 1 diabetes. The present study demonstrates that insulin-secreting cells can be generated by transdifferentiation from pancreatic acinar cells of rodents in the diabetic state and further suggests that pancreatic acinar cells represent a potential source of autologous transplantable insulin-secreting cells for treatment of type 1 diabetes.

    Spermatogonial stem cells continuously divide in the testis to support spermatogenesis throughout the life of adult male animals. Although very few spermatogonial stem cells are present in vivo, we recently succeeded in expanding these cells in vitro. Germ cells from postnatal testes were able to proliferate in the presence of several types of cytokines, and they formed uniquely shaped colonies of spermatogonia (germline stem or GS cells). These cells reinitiated normal spermatogenesis when transplanted into seminiferous tubules. However, much remains unknown about the contributions of cytokines to successful stem cell culture. In the present study, we examined the role of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) in GS cell culture. We found that the addition of LIF to newborn testis cell culture enhances the formation of germ cell colonies. Ciliary neurotrophic factor, but not oncostatin M, had the same effect, although they both bind to the IL-6ST (gp130) receptor. On the other hand, GS cells could be established from pup or adult testes in the absence of LIF. No phenotypic or functional difference was found between CS cells established from different stages, and normal offspring were born from pup-derived GS cells that had been maintained in the absence of LIF, indicating that LIF per se is not involved in the self-renewal of GS cells. These results demonstrate that LIF is useful in the initiation of GS cell culture and suggest that LIF or a related cytokine is involved in the maturation of gonocytes into spermatogonia. © 2007 by the Society for the Study of Reproduction, Inc.

    Arginine rich, mutated in early stage of tumors (ARMET) was first identified as a human gene highly mutated in a variety of cancers. However, little is known about the characteristics of the ARMET protein and its expression. We identified ARMET as a gene upregulated by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Here, we show that the mouse homologue of ARMET is an 18-kDa soluble ER protein that is mature after cleavage of a signal sequence and has four intramolecular disulfide bonds, including two in CXXC sequences. ER stress stimulated ARMET expression, and the expression patterns of ARMET mRNA and protein in mouse tissues were similar to those of Grp78, an Hsp70-family protein required for quality control of proteins in the ER. A reporter gene assay using a mouse ARMET promoter revealed that the unfolded protein response of the ARMET gene is regulated by an ERSE-II element whose sequence is identical to that of the HERP gene. ARMET is the second fully characterized ERSE-II-dependent gene and likely contributes to quality control of proteins in the ER. © 2007 by Japan Society for Cell Biology.

    Angiotensin II (Ang-II) plays pivotal roles in the progression of left ventricular (LV) remodeling in diseased hearts; it remains to be elucidated how Ang-II links to degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Using hypertensive Dahl salt-sensitive rats that show the distinctive transition from concentric LV hypertrophy to LV remodeling, we chronically treated them with an angiotensin type-1 receptor blocker (telmisartan 5 mg/kg/day, ARB group) or vehicle (0.5% CMC, CHF group). During the process of LV remodeling, we assessed, (1) in-vivo LV shape and function; (2) animal survival; (3) amounts of ECM in LV using a scanning electron microscope (SEM); (4) mRNA (by real time RT-PCR) and protein (by immunoblotting) levels in LV of NADPH oxidase, glutathione peroxidase-1 (GPX-1), and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, -9, and -13; (5) immunohistochemical staining of myocardial 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine; (6) nuclear factor kappa-B (NFκB) protein levels in the nuclear extract; and (7) endogenous activities of MMP-2 and -9 by an antibody capture method. Compared with CHF, ARB group showed an improvement of survival and preserved LV shape and function, and ECM density in SEM that was accompanied by decreases in oxidative stress-mediated protein degenerations, activities of GPX-1, NADPH oxidase, NFκB, and MMP-2, -9, and -13. Local activation of Ang-II in hypertrophic LV triggers MMP-mediated ECM degradation, namely LV remodeling, at least in part, through NADPH oxidase-induced oxidative stress and the subsequent NFκB activation. © 2006 Elsevier Inc.

    An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), induces oxidative renal proximal tubular damage that subsequently leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma in rodents, presenting an intriguing model of free radical-induced carcinogenesis. In the present study, we used gpt delta transgenic mice, which allow efficient detection of point mutations and deletions in vivo, to evaluate the mutation spectra, in association with the formation of 8-oxoguanine and acrolein-modified adenine during the first 3 weeks of carcinogenesis. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed the highest levels of 8-oxoguanine and acrolein-modifed adenine in the renal proximal tubules after 1 week of repeated administration. DNA immunoprecipitation and quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis showed that the relative abundance of 8-oxoguanine and acrolein-modified adenine at the gpt reporter gene were increased at the first week in the kidney. Similarly, in both 6-thioguanine and Spi- selections performed on the renal specimens after Fe-NTA administration, the mutant frequencies were increased in the Fe-NTA-treated mice at the first week. Further analyzes of 79 mutant clones and 93 positive plaques showed a high frequency of G:C pairs as preferred targets for point mutation, notably G:C to C:G transversion-type mutation followed by deletion, and of large-size (>1 kilobase) deletions with short homologous sequences in proximity to repeated sequences at the junctions. The results demonstrate that the iron-based Fenton reaction is mutagenic in vivo in the renal tubular cells and induces characteristic mutations. © 2006 Japanese Cancer Association.

    Oxidative stress is a persistent threat to the genome and is associated with major causes of human mortality, including cancer, atherosclerosis, and aging. Here we established a method to generate libraries of genomic DNA fragments containing oxidatively modified bases by using specific monoclonal antibodies to immunoprecipitate enzyme-digested genome DNA. We applied this technique to two different base modifications, 8-hydroxyguanine and 1,N 6-propanoadenine (acrotein-Ade), in a ferric nitrilotriacetate- induced murine renal carcinogenesis model. Renal cortical genomic DNA derived from 10- to 12-week-old male C57BL/6 mice, of untreated control or 6 hours after intraperitoneal injection of 3 mg iron/kg ferric nitrilotriacetate, was enzyme digested, immunoprecipitated, cloned, and mapped to each chromosome. The results revealed that distribution of the two modified bases was not random but differed in terms of chromosomes, gene size, and expression, which could be partially explained by chromosomal territory. In the wild-type mice, low GC content areas were more likely to harbor the two modified bases. Knockout of OGG1, a repair enzyme for genomic 8-hydroxyguanine, increased the amounts of acrolein-Ade as determined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction analyses. This versatile technique would introduce a novel research area as a high-throughput screening method for critical genomic loci under oxidative stress.

    Pre-administration of α-tocopherol is protective against oxidative renal tubular damage and subsequent carcinogenesis by ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) in rats. We searched for mechanisms other than the scavenging effect of α-tocopherol with microarray analyses, which implicated calnexin, a chaperone for glycoproteins. Renal mRNA levels of calnexin significantly increased 3 h after an injection of Fe-NTA in rats fed a standard diet whereas those fed an α-tocopherol-supplemented diet showed an increase prior to injection, but after injection showed a decrease in renal calnexin mRNA levels, with unaltered protein levels. In experiments using LLC-PK1 cells, addition of α-tocopherol was protective against oxidative stress by H2O2, concomitant with calnexin induction. Knockdown of calnexin by siRNA significantly reduced this protection. Furthermore, COS-7 cells transfected with the calnexin gene were more resistant to H2O2. Together with the fact that α-tocopherol induced N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase 3, our data suggest that α-tocopherol modifies glycoprotein metabolism partially by conferring mild ER stress. This adds another molecular mechanism of α-tocopherol toward cancer prevention. © 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Oxidative stress is associated with carcinogenesis. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species contribute to the accumulation of mutations in the genome, presumably followed by selective processes. Recent data suggest that preferred signaling pathways exist for oxidative stress-associated carcinogenesis. Whether this completely depends on random mutations induced by reactive species or whether instead some fragile genomic loci are sensitive to oxidative damage in association with changes of transcriptional activity or other topologic or non-topologic effects remains to be explored. Reliable markers for oxidative stress as well as for oxidative stress-induced preneoplastic lesions must be established. © Mary Ann Liebert, Inc.

    Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that oxidative stress associated with a variety of pathological conditions is one of the major causes of carcinogenesis. Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species contribute to genomic alterations, presumably followed by selection of the best-adapted proliferating cells in a given environment. Recent data suggest that there exist common signaling pathways for oxidative stress-associated carcinogenesis. So far, oxidative DNA damage has been assumed to be randomly distributed based on in vitro experiments, and localization of oxidative DNA damage in the genome in vivo has rarely been studied. However, by the use of novel techniques in combination with constructed genome databases, it was found that the localization of oxidative DNA appears to be not random in vivo. We propose to call this rather novel research area "oxygenomics". Not a few signaling pathways start from the recognition of DNA damage. Possible underlying principles should be elucidated in association with cell type, the function of each genomic location, and its transcriptional activity as well as chromatin status determining epigenetic information. Furthermore, this concept may contribute to the development of novel oxidative stress biomarkers. Thus, oxygenomics is a promising research area.

    Stem cells represent a unique population of cells with self-renewal capacity. Although they are important therapeutic targets, the genetic manipulation of tissue-specific stem cells has been limited, which complicates the study and practical application of these cells. Here, we demonstrate successful gene trapping and homologous recombination in spermatogonial stem cells. Cultured spermatogonial stem cells were transfected with gene trap or gene targeting vectors. Mutagenized stem cells were expanded clonally by drug selection. These cells underwent spermatogenesis and produced heterozygous offspring after transplantation into the seminiferous tubules of infertile mouse testes. Heterozygous mutant mice were intercrossed to produce homozygous gene knockouts. Using this strategy, the efficiency of homologous recombination for the occludin gene locus was 1.7% using a nonisogenic DNA construct. These results demonstrate the feasibility of altering genes in tissue-specific stem cells in a manner similar to embryonic stem cells and have important implications for gene therapy and animal transgenesis. © 2006 by The National Academy of Sciences of the USA.

    Spermatogenesis originates from a small number of spermatogonial stem cells that reside on the basement membrane and undergo self-renewal division to support spermatogenesis throughout the life of adult animals. Although the recent development of a technique to culture spermatogonial stem cells allowed reproduction of self-renewal division in vitro, much remains unknown about how spermatogonial stem cells are regulated. In this study, we found that spermatogonial stem cells could be cultured in an anchorage-independent manner, which is characteristic of stem cells from other types of self-renewing tissues. Although the cultured cells grew slowly (doubling time, ∼4.7 days), they expressed markers of spermatogonia, and crew exponentially for at least 5 months to achieve 1.5 × 1010-fold expansion. The cultured cells underwent spermatogenesis following transplantation into the seminiferous tubules of infertile animals and fertile offspring were obtained by microinsemination of germ cells that had developed within the testes of recipients of the cultured cells. These results indicate that spermatogonial stem cells can undergo anchorage-independent, self-renewal division, and suggest that stem cells have the common property to survive and proliferate in the absence of exogenous substrata. © 2006 by the Society for the Study of Reproduction, Inc.

    Aim: To investigate the extent of oxidative stress in preneoplastic and neoplastic gastric mucosa in relation to their pathological criteria and histological subtypes. Methods: A total of 104 gastric adenocarcinomas from 98 patients (88 infiltrative and 16 intraepithelial tumors) were assessed immunohistochemically for expression of iNOS and occurrence of nitrotyrosine (NTYR)-containing proteins and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG)-containing DNA, as markers of NO production and damages to protein and DNA. Results: Tumor cells staining for iNOS, NTYR and 8-OH-dG were detected in 41%, 62% and 50% of infiltrative carcinoma, respectively. The three markers were shown for the first time in intraepithelial carcinoma. The expression of iNOS was significantly more frequent in tubular carcinoma (TC) compared to diffuse carcinoma (DC) (54% vs 18%; P=0.008) or in polymorphous carcinoma (PolyC) (54% vs 21%; P=0.04). NTYR staining was obviously more often found in TC than that in PolyC (72% vs 30%; P=0.03). There was a tendency towards a higher rate of iNOS staining when distant metastasis (pM) was present. In infiltrative TC, the presence of oxidative stress markers was not significantly correlated with histological grade, density of inflammation, the depth of infiltration (pT), lymph nodes dissemination (pN) and pathological stages (pTNM). Conclusion: The iNOS-oxidative pathway may play an important role in TC, but moderately in PolyC and DC. DNA oxidation and protein nitration occur in the three subtypes. Based on the significant differences of NTYR levels, TC and PolyC appear as two distinct subtypes. © 2006 The WJG Press. All rights reserved.

    N-Glycan structures on the surface of cancer cells have diverse structures and play significant roles in metastatic process. However, little is known about their roles in organ-selective metastasis. Our study revealed that an α1,6-fucosylated biantennary N-glycan structure designated A2G2F is characteristic of lungs, with far more abundant expression in normal human and murine lungs than in other organs. In this study, we further examined the role of A2G2F in pulmonary metastasis. We stained metastatic cancers by α1,6-fucose-specific Lens culinaris agglutinin lectin and revealed that pulmonary metastatic nodules more abundantly expressed α1,6-fucosylated N-glycans than hepatic metastatic nodules from common primary cancers. The most specific α1,6-fucosylated N-glycan structure in pulmonary metastatic cancer was identified to be A2G2F. Using a B16 melanoma cell metastasis model, we showed that A2G2F-rich B16 cells formed more pulmonary metastatic nodules than A2G2F-poor cells. Our results suggest that A2G2F plays a critical role in pulmonary metastasis. © 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    「フリーラジカル・活性酸素による負荷から、抗酸化分子・抗酸化酵素・修復酵素などを介した消去・防御・修復能を差し引いたもの」が酸化ストレスの概念である。ここでは、発がんおよびがん領域における酸化ストレス研究の現状ならびにどのようなアプローチが可能かに関して新旧併せて紹介する。私たちは、鉄キレート剤投与によりFenton反応を尿細管にひき起こす腎傷害・発がんモデルを詳細に検討してきた。通常のパラフィン包埋標本上で酸化ストレスの可視化が可能となったのは90年代になってからであった。フリーラジカル反応で特異的に発生しかつ標本内に固定される epitopeに対する抗体を作製がなされた。脂質過酸化最終産物の一つである4-hydroxy-2-nonenalがMichael付加反応で蛋白と反応したhemiacetal構造、DNA修飾塩基である8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosineやacrolein-deoxyadenosineが代表的 epitope である。これらの方法は既に定法として酸化ストレス病態の解析に広く使用されている。フリーラジカルはその反応性の高さより近傍にある分子と反応するため、反応選択性は低いと考えられてきた。私たちは、上記腎がんモデルにおいてF<SUB>1</SUB>動物を使用して遺伝学的解析を行い、主な標的遺伝子のひとつがp16<SUP>INK4A </SUP>がん抑制遺伝子であることを見いだした。しかもその変化は初期に発生する。発がんにおいては選択という要素があるが、フリーラジカルの反応は生体内において、特異的な表現型となりうることが判明してきた。最後に、がん発生の起点であるゲノム情報の変化に関して私たちがoxygenomicsと呼ぶ新しいアプローチを紹介する。<BR>参考文献:1.

    The aim of the present study was to determine whether imidapril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, prevents diabetic nephropathy and to determine the effect of imidapril on oxidative damage in the diabetic glomeruli in mice. We used female BKS.cg-m+Leprdb/+Leprdb (db/db) mice, a rodent model of type 2 diabetes, and their non-diabetic db/m littermates. The mice were divided into the following four groups: non-diabetic db/m, diabetic db/db, and diabetic db/db treated with imidapril at doses of 1 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg. Blood glucose level, body weight, urinary albumin, and urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) were measured during the experiments. Histological and 8-OHdG immunohistochemical studies were performed for 12 weeks from the beginning of treatment. After 12 weeks of treatment, the levels of blood glucose and the body weight were not significantly different between the imidapril-treated group and the non-treated db/db group. The systolic blood pressure was significantly increased in db/db mice compared with db/m mice. The increased blood pressure was significantly reduced by the treatment with imidapril at a dose of 5 mg/kg. The relative mesangial area calculated by the mesangial area/total glomerular area ratio was significantly ameliorated in the imidapril-treated group compared with the non-treated db/db group. The increases in urinary albumin and 8-OHdG at 12 weeks of treatment were significantly inhibited by chronic treatment with imidapril in a dose-dependent manner. The 8-OHdG immunoreactive cells in the glomeruli of non-treated db/db mice were more numerous than in the imidapril-treated db/db mice. In conclusion, imidapril prevented the progression of diabetic nephropathy in mice, not only by decreasing the glomerular pressure but also by decreasing the oxidative stress in glomerular cells.

    4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), a major lipid peroxidation product, reacts with histidine, lysine or cysteine residues of proteins to form hemiacetal Michael adducts and thus interferes with the functions of the proteins. Here we undertook to identify HNE-modified proteins in the target organ of a ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)-induced renal carcinogenesis model with histidine-specific HNEJ-2 antibody. Immunoaffinity column separation and sequencing identified one of the major modified proteins as actin. To further explore the characteristics of actin as an HNE acceptor, we produced four novel monoclonal antibodies against HNE-modified keyhole limpet hemocyanin. All these antibodies (HNEJ-1, 3-5) recognized histidine adducts, but were different from HNEJ-2 in recognizing lysine and cysteine adducts to some extent. Actin, albumin, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), metallothionein and superoxide dismutase were treated in vitro with HNE and evaluated with these antibodies. The results revealed that actin was most sensitive to HNE modification and metallothionein most resistant. Furthermore, the residue-specificity of GAPDH was in accord with that shown by our recent mass spectrometry data. Immunohistochemistry with the antibodies revealed cytoplasmic staining with or without nuclear staining in the renal proximal tubules after Fe-NTA administration. The results suggest that actin is a major target protein for HNE modification in vivo, and that our monoclonal antibodies are useful for evaluating the HNE adducts produced. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.

    Baculovirus p35 protein protects cells from apoptotic cell death by inhibiting caspase activation. We have established transgenic mouse lines specifically expressing p35 in cardiomyocytes, and primary cardiomyocytes isolated from these mice exhibit resistance to staurosporine-induced apoptosis. In a previous study, we observed defects in heart formation associated with abdominal hemorrhage and cardiomyocyte cell death in caspase-8-deficent animals. In order to better understand the etiology of the cardiac defects and embryonic lethality in caspase-8-deficient mice, we crossed these mice with the p35 transgenic animals. Although the newly generated mice still died in utero and exhibited some cardiac defects, cardiomyocyte apoptosis was suppressed and ventricular trabeculation was restored. Thus, cardiomyocyte expression of p35 prevented cell death induced by staurosporine or caspase-8 deficiency. Additionally, our data suggest that caspase-8 plays multiple roles in cardiac development. © Springer 2005.

    Baculovirus p 35 protein protects cells from apoptotic cell death by inhibiting caspase activation. We have established transgenic mouse lines specifically expressing p 35 in cardiomyocytes, and primary cardiomyocytes isolated from these mice exhibit resistance to staurosporine-induced apoptosis. In a previous study, we observed defects in heart formation associated with abdominal hemorrhage and cardiomyocyte cell death in caspase-8-deficient animals. In order to better understand the etiology of the cardiac defects and embryonic lethality in caspase-8-deficient mice, we crossed these mice with the p 35 transgenic animals. Although the newly generated mice still died in utero and exhibited some cardiac defects, cardiomyocyte apoptosis was suppressed and ventricular trabeculation was restored. Thus, cardiomyocyte expression of p 35 prevented cell death induced by staurosporine or caspase-8 deficiency. Additionally, our data suggest that caspase-8 plays multiple roles in cardiac development.

    Thioredoxin-1 (TRX-1) is a redox-active protein involved in scavenging reactive oxygen species and regulating redox-sensitive transcription factors. TRX-1 is induced in various inflammatory conditions and shows cytoprotective action. We investigated the roles of TRX-1 in the host defense mechanism against Helicobacter felis (H. felis) infection. Transgenic (TG) mice overexpressing human TRX-1 and wild-type (WT) mice were orally inoculated with H. felis. After 2 months, histology, oxidative damage, and gene expression of several cytokines, including macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2), a murine equivalent to interleukin (IL)-8, in the gastric mucosa were investigated. Furthermore, the effects of TRX-1 on oxidative stress and neutrophil migration were studied both in vivo and in vitro. The gastric mucosa was thickened in H. felis-infected WT mice, but not in infected TRX-1-TG mice. Histologically, all H. felis-infected WT mice developed moderate-to-severe gastritis, whereas the development of gastritis was significantly suppressed in infected TRX-1-TG mice. Oxidative damage markers, 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine and malondialdehyde, increased in the stomach of infected WT mice, but not TRX-1-TG mice. Upregulation of IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α gene expression in H. felis-infected TRX-1-TG mice was significantly lower than in WT mice. However, upregulation of MIP-2 and IL-7 was not different between the two groups. TRX-1 suppressed oxidative cytotoxicity and DNA damage, and inhibited neutrophil migration both in vivo and in vitro. The present study suggests that overexpression of TRX-1 suppresses H. felis-induced gastritis by inhibiting chemotaxis of neutrophils and reducing oxidative stress. © 2005 USCAP, Inc All Rights Reserved.

    Although stem cells are believed to divide infinitely by self-renewal division, there is little evidence that demonstrates their infinite replicative potential. Spermatogonial stem cells are the founder cell population for spermatogenesis. Recently, in vitro culture of spermatogonial stem cells was described. Spermatogonial stem cells can be expanded in vitro in the presence of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), maintaining the capacity to produce spermatogenesis after transplantation into testis. Here, we examined the stability and proliferative capacity of spermatogonial stem cells using cultured cells. Spermatogonial stem cells were cultured over 2 years and achieved ∼1085-fold expansion. Unlike other germline cells that often acquire genetic and epigenetic changes in vitro, spermatogonial stem cells retained the euploid karyotype and androgenetic imprint during the 2-year experimental period, and produced normal spermatogenesis and fertile offspring. However, the telomeres in spermatogonial stem cells gradually shortened during culture, suggesting that they are not immortal. Nevertheless, the remarkable stability and proliferative potential of spermatogonial stem cells suggest that they have a unique machinery to prevent transmission of genetic and epigenetic damages to the offspring, and these characteristics make them an attractive target for germline modification.

    Background: Stem cells interact closely with their microenvironment or niche, and abnormalities in niche compromise the self-renewing tissue. In testis, for example, Sertoli cells interact with germ cells, and defects in Sertoli cells compromises spermatogenesis, leading to male infertility. However, it has not been possible to restore spermatogenesis from endogenous stem cells in infertile testis with environmental defects. Methods and results: When healthy Sertoli cells from infertile white spotting (W) mouse were transplanted into the seminiferous tubules of infertile Steel (Sl) mouse testis that had defective Sertoli cells, spermatogenesis occurred from Sl stem cells in the recipient testis. On average, 1.1% of the recipient tubules showed spermatogenesis. Furthermore, in a microinsemination experiment with germ cells that developed in the testis, we obtained four normal offspring from 114 successfully injected oocytes. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that defects in male germline microenvironment can be corrected by Sertoli cell transplantation. Although further improvements are required to enhance the low efficiency of spermatogenesis, the ability to correct environmental defect by niche transplantation has important implications in developing new strategies for treating incurable disorders in self-renewing tissues. © The Author 2005.

    The neural precursor cell-specific marker nestin is expressed in fetal and adult pancreas, but its role is not fully understood. Using nestin-enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) transgenic mice and fluorescence activated cell sorter, we characterized nestin-positive cells in adult mice pancreas. EGFP mRNA- and protein-positive cells expressed amylase, a pancreatic exocrine marker. Interestingly, EGFP mRNA-negative and protein-positive cells expressed insulin, glucagon, somatostatin and pancreatic polypeptide, pancreatic endocrine markers. These findings demonstrate that nestin-positive cells comprise a portion of pancreatic exocrine cells and suggest that they can be differentiated into pancreatic endocrine cells.

    Although diabetic animal models exist, no single animal model develops renal changes identical to those seen in humans. Here we show that transgenic mice that overexpress inducible cAMP early repressor (ICER Iγ) in pancreatic β cells are a good model to study the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. Although ICER Iγ transgenic mice exhibit extremely high blood glucose levels throughout their lives, they survive long enough to develop diabetic nephropathy. Using this model we followed the progress of diabetic renal changes compared to those seen in humans. By 8 weeks of age, the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was already increased, and glomerular hypertrophy was prominent. At 20 weeks, GFR reached its peak, and urine albumin excretion rate was elevated. Finally, at 40 weeks, diffuse glomerular sclerotic lesions were prominently accompanied by increased expression of collagen type IV and laminin and reduced expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2. Nodular lesions were absent, but glomerular basement membrane thickening was prominent. At this point, GFR declined and urinary albumin excretion rate increased, causing a nephrotic state with lower serum albumin and higher serum total cholesterol. Thus, similar to human diabetic nephropathy, ICER Iγ transgenic mice exhibit a stable and progressive phenotype of diabetic kidney disease due solely to chronic hyperglycemia without other modulating factors.

    We have previously reported that calcium ionophore A23187 differentially induces necrosis in CEM cells, a T-lymphoblastic leukemia cell line, and apoptosis in HL60 cells, a promyelocytic leukemia cell line. Stimulation with VP16, however, induces typical apoptosis in both cell lines. Necrosis in CEM cells, characterized by cell shrinkage and clustering, began within 5 min of treatment. Swelling of the mitochondria, lumpy chromatin condensation and intact plasma membranes were evident by electron microscopy. These A23187-mediated changes in CEM cells were suppressed by clonazepam or CGP37157, inhibitors of the mitochondrial Na+/Ca2+ exchanger. The changes, however, were not affected by cyclosporin A, an inhibitor of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore. In both CEM and HL60 cells, intra-cellular calcium increased with similar amplitude within 1 min of treatment with 2 μM A23187. Intra-mitochondrial calcium increased with clonazepam pre-treatment alone in both CEM and HL60 cells. However, intra-mitochondrial calcium did not change drastically in response to A23187 in CEM or HL60 cells, either untreated or pre-treated with clonazepam. A23187 induces necrosis in CEM cells concurrent with mitochondrial dysfunction, which is independent of the mitochondrial permeability transition, but affected by intra-mitochondrial calcium, while HL60 cells lack these early changes. Differences in the responses to A23187 between these two cell lines might derive from differences in the susceptibility of the mitochondrial membrane to rapid increases in intra-cellular calcium. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.

    Thioredoxin is a major component of thiol-reducing system. Recently, we identified thioredoxin-binding protein-2 (TBP-2) as a negative regulator of thioredoxin. Here, we report the role of TBP-2 in oxidative renal tubular injury and the subsequent carcinogenesis by ferric nitrilotriacetate. TBP-2 was abundantly expressed in the rat kidney. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that TBP-2 was present in association with nuclei and mitochondrial intermembrane space in the proximal tubular cells and coimmunoprecipitated with cytochrome c. After acute oxidative tubular damage, TBP-2 protein, but not messenger RNA, markedly decreased, demonstrating shortened half-life of this protein. Most cases of the induced renal cell carcinoma showed undetectable levels of TBP-2 protein, which was associated with the methylation of CpG island in the promoter region. Genome sequence analyses identified the poly-A tract in the 3′ untranslated region as a mutation hot spot in this rather nonselective environment. Collectively, the amounts of TBP-2 protein were inversely associated with proliferation of tubular cells, as evaluated by proliferating cell nuclear antigen. These results suggest that loss of TBP-2 is essential for proliferation of not only neoplastic but also non-neoplastic renal tubular cells, and that TBP-2 is a target gene in oxidative stress-induced renal carcinogenesis by ferric nitrilotriacetate. © 2005 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved.

    Objective. The LIM-finger protein LMO2 forms a transcription factor complex with other hematopoietic regulator proteins, such as TAL1 (SCL), LDB1, GATA1, 2, and 3, in the promoters of several erythroid genes. To elucidate the functional role of two LIM domains in LMO2, we introduced deletion or mutation in each of the LIM domains and analyzed their phenotypic effects on the hematopoietic system when overexpressed in vivo or in vitro. Materials and Methods. Protein interactions of LIM-modified LMO2 constructs with TAL1, LDB1, and GATAs were examined in an immunoprecipitation assay. In vivo hematopoiesis in transgenic mice with wild-type and LIM-modified Lmo2 was studied morphologically and by measuring the progenitor cells in fetal liver. Their effects on the erythroid differentiation of the dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)-induced murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells were evaluated. Results. Deletion of the LIM2 domain, but not of the LIM1 domain, abolished its binding of GATA proteins. Overexpression of wild-type LMO2 is known to have dominant negative inhibitory effects on erythropoietic development. Enforced expression of LMO2 constructs with mutant or absent LIM2 but with an intact LIM1 domain resulted in fetal death, small livers and hearts, and decreased hematopoiesis, as well as a hypoplastic thymus. DMSO-induced erythroid differentiation of the MEL cells was inhibited by the overexpressed LMO2 with mutant LIM2 but not by the LMO2 with modified LIM1. Conclusion. Overexpression of the LMO2 with modified LIM2 inhibited hematopoiesis probably by interfering with the formation of the physiological complex or by replacing the functional LMO2 with mutants with reduced affinity to GATA proteins. In this experiment, no evident effect of the LMO2 with modified LIM1 could be observed. © 2005 International. Society for Experimental Hematology. Published by Elsevier Inc.

    We developed and analyzed two types of transgenic mice: rat insulin II promoter-ghrelin transgenic (RIP-G Tg) and rat glucagon promoter-ghrelin transgenic mice (RGP-G Tg). The pancreatic tissue ghrelin concentration measured by C-terminal radioimmunoassay (RIA) and plasma desacyl ghrelin concentration of RIP-G Tg were about 1000 and 3.4 times higher than those of nontransgenic littermates, respectively. The pancreatic tissue n-octanoylated ghrelin concentration measured by N-terminal RIA and plasma n-octanoylated ghrelin concentration of RIP-G Tg were not distinguishable from those of nontransgenic littermates. RIP-G Tg showed suppression of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. Arginine-stimulated insulin secretion, pancreatic insulin mRNA and peptide levels, β cell mass, islet architecture, and GLUT2 and PDX-1 immunoreactivity in RIP-G Tg pancreas were not significantly different from those of nontransgenic littermates. Islet batch incubation study did not show suppression of insulin secretion of RIP-G Tg in vitro. The insulin tolerance test showed lower tendency of blood glucose levels in RIP-G Tg. Taking lower tendency of triglyceride level of RIP-G Tg into consideration, these results may indicate that the suppression of insulin secretion is likely due to the effect of desacyl ghrelin on insulin sensitivity. RGP-G Tg, in which the pancreatic tissue ghrelin concentration measured by C-RIA was about 50 times higher than that of nontransgenic littermates, showed no significant changes in insulin secretion, glucose metabolism, islet mass, and islet architecture. The present study raises the possibility that desacyl ghrelin may have influence on glucose metabolism. © 2005 by The American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Inc.

    Spermatogonial stem cells are the only stem cells in the body that transmit genetic information to the next generation. These cells can be cultured for extended periods in the presence of serum and feeder cells. However, little is known about factors that regulate self-renewal division of spermatogonial stem cells. In this investigation we examined the possibility of establishing culture systems for spermatogonial stem cells that lack serum or a feeder cell layer. Spermatogonial stem cells could expand in serum-free conditions on mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), or were successfully cultivated without feeder cells on a laminin-coated plate. However, they could not expand when both serum and feeder cells were absent. Although the cells cultured on laminin differed phenotypically from those on feeder cells, they grew exponentially for at least 6 mo, and produced normal, fertile progeny following transplantation into infertile mouse testis. This culture system will provide a new opportunity for understanding the regulatory mechanism that governs spermatogonial stem cells. © 2005 by the Society for the Study of Reproduction, Inc.

    Spermatogenesis originates from a small population of spermatogonial stem cells. These cells are believed to divide infinitely and support spermatogenesis throughout life in the male. In this investigation, we examined the possibility of deriving transgenic offspring from single spermatogonial stem cells. Spermatogonial stem cells were transfected in vitro with a plasmid vector containing a drug resistant gene. Stably transfected stem cell clones were isolated by in vitro drug selection; these clones were expanded and used to produce transgenic progeny following spermatogonial transplantation into infertile recipients. An average of 49% of the offspring carried the transgene, and the recipient mice continued to produce monoclonal transgenic progeny a year after transplantation. Thus, a somatic cell-based genetic approach can be used to modify and select clones of spermatogonial stem cells in a manner similar to embryonic stem cells. The feasibility of genetic selection using postnatal spermatogonial stem cells demonstrates their extensive proliferative potential and provides the opportunity to develop new methods for generating stable animal transgenics or for germline gene therapy.

    Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are derived from a population of pluripotent epiblast cells in mice. However, little is known about when and how PGCs acquire the capacity to differentiate into functional germ cells, while keeping the potential to derive pluripotent embryonic germ cells and teratocarcinomas. In this investigation, we show that epiblast cells and PGCs can establish colonies of spermatogenesis after transfer into postnatal seminiferous tubules of surrogate infertile mice. Furthermore, we obtained normal fertile offspring by microinsemination using spermatozoa or spermatids derived from PGCs harvested from fetuses as early as 8.5 days post coitum. Thus, fetal male germ cell development is remarkably flexible, and the maturation process, from epiblast cells through PGCs to postnatal spermatogonia, can occur in the postnatal testicular environment. Primordial germ cell transplantation techniques will also provide a novel tool to assess the developmental potential of PGCs, such as those manipulated in vitro or recovered from embryos harboring lethal mutations.

    Oxidative stress is implicated as an important mechanism by which diabetes causes nephropathy. Oxykine is the cantaloupe melon extract rich in vegetal superoxide dismutase covered by polymeric films of wheat matrix gliadin. In this study, we examined whether chronic oral administration of oxykine could prevent the progression of diabetic nephropathy induced by oxidative stress using preclinical rodent model of type 2 diabetes. We used female db/db mice and their non-diabetic db/m littermates. The mice were divided into the following three groups: non-diabetic db/m; diabetic db/db, and diabetic db/db treated with oxykine. Blood glucose level, body weight, urinary albumin, and urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) were measured during the experiments. Histological and 8-OHdG immunohistochemical studies were preformed on 12 weeks from the beginning of treatment. After 12 weeks of treatment, the levels of blood glucose and the body weight were not significantly different between the oxykine-treated group and the non-treated db/db group, however both groups kept significantly high levels rather than db/m mice. The relative mesangial area calculated by mesangial area/total glomerular area ratio was significantly ameliorated in the oxykine treated group compared with non-treated db/db group. The increases in urinary albumin and 8-OHdG at 12 weeks of treatment were significantly inhibited by chronic treatment with oxykine. The 8-OHdG immunoreactive cells in the glomeruli of non-treated db/db mice were more numerous than that of oxykine-treated db/db mice. In this study, treatment of oxykine ameliorated the progression and acceleration of diabetic nephropathy for rodent model of type 2 diabetes. These results indicated that the oxykine reduced the diabetes-induced oxidative stress and renal mesangial cell injury. In conclusion, oxykine might be a novel approach for the prevention of diabetes nephropathy. © 2005 - IOS Press and the authors. All rights reserved.

    The aim of the present study was to determine whether imidapril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, prevents diabetic nephropathy and to determine the effect of imidapril on oxidative damage in the diabetic glomeruli in mice. We used female BKS.cg-m+Lepr(db)/+Lepr(db) (db/db) mice, a rodent model of type 2 diabetes, and their non-diabetic db/m littermates. The mice were divided into the following four groups: non-diabetic db/m, diabetic db/db, and diabetic db/db treated with imidapril at doses of 1 mg/kg and 5 mg/kg. Blood glucose level, body weight, urinary albumin, and urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8OHdG) were measured during the experiments. Histological and 8-OHdG immunohistochemical studies were performed for 12 weeks from the beginning of treatment. After 12 weeks of treatment, the levels of blood glucose and the body weight were not significantly different between the imidapril-treated group and the non-treated db/db group. The systolic blood pressure was significantly increased in db/db mice compared with db/m mice. The increased blood pressure was significantly reduced by the treatment with imidapril at a dose of 5 mg/kg. The relative mesangial area calculated by the mesangial area/total glomerular area ratio was significantly ameliorated in the imidapril-treated group compared with the non-treated db/db group. The increases in urinary albumin and 8-OHdG at 12 weeks of treatment were significantly inhibited by chronic treatment with imidapril in a dose-dependent manner. The 8-OHdG immunoreactive cells in the glomeruli of non-treated db/db mice were more numerous than in the imidapril-treated db/db mice. In conclusion, imidapril prevented the progression of diabetic nephropathy in mice, not only by decreasing the glomerular pressure but also by decreasing the oxidative stress in glomerular cells.

    Although germline cells can form multipotential embryonic stem (ES)/embryonic germ (EG) cells, these cells can be derived only from embryonic tissues, and such multipotent cells have not been available from neonatal gonads. Here we report the successful establishment of ES-like cells from neonatal mouse testis. These ES-like cells were phenotypically similar to ES/EG cells except in their genomic imprinting pattern. They differentiated into various types of somatic cells in vitro under conditions used to induce the differentiation of ES cells and produced teratomas after inoculation into mice. Furthermore, these ES-like cells formed germline chimeras when injected into blastocysts. Thus, the capacity to form multipotent cells persists in neonatal testis. The ability to derive multipotential stem cells from the neonatal testis has important implications for germ cell biology and opens the possibility of using these cells for biotechnology and medicine.

    Spermatogonial stem cells are the only stem cells in the postnatal body that can transmit parental genetic information to the offspring, making them an attractive target cell population for animal transgenesis. Although transgenic mice and rats were recently produced by retrovirus transduction of these cells in vitro, with transplantation of the transduced cells into infertile recipients, the difficulty of restoring fertility and preparing recipients using spermatogonial transplantation limits practical application of the technique. In this article, we describe a novel approach for producing transgenic animals by transducing spermatogonial stem cells in vivo using a retrovirus vector. Microinjection of retrovirus into immature seminiferous tubules resulted in the direct transduction of spermatogonial stem cells in situ, and the animals produced transgenic offspring after mating with females. Transgenic mice were produced in C57BL/6, BALB/C, A, and C3H backgrounds, with an average efficiency of 2.8%. The transgene was transmitted stably and expressed in the next generation. The technique overcomes the drawback of the in vitro-transduction approach, and will be useful as a novel method for producing transgenic animals as well as providing a means for analyzing the self-renewal and differentiation processes of spermatogonial stem cells in vivo.

    We carried out this experiment to evaluate the relationship between isoforms of cytochrome P450 (P450) and liver injury in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxemic rats. Male rats were intraperitoneally administered phenobarbital (PB), a P450 inducer, for 3 days, and 1 day later, they were intravenously given LPS. PB significantly increased P450 levels (200% of control levels) and the activities (300-400% of control) of the specific isoforms (CYP), CYP3A2 and CYP2B1, in male rats. Plasma AST and ALT increased slightly more in PB-treated rats than in PB-nontreated (control) rats with LPS treatment. Furthermore, either troleandomycin or ketoconazole, specific CYP3A inhibitors, significantly inhibited LPS-induced liver injury in control and PB-treated male rats. To evaluate the oxidative stress in LPS-treated rats, in situ superoxide radical detection using dihydroethidium (DHE), hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified proteins in liver microsomes and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in liver nuclei were measured in control and PB-treated rats. DHE signal intensity, levels of HNE-modified proteins, and 8-OHdG increased significantly in PB-treated rats. LPS further increased DHE intensity, HNE-modified proteins, and 8-OHdG levels in normal and PB-treated groups. CYP3A inhibitors also inhibited the increases in these items. Our results indicate that the induction or preservation of CYP isoforms further promotes LPS-induced liver injury through mechanisms related to oxidative stress. In particular, CYP3A2 of P450 isoforms made an important contribution to this LPS-induced liver injury. © 2004 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Objective: ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels in pancreatic β-cells are crucial in the regulation of glucose-induced insulin secretion. Recently, KATP channel-deficient mice were generated by genetic disruption of Kir6.2, the pore-forming component of KATP channels, but the mice still showed a significant insulin response after oral glucose loading in vivo. Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) is a physiological incretin that stimulates insulin release upon ingestion of nutrients. To determine if GIP is the insulinotropic factor in insulin secretion in KATP channel-deficient mice, we generated double-knockout Kir6.2 and GIP receptor null mice and compared them with Kir6.2 knockout mice. Methods: Double-knockout mice were generated by intercrossing Kir6.2-knockout mice with GIP receptor-knockout mice. An oral glucose tolerance test, insulin tolerance test and batch incubation study of pancreatic islets were performed on double-knockout mice and Kir6.2-knockout mice. Results: Fasting glucose and insulin levels were similar in both groups. After oral glucose loading, blood glucose levels of double-knockout mice became elevated compared with Kir6.2-knockout mice, especially at 15min (345±10mg/dl vs 294±20mg/dl, P<0.05 and 30min (453±20 mg/dl vs 381 ± 26 mg/dl, P < 0.05). The insulin response was almost completely lost in double-knockout mice, although insulin secretion from isolated islets was stimulated by another incretin, glucagon-like peptide-1 in the double-knockout mice. Double-knockout mice and Kir6.2-knockout mice were similarly insulin sensitive as assessed by the insulin tolerance test. Conclusion: GIP is the major insulinotropic factor in the secretion of insulin in response to glucose load in KATP channel-deficient mice. © 2004 Society of the European Journal of Endocrinology.

We investigated the efficacy of a cardioplegic solution containing a PARS inhibitor, 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB), for myocardial protection against ischemia-reperfusion injury caused by cardioplegic arrest. Methods: Isolated hearts were set on a Langendorff apparatus and perfused. The hearts were arrested for 90 min with a cardioplegic solution given at 30-min intervals and then reperfused for 20 min. The hearts of rat in the 3-AB(-) group (n=8) were perfused with a standard cardioplegic solution and terminal warm cardoplegia, whereas the 3-AB(+) group (n=8) received these solutions supplemented with 3-AB (100 μM). Left ventricular function and release of cardiac enzymes were monitored before and after cardioplegic arrest. After reperfusion, NAD+ (nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide) levels were assessed, and the tissues were examined immunohistochemically for oxidative stress and apoptosis. Results: During reperfusion, the 3-AB(+) group showed significantly higher (P=0.005) dp/dt and lower creatine phosphokinase (CPK) level and glucotamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) in the effluent (CPK; P=0.003, GOT; P<0.001). The cardiomyocytes of the 3-AB(+) group also preserved a higher NAD+ level (P<0.001). Immunohistochemical study of oxidative stress revealed a lesser extent (P=0.007) of nuclear staining and a lower fraction of apoptosis in the 3-AB(+) group. Conclusion: Cardioplegic solution supplemented with 3-AB provides efficient myocardial protection in cardioplegic ischemic reperfusion by suppressing oxidative stress and overactivation of PARS. © 2004 Published by Elsevier B.V.

    Adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) is a fatal neoplasm derived from CD4-positive T-lymphocytes, and regardless of intensive chemotherapy, its mean survival time is less than 1 year. Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activation was reported in HTLV-I associated cells, and has been implicated in oncogenesis and resistance to anticancer agents and apoptosis. We studied the effect of a proteasome inhibitor, bortezomib (formerly known as PS-341), on ATL cells in vitro and in vivo. Bortezomib could inhibit the degradation Of IκBα in ATL cells, resulting in suppression of NF-κB and induction of cell death in ATL cells in vitro. Susceptibilities to bortezomib were well correlated with NF-κB activation, suggesting that suppression of the NF-κB pathway was implicated in the cell death induced by bortezomib. Although the majority of the cell death was apoptosis, necrotic cell death was observed in the presence of a caspase inhibitor, z-VAD-fmk. When bortezomib was administered into SCID mice bearing tumors, it suppressed tumor growth in vivo, showing that bortezomib was effective against ATL cells in vivo. These studies revealed that bortezomib is highly effective against ATL cells in vitro and in vivo by induction of apoptosis, and its clinical application might improve the prognosis of patients with this fatal disease. © 2004 Nature Publishing Group All rights reserved.

    Spermatogenesis originates in spermatogonial stem cells, which have the unique mode of replication. It is considered that a single stem cell can produce two stem cells (self-renewing division), one stem and one differentiating (asymmetric division), or two differentiating cells (differentiating division). However, little is known regarding how each type of division is regulated. In this investigation, we focused on the analysis of self-renewing division and examined the effect of the pituitary gland using two models of stem cell self-renewing division. In the first experiment using newborn mice, the administration of GnRH-analogue, which represses the release of gonadotropin, reduced the number of stem cells during postnatal testicular development, suggesting that the pituitary gland enhances stem cell self-renewing division. In the second experiment, however, the number of stem cells increased dramatically in hypophysectomized adult recipients after spermatogonial transplantation. Thus, the pituitary gland affects the self-renewing division of stem cells, but these contradictory results suggest that its role may be different depending on the stage of the testicular development.

    Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are associated not only with initiation, but also with promotion and progression in the multistage carcinogenesis model. In the present review, we will focus on the involvement of ROS in skin carcinogenesis, especially that induced by ultraviolet (UV) radiation. UV-specific DNA damage has been well studied thus far. However, recent reports have revealed the previously unknown participation of oxidative stress in UV-induced skin carcinogenesis. Indeed, in addition to transition-type mutations at dipyrimidine sites, G:C to T:A transversions, which may be induced by the presence of 8-oxoguanine during DNA replication, are frequently observed in the ras oncogene and p53 tumor suppressor gene in human skin cancers of sun-exposed areas and in UV-induced mouse skin cancers. Recent studies have shown that not only UV-B, but also UV-A is involved in UV-induced carcinogenesis. A wide variety of biological phenomena other than direct influence by UV, such as inflammatory and immunological responses and oxidative modifications of DNA and proteins, appear to play roles in UV-induced skin carcinogenesis. Furthermore, it has become clear that genetic diseases such as xeroderma pigmentosum show deficient repair of oxidatively modified DNA lesions. The involvement of ROS in skin carcinogeneisis caused by arsenic and chemical carcinogens will also be discussed.

    Ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) induces oxidative renal damage leading to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in rats. Differential display analysis of such RCCs revealed elevated expression of annexin 2 (Anx2), a substrate for kinases and a receptor for tissue-type plasminogen activator and plasminogen. We conducted this study to clarify the significance of Anx2 in Fenton reaction-based carcinogenesis. Messenger RNA and protein levels of Anx2 were increased time-dependently in the rat kidney after Fe-NTA administration as well as in LLC-PK1 cells after exposure to H2O2. The latter was inhibited by pretreatment with N-acetylcysteine, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate or catalase. Immunohistochemistry revealed negligible staining in the normal renal proximal tubules, but strong staining in regenerating proximal tubules, karyomegalic cells and RCCs. Metastasizing RCCs showed higher Anx2 protein levels. Anx2 was phosphorylated at serine and tyrosine residues in these cells and coimmunoprecipitated with phosphorylated actin. Overexpression of Anx2 induced a higher cell proliferation rate in LLC-PK1 cells. In contrast, a decrease in proliferation leading to apoptosis was observed after Anx2 antisense treatment to cell lines established from Fe-NTA-induced RCCs. These results suggest that Anx2 is regulated by redox status, and that persistent operation of this adaptive mechanism plays a role in the proliferation and metastasis of oxidative stress-induced cancer.

    BACKGROUND: Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) after focal cerebral ischemia reduces infarct size and improves outcome when applied early after stroke. Here, we evaluated effects of HBO on permanent focal cerebral ischemia and applied magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) monitoring to study lesion evolution. METHODS: Rats underwent permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Two hours later, animals were treated with HBO (100% O(2)/2 atm; n=17) for 1 hour or treated with room air (n=17). Animals underwent serial MRI studies (DWI, PI, T2) beginning 90 minutes after MCAO. Neuroscore was assessed (5-point rating scale). Animals were euthanized and brains were 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC)-stained for infarct volume calculation 120 hours after MCAO. Immunohistochemistry was performed with antibodies against c-FOS and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins (HNE) to check for effects of oxidative stress caused by HBO treatment. RESULTS: HBO reduced infarct volume by 38% (P<0.001). As shown by MRI, neuroprotection began 5 hours after ischemia and remained effective for 5 days. The relative regional cerebral blood flow was not different between groups at 3.5 and 5 hours after occlusion. There was less neurological deficit in HBO-treated animals compared with controls (P<0.05). Lipid peroxidation of cerebral vessels after HBO treatment as measured by HNE staining and pattern of c-FOS induction were not significantly different between groups at 3.5 and 8 hours after ischemia. CONCLUSIONS: As monitored by MRI HBO treatment reversed ischemic lesion size between 3 and 5 hours after ischemia and achieved a long-lasting neuroprotective effect without significant oxidative damage.

    Although the human genome project has been completed, the functions of many genes remain undetermined. In situ hybridization (ISH) is a key method for identifying cells in which a given messenger RNA is transcribed. Paraffin-embedded specimens remain precious materials for research, but preservation of high-quality RNA in these specimens is not expected unless ample caution was taken during fixation. Peptide nucleic acid (PNA) is a recently developed hybrid molecule with genetic information that has high stability and high affinity to the complementary DNA or RNA. We applied a PNA probe to mRNA ISH of liver specimens obtained by autopsy and embedded in paraffin 28-48 years ago. An 18-mer PNA probe for glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase was used. Staining was then analyzed in association with morphology by hematoxylin and eosin staining, and with the time between death of the patient and tissue fixation. Notably, specimens fixed with formalin and embedded in paraffin 48 years ago yielded excellent results if the time before fixation was short enough (<8 h). There was a significant inverse correlation between the intensity of ISH staining and the time before fixation. Oligonucleotide PNA probe, albeit at high cost, would increase the value of paraffin-embedded specimens in storage for use in human medical research.

    Transcriptional control mediated by the cyclic AMP-responsive element (CRE) represents an important mechanism of gene regulation. To test our hypothesis that increased inducible cyclic AMP early repressor (ICER) Iγ inhibits function of CRE-binding proteins and thus disrupts CRE-mediated transcription in pancreatic β cells, we generated transgenic mice with β-cell-directed expression of ICER Iγ, a powerful repressor that is greatly increased in diabetes. Three transgenic lines clearly show that increased ICER Iγ expression in β cells results in early severe diabetes. From birth islets were severely disorganized with a significantly increased proportion of α cells throughout the islet. Diabetes results from the combined effects of impaired insulin expression and a decreased number of β cells. The decrease in β cells appears to result from impaired proliferation rather than from increased apoptosis after birth. Cyclin A gene expression is impaired by the strong inhibition of ICER; the suppression of cyclin A results in a substantially decreased proliferation of β cells in the postnatal period. These results suggest that CRE and CRE-binding factors have an important role in pancreatic β-cell physiology not only directly by regulation of gene trans-activation but also indirectly by regulation of β-cell mass.

    Caspase-independent programmed cell death can exhibit either an apoptosis-like or a necrosis-like morphology. The ABL kinase inhibitor, imatinib mesylate, has been reported to induce apoptosis of BCR-ABL-positive cells in a caspase-dependent fashion. We investigated whether caspases alone were the mediators of imatinib mesylate-induced cell death. In contrast to previous reports, we found that a broad caspase inhibitor, zVAD-fmk, failed to prevent the death of imatinib mesylate-treated BCR-ABL-positive human leukemic cells. Moreover, zVAD-fmk-preincubated, imatinib mesylate-treated cells exhibited a necrosis-like morphology characterized by cellular pyknosis, cytoplasmic vacuolization, and the absence of nuclear signs of apoptosis. These cells manifested a loss of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential, indicating the mitochondrial involvement in this caspase-independent necrosis. We excluded the participation of several mitochondrial factors possibly involved in caspase-independent cell death such as apoptosis-inducing factor, endonuclease G, and reactive oxygen species. However, we observed the mitochondrial release of the serine protease Omi/HtrA2 into the cytosol of the cells treated with imatinib mesylate or zVAD-fmk plus imatinib mesylate. Furthermore, serine protease inhibitors prevented the caspase-independent necrosis. Taken together, our results suggest that imatinib mesylate induces a caspase-independent, necrosis-like programmed cell death mediated by the serine protease activity of Omi/HtrA2. © 2004 by The American Society of Hematology.

    We investigated the biological effects of the active oxygen produced by P450s. First, we identified which isoforms of P450 efficiently produced active oxygen using electron spin resonance. Eight forms of P450 purified from rat liver were used. Of these, CYP1A2, 2B1, 2C11 and 3A2 produced hydroxyl radicals efficiently. Phenobarbital (PB) which is a typical inducer of CYP2B1 and 3A2 induced production of hydroxyl radicals by rat liver and ketoconazole, an inhibitor of P450, inhibited production of hydroxyl radicals in vitro. PB is a tumor promoter as well as the P450-inducer. We investigated oxidation of the genomic DNA by the hydroxyl radicals produced by PB-inducible P450 in vitro and in vivo. 8-Hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a biomarker of DNA oxidation in vivo was assayed by HPLC. PB strongly induced the production of 8-OHdG in the rat liver. While ketoconazole inhibited the production of 8-OHdG in vivo. These results suggest that active oxygen produced by P450 oxidized genomic DNA and induction of P450 increased oxidative stress that may contribute to tumor initiation and promotion. © 2003 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

    BACKGROUND: Infusion of adrenomedullin (AM) has beneficial hemodynamic effects in patients with heart failure. However, the effect of AM on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion remains unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to a 30-minute period of ischemia induced by ligation of the left coronary artery. They were randomized to receive AM, AM plus wortmannin (a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase [PI3K] inhibitor), or saline for 60 minutes after coronary ligation. Hemodynamics and infarct size were examined 24 hours after reperfusion. Myocardial apoptosis was also examined 6 hours after reperfusion. The effect of AM on Akt phosphorylation in cardiac tissues was examined by Western blotting. Intravenous administration of AM significantly reduced myocardial infarct size (28+/-4% to 16+/-1%, P<0.01), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (19+/-2 to 8+/-2 mm Hg, P<0.05), and myocardial apoptotic death (19+/-2% to 9+/-4%, P<0.05). Western blot analysis showed that AM infusion accelerated Akt phosphorylation in cardiac tissues and that pretreatment with wortmannin significantly attenuated AM-induced Akt phosphorylation. Moreover, pretreatment with wortmannin abolished the beneficial effects of AM: a reduction of infarct size, a decrease in left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, and inhibition of myocardial apoptosis after ischemia/reperfusion. CONCLUSIONS: Short-term infusion of AM significantly attenuated myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. These cardioprotective effects are attributed mainly to antiapoptotic effects of AM via a PI3K/Akt-dependent pathway.

    Spermatogenesis is dependent on a small population of stem cells. Despite the biological significance of spermatogonial stem cells, their analysis has been hampered by their scarcity. However, spermatogonial stem cells can be enriched by selection with an antibody against cell-surface molecules. In this investigation, we searched for new antigens expressed on spermatogonial stem cells. Using the spermatogonial transplantation technique, we examined expression of the CD9 molecule, which is commonly expressed on stem cells of other tissues. Selection of both mouse and rat testis cells with anti-CD9 antibody resulted in 5- to 7-fold enrichment of spermatogonial stem cells from intact testis cells, indicating that CD9 is commonly expressed on spermatogonial stem cells of both species. Therefore, CD9 may be involved in the common machinery in stem cells of many self-renewing tissues, and the identification of a common surface antigen on spermatogonial stem cells of different species has important implications for the development of a technique to enrich stem cells from other mammalian species.

    Ferric nitrilotriacetate-induced renal carcinogenesis presents an intriguing model demonstrating what happens if repeated Fenton reaction occurs in vivo. We have asked a question whether there is any target gene in this carcinogenesis model. With a genetic approach, we found that p15 and p16 tumor suppressor genes are one of the major targets. Furthermore, allelic loss of p16 was present as early as three weeks after the start of the experiments. In this model, alterations in expressional levels of several genes were also observed by differential display analysis. Among them, annexin 2 was overexpressed in renal cell carcinoma, and was regulated by oxidative stress. Persistent operation of this adaptive mechanism plays a role in the proliferation and metastasis of oxidative stress-induced cancer.

    Acrolein is a representative carcinogenic aldehyde found ubiquitously in the environment and formed endogenously through oxidation reactions, such as lipid peroxidation and myeloperoxidase-catalyzed amino acid oxidation. It shows facile reactivity toward DNA to form an exocyclic DNA adduct. To verify the formation of acrolein-derived DNA adduct under oxidative stress in vivo, we raised a novel monoclonal antibody (mAb21) against the acrolein-modified DNA and found that the antibody most significantly recognized an acrolein-modified 2′-deoxyadenosine. On the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidence, the major antigenic product of mAb21 was the 1,N6-propano-2′ -deoxyadenosine adduct. The exposure of rat liver epithelial RL34 cells to acrolein resulted in a significant accumulation of the acrolein-2′ -deoxyadenosine adduct in the nuclei. Formation of this adduct under oxidative stress in vivo was immunohistochemically examined in rats exposed to ferric nitrilotriacetate, a carcinogenic iron chelate that specifically induces oxidative stress in the kidneys of rodents. It was observed that the acrolein-2′-deoxyadenosine adduct was formed in the nuclei of the proximal tubular cells, the target cells of this carcinogenesis model. The same cells were stained with a monoclonal antibody 5F6 that recognizes an acrolein-lysine adduct, by which cytosolic accumulation of acrolein-modified proteins appeared. Similar results were also obtained from myeloperoxidase knockout mice exposed to the iron complex, suggesting that the myeloperoxidase-catalyzed oxidation system might not be essential for the generation of acrolein in this experimental animal carcinogenesis model. The data obtained in this study suggest that the formation of a carcinogenic aldehyde through lipid peroxidation may be causally involved in the pathophysiological effects associated with oxidative stress.

    Background: The development of a spermatogonial transplantation technique has provided new possibilities for the treatment of male infertility. Previous studies have shown that spermatogonial stem cells could reinitiate spermatogenesis after cryopreservation and reintroduction into the seminiferous tubules of infertile recipient males, and this raised the possibility of banking frozen stem cells for male infertility treatment. It remains unknown, however, whether germ cells from freeze-thawed stem cells are fertile, leaving the possibility that the procedure compromises the integrity of the stem cells. Methods and results: Dissociated mouse testis cells were cryopreserved and transplanted into infertile recipient testes. The freeze-thawed testis cell populations contained higher concentrations of stem cells than fresh testis cell populations. Offspring were obtained from freeze-thawed stem cells transplanted into infertile males, and fertility restoration was more efficient in immature (5-10 days old) than in mature (6-12 weeks old) recipients. However, offspring were also obtained from infertile adult recipients using in-vitro microinsemination. Conclusions: This first successful application of frozen stem cell technology in the production of offspring by spermatogonial transplantation suggests the superiority of immature recipients for clinical applications. Thus, the combination of cryopreservation and transplantation of stem cells is a promising approach to overcome male infertility.

    Oxidative stress has been associated with a variety of pathologic conditions in humans. Increasing the transcriptional activities of antioxidant enzymes might be a strategy to prevent oxidative stress-associated diseases such as atherosclerosis and cancer. In the present paper, we studied the effects of extracts from 12 Mauritian endemic plants on the promoter activities of antioxidant enzymes; Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD), Mn-superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), catalase, and glutathione dismutase (GPx). The levels of total phenolic compounds, total flavonoids, and proanthocyanidins were measured. Four luciferase expression vectors (pGL3-Basic) with promoter region of each enzyme were constructed, transfected to COS7 cells followed by an exposure to each extract (25 μg/ml, 24 h, non-toxic dose). Thereafter, luciferase activities were evaluated in comparison with a control luciferase vector with a herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase promoter. Mauritian endemic plants contained high amounts of total phenols, flavonoids and proanthocyanidins. Total phenols and flavonoids were proportionally associated with Cu,Zn-SOD promoter activity, whereas they were inversely correlated with catalase promoter activity. These results suggest that the chemopreventive potentials of the extracts might reside in their abilities to modulate the expression of the antioxidant enzyme genes.

In the presence of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor, epidermal growth factor, basic fibroblast growth factor, and leukemia inhibitory factor, gonocytes isolated from neonatal mouse testis proliferated over a 5-month period (&gt;10(14)-fold)and restored fertility to congenitally infertile recipient mice following transplantation into seminiferous tubules. Long-term spermatogonial stem cell culture will be useful for studying spermatogenesis mechanism and has important implications for developing new technology in transgenesis or medicine.

    Kit and its ligand stem cell factor (SCF) play a fundamental role in hematopoiesis, melanogenesis and gametogenesis. Homozygous Wv mutant mice with a mutation in kit show abnormalities in these cell lineages. Fas is a member of the death receptor family inducing apoptosis. In this study, we generated double-mutant mice (Wv/Wv:Fas-/-) and analyzed histologically their reproductive organs. In testes and ovaries of the double-mutant mice, testicular germ cells and oocytes were detected, respectively, whereas the same-aged Wv/Wv mice contained neither cells. In addition, inhibition of Kit signals by administration of anti-Kit mAb, which induces degeneration of testicular germ cells in vivo in wild-type mice, did not cause degeneration in Fas-deficient mice. In testicular germ cells of Wv/Wv mutant mice, an increase of Fas expression was observed in spermatogonia. Further, in vitro treatment with SCF was shown to downregulate Fas on fibroblasts expressing exogenous Kit through activation of PI3-kinase/Akt. All the results clearly indicate that Fas-mediated apoptosis is involved in germ cell degeneration accompanied by defects in Kit-mediated signals, and Kit signaling negatively regulates Fas-mediated apoptosis in vivo.

    The goal of this study was to evaluate for evidence of oxidative stress in colonic inflammation in a novel model of inflammatory bowel disease, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug- (NSAID-) treated interleukin-10-deficient (IL10(-/-)) mice. IL10(-/-) and wild-type (wt) mice were treated with a nonselective NSAID (piroxicam, 200 ppm in the diet) for 2 weeks to induce colitis, and parameters for oxidative stress in the colonic tissues were evaluated. Mean chemiluminescence enhanced with lucigenin in the colons from IL10(-/-) mice treated with piroxicam was more than 5-fold higher than that of the control wt group. Chemiluminescence was inhibited with diphenylethylene iodinium, but not allopurinol, indomethacin, or N-omega-nitro-L-arginine, indicating that flavin-containing enzymes were the source of the reactive oxygen species. Colonic aconitase activity in NSAID-treated IL10(-/-) mice decreased to 50% of the activity of control mice. There was no difference in the total glutathione levels in the colonic mucosa among the groups; however, glutathione disulfide levels were approximately 2-fold greater in the colon of NSAID-treated IL10(-/-) mice as compared with control groups. Immunohistochemistry studies of colons from NSAID-treated IL10(-/-) mice demonstrated intense staining with two antibodies that recognize advanced glycation endproducts formed through glycation and oxidation: anticarboxymethylysine and antipentosidine. The epithelial cells and lamina propria cells in the colons of NSAID-treated IL10(-/-) mice showed immunostaining with antinitrotyrosine, indicating the presence of reactive nitrogen species. Colonic epithelium of IL10(-/-) mice with colitis showed moderate immunostaining for 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine in the nuclei. NSAID-treated IL10(-/-) mice treated with diphenylene idodonium chloride (DPI), an irreversible inhibitor of flavoprotein enzymes, experienced significantly reduced inflammation. Taken together, these results strongly indicate the presence of oxidative stress in the inflammatory bowel disease in NSAID-treated IL10(-/-) mice and suggests a role for oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of this model of inflammatory bowel disease.

    Spermatogenesis is dependent on a small population of stem cells. Although stem cells are believed to expand infinitely, there is little functional evidence regarding whether spermatogonial stem cells can increase in their number. Using the spermatogonial transplantation technique, we evaluated the proliferative potential of spermatogonial stem cells in two models of regeneration. After busulfan injection to deplete stem cells, the surviving stem cells were able to expand by at least 15.8-fold within 2 mo. On the other hand, a serial transplantation study indicated that one transplanted stem cell was able to expand by 3.8-and 12-fold within 2 and 4 mo, respectively. These results provide direct functional evidence for the expansion of stem cells and establish the basis for further characterization of the stem cell self-renewal process.

    Background. The role of glycine has not been investigated in lung ischemia-reperfusion injury after cold preservation. Furthermore, the role of apoptosis after reperfusion following cold preservation has not been fully understood. Methods. Lewis rats were divided into three groups (n=6 each). In the GLY(-) and GLY(+) groups, isolated lungs were preserved for 15 hr at 4°C after a pulmonary artery (PA) flush using our previously developed preservation solution (ET-K; extracellular-type trehalose containing Kyoto), with or without the addition of glycine (5 mM). In the Fresh group, isolated lungs were reperfused immediately after a PA flush with ET-K. They were reperfused for 60 min with an ex vivo perfusion model. Pulmonary function, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α expression were assessed after reperfusion. Results. Shunt fraction and peak inspiratory pressure after reperfusion in the GLY(-) group were significantly higher than those in the GLY(+) and Fresh groups. Oxidative damage and apoptosis in the alveolar epithelial cells of the GLY(-) group, assessed by immunohistochemical staining and quantification of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate nick end labeling method, were significantly higher than those of the GLY(+) and Fresh groups. There were correlations among shunt fraction, oxidative damage, and apoptosis. There was no expression of TNF-α messenger RNA in all groups evaluated by the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Conclusions. Glycine attenuates ischemia/reperfusion injury after cold preservation by reducing oxidative damage and suppressing apoptosis independent of TNF-α in this model. The suppression of apoptosis might ameliorate lung function after reperfusion.

    Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has been associated with gastric carcinogenesis, but responsible and detail mechanisms are insufficient by the absence of adequate data. To obtain direct evidence regarding the carcinogenicity of H. pylori, we investigated the initiating and promoting activity of H. pylori water extract (HPE) in two-stage mouse skin carcinogenesis model. HPE treatment, as an initiation, significantly enhanced tumor formation compared with control group. Moreover, HPE treatment increased production of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine in epidermal cells and HPE-initiated/TPA-promoted papillomas demonstrated a point mutation of the Ha-ras gene. These results suggest an initiating activity of HPE on two-stage mouse skin carcinogenesis. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

    4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), a major racemic product of lipid peroxidation, reacts with histidine to form a stable HNE-histidine Michael addition-type adduct possessing three chiral centers in the cyclic hemiacetal structure. In the present study, we characterized configurational isomers of a HNE-Nα-acetylhistidine adduct by NMR spectroscopy and by molecular orbital calculations. In addition, we raised monoclonal antibodies against (R)-HNE-histidine and (S)-HNE-histidine adducts, characterized their specificities, and examined in vivo localizations of each adduct under oxidative stress. To facilitate structural characterization of the configurational isomers of an HNE-histidine adduct, we prepared the (R)-HNE-histidine and (S)-HNE-histidine adducts by incubating Nα-acetylhistidine with each HNE enantiomer, both of which provided two peaks (Ra and Rb from (R)-HNE-histidine and Sa and Sb from (S)-HNE-histidine adducts) in reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The NMR analysis showed that each peak was a mixture of two diastereomers. In addition, the analysis of the nuclear Overhauser effect enabled the determination of configurations of the eight isomers. The relative amounts of these isomers in the NMR analysis correlated with the relative energies calculated by molecular orbital methods. On the other hand, using (R)-HNE-modified and (S)-HNE-modified keyhole limpet hemocyanins as the antigens, we raised the monoclonal antibodies, mAbR310 and mAbS412, which enantioselectively recognized the (R)-HNE-histidine and (S)-HNE-histidine adducts, respectively. Among the mixtures (Ra, Rb, Sa, and Sb) of diastereomers, mAbR310 showed the highest immunoreactivity to Rb (the mixture of 2R,4S,5R and 2S,4S,5R isomers), whereas mAbS412 preferentially recognized Sa (the mixture of 2R,4S,5S and 2S,4S,5S isomers). The presence of (R)-HNE and (S)-HNE epitopes in vivo was immunohistochemically examined in the kidney of rats exposed to the renal carcinogen, ferric nitrilotriacetate, by which nuclear and cytosolic stainings with mAbR310 and mAbS412, respectively, were detected.

    We found that Msx2-interacting nuclear target protein (MINT) competed with the intracellular region of Notch for binding to a DNA binding protein RBP-J and suppressed the transactivation activity of Notch signaling. Although MINT null mutant mice were embryonic lethal, MINT-deficient splenic B cells differentiated about three times more efficiently into marginal zone B cells with a concomitant reduction of follicular B cells. MINT is expressed in a cell-specific manner: high in follicular B cells and low in marginal zone B cells. Since Notch signaling directs differentiation of marginal zone B lymphocytes and suppresses that of follicular B lymphocytes in mouse spleen, the results indicate that high levels of MINT negatively regulate Notch signaling and block differentiation of precursor B cells into marginal zone B cells. MINT may serve as a functional homolog of Drosophila Hairless.

    Dietary antioxidants may attenuate oxidative damage from strenuous exercise in various tissues. Beneficial effects of the antioxidant astaxanthin have been demonstrated in vitro, but not yet in vivo. We investigated the effect of dietary supplementation with astaxanthin on oxidative damage induced by strenuous exercise in mouse gastrocnemius and heart. C57BL/6 mice (7 weeks old) were divided into groups: rested control, intense exercise, and exercise with astaxanthin supplementation. After 3 weeks of exercise acclimation, both exercise groups ran on a treadmill at 28 m/min until exhaustion. Exercise-increased 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified protein and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine in gastrocnemius and heart were blunted in the astaxanthin group. Increases in plasma creatine kinase activity, and in myeloperoxidase activity in gastrocnemius and heart, also were lessened by astaxanthin. Astaxanthin showed accumulation in gastrocnemius and heart from the 3 week supplementation. Astaxanthin can attenuate exercise-induced damage in mouse skeletal muscle and heart, including an associated neutrophil infiltration that induces further damage.

    The testis is one of several immune-privileged organs and is known for its unique ability to support allogeneic or xenogeneic tissue transplants. We investigated the possibility of deriving offspring from mice that underwent transplantation with allogeneic male germ line stem cells in the testis. Although mature adult mice rejected allogeneic germ cells and were infertile, offspring were obtained by intracytoplasmic germ cell injection using partially differentiated donor cells. In contrast, complete spermatogenesis occurred when allogeneic germ cells were transplanted into immature pup testes. Tolerance induction by monoclonal antibody administration allowed the pup transplant recipients to produce allogeneic offspring by natural mating, whereas no spermatozoa were found in the epididymis of untreated recipients. Thus, these results indicate that a histoincompatible recipient can serve as a "surrogate father" to propagate the genetic information of heterologous male donors.

    Background: Fertility protection is an urgent clinical problem for prepubertal male oncology patients who undergo either chemotherapy or radiotherapy. As these patients do not have mature sperm to be frozen, there is as yet no effective method to preserve their fertility. Methods and results: Single pieces of immature mouse (1.5 × 1.5 × 1.5 mm) or rabbit (2.0 × 2.0 × ≃3.0 mm) testis were cryopreserved, thawed and transplanted into mouse testes. Histological techniques were used to determine the presence of spermatogenesis, which was restored in both mouse and rabbit testicular pieces, and led to the production of mature sperm after both cryopreservation and syngeneic or xenogeneic transplantation into mouse testes. Using sperm developed in the frozen-thawed transplants, mouse offspring were born after in-vitro microinsemination. Furthermore, rabbit offspring were obtained using rabbit sperm that developed in fresh transplants in a xenogeneic surrogate mouse. Conclusions: This approach of 'testicular tissue banking' is a promising technique for the preservation of fertility in prepubertal male oncology patients. Xenogeneic transplantation into immunodeficient mice may provide a system for study spermatogenic failure in infertile men.

    Caspase-8 plays the role of initiator in the caspase cascade and is a key molecule in death receptor-induced apoptotic pathways. To investigate the physiological roles of caspase-8 in vivo, we have generated caspase-8-deficient mice by gene targeting. The first signs of abnormality in homozygous mutant embryos were observed in extraembryonic tissue, the yolk sac. By embryonic day (E) 10.5, the yolk sac vasculature had begun to form inappropriately, and subsequently the mutant embryos displayed a variety of defects in the developing heart and neural tube. As a result, all mutant embryos died at E11.5. Importantly, homozygous mutant neural and heart defects were rescued by ex vivo whole-embryo culture during E10.5-E11.5, suggesting that these defects are most likely secondary to a lack of physiological caspase-8 activity. Taken together, these results suggest that caspase-8 is indispensable for embryonic development.

    Temporary or persistent heart failure is one of the major complications after myocardial infarction (MI). In order to elucidate the pathogenesis of MI, we studied the spaciotemporal alteration of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels in cardiomyocytes in a rat model of ligation of the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery. The lethality in this model was 18%. Hearts were dissected at 0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48h, and 1, 2, 4, 6 weeks after the operation. The cardiac level of 8-OHdG was evaluated biochemically as well as by immunohistochemistry with monoclonal antibody N45.1. Three to 6h after ligation, the 8-OHdG levels were increased in the cardiomyocytes of MI (six-fold) and peri-MI (four-fold) areas. After 24h, the myocardium in the MI area was necrotized, and thereafter the 8-OHdG level decreased. 8-OHdG levels in the myocardium of peri-MI areas returned once to a normal level, but were significantly increased at 2-4 weeks along with the appearance of apoptotic cardiomyocytes in this area. The heart after MI has been generally considered as clinically stable after four weeks. However, cardiomyocytes near the infarcted area were oxidatively stressed even after four weeks when the affected lesion was extensive. The present data support the use of supplementary antioxidant therapies to save functional myocardium after MI. (213 words).

    8-Hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG), which has been regarded as a potential marker of oxidative DNA damage induced by reactive oxygen species, was measured in human urine by a commercial ELISA using a monoclonal antibody N45.1 and by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled to an electrochemical detector (HPLC-ECD) to evaluate whether the ELISA system is applicable to human monitoring studies. The urine samples were collected from 120 healthy men ages 18-58 in a steel-manufacturing company. A good correlation (r = 0.833; P < 0.0001) was observed between the two methods on HPLC-purified 8-OH-dG fractions from 23 urine samples. The mean value (+/-SD) of 8-OH-dG (microg/g creatinine) was 5.47 (+/-2.97) by HPLC-ECD assay and 5.50 (+/-2.36) by ELISA. However, the correlation (r) between the two methods on 120 original urine samples was 0.460 [P < 0.001; mean value (+/-SD) of 8-OH-dG (microg/g creatinine) was 4.46 (+/-2.03) by the HPLC assay and 9.33 (+/-3.23) by ELISA]. ELISA estimates were about 2-fold higher than the HPLC estimates on original urine. For an unknown reason, 10% of the urine samples showed more than a 4-fold increase in value by ELISA. It is suggested that the ELISA system is applicable for comparative human monitoring studies. Prepurification of 'samples is required to determine the absolute value of 8-OH-dG in individual urine samples by ELISA.

    Secretion of gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP), a duodenal hormone, is primarily induced by absorption of ingested fat. Here we describe a novel pathway of obesity promotion via GIP. Wild-type mice fed a high-fat diet exhibited both hypersecretion of GIP and extreme visceral and subcutaneous fat deposition with insulin resistance. In contrast, mice lacking the GIP receptor (Gipr−/−) fed a high-fat diet were clearly protected from both the obesity and the insulin resistance. Moreover, double-homozygous mice (Gipr−/−, Lepob/Lepob) generated by crossbreeding Gipr−/− and obese ob/ob (Lepob/Lepob) mice gained less weight and had lower adiposity than Lepob/Lepob mice. The Gipr−/− mice had a lower respiratory quotient and used fat as the preferred energy substrate, and were thus resistant to obesity. Therefore, GIP directly links overnutrition to obesity and it is a potential target for anti-obesity drugs.

    Unimpaired vitamin D action has been implicated in human cancer prevention. We have previously demonstrated the effectiveness of 1α-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-D3) to reduce proliferation and increase differentiation in human colon cancer cells. The aim of this study was to investigate, on the one hand, expression of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3-1α-hydroxylase (1α-hydroxylase) in human normal and malignant colonic tissue and, on the other hand, to determine consequences of reduced or lacking VDR action in a VDR knockout mouse model. In low-grade malignancies of the human colon we found increased VDR and 1α-hydroxylase mRNA expression. However, in late-stage high-grade tumors the vitamin D system is severely compromised. In the mouse colon we found an inverse relationship between VDR levels and proliferation in colon descendens, a tissue known to be specifically affected by nutrients during carcinogenesis. Expression of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a marker of oxidative DNA damage, was significantly augmented with complete loss of VDR. These data suggest that genomic 1,25-D3 action is necessary to protect against nutrition-linked hyperproliferation and oxidative DNA damage. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

    3-Nitrotyrosine (3-NT), a product of peroxynitrite reaction, is abundantly observed in hepatocytes adjacent to human metastatic colorectal carcinoma. To elucidate its biological significance, we undertook to identify nitric oxide (NO)-producing cells and apoptosis under oxidative stress. We observed strong inducible NO-synthase (iNOS) immunoreactivity in the hepatocytes adjacent to metastatic tumor, revealing an identical pattern to 3-NT immunostaining. Furthermore, intense 3-NT immunostaining of hepatocytes was associated with apoptosis whereas carcinoma cells near those hepatocytes presented high proliferating-cell nuclear antigen. Our results suggest that contact of metastatic tumor induces apoptosis in adjacent hepatocytes through peroxynitrite, thus permitting the proliferation of cancer cells. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd.

    Annexin 2 is a calcium-regulated, phospholipid-binding protein present in endothelial cells, macrophages and some tumor cells. Annexin 2 is a substrate for a variety of protein kinases, and plays roles in the regulation of endocytosis, exocytosis and thrombolysis. We have determined the nucleotide sequence of a rat genomic DNA fragment that hybridized to a rat annexin 2 DNA complementary to RNA (cDNA) probe. Sequence analysis revealed that it was an intronless rat annexin 2, consisting of a start-to-stop-codon-length copy of the processed transcript. This pseudogene contained 33 point mutations and two deletion sites in the coding region as compared with the cDNA, and thus displayed typical features of a retroposon. Transitions were more frequent than transversions, and the most frequent type of mutation was G to A transition. We isolated a phage clone that contained a functional rat annexin 2 genomic fragment including coding exons 3 and 4. Polymerase chain reaction and subsequent sequence analysis revealed an intron of approximately 4 kbp at the same site as in humans and mice. Whereas the annexin 2 gene or its cDNA homologues have been detected in various species from Xenopus to humans, its pseudogene has been reported only in humans. In the present study, we demonstrated the presence of an annexin 2 pseudogene in rats. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

    Rice has been one of the most important grains. While polished white rice is favored, colored strains of rice, red, or black, have been maintained for religious purposes in Japan. We studied whether feeding of unpolished colored rice instead of white rice ameliorates oxidative renal tubular damage in rats induced by ferric nitrilotriacetate. Whereas renal lipid peroxidation was exacerbated in white rice-fed group in comparison with standard chow group, this exacerbation was not observed in red or black rice-fed groups. These changes were dependent on the proportion of colored rice to standard chow in the diet. Cyanidin 3-O-beta-D-glucoside was detectable neither in the serum nor kidney after one week of colored rice diet, but serum protocatechuic acid was significantly increased after black rice diet. There was a generalized decrease in the renal glutathione peroxidase activity in rice diet groups. Renal enzymatic activities of superoxide dismutase, glutathione S-transferase and NAD(P)H quinone reductase were not associated with the levels of lipid peroxidation. However, renal catalase activity was significantly increased in black rice-fed groups. These may partly explain the antioxidative effect. Furthermore, colored strains of rice are rich in proteins. Thus, our data warrants further investigation of the antioxidative effect of colored rice.

    A novel vitamin E derivative that is freely soluble in water, 2-(α-D-glucopyranosyl)methyl-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-6-ol (TMG), was evaluated for ability to inhibit development of atherosclerosis in Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic (WHHL) rabbits or cholesterol-loaded New Zealand White rabbits. Although TMG rapidly entered the circulation blood after oral administration, the blood TMG concentration remained low, while neither TMG nor its metabolites appeared in the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) fraction. TMG did not decrease serum total cholesterol and the various lipoprotein-associated cholesterol fractions (very LDL-, or high-density lipoprotein- (HDL) cholesterol). TMG reduced the serum concentration of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS; an index of lipid peroxidation) in cholesterol-loaded rabbits but not WHHL rabbits. Nonetheless, TMG inhibited aortic atherosclerosis as effectively as probucol in both models. Our results indicate that TMG opposes progression of atherosclerosis not only by preventing oxidation of LDL, but also by presently unknown mechanisms. Even an antioxidant with no uptake by LDL apparently can inhibit development of atherosclerosis despite a very low serum concentration. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Mutations in the hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1alpha gene have been linked to subtype 3 of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY), a disease characterized by a primary defect in insulin secretion. Here we show that the human GLUT2 gene is closely regulated by HNF-1alpha via sequences downstream of the transcriptional start site by interaction with transcriptional co-activator p300. The promoter region of the human GLUT2 gene was subcloned into luciferase expression plasmids that were transfected together with HNF-1alpha expression plasmid into a pancreatic beta-cell line, HIT-T15, to evaluate transcriptional activities. HNF-1alpha enhanced human GLUT2 promoter activity sixfold. Site-direct mutagenesis and footprint analyses showed that the HNF-1alpha binding site (+200 to +218) is critical in human GLUT2 gene expression. Furthermore, mammalian two-hybrid and immunoprecipitation studies revealed the transactivation domain of HNF-1alpha (amino acids 391-540) to interact with both the NH(2)-terminal region (amino acids 180-662) and the COOH-terminal region (amino acids 1,818-2,079) of p300. These findings demonstrated that HNF-1alpha binds to the 5'-untranslated region of GLUT2 and that p300 acts as a transcriptional co-activator for HNF-1alpha. In addition, these results provided new insight into the regulatory function of HNF-1alpha by suggesting a molecular basis for human GLUT2 gene expression.

    New biomarkers for oxidative damage, were used to identify whether hyperglycemia caused oxidative stress in diabetic Akita mice. At 13 weeks of age, the tissues of these mice were obtained, and the levels of Nε-(hexanonyl)lysine (HEL) and dityrosine (DT) were measured, these being related to lipid peroxide-derived protein covalent modification and protein cross-linking. The levels of HEL and DT in the kidneys of Akita mice were significantly increased compared with the control mice without any accumulation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified protein. Immunopositive staining was clearly observed in the kidneys of the Akita mice when using the anti-HEL antibody or anti-DT antibody. These results suggest that hyperglycemia in Akita mice induced oxidative stress and increased these markers in the kidneys. © 2002 by Japan Society for Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Agrochemistry.

    Sertoli cells play a pivotal role in spermatogenesis through their interactions with germ cells. To set up a strategy for treating male infertility caused by Sertoli cell dysfunction, we developed a Sertoli cell gene transfer system by using an adenovirus vector, which maintained long-term transgene expression in the testes of infertile mice. Introduction of an adenovirus carrying the mouse Steel (Sl) gene into Sertoli cells restored partial spermatogenesis in infertile Steel/Steeldickie (Sl/Sld) mutant mouse testes. Although these males remained infertile, round spermatids and spermatozoa from the testes produced normal fertile offspring after intracytoplasmic injection into oocytes. None of the offspring showed evidence of germ line transmission of adenoviral DNA. Thus, we demonstrate a successful treatment for infertility by using a gene therapy vector. Therefore, adenovirus-mediated gene delivery into Sertoli cells not only provides an efficient and convenient means for studying germ cell-Sertoli cell interactions through manipulation of the germ cell microenvironment in vivo, but also is a useful method to treat male infertility resulting from a Sertoli cell defect.

    There is no doubt that oxidative stress occurs in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and play an important role in both inflammation and destruction of RA joints. Thioredoxin (TRX) is a ubiquitous redox-active protein and is known to be induced in several cells against oxidative stress and to be secreted extracellularly. To clarify whether plasma thioredoxin levels could be a marker for oxidative stress in patients with RA, we measured plasma TRX levels in patients with RA using a sensitive sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and investigated its relationship to TRX concentrations in the inflammatory joints. We have found that the plasma TRX levels of RA patients were significantly higher than those of normal subjects (86.8 ± 54.1 ng/ml versus 38.6 ± 18.5 ng/ml, P <0.0001). The plasma levels were correlated with the disease activity of RA and also with serum C-reactive protein (CRP) values (P <0.01). The concentration of TRX in synovial fluid (SF) from RA was 353.3 ± 220.1 ng/ml (mean ± S.D.) which was significantly higher than that in SF from osteoarthritis patients (70.6 ± 31.0 ng/ml, P <0.0001). The SF TRX concentration was significantly correlated with the number of leukocytes infiltrating in SF and with the serum CRP levels. The serum TRX levels were significantly positively correlated with the SF TRX concentrations in RA patients (P <0.05). By the histological examination for synovial tissue of RA patients, TRX was shown to be present on the surface of synovial lining layer as well as in the leukocytes. Moreover, urinary excretion of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a biomarker of oxidative DNA damage by endogenously generated oxygen radicals, was significantly higher in RA patients than in healthy subjects (11.55 ± 4.71 versus 7.76 ± 2.26 ng/mg creatinine, P <0.0001). Plasma TRX levels were significantly correlated with urinary excretion of 8-OHdG (P <0.005). We concluded that plasma TRX level is a new biomarker for the disease activity of RA and may reflect higher levels of oxidative stress in RA patients. © 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.

    Oxidative tissue damage has been shown to be associated with carcinogenesis. In human cancers p16INK4A is one of the most frequently mutated tumor suppressor genes. The present study used the ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)-induced rat renal carcinogenesis model to determine whether oxidative damage can cause specific allelic loss of p16INK4A. By the use of fluorescent in situ hybridization in combination with imprint cytology at single-cell resolution, we found that the number of renal tubular cells with aneuploidy (1 or 3 signals) at the p16INK4A locus was significantly and specifically increased (1 week, 37.2 ± 2.3%; 3 weeks, 37.8 ± 1.3% vs control, 22.5 ± 1.9%; mean ± SE, N = 8; P < 0.001 and P < 0.0001, respectively) after repeated intraperitoneal administration of 5 to10 mg of iron/kg in the form of Fe-NTA for 3 weeks. No increase in aneuploidy was observed at the loci of either the p53 or vhl tumor suppressor gene. Furthermore, the increase in the cells with 3 signals was followed by a continuous increase in those with 1 signal. Therefore, the p16INK4A locus is specifically vulnerable to oxidative damage, leading to its allelic loss within weeks, presumably due to a deficiency in the replication of both the alleles.

    Heat shock preconditioning (HSPC) is a promising strategy for providing ischemic tolerance. The objective of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of HSPC in preventing oxidative damage of cellular proteins and DNA during ischemia-reperfusion of the liver. Male Wistar rats were divided into a heat shock group (group HS) and control (group C). Forty-eight hours prior to ischemia, rats in group HS received HSPC at 42°C for 15 min. All rats received hepatic warm ischemia for 30 min and subsequent reperfusion. The formation of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) modified proteins in liver tissue, survival rate of the animals, and changes in biochemical and histological parameters were compared between groups. Heat shock protein 72 was produced only in group HS. The 7-day survival of rats was significantly better in group HS (10/10) than in group C (5/10) (p <0.01). The serum release of alanine aminotransferase (n =10, p < 0.01) and the concentration of adenosine triphosphate in liver tissue (n = 10, p < 0.01) 40 min after reperfusion was significantly better in group HS than in group C. The formation of 8-OHdG in liver tissue measured by high-performance liquid chromatography was suppressed in group HS (p < 0.01). The production of HNE-modified proteins as determined by Westem-blot analysis was also decreased in group HS. These results were also confirmed by immunohistochemical analysis. As determined by levels of 8-OHdG and HNE-modified proteins produced during ischemia-reperfusion of the liver, HSPC reduced the oxidative injury of cellular proteins and DNA in the liver tissue.

    Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been shown to be associated with a wide variety of pathological phenomena such as carcinogenesis, inflammation, radiation and reperfusion injury. Iron, the most abundant transition metal ion in our body, may work as a catalyst for the generation of ROS in pathological conditions. In the past few years, there have been great advances in the understanding of iron metabolism. These include the discoveries of iron transporters and the gene responsible for hereditary hemochromatosis. Iron overload has been shown to be associated with carcinogenesis. We recently identified the major target genes (p16INK4A and p15INK4B tumor suppressor genes, which encode cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors) in a ferric nitrilotriacetate-induced rat renal carcinogenesis model, in which the Fenton reaction is induced in the renal proximal tubules. Allelic loss of the p16 gene occurs early in carcinogenesis and specifically at the p16 loci as compared with other tumor suppressor genes. This led to the novel concept of 'genomic sites vulnerable to the Fenton reaction'. Here, recent new findings on iron metabolism are reviewed and the concept of the vulnerable sites explored. More effort to link iron metabolism with human carcinogenesis is anticipated.

    Cancer chemoprevention is the use of chemical agents to inhibit, delay or reverse carcinogenesis. We established a novel method to evaluate agents for use in the chemoprevention of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-associated cancer. Induction of renal cell carcinoma in rats by ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) is an established model of ROS-associated cancer. We recently identified the p16INK4A tumor suppressor gene as one of the major target genes in this model, and showed by the use of in situ hybridization that allelic loss of p16INK4A occurs in the increased fraction of renal tubular cells within a few weeks. In the present study, we tested whether diets including green tea powder or a processed grain food are effective chemopreventive agents in this animal model. Consumption of these modified diets led to a significant decrease in the fraction of aneuploid cells after 1 week of repeated Fe-NTA administration. A decrease in renal lipid peroxidation after a single administration of Fe-NTA was also observed. Therefore, intake of green tea or processed grain foods stabilizes p16INK4A in the genome, at least in this model, and might be helpful for the prevention of ROS-associated cancer. This novel method is versatile, and may work as a surrogate end-point biomarker for screening the usefulness of agents for cancer chemoprevention.

    Kidney irradiation clearly leads to a progressive reduction in function associated with concomitant glomerulosclerosis and/or tubulointerstitial fibrosis. However, the particular cell types, mediators and/or mechanisms involved in the development and progression of radiation nephropathy remain ill defined. Angiotensin II (Ang II) plays a major pathogenic role; administration of Ang II blockers markedly abrogates the severity of radiation nephropathy in experimental models. Both ionizing radiation and Ang II signal via generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Thus, we hypothesized that localized kidney irradiation might lead to a chronic oxidative stress. In view of the difficulty in measuring ROS in vivo we adopted an indirect immunohistochemical approach in which we used a monoclonal antibody specific for 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), one of the most commonly used markers of DNA oxidation. The right kidney of 7-8 week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats was removed. Five to 6 weeks later the remaining hypertrophied kidney was irradiated with single doses of 0-20.0 Gy X-rays. Groups of rats, three per dose, were killed at 4, 8, 16 and 24 weeks post-irradiation, their kidneys fixed, and sections stained with the 8-OHdG-specific antibody N45.1. For quantitation of glomerular DNA oxidation with the N45.1 antibody stained sections, 50 glomeruli/animal were counted. The presence of any intensely stained nuclei within the glomerular tuft was scored as positive. Quantitation of tubular DNA oxidation employed a 10 x 10 point ocular grid. Sections were examined at 400 magnification; 250 tubular profiles were counted. All tubules with any nuclear staining were scored as positive.Sham-irradiated kidneys showed little evidence of DNA oxidation over the experimental period. In contrast, localized kidney irradiation led to a marked, dose-independent increase in glomerular and tubular cell nuclear DNA oxidation. This increase was evident at the first time point studied, i.e. 4 weeks after irradiation, and persisted for up to 24 weeks postirradiation. DNA oxidation in the irradiated kidney was only seen in apparently viable glomerular and tubular cells. Thus, while from 16 to 24 weeks post-irradiation structural alterations had progressed to glomerular sclerosis and tubular atrophy, positive staining for 8-OHdG was not observed in severely atrophic tubules. Similarly, fewer positive staining cells were noted in glomeruli undergoing sclerosis, while none were seen in totally sclerotic glomeruli. These data support the hypothesis that renal irradiation is associated with a chronic and persistent oxidative stress.

    8-Hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG), which has been regarded as a potential marker of oxidative DNA damage induced by reactive oxygen species, was measured in human urine by a commercial ELISA using a monoclonal antibody N45.1 and by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled to an electrochemical detector (HPLCECD) to evaluate whether the ELISA system is applicable to human monitoring studies. The urine samples were collected from 120 healthy men ages 18-58 in a steel-manufacturing company. A good correlation (r = 0.833; P < 0.0001) was observed between the two methods on HPLC-purified 8- OH-dG fractions from 23 urine samples. The mean value (±SD) of 8-OH-dG (μg/g creatinine) was 5.47 (±2.97) by HPLC-ECD assay and 5.50 (±2.36) by ELISA. However, the correlation (r) between the two methods on 120 original urine samples was 0.460 [P < 0.001; mean value (±SD) of 8-OH-dG (μg/g creatinine) was 4.46 (±2.03) by the HPLC assay and 9.33 (±3.23) by ELISA]. ELISA estimates were about 2-fold higher than the HPLC estimates on original urine. For an unknown reason, 10% of the urine samples showed more than a 4-fold increase in value by ELISA. It is suggested that the ELISA system is applicable for comparative human monitoring studies. Prepurification of 'samples is required to determine the absolute value of 8-OH-dG in individual urine samples by ELISA.

    The most noticeable hypothesis regarding the pathogenesis of cisplatin toxicity, seen mainly in kidney and intestine, is oxidative stress, an imbalance between free-radical generating cisplatin and radical scavenging systems. This paper describes the role of the antioxidant system in cisplatin-induced toxicity and the protective effect by a processed grain food (Antioxidant Biofactor: AOB®), which has been shown to exhibit strong antioxidant activity. Male Fischer 344 rats were used. They were pre-fed either a basal diet (control, 15 g/day) or the diet supplemented with AOB® to provide 6.5% or 20% of total diet throughout the experiment. Cisplatin (5 mg/kg, i.v.) was administered at the start of the experiment, and the animals were sacrificed 5 days later. Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and plasma creatinine, NO2- and NO3- (NOx) were determined from the plasma. The levels of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (a lipid peroxidation product), 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG, an oxidatively modified DNA adduct) and nitrotyrosine were histologically analyzed. The cisplatin administration resulted in a loss of body weight and elevations of BUN, serum creatinine and NOx levels, whereas AOB supplement reversed these effects. The severe morphological damages induced in the kidney and intestine by the cisplatin administration were markedly improved in the AOB group. The levels of lipid peroxidation, 8-OHdG, and nitrotyrosine all paralleled the morphological damage. The AOB effect was dose dependent. In conclusion, the present study suggests that certain food additives like AOB may be of benefit against the side effects of cisplatin.

    Oxidative stress has been associated with carcinogenesis. In 1982, our laboratory established an oxys-tress-induced carcinogenesis model of rodent kidney by the use of an iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate. This model is unique in that 1) only carcinoma, not sarcoma, is induced, 2) the induced tumor is of high malignant potential to kill the animal by pulmonary metastasis, peritoneal invasion or rupture of the primary tumor, and, 3) increase in a variety of covalently modified products including 8-oxoguanine, thymine-tyrosine cross-link, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal and its modified proteins are demonstrated in its early stage. Since in general free radicals are not considered to react with specific target molecules in contrast with immune reaction, we undertook to answer the question whether there is any specific target gene (s) in this carcinogenesis model. By genetically analyzing F_1 hybrid rats, we found two chromosomal areas that showed a high incidence of loss of heterozygosity, which lead to a finding that p15^<INK4B>/p16^<INK4A> tumor suppressor genes are one of the major pathways responsible for this oxystress-induced cancer. Furthermore, by screening 84,000 transcripts by differential display techniques, we found that at least 15 genes associated with stress-response or cellular proliferation are differentially expressed in this model. We believe that not only genetic changes but also epigenetic changes play a role in oxidative stress-induced carcinogenesis.

    Background - Lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor-1 (LOX-1) was originally identified as a receptor expressed predominantly in endothelial cells. LOX-1 can also be expressed in other cell types, and the activation of the LOX-1 pathway has been implicated in apoptosis. There have been no reports, however, about LOX-1 expression in cardiac myocytes or regulation of myocardial cell apoptosis by LOX-1. Methods and Results - In primary cardiac myocytes from neonatal rats, immunohistochemical analyses using a specific monoclonal antibody against LOX-1 demonstrated that LOX-1 expression was markedly induced by stimulation with norepinephrine and endothelin-1. LOX-1 expression was upregulated in cardiac myocytes as well as in vessel walls of failing rat hearts in vivo. In the presence of a low concentration of oxidized LDL that did not induce apoptosis by itself, artificial overexpression of LOX-1 in cardiac myocytes in culture resulted in apoptosis. LOX-1 overexpression induced activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and oxidative stress in cardiac myocytes, as demonstrated by an increase in positive immunostaining for 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine. Inhibition of p38 MAPK by cotransfection of a dominant-negative form of MKK6 as well as by administration of a specific inhibitor, SB203580 or FR167653, almost completely blocked the induction of apoptosis by LOX-1 activation. Antioxidant catalase also blocked LOX-1-induced apoptosis as well as activation of p38 MAPK. Conclusions - These findings demonstrate that LOX-1 expression in cardiac myocytes is induced by neurohormonal factors activated in heart failure and that LOX-1-dependent apoptosis in these cells requires p38 MAPK, a component of oxidant stress-sensitive signaling pathways.

    Background. The importance of reactive oxygen species released through interaction of leukocyte/endothelial cell in ischemia-reperfusion injury of the lung is not yet fully understood. A novel selectin blocker, OJ-R9188, which inhibits the interaction, may alleviate oxidative stress and pulmonary dysfunction after warm ischemia-reperfusion. Materials and methods. Rat lungs were reperfused at 37°C for 60 min with an ex vivo model and were divided into three groups (n = 10). In the fresh group, lungs were reperfused immediately after harvest. In the OJ-R (-) and OJ-R (+) groups, lungs were reperfused after warm ischemia at 37°C for 90 min. In the OJ-R (+) group, rats received 100 μg per body of OJ-R9188 intravenously 10 min before the harvest. The electron spin resonance method was used to assess the direct scavenging activity of OJ-R9188. Results. Both shunt fractions and wet/dry weight ratios of the lung tissue after reperfusion in the OJ-R (+) group were significantly lower than those in the OJ-R (-) group. Oxidative DNA damage in the alveolar wall of the OJ-R (+) group, assessed by immunohistochemical quantitation of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine, was significantly lower than that of the OJ-R (-) group. Immunostaining of 3-nitro-L-tyrosine, which represents nitric oxide-mediated oxidative damage, was also more intense in the OJ-R (-) group than in the OJ-R (+) group. Direct scavenging activity of OJ-R9188 was not observed, and the number of leukocytes infiltrated to the lung tissue as seen by myeloperoxidase activity was not different between the OJ-R (-) and OJ-R (+) groups. Conclusions. A novel selectin blocker, OJ-R9188, improves pulmonary function after warm ischemia-reperfusion and alleviates reperfusion-induced oxidative alveolar damage. © 2001 Academic Press.

    DNA damage in cultured cells and in lungs of rats induced by nickel compounds was investigated to clarify the mechanism of nickel carcinogenesis. DNA strand breaks in cultured cells exposed to nickel compounds were measured by using a pulsed field gel electrophoresis technique. Among nickel compounds (Ni3S2, NiO (black), NiO (green), and NiSO4), only Ni3S2, which is highly carcinogenic, induced lesions of both double- and single-stranded DNA in cultured human cells (Raji and HeLa cells). Treatment of cultured HeLa cells with Ni3S2 (10 μg/ml) induced a 1.5-fold increase in 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) compared with control, whereas NiO (black), NiO (green), and NiSO4 did not enhance the generation of 8-OH-dG. Intratracheal instillation of Ni3S2, NiO(black), and NiO(green) to Wistar rats increased 8-OH-dG in the lungs significantly. NiSO4 induced a smaller but significant increase in 8-OH-dG. Histological studies showed that all the nickel compounds used induced inflammation in lungs of the rats. Nitric oxide (NO) generation in phagocytic cells induced by Ni3S2, NiO(black), and NiO(green) was examined using macrophage cell line RAW 264.7 cells. NO generation in RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharide was enhanced by all nickel particles. Two mechanisms for nickel-induced oxidative DNA damage have been proposed as follows: all the nickel compounds used induced indirect damage through inflammation, and Ni3S2 also showed direct oxidative DNA damage through H2O2 formation. This double action may explain relatively high carcinogenic risk of Ni3S2. © 2001 Elsevier Science Inc.

    In the present study, we characterize the covalent modification of a protein by crotonaldehyde, a representative carcinogenic aldehyde, and describe the endogenous production of this aldehyde in vivo. The crotonaldehyde preferentially reacted with the lysine and histidine residues of bovine serum albumin and generated a protein-linked carbonyl derivative. Upon incubation with the histidine and lysine derivatives, crotonaldehyde predominantly generated β-substituted butanal adducts of histidine and lysine and N ε-(2,5-dimethyl-3-formyl-3,4-dehydropiperidino)lysine (dimethyl-FDP-lysine) as the putative carbonyl derivatives generated in the crotonaldehyde-modified protein. To verify the endogenous formation of crotonaldehyde in vivo, we raised the monoclonal antibody (mAb82D3) against the crotonaldehyde-modified protein and found that it cross-reacted with the protein-bound 2-alkenals, such as crotonaldehyde, 2-pentenal, and 2-hexenal. The anti-2-alkenal antibody recognized multiple crotonaldehyde-lysine adducts, including dimethyl-FDP-lysine and an unknown product, which showed the greatest immunoreactivity with the antibody. On the basis of the chemical and spectroscopic evidence, the major antigenic product was determined to be a novel Schiff base-derived crotonaldehyde-lysine adduct, Nε -(5-ethyl-2-methylpyridinium)lysine (EMP-lysine). It was found that the lysine residues that had disappeared in the protein treated with crotonaldehyde were partially recovered by EMP-lysine. The presence of immunoreactive materials with mAb82D3 in vivo was demonstrated in the kidney of rats exposed to the renal carcinogen, ferric nitrilotriacetate. In addition, the observations that the metal-catalyzed oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the presence of proteins resulted in an increase in the antigenicity of the protein indicated that lipid peroxidation represents a potential pathway for the formation of crotonaldehyde/2-alkenals in vivo. These data suggest that the formation of carcinogenic aldehydes during lipid peroxidation may be causally involved in the pathophysiological effects associated with oxidative stress.

    Redox regulating mechanisms may be involved in the pathogenesis of viral myocarditis and thioredoxin (TRX) is a small multifunctional protein that contains a redox active sequence. The present study investigated the histopathology and characteristics of TRX expression in acute coxsackievirus B3 myocarditis in inbred strains of mice (severe myocarditis in DBA/2 mice, moderate myocarditis in BALB/c mice and mild myocarditis in C57BL/6 mice). Thioredoxin was upregulated and its expression correlated with the severity of the disease. In addition, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, which is an established marker for oxidative stress, was concominantly positive in damaged myocytes. Thus, TRX may be specifically induced by the acute inflammatory stimuli in murine viral myocarditis, and the severity and development of acute viral myocarditis may be regulated by the cellular redox state.

Thus, TRX may be specifically induced by the acute inflammatory stimuli in murine viral myocarditis, and the severity and development of acute viral myocarditis may be regulated by the cellular redox state.

    8-Oxoguanine is one of the major premutagenic oxidative base legions in vivo and is suspected to play a crucial role in various pathophysiological processes, such as cancer and aging. Mammalian 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1) is thought to play a major role in the removal of 8-oxoguanine adducts in vivo. We have identified several inbred mouse strains with a spontaneous mutation, OGG1-R336H or double mutations, OGG1-R304W/R336H. R304W mutation caused a complete loss of OGG1 activity, while the R336H mutation led to disruption of nuclear localization of the enzyme although the activity remained normal. Among the double mutants was SAMP1, which exhibits accelerated senescence and short lifespan. We assessed the possible implication of the mutant OGG1 and 8-oxoguanine in aging utilizing SAMP1 mice. SAMP1 retained 1.5- to 1.9-fold increase in 8-oxoguanine level of hepatic nuclear DNA as compared with normal mice, until at least 12 months of age. A genetic association study, however, indicated that the mutant Ogg1 gene per se is not responsible for the accelerated senescence and short lifespan of SAMP1. Mutant OGG1 may be associated with pathologic conditions in other mouse strains. © 2001 Elsevier Science Inc.

    A 73-year-old man with angiosarcoma of the scalp died about 1 year after disease onset, despite systemic and topical administration of recombinant interleukin-2. Histopathology showed typical changes of endothelial cells with very sparse lymphocytic infiltration into the tumour. An autopsy revealed that the primary site penetrated cranial bone and invaded vertically into the subarachnoid space. Multiple metastases to lung, chest wall, vertebrae and ribs were also found. On immunofluorescence staining, the expression of vascular endothelial cadherin, which is present in normal endothelium, was absent from both primary and metastatic sites. This may have promoted local invasion and metastasis.

    Factors produced by the heart are accumulated at high concentrations in pericardial fluid. We recently reported that pericardial fluid from patients with ischemic heart disease induces apoptosis in an F2 cell line. To characterize factors in pericardial fluid from patients with ischemic heart disease, we investigated signaling pathways by which this pericardial fluid induces apoptosis in cardiac myocytes. Pericardial fluid from patients with ischemic heart disease markedly increased the percentage of TUNEL-positive myocytes compared with fetal bovine serum. Apoptosis was also confirmed by ladder formation and morphologic features. Apoptosis mediated by this pericardial fluid occurs as readily in cardiac myocytes prepared from neonatal mice nullizygous for p53 as in wild-type littermates. This indicates that p53 is not required for this process. We have found that pericardial fluid from ischemic heart disease elicits a robust increase in phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. Specific inhibition of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway with SB 203580 almost completely blocked apoptosis mediated by pericardial fluid from ischemic heart disease. Activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase is caused by cellular stress, including oxidants. We have also found that anti-oxidant catalase inhibited pericardial fluid-induced activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase and apoptosis. These findings demonstrate that myocardial cell apoptosis induced by pericardial fluid from patients with ischemic heart disease is mediated by an oxidant stress-sensitive p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. A possible application of SB 203580 to preserve cardiac function in patients with ischemic heart disease should be discussed.

    Redox regulating mechanisms may be involved in the pathogenesis of viral myocarditis and thioredoxin (TRX) is a small multifunctional protein that contains a redox active sequence. The present study investigated the histopathology and characteristics of TRX expression in acute coxsackievirus B3 myocarditis in inbred strains of mice (severe myocarditis in DBA/2 mice, moderate myocarditis in BALB/c mice and mild myocarditis in C57BL/6 mice). Thioredoxin was upregulated and its expression correlated with the severity of the disease. In addition, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, which is an established marker for oxidative stress, was concominantly positive in damaged myocytes. Thus, TRX may be specifically induced by the acute inflammatory stimuli in murine viral myocarditis, and the severity and development of acute viral myocarditis may be regulated by the cellular redox state.

    Intestinal epithelial cells have an active apical iron uptake system that is involved in the regulated absorption of iron. By the action of this system, intestinal cells acquire increasing amounts of iron with time. Since intracellular reactive iron is a source of free radicals and a possible cause of colon carcinoma, this study analyzed the oxidative damages generated by iron accumulation in Caco-2 cells. Cells cultured with increasing concentrations of iron increased both total intracellular iron and the reactive iron pool, despite an active IRE/IRP system, which regulates intracellular iron levels. Increasing concentrations of iron resulted in increased protein oxidative damage, as shown by the immunoreactivity for 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins, and markedly induced DNA oxidation determined by 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanidine production. Iron also impaired cell viability, resulting in increased cell death after 6 days of culture. In summary, iron accumulation by intestinal Caco-2 cells correlated with oxidative damage to proteins and DNA. Oxidative damage finally resulted in loss of cell viability. The Fe-induced oxidative damage observed may be relevant in understanding the cascade of events associated with iron-mediated colon carcinogenesis.

    OBJECTIVE: Helicobacter pylori infection causes gastric diseases, but the responsible mechanisms are not completely understood. They can involve DNA and tissue damage induced by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. Our aim is to investigate the effects of bacterial eradication on oxidative stress by measuring changes of relevant markers. METHODS: Antral biopsies were obtained from 34 patients with chronic atrophic gastritis and peptic ulcer disease before and after bacterial eradication. The expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and levels of nitrotyrosine (NTYR) and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine were assessed immunohistochemically as markers of nitric oxide (NO) production and of damage to proteins and DNA, respectively. RESULTS: Before treatment, the percentages of patients with staining were: 56 for iNOS in inflammatory cells, 79 and 61 for NTYR and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine in foveolar cells, respectively, and 82 for 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine in lymphoid follicles. NTYR staining was associated with the intensity of inflammation (p = 0.04) and gastritis activity (p = 0.07). The prevalence of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine tended to be associated with that of NTYR. After successful H. pylori eradication, the prevalence of iNOS and NTYR (in mild gastritis) staining decreased (p < 0.001 and p < 0.06, respectively). 8-Hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine staining disappeared in 24% of cases but appeared in 18% of previously negative cases despite eradication. CONCLUSION: Targets of oxidative stress associated with H. pylori infection are inflammatory and deep foveolar cells and lymphoid follicles. This is the first report of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine localization in gastric mucosa. Oxidative stress is reduced by bacterial eradication in the first stages of mild gastritis. Moderate-severe gastritis may be a step that is reversible for iNOS, but partly irreversible for NTYR and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine. © 2001 Am. Coll. of Gastroenterology.

    Protective effects of curcumin (U1), one of the major yellow pigments in turmeric and its derivative, tetrahydrocurcumin (THU1), against ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)-induced oxidative renal damage were studied in male ddY mice. Single Fe-NTA treatment (5 mg Fe/kg body intraperitoneally) transiently causes oxidative stress, as shown by the accumulation of lipid peroxidation products and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine in the kidney. Mice were fed with a diet containing 0.5 g/100 g U1 or THU1 for 4 wk. THU1 significantly inhibited 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins and 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine formation in the kidney; U1 inhibited only 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified protein formation. To elucidate the mechanisms of protection by U1 and THU1, the pharmacokinetics and radical-scavenging capacities of U1 and THU1 were investigated by HPLC and electron spin resonance spin trapping with 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide, respectively. Induction of antioxidant enzymes was also investigated. The amounts of THU1 and its conjugates (as sulfates and glucuronides) in the liver and serum were larger in the THU1 group than in the U1 group. The amounts of U1 and its conjugates were small even in the U1 group. These results suggest that THU1 is more easily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract than U1. Furthermore, THU1 induced antioxidant enzymes, such as glutathione peroxidase, glutathione S-transferase and NADPH: quinone reductase, as well as or better than U1 and scavenged Fe-NTA-induced free radicals in vitro better than U1. These results suggest that U1 is converted to THU1 in vivo and that THU1 is a more promising chemopreventive agent.

    The vitamin D receptor knockout (VDR-KO) mouse presents with a skeletal phenotype typical for complete lack of genomic 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol effects. Our previous data from human colorectal tissue suggest that the steroid hormone and its receptor may have protective function against tumour progression. In order to investigate the relevance of the vitamin D system for pre-malignant site-directed changes in the colon, we characterized the amount and site-specific distribution of the VDR along the large intestine in wild-type (WT), heterozygote (HT) and KO mice. We also evaluated expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), of cyclin D1 and the levels of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a marker of oxidative stress. In colon ascendens, proliferative cells were dispersed all along the crypt and expression levels of all three markers were high in WT mice. A decrease of VDR expression did not affect expression significantly. In colon descendens, however, fewer proliferative cells were solely located in the lower third of the crypt, and an inverse relationship between VDR reduction, PCNA positivity and cyclin D1 expression was found in HT and KO mice. In parallel to enhanced proliferation a highly significant increase of 8-OHdG positivity occurred. Therefore, the sigmoid colon of VDR-KO mice, fed on an appropriate lactose/calcium-enriched diet to alleviate impaired calcium homeostasis-related phenotypic changes, is an excellent model for investigating induction and prevention of pre-malignant changes in one of the hotspots for human colorectal cancer incidence.

    Formation of excess free radical causes cellular oxidative stress, which has been shown to be associated with a variety of pathologic conditions. While electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy has been the only method to demonstrate the presence of free radicals, its application to tissue samples has been challenging. We report here the successful ESR detection in thin-sliced fresh tissues or frozen sections in a rat model. Ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) induces oxidative renal tubular damage that ultimately leads to high incidence of renal carcinoma in rodents. Twenty minutes after administration of 5 mg iron/kg Fe-NTA to rats, a thin-slice of the kidney was mounted on a tissue-type cell and analyzed by ESR spin trapping with 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO). An ESR signal from alkylperoxyl radical adduct was obtained, and the signal was inversely proportional to renal α-tocopherol content which was modulated through diet. Furthermore, we undertook ex vivo study using frozen sections. Fe-NTA (1mM) was added to a rat kidney frozen section for 10 min. After washing the specimen was mounted on a tissue-type cell and analyzed with ESR spin trapping using DMPO. Alkylperoxyl radical signal was dependent on thickness, incubation time and renal tissue levels of α-tocopherol, and was reduced by preincubation with catalase or dimethyl sulfoxide but not with α-tocopherol outside tissue. This versatile method facilitates identification of free radicals in pathologic conditions, and may be useful for selection of antioxidants.

    Insulin plays a crucial role in the regulation of glucose-homeostasis, and its synthesis is regulated by several stimuli. The transcription of the human insulin gene, enhanced by an elevated intracellular concentration of calcium ions, was completely blocked by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. The activity o the transcription factor activating transcription factor-2 (ATF-2), which binds to the cAMP responsive elements of the human insulin gene, was enhanced by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV (CaMKIV). Mutagenesis studies showed that Thr69, Thr71, and Thr73 of ATF-2 are all required for activation by CaMKIV. CaMKIV- induced ATF-2 transcriptional activity was not altered by activation of c-Jun NH2-terminal protein kinase (JNK) or p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. Furthermore, when transfected into rat primary cultured islets, ATF-2 enhanced glucose-induced insulin promoter activity, whereas cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) repressed it. These results suggest a mechanism in which ATF-2 regulates insulin gene expression in pancreatic β- cells, with the transcriptional activity of ATF2 being increased by an elevated concentration of calcium ions.

    Insulin plays a crucial role in the regulation of glucose-homeostasis, and its synthesis is regulated by several stimuli. The transcription of the human insulin gene, enhanced by an elevated intracellular concentration of calcium ions, was completely blocked by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. The activity of the transcription factor activating transcription factor-2 (ATF-2), which binds to the cAMP responsive elements of the human insulin gene, was enhanced by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV (CaMKIV). Mutagenesis studies showed that Thr69, Thr71, and Thr73 of ATF-2 are all required for activation by CaMKIV. CaMKIV-induced ATF-2 transcriptional activity was not altered by activation of cJun NH2-terminal protein kinase (JNK) or p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. Furthermore, when transfected into rat primary cultured islets, ATF-2 enhanced glucose-induced insulin promoter activity, whereas cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) repressed it. These results suggest a mechanism in which ATF-2 regulates insulin gene expression in pancreatic beta-cells, with the transcriptional activity of ATF-2 being increased by an elevated concentration of calcium ions.

    It has recently been shown that the lipid peroxidation product 4- hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) forms a fluorescent hydroxyiminodihydropyrrole derivative with the ε-amino group of lysine residue. In this study, we raised a monoclonal antibody (mAb2C12) directed to the fluorophore-protein conjugate and found that the antibody was specific to the chromophore structure of the compound. Immunohistochemical analysis of atherosclerotic lesions from the human aorta showed that the fluorophore was indeed present in the lesions, in which intense positivity was primarily associated with macrophage-derived foam cells and thickening of the neointima of the arterial walls. Antigenic materials were also detected in the oxidatively modified low-density lipoprotein (LDL) with Cu2+ and in the oxidatively modified bovine serum albumin with an iron/linoleic acid autoxidation system, indicating that the HNE, which originated from the peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids, could be a potential source of the fluorescent chromophore in oxidized LDL.

    OBJECTIVES: Hepatic iron deposition has been reported in chronic hepatitis C (CH-C), and iron-induced lipid peroxidation may be involved in the pathogenesis of CH-C. The aims of the present study were: 1) to determine whether patients with CH-C have evidence of enhanced hepatic lipid peroxidation and to evaluate its relation to iron status, compared with that in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CH-B); and 2) to assess the effect of interferon (IFN) therapy on hepatic iron and lipid peroxidation. METHODS: In the liver biopsies of 40 patients with CH-C and 26 patients with CH-B, immunohistochemical detection of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-protein adducts for evaluation of lipid peroxidation was performed, and hepatic iron status was biochemically and histologically assessed. In 16 CH-C patients with normal serum transaminases and undetectable serum HCV-RNA >6 months after the end of IFN treatment (responders) and in 11 nonresponders, hepatic HNE- protein adducts and siderosis were evaluated in pre- and posttreatment liver biopsies. RESULTS: Hepatocytic HNE-protein adducts and iron deposits were more abundant in the patients with CH-C than in those with CH-B. No correlation was found between the levels of hepatocytic HNE-protein adducts and hepatic iron status in either of the two groups. In the responders to IFN treatment for CH-C, hepatocytic HNE-protein adducts disappeared or attenuated with improvement of hepatic siderosis after the treatment, whereas IFN treatment did not improve hepatocytic expression of HNE-protein adducts and hepatic siderosis in the nonresponders. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with CH-C have evidence of enhanced hepatic iron accumulation and lipid peroxidation compared to those with CH-B. In CH-C, hepatic siderosis and lipid peroxidation are improved with successful IFN treatment. These results suggest that hepatic lipid peroxidation and iron may potentially play contributory roles in the pathogenesis of CH-C. (C) 2000 by Am. Coll. of Gastroenterology.

    8-Hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is one of the most abundant oxidatively modified lesions in DNA. Our previous study (Kondo et al., Free Radic. Biol. Med., 27: 401-410, 1999) revealed that human colorectal carcinoma cells are oxidatively stressed based on 8-OHdG determination. To elucidate 8-OHdG metabolism and its clinical significance in colorectal carcinoma, we studied the 8-OHdG repair system in DNA by measuring specific lyase activity and hOGG1 expression using quantitative-competitive reverse transcription-PCR. In addition, we searched for the presence of mutations and single nucleotide polymorphisms of the hOGG1 gene by single-strand conformational polymorphism and sequencing analyses. It was found that 8- OHdG-specific lyase activity and hOGG1 expression were significantly up- regulated in carcinoma, and a proportional association between 8-OHdG levels and either 8-OHdG lyase activity (r = 0.641, P < 0.05) or hOGG1 expression (r = 0.702, P < 0.05) was present. Whereas no difference was detected in the 8- OHdG level between early- and advanced-stage cancer, lyase activity (1.2- fold) and hOGG1 expression (1.6-fold) were significantly increased in advanced-stage cancer. No mutation was found in the 25 tumors examined. Three kinds of single nucleotide polymorphism were observed, including that of codon 326 (Ser/Cys) in exon 7. However, there was no correlation between any of the three polymorphic patterns and either 8-OHdG level or lyase activity. These results suggest that increased 8-OHdG levels in colorectal carcinoma are attributed to increased formation and are maintained by induced 8-OHdG repair activity at appropriate high levels. Our results may offer a unique approach in the development of preventive and therapeutic interventions as well as new insights into the pathogenesis of colorectal carcinoma.

    Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is an intractable process associated not only with therapeutic recanalization of vessels, but also with partial resection or transplantation of solid organs including liver. To develop methods for predicting the degree of hepatic IR injury and further to identify injured cells, we studied the formation of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxy- guanosine (8-OHdG) and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified proteins in the normothermic hepatic IR model of rats using immunohistochemistry, high- performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) determination and Western blot. The Pringle maneuver for either 15 or 30 min duration produced reversible or lethal damage, respectively. The levels of both products were significantly increased in proportion to ischemia duration 40 min after reperfusion, suggesting the involvement of hydroxyl radicals. Increased immunoreactivity of 8-OHdG was observed not only in the nuclei of hepatocytes but also in those of bile canalicular and endothelial cells. However, immunoreactivity of HNE-modified proteins was detected in the cytoplasm of hepatocytes, which was confirmed by Western blot, and in addition, in the nuclei of hepatocytes after severe injury. Thus, localization of the two oxidatively modified products was not identical. Our data suggest that these two products could be used for the assessment of hepatic IR injury in tissue, but that the biological significance of the two products might be different.

    4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) is one of the major lipid peroxidation products with cytotoxic and mutagenic activity. It further reacts with protein residues such as histidine to generate stable Michael adducts. To evaluate the status of oxidative stress in the serum of type 2 diabetes mellitus, we constructed a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to measure serum HNE-modified albumin by the use of a specific monoclonal antibody (HNEJ-2) against HNE-histidine adducts as well as an antibody against human serum albumin. Serum of type 2 diabetes outpatients revealed significantly higher levels of HNE-modified albumin (736.1 ± 34.2 pmol/ml, n = 54) than the matched nondiabetics (611.4 ± 39.1 pmol/ml, n = 30; means ± SEM; p = 0.018). However, no significant correlation was observed in diabetic outpatients between the levels of HNE-modified albumin and clinical parameters such as fasted blood glucose, HbA1c, diabetes duration, or complications. Our data demonstrated the increased formation of serum HNE-modified albumin in type 2 diabetic outpatients in the milieu between liver and vascular lumina, indicating the presence of oxidative stress.

    Ferric nitrilotriacetate induces oxidative damage in renal proximal tubules that ultimately leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in rats. In search of genes specifically involved in oxystress-induced carcinogenesis, we have applied a modified fluorescent differential display technique to the tumors and an established cell line as well as their non- neoplastic counterparts. We screened approximately 84,000 products. Reverse Northern blotting confirmed differential expression of 20 transcripts, which showed either significant increase, decrease or lack of expression in the RCCs. Five cDNA clones encoded novel products of unknown function. Fifteen cDNA clones were identified by homology search, which included annexin II, Y- box binding protein, ribosomal proteins, heat shock proteins, DNA polymerase, nonmuscle caldesmon (increased); protein tyrosine phosphatase (decreased); selenoprotein P, stromal cell-derived factor 1, intestinal trefoil protein, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, reduced form (NADH) dehydrogenase, and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7 (deleted). Most of the identified genes were associated with stress-response or cellular proliferation. These results suggest that multiple, interactive genetic pathways are involved in carcinogenesis induced by oxidative stress.

    The effect of geranyl-geranyl-acetone (GGA) administration before heat shock preconditioning on heat shock protein (HSP) 72 induction and on the acquisition of tolerance against ischemia-reperfusion injury was studied in rat livers. Male Wistar rats were divided into four groups: a control group (group C); a GGA group (group G); a simple heat shock group (group VH); and a heat shock with GGA premedication group (group GH). Five-, 10-, and 15-minute periods of heat shock preconditioning at 42°C were performed in groups VH and GH. Subgroups were determined according to the period of heat shock exposure. After a 48-hour recovery, rats in groups C, VH5, VH15, and GH5 received a 30-minute period of hepatic ischemia. Induction of HSP72, survival rates, and changes in biochemical and histologic parameters were compared among the groups. Five-minute heat shock preconditioning was not enough to induce HSP72. However, livers in group GH5 expressed approximately the same amount of HSP72 as those in group VH15. The expression of HSP72 in group GH15 was stronger than that found in group VH15. The degree and location of HSP72 expression were not different between groups GH5 and VH15. Seven-day survival was significantly better in groups GH5 (16/16) and VH15 (15/16) than in group C (8/16) or VH5 (9/16). The recovery of adenosine triphosphate in liver tissue was faster, and the release of liver-related enzymes during reperfusion was lower in groups GH5 and VH15 than in group C or VH5. Administration of GGA before heat shock preconditioning augmented the induction of HSP72 by decreasing the threshold for triggering the stress response.

    Prevention of ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is crucial for successful lung transplantation. We investigated whether a nitric oxide donor, nitroglycerin (NTG), could suppress the oxidative stress of IR injury and improve pulmonary function after reperfusion in an ex vivo rat lung perfusion model. In Fresh group of animals, the lungs were flushed with perfusate, followed immediately by reperfusion, and no lung injury was observed. In NTG- and NTG+ groups of animals, the lungs were flushed with perfusate alone or perfusate containing NTG, respectively. Harvested lung and heart blocks from these latter two groups were immersed in the corresponding perfusate at 4°C for 15 h, and were then reperfused for 60 min. Reperfusion induced pulmonary edema in the NTG- group, but not in the NTG + group. Shunt fractions in NTG+ group were significantly lower than in the NTG- group throughout reperfusion. NTG had no effect on pulmonary arterial pressure or myeloperoxidase activity. In contrast, oxidative DNA damage assessed immunohistochemically with a monoclonal antibody against 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) was significantly increased in the NTG- group, in the order alveolar epithelium > pulmonary endothelium > bronchial epithelium. NTG treatment significantly decreased staining with the anti-8-OHdG antibody in all three areas Of tissue. Therefore, administration of NTG attenuates the oxidative stress of IR injury, and may improve pulmonary function after reperfusion.

    A 79-yr-old woman presented with a 5-yr history of swelling of the left cheek. The fine-needle aspiration (FNA) smear showed a spindle-cell neoplasm with capillaries and benign endothelial cells. The spindle cells possessed pleomorphic, hyperchromatic elongated nuclei and a moderate amount of ill- defined cytoplasm. They also showed papillary arcades surrounded and encased by relatively small ovoid to short spindle cells. Subsequent surgical excision confirmed the presence of malignant hemangiopericytoma (HP). Immunohistochemical studies on the histologic section using vimentin were strongly positive, consistent with HP.

    A 79-yr-old woman presented with a 5-yr history of swelling of the left cheek. The fine-needle aspiration (FNA) smear show ed a spindle-cell neoplasm with capillaries and benign endothelial cells. The spindle cells possessed pleomorphic, hyperchromatic elongated nuclei and a moderate amount of ill-defined cytoplasm. They also showed papillary arcades surrounded and encased by relatively: small ovoid to short spindle cells. Subsequent surgical excision confirmed the presence of malignant hemangiopericytoma (HP). Immunohistochemical studies on the histologic section casing vimentin were strongly positive, consistent with HP To the best of our knowledge, this is the second published report of FNA cellular features of malignant HP of the salivary gland.

    Membrane lipids and cytosolic proteins are major targets of oxidative injury. This study examined the effect of heat-shock preconditioning associated with the induction of heat-shock protein 72 on liver injury, from the aspect of lipid peroxidation and protein denaturation after carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) administration in rats - one of the representative oxidative injuries. Male Wistar rats were divided into two groups, group HS (preconditioned by heat exposure) and group C (not preconditioned). Expression of HSP72 in the liver tissue was confirmed by Western blot analysis. After a 48-h recovery period, all rats were given CCl4 intragastrically. Liver damage was assessed by measuring serum liver-related enzyme levels and adenine nucleotide concentration in the liver tissue. Lipid peroxidation and protein denaturation were evaluated by measuring tiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and by immunohistochemical staining of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal(HNE)-modified proteins in the liver. Survival rates of the rats after CCl4 administration were also compared. Expression of HSP72 was clearly detected in group HS, but not in group C. Heat-shock preconditioning significantly improved the survival rate, suppressed the increase in liver-related enzyme levels and maintained adenosine triphosphate levels (P < 0.01 each). HNE-modified proteins - denatured proteins by free radical attack - were significantly less stained in group HS than in group C (P < 0.05). However, TBARS levels did not differ between groups. Because heat-shock preconditioning did not alter TBARS levels but reduced HNE-modified proteins in association with the expression of HSP72, it is suggested that HSP72 did not prevent lipid peroxidation but decreased the lipid peroxidation-induced denaturation of proteins. This seemed to be a mechanism of heat-shock preconditioning to ameliorate oxidative liver injury.

    The interaction of chelators and reducing agents is of particular importance in understanding iron-associated pathology since catalytic iron undergoes cyclic reduction and oxidation in vivo. Therefore, we treated plasmid DNA with free or chelated Fe(III) in the presence of biological reductants, and simultaneously measured the number of single strand breaks (SSBs) and oxidative base modification (8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine; 8-OHdG) by quantitative gel electrophoresis and HPLC with electrochemical detection, respectively. Production of SSBs and 8-OHdG was linearly correlated suggesting that these true different lesions share a common chemical mechanism. The levels of both lesions were enhanced when Fe(III) was chelated to citrate or nitrilotriacetic acid. Reducing agents showed different potency in inducing DNA damage catalyzed by chelated iron (L-ascorbate > L-cysteine > H2O2). Chelation increased SSB formation by ~ 8-fold and 8-OHdG production by ~ 4-fold. The ratio of SSB/8-OHdG catalyzed by chelated iron, which is twice as high as by unchelated iron, indicates that chelation affects iron-catalyzed oxidative DNA damage in a specific way favoring strand breakage over base modification. Since iron is mostly chelated in biological systems, the production of genomic and mitochondrial DNA damage, particularly strand breaks, in diseases involving iron overload is likely to be higher than previously predicted from studies using unchelated iron.

    Both polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies to 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) protein adducts were used to identify lipid peroxidation products in normal human kidney and in selected human kidney cancers using immunoperoxidase techniques at the light microscopic level and immunogold techniques at the ultrastructural level. HNE protein adducts were detected in most cell types in normal kidney, although in highly variable amounts. All six morphologic types of renal tumors examined showed some staining with antibodies to HNE protein adducts, although the intensity of staining Varied considerably depending on tumor type. Renal oncocytoma and the granular cell variant of renal adenocarcinoma both showed greater cytoplasmic staining for HNE protein adducts than the other tumors examined; these tumors both contain high numbers of mitochondria and suggest that mitochondria are a major source of lipid peroxidation products. To test this possibility, immunogold ultrastructural analysis was performed. HNE protein adducts were identified in nuclei and mitochondria in both normal proximal tubule and three types of renal carcinoma examined; these results localize oxidative damage at the subcellular level in both benign and malignant epithelium to nuclei and mitochondria. In conclusion, HNE protein adducts occur in kidneys in both normal and tumor cells, although immunomorphologic analyses suggest less HNE protein adducts in tumor cells.

    The paraoxonase enzyme (PON) gene polymorphism causes a change of methionine (M-allele) to leucine (L-allele). PON may reduce low density lipoprotein oxidation and prevent atherosclerosis. Urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is a sensitive index of oxidative DNA damage. We have studied the association between the PON genotypes and the urinary excretion of 8-OHdG. The study population consisted of 93 Finnish type 2 diabetes patients and 106 non-diabetic control subjects. The 24-h excretion of 8-OHdG was significantly higher in diabetic patients than in control subjects (P < 0.001). In control subjects, the ratio of the 8-OHdG/glomerular filtration rate increased in order of genotype from MM to ML to LL (P < 0.0412). These results suggest that lipid peroxidation may have an effect on DNA oxidation.

    Oxidative stress is associated with important pathophysiological events in a variety of diseases. It has been postulated that free radicals and lipid peroxidation products generated during the process may be responsible for these effects because of their ability to damage cellular components such as membranes, proteins, and DNA. In the present study, we provide evidence that oxidative stress causes a transient impairment of intracellular proteolysis via covalent binding of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), a major end product of lipid peroxidation, to proteasomes. A single intraperitoneal treatment with the renal carcinogen, ferric nitrilotriacetate, caused oxidative stress, as monitored by accumulation of lipid peroxidation products and 8-hydroxy-2'- deoxyguanosine, in the kidney of mice. In addition, transient accumulation of HNE-modified proteins in the kidney was also found by competitive enzyme- linked immunosorbent assay and immunohistochemical analyses. This and the observation that the HNE-modified proteins were significantly ubiquitinated suggested a crucial role of proteasomes in the metabolism of HNE-modified proteins. In vitro incubation of the kidney homogenates with HNE indeed resulted in a transient accumulation of HNE-modified proteins, whereas the proteasome inhibitor significantly suppressed the time-dependent elimination of HNE-modified proteins. We found that, among three proteolytic activities (trypsin, chymotrypsin, and peptidylglutamyl peptide hydrolase activities) of proteasomes, both trypsin and peptidylglutamyl peptide hydrolase activities in the kidney were transiently diminished in accordance with the accumulation of HNE-modified proteins during oxidative stress. The loss of proteasome activities was partially ascribed to the direct attachment of HNE to the protein, based on the detection of HNE-proteasome conjugates by an immunoprecipitation technique. These results suggest that HNE may contribute to the enhanced accumulation of oxidatively modified proteins via an impairment of ubiquitin/proteasome-dependent intracellular proteolysis.

    Few studies have been conducted focusing on a potential role of reactive oxygen species in tumor cell metabolism. Here we studied human colorectal adenocarcinomas and adenomas to determine whether oxidative stress is imposed on cancer cells in vivo and used specific antibodies against 8-hydroxy-2'- deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified proteins, and 3- nitro-L-tyrosine (3-NT) to determine whether there is an association between oxidative stress and cellular proliferation. Higher levels of oxidative modifications in DNA and proteins were observed in carcinoma cells, but not in adenoma cells, than in the corresponding nontumorous epithelial cells by immunohistochemistry as well as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-based 8-OHdG determination. The fraction of proliferating cell nuclear antigen-positive cells was proportionally associated in adenocarcinomas with the staining intensities of 8-OHdG and 3-NT. Furthermore, Western blot analysis of the proteins extracted from carcinoma cells revealed several specific proteins modified by HNE or peroxynitrite. Thus we concluded that colorectal carcinoma, but not adenoma cells, are exposed to more oxidative stress than their corresponding nontumorous epithelial cells, regardless of clinical stage and histology, and further that the oxidative stress in carcinoma cells might stimulate cellular proliferation.

    Ferric nitrilotriacetate induces oxidative damage in renal proximal tubules, a consequence of Fenton-like reaction, that ultimately leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in rats. In order to find common genetic alterations in this oxystress-induced carcinogengesis model, RCCs were produced in F1 hybrid rats between Wistar and Long-Evans strains and genomes were screened for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) with microsatellite polymorphic markers by PCR. Five consecutive markers on chromosome 5 (D5Mgh5, D5Mit9, D5Mgh6, D5Mit11 and D5Mit6) showed LOH in ≥ 40% of the RCCs. As possible candidate tumor suppressor genes on chromosome 5, p15(INK4B) and p16(INK4A) were investigated for genetic alteration and aberrant methylation by Southern blot, PCR/SSCP/sequencing and methylation-specific PCR. Genetic alteration (homozygous or hemizygous deletion with or without point mutation) or aberrant methylation were found in 30.7 and 53.8% of the RCC cases, respectively, which was proportionally associated with the histological nuclear grade and metastatic activity. Our data suggest that inactivation of p15 and p16 genes could be one of the major pathways responsible for oxystress-induced carcinogenesis.

    A simple and rapid enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method for quantitation of acrolein and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified proteins was developed. Microtiter plate wells were precoated and blocked simultaneously with epitope-bound bovine caseins as matrix proteins, and aldehyde-modified proteins were quantitated by a competition assay with a monoclonal antibody specific for acrolein-modified lysine or HNE-modified histidine epitopes. Minimal reaction times required for the coating/blocking; first monoclonal antibody and the peroxidase-conjugated second antibody binding steps were 3, 3, and 7 min, respectively, the former two steps being found to be or akin to diffusion-rate-limiting reactions. The convenient ELISA should find an application for analyses of the intricate processes involved in oxidative stress and carcinogenic insult. The epitope-attachment methodology may also be advantageous for the quantitation of various other biologically important haptenic molecules.

    We used immunofluorescence staining (monoclonal antibody N45.1) with cytological imprinting to study changes in the intranuclear distribution of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine in renal cells of male Wistar rats after oxidative stress by ferric nitrilotriacetate. In the control proximal tubule cells, small spherical signals were uniformly distributed throughout the nuclei. Under oxidative stress, immunofluorescence intensity was increased, especially near nuclear membrane. In cells with nuclear shrinkage or deformity, intense, diffuse signals throughout the nuclei were observed. Our results suggest that specific nuclear sites are vulnerable to oxidative DNA damage and that diffuse intense signals precede cell death after oxidative stress.

    Recent studies have clarified that reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in a diversity of biological phenomena including radiation damage, carcinogenesis, ischemia-reperfusion injury, diabetes mellitus and neurodegenerative diseases. The breakthrough of these fruitful accomplishments was the discovery of an enzyme, superoxide dismutase, by McCord and Fridovich in 1968. In the 1970s and 80s, biochemists and radiation biologists were attracted by the role of ROS in its irreversible damage to biological molecules. In the 1990s, ROS were further found to be a reversible modulator of protein structure as well, and this led to a recent rapid data accumulation on the association of ROS and transcription factors. At the same time, methods to localize ROS-induced damage in paraffin-embedded tissues have been established. This owes to a successful production of antibodies against covalently modified structures specific for ROS-induced damage. The epitopes include 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins. The present article reviews histochemical and immunohistochemical methods to localize ROS-induced damage in tissues and cells, further comments on the association of ROS with transcription factors, and shows a prospective view of ROS-induced carcinogenesis.

    4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified proteins and 3-nitro-L-tyrosine were evaluated as a specific marker of reactive oxygen species (ROS)- and nitric oxide (NO)-mediated peroxynitrite-induced tissue injuries in ischemic and reperfused skin flap by Western blot analysis. Specimens were taken from island skin flaps of rats during the following three conditions: ischemia only, 5 hours of ischemia and reperfusion, and 10 hours of ischemia and reperfusion. HNE-modified proteins and 3-nitro-L-tyrosine increased with ischemic time (3, 6, and 10 hours postischemia). In the reperfused skin flap after both 5 and 10 hours of ischemia, HNE-modified proteins and 3-nitro-L- tyrosine were increased 3 hours postreperfusion, and they reached a maximum 6 hours after reperfusion. HNE-modified proteins and 3-nitro-L-tyrosine 1 hour postreperfusion were higher with 10 hours ischemia-reperfusion than with 5 hours ischemia-reperfusion. These results indicate (1) that ROS- and NO- induced peroxynitrite-mediated cytotoxicity in ischemic flaps is dependent on the ischemic period and (2) that ROS- and NO-induced peroxynitrite-mediated cytotoxicity occurs during an early stage of reperfusion if the ischemic period is long.

    We report the case of a 62-year-old man with a squamous cell carcinoma of the thyroid gland which had invaded the hypopharynx. Primary squamous cell carcinoma of the thyroid gland is extremely rare. Its clinical course is very aggressive and the prognosis is poor. The patient underwent a radical resection of the thyroid, hypopharynx, larynx and resection of the trachea and esophagus was conducted concomitantly with bilateral neck dissection. Reconstruction of the terminal tracheostomy in the anterior mediastinum was created using a pectoralis major muscle flap.

    Arsenic is widely distributed in nature in the form of either metalloids or chemical compounds, which cause a variety of pathologic conditions including cutaneous and visceral malignancies. Recently, reactive oxygen species have been hypothesized to be one of the causes of arsenic-induced carcinogenesis. 8-Hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine is one of the major reactive oxygen species-induced DNA base-modified products that is widely accepted as a sensitive marker of oxidative DNA damage. We studied the presence of 8- hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine by immunohistochemistry using N45.1 monoclonal antibody in 28 cases of arsenic-related skin neoplasms and arsenic keratosis as well as in 11 cases of arsenic-unrelated Bowen's diseases. The frequency of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine positive cases was significantly higher in arsenic-related skin neoplasms (22 of 28; 78%) than in arsenic-unrelated Bowen's disease (one of 11; 9%) (p < 0.001 by χ2 test). 8-Hydroxy-2'- deoxyguanosine was also detected in normal tissue adjacent to the arsenic- related Bowen's disease lesions. Furthermore, arsenic was detected by neutron activation analysis in the deparaffined skin tumor samples of arsenic- related disease (four of five; 80%), whereas arsenic was not detected in control samples. Our results strongly suggest the involvement of reactive oxygen species in arsenic-induced human skin cancer.

    Reactive oxygen species are involved in a diversity of biological phenomena such as inflammation, carcinogenesis, aging, and atherosclerosis. We and other investigators have shown that the level of 8-hydroxy-2'- deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a marker for oxidative stress, is increased in either the urine or the mononuclear cells of the blood of type 2 diabetic patients. However, the association between type 2 diabetes and oxidative stress in the pancreatic β-cells has not been previously described. We measured the levels of 8-OHdG and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified proteins in the pancreatic β-cells of GK rats, a model of nonobese type 2 diabetes. Quantitative immunohistochemical analyses with specific antibodies revealed higher levels of 8-OHdG and HNE-modified proteins in the pancreatic β-cells of GK rats than in the control Wistar rats, with the levels increasing proportionally with age and fibrosis of the pancreatic islets. We further investigated whether the levels of 8-OHdG and HNE-modified proteins would be modified in the pancreatic β-cells of GK rats fed with 30% sucrose solution or 50 ppm of voglibose (α-glucosidase inhibitor). In the GK rats, the levels of 8-OHdG and HNE-modified proteins, as well as islet fibrosis, were increased by sucrose treatment but reduced by voglibose treatment. These results indicate that the pancreatic β-cells of GK rats are oxidatively stressed, and that chronic hyperglycemia might be responsible for the oxidative stress observed in the pancreatic β-cells.

    1990年〜1997年迄に術中腫瘍捺印細胞診が施行された卵巣粘液性腫瘍は34例で,良性が16例,境界悪性が12例,悪性が6例であった.術中腫瘍捺印細胞診の正診率は,良性と悪性に関しては100%であったが,境界悪性では75%で誤判定例は全て良性と判定していた.著者等は境界悪性例を中心とした細胞像と,誤判定を防ぐための新しい圧挫標本の併用について検討した.境界悪性腫瘍の細胞像の特徴は,背景が比較的綺麗で,良性例に比べて重積性が増し,乳頭状の集団やボール状の集団が出現していることであった.個々の細胞異型に関しては,良性例に比べてN/C比の増大や,核クロマチン増量,核小体の肥大が部分的に観察されるものの著明ではなく,悪性例とは区別が可能と思われた.良性と誤判定した例は,上皮性成分の出現数の少なさがその最大の原因と思われ,圧挫標本の作製を加えることにより正診率の向上が期待できるものと思われた

    The decreased tolerance of steatotic livers to warm ischemia complicates liver surgery. The efficacy of heat shock preconditioning in steatotic livers to lessen ischemia-reperfusion injury was studied in rats. Steatotic liver was produced in Lewis rats with a choline-deficient diet. Rats with steatotic livers were divided into a heat shock preconditioned group (group HS) and a control group (group C). All rats received 45 min of hepatic warm ischemia. Survival rates and changes in biochemical and histological parameters were compared in both groups. Heat shock protein 72 (HSP72) was produced only in group HS. The 7-day survival of the rats after warm ischemic intervention was significantly better in group HS (13/15) than in group C (5/15) (P < 0.01). The concentration of ATP in liver tissue (n = 10, P < 0.01) and serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase (n = 10, P < 0.05), alanine aminotransferase (n = 10, P < 0.01), and lactic dehydrogenase (n = 10, P < 0.01) at 40 min reperfusion were also significantly better in group HS than in group C. Histological examination at 40 min reperfusion showed severe sinusoidal congestion, hepatocyte necrosis, and increased positivity to 4-hydroxy-2- nonenal-modified proteins in group C livers; these signs were markedly suppressed in group HS livers. The data indicate that heat shock preconditioning provides the steatotic rat liver with significant tolerance to warm ischemia-reperfusion injury.

    Ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) induces renal proximal tubular damage that ultimately leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in rats. The RCCs are characterized by 1) high incidence of pulmonary metastasis and peritoneal invasion, 2) high incidence of tumor-associated mortality and 3) possible involvement of reactive oxygen species in carcinogenesis. The present study investigated the possible role of Tsc2 and VHL tumor suppressor genes in this model. Thirty-four Fe-NTA-induced primary RCCs and 20 other primary or metastatic tumors of rats were searched for genetic alteration in all the coding exons of both genes by polymerase chain reaction-single-strand-conformation polymorphism analysis and sequencing in conjunction with morphological evaluation. In the Fe-NTA-induced RCCs, frequency of metastasis or invasion was proportionally associated with the nuclear grade of the tumor (grades 1-3). Only one Fe-NTA-induced RCC of grade 1 revealed missense mutations with loss of heterozygosity in exon 10 of the Tsc2 gene (codons 334, GTG (Val) to GCG (Ala), and 336, TAT (Tyr) to CAT (His)). No mutation was found in the VHL gene. The results suggest that 1) high-grade RCCs can develop in the absence of mutations in the Tsc2 and VHL genes in rats, and that 2) Tsc2 gene somatic mutation can nonetheless be one of the causes of non-Eker rat RCCs.

    An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), induces renal proximal tubular damage, a consequence of iron-catalysed Fenton-like reactions, that finally leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in rodents. Glutathione S-transferase (GST) is a family of enzymes that play an important role in detoxification of hydrophobic and electrophilic molecules, and has been associated with putative preneoplastic foci of rat hepatocarcinogenesis and chemotherapy-resistance of human cancers. Our previous study revealed an induction of π-class glutathione S-transferase (Yp) mRNA in the kidney 3 h after administration of Fe-NTA. In the present study, expression of GST isozymes were further investigated in the Fe-NTA-induced RCCs of rats which are characterized by (1) high incidence of metastasis and invasion, (2) high incidence of tumour-associated mortality, and (3) possible involvement of reactive oxygen species in carcinogenesis. In the Fe-NTA-induced RCCs, the levels of α-class GST (Ya) mRNA and proteins were markedly decreased with no apparent change in the copy number of the gene. In contrast, GST-Yp mRNA and proteins were significantly increased in the RCCs while the total GST enzymatic activity was decreased. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed intense staining of GST-Yp not only in the primary RCCs and its metastatic sites, but also in their non-tumorous part of proximal tubules. The contrastive expression of GST isozymes in this renal carcinogenesis model suggests an alteration of its transcription mechanisms and warrants further investigation of this particular detoxifying enzyme from the viewpoint of reactive oxygen species-induced carcinogenesis.

    4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) is one of the major components of lipid peroxidation product and has been shown to react with proteins to form HNE-protein adducts. HNE-protein adducts are relatively stable and can be used as a marker of radical-mediated cellular damage. We report herein the immunohistochemical analysis of HNE-protein adducts in human alcoholic liver diseases using a specific monoclonal antibody HNEJ-2. Cytoplasm of hepatocytes and bile duct epithelia was positively stained for HNE-protein adducts, and the nucleus was negligibly stained. The immunohistochemical intensity of hepatocytes was classified into three groups: strong, moderate, and faint staining. Strong staining was found in 43% of alcoholic liver diseases and in 4% of viral liver diseases. Hepatocytes of alcoholic liver diseases contained a higher amount of HNE-protein adducts than those of viral liver diseases, and the difference was statistically significant (p = 0.005; chi(2) test). Semiquantitative analysis of the histological intensities of HNE-protein adducts and iron indicated a significant positive correlation (p = 0.084; Spearman's rank correlation). The localization of HNE-protein adducts and iron in hepatocytes appeared to be identical. These data suggested the correlation between HNE-protein adducts and iron. Our results indicate that HNE-protein adducts, a marker of oxidative stress-induced damage, are increased in human alcoholic liver damage, and that hepatic siderosis may act on the production of free radicals.

    A free radical gas, nitric oxide, has many useful functions when produced under physiological conditions by neurons and endothelial cells. However, excess nitric oxide has been reported to exert cytotoxic effects by direct toxicity or by reaction with superoxide. The effect of nitric oxide on the microcirculation in the periphery of a flap remains unclear, and its effect on flap survival is also unknown because nitric oxide has a dual action. Thus, we attempted to clarify the effect of nitric oxide on survival of rat random pattern skin flaps by the use of an endothelial constitutive nitric oxide synthase inhibitor (IP administration of 50 mg/kg N(G)-nitro-L- arginine) and the substrate of nitric oxide synthase (IP administration of 1 g/kg L-arginine). Three kinds of experiments were done using a total number of 120 animals: (1) time course measurement of blood flow in the flap periphery was performed using a laser Doppler flowmeter (30 rats), (2) tile length of the surviving area of flaps was measured 1 week after raising the flap (60 rats), and (3) Western blot analysis was used to determine the time course of changes ill tile amount of endothelial constitutive nitric oxide synthase and the formation of 3-nitro-L-tyrosine, which is it marker of peroxynitrite-mediated (i.e., nitric oxide-dependent) tissue damage (30 rats). Inhibition of endothelial constitutive nitric oxide synthase by N(G)- nitro-L-arginine significantly decreased the length of the surviving area of skin flap (p < 0.01 compared with the control), which was associated with a decrease in tim blood flow of the proximal portion of the flap. On the other hand, exogenous L-arginine increased the survival length of skin flap significantly (p < 0.01 compared with the control), which was associated with all increase in blood flow of the distal portion of the flap even though there was nitric oxide-mediated oxidative tissue damage. These results suggest that nitric oxide produced by endothelial constitutive nitric oxide synthase plays a role in maintaining circulation in the skin flap periphery and that L-arginine administration contributes to reduction of ischemic necrosis in the skin flap.

    Although various antioxidants have been tested as therapeutics for endotoxemic subjects, the results of their efficacy are conflicting. Antioxidant biofactor (AOB) is a unique processed grain food that exhibits strong antioxidant activity (Minamiyama et al, J Nutr Sci Vitaminol, 40: 467- 477, 1994). The present study was carried out to test the effect of AOB on hepatic injury in rats induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Intravenous administration of LPS induced liver injury with a concomitant increase in hepatic generation of nitric oxide (NO) and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) modified proteins in the control group. The administration of AOB significantly inhibited the LPS-induced hepatic injury and generation of HNE- modified proteins and increased the survival rate of endotoxemic rats without affecting NO generation and plasma levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF- α) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ). AOB scavenged superoxide radicals without affecting NO production by LPS-stimulated macrophage cell line J 774.2 cells. AOB also inhibited lipid peroxidation induced by LPS in the cells. These results suggested that AOB might scavenge superoxide radicals and decrease toxic metabolites including HNE, thereby inhibiting liver injury in endotoxemic rats.

    Urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) has been reported to serve as a sensitive biomarker of oxidative DNA damage and also of oxidative stress. We have investigated oxidative DNA damage in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) by urinary 8-OHdG assessments. We determined the total urinary excretion of and OHdG from 24 h urine samples of 81 NIDDM patients 9 years after the initial diagnosis and of 100 non-diabetic control subjects matched for age and gender. The total 24 h urinary excretion of 8-OHdG was markedly higher in NIDDM patients than in control subjects (68.2 ± 39.4 μg vs, 49.6 ± 37.7 μg, P= 0.001). High glycosylated hemoglobin was associated with a high level of urinary 8-OHdG. The increased excretion of urinary and OHdG is seen as indicating an increased systemic level of oxidative DNA damage in NIDDM patients.

    Malondialdehyde (MDA), a naturally occurring dialdehyde produced in the membrane lipid peroxidation, is known to react with lysine residues of proteins, but the MDA-lysine adducts generated in the proteins have not been characterized adequately. In the present study, we provide evidence that the enaminal-type MDA-lysine adduct, N(ε)-(2-propenal)lysine, is formed in human low-density lipoprotein (LDL) upon reaction with MDA or Cu2+. We found that the incubation of N(α)acetyllysine with MDA generated N(α)-acetyl-N(ε)- (2-propenal)lysine as the predominant product. In addition, a polyclonal antiserum raised against the MDA-modified protein was found to contain antibody populations that could be purified by affinity gel prepared by covalent attachment of N(α)-acetyl-N(ε)-(2-propenal)lysine. It was concluded that the affinity-purified anti-N(ε)-(2-propenal) lysine antibody was highly specific to the enaminal derivative of both lysine residues and phosphatidylethanolamine, based on the observations that (i) MDA was the only aldehyde which generated immunoreactive materials in proteins; (ii) among structurally defined MDA-lysine adducts tested, the antibody recognized the enaminal adduct only; and (iii) immunoreactivity to N(2-propenal)serine was still significant but much weaker than its reactivity to N-(2- propenal)ethanol- amine. Furthermore, analysis of antibody recognition sites with a variety of N-(2-propenal)alkylamines revealed that the mono-specific antibody recognized the N-2-propenal-N-ethyl moiety [-(CH2)2-NH-CH=CH - CHO] of enaminal adducts. Determination by a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay demonstrated that N(ε)-(2-propenal)lysine accounted for 33.7 and 3.1% of the lysine residues that disappeared during in vitro incubation of LDL with MDA and Cu2+, respectively. These results suggest that N(ε)-(2-propenal)lysine represents a major form of MDA covalently attached to proteins.

    Adult T-cell leukemia-derived factor (ADF), originally defined as an interleukin-2 receptor inducer, is a human thioredoxin (TRX). ADF/TRX is a conserved multifunctional reductant presumably associated with redox regulation of the cellular environment; it works in vitro as a cytokine, free radical scavenger, activator of transcription factors, and substrate for several enzymes. In the present series of experiments, we studied the expression and intracellular localization of ADF/TRX in mouse kidney from two different renal tubular injury models: a free radical-associated model with ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) and a free radical-independent model with HgCI2. Markers of oxidative damage, such as 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances, and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins, were significantly increased in kidney from male C57BL/6 mice 1 hour after a single intraperitoneal injection of Fe-NTA (5 mg iron/kg). However, in kidney from mice given a subcutaneous injection of HgCI2 (5 mg Hg/kg), none of these markers were increased, despite tubular necrosis with sulfhydryl depletion. In the Fe-NTA model only, Northern and Western blot analyses of the kidney revealed induction of ADF/TRX (> 2.5-fold) after 16 hours and translocation of ADF/TRX from the cytoplasmic to nuclear fraction (> 3.5-fold) after 24 hours. Immunohistochemistry showed a catchy distribution of ADF/TRX in the normal renal proximal tubules. In ex vivo experiments using serial normal kidney frozen sections, it was found mat renal proximal tubules with low expression of ADF/FRX were more vulnerable to oxidative stress mediated by Fe-NTA. Collectively, these data suggest that: (a) ADF/TRX is induced and translocated to nuclei by oxidative damage mediated by Fe-NTA in the renal proximal tubules: (b) induction of ADF/TRX is independent of tubular necrosis or sulfhydryl depletion; and (c) ADF/TRX is involved in the cellular defense mechanisms in vive against oxidative damage.

    Ratios of urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine to urinary creatinine (8-OHdG/creatinine) have been considered as a good biological indicator of DNA oxidation. Urinary 8-OHdG/creatinine levels of lung cancer patients were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using a monoclonal antibody N45.1 during radiotherapy and chemotherapy. An increase in urinary 8-OHdG/creatinine was found in non-small-cell carcinoma (non-SCC) patients during the course of radiotherapy. SCC patients showed higher levels of urinary 8-OHdG/creatinine than the controls. Furthermore, SCC patients with complete or partial response to the chemotherapy showed a significant decrease in urinary 8-OHdG/creatinine while patients with no change or progressive disease showed an increase.

    The protective effect of αG-Rutin against ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)-induced renal damage was studied in male ICR mice. Fe-NTA induces renal lipid peroxidation, leading to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma in rodents. Administration of αG-Rutin (50 μmol as rutin/kg) by gastric intubation 30 min after i.p. injection of Fe-NTA (7 mg Fe/kg) most effectively suppressed renal lipid peroxidation. Repeated i.p. injection of Fe-NTA (2 mg Fe/kg/day for the first 3 days and 3 mg Fe/kg/day for 12 days, 5 days a week) causes subacute nephrotoxicity as revealed by induction of karyomegalic cells in renal proximal tubules. A protective effect was observed in mice given αG-Rutin 30 min after each Fe-NTA treatment. To elucidate the mechanism of protection by αG-Rutin, the pharmacokinetics and hydroxyl radical-scavenging effect of αG-Rutin were investigated by HPLC analysis and by electron spin resonance (ESR) spin trapping with 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO), respectively. When mice were given αG-Rutin (50 μmol as rutin/kg) by gastric intubation, rapid absorption into the circulation was observed. The plasma concentration of αG-Rutin reached the highest level 30 min after oral administration and then decreased to the control level within 60 min. αG-Rutin inhibited the formation of DMPO-OH in a concentration-dependent manner. Further, chelating activity of αG-Rutin to ferric ions was shown by spectrophotometric analysis. These results suggest that absorbed αG-Rutin works as an antioxidant in vivo either by scavenging reactive oxygen species or by chelating ferric ions and this serves to prevent oxidative renal damage in mice treated with Fe-NTA.

    The copper and iron status in the liver of non-tumor bearing Long-Evans Cinnamon (LEC) rats (average age 17 months) was investigated. A direct quantitation of loosely-bound copper anti iron was also investigated by using a chelating agent, nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA-chelatable free copper and iron). Besides the total copper and iron contents, the level of NTA-chelatable free copper was also higher in LEC rats than in LEA rats (P&lt;0.05). But for the free iron level there was no significant difference between the two rat groups (P&gt;0.05). The formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances was higher in LEC rats than in LEA mts (P&lt;0.01). The 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified proteins were also clearly demonstrated in LEC rat liver. The copper and iron which produced the most important effect in the process of oxidative damage in LEC rats could not be distinguished. Even though free copper, which could induce free radical injuries, was increased in LEC rats, neither tumor-induction nor preneoplastic lesions in the experimental LEC rats were observed. therefore it is speculated that the elevation of a free iron is another important factor. Copper and iron, both important transition metals In the body, may participate in the induction of DNA damage and oncogenesis.

    The DNA base-modified product 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is one of the most commonly used markers for the evaluation of oxidative DNA damage. A monoclonal antibody specific for 8-OHdG (N45.1) was characterized end applied in quantitative immunohistochemistry. N45.1 recognized both the modified base and deoxyribose structure of 8-OHdG and required a concentration two orders higher of 8-hydroxyguanosine as a competitor in the ELISA. In addition, N45.1 did not cross-react with the original four deoxyribonucleosides, other DNA base-modified products such as 8-hydroxy-2'- deoxyadenosine and O6-methyl-2'-deoxyguanosine, or urine components such as uric acid, creatine, and creatinine. A ferric nitrilotriacetate-induced rat renal carcinogenesis model was used for the evaluation of quantitative immunohistochemistry. The 8-OHdG index of quantitative immunohistochemistry, as analyzed by NIH Image freeware, correlated reasonably well with the 8- OHdG amount determined by high-performance liquid chromatography with an electrochemical detector-except for a difference in peak time, which could be attributed to the selection of target location. The present method has advantages over the high-performance liquid chromatography/electrochemical detector, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, and 32P-postlabeling methods in that it allows localization of 8-OHdG to be specified without the risk of artifactual production of 8-OHdG during the DNA extraction and hydrolytic processes.

    An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), induces renal proximal tubular necrosis associated with lipid peroxidation and oxidative DNA damage that finally leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma in rodents. In the present study, we investigated what kinds of C2-12 saturated and unsaturated aldehydes and C7-12 acyloins, metabolites of saturated aldehydes, are produced in the kidney and liver within 24 h after single ip administration of 15 mg Fe/kg of Fe-NTA, or after repeated (1 or 3 wk) ip administration of 5-10 mg Fe/kg of Fe-NTA. Amounts of twenty one aldehydes and five acyloins were determined by capillary column gas chromatography-negative-ion chemical ionization mass spectrometry with ammonia as reagent gas. Most of the aldehydes and all the acyloins measured revealed a significant dose-dependent increase 1 to 3 h after single administration in the kidney, among which 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) showed the highest increase (27.3-fold) and malondialdehyde (MDA) was the most abundant aldehyde (2.40 nmol/100 mg wet tissue). In the liver, however, the increase in aldehydes and acyloins was less prominent. After repeated administration of Fe-NTA, only 9 aldehydes (ethanal; furfural; trans, trans- 2,4-heptadienal; nonanal; trans-2, cis-6 nonadienal; HNE; decanal; trans-4, cis-4-decenal; MDA) and 4 acyloins (3-hydroxyheptan-2-one; 3-hydroxyoctan-2- one; 3-hydroxynonan-2-one; 3-hydroxydodecan-2-one) showed a significant increase. Immunohistochemistry further demonstrated an increased amount of HNE-modified and MDA-modified proteins in the renal proximal tubules after repeated Fe-NTA administration. Some of the aldehydes measured such as HNE and MDA are reportedly cytotoxic, genotoxic and mutagenic. Accumulation of these aldehydes may play a role in this renal carcinogenesis model.

    An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), induces renal proximal tubular necrosis, a consequence of free radical-associated damage, that ultimately leads to a polycystic change of the renal cortex and a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in rodents. The differential display technique was used to search for inducible genes in the kidney of male Wistar rats treated with Fe-NTA and in the induced RCCs. Six fragments were selected that showed specific quantitative changes in mRNA. Two of them exhibited similar patterns in northern blots as well. One fragment showed a high homology (89%) to murine integrin-associated protein (IAP; CD47). We thus cloned rat IAP cDNA including the entire coding region for use in further analysis. Rat IAP cDNA showed a 21-amino-acid deletion that was also observed in human, but not in mouse. Northern blots revealed that IAP was consistently overexpressed in non-tumorous parts of the kidney (2.4-fold increase, n = 9, P < 0.0001) as compared with matched controls 1 to 2 years after Fe-NTA treatment. IAP overexpression of more than 2.9-fold was found in 25% (2/8) of RCCs studied, and was limited to cases of a high histological grade and lung metastasis. Unexpectedly, IAP expression was higher in the non-tumorous part of the kidney after Fe-NTA treatment (2.8-fold) than in RCC (1.5-fold) in each case (n = 4, P < 0.05). Abundant expression of IAP mRNA in the renal tubular epithelium after Fe-NTA treatment and RCC cells was observed by in situ hybridization. The results suggest that IAP overexpression may be associated with Fe-NTA-induced renal cortical tubular damage and regeneration that lead to a polycystic state, and with tumor progression and metastasis of the induced RCCs.

    Ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) is a renal toxicant and carcinogen in rats and mice. We found that its administration results in formation of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) in the renal proximal tubule cells of rats, and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) adducts in their DNA, suggesting a role for oxidative stress. Since 2-mercaptoethane sulfonate (MESNA) and N-acetylcysteine (NAC), administered orally, have been shown to increase the kidney levels of free thiol groups, their influence on the renal toxicity and carcinogenicity induced by Fe-NTA was examined in the present study. Male Wistar rats were intraperitoneally injected with Fe-NTA (12 mg Fe/kg), and MESNA (100 mg/kg) or NAC (200 mg/kg) was given orally 1 h before and 1 h after this treatment. The animals were killed for tissue analyses 3 h after the Fe-NTA exposure. In accord with our previous reports, HNE-modified protein was detected in the proximal tubules of Fe-NTA-treated rats by means of immunohistochemistry. Likewise, levels of 8-OHdG in the renal nuclear DNA, lipid peroxides as thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances in the kidneys, and blood urea nitrogen and creatinine in the serum were significantly increased by the Fe-NTA treatment. All of these changes were completely inhibited by oral administration of MESNA or NAG. These results suggest that both of these compounds can prevent the oxidative stress induced by Fe-NTA.

    Systemic administration of copper, an essential trace metal in the human body, has never been reported to be carcinogenic in animals. We investigated the induction of tumors by the cupric complex of nitrilotriacetic acid (Cu- NTA) in male Wistar rats. Thirty-two animals received ip injections of Cu- NTA, 3 to 5 mg of copper/kg body weight 5 days a week for 12 weeks, and were kept under close observation. For comparison, 31 animals received ip injections of ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), 5 to 10 mg of iron/kg body weight, and 16 animals received nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) alone at the molar dose equivalent to Cu-NTA for the same period of time. Sixteen animals were left untreated as controls. Fourteen animals in the Cu-NTA group died of hepatic failure during the treatment period, and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) was induced in eight animals (25%). Of these, four animals died of either pulmonary metastasis or intraperitoneal hemorrhage. A total of 12 RCC were obtained, of which six tumors were ≤5 mm. The Cu-NTA group yielded fewer RCC and required a longer latent period for their incubation than the Fe-NTA group. Furthermore, the Cu-NTA group showed one hepatocellular carcinoma and one high-grade sarcoma of hepatic origin. No renal or hepatic tumor was observed in the NTA or control groups. The nontumorous part of the kidney treated with Cu-NTA presented hemosiderosis caused by copper-induced hemolytic anemia. This is the first report that systemic administration of copper compounds can induce malignant tumors in animals. Not only copper but also iron may play a role in the Cu-NTA-induced renal carcinogenesis model.

    An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), induces acute renal proximal tubular necrosis, a consequence of free radical-mediated oxidative tissue damage, that eventually leads to a high incidence of renal adenocarcinoma in rodents. In the present study, we investigated the free radical-induced oxidative stress response in this carcinogenesis model, focusing on the expression of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) which catalyze the conjugation of reactive chemicals with glutathione and play an important role in protecting cells. A single intraperitoneal Fe-NTA treatment (15 mg Fe/kg body weight) induced a rapid oxidative stress, which was monitored by the accumulation of lipid peroxidation products and the loss of sulfhydryl contents in the kidneys, resulting in a 30% reduction of GST activity 1 h after an Fe-NTA treatment. The enzyme activity returned to the control level after 16 h. The immunoblot analysis of GST isozymes demonstrated that the level of α-class GSTs (GST-Ya and GST-Yc) and π- class GST (GST-Yp), major GST isozymes constitutively produced in the kidney, decreased immediately within 1 h of the Fe-NTA treatment. The onset of the recovery of GST-Yp protein levels was detected 3 h after the Fe-NTA treatment. The enhanced production of GST-Yp in gene expression was evident in the drastic elevation of mRNA levels and these increases coincided with a substantial rise in the GST activity and protein levels. The α-class GSTs were not inducible by treatment with Fe-NTA. The immunohistochemical analysis demonstrated that the expression of GST-Yp was strongly induced in the regenerating proximal tubular cells. A steady accumulation of GST-Yp protein was observed in the subacute toxicity experiments with multiple injections of Fe-NTA. These results suggest that the enhanced expression of GST-Yp is important in mediating cell repairs or increasing the resistance to subsequent injury.

    Data regarding oxidatively modified DNA bases suggest that cancer cells are more exposed to oxidative stress than adjacent non-tumorous tissue. This novel concept may contribute to the understanding of certain aspects of tumor biology such as activated transcription factors, genetic instability, chemotherapy resistance and metastasis. We therefore tested this concept in human renal-cell carcinomas (RCCs) by evaluating the expression of hMTHI, an enzyme preventing the misincorporation into DNA of 8-oxo-dGTP (8-oxo-7,8 -dihydrodeoxyguanosine triphosphate), an oxidized form of dGTP in the nucleotide pool. The expression of hMTHI messenger RNA (mRNA) in RCC was significantly higher than that in adjacent nontumorous kidney. Moreover, advanced-stage tumors showed significantly higher hMTHI mRNA expression than early-stage tumors, and there was a modest linear correlation between hMTHI expression and c-myc expression. The results provide logical support for the concept of 'persistent oxidative stress in cancer' and suggest a role of hMTHI mRNA level as prognostic marker.

    Iron overload with ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) induces acute renal proximal tubular necrosis, a consequence of oxidative tissue damage, that leads to a high incidence of renal adenocarcinoma in rodents. In the present study, we determined the proteins preferentially produced in response to the Fe-NTA-induced oxidative injury. A single intraperitoneal Fe-NTA treatment led to the enhanced production of a number of proteins with molecular masses of 85-95 kDa. These included heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) as determined by immunoprecipitation. The enhanced production of HSP90 was prominent in the renal tubular cells. Steady accumulation of HSP90 was observed in the subacute toxicity experiments with multiple injections of Fe-NTA, suggesting that the enhanced production of HSP90 is important in increasing resistance to subsequent injury caused by the Fe-NTA-induced oxidative stress.

    Redox cycling is a characteristic of transition metals such as iron. Iron is hypothesized to have been actively involved in the birth of primitive life on earth through the generation of reducing equivalents in the presence of UV light. Iron is an essential metal in mammals for oxygen transport by hemoglobin and for the function of many enzymes including catalase and cytochromes. However, the 'free' or 'catalytic' form of iron mediates the production of reactive oxygen species via the Fenton reaction and induces oxidative stress. Serum 'free' iron is observed in rare situations such as in severe hemochromatosis in which serum transferrin is saturated. However, it is known that superoxide can release 'free' iron from ferritin and hemosiderin in the cell. 'Free' iron is quite cytotoxic as well as mutagenic and carcinogenic. Iron compounds were first reported to induce sarcomas in rats by Richmond in 1959. Thereafter, several iron-induced carcinogenesis models were established, including the ferric nitrilotriacetate model by Okada and colleagues. Iron may have a role in the carcinogenic process of other transition metals such as copper and nickel, or other kinds of carcinogens such as nitrosamine and even virus-induced carcinogenesis. In humans, genetic hemochromatosis and asbestosis are two major diseases associated with iron-induced carcinogenesis. There is an increasing number of reports of an association between increased body iron stores and increased risk of cancer. Iron-induced oxidative stress results in two possible consequences: (1) redox regulation failure that leads to lipid peroxidation and oxidative DNA and protein damage; (2) redox regulation that activates a variety of reducing and oxystress-protective mechanisms via signal transduction. Both consequences appear to play a role in iron-induced carcinogenesis.

    Oxidative DNA damage is involved in diverse biological phenomena and consists of several kinds of lesions, mainly, strand breaks, base modifications, and DNA-protein crosslinking. However, little is known about the existence of a chemical relationship among them or the ratio by which these different types of lesions are produced. In the present study we investigated whether a relationship exists between DNA strand breakage and base modification. We selected cupric [Cu(II)] and ferric [Fe(III)] ions for this study because these transition metals are active catalysts of DNA damage in vivo. Supercoiled plasmid DNA pZ189 was treated with Cu(II) or Fe(III) in the presence of different reducing agents. We measured in each sample both the number of DNA single-strand breaks (SSB) by quantitative electrophoresis and the amount of a modified DNA base, 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) by HPLC with simultaneous electrochemical (EC) and spectrophotometric detection. The number of DNA SSBs produced was linearly related to the number of 8-OHdG present. The regression of the number of SSBs as a function of the number of 8-OHdG is expressed by the equation [SSBs] = b × [8-OHdG], where b = 1.7, 2.0, 2,7, 1.7, and 9.4, for Cu(II) in the presence of H2O2, L-cysteine and L-ascorbate, and for Fe(III) in the presence of H2O2 and L-ascorbate, respectively. The linear correlation we observed between the production of SSB and 8-OHdG mediated by Fe(III) and by Cu(II) suggests that these products may arise via a common chemical mechanism and could allow an easier and more precise estimation of DNA breakage.

    8-Hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is a mutation-prone (G:C to T:A transverion) DNA base-modified product generated by reactive oxygen species or photodynamic action. G:C to T:A transversions are observed in the p53 and ras genes of UVB-induced skin cancers of mice and in squamous and basal cell carcinomas of human skin exposed to sun-light. In the current study, 8-OHdG formation was evaluated in the epidermis of hairless mice after repeated exposure to UVB, and possible mechanisms involved were studied. Exposure of hairless mice to either 3.4 [2 minimal erythema dose (MED)] or 16.8 (10 MED) kJ/m2 of UVB three times a week for 2 wk induced a 2.5- or 6.1-fold increase, respectively, in the levels of 8-OHdG in DNA, compared to the unexposed controls. An immunohistochemical method using a monoclonal antibody specific for 8-OHdG showed stronger and more extensive staining in the nuclei of UV-irradiated epidermal cells than in those of nonirradiated cells. Western blots probed with antibodies against 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins confirmed the involvement of reactive oxygen species in the epidermal damage induced by chronic UVB exposure. 3-Nitro-L-tyrosine was detected in western blots in a concentration-dependent manner, suggesting that peroxynitrite derived from the reaction of nitric oxide and superoxide, both of which were probably released from inflammatory cells, was involved in modifying the DNA bases. Therefore, the formation of 8-OHdG after UVB exposure appears to be regulated by at least three pathways: photodynamic action, lipid peroxidation, and inflammation and may play a role in sunlight-induced skin carcinogenesis.

    In the present study, we have raised anti-peptide antibodies directed to the major membrane lipid peroxidation product 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) attached covalently to histidine, and their specificities were compared with those of the polyclonal antibodies (anti-HNE-protein antibodies) raised against HNE-treated keyhole limpet hemocyanin (K. Uchidaet al.(1993)Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA90, 8742-8746). The anti-HNE-histidyl peptide antibodies (anti-HNE-histidine antibodies) were prepared by immunizing rabbits with a HNE-conjugated heptapeptide (Gly3-His-Gly3amide) coupled to the carrier protein. The antisera were purified on an affinity gel prepared by covalent attachment of a HNE-conjugated heptapeptide (Ala3-His-Ala3amide). Among the structurally defined 4-hydroxy-2-alkenal-amino acid adducts tested, binding of anti-HNE-histidine antibodies to the HNE-treated protein was not only inhibited by HNE-histidine, HNE-cysteine, and HNE-lysine, but also by 4-hydroxy-2-octenal-histidine and 4-hydroxy-2-decenal-histidine adducts. Cross-reactivity studies revealed that both anti-HNE-protein antibodies had the highest affinity for the HNE-treated protein and that neither of the antibodies cross-reacted with the protein treated with aldehydes including malondialdehyde, 1-hexanal, 2-hexenal, or 2-nonenal. These results suggest that the dominant epitope recognized by antibodies is the 2-CH3(CH2)n-5-hydroxytetrahydrofuran (n≥ 3) moiety of the Michael adducts. The immunohistochemical analysis of atherosclerotic lesions of human aorta demonstrated that these antibodies reacted strongly with granular cytoplasmic elements of foam cells and weakly with elements in the surrounding sclerotic stroma. © 1995 Academic Press.

    An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe‐NTA), induces renal proximal tubular damage, a consequence of iron‐catalyzed free radical reactions, that finally leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in rodents. Previous studies have identified, within 24 h after administration of Fe‐NTA, lipid peroxidation products, aldehyde‐modified proteins and a variety of modified DNA bases such as 8‐hydroxyguanine that may be mutagenic in vivo. In the present study, pathological features of the RCCs were studied, and, in an effort to correlate them with carcinogen‐specific molecular events in Fe‐NTA‐induced carcinogenesis, the H‐, K‐ and N‐ras oncogenes and the p53 tumor suppressor gene were investigated for the presence of mutations. Fe‐NTA‐induced RCCs showed similarity to human RCCs in that they are often invasive, metastatic and fatal. None (0 of 12) of the tumors had mutation in codons 12, 13 and 61 of the H‐, K‐ and N‐ras genes by direct sequencing. Only one (1 of 12) tumor with high grade histology revealed a CGC‐to‐CTC (Arg to Leu) transversion in codon 246 of the p53 gene by the use of single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis and direct sequencing. High expression of mutant p53 protein was confirmed by Western blotting and immunohistochemistry. Study of three peritoneal mesotheliomas induced by Fe‐NTA revealed no mutation in ras and p53 genes. These results suggest that the ras and p53 genes are not the major targets of mutation in Fe‐NTA‐induced carcinogenesis of kidney and mesothelium. Instead, p53 mutation may work for potentiation of malignant character in Fe‐NTA‐induced renal carcinogenesis. Copyright © 1995, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved

None (0 of 12) of the tumors had mutation in codons 12,13 and 61 of the H-, K- and N-ras genes by direct sequencing. Only one (1 of 12) tumor with high grade histology revealed a CGC-to-CTC (Arg to Leu) transversion in codon 246 of the p53 gene by the use of single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) analysis and direct sequencing. High expression of mutant p53 protein was confirmed by Western blotting and immunohistochemistry. Study of three peritoneal mesotheliomas induced by Fe-NTA revealed no mutation in ras and p53 genes. These results suggest that the ras and p53 genes are not the major targets of mutation in Fe-NTA-induced carcinogenesis of kidney and mesothelium. Instead, p53 mutation may work for potentiation of malignant character in Fe-NTA-induced renal carcinogenesis. © 1995.

    Ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe‐NTA) induces renal proximal tubular damage associated with lipid peroxidation and oxidative DNA base modifications that finally leads to a high incidence of renal adenocarcinoma in rodents. In the present study, we report on the in vivo formation of DNA‐protein cross‐links (DPCs) involving thymine and tyrosine in the renal chromatin of Wistar rats treated with single or repeated i.p. administration of Fe‐NTA. Analyses of chromatin samples by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry revealed a significant increase in the amount of 3‐[(1, 3‐dihydro‐2, 4‐dioxopyrimidin‐5‐yl)‐methyl]‐L‐tyrosine (Thy‐Tyr cross‐link) 24 and 48 hr after the administration of Fe‐NTA. At 19th day of Fe‐NTA treatment, the amount of Thy‐Tyr cross‐link decreased to the control level, indicating the presence of cellular repair activity. Thy‐Tyr cross‐link may play a role in the genetic alteration of this renal carcinogenesis model, since mitoses for regeneration of renal proximal tubules were closely associated with the increase in DPCs. © 1995 Wiley‐Liss Inc.

    Recently, DNA of extinct creatures have been brought into analyses. The difficulty in this field of research is DNA degradation. Oxidative damage is considered to be one of the causes of the DNA degradation. We studied how DNA in dried tissue was affected by atmospheric oxygen using freeze-dried rat liver as a model. In tissues exposed to oxygen, DNA degradation occurred within several months and the amount of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine in DNA rapidly increased. The DNA degradation was inhibited by lipid extraction prior to the exposure to atmospheric oxygen. Purified lambda phage DNA was not affected by oxygen. Cellular DNA and RNA were degraded slowly in nitrogen air. These results suggest that both atmospheric and endogenous oxygens play a role in DNA degradation in dried tissues. © 1995 Academic Press, Inc.

    Iron overload with ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) induces acute renal proximal tubular necrosis, a consequence of oxidative tissue damage, that eventually leads to a high incidence of renal adenocarcinoma in rodents. A recent immunohistochemical study has revealed that the materials immunoreactive to the antibody against the aldehyde (4-hydroxy-2-nonenal)-modified proteins are generated in the renal proximal tubules of rats treated with Fe-NTA (S. Toyokuni et al. (1994) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 91, 2616-2620). Here we present further evidences that cytosolic proteins modified with lipid peroxidation-derived aldehydes (4-hydroxy-2-nonenal and malondialdehyde) are indeed accumulated in the kidney of rats treated with Fe-NTA. A single intraperitoneaI Fe-NTA treatment (15 or 30 mg Fe/kg body wt) induced a rapid accumulation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances, a direct consequence of membrane lipid peroxidation, mostly within the cytosolic compartment of rat kidney. The accumulation of lipid peroxidation-derived aldehydes was associated with an apparent accumulation (from 67.9 nmol in untreated controls to 83.3 nmol/mg protein in Fe-NTA-treated rats at 3 h after treatment) and subsequent elimination of aberrant proteins as assessed by a 2, 4-dinitrophenylhydrazine postlabeling assay. Immunoblot analysis with two different polyclonal antibodies against 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified and malondialdehyde-modified proteins detected a temporary accumulation of aldehyde-modified proteins in the cytosol. An immunohistochemical technique with serial sectioning revealed that immunoreactivities of these antibodies were observed in the identical portion of the renal proximal tubules. The implications of these data in relation to the nephrotoxicity of Fe-NTA-are discussed. © 1995 Academic Press. All rights reserved.

    Monoclonal antibodies directed against proteins modified with the major membrane lipid peroxidation product, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, have been established and characterized. The monoclonal antibodies specific for HNE-modified proteins were raised by immunizing mice with a HNE-keyhole limpet hemocyanin conjugate. The resulting five monoclonal antibodies (mAbs HNEJ-1-5) recognized HNE-modified bovine serum albumin (BSA), but not native BSA in Western blot studies. Of the five mAbs, HNEJ-2 exhibited the highest affinity for HNE-modified proteins and a much higher affinity for the HNE-histidine adduct than the HNE-lysine or HNE-cysteine adducts. mAb HNEJ-2 did not cross-react with proteins that had been treated with other aldehydes, such as 1-hexenal, 2-hexenal, 4-hydroxy-2-hexenal, 2-nonenal, formaldehyde, or glutaraldehyde. These results suggest that the major epitope recognized by mAb HNEJ-2 is the Michael addition-type HNE-histidine adduct. © 1995.

    An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), induces renal proximal tubular necrosis that leads to a high incidence of renal adenocarcinoma in rodents. Others have shown that Fe-NTA induces modified DNA base products both in vitro and in vivo. However, Fe-NTA is negative in the Ames Salmonella test with or without S9 activation. The goal of this project was to determine if Fe-NTA is cytotoxic and mutagenic using the L5178Y (TK+/-) mouse lymphoma assay. Our experiments showed a relationship between the concentration of Fe-NTA (0 to 1 mM) and the decrease in relative survival. An exposure-dependent increase in the number of mutations was observed with increasing concentrations of Fe-NTA. At 14% relative survival, there was about a 4-fold increase in mutations (trifluorothymidine resistance) over unexposed, control cells. Ferric nitrate or nitrilotriacetic acid alone induced a relatively tow 1.5- or 1.1-fold increase in mutation, respectively. Our results establish that Fe-NTA is mutagenic in the L5178Y mouse lymphoma assay system. © 1995.

    DNA of cancers such as renal cell carcinoma and mammary invasive ductal carcinoma, is persistently exposed to more oxidative stress than that of adjacent nornal tissue. We suggest that the concept of 'persistent oxidative stress in cancer' may open up a new research area, explaining part of the characteristic tumor biology of cancer such as activated transcription factors and proto-oncogenes, genomic instability, chemotherapy-resistance, invasion and metastasis. © 1995.

    The mechanism of acute nephrotoxicity of an iron chelate in vivo has been investigated. Administration of a renal carcinogen ferric nitrolotriacetate (Fe-NTA) (15 mg Fe/kg body weight, intraperitoneally) led to selective loss of a renal protein with an apparent molecular mass of 17 kDa. Analysis of the 17 kDa protein by NH2-terminal sequence demonstrated its identity over 16 NH2-terminal residues as a kidney fatty acid-binding protein (k-FABP) that is a proteolytically modified form of α2U-globulin, a major urinary protein of adult male rats. An immunochemical study using anti-α2U-globulin polyclonal antibodies confirmed that a single injection of Fe-NTA led to a decrease in k-FABP levels. However, a 19-kDa protein identical to the α2U-globulin progressively appeared in the kidney, suggesting that the proteolytic processing of α2U-globulin in the renal proximal tubules was suppressed by the treatment with Fe-NTA. By monitoring k-FABP and its precursor α2U-globulin, it was determined that repeated exposure to Fe-NTA caused suppression of both proteolytic and endocytotic activity of the kidney. The implications of these data in relation to the nephrotoxicity of Fe-NTA are discussed. © 1995.

    Among the aldehydes that originate from the peroxidation of cellular membrane lipids, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) is thought to be largely responsible for cytopathological effects observed during oxidative stress. Taking advantage of the fact that HNE is very reactive with proteins and forms stable Michael addition-type adducts, a novel immunochemical procedure for quantifying “free” HNE has been developed. The method designated as “HNE-trapping ELISA” is based on the detection of HNE trapped by a protein that has been coated in the immunoplate. The HNE-derived epitopes generated in the coating protein are then detected by the ELISA using a monoclonal antibody (mAbHNEJ-2) specific to the haptenic groups of the HNE-protein conjugates. Using this method, we determined that a considerable amount of HNE was released from human plasma low density lipoproteins (LDL) treated with copper ions or endothelial cells. © 1995 by Academic Press, Inc.

    It has been proposed that plasma low-density lipoprotein (Lall-trans-bRDL) undergoes oxidative modification before it can give rise to foam cells in atherosclerosis. Oxidation of LDL generates a variety of reactive aldehyde products including 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), which may covalently attach to the LDL apolipoproteins. We here present direct evidence that HNE derivatization of LDL forms Michael additiontype adducts of HNE with histidine and lysine residues of apolipoprotein B-100 (apo B) and also demonstrate the utility of an antibody specific to the HNE adducts generated in the LDL treated with HNE or oxidatively modified by Cu2+ or cultured endothelial cells. HNE adducts present in the LDL that had been treated with HNE were attested to be Michael addition-type adducts on the basis of the fact that incubation of LDL with 1 mM HNE (2 h, 37 °C) resulted primarily in the formation of Michael addition-type HNE-histidine (39.9 mol/mol of LDL) and HNE-lysine (19.3 mol/mol of LDL) adducts. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and an SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE)/immunoblot analysis of HNE-modified LDL demonstrated that these HNE adducts were detectable with the HNE-specific antibody affinity-purified with the Michael adduct (HNE-histidine) as a ligand. The following lines of evidence indicated the presence of Michael addition-type HNE adducts in the oxidatively modified LDL in vitro: (i) Amino acid analysis of LDL that had been treated with Cu2+ (24 h, 37 °C) demonstrated the presence of a Michael addition-type HNE-histidine adduct (7-9 mol/mol of LDL). (ii) Competitive ELISA demonstrated the inhibition of antibody binding to HNE-modified LDL by the addition of Cu2+- oxidized LDL. (iii) SDS-PAGE/immunoblot analysis of the Cu2+-oxidized LDL demonstrated the appearance of HNE adducts, which were abolished by the addition of a HNE-modified histidyl peptide. Furthermore, HNE adducts were detected in the LDL that had been treated with cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells (24 h, 37 °C). Taken together, this evidence suggests that the Michael addition-type HNE adducts may be reliable markers for atherosclerosis. © 1994, American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.

    To study the possible involvement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the tumor biology of human renal‐cell carcinoma (RCC), we analvzed 35 cases of RCC for 2 parameters of oxidative damage: 8‐hydroxy‐2′‐deoxyguanosine (8‐OHdG), a mutation‐prone DNA‐ base ‐modified product, was measured by means of high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with an electrochemical (EC) detector, and 4‐hydroxy‐2‐nonenal (HNE)‐modified proteins were measured with a poly‐clonal antibody against HNE‐modified proteins. A 54% higher content of 8‐OHdG was found in RCC than in the corresponding non‐tumorous kidney, suggesting that the DNA of RCC is more exposed to ROS than is the DNA of non‐tumorous kidneys. Immunohistochemistry for HNE‐modified proteins showed a distinct staining pattern of fine to coarse granularity in the cytoplasm of RCC (n = 15), implying that lipid peroxidation products are located in cytoplasmic organelles. These results suggest that RCC constitutionally elaborates more ROS than is produced by the non‐tumorous parts of kidneys. No correlation was found between clinical stage, histology, age or sex and the 2 parameters examined. Copyright © 1994 Wiley‐Liss, Inc., A Wiley Company

    Six-week-old male albino hairless mice (Hos: Hr-1) were exposed to a near-ultraviolet (UV) fluorescent sun lamp (33.5 kJ/m2/hr; wave length > 270 nm with a peak at 312.5 nm) to investigate the induction of oxidative DNA damage in epidermal cells. Significantly higher levels of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) were detected in a dose-dependent manner in epidermis of mice exposed to near-UV than in those of control animals. The ratio of 8-OHdG in near-UV-exposed/unexposed control was 2.08 ± 0.19 after 168 kJ/m2 exposure, P < 0.01; 3.49 ± 0.36 after 335 kJ/m2 exposure, P < 0.01 (means ± SE). The levels of 8-OHdG decreased with time after near-UV exposure, suggesting the presence of removal and/or repair mechanisms. This is the first report that oxidative DNA base modification is induced in vivo in epidermal cells by near-UV exposure. Oxidative DNA base modification may be one of the causes of sunlight-induced skin carcinogenesis. © 1994 Academic Press, Inc.

    Copper is a ubiquitous metal in the environment, it is a component of dental casting gold alloys and dental amalgams, and it is a main component in some intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUDs). Since copper materials implanted in the human body corrode and release ions into the surrounding tissue, the potential toxicity caused by contact of this metal with bodily fluids needs to be evaluated. We implanted male Wistar rats with osmotic mini pumps that continuously administered saline, CuCl2, or a copper chelate, cupric nitrilotriacetate (Cu-NTA), at a rate of 4 mg copper/kg body wt/day. This experimental design maintained serum copper concentrations at a level 30-70% (CuCl2) or 100-120% (Cu-NTA) higher than in untreated controls. At different times postimplantation, we measured the levels of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in DNA of kidney, liver, and tissue surrounding the pump implant, since production of 8-OHdG has been associated with mutagenesis and carcinogenesis. Hepatic and renal levels of 8-OHdG in CuCl2- or Cu-NTA-treated animals were significantly higher than in control animals. In contrast, histopathologic changes in kidneys and livers of rats exposed to CuCl2 and Cu-NTA were limited to mild changes involving hepatic focal necrosis and slightly increased mitotic activity in the renal proximal tubules. These observations suggest that levels of 8-OHdG could be an early marker of copper toxicity. It is unlikely that the high levels of copper at which we observed DNA modification will be encountered after occupational or environmental exposure. A different situation could be found around medical devices that include copper, particularly IUDs, where the amount of copper administered in our experiments could be released in the uterus of women after a few months of continued IUD use. © 1994 Academic Press, Inc.

    Ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe‐NTA) causes renal proximal tubular necrosis, a consequence of iron ion‐mediated free‐radical‐associated damage, that finally leads to a high incidence of renal ad en oca re in dm a in male rats and mice. We have investigated the levels of typical hydroxyl radical‐induced DNA base modifications in renal chromatin of male Wistar rats treated with a single or repeated administrations of Fe‐NTA. Five pyrimidine‐derived and 5 purine‐derived modified DNA bases were identified and quantified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry with selected‐ion monitoring. The modified bases were 5‐hydroxy‐5‐methylhydantoin, 5‐(hydroxymethyl)uracil, 5‐hydroxy‐cytosine, thymine glycol, 5,6‐dihydroxyuraril, 4,6‐diamino‐5‐form‐amidopyrimidine, 8‐hydroxyadenine, xanthine, 2‐hydroxyadenine and 8‐hydroxyguanine. The amounts of most of these compounds were significantly increased over control levels in renal chromatin of Fe‐NTA‐treated rats as measured 3 and 24 hr after treatment. Elevated levels of modified bases were accompanied by proximal tubular necrosis. On the 19th day, however, accumulation of modified DNA bases was not observed. Morphologically, scattered karyomegaiic cells were seen in the proximal tubules, but necrosis was rarely found. Some of the identified DNA base lesions are known to be promutagenic., although others have not been investigated. Presence of modified DNA bases concomitant with necrosis and regeneration of the renal proximal tubules may be a critical step in Fe‐NTA‐induced carcinogenesis. © Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

    An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), induces proximal tubular necrosis, a consequence of lipid peroxidation, that finally leads to a high incidence of renal adenocarcinoma in rodents. Lipid peroxidation as monitored by formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances and free 4- hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) was observed in the kidney homogenates of rats treated with Fe-NTA. Based on the fact that HNE is capable of reacting with cellular proteins, we attempted to detect the localization of HNE-modified proteins in rat kidney tissues with an immunohistochemical procedure. By means of an immunohistochemical technique using polyclonal antibody against the HNE-modified proteins, it was shown that HNE-modified proteins are formed in the target cells of this carcinogenesis model. HNE-modified proteins were detected in the renal proximal tubules 1 hr after i.p. administration of Fe- NTA (15 mg of iron per kg). Intense positivity was found in the cells with degeneration. After 6 hr, the level of HNE-protein conjugates decreased due to the subsequent necrosis. The intensity of the immunochemical reaction with HNE-modified proteins increased in parallel with an increase in the amounts of thiobartituric acid-reactive substances and free HNE that were found. Furthermore, histochemical detection of aldehydes by cold Schiff's reagent demonstrated that location of aldehydes was identical to that of the HNE- modified proteins determined by immunohistochemical procedures. It would thus appear that the production of HNE, a genotoxic and mutagenic aldehyde, and its reaction with proteins may play a role in Fe-NTA-induced renal carcinogenesis.

    Genetic predisposition of SL/Kh mice to spontaneous pre-B lymphomas was investigated in crosses between SL/Kh and NFS/N, another inbred strain of mice lacking endogenous ecotropic provirus and spontaneous lymphoma. (SL/Kh x NFS/N) F! hybrids developed lymphomas similar to those in SL/Kh but at a lower frequency and with a longer latent period. Of 83 backcross mice to NFS/N, 22 developed hemopoietic tumors: 8 were diffuse lymphoblastic lymphomas; 2 were myeloid leukemias arising by 12 months of age; and 12 were follicular center cell lymphomas found later in life. Of 6 endogenous ecotropic proviruses in SL/Kh, 2 were expressed in (SL/Kh x NFS) Fx backcrossed to NFS. One, encoded by a 27-kilobase EcoSl fragment, was closely linked to Gpi-1” on chromosome 7 and its expression seemed to be a prerequisite for the occurrence of all types of hemopoietic tumors. Microsatellite analysis of the backcross generation revealed multiple host genetic factors determining susceptibility to tumors. An allele derived from SL/Kh, mapped in the major histocompatibility locus on chromosome 17, was essential for development of early onset tumors. This locus was designated as Esl-1 (early lymphoma of SL-1). On the other hand, follicular center cell lymphomas developed mostly in the backcross mice homozygous for the NFS/N derived allele at the D4MIT17-linked locus, designated as foc-1 (follicular center cell lymphoma-1), on chromosome 4. © 1994, American Association for Cancer Research.

    SL/Kh mice spontaneously develop pre-B lymphomas with surface phenotypes of B220+, BP-1+, Thy-1-, and surface immunoglobulin negative. The immunoglobulin heavy chain of lymphoma is clonally rearranged but the light chain gene remains in germline configuration. Studying prelymphoma stage SL/Kh bone marrow (BM), we found unusual multiclonal expansion of BP-1+ pre-B cells [34.8 + 5.8% (mean - SD)] by 4 weeks of age, whereas there were far fewer of such cells in most other laboratory strains (8 - 5%). The BP-1+ cells did not express surface immunoglobulin, Thy-1.1, or c-kit. Therefore, they seemed to belong to the pre-B II category. Increased numbers of BP-1+ cells were seen in Fx hybrids between SL/Kh and NFS/N; thus it was apparently a dominant heritable property of SL/Kh mice. Emergence of this population was independent of expression of endogenous ecotropic virus, since they were present in BMs of the Yt hybrid to C4W (Fv-4r) and were not inhibited by neonatal injection of maternal resistance factor. In the radiation chimeras SL/Kh - BALB/c, BP-1+ cells appeared abundantly (29.0 - 3.8%), whereas in the reciprocal chimeras BALB/c - SL/Kh, for fewer (5.5 - 2.3%) appeared. Therefore, expansion of BP-1+ cells in prelymphomatous BM is a property of SL/Kh stem cells rather than BM microenvironments. © 1994, American Association for Cancer Research. All rights reserved.

    The relative risk of primary hepatocellular carcinoma in genetic hemochromatosis (GH) is estimated at over 200 times as that of control populations. Recently, ferric ion chelated to citrate (Fe-citrate) was identified as the major non-transferrin-bound iron in the serum of GH patients. We investigated whether low concentration of Fe-citrate plus reductant could damage supercoiled plasmid DNA under physiological pH and ionic strength. Incubation of Fe-citrate with either H2O2, L-ascorbate, or L-cysteine induced single- and double-strand breaks in supercoiled plasmid pZ189 in a concentration- and time-dependent fashion. DNA strand breaks produced by Fe-citrate plus H2O2 increased at reduced pH (less-than-or-equal-to 6.9). Catalase and free radical scavengers inhibited the DNA breakage produced by Fe-citrate in combination with each reductant, suggesting that H2O2 and finally .OH are responsible DNA damaging species. The catalytic ability of Fe-citrate to induce DNA strand breaks, particularly double-strand breaks (DSBs), may contribute to the carcinogenic processes observed in GH.

    Parenteral administration of ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), a known carcinogen in mouse and rat kidneys, enhances iron-dependent lipid peroxidation (LP) and causes acute renal tubular necrosis. We assume that filtered Fe-NTA in vivo is rapidly reduced by cysteine, a component of glutathione which is hydrolyzed by γ-GTP and dipeptidase, and that this reduced iron initiates lipid peroxidation in the lumen. In addition, the fatty acid composition of phospholipids between the cortex and the medulla may differ, because only the proximal tubules (which are located mainly in the cortex) are known to be vulnerable to LP. We tested these assumptions in the present study. Gas chromatographic determination of fatty acid composition in five male and five female 6-week-old normal ddY mice showed the ratio of polyunsaturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids plus C18:1, a single double-bond fatty acid, to be 0.98 ± 0.08 (av ± SD) in the male cortex and 1.00 ± 0.08 in the female cortex. In the male and female medulla, however, it was 0.78 ± 0.09 (P < 0.05, vs cortex) and 0.68 ± 0.04 (P < 0.01, vs cortex), respectively. Pretreatment of the animals with buthionine sulfoximine, a glutathione synthetase inhibitor, and a procedure that reduces total glutathione content in the kidneys, suppressed LP. Reduced thiobarbituric acid reactive substances were also observed in animals treated with AT-125, a γ-GTP inhibitor, and in animals with immature γ-GTP activity. These results are consistent with our assumptions. © 1993 Academic Press, Inc.

    Fe(III) bound to a chelator, nitrilotriacetate (NTA), has been reported to induce a high frequency of adenocarcinoma localized to the proximal tubules of the kidney in rodents. In order to examine possible mechanisms for the carcinogenic activity, we investigated the in vitro production of single- and double-strand breaks in DNA mediated by iron alone or Fe-NTA chelate using supercoiled plasmid pZ189. Neither Fe(III) nor NTA alone broke DNA. Fe(III) plus NTA together mediated the efficient oxidative production of DNA single-and double-strand breaks in the presence of reducing agents (ascorbate » H2O2 > cysteine). The Fe(III): NTA ratio (1:4) that was found to be optimal for DNA strand breakage was similar to the ratio that produced adenocarcinomas in rodents. Maximal Fe-NTA-mediated DNA damage in vitro was induced under conditions of neutral pH, low ionic strength, presence of reducing agent and absence of albumin. These conditions are present exclusively in the cortical proximal tubules of the kidney, the only location where toxicity and carcinogenicity of Fe-NTA has been observed. Thus, localized DNA damage may explain the anatomic site preferred by Fe-NTA-induced carcinogenesis. © 1993 Oxford University Press.

    The authors present the results of an autopsy of a 67‐year‐old Japanese man with POEMS/Takatsuki/Crow‐Fukase syndrome (P/T/CFS) diagnosed in 1972. Each component of the syndrome was gradually recognized after the resection of lumbar vertebral solitary plasma‐cytoma in 1967. The patient died in 1989 of generalized infection and renal failure. Autopsy revealed in the vertebral canal between the fifth and seventh thoracic vertebrae dorsal pachymeningeal fibrosis, with prominent amyloid deposition that oppressed the spinal cord. This condition was consistent with the final neurologic manifestation of the patient, bilateral motor and sensory disturbance below the sixth thoracic level. Myelopathy remained clinically unnoticed because neurologic disturbance had begun as peripheral polyneuropathy. Normo‐cellular marrow with heterogeneously scattered lambda light chain‐positive plasma cells and degeneration of the myelinated fibers of sciatic nerve also were observed. This is the first report of focal spinal amyloidosis associated with P/T/CFS. Cancer 1992; 70:882–886. Copyright © 1992 American Cancer Society

    Oxidative DNA damage is involved in mutagenesis, carcinogenesis, aging, radiation effects, and the action of several anticancer drugs. Accumulated evidence indicates that iron may play an important role in those processes. We studied the in vitro effect of low concentrations of Fe(II) alone or Fe(III) in the presence of reducing agents on supercoiled plasmid DNA. The assay, based on the relaxation and linearization of supercoiled DNA, is simple yet sensitive and quantitative. Iron mediated the production of single and double strand breaks in supercoiled DNA. Iron chelators, free radical scavengers, and enzymes of the oxygen reduction pathways modulated the DNA damage. Fe(III)-nitrilotriacetate (NTA) plus either H2O2, L-ascorbate, or L-cysteine produced single and double strand breaks as a function of reductant concentration. A combination of 0.1 μM Fe(III)-NTA and 100 μM L-ascorbate induced detectable DNA strand breaks after 30 min at 24°C. Whereas superoxide dismutase was inhibitory only in systems containing H2O2 as reductant, catalase inhibited DNA breakage in all the iron-mediated systems studied. The effect of scavengers and enzymes indicates that H2O2 and .OH are involved in the DNA damaging process. These reactions may account for the toxicity and carcinogenicity associated with iron overload. © 1992.

    Increased lipid peroxide levels both in skin and serum have been reported after cutaneous thermal injury. However, it still remains unclear where lipid peroxides are produced at the site of burned skin. In the present study, a histochemical method using cold Schiff's reagent was applied in order to detect the localization of lipid peroxide. Schiff positivity was detected in sebaceous glands, and the extent of positivity seemed to correlate with the serum lipid peroxide levels. These results may suggest that lipid peroxides produced in sebaceous glands after thermal injury enter the blood stream and are partially responsible for the elevated serum lipid peroxide levels.

    Male mice are much more susceptible than female mice to acute renal proximal tubular necrosis as well as the carcinogenic effect induced by an iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe‐NTA). In the present study, iron‐promoted lipid peroxidation was analyzed histochemically in frozen kidney sections using cold Schiffs reagent and biochemically by measuring thiobarbituric acid‐reactive substance in the kidney. When untreated mouse frozen kidney sections were exposed to ascorbic acid‐Fe‐NTA (0.8 mM, 0.2 mM and 0.4 mM) in vitro for 40 min and washed, diffuse Schiff positivity was obtained along the proximal tubules, and no sex differences were evident. When non‐reduced Fe‐NTA (0.2 mM and 0.4 mM) was layered on untreated kidney sections from males, about half of the cortical proximal tubules showed a positive reaction with Schiffs reagent, whereas in females the proximal tubules of the outer stripe of the outer medulla were positive. In an ex vivo study, 30 to 40 min after i.p. injection of Fe‐NTA (5 mg Fe/kg), Schiff‐positive areas corresponded to those observed in the in vitro non‐reduced Fe‐NTA study in each sex. However, in males, the positive tubular cells gradually became necrotic, whereas in females the positivity disappeared with time and there was no tubular necrosis. Results of the thiobarbituric acid test were correlated with the above findings. In conclusion, the localization and severity of FeNTA induced lipid peroxidation in the tubules differed between the sexes. We suspect that these results reflect functional heterogeneity in the ability of the tubules to reduce iron. Copyright © 1991, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved

    We report a patient with congenital myotonic dystrophy who had progressive edema and hypoproteinemia. An atrioseptal defect and patent ductus arteriosus were noted and were considered to be the cause of the right heart failure and edema. Although urinary protein levels were minimal, infusion of albumin did not improve the hypoproteinemia. Administration of dexamethasone increased the serum protein level, but the edema was not ameliorated. Autopsy revealed a slight lymphatic dilatation in the small intestine, suggesting protein-losing enteropathy. © 1991, All rights reserved.

    A 22‐year‐old man presented with congestive heart failure following flulike symptoms. The diagnosis of acute myocarditis was confirmed by endomyocardial biopsy, which revealed mild infiltration of inflammatory cells. A favorable response to beta‐adrenergic receptor blockade was seen, and the patient was discharged without symptoms. Five months later, however, congestive heart failure recurred, and intracardiac thrombi were demonstrated. The patient died after two months. Postmortem examination revealed left ventricular dilatation with slight interstitial fibrosis; the diagnosis was dilated cardiomyopathy. Thus, progression of biopsy‐proven myocarditis to dilated cardiomyopathy 10 months after the onset of disease was documented. Copyright © 1990 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

    Ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) induces renal proximal tubular necrosis, a consequence of lipid peroxidation, that finally leads to a high incidence of renal adenocarcinoma in rats and mice. Male animals are much more susceptible than female animals to both effects. Moreover, the distribution of the susceptible proximal tubules is different between male and female animals. The present study investigated the effects of castration and sex hormones on Fe-NTA-induced renal lipid peroxidation. Male and female ddY mice were either left untreated, castrated, and/or treated with testosterone or estriol. Histochemical (reactivity to cold SchifTs reagent) and biochemical (thiobarbSturic acid-reactive substance) evaluations were performed 1 h after the i.p. injection of Fe-NTA (5 mg iron/kg). Testosterone treatment and/or oophorectomy increased the Schiff pos-itivity of the renal cortical proximal tubules and the amount of thiobar-bituric acid-reactive substance (testosterone-treated female > intact female, P < 0.005; castrated female > intact female, P < 0.1; castrated and testosterone-treated female >intact female, P < 0.005). In contrast, estriol treatment and/or orchiectomy decreased the Schiff positivity of the renal cortical proximal tubules and the amount of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (estriol-treated male < intact male, P < 0.01; castrated male < intact male, P < 0.01; castrated and estriol-treated male < intact male, P < 0.005). Estradiol treatment produced similar results to estriol treatment (estradiol-treated male <intact male, P < 0.005). Castration and/or administration of the opposite sex hormone reversed the sex difference in the distribution of proximal tubules susceptible to lipid peroxidation. However, the i.v. injection to male mice, 5 min prior to the Fe-NTA treatment, of conjugated estrogen that is promptly excreted via the urine produced no significant effect. Thus, altered metabolic pathways rather than the direct scavenging activity of estrogens seem to be involved in the sex hormone-dependent difference of lipid peroxidation. Genetically determined sex hormone status appears to have influenced the incidence of Fe-NTA-induced renal adenocarcinoma in intact animals. © 1990, American Association for Cancer Research.

    An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe3+-NTA), is nephrotoxic and also carcinogenic to the kidney in experimental animals. Iron-promoted lipid peroxidation in the proximal tubules is thought to be responsible for the pathologic process. In the present study, iron-promoted lipid peroxidation, with thiobarbituric acid (TBA) formation as an indication, in the tubular surface was simulated in vitro using rat kidney brush border membrane vesicles and the results were compared with those using linoleate micelles and rat liver microsomal lipid liposomes. Addition of ascorbate, cysteine, or dithiothreitol to the Fe3+-NTA solution resulted in consumption of dissolved oxygen and promoted the lipid peroxidation in the micelles and in the liposomes. In contrast, addition of glutathione to the Fe3+-NTA solution caused only sluggish oxygen consumption and far less peroxidation in these lipid systems. When the brush border membrane vesicles were used for the peroxidation substrate, Fe3+-NTA and glutathione could promote TBA formation at a rate comparable to that elicited by Fe3+-NTA with cysteine or dithiothreitol. Acivicin, a γ-glutamyl transpeptidase inhibitor, suppressed the peroxidation of the brush border membrane vesicles promoted by Fe3+-NTA and glutathione. These results suggest the following mechanism of proximal tubular cell lipid peroxidation promoted by Fe-NTA: Fe3+-NTA filtered through glomeruli is rapidly reduced by cysteine and Fe2+-NTA starts lipid peroxidation at the site, leading to proximal tubular necrosis. Cysteine is amply supplied by the decomposition of glutathione within the lumen by the action of γ-glutamyl transpeptidase and dipeptidase situated at the proximal tubular brush border membrane. © 1989.

    Iron appears to play a major role in catalysing free radical production, leading to lipid peroxidation and DNA damage. We, therefore, investigated the effect of colloidal iron deposited in the peritoneum. Wistar male rats were given either ferric saccharate, ferric saccharate and nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), NTA or saline. NTA was shown previously to ‘free’ iron to promote lipid peroxidation and an iron chelate of NTA is known to be carcinogenic to the kidney. Iron at a dose of 5 mg kg-1 day-1, and saline at a dose of 0.5 ml day-1 were injected i.p. for 3 months. NTA at a dose of 83.5 mg kg-1 day1 was give i.p for 5 months. All the rats were killed about a year later for histological examination. In nine of the 19 rats treated with ferric saccharate, mesothelial tumors were induced in the serosa of the tunica vaginalis or the length of the spermatic cord. Among rats treated with ferric saccharate and NTA, seven had localised mesotheliomas in the above locations and six had wide-spread peritoneal mesotheliomas. No mesothelial tumors developed in either NTA treated or saline treated rats. No pleural mesotheliomas were found in any group. These findings add to the evidence that iron is involved in some carcinogenic processes. © The Macmillan Press Ltd., 1989.

    A certain iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe3+-NTA) is nephrotoxic and also carcinogenic to the kidney in mice and rats, a distinguishing feature not shared by other iron chelates tested so far. Iron-promoted lipid peroxidation is thought to be responsible for the initial events. We examined its ability to initiate lipid peroxidation in vitro in comparison with that of other ferric chelates. Chelation of Fe2+ by nitrilotriacetate (NTA) enhanced the autoxidation of Fe2+. In the presence of Fe2+-NTA, lipid peroxidation occurred as measured by the formation of conjugated diene in detergent-dispersed linoleate micelles, and by the formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances in the liposomes of rat liver microsomal lipids. Addition of ascorbic acid to Fe3+-NTA solution promoted dose-dependent consumption of dissolved oxygen, which indicates temporary reduction of iron. On reduction, Fe3+-NTA initiated lipid peroxidation both in the linoleate micelles and in the liposomes. Fe3+-NTA also initiated NADPH-dependent lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomes. Although other chelators used (deferoxamine, EDTA, diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid, ADP) enhanced autoxidation, reduction by ascorbic acid, or in vitro lipid peroxidation of linoleate micelles or liposomal lipids, NTA was the sole chelator that enhanced all the reactions. © 1989.

    Nasal T-cell lymphoma associated with double gammopathy (IgG and IgA) was found in a 78-year-old man with a necrotic tumor in his right nasal cavity. He was treated with radiotherapy and CVP chemotherapy but the lymphoma relapsed in his left nasal cavity 1 year later. He was treated again with the same therapy and is now alive and tumor-free. Two serum M-components (IgG and IgA) were detected through his clinical course. To our knowledge, this is the first report of T-cell lymphoma associated with double gammopathy. The significance of M-components in T-cell lymphocytic proliferation remains unclear, but it may be that the M-components appear because of the inappropriate regulation of the T-B immune-response system in the presence of T-cell lymphoma. Histology in this case is also noteworthy. The first nasal tumor showed granulation and necrotic tissue with plasma cell infiltration; it was diagnosed as non-Hodgkin diffuse lymphoma, mixed type, by surface marker analysis. This indicates that immuno-histochemical study is indispensable for the diagnosis of nasal non-healing granuloma with necrosis. © 1989, The Society of Practical Otolaryngology. All rights reserved.

    Rats intraperitoneally injected with a daily dose of cupric nitrilotriacetate (Cu-NTA), which contained 4 to 7 mg of copper/kg body weight, showed submassive liver necrosis, hemolytic anemia, and acute renal tubular necrosis at the beginning of the experiment and intermittently after 4 weeks of injections. All rats that survived over 8 weeks exhibited liver fibrosis with portal-portal, portal-central, and central-central bridging. In all rats that survived over 16 weeks, micronodular cirrhosis of the liver or extensive liver fibrosis was observed. The copper content of the cirrhotic/fibrotic liver was above 250 μg/g dry weight. Electron-microscopic x-ray analysis at day 93 revealed that copper stored in secondary lysosomes was always accompanied by a proportional amount of sulfur (correlation coefficient, 0.98; P < 0.005). An experimental model of copper toxicosis in terms of copper-induced cirrhosis of the liver was established with exogenous copper chelated by nitrilotriacetate.

    記述言語:日本語

    Carcinogenesis follows multi-step processes involving both genetic alteration and increased cell proliferation. Oxidative stress can occur via overproduction of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species through either endogenous or exogenous insults. Oxidative stress is always associated with inflammation, radiation, reperfusion, and iron overload. Epidemiological observations have shown that oxidative stress is one of the major pathologic mechanisms for cancer, the top-ranked cause of human mortality worldwide. During carcinogenesis, the unregulated or prolonged production of cellular oxidants has been linked to mutation through generation of oxidative DNA damage. Furthermore, signal transduction pathways are activated by reactive species, and they lead to the transcription of genes involved in cellular growth regulatory and stress protection pathways. This review examines the involvement of oxidative stress in the carcinogenic process starting from its history, and presents future perspectives.

Nobody had imagined such a high incidence of H. pylori infection in humans, since it was thought that no bacteria could survive such a high pH in the gastric cavity. Almost 20 years have passed since the report of Marshall and Warren in 1984. 1 Now it is clear that there is a category of gastritis associated with H. pylori infection, leading to high incidence of gastric cancer and malignant lymphoma. There was a great impact in the report that removal of the bacteria by antibiotics cures longstanding uncontrollable gastric ulcer. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has defined H. pylori as a Group 1 carcinogen.

    <文献概要>透析は腎細胞癌のリスクであり,嚢胞性変化に伴うものと終末期腎に伴うものがある.慢性腎障害に伴う腎性貧血もよく臨床的な問題となるが,これはエリスロポエチン産生不全に伴い鉄過剰を誘導する鉄代謝の異常があることを意味する.筆者らは1980年代から過剰鉄と腎癌の関係を動物モデルで考究してきた.鉄ニトリロ三酢酸という中性で可溶性かつ触媒性を保有する低分子鉄を雄ラットに投与すると,近位尿細管特異的な酸化ストレスを誘発し,その反復投与によりほぼ全例で転移まで起こす高悪性度腎細胞癌を発症する.高率にp16Ink4aがん抑制遺伝子の不活化が観察されるが,これは発がん自体が鉄依存性を維持しながらフェロトーシス抵抗性を獲得する過程であることを示唆する.

    経済優先の社会が構築され、多くの新規マテリアルが発見・開発されてきた。そのなかにはアスベストのように予想外にがんを引き起こすものもあった。繊維性鉱物がなぜヒトに悪性中皮腫を引き起こすのかは長年の謎であったが、その分子メカニズムが明らかになってきた。長さ・直径などの物理的因子、生体内非分解性に加えてヘモグロビン・ヒストンをはじめとする特異的タンパク質の吸着、さらに中皮細胞の貪食性が重要であることが判明した。過剰鉄環境下でフェロトーシス抵抗性が獲得されたのである。同様の現象は直径が50nmの多層カーボンナノチューブでも報告された。感染症が克服され寿命が延びた今、環境因子の重要性が再認識される。(著者抄録)

    Non-enzymatic peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) results in the formation of various α,β-unsaturated aldehydes, of which 4-hydroxyalkenals are abundant. The propensity of n-6 PUFA, such as linoleic acid, γ-linolenic acid and arachidonic acid, to undergo radical-induced peroxidation and generate 4-hydroxy-2E-nonenal (4-HNE) has been widely demonstrated. The ability of the latter to form covalent adducts with macromolecules and modify cellular functions has been linked to numerous pathological processes. Concomitantly, evidence has accumulated on specific signaling properties of low concentrations of 4-HNE that may induce hormetic and protective responses to peroxidation stress in cells. It has long been known that peroxidation of PUFA, and particularly arachidonic acid, also give rise to 4-hydroxy-2E,6Z-dodecadienal (4-HDDE), which is more chemically reactive than 4-HNE. Few studies on 4-HDDE revealed its ability to avidly interact covalently with electronegative moieties in macromolecules and to its ability to selectively activate the transcriptional regulator Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptor (PPAR)-β/δ. The research on 4-HDDE has been impeded due to the lack of available pure 4-HDDE and antibodies that recognize 4-HDDE-modified epitopes in proteins. The purpose of this study was to employ an established procedure to synthesize 4-HDDE and use it to create and characterize a monoclonal antibody against 4-HDDE-modified proteins and establish its application for ELISA and immunohistochemical analysis of cells and tissues and further expand lipid peroxidation research.

    The aim of the present study was to investigate long-term outcomes of the offspring in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced maternal immune activation (MIA) model and the effect of maternal molecular hydrogen (H2) administration. We have previously demonstrated in the MIA mouse model that maternal administration of H2 attenuates oxidative damage and neuroinflammation, including induced pro-inflammatory cytokines and microglial activation, in the fetal brain. Short-term memory, sociability and social novelty, and sensorimotor gating were evaluated using the Y-maze, three-chamber, and prepulse inhibition (PPI) tests, respectively, at postnatal 3 or 4 weeks. The number of neurons and oligodendrocytes was also analyzed at postnatal 5 weeks by immunohistochemical analysis. Offspring of the LPS-exposed dams showed deficits in short-term memory and social interaction, following neuronal and oligodendrocytic loss in the amygdala and cortex. Maternal H2 administration markedly attenuated these LPS-induced abnormalities. Moreover, we evaluated the effect of H2 on LPS-induced astrocytic activation, both in vivo and in vitro. The number of activated astrocytes with hypertrophic morphology was increased in LPS-exposed offspring, but decreased in the offspring of H2-administered dams. In primary cultured astrocytes, LPS-induced pro-inflammatory cytokines were attenuated by H2 administration. Overall, these findings indicate that maternal H2 administration exerts neuroprotective effects and ameliorates MIA-induced neurodevelopmental deficits of offspring later in life.

    A 62-year-old previously healthy male who was a welder/smoker/drinker was admitted to Kani Tono Hospital for severe hypoxemia (Day 0). Initial physical and radiological examinations suggested an acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. However, respiratory failure developed rapidly, and he died on Day + 4. Aspergillus fumigatus was identified after his death, and he was diagnosed with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis. The clinical and pathological features are precisely described with pathogenetic considerations.

    p16 activation caused by oncogenic mutations may represent oncogene-induced senescence (OIS), a protective mechanism against oncogenic events. However, OIS can contribute to tumor development via tissue remodeling in some tumors. Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD), a rare non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis, is one such tumor. Its clinical and histological features vary, making it difficult to diagnose. Herein, we describe an autopsy of an ECD patient. The patient underwent radiological examinations, including 18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), bone scintigraphy and CT. A biopsy from the lesion with the highest FDG accumulation confirmed the presence of foamy macrophages, a diagnostic clue for ECD. Based on this finding and the clinical features, ECD was diagnosed. However, the patient died from heart dysfunction. After the autopsy, each radiologically different site showed various histological findings regarding the morphology of macrophages, fibrosis, inflammation, and p16 expression. OIS-induced histological progression can cause certain changes observed in radiological images. In addition, in order to evaluate the increase in glucose metabolism, which can affect FDG accumulation, the expression of glucose transporter 1 and hexokinase II was also analyzed. Summarizing the radio-histological correlation can help further both the understanding and diagnosis of ECD.

    P-REX2a is a PTEN inhibitor that also activates Rac 1. No associations with P-REX2a and human endometrial cancers have been reported to date. In this study, we immunohistochemically analyzed 155 uterine endometrial malignancies for P-REX2a expression. The P-REX2a-positive tumors displayed worse prognosis independent of PTEN expression. Then, we transduced either P-REX2a expression vector or short hairpin RNAs targeting P-REX2a into 2 uterine endometrioid carcinoma cell lines, OMC-2 and JHUEM-14. Ectopic expression of P-REX2a led to increased cell proliferation only in the PTEN-expressing OMC-2 cells but did not show any change in the PTEN-negative JHUEM-14 cells or the P-REX2a-knockdown cells. Induction of P-REX2a increased and knockdown of P-REX2a decreased cell migration in both cell lines. Then, we performed expression microarray analysis using these cells, and pathway analysis revealed that the expression of members of the GPCR downstream pathway displayed the most significant changes induced by the knockdown of P-REX2a. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that Vav1, a member of the GPCR downstream pathway, was expressed in 139 of the 155 endometrial tumors, and the expression levels of Vav1 and P-REX2a showed a positive correlation (r = 0.44, p < 0.001). In conclusion, P-REX2a enhanced cell motility via the GPCR downstream pathway independently of PTEN leading to progression of uterine endometrioid malignancies and poor prognosis of the patients.

    Intrauterine inflammation causes preterm birth and is associated with complications in preterm neonates. Thus, strategies aimed at suppressing inflammation are expected to be effective for reducing the risk of preterm birth and associated complications. Our previous studies demonstrated that molecular hydrogen (H2), an anti-inflammatory agent, prevented inflammation-induced impairment in foetal brain and lung tissues in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced rodent models. However, it remains unclear whether H2 is capable of inhibiting preterm labour. The aim of the current study was therefore to investigate the effect of H2 on inflammation-induced preterm labour. Pregnant ICR (CD-1) mice were divided into three groups: Control, LPS and H2 water (HW) + LPS. In the control and LPS groups, vehicle and LPS, respectively, were intraperitoneally injected on embryonic day 15.5. In the HW + LPS group, HW was administered 24 h prior to LPS injection. The time from LPS administration to parturition was compared between the LPS and HW + LPS groups. Maternal uterus was collected 6 h after LPS injection and the transcript levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, contractile-associated proteins (CAPs), matrix metalloproteinase-3 (Mmp3) and endothelin-1 (Et1) were assessed by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The protein levels of cyclooxygenase-2 (Cox2) were also evaluated by immunohistochemistry. The time from LPS administration to parturition in the HW + LPS group was significantly increased compared with that in the LPS group (33.5±3.4 vs. 18.3±8.8 h, respectively, P=0.020). H2 administration also resulted in significantly higher progesterone levels compared with LPS treatment alone (P=0.002). The transcript levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, CAPs, Mmp3 and Et1 in the uteri of the LPS group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P&lt
    0.05). In turn, all these levels with the exception of interleukin-8 and Mmp3 were significantly lower in the HW + LPS group compared with those in the LPS group (all P&lt
    0.05). The protein levels of Cox2 in the LPS group were also significantly increased compared with those in the control (P&lt
    0.001) and HW + LPS (P=0.003) groups. These results suggest that inflammation-induced changes in the uterus may be ameliorated through maternal H2 administration. Preventive H2 administration may therefore represent an effective strategy for the suppression of inflammation during preterm labour.

    Malignant mesothelioma is an aggressive neoplasm with no particularly effective treatments. We previously reported that overexpression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/CCN2) promotes mesothelioma growth, thus suggesting it as a novel molecular target. A human monoclonal antibody that antagonizes CTGF (FG-3019, pamrevlumab) attenuates malignant properties of different kinds of human cancers and is currently under clinical trial for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. This study reports the effects of FG-3019 on human mesothelioma in vitro and in vivo. We analyzed the effects of FG-3019 on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration/invasion, adhesion and anchorage-independent growth in three human mesothelioma cell lines, among which ACC-MESO-4 was most efficiently blocked with FG-3019 and was chosen for in vivo experiments. We also evaluated the coexistent effects of fibroblasts on mesothelioma in vitro, which are also known to produce CTGF in various pathologic situations. Coexistent fibroblasts in transwell systems remarkably promoted the proliferation and migration/invasion of mesothelioma cells. In orthotopic nude mice model, FG-3019 significantly inhibited mesothelioma growth. Histological analyses revealed that FG-3019 not only inhibited the proliferation but also induced apoptosis in both mesothelioma cells and fibroblasts. Our data suggest that FG-3019 antibody therapy could be a novel additional choice for the treatment of mesothelioma.

    Aims: Ossification is found occasionally in dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS). The aims of this study were to elucidate whether the formed bone tissue is usually produced by tumour cells or by reactive non-neoplastic cells, and to reveal the clinicopathological characteristics of DDLPS with ossification. Methods and results: We examined 36 cases of ossified DDLPS by comparing them to 31 cases of non-ossified DDLPS. MDM2 amplification was confirmed in osteocytes and/or osteoblastic cells in all but one ossified DDLPS cases (27 of 28) using fluorescence in-situ hybridisation, although the morphological impression of ossification appeared to be mainly metaplastic (27 of 36) or high-grade osteosarcoma-like (six of 36). The bone tissue was often formed predominantly at the periphery of the DDLPS area near the well-differentiated liposarcoma component (18 of 36), and an organised structure such as bone marrow-like differentiation was not uncommon (12 of 36). According to a modified French Fédération Nationale des Centers de Lutte Contre le Cancer (FNCLCC) grading system, ossified DDLPS tended to be lower grade than non-ossified DDLPS (mean grade: 1.88 and 2.15, respectively). Ossification in DDLPS was associated significantly with shorter local recurrence-free survival by multivariate analysis (P = 0.02347), but metaplastic-appearing ossification tended to be associated with longer overall survival (P = 0.1400). Conclusions: The bone tissue formed in DDLPS was mainly neoplastic regardless of its morphology and maturity, which highlighted the osteogenic differentiation of the tumour cells. DDLPS patients with osteogenic differentiation tended to suffer from earlier local recurrences, which did not necessarily lead to poor life outcomes.

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a rare but socially important neoplasm due to its association with asbestos exposure. Malignant mesothelioma is difficult to diagnose at an early stage, yet there are no particularly effective treatments available at the advanced stage, thus necessitating efficient strategies to prevent MM in individuals already exposed to asbestos. We previously showed that persistent oxidative damage caused by foreign body reaction and affinity of asbestos both to hemoglobin and histones is one of the major pathogeneses. Accordingly, as an effective strategy to prevent asbestos-induced MM, we undertook the use of an iron chelator, deferasirox, which decreased the epithelial–mesenchymal transition in a crocidolite-induced rat MM model. However, this agent may show adverse effects. Here, we studied the effects of iron removal by phlebotomy as a realistic measure on the same rat model. We injected a total of 5 mg crocidolite i.p. to F1 hybrid rats between the Fischer-344 and Brown-Norway strains at the age of 6 weeks. We repeated weekly or biweekly phlebotomy of 6-8 mL/kg/time from 10 to 60 weeks of age. The animals were observed until 120 weeks. In male rats, phlebotomy significantly decreased the weight and nuclear grade of MM, and modestly reduced the associated ascites and the fraction of more malignant sarcomatoid subtype. Weekly phlebotomy prolonged long-term survival. Our results indicate that appropriate phlebotomy may be a practical preventive measure to attenuate the initiation and promotion capacity of asbestos towards MM by reducing iron in individuals exposed to asbestos.

    Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is a life-threatening neonatal disease that leads to lung hypoplasia and pulmonary hypertension. We recently found that maternal prenatal administration of Saireito (TJ-114) ameliorates fetal CDH in a nitrofen-induced rat model. Here, we studied the role of iron and oxidative stress in neonates of this model and in lung fibroblasts IMR90-SV in association with nitrofen and Saireito. We observed increased immunostaining of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine in the lungs of neonates with CDH, which was ameliorated by maternal Saireito intake. Pulmonary transferrin receptor expression was significantly decreased in both CDH and CDH after Saireito in comparison to normal controls, indicating functional lung immaturity, whereas catalytic Fe(II) and pulmonary DMT1/ferroportin expression remained constant among the three groups. Saireito revealed a dose-dependent scavenging capacity with electron spin resonance spin trapping in vitro against hydroxyl radicals but not against superoxide. Finally, nitrofen revealed dose-dependent cytotoxicity to IMR90-SV cells, accompanied by an increase in oxidative stress, as seen by 5(6)-chloromethyl-2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate and catalytic Fe(II). Saireito ameliorated all of these in IMR90-SV cells. In conclusion, catalytic Fe(II)-dependent oxidative stress by nitrofen may be the pathogenic cause of CDH, and the antioxidative activity of Saireito is at least partially responsible for improving nitrofen-induced CDH.

    Oxidative stress including iron excess has been associated with carcinogenesis. The level of 8-oxoguanine, a major oxidatively modified base in DNA, is maintained very low by three distinct enzymes, encoded by OGG1, MUTYH and MTH1. Germline biallelic inactivation of MUTYH represents a familial cancer syndrome called MUTYH-associated polyposis. Here, we used Mutyh-deficient mice to evaluate renal carcinogenesis induced by ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA). Although the C57BL/6 background is cancer-resistant, a repeated intraperitoneal administration of Fe-NTA induced a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC; 26.7%) in Mutyh-deficient mice in comparison to wild-type mice (7.1%). Fe-NTA treatment also induced renal malignant lymphoma, which did not occur without the Fe-NTA treatment in both the genotypes. Renal tumor-free survival after Fe-NTA treatment was marginally different (P=0.157) between the two genotypes. Array-based comparative genome hybridization analyses revealed, in RCC, the loss of heterozygosity in chromosomes 4 and 12 without p16(INKA) inactivation; these results were confirmed by a methylation analysis and showed no significant difference between the genotypes. Lymphomas showed a preference for genomic amplifications. Dlk1 inactivation by promoter methylation may be involved in carcinogenesis in both tumors. Fe-NTA-induced murine RCCs revealed significantly less genomic aberrations than those in rats, demonstrating a marked species difference.

    Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death characterized by the iron-dependent accumulation of lipid hydroperoxides to lethal levels. Emerging evidence suggests that ferroptosis represents an ancient vulnerability caused by the incorporation of polyunsaturated fatty acids into cellular membranes, and cells have developed complex systems that exploit and defend against this vulnerability in different contexts. The sensitivity to ferroptosis is tightly linked to numerous biological processes, including amino acid, iron, and polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism, and the biosynthesis of glutathione, phospholipids, NADPH, and coenzyme Q(10). Ferroptosis has been implicated in the pathological cell death associated with degenerative diseases (i.e., Alzheimer's, Huntington's, and Parkinson's diseases), carcinogenesis, stroke, intracerebral hemorrhage, traumatic brain injury, ischemia-reperfusion injury, and kidney degeneration in mammals and is also implicated in heat stress in plants. Ferroptosis may also have a tumor-suppressor function that could be harnessed for cancer therapy. This Primer reviews the mechanisms underlying ferroptosis, highlights connections to other areas of biology and medicine, and recommends tools and guidelines for studying this emerging form of regulated cell death.

    Mammals incorporate a major proportion of absorbed iron as heme, which is catabolized by the heme oxygenase 1 (HO1)-NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) complex into biliverdin, carbon monoxide, and ferrous iron. Moreover, intestinal iron is incorporated as ferrous iron, which is transported via the iron importer, divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1). Recently, we demonstrated that the iron chaperone poly(rC)-binding protein 2 (PCBP2) can directly receive ferrous iron from DMT1 or transfer iron to the iron exporter, ferroportin 1. To promote intracellular iron flux, an iron chaperone may be essential for receiving iron generated by heme catabolism, but this hypothesis is untested so far. Herein, we demonstrate that HO1 binds to PCBP2, but not to other PCBP family members, namely PCBP1, PCBP3, or PCBP4. Interestingly, HO1 formed a complex with either CPR or PCBP2, and it was demonstrated that PCBP2 competes with CPR for HO1 binding. Using PCBP2-deletion mutants, we demonstrated that the PCBP2 K homology 3 domain is important for the HO1/PCBP2 interaction. In heme-loaded cells, heme prompted HO1-CPR complex formation and decreased the HO1/PCBP2 interaction. Furthermore, in vitro reconstitution experiments with purified recombinant proteins indicated that HO1 could bind to PCBP2 in the presence of heme, whereas loading of PCBP2 with ferrous iron caused PCBP2 to lose its affinity for HO1. These results indicate that ferrous iron released from heme can be bound by PCBP2 and suggest a model for an integrated heme catabolism and iron transport metabolon.

    Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma has been proposed as a new therapeutic tool for cancer treatment. Recently, plasma-activated medium (PAM) has been widely studied in various cancer types. However, there are only few reports demonstrating the anti-tumour effects of PAM in an animal model reflecting pathological conditions and the accompanying mechanism. Here we investigated the inhibitory effect of PAM on the metastasis of ovarian cancer ES2 cells in vitro and in vivo. We demonstrated that ES2 cell migration, invasion and adhesion were suppressed by PAM at a certain PAM dilution ratio, whereas cell viability remained unaffected. In an in vivo mouse model of intraperitoneal metastasis, PAM inhibited peritoneal dissemination of ES2 cells, resulting in prolonged survival. Moreover, we assessed the molecular mechanism and found that MMP-9 was decreased by PAM. On further investigation, we also found that PAM prevented the activation of the MAPK pathway by inhibiting the phosphorylation of JNK1/2 and p38 MAPK. These findings indicate that PAM inhibits the metastasis of ovarian cancer cells through reduction of MMP-9 secretion, which is critical for cancer cell motility. Our findings suggest that PAM intraperitoneal therapy may be a promising treatment option for ovarian cancer.

    Epidemiological data indicate a constant worldwide increase in cancer mortality, although the age of onset is increasing. Recent accumulation of genomic data on human cancer via next-generation sequencing confirmed that cancer is a disease of genome alteration. In many cancers, the Nrf2 transcription system is activated via mutations either in Nrf2 or Keap1 ubiquitin ligase, leading to persistent activation of the genes with antioxidative functions. Furthermore, deep sequencing of passenger mutations is clarifying responsible cancer causative agent (s) in each case, including aging, APOBEC activation, smoking and UV. Therefore, it is most likely that oxidative stress is the principal initiating factor in carcinogenesis, with the involvement of two essential molecules for life, iron and oxygen. There is evidence based on epidemiological and animal studies that excess iron is a major risk for carcinogenesis, suggesting the importance of ferroptosis-resistance. Microscopic visualization of catalytic Fe (II) has recently become available. Although catalytic Fe(II) is largely present in lysosomes, proliferating cells harbor catalytic Fe(II) also in the cytosol and mitochondria. Oxidative stress catalyzed by Fe(II) is counteracted by thiol systems at different functional levels. Nitric oxide, carbon monoxide and hydrogen (per) sulfide modulate these reactions. Mitochondria generate not only energy but also heme/iron sulfur cluster cofactors and remain mostly dysfunctional in cancer cells, leading to Warburg effects. Cancer cells are under persistent oxidative stress with a delicate balance between catalytic iron and thiols, thereby escaping ferroptosis. Thus, high-dose L-ascorbate and non-thermal plasma as well as glucose/glutamine deprivation may provide additional benefits as cancer therapies over preexisting therapeutics.

    Non-thermal plasma (NTP) is a potential new therapeutic modality for cancer. However, its mechanism of action remains unclear. Herein, we studied the effect of NTP on mesothelioma cells and fibroblasts to understand its anti-proliferative efficacy. Interestingly, NTP demonstrated greater selective anti-proliferative activity against mesothelioma cells relative to fibroblasts than cisplatin, which is used for mesothelioma treatment. The anti-proliferative effect of NTP was enhanced by pre-incubation with the cellular iron donor, ferric ammonium citrate (FAC), and inhibited by iron chelation using desferrioxamine (DFO). Three oxidative stress probes (CM-H2DCFDA, MitoSOX and C11-BODIPY) demonstrated reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation by NTP, which was inhibited by DFO. Moreover, NTP decreased transferrin receptor-1 and increased ferritin-H and -L chain expression that was correlated with decreased iron-regulatory protein expression and RNA-binding activity. This regulation was potentially due to increased intracellular iron in lysosomes, which was demonstrated via the Fe (II)-selective probe, HMRhoNox-M, and was consistent with autophagic-induction. Immunofluorescence using LysoTracker and Pepstatin A probes demonstrated increased cellular lysosome content, which was confirmed by elevated LAMP1 expression. The enhanced lysosomal biogenesis after NTP could be due to the observed increase in fluid-phase endocytosis and early endosome formation. These results suggest NTP acts as a stressor, which results in increased endocytosis, lysosome content and autophagy. In fact, NTP rapidly increased autophagosome formation, as judged by increased LC3B-II expression, which co-localized with LAMP1, indicating autophagolysosome formation. Autophagic-induction by NTP was confirmed using electron microscopy. In summary, NTP acts as a cellular stressor to rapidly induce fluid-phase endocytosis, lysosome biogenesis and autophagy.

    Daily intake of vegetables can reduce the risk of cancer and lifestyle-related diseases. However, supplementary intake of 13 carotene alone has been reported to increase the risk of lung cancer in male cigarette smokers and people who were exposed to asbestos. The mechanism of the antioxidative properties of carotenoids in vivo, especially under oxidative stress conditions, still remains unclear. To investigate the antioxidant properties of dietary compounds, we examined the effects of chemically modified astaxanthin (Ax-C-8) using a rat model of ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)-induced renal oxidative injury. Ax-C-8 demonstrated lethally toxic effects on the rats in a dose-dependent manner. Following supplementation with Ax-C-8 (0.02%, w/w) for 30 days, the rats were euthanized 1, 4 and 24 h after injection of Fe-NTA. After 4 h, Ax-C-8 pretreatment suppressed the elevation of creatinine and blood urea nitrogen and protected the rats from renal tubular necrosis and the formation of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins. After 24 h, pretreatment with Ax-C-8 maintained the renal antioxidant enzyme levels and renal tubules. Here, we demonstrate the antioxidant effects of Ax-C-8 against Fe-NTA-induced oxidative injury in rats receiving a regular diet. These data suggest that dietary intake of astaxanthin may be useful for the prevention of renal tubular oxidative damage.

    Estradiol (E2) and the oestrogen receptor-alpha (ER alpha) signalling pathway play pivotal roles in the proliferative activity of breast cancer cells. Recent findings show that the brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange protein 3-prohibitin 2 (BIG3-PHB2) complex plays a crucial role in E2/ER alpha signalling modulation in breast cancer cells. Moreover, specific inhibition of the BIG3-PHB2 interaction using the ERa activity-regulator synthetic peptide (ERAP: 165-177 amino acids), derived from a-helical BIG3 sequence, resulted in a significant anti-tumour effect. However, the duration of this effect was very short for viable clinical application. We developed the chemically modified ERAP using stapling methods (stapledERAP) to improve the duration of its antitumour effects. The stapledERAP specifically inhibited the BIG3-PHB2 interaction and exhibited long-lasting suppressive activity. Its intracellular localization without the membrane-permeable polyarginine sequence was possible via the formation of a stable a-helix structure by stapling. Tumour bearing-mice treated daily or weekly with stapledERAP effectively prevented the BIG3-PHB2 interaction, leading to complete regression of E2-dependent tumours in vivo. Most importantly, combination of stapledERAP with tamoxifen, fulvestrant, and everolimus caused synergistic inhibitory effects on growth of breast cancer cells. Our findings suggested that the stapled ERAP may be a promising anti-tumour drug to suppress luminal-type breast cancer growth.

    The significance of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) activity in the maintenance of cancer stem cells (CSCs) remains controversial. Previous findings showed that mTORC1 activation depleted the population of leukemia stem cells in leukemia, while maintaining the stemness in pancreatic CSCs. The purpose of this study was to examine the currently unknown role and significance of mTORC1 activity in brain tumor stem cells (BTSCs).
    Basal mTORC1 activity and its kinetics were investigated in BTSC clones isolated from patients with glioblastoma and their differentiated progenies (DIFFs). The effects of nutrient deprivation and the mTORC1 inhibitors on cell proliferation were compared between the BTSCs and DIFFs. Tissue sections from patients with brain gliomas were examined for expression of BTSC markers and mTORC1 activity by immunohistochemistry.
    BTSCs presented lower basal mTORC1 activity under each culture condition tested and a more rapid decline of mTORC1 activity after nutrient deprivation than observed in DIFFs. The self-renewal capacity of BTSCs was unaffected by mTORC1 inhibition, whereas it effectively suppressed DIFF proliferation. In agreement, immunohistochemical staining of glioma tissues revealed low mTORC1 activity in tumor cells positive for BTSC markers. In in vitro culture, BTSCs exhibited resistance to the antitumor agent temozolomide.
    Our findings indicated the importance of low mTORC1 activity in maintaining the undifferentiated state of BTSCs, implicating the relevance of manipulating mTORC1 activity when developing future strategies that target BTSCs.

    Extraskeletal osteosarcoma (ESOS) is an uncommon malignant neoplasm. Most ESOSs are high grade, although some low-grade cases have been reported. A few cases of ESOS with MDM2 amplification have also been reported, suggesting some similarity to skeletal low-grade osteosarcoma such as parosteal osteosarcoma, where MDM2 is often amplified. However, the frequency of low-grade cases and cases with MDM2 amplification among ESOSs remains unknown, and their relationship is unclear. To clarify this, we examined 18 primary ESOS cases clinically, pathologically, and genetically, focusing on their MDM2 amplification status. Our cases comprised 10 men and 8 women whose mean age was 58.6 years
    the most common site of the lesion was the thigh and buttock. There were one histologically low-grade case evaluated by biopsy specimen with an aggressive course and 2 relatively low-grade cases whose lesions were of low grade for the most part. MDM2 amplification status was revealed by fluorescence in situ hybridization in all 18 cases
    2 patients—histologically intermediate- and high-grade cases—were found to have MDM2 amplification. In conclusion, this study indicates that histologically low-grade and relatively low-grade cases of ESOS are not always associated with MDM2 amplification. The ESOS case with MDM2 amplification could be high grade, although MDM2-amplified dedifferentiated liposarcoma with osteogenic differentiation should be ruled out in making the diagnosis.

    CD44 exists as a standard (CD44s) isoform and different variant isoforms (CD44v) due to alternative splicing. While the complex nature of these different isoforms has not been fully elucidated, CD44v expression has been shown to exert oncogenic effects by promoting tumor progression, metastasis and resistance of tumor cells to chemotherapy. One of the CD44v isoforms, CD44v8-10, was recently shown to protect cancer cells from oxidative stress by increasing the synthesis of glutathione (GSH). However, data regarding CD44 isoform expression in malignant mesothelioma (MM) are still lacking. Here, we show that most of the MM cell lines express both the CD44s and CD44v isoforms, in contrast to non-tumorigenic mesothelial cells, which express only CD44s. Moreover, we show here that these MM cell lines are positive for CD44 variable axon 9, with CD44v8-10 among the variant isoforms expressed. The expression of CD44 variable axon 9 was found to be statistically associated with NF2 inactivation, a common occurrence in MM. Knockdown of CD44 reduced the protein level of xCT, a cystine transporter, and increased oxidative stress. However, an increase in GSH was also observed and was associated with enhanced chemoresistance in CD44-knockdown cells. Increased GSH was mediated by the Nrf2/AP-1-induced upregulation of GCLC, a subunit of the enzyme catalyzing GSH synthesis. Our results thus suggest that the response to CD44 depletion is cell type-dependent and, in cases such as MM cells, compensatory pathway(s) might be activated rheostatically to account for the loss of CD44 and counteract enhanced oxidative stress.

    Xanthohumol (XN), a simple prenylated chalcone, can be isolated from hops and has the potential to be a cancer chemopreventive agent against several human tumor cell lines. We previously identified valosin-containing protein (VCP) as a target of XN; VCP can also play crucial roles in cancer progression and prognosis. Therefore, we investigated the molecular mechanisms governing the contribution of VCP to the antitumor activity of XN. Several human tumor cell lines were treated with XN to investigate which human tumor cell lines are sensitive to XN. Several cell lines exhibited high sensitivity to XN both in vitro and in vivo. shRNA screening and bioinformatics analysis identified that the inhibition of the adenylate cyclase (AC) pathway synergistically facilitated apoptosis induced by VCP inhibition. These results suggest that there is crosstalk between the AC pathway and VCP function, and targeting both VCP and the AC pathway is a potential chemotherapeutic strategy for a subset of tumor cells.

    The therapeutic effects of non-thermal plasma are expected in the medical fields, including hemostasis, vascularization, prevention of organ adhesion, and cell proliferation. Cancer is an internal enemy arising from normal tissue in the body. The prognosis of metastatic and recurrent cancers is still poor despite advances in medicine. To apply non-thermal plasma in cancer treatment is now on going. The mechanism of the proliferation-inhibitory effect of plasma is reactive nitrogen oxide species/reactive oxygen species production in cells. There are a number of problems to be overcome, such as existence of intrinsic reactive oxygen species/reactive nitrogen species scavengers and the shallow infiltration of plasma on tumor surface. The current reviews makes referral to the study results of plasma therapy clarified so far, the possibility of its application in the future.

    Endometriosis is observed in approximate to 10% of reproductive age women. Ovarian endometriosis not only causes dysmenorrhea but also causes infertility and a high risk of adenocarcinoma. Due to its scattered nature, complete surgical resection is difficult. Endometriosis consists of glandular and stromal cells. Previously, we showed that endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) play a role in the protection against pathologic events caused by monthly repeated hemorrhage. Here, we undertook a preclinical study of non-thermal plasma (NTP) as a surgical treatment of endometriosis. Epithelial cells were most sensitive to NTP-activated medium in vitro, whereas ectopic ESCs were most resistant. We then transplanted excised uteruses into BALB/c mice from donors of the same strain with estradiol supplementation. Four weeks after the transplantation, we exposed NTP to each endometriotic lesion after laparotomy. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that immediately after NTP exposure, epithelial cells exhibited significantly higher levels of nuclear immunostaining for 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine than did stromal cells. Four weeks after NTP exposure, the total surface area consisting of endometriotic cysts was significantly smaller with less epithelial proliferative activity than the helium-exposed control, whereas the number of endometriotic lesions had not changed. Therefore, NTP exposure may be useful to prevent the progression and recurrence of endometriosis.

    Neurotoxicity of 1-bromopropane (1-BP) has been reported in both human cases and animal studies. To date, neurotoxicity of 1-BP has been induced in rats but not in mice due to the lethal hepatotoxicity of 1-BP. Oxidization by cytochromes P450 and conjugation with glutathione (GSH) are two critical metabolism pathways of 1-BP and play important roles in toxicity of 1-BP. The aim of the present study was to establish a murine model of 1-BP neurotoxicity, by reducing the hepatotoxicity of 1-BP with 1-aminobenzotriazole (1-ABT); a commonly used nonspecific P450s inhibitor. The results showed that subcutaneous or intraperitoneal injection of 1-ABT at 50mg/kg body weight BID (100mg/kg BW/day) for 3days, inhibited about 92-96% of hepatic microsomal CYP2E1 activity, but only inhibited about 62-64% of CYP2E1 activity in brain microsomes. Mice treated with 1-ABT survived even after exposure to 1200ppm 1-BP for 4 weeks and histopathological studies showed that treatment with 1-ABT protected mice from 1-BP-induced hepatic necrosis, hepatocyte degeneration, and hemorrhage. After 4-week exposure to 1-BP, the brain weight of 1-ABT(+)/1200ppm 1-BP group was decreased significantly. In 1-ABT-treated groups, expression of hippocampal Ran protein and cerebral cortical GRP78 was dose-dependently increased by exposure to 1-BP. We conclude that the control of hepatic P450 activity allows the observation of effects of 1-BP on the murine brain at a higher concentration by reduction of hepatotoxicity. The study suggests that further experiments with liver-specific control of P450 activity using gene technology might provide better murine models for 1-bromopropane-induced neurotoxicity.

    Non-thermal plasma (NTP) is a recently developed technology that elicits a variety of biological effects. This includes cancer cell-specific cytotoxicity, which is mainly attributed to the regional generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). We studied the effects of NTP on malignant mesothelioma (MM) and its modulation by L-ascorbate. L-ascorbate is a major water-soluble anti-oxidant in vivo, but its pro-oxidant activity in vitro has been well recognized. Thus, the effects of ascorbate on the efficacy of NTP is important to examine. NTP exposure dose-dependently killed MM cells, whereas MM cells tolerated 1 mM L-ascorbate. However, brief pre-treatment with a pharmacological dose (250-750 mu M) of L-ascorbate immediately prior to NTP exposure significantly increased its cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner, which was inhibited by the iron chelator, deferoxamine. However, paradoxically, this potentiating effect of L-ascorbate was completely abolished by a prolonged 4 h pre-incubation with L-ascorbate (500 mu M). MM cytotoxicity induced by NTP was associated with immediate oxidative stress evaluated by 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorecein diacetate, which was followed by an increase in the expression of the autophagosome marker, LC3B-II. In conclusion, MM can be a target for NTP treatment and L-ascorbate can increase or decrease its efficacy depending on the length of the pre-incubation period. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc.

    Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) can induce lung hypoplasia and pulmonary hypertension and is associated with high mortality. The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and safety of antenatal Saireito (TJ-114), a traditional Japanese herbal medicine, in a rat CDH model. Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to an herbicide (nitrofen, 100 mg) on embryonic day 9 (E9) to induce CDH, and antenatal Saireito (2000 mg/kg/day) was orally administered from E10 to E20. On E21, fetuses were delivered. Antenatal Saireito significantly decreased the incidence of CDH (p &lt; 0.01), increased lung volume (p &lt; 0.01), improved alveolarization and pulmonary artery remodeling using histological analysis, and improved respiratory function using gasometric analysis (pH; p &lt; 0.05, and PCO2; p &lt; 0.01). In addition, antenatal Saireito significantly decreased endothelin-1 and endothelin receptor A expression in the pulmonary arteries. Taken together, our results demonstrated that antenatal Saireito can improve fetal pulmonary hypoplasia and pulmonary vascular remodeling and, as a result, can improve respiratory function in a rat CDH model.

    Iron is an essential nutrient for every type of life on earth. However, excess iron is cytotoxic and can lead to an increased cancer risk in humans. Catalytic ferrous iron [Fe(II)] is an initiator of the Fenton reaction, which causes oxidative stress by generating hydroxyl radicals. Recently, it became possible to localize catalytic Fe(II) in situ with a turn-on fluorescent probe, RhoNox-1. Here, we screened each organ/cell of rats to globally evaluate the distribution of catalytic Fe(II) and found that eosinophils showed the highest abundance. In various cells, lysosomes were the major organelle, sharing 40-80% of RhoNox-1 fluorescence. We then used an ovalbumin-induced allergic peritonitis model to study the dynamics of catalytic Fe(II). Peritoneal lavage revealed that the total iron contents per cell were significantly decreased, whereas an increase in the number of inflammatory cells (macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils and lymphocytes) resulted in an increased total iron content of the peritoneal inflammatory cells. Notably, macrophages, eosinophils and neutrophils exhibited significantly increased catalytic Fe(II) with increased DMT1 expression and decreased ferritin expression, though catalytic Fe(II) was significantly decreased in the peritoneal lavage fluid. In conclusion, catalytic Fe(II) in situ more directly reflects cellular activity and the accompanying pathology than total iron does. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Non-thermal atmospheric pressure plasma has been widely studied in recent years in many fields, including cancer treatment. However, its efficiency for inducing apoptosis sometimes varies depending on the cell species and experimental conditions. The aim of this study was to elucidate what causes these differences in responses to plasma treatment. Using four ovarian cancer cell lines, the cell density had a markedly negative impact on the proliferation inhibition rate (PIR) and it was more obvious in OVCAR-3 and NOS2 cells. Furthermore, TOV21G and ES-2 cells were drastically sensitive to plasma-activated medium (PAM) compared with the other two cell lines. We demonstrated that the proportion of reactive oxygen species and cell number had a marked impact on the effect of PAM against ovarian cancer cells. Additionally it was suggested that the morphological features of cells were also closely related to the sensitivity of cancer cells to the plasma treatment.

    Essential metals, such as iron and copper, play a critical role in a plethora of cellular processes including cell growth and proliferation. However, concomitantly, excess of these metal ions in the body can have deleterious effects due to their ability to generate cytotoxic reactive oxygen species (ROS). Thus, the human body has evolved a very well orchestrated metabolic system that keeps tight control on the levels of these metal ions. Considering their very high proliferation rate, cancer cells require a high abundance of these metals compared to their normal counterparts. Interestingly, new anti-cancer agents that take advantage of the sensitivity of cancer cells to metal sequestration and their susceptibility to ROS have been developed. These ligands can avidly bind metal ions to form redox active metal complexes, which lead to generation of cytotoxic ROS. Furthermore, these agents also act as potent metastasis suppressors due to their ability to up-regulate the metastasis suppressor gene, N-myc downstream regulated gene 1. This review discusses the importance of iron and copper in the metabolism and progression of cancer, how they can be exploited to target tumors and the clinical translation of novel anti-cancer chemotherapeutics.

    Multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) are a form of flexible fibrous nanomaterial with high electrical and thermal conductivity. However, 50-nm MWCNT in diameter causes malignant mesothelioma (MM) in rodents and, thus, the International Agency of Research on Cancer has designated them as a possible human carcinogen. Little is known about the molecular mechanism through which MWCNT causes MM. To elucidate the carcinogenic mechanisms of MWCNT in mesothelial cells, we used a variety of lysates to comprehensively identify proteins specifically adsorbed on pristine MWCNT of different diameters (50 nm, NT50; 100 nm, NT100; 150 nm, NT150; and 15 nm/tangled, NTtngl) using mass spectrometry. We identified &gt;400 proteins, which included hemoglobin, histone, transferrin and various proteins associated with oxidative stress, among which we selected hemoglobin and transferrin for coating MWCNT to further evaluate cytotoxicity, wound healing, intracellular catalytic ferrous iron and oxidative stress in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells (RPMC). Cytotoxicity to RPMC was observed with pristine NT50 but not with NTtngl. Coating NT50 with hemoglobin or transferrin significantly aggravated cytotoxicity to RPMC, with an increase in cellular catalytic ferrous iron and DNA damage also observed. Knockdown of transferrin receptor with ferristatin II decreased not only NT50 uptake but also cellular catalytic ferrous iron. Our results suggest that adsorption of hemoglobin and transferrin on the surface of NT50 play a role in causing mesothelial iron overload, contributing to oxidative damage and possibly subsequent carcinogenesis in mesothelial cells. Uptake of NT50 at least partially depends on transferrin receptor 1. Modifications of NT50 surface may decrease this human risk.

    Anesthesia is sometimes used for the reduction of maternal pain in normal human term labor, but whether the drugs affect oxidative stress remains unclear. The placenta serves as an interface between the maternal and fetal vasculature. In this study, we immunohistochemically analyzed two markers for oxidative stress, namely 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins (HNE), using placentas from 21 cases of normal tansvaginal delivery (V group), 20 Caesarean sections (C group), and 17 normal transvaginal deliveries with epidural anesthesia (E group). 8-OHdG staining in the nuclei of trophoblasts lining the chorionic villi was significantly stronger in the V group either compared with the C or E group (p<0.001), without significant differences in the C and E groups (p = 0.792). Moderate to intense staining by HNE of the intravascular serum of chorionic villi vasculature was frequently observed in the placentas from the V group, but less frequently of those in either C or E groups (p<0.001), nor the p value comparing the C and E groups was significant (p = 0.128) for HNE staining. Our results suggest that although the role of oxidative stress and its influences on fetal state in the placenta in labor remains unclear, it seems to be lessened by epidural anesthesia.

    Exposure to inflammation in utero is related to perinatal brain injury, which is itself associated with high rates of long-term morbidity and mortality in children. Novel therapeutic interventions during the perinatal period are required to prevent inflammation, but its pathogenesis is incompletely understood. Activated microglia are known to play a central role in brain injury by producing a variety of pro-inflammatory cytokines and releasing oxidative products. The study is aimed to investigate the preventative potential of molecular hydrogen (H-2), which is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent without mutagenicity. Pregnant ICR mice were injected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) intraperitoneally on embryonic day 17 to create a model of perinatal brain injury caused by prenatal inflammation. In this model, the effect of maternal administration of hydrogen water (HW) on pups was also evaluated. The levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, oxidative damage and activation of microglia were determined in the fetal brains. H-2 reduced the LPS-induced expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, oxidative damage and microglial activation in the fetal brains. Next, we investigated how H-2 contributes to neuroprotection, focusing on microglia, using primary cultured microglia and neurons. H-2 prevented LPS- or cytokine-induced generation of reactive oxidative species by microglia and reduced LPS-induced microglial neurotoxicity. Finally, we identified several molecules influenced by H-2, involved in the process of activating microglia. These results suggested that H-2 holds promise for the prevention of inflammation related to perinatal brain injury. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a rare neoplasm associated with asbestos exposure. The prognosis of MM is poor because it is aggressive and highly resistant to chemotherapy. Using a rat model of asbestos-induced MM, we found elevated urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR
    Plaur) expression in rat tissues, which was associated with poor prognosis. The proliferation, migration and invasion of MM cells were suppressed by uPAR knockdown and increased by overexpression experiments, irrespective of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA
    Plau) levels. More importantly, we found that uPAR expression is associated with sensitivity to cisplatin in MM through the PI3K/AKT pathway, which was demonstrated with specific inhibitors, LY294002 and Akti-1/2. uPAR knockdown significantly increased sensitivity to cisplatin whereas its overexpression significantly decreased cisplatin sensitivity. Furthermore, sera and tissues from MM patients showed significantly high uPAR levels, which suggested the pathogenic role of uPAR in the tumor biology of human MM. In conclusion, our findings indicate that uPAR levels are associated with malignant characteristics and cisplatin sensitivity of MM. In addition to the potential use of uPAR as a prognostic marker, the combination of uPAR abrogation and cisplatin may reveal a promising therapeutic approach for MM.

    Ovarian endometriosis is a recognized risk for infertility and epithelial ovarian cancer, presumably due to iron overload resulting from repeated hemorrhage. To find a clue for early detection and prevention of ovarian endometriosis-associated cancer, it is mandatory to evaluate catalytic (labile) ferrous iron (catalytic Fe(II)) and to study iron manipulation in ovarian endometriotic lesions. By the use of tissues from women of ovarian endometriosis as well as endometrial tissue from women with and without endometriosis, we for the first time performed histological analysis and cellular detection of catalytic Fe(II) with a specific fluorescent probe (HMRhoNox-M), and further evaluated iron transport proteins in the human specimens and in co-culture experiments using immortalized human eutopic/ectopic endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) in the presence or absence of epithelial cells (EpCs). The amounts of catalytic Fe(II) were higher in ectopic endometrial stromal cells (ecESCs) than in normal eutopic endometrial stromal cells (n-euESCs) both in the tissues and in the corresponding immortalized ESCs. ecESCs exhibited higher transferrin receptor 1 expression both in vivo and in vitro and lower ferroportin expression in vivo than n-euESCs, leading to sustained iron uptake. In co-culture experiments of ESCs with iron-loaded EpCs, ecESCs received catalytic ferrous iron from EpCs, but n-euESCs did not. These data suggest that ecESC play a protective role for cancer-target epithelial cells by collecting excess iron, and that these characteristics are retained in the immortalized ecESCs.

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a relatively rare cancer that occurs almost exclusively following respiratory exposure to asbestos in humans. Its pathogenesis is closely associated with iron overload and oxidative stress in mesothelial cells. On fiber exposure, mesothelial cells accumulate fibers simultaneously with iron, which either performs physical scissor function or catalyzes free radical generation, leading to oxidative DNA damage such as strand breaks and base modifications, followed by activation of intracellular signaling pathways. Chrysotile, per se without iron, causes massive hemolysis and further adsorbs hemoglobin. Exposure to indigestible foreign materials also induces chronic inflammation, involving consistent generation of free radicals and subsequent activation of NALP3 inflammasomes in macrophages. All of these contribute to mesothelial carcinogenesis. Genomic alterations most frequently involve homozygous deletion of INK4A/4B, and other pathways such as Hippo and TGF-beta pathways are also affected in MM. Recently, analyses of familial MM sorted out BAP] as a novel responsible tumor suppressor gene, whose function is not fully elucidated. Five-year survival of mesothelioma is still similar to 8%, and this cancer is increasing worldwide. Connective tissue growth factor, a secretory protein creating a vicious cycle mediated by beta-catenin, has been recognized as a hopeful target for therapy, especially in sarcomatoid subtype. Recent research outcomes related to microRNAs and cancer stem cells also offer additional novel targets for the treatment of MM. Iron reduction as chemoprevention of mesothelioma is helpful at least in an animal preclinical study. Integrated approaches to fiber-induced oxidative stress would be necessary to overcome this currently fatal disease. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Sunlight exposure and aging are two major factors in the deterioration of skin function. In the present study, we used eighty formalin-fixed human skin samples from sun-exposed and unexposed areas from old and young individuals to evaluate the presence of miR-125b-positive epidermal stem cells (ESCs) by in situ hybridization. miR-125b-positive ESCs were detected in the basal layer of the epidermis. The density of miR-125b-positive ESCs was significantly associated with age rather than sun exposure, whereas the density of miR-125b-positive ESCs tended to decrease in the sun-exposed area. These data suggest the potential use of miR-125b as a surrogate marker for the quality of epidermal cells.

    Asbestos exposure is considered a social burden by causing mesothelioma. Despite the use of synthetic materials, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are similar in dimension to asbestos and produce mesothelioma in animals. The role of inflammatory cells in mesothelial carcinogenesis remains unclear. Here, we evaluated the differences in inflammatory cell responses following exposure to these fibrous materials using a luminometer and L-012 (8-amino-5-chloro-7-phenylpyrido[3,4-d]pyridazine-1,4-(2H,3H) dione) to detect reactive oxygen species (ROS). Rat peripheral blood or RAW264.7 cells were used to assess the effects on neutrophils and macrophages, respectively. Crocidolite and amosite induced significant ROS generation by neutrophils with a peak at 10 min, whereas that of chrysotile was similar to 25% of the crocidolite/amosite response. MWCNTs with different diameters (similar to 15, 50, 115 and 145 nm) and different carcinogenicity did not induce significant ROS in peripheral blood. However, the MWCNTs induced a comparable amount of ROS in RAW264.7 cells to that following asbestos treatment. The peaks for MWCNTs (0.5-1.5 h) were observed earlier than those for asbestos (1-5 h). Apocynin and superoxide dismutase significantly inhibited ROS generation for each fiber, suggesting an involvement of NADPH oxidase and superoxide. Thus, asbestos and MWCNTs induce different oxidative responses in inflammatory cells, indicating the importance of mesothelial cell evaluation for carcinogenesis.

    Involvement of iron in the development of neurodegenerative disorders has long been suggested, and iron that cannot be stored properly is suggested to induce iron toxicity. To enhance iron uptake and suppress iron storage in neurons, we generated transgenic (Tg) mice expressing iron regulatory protein 2 (IRP2), a major regulator of iron metabolism, in a neuron-specific manner. Although very subtle, IRP2 was expressed in all regions of brain examined. In the Tg mice, mitochondrial oxidative insults were observed including generation of 4-hydroxynonenal modified proteins, which appeared to be removed by a mitochondrial quality control protein Parkin. Inter-crossing of the Tg mice to Parkin knockout mice perturbed the integrity of neurons in the substantia nigra and provoked motor symptoms. These results suggest that a subtle, but chronic increase in IRP2 induces mitochondrial oxidative insults and accelerates neurodegeneration in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease. Thus, the IRP2 Tg may be a useful tool to probe the roles of iron-induced mitochondrial damages in neurodegeraration research. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are a novel synthetic material comprising only carbon atoms. Based on its rigidity, its electrical and heat conductivity and its applicability to surface manufacturing, this material is expected to have numerous applications in industry. However, due to the material's dimensional similarity to asbestos fibers, its carcinogenicity was hypothesized during the last decade, and indeed, we have shown that multi- wall CNTs (MWCNTs) of 50 nm in diameter are potently carcinogenic to mesothelial cells after intraperitoneal injection. Additionally, we suggested that inflammogenicity after intraperitoneal injection can predict mesothelial carcinogenesis. However, few data have been published on the intraperitoneal inflammogenicity of single-wall CNTs (SWCNTs). Here, we conducted a series of studies on SWCNTs using both intraperitoneal injection into rats and MeT5A mesothelial cells. Intraperitoneal injection of 10 mg SWCNTs caused no remarkable inflammation in the abdominal cavity, and the exposure of MeT5A cells to up to 25 mu g/cm(2) SWCNTs did not alter proliferation. MWCNTs of 50 nm in diameter were used as a positive control, and tangled MWCNTs of 15 nm in diameter were used as a negative control. The results suggest that SWCNTs are a low- risk material with respect to mesothelial carcinogenesis.

    Amniotic fluid contains numerous biomolecules derived from fetus and mother, thus providing precious information on pregnancy. Here, we evaluated oxidative stress of human amniotic fluid and measured the concentration of catalytic Fe(II). Amniotic fluid samples were collected with consent from a total of 89 subjects in Nagoya University Hospital, under necessary medical interventions: normal pregnancy at term, normal pregnancy at the 2nd trimester, preterm delivery with maternal disorders but without fetal disorders, congenital diaphragmatic hernia, fetal growth restriction, pregnancy-induced hypertension, gestational diabetes mellitus, Down syndrome and trisomy 18. Catalytic Fe(II) and oxidative stress markers (8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, 8-OHdG; dityrosine) were determined with RhoNox-1 and specific antibodies, respectively, using plate assays. Levels of 8-OHdG and dityrosine were higher in the 3rd trimester compared with the 2nd trimester in normal subjects, and the abnormal groups generally showed lower levels than the controls, thus suggesting that they represent fetal metabolic activities. In contrast, catalytic Fe(II) was higher in the 2nd trimester than the 3rd trimester in the normal subjects, and overall the abnormal groups showed higher levels than the controls, suggesting that high catalytic Fe(II) at late gestation reflects fetal pathologic alterations. Notably, products of H2O2 and catalytic Fe(II) remained almost constant in amniotic fluid.

    Maternal inflammation is associated with spontaneous preterm birth and respiratory impairment among premature infants. Recently, molecular hydrogen (H-2) has been reported to have a suppressive effect on oxidative stress and infl ammation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of H-2 on fetal lung injury caused by maternal infl ammation. Cell viability and the production of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were examined by treatment with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) contained in ordinal or H-2-rich medium (HM) using a human lung epithelial cell line, A549. Pregnant Sprague Dawley rats were divided into three groups: Control, LPS, and HW + LPS groups. Rats were injected with phosphate-buffered saline (Control) or LPS intraperitoneally (LPS) on gestational day 19 and provided H-2 water (HW) ad libitum for 24 h before LPS injection (HW + LPS). Fetal lung samples were collected on day 20, and the levels of apoptosis, oxidative damage, IL-6, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were evaluated using immunohistochemistry. The number of apoptotic cells, and levels of ROS and IL-6 were significantly increased by LPS treatment, and repressed following cultured with HM in A549 cells. In the rat models, the population positive for cleaved caspase-3, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, IL-6, and VEGF was significantly increased in the LPS group compared with that observed in the Control group and significantly decreased in the HW + LPS group. In this study, LPS administration induced apoptosis and oxidative damage in fetal lung cells that was ameliorated by maternal H-2 intake. Antenatal H-2 administration may decrease the pulmonary mobility associated with infl ammation in premature infants.

    OBJECTIVES: It has been reported that 1,2-Dichloropropane (DCP) induced cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) in offset color proof-printing workers. However, exposure to DCP by inhalation or gavage for 2 year did not induce CCA in mice and rats. The present study mapped the hepatic distribution of GST, which is known to activate dihalogenated alkanes, and proliferative and fibrotic changes in bile ducts in various species to find the most appropriate animal model of DCP-induced CCA. METHODS: First, 12 each of C57BL/6J mice, Balb/cA mice, F344 rats, Syrian hamsters, and guinea pigs were divided into four equal groups and exposed to DCP at 0, 300, 1,000, or 3,000 ppm 8 hours/day for 7 days. Second, 32 Balb/cA mice and 32 Syrian hamsters were each divided into four equal groups and exposed to DCP at 0, 200, 400, and 800 ppm 6 hours/day for 14 days. After the last exposure, the animals were decapitated, and the livers were dissected out for histopathological evaluation. Immunostaining was conducted to determine the distribution of GSTT1, GSTM1, and GSTPi, as well as the expression of proliferation marker Ki67. RESULTS: GSTT1, GSTM1, and GSTPi were expressed in both hepatocytes and bile duct cells in all control and exposed animals. There was no clear difference in the expression of Ki67 between the exposed groups and the control. No fibrotic changes were observed in any species or strains examined. CONCLUSIONS: Expression of GSTT1 or other GST isozymes might not explain the difference in sensitivity of hepatocytes and the bile duct to DCP between humans and rodents.

    We have been developing novel ultrahigh density atmospheric pressure plasma sources and succeeded in the selective killing ovarian cancer cells against normal ones. Furthermore, we have found out the plasma- activated medium (PAM) also killed glioblastoma brain tumor cells selectively against normal ones and the chemical products in the PAM have long lifetime healing effects. To clarify the mechanism, interactions of plasma with the organism and the medium where the organism belongs were investigated on the viewpoint of intracellular molecular mechanism.

    8-Oxoguanine (8-oxoG) is one of the most common DNA lesions generated by reactive oxygen species. In this study, we analysed the genome-wide distribution profile of 8-oxoG by combining immunoprecipitation by antibodies specific for the DNA fragments containing 8-oxoG with a microarray that covers rat genome. Genome-wide mapping of 8-oxoG in normal rat kidney revealed that 8-oxoG is preferentially located at gene deserts. We did not observe differences in 8-oxoG levels between groups of genes with high and low expression, possibly because of the generally low 8-oxoG levels in genic regions compared with gene deserts. The distribution of 8-oxoG and lamina-associated domains (LADs) were strongly correlated, suggesting that the spatial location of genomic DNA in the nucleus determines the susceptibility to oxidative modifications. One possible explanation for high 8-oxoG levels in LADs is that the nuclear periphery is more susceptible to the oxidative damage caused by the extra-nuclear factors. Moreover, LADs have a rather compact conformation, which may limit the recruitment of repair components to the modified bases.

    Thermal plasmas and lasers are used in medicine to cut and ablate tissues and for coagulation. Non-equilibrium atmospheric pressure plasma (NEAPP) is a recently developed, non-thermal technique with possible biomedical applications. Although NEAPP reportedly generates reactive oxygen/nitrogen species, electrons, positive ions, and ultraviolet radiation, little research has been done into the use of this technique for conventional free radical biology. Recently, we developed a NEAPP device with high electron density. Electron spin resonance spin-trapping revealed (OH)-O-center dot as a major product. To obtain evidence of NEAPP-induced oxidative modifications in biomolecules and standardize them, we evaluated lipid peroxidation and DNA modifications in various in vitro and ex vivo experiments. Conjugated dienes increased after exposure to linoleic and a-linolenic acids. An increase in 2-thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances was also observed after exposure to phosphatidylcholine, liposomes or liver homogenate. Direct exposure to rat liver in saline produced immunohistochemical evidence of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal- and acrolein-modified proteins. Exposure to plasmid DNA induced dose-dependent single/double strand breaks and increased the amounts of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine and cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers. These results indicate that oxidative biomolecular damage by NEAPP is dose-dependent and thus can be controlled in a site-specific manner. Simultaneous oxidative and UV-specific DNA damage may be useful in cancer treatment.

    Iron overload of a chronic nature has been associated with a wide variety of human diseases, including infection, carcinogenesis, and atherosclerosis. Recently, a highly specific turn-on fluorescent probe (RhoNox-1) specific to labile ferrous iron [Fe(II)], but not to labile ferric iron [Fe(III)], was developed. The evaluation of Fe(II) is more important than Fe(III) in vivo in that Fe(II) is an initiating component of the Fenton reaction. In this study, we applied this probe to frozen sections of an established Fenton reaction-based rat renal carcinogenesis model with an iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), in which catalytic iron induces the Fenton reaction specifically in the renal proximal tubules, presumably after iron reduction. Notably, this probe reacted with Fe(II) but with neither Fe(II)-NTA, Fe(III) nor Fe(III)-NTA in vitro. Prominent red fluorescent color was explicitly observed in and around the lumina of renal proximal tubules 1 h after an intraperitoneal injection of 10-35 mg iron/kg Fe-NTA, which was dose-dependent, according to semiquantitative analysis. The RhoNox-1 signal colocalized with the generation of hydroxyl radicals, as detected by hydroxyphenyl fluorescein (HPF). The results demonstrate the transformation of Fe(III)-NTA to Fe(II) in vivo in the Fe-NTA-induced renal carcinogenesis model. Therefore, this probe would be useful for localizing catalytic Fe(II) in studies using tissues.

    Recent reports have indicated human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) to be associated with human glioblastoma carcinogenesis. In established examples of viral carcinogenesis, viral DNA and one or more of its products have been detected in most tumor cells of biopsies in the majority of cases. To test whether HCMV is associated with human glioblastoma based on this criterion, we measured the number of viral DNA molecules per cell in both frozen and paraffin-embedded tumor biopsies from 58 patients using real-time quantitative PCR (QPCR). Immunohistochemical and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to detect HCMV proteins and genome was performed in 10 cases using formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded glioblastoma tissues. Southern blotting using DNA extracted from four glioblastoma cell lines together with immunoblotting using the four cell lines and five glioblastoma tissue samples were also performed. We further confirmed the immunoblot bands using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry assay. As a result, HCMV DNA was not detected in the tumor cells from any of the glioblastoma cases by QPCR detecting two different HCMV genes, in clear contrast to samples from patients with HCMV infection. Southern blotting and immunoblotting of cell lines and FISH using paraffin sections were all negative. However, immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry using tissue samples were partly positive, but HCMV proteins were not detected by proteomic analysis, suggesting false positivity of the analyses. As our QPCR analysis could detect 10 copies of HCMV DNA mixed with DNA extracted from 10(4) HCMV-negative cells, we conclude that HCMV is not persistent, at least in the tumor cells, of developed human glioblastoma.

    Macrophage infiltration of skin GVHD lesions correlates directly with disease severity, but the mechanisms underlying this relationship remain unclear and GVHD with many macrophages is a therapeutic challenge. Here, we characterize the macrophages involved in GVHD and report that dexamethasone palmitate (DP), a liposteroid, can ameliorate such GVHD by inhibiting macrophage functions. We found that host-derived macrophages could exacerbate GVHD in a mouse model through expression of higher levels of pro-inflammatory TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma, and lower levels of anti-inflammatory IL-10 than resident macrophages in mice without GVHD. DP significantly decreased the viability and migration capacity of primary mouse macrophages compared to conventional dexamethasone in vitro. DP treatment on day 7 and day 14 decreased macrophage number, and attenuated GVHD score and subsequent mortality in a murine model. This is the first study to provide evidence that therapy for GVHD should be changed on the basis of infiltrating cell type.

    Mucinous tumors of the ovary are frequently associated with mature cystic teratomas, and it has been speculated that the mucinous tumors arise from teratoma components. The cellular origins of mature cystic teratomas are believed to be post-meiotic ovarian germ cells, and the analysis of microsatellite markers such as short tandem repeats is suitable for determining the cellular origin of tumors. In this study, we analyzed 3 ovarian mature cystic teratomas, all of which were associated with simultaneous ovarian mucinous tumors within the same ovary. Two of the 3 mucinous tumors were intestinal-type and the other was endocervical type. A laser capture microdissection technique was used to separate the epithelial component of the mucinous tumor, the components of the mature cystic teratoma, and control ovarian somatic tissue. Using short tandem repeat analysis based on 6 markers (D20S480, D6S2439, D6S1056, D9S1118, D4S2639, and D17S1290), we could distinguish the germ cell (homozygous) or somatic (heterozygous) origin of a given component in each sample. The epithelial components of the intestinal-type mucinous tumors in cases 1 and 2 were homozygous, and the epithelial component in case 3 (endocervical type) was heterozygous. All teratomatous components were homozygous, and the control components were heterozygous. In addition, we analyzed 3 mature cystic teratomas without mucinous tumors, and all 3 were homozygous in the tumor component. Our data suggest that the origin of mucinous tumors in the ovary may differ among histological subtypes, and intestinal-type mucinous tumors may arise from mature cystic teratomas, although endocervical-type mucinous tumors may not.

    Molecular hydrogen (H-2) scavenges hydroxyl radicals. Recently, H-2 has been reported to prevent a variety of diseases associated with oxidative stress in model systems and in humans. Here, we studied the effects of H-2 on rat fetal hippocampal damage caused by ischemia and reperfusion (IR) on day 16 of pregnancy with the transient occlusion of the bilateral utero-ovarian arteries. Starting 2 days before the operation, we provided the mothers with hydrogen-saturated water ad libitum until vaginal delivery. We observed a significant increase in the concentration of H-2 in the placenta after the oral administration of hydrogen-saturated water to the mothers, with less placental oxidative damage after IR in the presence of H-2. Neonatal growth retardation was observed in the IR group, which was alleviated by the H-2 administration. We analyzed the neuronal cell damage in the CA1 and CA3 areas of the hippocampus at day 7 after birth by immunohistochemical analysis of the 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2 '-deoxyguanosine- and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins. Both oxidative stress markers were significantly increased in the IR group, which was again ameliorated by the H-2 intake. Last, 8-week-old rats were subjected to a Morris water maze test. Maternal H-2 administration improved the reference memory of the offspring to the sham level after IR injury during pregnancy. Overall, the present results support the idea that maternal H-2 intake helps prevent the hippocampal impairment of offspring induced by IR during pregnancy. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc.

    Asbestos was abundantly used in industry during the last century. Currently, asbestos confers a heavy social burden due to an increasing number of patients with malignant mesothelioma ( MM), which develops after a long incubation period. Many studies have been conducted on the effects of the asbestos types that were most commonly used for commercial applications. However, there are few studies describing the effects of the less common types, or minor asbestos. We performed a rat carcinogenesis study using Japanese tremolite and Afghan anthophyllite. Whereas more than 50% of tremolite fibers had a diameter of &lt; 500 nm, only a small fraction of anthophyllite fibers had a diameter of &lt; 500 nm. We intraperitoneally injected 1 or 10 mg of asbestos into F1 Fischer-344/Brown-Norway rats. In half of the animals, repeated intraperitoneal injections of nitrilotriacetate (NTA), an iron chelator to promote Fenton reaction, were performed to evaluate the potential involvement of iron overload. Tremolite induced MM with a high incidence (96% with 10 mg; 52% with 1 mg), and males were more susceptible than females. Histology was confirmed using immunohistochemistry, and most MMs were characterized as the sarcomatoid or biphasic subtype. Unexpectedly NTA showed an inhibitory effect in females. In contrast, anthophyllite induced no MM after an observation period of 550 days. The results suggest that the carcinogenicity of anthophyllite is weaker than formerly reported, whereas that of tremolite is as potent as major asbestos as compared with our previous data.

    Like many other human cancers, the development of malignant mesothelioma is closely associated with a chronic inflammatory condition. Both macrophages and mesothelial cells play crucial roles in the inflammatory response caused by asbestos exposure. Here, we show that adipocytes can also contribute to asbestos-induced inflammation through dysregulated adipocytokine production. 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were differentiated into mature adipocytes prior to use. These cells took up asbestos fibers (chrysotile, crocidolite and amosite) but were more resistant to asbestos-induced injury than macrophages and mesothelial cells. Expression microarray analysis followed by reverse transcriptionPCR revealed that adipocytes respond directly to asbestos exposure with an increased production of proinflammatory adipocytokines [e.g. monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1)], whereas the production of anti-inflammatory adipocytokines (e.g. adiponectin) is suppressed. This was confirmed in epididymal fat pad of mice after intraperitoneal injection of asbestos fibers. Such dysregulated adipocytokine production favors the establishment of a proinflammatory environment. Furthermore, MCP-1 marginally promoted the growth of MeT-5A mesothelial cells and significantly enhanced the wound healing of Y-MESO-8A and Y-MESO-8D human mesothelioma cells. Our results suggest that increased levels of adipocytokines, such as MCP-1, can potentially contribute to the promotion of mesothelial carcinogenesis through the enhanced recruitment of inflammatory cells as well as a direct growth and migration stimulatory effect on mesothelial and mesothelioma cells. Taken together, our findings support a potential cancer-promoting role of adipocytes in asbestos-induced mesothelial carcinogenesis.

    The main determinant of glioblastoma (GBM) resistance to temozolomide (TMZ) is thought to be O-6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT), which is a DNA-repair enzyme that removes alkyl groups from the O-6-position of guanine. Previously, we reported that a MGMT-siRNA/cationic liposome complex exerted a clear synergistic antitumor effect in combination with TMZ. Translation to a clinical setting might be desirable for reinforcing the efficacy of TMZ therapy for GBM. In this study, we aim to evaluate the safety of MGMT-siRNA/cationic liposome complexes and determine whether the convection-enhanced delivery of these complexes is suitable for clinical use by undertaking preclinical testing in laboratory animals. No significant adverse events were observed in rats receiving infusions of MGMT-siRNA/cationic liposome complex directly into the brain with or without TMZ administration. A pig which received the complex administered by CED also showed no evidence of neurological dysfunction or histological abnormalities. However, the complex did not appear to achieve effective distribution by CED in either the rat or the porcine brain tissue. Considering these results together, we concluded that insufficient distribution of cationic liposomes was achieved for tumor treatment by CED.

    がんは1981年以降日本人の死因の第1位を占めており、年齢調整死亡率はやや低下傾向にあるものの、死亡数は増加の一途をたどっている。こういう状況においては、がんの原因として万人に共通の基盤があると考えざるをえない。われわれは酸素なしで生きることはできず、それに伴って活性酸素が発生しており、また、その活性酸素を殺菌などにも利用している。こうした活性酸素のなかでもヒドロキシラジカルやその類縁化学種は反応性がきわめて高く、ゲノムの情報改変の原動力となる。感染性あるいは非感染性の炎症は酸化ストレスを増強する。また、体内過剰鉄はフェントン反応の触媒となるという意味から重要であり、しかも炎症と局所の鉄過剰はリンクすることがわかってきた。年2回の瀉血ががん予防となるという趣旨の論文報告もあり、この領域におけるさらなる研究発展が望まれる。(著者抄録)

    Asbestos was used worldwide in huge quantities in the past century. However, because of the unexpected carcinogenicity to mesothelial cells with an extremely long incubation period, many countries face this long-lasting social problem. Mesothelioma is often diagnosed in an advanced stage, for which no effective therapeutic protocols are yet established. We previously reported on the basis of animal experiments that the major pathology in asbestos-induced mesothelial carcinogenesis is local iron overload. Here, we undertook to find an effective strategy to prevent, delay, or lower the malignant potential of mesothelioma during asbestos-induced carcinogenesis. We used intraperitoneal injections of crocidolite to rats. We carried out a 16-week study to seek the maximal-tolerated intervention for iron reduction via oral deferasirox administration or intensive phlebotomy. Splenic iron deposition was significantly decreased with either method, and we found that Perls' iron staining in spleen is a good indicator for iron reduction. We injected a total of 10 mg crocidolite at the age of six weeks, and the preventive measures were via repeated oral administration of 25 to 50 mg/kg/d deferasirox or weekly to bimonthly phlebotomy of 4 to 10 mL/kg/d. The animals were observed until 110 weeks. Deferasirox administration significantly increased the fraction of less malignant epithelioid subtype. Although we found a slightly prolonged survival in deferasirox-treated female rats, larger sample size and refinement of the current protocol are necessary to deduce the cancer-preventive effects of deferasirox. Still, our results suggest deferasirox serves as a potential preventive strategy in people already exposed to asbestos via iron reduction.

    Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have attracted public attention not only for their potential applications in engineering and materials science but also for possible environmental risks. MWCNTs share similar properties with asbestos, a definite human carcinogen causing malignant mesothelioma (MM), in that they are both biopersistent thin fibers with a high aspect ratio. Certain types of MWCNTs do induce MM in animal experiments. Though there are many different types of MWCNTs awaiting use in industry, there is little evidence about what types of MWCNTs present a high risk for MMin vivo. We have previously shown that the diameter of MWCNTs is one of the critical factors for mesothelial injury, which eventually leads to MM. Because of the extensive commercial use of MWCNTs, the properties of MWCNTs that determine carcinogenic activity should be clarified. Here we report that a high dose (10mg) of a tangled form of pristine MWCNT (with a diameter of 15nm) did not induce MM after intraperitoneal administration in rats, which were followed for up to 3 years after injection. This observation strengthens our previous finding that the rigidity, diameter, length and surface properties of MWCNTs are important factors in MM induction in vivo. © 2013 Japanese Society of Pathology and Wiley Publishing Asia Pty Ltd.

    Expression and implication of carbohydrate antigens in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) in oral cavity was examined. In the cell lines, type 2H and Lewis y antigens were markedly expressed. In the tissues from SCC patients and benign disorders, type 2H was highly expressed in hyperplasia (96.4 %), displasia (92.9 %) and SCC (100 %). Lewis y was, in turn, expressed mainly in cancer tissues (91.3 %), suggesting that Lewis y is a cancer-associated antigen. Normal oral mucosa showed no expression of these blood group antigens. Surprisingly, Lewis y antigen disappeared in the invasion sites where Ki-67 was definitely stained. Over-expression of Lewis y with manipulation of a fucosyltransferase cDNA resulted in suppression of cell growth and invasion, and knockdown of Lewis y also brought about increased cell growth and invasion. In either situations, no changes in the expression of sialyl-Lewis x could be found. Lowered tumor growth and invasion into surrounding tissues were also shown in Lewis y-positive SCC grafts in nu/nu mice. All these results together with alternative staining between Lewis y and Ki-67 in cancer tissues and FUT1 transfectants suggested that loss of Lewis y is a crucial event for the late stage of SCCs.

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM), which is associated with asbestos exposure, is one of the most deadly tumors in humans. Early MM is concealed in the serosal cavities and lacks specific clinical symptoms. For better treatment, early detection and prognostic markers are necessary. Recently, CD146 and insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 3 (IMP3) were reported as possible positive markers of MM to distinguish from reactive mesothelia in humans. However, their application on MM of different species and its impact on survival remain to be elucidated. To disclose the utility of these molecules as early detection and prognostic markers of MM, we injected chrysotile or crocidolite intraperitoneally to rats, thus obtaining 26 peritoneal MM and establishing 11 cell lines. We immunostained CD146 and IMP3 using paraffin-embedded tissues and cell blocks and found CD146 and IMP3 expression in 58% (15/26) and 65% (17/26) of MM, respectively, but not in reactive mesothelia. There was no significant difference in both immunostainings for overexpression among the three histological subtypes of MM and the expression of CD146 and IMP3 was proportionally associated. Furthermore, the overexpression of CD146 and/or IMP3 was proportionally correlated with shortened survival. These results suggest that CD146 and IMP3 are useful diagnostic and prognostic markers of MM.

    Long-term exercise prior to brain ischemia enhances the activities of antioxidant enzymes and leads to a significant reduction in brain damage and neurological deficits in rats subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion. However, it has not been established whether relatively short-term exercise generates similar results following middle cerebral artery occlusion. We aimed to determine whether short-term exercise could reduce oxidative damage and prevent sensori-motor dysfunction. Male Wistar rats were subjected to perform daily exercise on a treadmill for 30 min at a speed of 15 m/min for 3 weeks, followed by a 90-mm middle cerebral artery occlusion. Animals were assessed after middle cerebral artery occlusion for neurological deficits and sensori-motor function. Brain tissues were processed to evaluate infarct volume and oxidative damage. Oxidative stress was assessed using immunohistochemistry for 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine. Antioxidant enzymes were evaluated using immunohistochemistry for thioredoxin and activity assay for superoxide dismutase. Exercise for 3 weeks decreased the severity of paralysis and impairment in forelimb motor coordination. Furthermore, exercise had effect on superoxide dismutase and reduced the infarct volume and the number of cells immunopositive for 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine. Our results suggest that pre-conditioning treadmill exercise for 3 weeks is useful for ameliorating ischemia-induced brain injury.

    Exposure to asbestos fibers increases the risk of mesothelioma in humans. One hypothetical carcinogenic mechanism is that asbestos fibers may directly induce mutations in mesothelial cells. Although the uptake of asbestos fibers by mesothelial cells is recognized, methods for the quantification of the uptake have not been well established. In the present study, we evaluated two distinct methods, using crocidolite fibers and MeT5A mesothelial cells. One method is histological evaluation using the cell-block technique, which allows for the direct cross-sectional observation of cells and fibers. We found the bright field observation with x1000 magnification (oil-immersion) of the sample with Kernechtrot staining was most suitable for this purpose. The other method is flow cytometric analysis, which permits the evaluation of a much larger number of cells. We observed that the side scatter (SSC) increased with the intracellular fibers, and that the "mean SSC ratio (treated/control)" was useful for quantification. We could collect the cells with abundant internalized crocidolite fibers by sorting. Results of the two methodologies were correlated well in the experiments. The quantities of internalized fibers increased with incubation time and loaded dosage, but they were inversely associated with cellular density in culture.

    BACKGROUND: Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) can act as neoantigens to trigger immune responses. RESULTS: Natural IgM antibodies against AGEs recognize multiple molecules, including DNA and chemically modified proteins. CONCLUSION: There is a close relationship between the formation of AGEs and innate immune responses. SIGNIFICANCE: Our findings highlight AGEs and related modified proteins as a source of multispecific natural antibodies Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are a heterogeneous and complex group of compounds that are formed when reducing sugars, such as dehydroascorbic acid, react in a nonenzymatic way with amino acids in proteins and other macromolecules. AGEs are prevalent in the diabetic vasculature and contribute to the development of atherosclerosis. The presence and accumulation of AGEs in many different cell types affect the extracellular and intracellular structure and function. In the present study, we studied the immune response to the dehydroascorbic acid-derived AGEs and provide multiple lines of evidence suggesting that the AGEs could be an endogenous source of innate epitopes recognized by natural IgM antibodies. Prominent IgM titers to the AGEs were detected in the sera of normal mice and were significantly accelerated by the immunization with the AGEs. Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), a potentially fatal systemic autoimmune disease characterized by the increased production of autoantibodies, showed significantly higher serum levels of the IgM titer against the AGEs than healthy individuals. A progressive increase in the IgM response against the AGEs was also observed in the SLE-prone mice. Strikingly, a subset of monoclonal antibodies, showing a specificity toward the AGEs, prepared from normal mice immunized with the AGEs and from the SLE mice cross-reacted with the double-stranded DNA. Moreover, they also cross-reacted with several other modified proteins, including the acetylated proteins, suggesting that the multiple specificity of the antibodies might be ascribed, at least in part, to the increased electronegative potential of the proteins. These findings suggest that the protein modification by the endogenous carbonyl compounds, generating electronegative proteins, could be a source of multispecific natural antibodies.

    Clear cell adenocarcinoma of the ovary (OCC) is a chemo-resistant tumor with a relatively poor prognosis and is frequently associated with endometriosis. Although it is assumed that oxidative stress plays some role in the malignant transformation of this tumor, the characteristic molecular events leading to carcinogenesis remain unknown. In this study, an array-based comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analysis revealed Met gene amplification in 4/13 OCC primary tumors and 2/8 OCC cell lines. Amplification of the AKT2 gene, which is a downstream component of the Met/PI3K signaling pathway, was also observed in 5/21 samples by array-based CGH analysis. In one patient, both the Met and AKT2 genes were amplified. These findings were confirmed using fluorescence in situ hybridization, real-time quantitative PCR, immunoblotting, and immunohistochemistry. In total, 73 OCC cases were evaluated using real-time quantitative PCR
    37.0% demonstrated Met gene amplification (&gt
    4 copies), and 8.2% had AKT2 amplification. Furthermore, stage 1 and 2 patients with Met gene amplification had significantly worse survival than patients without Met gene amplification (p&lt
    0.05). Met knockdown by shRNA resulted in reduced viability of OCC cells with Met amplification due to increased apoptosis and cellular senescence, suggesting that the Met signaling pathway plays an important role in OCC carcinogenesis. Thus, we believe that targeted inhibition of the Met pathway may be a promising treatment for OCC. © 2013 Yamashita et al.

    Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-1 inhibitor has been suggested to attenuate the ischemia-reperfusion injury. We investigated the protective effect of the cardioplegia with a PARP-1 inhibitor, 4-hydoxyquinazoline (4-HQ), against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. Isolated rat hearts were perfused on a Langendorff apparatus and cardioplegically arrested for 90 min by perfusion with St. Thomas' Hospital solution (ST-solution). In the Group ST (n = 8), the hearts were arrested with the ST-solution alone. The Group HQ (n = 8) were treated with the ST-solution containing 4-HQ (10 mu M) for cardioplegia. During reperfusion, the Group HQ showed significantly greater functional recovery of +dp/dt(max) (p = 0.005) and lower enzymatic leakage (p &lt; 0.01). NAD(+) levels were also preserved higher in the Group HQ (p &lt; 0.01). Immunohistochemical study revealed lesser extents of oxidative stress and apoptosis, in the Group HQ. Thus, addition of 4-HQ in the cardioplegia may provide a new intervention for myocardial protection against ischemia-reperfusion injury by decreasing NAD+ consumption and suppressing oxidative stress.

    Mesothelial cells, which have diverse roles in physiology and pathology, constitute the mesothelium along with connective tissue and the basement membrane; the mesothelium serves to shield the somatic cavities. After mesothelial injury, mesothelial cells undergo tissue recovery. However, the mechanism of mesothelial regeneration remains poorly understood. In this study, we used confocal time-lapse microscopy to demonstrate that transformed mesothelial cells (MeT5A) and mouse peritoneal mesothelial cells can randomly migrate between cells in cell culture and in ex vivo tissue culture, respectively. Moreover, peritoneal mesothelial cells changed their morphology from a flattened shape to a cuboidal one prior to the migration. Conversely, MDCKII epithelial cells forming tight cell-cell contacts with one another do not alter the arrangement of adjacent cells during movement. Our evidence complements the current hypotheses of mesothelial regeneration and suggests that certain types of differentiated mesothelial cells undergo morphological changes before initiating migration to repair injured sites.

    Malignant mesothelioma (MM) shows frequent inactivation of the neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) -tumor-suppressor gene. Recent studies have documented that the Hippo signaling pathway, a downstream cascade of Merlin (a product of NF2), has a key role in organ size control and carcinogenesis by regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis. We previously reported that MMs show overexpression of Yes-associated protein (YAP) transcriptional coactivator, the main downstream effector of the Hippo signaling pathway, which results from the inactivation of NF2, LATS2 and/or SAV1 genes (the latter two encoding core components of the mammalian Hippo pathway) or amplification of YAP itself. However, the detailed roles of YAP remain unclear, especially the target genes of YAP that enhance MM cell growth and survival. Here, we demonstrated that YAP-knockdown inhibited cell motility, invasion and anchorage-independent growth as well as cell proliferation of MM cells in vitro. We analyzed genes commonly regulated by YAP in three MM cell lines with constitutive YAP-activation, and found that the major subsets of YAP-upregulating genes encode cell cycle regulators. Among them, YAP directly induced the transcription of CCND1 and FOXM1, in cooperation with TEAD transcription factor. We also found that knockdown of CCND1 and FOXM1 suppressed MM cell proliferation, although the inhibitory effects were less evident than those of YAP knockdown. These results indicate that constitutive YAP activation in MM cells promotes cell cycle progression giving more aggressive phenotypes to MM cells.

    Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a highly aggressive neoplasm arising from the mesothelial cells lining the parietal pleura and it exhibits poor prognosis. Although there has been significant progress in MPM treatment, development of more efficient therapeutic approaches is needed. BMAL1 is a core component of the circadian clock machinery and its constitutive overexpression in MPM has been reported. Here, we demonstrate that BMAL1 may serve as a molecular target for MPM. The majority of MPM cell lines and a subset of MPM clinical specimens expressed higher levels of BMAL1 compared to a nontumorigenic mesothelial cell line (MeT-5A) and normal parietal pleural specimens, respectively. A serum shock induced a rhythmical BMAL1 expression change in MeT-5A but not in ACC-MESO-1, suggesting that the circadian rhythm pathway is deregulated in MPM cells. BMAL1 knockdown suppressed proliferation and anchorage-dependent and independent clonal growth in two MPM cell lines (ACC-MESO-1 and H290) but not in MeT-5A. Notably, BMAL1 depletion resulted in cell cycle disruption with a substantial increase in apoptotic and polyploidy cell population in association with downregulation of Wee1, cyclin B and p21(WAF1/CIP1) and upregulation of cyclin E expression. BMAL1 knockdown induced mitotic catastrophe as denoted by disruption of cell cycle regulators and induction of drastic morphological changes including micronucleation and multiple nuclei in ACC-MESO-1 cells that expressed the highest level of BMAL1. Taken together, these findings indicate that BMAL1 has a critical role in MPM and could serve as an attractive therapeutic target for MPM.

    The inhalation of asbestos is a risk factor for the development of malignant mesothelioma and lung cancer. Based on the broad surface area of asbestos fibers and their ability to enter the cytoplasm and nuclei of cells, it was hypothesized that proteins that adsorb onto the fiber surface play a role in the cytotoxicity and carcinogenesis of asbestos fibers. However, little is known about which proteins adsorb onto asbestos. Previously, we systematically identified asbestos-interacting proteins and classified them into eight sub-categories: chromatin/nucleotide/RNA-binding proteins, ribosomal proteins, cytoprotective proteins, cytoskeleton-associated proteins, histones and hemoglobin. Here, we report an adsorption profile of proteins for the three commercially used asbestos compounds: chrysotile, crocidolite and amosite. We quantified the amounts of adsorbed proteins by analyzing the silver-stained gels of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with ImageJ software, using the bands for amosite as a standard. We found that histones were most adsorptive to crocidolite and that chromatin-binding proteins were most adsorptive to chrysotile. The results suggest that chrysotile and crocidolite directly interact with chromatin structure through different mechanisms. Furthermore, RNA-binding proteins preferably interacted with chrysotile, suggesting that chrysotile may interfere with transcription and translation. Our results provide novel evidence demonstrating that the specific molecular interactions leading to carcinogenesis are different between chrysotile and crocidolite.

    Milk provides a well-balanced source of amino acids and other ingredients. One of the functional ingredients in milk is lactoferrin (LF). LF presents a wide variety of bioactivities and functions as a radical scavenger in models using iron-ascorbate complexes and asbestos. Human clinical trials of oral LF administration for the prevention of colon polyps have been successful and demonstrated that dietary compounds exhibit direct interactions. However, antioxidative properties of IF in distant organs require further investigation. To study the antioxidant property of LF, we employed bovine lactoferrin (bLF) using the rat model of ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)-induced renal tubular oxidative injury. We fed rats with bLF (0.05%, w/w) in basal chow for 4 weeks and sacrificed them after Fe-NTA treatment. After intraperitoneal administration of 9.0 mg iron/kg Fe-NTA for 4 and 24 h, bLF pretreatment suppressed elevation of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels. In addition, we observed protective effects against renal oxidative tubular damage and maintenance of antioxidant enzyme activities in the bLF-pretreated group. We thus demonstrated the antioxidative effect of bLF against Fe-NTA-induced renal oxidative injury. These results suggest that LF intake is useful for the prevention of renal tubular oxidative damage mediated by iron.

    Objective: To understand the role of ectopic endometriotic stromal cells in ovarian endometriosis (OEM) and the associated risks for infertility and carcinogenesis.
    Design: Analyses of secreted proteins and gene expression using immortalized eutopic/ectopic endometrial(-otic) stromal cells from OEM.
    Setting: University.
    Patient(s): Women with and without OEM.
    Intervention(s): Samples of endometrial(-otic) tissue from women with or without OEM.
    Main Outcome Measure(s): Immunohistochemical analysis of oxidative stress in OEM, gene expression profiles, and the identification of secreted proteins by mass spectrometry in immortalized endometrial(-otic) stromal cells.
    Result(s): 4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal-modified proteins and carboxymethyllysine were abundant in the stroma, rather than epithelia, of OEM patients, indicating the presence of oxidative stress. Immortalized ectopic endometriotic stromal cells exhibited high IRP1/IRP2/HIF-1 beta expression and contained lower amounts of iron and copper than their eutopic counterparts. Expression profiles, in combination with protein identification, revealed that complement component 3 (C3) and pentraxin-3 (PTX3) are the major proteins secreted from immortalized ectopic endometriotic stromal cells. Complement-3/PTX3 promoted the secretion of various cytokines by THP1 macrophage cells and thus supported M1 differentiation.
    Conclusion(s): Immortalized ectopic endometriotic stromal cells in OEM predominantly secrete C3 and PTX3 and exhibit a differential regulation of iron metabolism. (Fertil Steril (R) 2012;98:415-22. (C) 2012 by American Society for Reproductive Medicine.)

    Iron overload has been associated with carcinogenesis in humans. Intraperitoneal administration of ferric nitrilotriacetate initiates a Fenton reaction in renal proximal tubules of rodents that ultimately leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) after repeated treatments. We performed high-resolution microarray comparative genomic hybridization to identify characteristics in the genomic profiles of this oxidative stress-induced rat RCCs. The results revealed extensive large-scale genomic alterations with a preference for deletions. Deletions and amplifications were numerous and sometimes fragmented, demonstrating that a Fenton reaction is a cause of such genomic alterations in vivo. Frequency plotting indicated that two of the most commonly altered loci corresponded to a Cdkn2a/2b deletion and a Met amplification. Tumor sizes were proportionally associated with Met expression and/or amplification, and clustering analysis confirmed our results. Furthermore, we developed a procedure to compare whole genomic patterns of the copy number alterations among different species based on chromosomal syntenic relationship. Patterns of the rat RCCs showed the strongest similarity to the human RCCs among five types of human cancers, followed by human malignant mesothelioma, an iron overload-associated cancer. Therefore, an iron-dependent Fenton chemical reaction causes large-scale genomic alterations during carcinogenesis, which may result in distinct genomic profiles. Based on the characteristics of extensive genome alterations in human cancer, our results suggest that this chemical reaction may play a major role during human carcinogenesis.

    Background. The role of ZEB1, a master epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition gene, in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is unclear.
    Methods. The expression of ZEB1, E-cadherin, vimentin, and epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) in 18 MPM cell lines and a normal pleural mesothelial cell line MeT-5A was determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot testing. RNA interference-mediated transient and/or stable knockdown of ZEB1 and EpCAM was performed. Microarray expression analysis was performed with a TORAY-3D gene chip. Growth was evaluated by colorimetric proliferation and colony formation assays. Luciferase reporter assay was performed to access the effects of ZEB1 knockdown on EpCAM promoter activity.
    Results. Most MPM cell lines exhibited mesenchymal phenotype and expressed ZEB1. Transient ZEB1 knockdown suppressed growth in all four cell lines studied (ACC-MESO-1, H2052, Y-MESO-8A, Y-MESO-29) while stable ZEB1 knockdown suppressed growth only in Y-MESO-29. Genome-wide gene expression analysis revealed that EpCAM was the most prominently up-regulated gene by both transient and stable ZEB1 knockdown in ACC-MESO-1, with more marked up-regulation in stable knockdown. We hypothesized that EpCAM up-regulation counteracts the stable ZEB1 knockdown-induced growth inhibition in ACC-MESO-1. Transient EpCAM knockdown suppressed growth dramatically in ACC-MESO-1 cells expressing shZEB1 but only modestly in those expressing shGFP, supporting our hypothesis. Luciferase reporter assay showed that ZEB1 knockdown resulted in increased EpCAM promoter activity. EpCAM was also up-regulated in Y-MESO-29 expressing shZEB1, but this EpCAM up-regulation did not counteract ZEB1knockdown-induced growth suppression, suggesting that the counteracting effects of EpCAM may be cellular context dependent.
    Conclusions. RNA interference-mediated ZEB1 knockdown may be a promising therapeutic strategy for MPM, but one has to consider the possibility of diminished growth inhibitory effects of long-term ZEB1 knockdown, possibly as a result of EpCAM up-regulation and/or other gene expression changes resulting from ZEB1 knockdown.

    Germ cell tumors (GCTs) are unique in that they exhibit diverse biological characteristics and pathological features. Although several in vivo GCT models are available, studies on GCTs are hampered because in vivo development of GCTs is time consuming and prevents a detailed molecular analysis of the transformation process. Here we developed a novel strategy to transform mouse testis cells in vitro. Lentivirus-mediated transfection of dominant negative Trp53, Myc, and activated Hras1 into a CD9-expressing testis cells caused tumorigenic conversion in vitro. Although these cells resembled embryonic stem (ES) cells, they were aneuploid and lacked Nanog expression, which is involved in the maintenance of the undifferentiated state in ES cells. Euploid ES-like cells were produced by transfecting the Yamanaka factors (Pou5f1, Myc, Klf4, and Sox2) into the same cell population. Although these cells expressed Nanog, they were distinct from ES cells in that they expressed CD44, a cancer stem cell antigen. Both treatments induced similar changes in the DNA methylation patterns in differentially methylated regions of imprinted genes. Moreover, despite the differences in their phenotype and karyotype, both cell types similarly produced mixed GCTs on transplantation, which were composed of teratomas, seminomas, and embryonal carcinomas. Thus, in vitro testis cell transformation facilitates an analysis of the GCT formation process, and our results also suggest the close similarity between GCT formation and reprogramming.

    In the tide of science nouveau after the completion of genome projects of various species, there appeared a movement to understand an organism as a system rather than the sum of cells directed for certain functions. With the advent and spread of microarray techniques, systematic and comprehensive genome-wide approaches have become reasonably possible and more required on the investigation of DNA damage and the subsequent repair. The immunoprecipitation-based technique combined with high-density microarrays or next-generation sequencing is one of the promising methods to provide access to such novel research strategies. Oxygen is necessary for most of the life on earth for electron transport. However, reactive oxygen species are inevitably generated, giving rise to steady-state levels of DNA damage in the genome, that may cause mutations leading to cancer, ageing and degenerative diseases. Previously, we showed that there are many factors involved in the genomic distribution of oxidatively generated DNA damage including chromosome territory, and proposed this sort of research area as oxygenomics. Recently, RNA is also recognized as a target of this kind of modification.

    Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have the potential for widespread applications in engineering and materials science. However, because of their needle-like shape and high durability, concerns have been raised that MWCNTs may induce asbestos-like pathogenicity. Although recent studies have demonstrated that MWCNTs induce various types of reactivities, the physicochemical features of MWCNTs that determine their cytotoxicity and carcinogenicity in mesothelial cells remain unclear. Here, we showed that the deleterious effects of nonfunctionalized MWCNTs on human mesothelial cells were associated with their diameter-dependent piercing of the cell membrane. Thin MWCNTs (diameter ∼ 50 nm) with high crystallinity showed mesothelial cell membrane piercing and cytotoxicity in vitro and subsequent inflammogenicity and mesotheliomagenicity in vivo. In contrast, thick (diameter ∼ 150 nm) or tangled (diameter ∼ 2-20 nm) MWCNTs were less toxic, inflammogenic, and carcinogenic. Thin and thick MWCNTs similarly affected macrophages. Mesotheliomas induced by MWCNTs shared homozygous deletion of Cdkn2a/2b tumor suppressor genes, similar to mesotheliomas induced by asbestos. Thus, we propose that different degrees of direct mesothelial injury by thin and thick MWCNTs are responsible for the extent of inflammogenicity and carcinogenicity. This work suggests that control of the diameter of MWCNTs could reduce the potential hazard to human health.

    Asbestos is a potent carcinogen associated with increased risks of malignant mesothelioma and lung cancer in humans. Although the mechanism of carcinogenesis remains elusive, the physicochemical characteristics of asbestos play a role in the progression of asbestos-induced diseases. Among these characteristics, a high capacity to adsorb and accommodate biomolecules on its abundant surface area has been linked to cellular and genetic toxicity. Several previous studies identified asbestos-interacting proteins. Here, with the use of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry, we systematically identified proteins from various lysates that adsorbed to the surface of commercially used asbestos and classified them into the following groups: chromatin/nucleotide/RNA-binding proteins, ribosomal proteins, cytoprotective proteins, cytoskeleton-associated proteins, histones and hemoglobin. The surfaces of crocidolite and amosite, two iron-rich types of asbestos, caused more protein scissions and oxidative modifications than that of chrysotile by in situ-generated 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal. In contrast, we confirmed the intense hemolytic activity of chrysotile and found that hemoglobin attached to chrysotile, but not silica, can work as a catalyst to induce oxidative DNA damage. This process generates 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine and thus corroborates the involvement of iron in the carcinogenicity of chrysotile. This evidence demonstrates that all three types of asbestos adsorb DNA and specific proteins, providing a niche for oxidative modification via catalytic iron. Therefore, considering the affinity of asbestos for histones/DNA and the internalization of asbestos into mesothelial cells, our results suggest a novel hypothetical mechanism causing genetic alterations during asbestos-induced carcinogenesis.

    Lung cancers with neuroendocrine (NE) features are often very aggressive but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. The transcription factor ASH1/ASCL1 is a master regulator of pulmonary NE cell development that is involved in the pathogenesis of lung cancers with NE features (NE-lung cancers). Here we report the definition of the microRNA miR-375 as a key downstream effector of ASH1 function in NE-lung cancer cells. miR-375 was markedly induced by ASH1 in lung cancer cells where it was sufficient to induce NE differentiation. miR-375 upregulation was a prerequisite for ASH1-mediated induction of NE features. The transcriptional coactivator YAP1 was determined to be a direct target of miR-375. YAP1 showed a negative correlation with miR-375 in a panel of lung cancer cell lines and growth inhibitory activities in NE-lung cancer cells. Our results elucidate an ASH1 effector axis in NE-lung cancers that is functionally pivotal in controlling NE features and the alleviation from YAP1-mediated growth inhibition.

    An alteration of mitochondrial function can result in disruption of redox homeostasis and is associated with abnormal cancer cell growth. Manganese superoxide dismutase (SOD2) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4) are two of the most important antioxidant defense enzymes that protect cells against oxidative stress. We had previously shown that n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) promote colonocyte apoptosis, a marker of colon cancer risk, in part by enhancing phospholipid oxidation. To elucidate the mechanisms regulating oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in vivo, we fed heterozygous SOD2(Het), Gpx4(Het), and transgenic Gpx4(Tg) mice diets containing either 15% corn oil by weight (CO, enriched in n-6 PUFA) or 3.5% CO + 11.5% fish oil (FO, enriched in n-3 PUFA) for 4 weeks. Our data showed that (i) genetic predeposition to oxidative stress facilitates apoptosis in the mouse colon (Gpx4(Het) &gt; SOD2(Het) &gt; Wt &gt; Gpx4(Tg)), (ii) dietary n-3 PUFA have an additive effect on the induction of apoptosis in Gpx4(Het) and SOD2(Het) mice; and (iii) dietary n-3 PUFA reverse the phenotype in oxidatively protected Gpx4(Tg) mice by elevating apoptosis to a level observed in wild-type (Wt; control) animals. Complimentary experiments examining colonic mitochondrial bioenergetic profiles indicate that FO-fed mice exhibit a significantly (P &lt; 0.05) increased respiration-induced proton leak relative to control CO treatment. This finding was consistent with a loss of membrane potential in response to chronic oxidative stress and supports the contention that n-3 PUFA alter mitochondrial metabolic activity, thereby enhancing apoptosis and reducing colon cancer risk.

    The regulation of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) late gene expression by viral proteins is poorly understood, and these viral proteins could be targets for novel antivirals. HCMV open reading frames (ORFs) UL79, -87, and -95 encode proteins with homology to late gene transcription factors of murine gammaherpesvirus 68 ORFs 18, 24, and 34, respectively. To determine whether these HCMV proteins are also essential for late gene transcription of a betaherpesvirus, we mutated HCMV ORFs UL79, -87, and -95. Cells were infected with the recombinant viruses at high and low multiplicities of infection (MOIs). While viral DNA was detected with the recombinant viruses, infectious virus was not detected unless the wild-type viral proteins were expressed in trans. At a high MOI, mutation of ORF UL79, -87, or -95 had no effect on the level of major immediate-early (MIE) gene expression or viral DNA replication, but late viral gene expression from the UL44, -75, and -99 ORFs was not detected. At a low MOI, preexpression of UL79 or -87, but not UL95, in human fibroblast cells negatively affected the level of MIE viral gene expression and viral DNA replication. The products of ORFs UL79, -87, and -95 were expressed as early viral proteins and recruited to prereplication complexes (pre-RCs), along with UL44, before the initiation of viral DNA replication. All three HCMV ORFs are indispensable for late viral gene expression and viral growth. The roles of UL79, -87, and -95 in pre-RCs for late viral gene expression are discussed.

    A total of 29 cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma initially manifesting in the bone marrow (BM-DLBCL) were analyzed for V-H gene sequence, and expression microarray of chemokines and chemokine receptors and immunohistochemical analysis were done. Seminested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing analyses of 18 cases revealed that the V-H gene usage in 6 cases was restricted to V(H)3-7, in 3 cases to V(H)4-34, and in 2 cases to V(H)4-39, which were all previously reported to be autoreactive. In total, 14 of 18 V-H genes were those associated with autoimmune diseases, including V(H)3-21, V(H)3-23, and V(H)3-48. Furthermore, cDNA microarray analysis specific for chemokine and chemokine receptors revealed that chemokine receptor XCR1 expression was significantly elevated in the BM-DLBCL cases (P &lt; .05), which was confirmed by quantitative reverse transcriptase PCR and immunohistochemical analysis. Expression of the chemokine receptor XCR1 and frequent usage of autoreactive V-H genes seem to be distinct characteristics of BM-DLBCL.

    Iron is essential for the survival of mammals, but iron overload causes fibrosis and carcinogenesis. Reduced iron absorption and regulated release into circulation in duodenal mucosa constitute two major mechanisms of protection against dietary iron overload; however, their relative contribution remains elusive. To study the significance of the former process, we generated SLC11A2 transgenic mice (TGs) under the control of the chicken beta-actin promoter. TGs were viable and fertile, and displayed no overt abnormalities up to 20 months. No significant difference in iron concentration was observed in major solid organs between TGs and their wild-type littermates, suggesting that increased number of iron transporters does not lead to increased iron absorption. To test the sensitivity to iron overload, TGs and wild-type mice were fed with an iron-rich diet containing 2% ferric citrate. Iron supplementation caused suppression of endogenous duodenal SLC11A2 expression, down-regulation of duodenal ferroportin, and overexpression of hepatic hepcidin, precluding excessive iron uptake both in the TGs and wild-type mice. However, iron-treated TGs revealed increased mortality, resulting from oxidative mucosal damage leading to hemorrhagic erosion throughout the whole intestinal area. These findings suggest that reduced iron release from duodenal cells into circulation plays a role in mitigating excessive iron uptake from the diet and that finely regulated duodenal absorption is essential to protect intestinal mucosa from iron-induced oxidative damage.

    trans-2-Nonenal is an unsaturated aldehyde with an unpleasant greasy and grassy odor endogenously generated during the peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. 2-Nonenal covalently modified human serum albumin through a reaction in which the aldehyde preferentially reacted with the lysine residues. Modified proteins were immunogenic, and a specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) 27Q4 that cross-reacted with the protein covalently modified with 2-nonenal was raised from mouse. To verify the presence of the protein-bound 2-nonenal in vivo, the mAb 27Q4 against the 2-nonenal-modified keyhole limpet hemocyanin was raised. It was found that a novel 2-nonenal-lysine adduct, cis- and trans-N(epsilon)-3-[(hept-1-enyl)-4-hexyl-pyridinium]lysine (HHP-lysine), constitutes an epitope of the antibody. The immunoreactive materials with mAb 27Q4 were detected in the kidney of rats exposed to ferric nitrilotriacetate, an iron chelate that induces free radical-mediated oxidative tissue damage. Using high performance liquid chromatography with on-line electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry, we also established a highly sensitive method for detection of the cis- and trans-HHP-lysine and confirmed that the 2-nonenal-lysine adducts were indeed formed during the lipid peroxidation-mediated modification of protein in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, we examined the involvement of the scavenger receptor lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor-1 in the recognition of 2-nonenal-modified proteins and established that the receptor recognized the HHP-lysine adducts as a ligand.

    While the molecular mechanisms underlying microsatellite instability (MSI) have been exhaustively investigated, identifying the patterns of MSI distribution within diverse cancer genomes has remained an elusive issue. In the present study, we conducted genome-wide MSI screening in B-cell lymphoblastic lymphomas (B-LBL) which spontaneously develop in the SL/Kh strain of mice. Tumor samples harvested from 16 mice were investigated using a framework map consisting of 150 microsatellite markers spaced at increments of roughly 0.5-3.0 centimorgans, spanning the entirety of mouse chromosomes (mus musculus chromosomes [MMU]) 3-6. MMU3 contains a quantitative trait locus (QTL), Bomb1 (bone marrow pre-B1), known to induce an aberrant expansion of pre-B cells in bone marrow prior to the onset of B-LBL in SL/Kh mice. The remaining chromosomes were selected on the basis of those most closely resembling MMU3 in terms of total estimated length (maximum variance 10 Mb). MSI was confirmed at 2 &lt;= markers in DNA derived from tumor tissues in 15 SL/Kh mice (93.7%), while healthy splenic DNA samples screened in parallel were consistently negative for MSI. The overall MSI incidence was significantly higher on MMU3 compared with MMU4-6 (P = 0.031). Additionally, by applying spatial point pattern analysis combined with a 1-D version of Ripley&apos;s K-function, we successfully demonstrated the predilection of MSI-susceptible loci to structure a massive cluster within the Bomb1 locus. Our study is the first to suggest that a QTL concomitantly serves as a hotspot for MSI-susceptible loci and sheds new light on somatic cancer genetics. (Cancer Sci 2010; 101: 800-805)

    Inosine triphosphate pyrophosphatase (ITPase), the enzyme that hydrolyzes ITP and other deaminated purine nucleoside triphosphates to the corresponding purine nucleoside monophosphate and pyrophosphate, is encoded by the Itpa gene. In this study, we established Itpa knockout (KO) mice and used them to show that ITPase is required for the normal organization of sarcomeres in the heart. Itpa(-/-) mice died about 2 weeks after birth with features of growth retardation and cardiac myofiber disarray, similar to the phenotype of the cardiac alpha-actin KO mouse. Inosine nucleotides were found to accumulate in both the nucleotide pool and RNA of Itpa(-/-) mice. These data suggest that the role of ITPase in mice is to exclude ITP from the ATP pool, and the main target substrate of this enzyme is rITP. Our data also suggest that cardiomyopathy, which is mainly caused by mutations in sarcomeric protein-encoding genes, is also caused by a defect in maintaining the quality of the ATP pool, which is an essential requirement for sarcomere function.

    慢性的な酸化ストレス状態による生体分子への酸化的な傷害の蓄積が、発癌を誘発する一因と考えられている。これまでフリーラジカルによる傷害に選択性は存在しないと考えられてきた。しかし、われわれが確立した酸化ストレス誘発発癌モデルにおいて、癌抑制遺伝子として知られるp16INK4A遺伝子座では欠失とプロモーター領域のメチル化が高頻度に認められ、1つの標的遺伝子となっていることが判明した。フリーラジカルに対して脆弱なゲノム領域の解明という新たな切り口で酸化ストレス誘発発癌機構を眺めることで、その予防・治療法の開発に新たなコンセプトを提示できるだろう。(著者抄録)

    The health promoting effects of a grapevine-shoot extract named Vineatrol (R) 30, which contains resveratrol (Resv) as well as considerable amounts of Resv oligomers, have recently been investigated. In the present study, we analyzed the free radical scavenging capacity, the ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation, and the capacity to enhance the human glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPx) and the human superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD) gene promoter activities of Vineatrol (R) 30. Vineatrol (R) 30 was able to scavenge the 2,2'-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid radical cation and led to concentration-dependent inhibition of lipid peroxidation, Vineatrol (R) 30 not being superior to Resv alone in both cases. Vineatrol (R) 30 also enhanced the gene promoter activities of human GPx and SOD expressed in V79 cells, whereas this effect could not be demonstrated for Resv. In summary, the results presented in this study show that the Vineatrol (R) 30 grapevine-shoot extract is a free radical scavenger and potent antioxidant at non-eytotoxic concentrations.

    Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) undergo self-renewal division and support spermatogenesis. Although several cytokines coordinate to drive SSC self-renewal, little is known about the mechanisms underlying this process. We investigated the molecular mechanism by reconstructing SSC self-renewal in vitro without exogenous cytokines. Activation of Ras or overexpression of cyclins D2 and E1, both of which were induced by Ras; enabled long-term self-renewal of cultured spermatogonia. SSCs with activated Ras responded properly to differentiation signals and underwent spermatogenesis, whereas differentiation was abrogated in cyclin transfectants after spermatogonial transplantation. Both Ras- and cyclin-transfected cells produced seminomatous tumors, suggesting that excessive self-renewing stimulus induces oncogenic transformation. In contrast, cells that overexpressed cyclin D1 or D3 failed to make germ cell colonies after transplantation, which indicated that cyclin expression pattern is an important determinant to long-term SSC recolonization. Thus, the Ras-cyclin D2 pathway regulates the balance between tissue maintenance and tumorigenesis in the SSC population.

    Although spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are committed to spermatogenesis, they may also convert to an embryonic stem cell-like pluripotent state at a low frequency. Because changes in DNA methylation patterns are associated with this conversion, we examined the effect of manipulating DNA methyltransferase (Dnmt) expression on the fate of cultured SSCs, germline stem (GS) cells. Dnmt1 knockdown induced apoptosis in GS cells, which was attenuated by the loss of Trp53. In contrast, GS cells proliferated normally in vitro after Dnmt3a/Dnmt3b ablation or during Dnmt3l overexpression. However, Dnmt3a/Dnmt3b double-mutant cells showed hypomethylation in the SineB1 repetitive sequence, and Dnmt3l-overexpressing cells showed hypermethylation in major and minor satellite sequences; neither cell type formed teratomas and completed spermatogenesis following transplantation into the seminiferous tubules. Although genetic manipulation did not increase the conversion of GS cells to a pluripotent state, these results underscore the important role of DNMTs in survival and spermatogenic differentiation in SSCs.

    Cardioplegic arrest has been the main mechanism of myocardial protection during open-heart surgery; however, it causes myocardial injury during ischemia-reperfusion. Free radical scavengers are widely known to attenuate ischemia-reperfusion injury in various settings. We investigated the effects of edaravone, a novel free radical scavenger that was originally used for cerebral protection, on myocardial function during ischemia-reperfusion after cardioplegic arrest. Rat hearts were excised and perfused using Langendorff apparatus. The hearts were cardioplegically arrested for 90 min using St. Thomas' Hospital cardioplegic solution (ST solution) at 4A degrees C every 45 min and then reperfused for 20 min. The hearts were divided into 4 groups (n = 13 in each group). In Group ST, the hearts were arrested using the ST solution alone. In Groups L, M, and H, the hearts were arrested using the ST solution supplemented with a low-dose (1 mu M), moderate dose (10 mu M), and high dose (100 mu M) of edaravone, respectively. Left ventricular function (+dp/dt (max)) and the levels of the cardiac enzymes released were measured before and after cardioplegic arrest. At the end of the study, the water content and the tissue oxidative stress (8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine) of the heart were measured. During reperfusion, the edaravone-treated groups showed a greater functional recovery with regard to the +dp/dt (max) (P &lt; 0.05). The lactate level was the lowest (P &lt; 0.01) in Group M. The water content of the hearts in the edaravone-treated groups was significantly lower (P &lt; 0.05) than that in Group ST. Oxidative stress was significantly lower (P &lt; 0.01) in the edaravone-treated hearts than in Group ST, and it was the lowest in Group M. The addition of edaravone to the cardioplegic solution ameliorates the impairment in myocardial function by reducing the oxidative stress after cardioplegic arrest. In this study, the maximum improvement in the myocardial function was achieved by addition of a moderate dose (10 mu M) of edaravone.

First published January 9, 2009; doi:10.1152/ajpheart.00774.2008.-Although granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) reportedly plays a cardioprotective role in several models of cardiac injury, clinical use of this drug in cardiac patients has been controversial. Here, we tested, in vivo and in vitro, the effect of G-CSF on cardiac mitochondria, which play a key role in determining cardiac cellular fate and function. Mild stimulation of C57/BL6 mice with doxorubicin (Dox) did not induce cardiac apoptosis or fibrosis but did induce damage to mitochondrial organization of the myocardium as observed through an electron microscope. Cardiac catheterization and echocardiography revealed that Dox did not alter cardiac systolic function or left ventricular size but did reduce diastolic function, an early sign of cardiac damage. Treatment with G-CSF attenuated significantly the damage to mitochondrial organization and rescued diastolic function. In an in vitro model for rat neonatal cardiomyocytes, a subapoptotic dose of Dox induced severe mitochondrial damage, including marked swelling of the cardiac mitochondria and/or decreased mitochondrial membrane potential. These mitochondrial changes were completely blocked by pretreatment with G-CSF. In addition, G-CSF dramatically improved ATP generation, which rescued Dox-impaired mitochondrial electron transport and oxygen consumption mainly through complex IV. These findings clearly indicate that G-CSF protects cardiac mitochondria, which are key organelles in the determination of cardiac cellular fate, in the early phase of cardiac injury.

    酸化ストレスには種々の病態が存在するが、ほとんどの場合、鉄の関与が想定されている。鉄はヒトにおいて最も多く含まれる重金属である。隕石の成分分析より宇宙には鉄が豊富にあると考えられているが、私たちは進化の過程で酸素の運搬体として鉄を選択した。鉄は、不足すると貧血や筋肉の機能障害をひき起こすが、逆に過剰は種々の実質臓器に傷害を与えるだけでなく発がんのリスクとなることが明らかにされている。鉄吸収が増加する遺伝性疾患のヘモクロマトーシスでは肝癌発生リスクが著しく増加する。昨今、社会的問題となっているアスベストによる中皮腫も、鉄含有量の高いアスベストの発がん性が高いとされている。なぜ鉄が発がんと関連するかに関しては、鉄が遷移金属であり、酸化還元反応の触媒として作用し酸化ストレスを引き起こすこと、ならびに、鉄が多数の酵素の活性部位に含まれており、必須栄養素のひとつでもあるという2つの側面がある。酸化ストレスの発がん機構への関与について最近多くの新事実がわかってきた。鉄はヒトの体質に関しても重要な役割を果たしていると考えられ、コントロールが可能な因子である。年齢に応じた適切なコントロールにより、種々の生活習慣病を遅延できる可能性が示唆される。(著者抄録)

    Respiratory exposure to asbestos fibers has been associated with diffuse malignant mesothelioma (DMM) in humans. Despite advancements in the molecular analyses of human DMM and the development of animal models, the carcinogenic mechanisms of the disease remain unclear. There are basically three hypotheses regarding the pathogenesis of asbestos-induced DMM, which may be summarized as follows: (1) the "oxidative stress theory" is based on the fact that phagocytic cells that engulf asbestos fibers produce large amounts of free radicals due to their inability to digest the fibers, and epidemiological studies indicating that iron-containing asbestos fibers appear more carcinogenic; (2) the "chromosome tangling theory" postulates that asbestos fibers damage chromosomes when cells divide; and (3) the "theory of adsorption of many specific proteins as well as carcinogenic molecules" states that asbestos fibers in vivo concentrate proteins or chemicals including the components of cigarette smoke. Elucidation of the major mechanisms underlying DMM would be helpful for the development of novel strategies to prevent DMM induction in people who have already been exposed to asbestos.

    A growing number of studies indicate a link between oxidative stress and cancer. We previously developed a rat model of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) induced by ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA). Here, we performed a genome-wide analysis to study characteristics of genomic alteration and identify putative genes involved in the development of Fe-NTA-induced RCCs. Array-based comparative genomic hybridization analyses revealed a chromosomal loss spanning chromosome 8 in most of the RCCs studied, with a common deletion at 8q31-32, which was confirmed by loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis. Studies of gene expression in RCCs or following Fe-NTA treatment revealed globally decreased transcription levels of 34 genes derived from chromosome 8 that are expressed in the kidney. Among them, the aminoacylase 1 (Acy1) gene, which maps to 8q32 and is highly expressed in the kidney, displayed a significantly decreased level of expression in RCCs. Significant amounts of the Acy1 protein were detected in the cytoplasm as well as in the nuclei of renal proximal tubular cells of untreated rats. Transfection of Acy1 into RCC cell lines inhibited proliferation and colony formation on soft agar. An increased number of apoptotic cells were observed following Acy1 transfection. The rat 8q31-32 chromosomal region corresponds to human 3p21.31-24.1, a hot spot where LOH is frequently found in various human cancers. Thus, Fe-NTA-induced renal tumor model is ideal for studying the link between deletions within this region and tumor formation. Our data demonstrate that Acy1 functions as a tumor suppressor in this rat RCC model.

    A growing number of studies indicate a link between oxidative stress and cancer. We previously developed a rat model of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) induced by ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA). Here, we performed a genome-wide analysis to study characteristics of genomic alteration and identify putative genes involved in the development of Fe-NTA-induced RCCs. Array-based comparative genomic hybridization analyses revealed a chromosomal loss spanning chromosome 8 in most of the RCCs studied, with a common deletion at 8q31-32, which was confirmed by loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis. Studies of gene expression in RCCs or following Fe-NTA treatment revealed globally decreased transcription levels of 34 genes derived from chromosome 8 that are expressed in the kidney. Among them, the aminoacylase 1 (Acy1) gene, which maps to 8q32 and is highly expressed in the kidney, displayed a significantly decreased level of expression in RCCs. Significant amounts of the Acy1 protein were detected in the cytoplasm as well as in the nuclei of renal proximal tubular cells of untreated rats. Transfection of Acy1 into RCC cell lines inhibited proliferation and colony formation on soft agar. An increased number of apoptotic cells were observed following Acy1 transfection. The rat 8q31-32 chromosomal region corresponds to human 3p21.31-24.1, a hot spot where LOH is frequently found in various human cancers. Thus, Fe-NTA-induced renal tumor model is ideal for studying the link between deletions within this region and tumor formation. Our data demonstrate that Acy1 functions as a tumor suppressor in this rat RCC model. © The Author 2008. Published by Oxford University Press. All rights reserved.

    Respiratory exposure to asbestos has been linked with mesothelioma in humans. However, its carcinogenic mechanism is still unclear. Here we studied the ability of chrysotile, crocidolite and amosite fibers to induce oxidative DNA damage and the modifying factors using four distinct approaches. Electron spin resonance analyses revealed that crocidolite and amosite containing high amounts of iron, but not chrysotile, catalyzed hydroxyl radical generation in the presence of H(2)O(2), which was enhanced by an iron chelator, nitrilotriacetic acid, and suppressed by desferal. Natural iron chelators, such as citrate, adenosine 5&apos;-triphosphate and guanosine 5&apos;-triphosphate, did not inhibit this reaction. Second, we used time-lapse video microscopy to evaluate how cells cope with asbestos fibers. RAW264.7 cells, MeT-5 A and HeLa cells engulfed asbestos fibers, which reached not only cytoplasm but also the nucleus. Third, we utilized supercoiled plasmid DNA to evaluate the ability of each asbestos to induce DNA double strand breaks (DSB). Crocidolite and amosite, but not chrysotile, induced DNA DSB in the presence of iron chelators. We cloned the fragments to identify break sites. DSB occurred preferentially within repeat sequences and between two G:C sequences. Finally, i.p. administration of each asbestos to rats induced not only formation of nuclear 8-hydroxy-2&apos;-deoxyguanosine in the mesothelia, spleen, liver and kidney but also significant iron deposits in the spleen. Together with the established carcinogenicity of i.p. chrysotile, our data suggest that asbestos-associated catalytic iron, whether constitutional or induced by other mechanisms, plays an important role in asbestos-induced carcinogenesis and that chemoprevention may be possible through targeting the catalytic iron.

    Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase (TK) inhibitors are promising therapeutic agents for Bcr-Abl-positive (Bcr-Abl(+)) leukemias. Although they are known to promote caspase-mediated apoptosis, it remains unclear whether caspase-independent cell death-inducing mechanisms are also triggered. Here we demonstrated that INNO-406, a second-generation Bcr-Abl TK inhibitor, induces programmed cell death (PCD) in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) cell lines through both caspase-mediated and caspase-independent pathways. The latter pathways include caspase-independent apoptosis ( CIA) and necrosis-like cell death (CIND), and the cell lines varied regarding which mechanism was elicited upon INNO-406 treatment. We also observed that the propensity toward CIA or CIND in cells was strongly associated with cellular dependency on apoptosome-mediated caspase activity. Cells that undergo CIND have a high apoptosome activity potential whereas cells that undergo CIA tend to have a lower potential. Moreover, we found that INNO-406 promotes autophagy. When autophagy was inhibited with chloroquine or gene knockdown of beclin1 by shRNA, INNO-406-induced cell death was enhanced, which indicates that the autophagic response of the tumor cells is protective. These findings suggest new insights into the biology and therapy of Bcr-Abl(+) leukemias.

    SMXA・RI系統群の解析でマップされた2つの肺腫瘍感受性遺伝子座Par1(Chr.11)とPar3(Chr.12)の存在は、マップ領域を導入したコンジェニック系統では確認できなかった。そのため、Chr.11コンジェニック系統群で肺腫瘍感受性遺伝子座を再解析した結果、先のマップ領域とは異なりChr.11の27.7~36.4Mb内に目的の遺伝子座の存在が示唆された。ここにはヒトの肺腫瘍発症への関与が報告されているMpg遺伝子が存在しており、A/J系統のMpg遺伝子内の5つのアミノ酸置換を伴う変異のうち特にp.Ala132Ser変異がウレタン誘発肺腫瘍感受性の有力な原因であると考えられた。

    ゲノム情報の変化は発がん過程で重要な役割を果たしている。本研究においては、培養細胞や個体各臓器の細胞のゲノム配列において、紫外線・放射線あるいは鉄を介した酸化ストレスによってDNA塩基への傷害が起こりやすい部位をアレイ技術の応用により網羅的に同定し、その法則性を見いだすことを目的とした。これまでに、私たちは鉄ニトリロ三酢酸(Fe-NTA)腹腔内投与による腎発がんモデルを開発し、その病態に酸化ストレスが関与すること、主要な標的遺伝子にCDKN2Aがん抑制遺伝子やptprz1遺伝子などがあることを示し、ゲノムに酸化ストレスに対して欠損・増幅しやすい領域があることを報告した。今年度は遺伝解析より新たにalninoacylase-1にがん抑制遺伝子としての作用があることを見いだした。昨年度に引き続き、モノクローナル抗体で修飾塩基を含むDNA断片を免疫沈降する技術とマイクロアレイ技術を組み合わせることにより、ゲノム内の酸化ストレスに対する脆弱部位を網羅的に解析した。Fe-NTA腹腔内投与による腎癌モデル初期において代表的な酸化修飾塩基である8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine(8-OHdG)に対するモノクローナル抗体を使用した実験を反復した。対照のラット腎臓ならびにFe-NTA投与3時間後の腎臓からゲノムDNAを抽出し、制限酵素BmgT120Iで切断後,DNA断片の免疫沈降を行い,8-OHdGを含むDNA断片を回収した。DNA断片を蛍光色素でラベルした後CCGHのアレイにハイブリダイゼーションし解析を行った。すると、8-OHdGは非遺伝子領域に高密度に分布し、遺伝子領域には相対的に低密度に分布することが判明した。ゲノムの遺伝子密度と8-OHdGの存在頻度に有意な負の相関を認めた。分布のパターンそのものは対照と酸化ストレスのかかった状態でほとんど差が見られなかった。CDKN2A部位では酸化ストレス時に8-OHdGの増加を認めた。

    制限酵素で断片化したゲノムDNAを用いて、特定の修飾塩基を含む断片を特異的に免疫沈降する方法の開発を行った。酸化ストレスにより生成する修飾塩基として、8-hydroxy(oxo)guanine, acrolein-modified adenine, thymine glycolを選出し、それぞれ特異性を確認したモノクローナル抗体を使用した。二本鎖オリゴDNAで修飾塩基をひとつ含む断片を作成し、システムが稼働することを確認した。次に制限酵素で切断したゲノムDNAを使用し、負荷DNA量・修飾塩基の含量と正の量依存性があることを確認した。マウスに鉄キレート化合物を投与し、酸化ストレス傷害を起こした腎臓を使用して以下の実験を行った。対照として、未処置動物腎臓を使用し、ゲノムに存在する8-hydroxyguanineの除去修復を行う酵素OGG1のノックアウト動物も使用した。酸化ストレスを与えると、免疫沈降されたDNA断片量は8-hydroxyguanine, acrolein-modified adenineに関して有意に増加した。回収DNA断片をライブラリーとみなしてクローニングし、未処置コントロール群と酸化ストレス群の両修飾塩基について、各群約300クローンの塩基配列決定を行い、データベースで染色体上の位置を確認し、マッピングを行った。染色体分布に関して検討すると、各群において有意に高頻度・低頻度を示す染色体が存在した。特に、8-hydroxyguanine/controlで多い16番染色体とacrolein-modifiedadenine/oxidative stressで多い15番染色体に注目した。ペインティング・プローブを使用してFISH解析を行うと、15番は核膜の近傍に、16番は核中心部に存在する確率の高いことが判明した。また、ヒト線維芽細胞を使用し紫外線を照射する系においても、thymine glycolに関して同様の方法論の有効性を確認した。また、本法の応用として、免疫沈降したDNA断片を増幅し、注目するゲノム領域でPCR解析ができるプロトコールも開発した。結論として、今回検討したDNA修飾塩基のゲノム内分布はランダムではないことが判明し、新たな血清検査法への基礎となるデータを得ることが出来た。

    新たに開発したDNA断片の免疫沈降法により、酸化ストレスによるゲノムDNA傷害部位がランダムではないことを、ラット鉄ニトリロ三酢酸誘発腎癌モデルを使用して初めて明らかにした。その片寄りを決定する要素は、当該ゲノム部位が遺伝子か否か、その発現量、核内位置(染色体領域)、反応化学種などが想定された。gpt delta transgenic mouseを使用して、酸化ストレス発がんにおける変異スペクトラムを評価した。点突然変異はG:Cを標的とするもの(特にG:C to C:G)が多いことが判明し、1kb以上の欠損を比較的高頻度に認めた。この傾向は放射線や紫外線と異なり、正常の大腸粘膜に類似していた。鉄ニトリロ三酢酸誘発腎癌においてCGH解析を行い、動物モデルとしては初めて、共通した領域で高頻度のアレル損失や、染色体領域の増幅を認めた。ほとんどアレル増減のないEkerラット腎癌や他の発癌モデルと対照を呈した。この結果は染色体レベルの異常が高頻度に見られるヒトの発がんにおいても酸化ストレスが関与していることを示唆する。ヒトの染色体座標ヘデータを変換し種々のヒト癌のデータと比較検討も試みた。更に、アレイCGHと発現マイクロアレイの データから、本発癌モデルにおいて増幅する癌遺伝子を同定した。染色体全領域の中で、ラット染色体4番短腕(ヒト染色体7番)で高頻度の遺伝子増幅を認め、その部位に存在するptprzlに着目し た。これまで、phosphataseは癌抑制遺伝子とみなされる場合が多かったが、今回は転写因子であるβカテニンが分解されないよう核への移行を促進する癌遺伝子としての新たなメカニズムを解明した。

    我々は、遺伝的負荷のとして家族性脳動脈瘤、家族性もやもや病および家族性の脳動静脈奇形(AVM)について昨年に引き続き検討した。
    1)家族性脳動脈瘤に関する研究:3世代にわたり罹患の証明できる9家系に常染色体優性遺伝形式を仮定し連鎖解析を行なった。その結果19q13.3-19q13.4に、LOD=4.10(HLOD=4.10)連鎖領域を確認した。この領域は、我々が既に報告した領域と一致する。今後、この領域を候補とし候補遺伝子の解析を進める。また、平成18年度には、平成13年に登録した69名の追跡を行い、そのうちSAH発症者を除く46名(未破裂脳動脈瘤5名、前回に脳動脈瘤なし41名)に呼びかけたところ、新規参加者7名と、不参加の6名を除く40名がMRAに参加した。前回なしの36名のうち2名に新たに脳動脈瘤が見出された。今後も引き続き追跡を続ける予定である。
    2)家族性もやもや病:15家系を用いて、affected-member-onlyによるパラメトリック解析を行ったところ、有意な連鎖領域は1領域(LOD>3.6)のみであり、17q25に、LOD Score8.08の強い連鎖領域を認めた。この領域には90遺伝子が存在し、pseudogeneおよびhypothetical geneを除いた62の遺伝子について解析を進めている。
    3)家族性AVM:家族性AVM6家系およびAVMの高発性地域である岐阜県内のT市で症例26例および対照30例の協力を得て行なった。またこの地域から、2組のdiscordant identical twinsが参加した。家系を用いた連鎖の候補領域(p<0.05)と多発地域での相関研究での候補領域(p<5X10-6)の重なりは認められなかった。また、discordant identical twinsの2組を50Kの高密度SNPsでタイピングしたところ、配列の欠失、重複などは認められなかった。

    鉄ニトリロ三酢酸(Fe-NTA)腹腔内投与によるラット腎発がんは、転移が高頻度におこること,発がん過程でフリーラジカルによる組織傷害を伴うことに特徴を有する酸化ストレス発がんモデルである。ヒトの発がん過程においても酸化ストレスが炎症,放射線,紫外線など多面的に関わっていると考えられることから、この発がんモデルの詳細な解析を施行した。まず、Fischer344系統とBrown-Norway系統のラットをかけあわせ,F1動物を作成した。そのF1動物の雄にFe-NTAを腹腔内に3ヶ月に渡り投与し、その後1年以上経過観察することにより、50例以上の腎臓癌サンプルを収集した。これまでのマイクロサテライト解析により、ラット染色体5番と8番にアレル揖失が高頻度に発生することが判明していたため、染色体8番について解析を進めた。2系統でpolymorphicな34のマイクロサテライトマーカーを使用して、22の腫瘍についてアレル損失の解析を行った。染色体8番全体に高いアレル損失を認めたが、その中でも70%を越える高率の部位に関して、腎癌のcDNAマイクロアレイ解析による発現が有意に減少する遺伝子を検索した。今回,aminoacylase-1を新たながん抑制遺伝子の候補として見出した。これをRNA,蛋白レベルで確認した。細胞内画分を用意し,この蛋白が細胞のどの部分に存在するのかを検索した。核画分のみにおいてこの蛋白と結合する低分子蛋白の4本の強いバンドが出現した。これを切り抜きマススペクトロメトリーで同定すると、すべてヒストン蛋白であった。また,gpt deltaトランスジェニックマウスを使用して腎臓におけるFe-NTAの変異パタンの解析を行った。G : Cへの点突然変異ならびに1kb以上の欠損が高頻度に起こることが判明した。

    哺乳類を含む高等動物は酸素をエネルギーに変換して生命活動を行っている。その変換効率は100%ではないため、ミトコンドリアなどで活性酸素が常時発生し、ゲノムに傷害を与えていると考えられる。これまで代表的なDNA修飾塩基である8-oxoguanineに関して、その量の多寡ならびに修復酵素の研究が行われてきた。本研究においては、脂質過酸化物のひとつであるアクロレインと2'-deoxyadenosineの付加体について、ゲノムのどのような部位でできるのかを解析するのを目指して、今年度の6ヶ月に間に方法の確立を図った。これまで、私たちはアクロレインと2'-deoxyadenosineの付加体に対するマウスモノクローナル抗体を共同で開発し、酸化ストレスによる発癌モデルである鉄ニトリロ三酢酸誘発ラット腎発癌モデルに置いて、この付加体が増加していることを確認した。この結果をもとに、ゲノムDNAの免疫沈降の実用化を検討した。ラット腎臓より、ゲノムDNAはよう化ナトリウム法で抽出し、制限酵素処理により平均的1000bpの断片とした。添加DNA量、抗体量、反応時間、洗浄バッファー組成、プロテインAセファロースあるいは2次抗体付加磁気ビーズ量などに関して詳細な検討を行い、最適な条件を見出した。この条件で、免疫沈降を行うと鉄ニトリロ三酢酸投与6時間の腎臓のゲノムDNAにおいて、免疫沈降されるDNA量が有意義に高いことが判明した。
    平成15年度の6ヶ月間において、DNAの免疫沈降の条件の最適化を行うことが出来た。平成16年度においては、この条件を使用してデータの収集を推進した。動物モデルとして、酸化ストレス発がんモデルとして確立された鉄ニトリロ三酢酸をマウスの腹腔内に投与する方法を使用した。コントロールおよび投与後6時間のサンプルを採取し、酸化を起こさない条件でゲノムDNAを抽出後、制限酵素処理で断片として、抗アクロレインデオキシアデノシン付加体(ADA)モノクローナル抗体を使用して免疫沈降を行った。各条件について動物3匹、動物1匹に関して100クローン以上をそれぞれシークエンスし、セレラあるいは公共のデータベースと照合することにより、当該クローンの染色体位置、最も近い遺伝子からの距離などに関して詳細に解析した。鉄ニトリロ三酢酸の投与によりADAは有意に増加した。ADAの生成した各染色体の頻度はほぼ染色体のゲノムの長さに比例したものの、全染色体に予想される頻度に関して、カイ2乗検定を行うと、コント

    レンズは解剖学的に簡素な構造ながら、多数の遺伝子群が働いてその発達、光学的特性を維持している。遺伝的カタラクトはレンズの分子解剖を行う上で有力なツールである。松島らが発見したRupture of lens cataract (RLC)はマウスの劣性単一変異遺伝子による遺伝的カタラクトで、生後35日ころからレンズ後縫合のレンズ線維末端部の変性により、線維相互間あるいは線維・カプセル間の結合が失われる結果、レンズの破綻がおこるものである。我々はRLCと野生マウス由来近交系MOMの交配系を遺伝解析し第14染色体の約28.5cMの位置に遺伝子座rlcをマップした。当研究室では理化学研究所林崎研究室と協力し、この遺伝子の本体の検索を行い、これが細胞内シグナル伝達分子DOCK180の9アミノ酸の欠損によるものであることを確定した。ミュータント形質はcrystallin promoterをつないだDock1 cDNAを導入したトランスジェニックマウスを作成することによりレスキューされることを確認した。この欠損はDOCK180下流のRac1の活性化を低下させることにより、細胞接着シグナル細胞骨格系に伝える経路に機能不全をおこす。この結果、発達しつつあるレンズの内部応力に耐えることができず、レンズの破綻をきたすものと考えられた。RLCにみられる分子構造の異常はこれまで全く記載がなく、レンズの生理機能を明らかにするのみならず、DOCK180の生理的機能についても新しい光をあてるものである。

    鉄ニトリロ三酢酸(Fe-NTA)をラットに腹腔内に反復投与すると、高率に腎癌が発生する。この発癌過程では鉄を介したフェントン反応が関与していること、癌の悪性度が高いことが特徴である。このモデルでDifferential Displayによるスクリーニングで得られたAnnexin 2(Anx2)の役割について動物モデル・試験管内の実験で詳細な検討を行い、次にヒトの癌の予後判定に役立つかどうかを手術標本を使用して検討した。ラット腎正常近位尿細管でAnx2蛋白を検出しなかったが、Fe-NTA投与6時間より、残存尿細管で高い発現を検出した。Fe-NTA反復投与後3週間ではkaryomegalic cellの胞体・核に集積を認め、腫瘍では主に細胞表面に陽性像を認めた。Anx2はSerとTyr残基がリン酸化され、リン酸化されたactinと共沈した。転移例の原発巣において高発現を認めた。高発現性Fe-NTA誘発腎がん由来細胞株にanti-sense投与するとapoptosisを起した。LLC-PK1ブタ尿細管細胞に過酸化水素により酸化ストレスをかけると発現が増加し、この誘導は抗酸化剤で抑制された。Anx2はがん遺伝子srcの基質として発見されたが、各種kinaseの基質でもあり、さらに線溶系分子の細胞表面受容体などの役割を担う。今回の実験でAnx2がレドックス制御を受けることを初めて示した。Anx2は、レドックス制御・キナーゼ系・線溶系の要となり、promotion, progressionの過程で重要な役割を果たすと考えられた。更にこの結果を踏まえて、ヒト肺癌の予後の検討を行った。Anx2の発現の高い肺癌は予後の悪いことが判明した。

    鉄発癌モデルである鉄ニトリロ三酢酸(Fe-NTA)誘発ラット腎発癌でDifferential Displayによるスクリーニングで得られたAnnexin 2(Anx2)の役割について検討を行った。ラット腎正常近位尿細管でAnx2蛋白を検出しなかったが、Fe-NTA投与6時間より、残存尿細管で検出した。Fe-NTA反復投与後3週間ではkaryomegalic cellの胞体・核に集積を認め、腫瘍では主に細胞表面に陽性像を認めた。Anx2はSerとTyr残基においてリン酸化され、actinと共沈した。転移例の原発巣においては高発現を認めた。高発現性Fe-NTA誘発腎がん由来細胞株にanti-sense投与するとapoptosisを起した。LLC-PK1細胞に過酸化水素により酸化ストレスをかけると発現が増加し、この誘導は抗酸化剤で抑制された。Anx2はRous sarcoma virusのがん遺伝子srcの基質として発見されたが、各種kinaseの基質でもあり、さらに線溶系分子の細胞表面受容体などの役割を担う。今回の実験でAnx2がredox制御を受けることを初めて示した。Anx2は、レドックス制御・キナーゼ系・線溶系の要となり、promotion, progressionの過程で重要な役割を果たすと考えられた。更にこの結果を踏まえて、ヒト肺癌の予後の検討を行った。Anx2がひとつの予後因子となることが示された。また、PNAプローブで50年前に包埋されたパラフィン標本でmRNAを検出できることが明かにした。さらに、微量マイクロウェーブ照射装置を使用した方法で、ブロッキング後1時間以内に結果のでるウェスタンブロット法を開発した。生体肝移植に置いてもフリーラジカルによる肝傷害は重要である。今回、ABO血液型不適合輸血に置ける病理診断基準を症例解析により決定した。

    心筋梗塞後の心不全に関して再灌流障害の関与が指摘されておりその際の酸化ストレスの影響が考えられるがその詳細は報告されていない。とくに時間的、空間的な変移については未だ明らかではない。本研究は心筋虚血再灌流時の酸化障害の免疫病理的・定量的評価を行っている。
    平成13年度は心筋梗塞およびそれに引き続いておこるリモデリング、虚血性心筋症において酸化ストレスの時間空間的変化を明らかにした。ランゲンドルフモデルにおいて、再灌流後の酸化傷害は再灌流直後より上昇し、20分灌流後も持続した。灌流後3分ですでに上昇していること、無血下の条件で上昇している事から、細胞内の酸化物質の活性化による障害が示唆された。
    平成14年度は、SDラット66匹に対して心筋梗塞を作成し、この心筋を梗塞後0、3、6、12、24、48時間1、2、4、6週間後に採取。免疫染色にて心筋酸化障害の局在を評価している。さらに高速液体クロマトグラフィー(HPLC)によって核DNA中の8-OHdGを定量し、アポトーシスの程度をTUNEL法にて評価した。免疫染色およびdG/8-OhdG比にて心筋梗塞部の8-OHdGは梗塞後6時間までは梗塞部に高く発現し、健常部は上昇しなかった。しかし12時間以後は梗塞部・周囲部で一度低下するが1週目を過ぎる頃から周囲部・健常部で上昇し、4週後でも周囲部には酸化障害が残存した。アポトーシスの程度は1週間程度まではあまり上昇しないが2週目から上昇しこの変化は心筋梗塞後の心機能の低下と相関があった。心筋梗塞後の酸化ストレスは2峰性の変化を示し1つ目が虚血による心壊死、2つ目がアポトーシスと関連した心機能不全を示していると考えられた。またこの手法は種々の心不全時の心筋細胞の評価に応用できる可能性が示唆された。

    1 トレハロースの指摘濃度の検討と再灌流障害の免疫病理学的検討。
    [方法]SDラット摘出心にたいして灌流法は20分の準備灌流後に上記の液用いて心停止。以後30分に一回追加しながら90虚血とし再灌流する。再灌流後の左心機能を収縮末期圧容積関係(ESPVR)と拡張末期圧容積関係(EDPVR)にて評価した。この際灌流液または灌流血液を肺動脈より採取し生化学的検査(CK・MBなど)を行うとともに心筋標本採取。8-0HdG免疫染色と高速液体クロマトグラフィーにて定量した。
    [結果]1 心筋保護効果の検討;グループA:セントトーマス液、グループB:3%トレハロース付加セントトーマス液の2群で比較検討した。(心収縮能の検討)再灌流後5分における収縮末期圧容量関係にて評価した。その結果トレハロース3%入りのセントトーマス液の方が収縮能をより保つことが示された。(心筋浮腫の程度に関する検討)心筋の浮腫を還流後の心筋重量増加率で比較した。結果トレハロース付加群で有為に浮腫を軽減した。また病理学的な細胞浮腫の検討でもトレハロース付加群で細胞浮腫の軽減される傾向を示した。以上のことからトレハロースは心筋保護液に付加する物質として有用である。
    2 至適濃度の検討
    4%の溶液においてその浸透圧は420前後と高く3%で380前後2%で340前後となる。この点から濃度は2%?3%が至適と考えられた。

    これまでのラットex vivo実験により、selectin blocker(KB-R9188改めOJ-R9188)が肺温虚血再潅流傷害を軽減することが明らかになったが、本年度はその作用機序を明らかにすべく、検討を行った。
    1、Myeloperoxidase(MPO)活性の測定
    ラットex vivo実験から得られた再潅流後肺の一部を用い、白血球組織浸潤の指標となるMPO活性を測定した。しかしその結果は、selectin blocker投与群、非投与群間に有意差を認めなかった。
    2、抗酸化作用機序の検討
    (1)直接的抗酸化作用
    Electron Spin Resonance(ESR)法を用い、OJ-R9188がhydroxyl radicalやsuperoxideに対するradical scavengerとして作用するか否かを検討した。実際には、種々の濃度のOJ-R9188にspin trapping試薬を添加し、ESR spectrometerで抗酸化作用を測定した。
    その結果、OJ-R9188に直接的抗酸化作用は認められなかった。
    (2)一酸化窒素(NO)を介した抗酸化作用
    ラットex vivo実験から得られた再潅流後肺の一部を摘出し、ピクリン酸で固定後スライド標本を作製した。ABC法に準じて3-nitro-L-tyrosine(3-NT)に対するポリクロナル抗体を用い、免疫染色を行い、評価した。その結果、selectin blocker投与群では非投与群に比し、NOを介した酸化傷害を軽減することが示された。

    1、温虚血再潅流傷害に対するselectin blocker (OJ-R9188)の検討 (1)ラットの心肺ブロックを摘出し、37℃90分間の温虚血後ex vivo再潅流モデルにて再潅流を60分間行った。OJ-R9188投与群は、非投与郡に比べ、酸素化能などにおいて良好な肺機能がみられた。
    (2)再潅流後肺を用い、白血球組織浸潤の指標となるMyeloperoxidase(MPO)活性を測定したが、両群間に有意さを認めなかった。
    (3)再潅流後肺を用い、酸化ストレスにより産生されるDNA塩基産物8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosineに対するモノクロナル抗体で免疫染色を行い、コンピューターにて定量解析したところ、OJ-R9188投与群は、非投与群に比べ、DNA酸化傷害を軽減することが示された。また、一酸化窒素(NO)を介した酸化ストレスにより産生されるタンパク修飾産物3-nitro-L-tyrosineに対するポリクロナル抗体で免疫染色したところ、OJ-R9188投与群は、非投与群に比べ、NOを介した酸化傷害を軽減することが示された。
    (4)Electron Spin Resonance法を用いた解析では、OJ-R9188に直接的抗酸化作用は認められなかった。
    以上のことから、OJ-R9188により肺温虚血再潅流傷害が軽減され、その機序の一つとして酸化ストレスの抑制が示された。
    2、温虚血再潅流傷害に対するselectin blocker (OJ-R9545)の検討 ウサギin vivo再潅流モデル(37℃、110分間虚血、90分間再潅流)においてOJ-R9545の効果を評価した。OJ-R9545投与群は、非投与群に比べ良好な酸素化能を示し、MPO活性は低値を示した。すなわち、OJ-R9545じゃ白血球の組織浸潤を抑制し、温虚血再潅流傷害を抑制した。

    本研究はABO血液型不適合移植後に発生する肝機能障害の病理学的特徴を解明することを目的とする。京大病院において平成2年6月から平成8年3月の5年9カ月間にタクロリムス免疫抑制下に行った血縁者間生体部分肝移植移植213例中ABO血液型不適合移植症例29例の結果は昨年報告した。
    本年はその後平成8年4月から平成10年末までの2年9ヶ月間に移植された210例のうちのABO血液型不適合移植症例24例について、移植後の肝機能障害時の病理組織学的検討を行い以下の結果を得た。(1)超急性拒絶反応は見られなかった。(2)急性細胞性拒絶反応は54%の症例(13症例)に見られた。(3)慢性拒絶反応の症例はなかった。(4)胆管炎は42%の症例(10例)に見られた。(5)死亡例9例のうち剖検を行った3例ではいずれも循環障害による肝障害が見られた。また、再移植例2例の摘出肝では1例で肝動脈血栓症が、他の1例では肝動脈血栓症を原因とすると考えられる慢性胆管障害が見られた。(6)移植前後の抗血液型抗体価と胆管障害および死亡・再移植との関連が見られた。
    この両年度の結果を総合すると、ABO血液型不適合肝移植においては液性拒絶反応に特有とされる超急性拒絶反応は見られなかったが、特に抗血液型抗体価の高い症例において剖検肝、再移植時摘出肝および肝生検において刊循環障害あるいは胆管障害(慢性胆管炎)がしばしば見られ、また生検で胆管炎がABO血液型適合または一致症例にくらべて高頻度に見られた。
    これらの所見からこの肝循環障害と胆管障害がABO血液型不適合肝移植に特有な障害と考えられ、その組織発生としては、まず血管内皮を標的とする抗原抗体反応性の血管障害が起こり、その結果胆管に虚血を生じて虚血性胆管炎を招来すると推測された。なお、急性拒絶反応もABO血液型適合または一致症例にくらべて高頻度に見られた。

    平成2年6月から平成10年12月末までの8年7ヶ月間にタクロリムス免疫抑制下に行った血縁者間の生体部分肝移植423例(412患者)のうちのABO血液型不適合移植症例53例(51患者)について、移植後の肝機能障害時の病理組織学的検討を行い以下の結果を得た。
    (1)超急性拒絶反応は見られなかったが、症例の7%に肝動脈血栓症が、38%に急性/慢性胆管炎が、59%に急性細胞拒絶反応が、2%に慢性拒絶反応が、2%に臓器保存・再灌流障害が、25%に急性肝炎が、8%に慢性肝炎が、6%に移植後リンパ増殖性疾患がそれぞれ見られた。(2)肝動脈血栓症、急性/慢性胆管炎および急性細胞性拒絶反応の頻度はABO血液型一致または適合移植症例に比較して高かった。(3)肝動脈血栓症および急性/慢性胆管炎は移植前後の抗血液型抗体価の高い症例に高頻度に発生したが、急性細胞性拒絶反応では抗血液型抗体価との関連は見られなかった。(4)移植後41.5%(22例)において患者が死亡し、あるいは移植肝の機能廃絶して再移植を受けた。この頻度はABO血液型一致または適合移植症例に比較して高かった。主な原因は、肝動脈血栓症と急性/慢性胆管炎であった。(5)移植後肝機能廃絶摘出肝の病理組織学的解析にて、これらに見られる急性/慢性胆管炎は肝動脈血栓を背景として生ずる二次的な虚血性胆管炎であると考えられた。
    以上のデータから、ABO血液型不適合血縁間生体部分肝移植においては、血管内皮と標的とする抗血液型抗体による抗原抗体反応によって肝動脈血栓症がしばしば発生し、そのため二次的に肝動脈の血流に支配されている胆管に虚血性胆管傷害をきたして急性/慢性胆管炎を高頻度に合併し、移植肝の機能廃絶の原因となることが示された。急性拒絶反応も高頻度にみられたが、これは液性反応と無関係であると考えられた。

    鉄ニトリロ三酢酸による腎尿細管傷害・腎発がんのモデルは1982年に当教室で開発されたモデルであり、腎近位尿細管でFenton-like reactionを引き起こす。酸化ストレスの形態学的評価のためには、フリーラジカル反応によるcovalentな修飾を受けた分子に対する抗体を作製するというストラテジーが適切と考え、まず、生体内においてはどのような修飾分子の増加率が高いかを検討した。上記モデルにおいては、DNA修飾塩基として8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine(8-OHdG)、アルデヒド化合物として4-hydroxy-2-nonenal(HNE)の増加率が最も高いことを見いだした。アルデヒド化合物はフリーの状態でいると、疎水性でありパラフィン包埋の過程で流出し失われてしまう。アルデヒド化合物が蛋白のアミノ酸残基と反応しマイケル反応産物を形成するという化学反応の解明が、抗体作成の過程で重要であった。名古屋大学大学院生命農学研究科、日本老化制御研究所と共同で、上記のエピトープに対するポリクローナル・モノクローナル抗体を作製あるいは評価を行った。そして、幸運にもこれらの抗体は通常のパラフィン包埋の病理標本で使用可能であることが判明した。
    上記鉄ニトリロ三酢酸のモデルだけではなく、糖尿病(Goto-Kakizakiラット)、虚血・再灌流モデル(肺、肝、皮弁)、砒素中毒症、大腸癌、C型肝炎、アルコール性肝炎などにおいて酸化ストレスが関与していることを証明した。特に、糖尿病の膵ランゲルハンス島における酸化ストレスの評価は本手法により初めて可能となったものであり意義深い。

    酸化ストレスの形態学的評価にはフリーラジカル反応によるcovalentな修復を受けた分子に対する抗体を作製するストラテジーが適切と考え、生体内においてどのような修飾分子の増加率が高いかを検討した。鉄ニトリロ三酢酸による腎尿細管傷害・腎発がんのモデルでは、腎近位尿細管でFenton-like reactionが発生する。上記モデルにおいて、DNA修飾塩基として8-hydroxy-2^'-deoxyguanosine(8-OHdG)、アルデヒド化合物として4-hydroxy-2-nanenal(HNE)の増加率が最も高いことを見いだした。アルデヒド化合物はフリーの状態では疎水性があり、パラフィン包埋の過程で流出し失われる。アルデヒド化合物が蛋白のアミノ酸残基と反応しマイケル反応産物を形成するという化学反応の解明が、抗体作成の過程で重要であった。上記のエピトープに対するポリクロナール。モノクロナール抗体を作製・評価を行った。これらの抗体を通常のパラフィン包埋に適応する方法を開発した。この方法により、糖尿病、虚血、再灌流モデル(肺、肝、皮弁)、砒素中毒症、大腸癌、C型肝炎、アルコール性肝炎などにおいて酸化ストレスが関与していることを証明した。
    酸化ストレス発がんに標的となる遺伝子が存在するかどうかという問題に対して、candidate gene apprach、活性酸素代謝に関与する遺伝子の探索を行ってきたが、大きな成果は上がらなかった。しかし、F_1純系動物を使用したLOH解析により糸口をつかみ、p15/p16癌抑制遺伝子の異常が半数近い腫瘍で認められることを見いだした。少なくとも最終的なゲノムの異常に関しては標的となる遺伝子が存在することを初めて明らかにした。

    目的:生体部分肝移植は小児の非可逆性肝疾患末期の肝不全症の唯一の治療法として定着してきている。その移植不成功の最大の原因となる移植肝に発生する慢性の進行性肝機能障害を臨床病理学的に解析した。
    方法:1990年6月から1996年5月の6年間に224例(5再移植例を含む)に生体部分肝移植が行われた。このうち移植後2ヵ月以降に進行性肝機能障害を来した33例の生検材料、手術材料、剖検材料について、免疫組織化学、in situ hybridization法を含む病理組織学的検索を行い、臨床病理学的に解析した。
    結果及び考察:進行性肝機能障害を示した33例中、21例が移植後64日から5年11カ月の間(中央値174日)に移植不成功(死亡16例、再移植5例)となった。そのうち慢性拒絶反応は7例(死亡4例、再移植3例)にみられた。3例が主として血管性、4例が主として胆管消失性拒絶反応であった。また、上記33例中、慢性胆管炎が15例(うち死亡9例、再移植1例)に見られた。うち7例はABO血液型不適合移植例であり、その2例は抗血液型抗体価が高く、胆管吻合部分に問題がないにも拘わらず胆管炎が発生した。また他の1例はリンパ球クロスマッチ試験陽性例であった。これらのことから胆管炎とhumoral mechanismの関連が注目された。移植後リンパ増殖性疾患は4例(うち1例は胆管炎に、1例は慢性拒絶反応に合併、全例死亡)に見られ、Epstein-Barrウイルスの関与が組織学的に証明された。慢性肝炎・肝硬変は8例(うち死亡1例)に見られ、5例はB型、1例はC型の慢性肝炎、他の2例は原因が不明であった。
    結論:生体部分肝移植後の慢性進行性肝機能障害の原因として、慢性拒絶反応、慢性胆管炎、移植後リンパ増殖性疾患及び慢性肝炎・肝硬変が重要であることが判明した。

    淀井らが報告したATL-derived factor(ADF)は、チオ-ル基を介して強い還元活性を示すthioredoxin(TRX)のヒトホモロ-グであり、レドックス制御に関わる抗酸化ストレス因子である。今年度の成果として以下のことが明らかとなった。1)TRX遺伝子のknock outマウスは胎生致死であり、TRX遺伝子はマウス胎仔の早期分化および形態形成に重要な役割を果たしていたこと。2)TRX遺伝子のプロモ-タ-部位に酸化ストレスに応答する遺伝子配列を同定したこと。3)NF-κBおよびAP1などの転写因子活性化に、TRXやRef-1などのレドックス蛋白が、重要な制御的働きをするが、さらにRef-1がTRXに結合し、AP-1転写活性への役割を果たすこと。3)ステロイドホルモンレセプタ-、PEBP-2の活性化にも、レドックス制御機構の役割が重要であること(田中、重定との共同研究)。また、Chae,Paakによりペルオキシダ-ゼ活性を有するTRX依存性peroxidase(peroxiredoxin)も報告され、抗酸化ストレス機構の解明が進んでいる。一方、酸化ストレスに対する防御因子が生体内レドックスセンサ-機構としての役割も積極的に担うことが明らかにされつつある。淀井などが、酸化ストレスによるtyrosine kinaseの活性化を示したが、MAP kinaseのレドックス制御機構は、Karinらによって進展している。また、山本によりp53の酸化ストレスによる活性化機構の解析がなされた。豊國らは鉄による酸化ストレス下のレドックス制御不全状態で過酸化脂質蛋白複合体が生体内で生じていることを明らかにし、鉄による発癌に関する研究を展開した。今後さらにレドックス関連分子の解析およびその情報伝達における役割、酸化ストレスに対するレドックスセンサ-機構、レドックス制御異常による不可逆的酸化ストレスの病態形成への関与を解析することが必要と思われる。

    活性酸素(フリ-ラジカル)は変異、発癌、虚血・再灌流障害、放射線・紫外線障害など種々の生命現象に深く関与することが認識されるようになっている。私たちはいままで、鉄キレ-ト剤である鉄ニトリロ三酢酸反復投与によるラット腎発癌モデルにおいて、活性酸素がその発癌過程に深く関与することを報告してきた。本研究の最終目標は、上記「活性酸素による発癌モデル」において、rate-limitingとなりうる遺伝子を同定し、その変異や発現機構を解析することおよび活性酸素をひとつの切り口として発癌機構を追及することである。
    発癌の標的遺伝子の同定に関して、私たちは以下のアプロ-チを取った。1)活性酸素の代謝に関与する蛋白・酵素遺伝子の発現の評価、2)p53、rasなど既知遺伝子の変異の解析である。1)では、発癌過程初期よりGSH S-transferase piの特異的な誘導を見いだした。2)では、低頻度のp53遺伝子の変異を認めた。従って、本発癌モデルの主要な標的遺伝子はいまだ同定されていない。
    更に、フリ-ラジカルの攻撃により生成する産物の検討を詳細に行った。フリ-ラジカルの標的は脂質・核酸・蛋白質など多岐に渡り、フリ-ラジカル反応により生成する化合物の報告数は年々増加している。しかしながら、活性酸素のエフェクタ-として実際、要となり働くのはかなり限られた分子であることが予想される。私たちはこのモデルにおいて膜脂質の損傷(過酸化脂質)において炭素鎖が2から12の全飽和・不飽和アルデヒドをガスクロマトグラフィ-と質量検出器を使用する分析法で定量し、4-hydroxy-2-nonenal(HNE)の増加率が最も高いことを見いだし、更にHNE修飾蛋白に対するモノクロ-ナル抗体を作成し、免疫化学的応用を行った。

    本研究はPre-Bリンパ腫好発近交系マウスSL/Khのリンパ腫の発生、病型、潜伏期間の長さなどを支配している宿主遺伝子を同定し、その作用機序を解析することを目的としている。今回はSL/Khと野生マウス由来の近交系MSM/Msの交配系のリンパ腫発生を観察し、遺伝解析を加えた。F1ではリンパ腫の発生はなく、SL/Khへの退交配世代60頭のうち14頭が1年6ケ月の観察期間中にリンパ腫を発生した。この頻度から、MSM/Msは2つの優性抵抗性遺伝子を持つという仮説をたてた。退交配世代をマイクロサテライト法により遺伝解析した結果、第17染色体MHC領域と第14染色体上に優性抵抗性遺伝子がマップされ、それぞれMsmr-1,Msmr-2と命令された。SL/KhのMHC haplotypeはqで、MHC classll分子に欠損がある。SL/Kh系マウスはウイルス、あるいはリンパ腫細胞に対する免疫学的抵抗性を欠如していると考えられる。またMsmr-2はヒトの5q23-31とシンテニックであり、この部位ではヒト造血系腫瘍でしばしば転座、LOHなどが報告されている。

    文部省科学研究費・国際学術研究調査(平成3〜4年・ウイルス疾患でのADF/チオール依存性細胞活性化機構に関する学術調査研究;淀井淳司 代表者)は、レドックス研究の交流の基礎となった。本国際学術研究調査は、その研究調査を更に発展させてHo Zoon Chae(KOREA)、Michael Karin(USA)らを研究分担者として加え、レドックス制御とシグナル伝達機構に関する研究交流を行った。
    生体におけるレドックス制御とは、酸化還元に基づく蛋白質システイン残基上のチオール基の可逆的構造変化により、種々の細胞機能を制御することと説明できる。淀井らが報告したHTLV-I感染細胞の産生するATL-derived factor(ADF)は、システイン(Cys)のSH基を介して強い還元活性を示すthioredoxin(TRX)のヒトホモローグである。このADF/TRXは、グルタチオン系と共に細胞内のレドックス制御に関わる抗酸化ストレス因子である。今年度の交流の成果として1)TRX遺伝子のTargetingを行った結果、TRX遺伝子をヘテロに欠損している個体は正常であったが、ホモに欠損している個体は着床後すぐに死亡した。TRX遺伝子はマウス胎仔の早期分化および形態形成に重要な役割を果たしていることが明らかとなった。2)TRX遺伝子のプロモーター部位の解析を行い、新たに、酸化ストレスに応答する遺伝子配列を同定した。3)遺伝子転写のレドックス制御については、淀井、山本らによるNFκBおよびAP1などの転写因子活性化に、TRXやRef-1/APEX蛋白などのレドックス制御蛋白が、重要な制御的働きをすることが明らかになっている。さらにRef-1がTRXに結合し、AP-1転写活性への役割を新たに明らかとした。ステロイドホルモンなどの核内レセプター群の細胞質・核内移行と遺伝子活性化調節にも、TRXの関与するレドックス制御機構の役割が重要と考えられた(田中らとの共同研究)。転写制御因子PEBP-2の活性化にもレドックス制御が関与することが明らかになった(重定らとの共同研究、投稿準備中)。4)抗酸化機能をもつペルオキシダーゼ活性をもつ新しいタンパク質ファミリーが近年見い出されてきた。Chae,PaakによりTRX依存性peroxidase(peroxiredoxin)や、一部のGSH peroxidaseがTRXによって活性化されることも報告され、抗酸化ストレス機構の解明が進んでいる。今後さらにレドックス関連分子の分子機構および情報伝達における役割を解析する必要がある。
    レドックス制御は、分子の酸化(酸化ストレス)を契機とするストレス応答反応とも捉えることができるため、レドックス制御と酸化ストレスは表裏一体の関係にある。酸化ストレスに対する防御分子が生体内レドックスセンサー機構としての役割も積極的に担うことが現在明らかにされつつある。酸化ストレスは細胞のレドックスセンサー機構によって認知され、その一部は生体にとって有用なシグナル応答へと変換される。既知のリン酸化によるシグナル伝達経路とクロストークを行っていることなどが相次いで報告された。わが国では淀井などが、リンパ球への酸化ストレスが細胞膜のチロシンキナーゼの活性化につながり、それぞれ正・負のシグナル伝達に関わることを明らかにしたが、海外ではMAP kinaseやtyrosine kinaseのレドックス制御機構は、Karin,らによって進展している。また、山本によりp53の酸化ストレスによる活性化機構の解析がなされた。今後レドックスセンサー機構をさらに解析することが必要である。レドックス制御異常は、エイズ・ATL・肝炎ウイルス感染症など、種々のウイルス感染での細胞死・異常増殖に関係している。豊國らは鉄による酸化ストレス下のレドックス制御不全状態で過酸化脂質蛋白複合体が生体内で生じていることを明らかにし、鉄による発癌に関する研究を展開した。レドックス制御異常による不可逆的酸化ストレスは病態形成に関与することが考えられ、今後様々な病態での解析が必要と思われる。

    本年度の主な実績は以下の通りである。
    1)85例の腎細胞癌および212例の他の泌尿器癌について、PCR-RFLP法を用いてp53遺伝子コドン75の多型(CGC(Arg)またはCCC(Pro))を解析し、ノ-マルコントロ-ル群と比較した。統計学的には有意差を認めなかったが、腎細胞癌ではArg/Argの頻度は比較的低く、Pro/Proの頻度が高くなる傾向が認められた。
    2)97例の腎細胞癌罹患者について、PCRを用いてHLA class II DRB1のアレル頻度を解析し、1216例の日本人ノ-マルコントロ-ル群と比較することにより、臨床パラメ-タ-との相関について検討した。腎細胞癌罹患者ではHLA class II DRB 0101,0405アレル頻度が有意に低く、またこれらのアレルを有する例では他の群に比べlow grade, low stageのが有意に多かった。
    3)25例の腎細胞癌について、ウエスタンブロッティングおよびカイネ-スアッセイを用いてMAP、MEK、Raf-1の活性化について検討した。約半数の症例でMAPの恒常的活性化を認めた。
    4)55例の腎細胞癌についてマイクロサテライトを用いた9p21-22のLOH、サザンブロッティング、SSCP、ダイレクトシ-クエンスを用い、p16の欠失、変異について解析した。p16の欠失、mutationの頻度は極めてひくかったが、55例を手術時の転移の有無により2群に分けた場合、9p21-22のLOHは転移を有する群で有意に高かった。
    以上より、P53コドン75の多型、HLAクラスII抗原の違いは、宿主側の要因であるが、腎癌の発生に大きく関与し、健常人の腎癌罹患の危険因子とみなしうる可能性が示唆された。MAPは腎癌の発生、進展を生物学的に解析する上で極めて意義のある蛋白であると考えられた。さらに、HLAクラスII抗原、染色体9p21-22の欠失は腎癌罹患者の予後を予測するマ-カ-となりうることが示された。以上の分子生物学的なパラメ-タ-のさらに詳細な解析は臨床上の治療指針の確立に大きく寄与するものと思われる。

    フリ-ラジカルによる生体高分子損傷は変異、発癌、老化、放射線効果、坑癌剤活性等の種々の生物学的過程で重要な役割を果たす。低分子鉄キレ-ト化合物である鉄ニトリロ三酢酸の投与はラットやマウスに高率に腎癌を誘発する。本研究代表者はこれまでに脂質過酸化物の測定等により、この発癌系でフリ-ラジカルが深く関与することを示してきた。今回新たに腎クロマチンにおいてヒドロキシラジカルに特徴的なDNA修飾塩基の生成をガスクロマトグラフィ-・マススペクトロメトリ-による測定で証明し、また変異原性の確立された過酸化脂質である4-hydroxy-2-nonenal修飾蛋白に対する抗体を使用しその存在を証明した。更に誘発された腎原発腫瘍12例において癌遺伝子であるrasおよび癌抑制遺伝子であるp53の突然変異の検索を行った。rasについてはH-ras,K-ras,n-rasいずれにおいてもcodon12,13,61において変異を認めなかった。p53は1例においてcodon246で変異を認め(CGC to CTC;Arg to Leu)、蛋白レベルでその異常蛋白の発現が高いことを確認した。この変異パタ-ンはヒドロキシラジカルに特徴的な修飾塩基である8-hydroxyguanineにより引き起こされたものとして矛盾しない。本研究では、この腎発癌モデルにおいてはras,p53はフリ-ラジカルによる変異の主要な標的となっていないことが明らかとなった。これはヒト腎癌の報告とも一致し、臓器特異的な事実である可能性もあり、現在新たな標的遺伝子を検索している。

    1:腎細胞癌の生物学的特性。1)腎細胞癌では内因性活性酵素の被爆程度が正常部よりも大きく、発生に関与することが示唆された。2)腎細胞癌は抗癌剤に対して耐性を持つものが多いが、mdr1、MRP、トポイソメレースII、の発現パターンのについてRT-PCRを用いて検討したところ、papillaryタイプの腎細胞癌ではMRPの発現が有意に低かった。3)シスプラチン耐性の腎細胞癌癌細胞に対し、Interleukin6またはその受容体に対する抗体を投与した場合、癌細胞のシスプラチンに対する感受性が上昇することが明らかになった。4)腎細胞癌の組織型、によりE-カドヘリンの発現に差が認められた。papillaryタイプ、chromophobeタイプではE-カドヘリンの発現が保たれているものが多かった。5)約80%の腎細胞癌でo-met遺伝子の過剰発現を認めた。悪性度の高いもの、papillaryタイプの腎細胞癌で高い発現を示すものが多かった。6)腎細胞癌において、MAPカイネースおよびその上流にあるMEK、Raf-1の活性化について検討したところ、約半数の症例でMAPの恒常的活性化を認めた。7)腎細胞癌を手術時の転移の有無により2群に分けた場合、9p21-22のLOHは転移を有する群で有意に高かった。
    2:宿主側の因子。8)p53遺伝子にはwild typeにおいてもコドン75に多型が存在するが、腎細胞癌罹患者ではArg/Argの頻度は比較的低く、Pro/Proの頻度が高っくなる傾向が認められた。9)腎細胞癌の発生、進展とHLAタイプとの相関関係を検討したところ、腎細胞癌罹患者ではHLA class II DRB 1の0404,0120アレル頻度が有意に低かった。
    以上、腎細胞癌に対する広範かつ多角的なデータを得ることができた。

    最近、がんの発生におけるフリ-ラジカルの役割については多くの注目を集めてきているが科学的な根拠については未知の点も多い。特に、防御機構が正常に機能しない状態に陥ったときに生体内では過剰な活性酸素が生成し、フリ-ラジカル連鎖反応が誘発される。その結果、生体膜での障害や生体重要物質での損傷にもとずく機能障害の蓄積と共に遺伝子レベルにおける障害が「遺伝毒性」を発現し、「がんの発生」を誘発したり「がん化の促進」に大きな役割をはたしているのではないかと考えられてきている。このような遺伝子レベルにおける酸化的障害を抑制すること、特に食品成分が抑制因子となりうるかについてを評価するために、老化に関連した疾病のマ-カ-として酸化修飾塩基の代表である8-デオキシグアノシンのモノクロ-ナル抗体よる検出法の応用を日本老化制御研究所(越智)との共同研究で開発することができた。そこで本年度は、まず、ゴマ種子中に大量に含まれている新規な抗酸化前駆体であるリグナン配糖体の持つ酸化障害予防効果の検討を行った。方法は、ゴマ脱脂粕をビタミンE欠乏飼料中に10%加えてラットに2ヵ月間投与し、四塩化炭素で過酸化障害を与えた。その結果、ビタミンE欠乏食だけの場合に較べてゴマ脱脂粕の場合は肝臓や血液中の過酸化度と共に尿中での過酸化度、さらに8-デオキシクアノシン量を有意に低下させた。これらの結果より、セサミノ-ル配糖体が腸内細菌により加水分解を受けた後に生体内に吸収され抗酸化的な防御効果を示すという新しい機構を提出することができた。また、本年は、生体膜の酸化的障害物質として代表的な4-ヒドロキシノネナ-ルのモノクロ-ナル抗体の作製に成功し、さらに最近マロンジアルデヒドにより修飾されたタンパク質に対するポリクロ-ナル抗体の作製にも成功している。これらの抗体による組織染色、特に酸化障害により生じた腎臓がん部位での検出への応用にも成功している。さらに、培養細胞系、特に、チャイニ-ズハムスタ-や大腸由来の細胞で過酸化水素を中心とした酸化的障害の保護効果についても、新しい機構を提出することができた。また、ゴマ油中の抗酸化成分として抗酸化的な防御効果の検討を行ったセサミノ-ルについては、ビタミンEに対して強い相乗的な効果が見られるという新しいメカニズムを明らかにすることができたので、これらのリグナンを食品因子として代謝も含めた新しい研究へのアプロ-

    ヒトにおいて体内の鉄貯蔵量増加は発癌のリスクとなることが明らかとなったため、鉄による発癌機構の分子病理学的解明をめざした。この際、中性で自由鉄でありうる鉄キレ-ト化合物が重要となる。鉄ニトリロ三酢酸の反復投与はラット、マウスで高率に胃癌を発生させる。また、鉄クエン酸はヒトのヘモクロマト-シスにおける血中の自由鉄である。両鉄キレ-ト化合物は本研究者らの開発したsupercoiled plasmidを使用したin vitroの系でDNAを切断し修飾塩基を生成した。この反応は、温度、還元剤、pH、鉄とキレ-ト剤の比率に依存した。次に、鉄ニトリロ三酢酸を投与したラット腎において、ガスクロマトグラフィ-/マススぺクトロメトリ-によりDNA修飾塩基を検討し、癌遺伝子であるc-fos、c-junの蛋白について酵素抗体法により解析を加えた。投与後1-3hrsをピ-クとして、8-hydroxyguanine(8-OH-Gua)をはじめとする7種のDNA修飾塩基の増加を認めた。8-OH-GuaはG:C to T:A transversionの原因として注目されるが、生成修飾塩基の中には変異原性に関するデ-タがいまだ報告のないものもある。近位尿細管の変性壊死再生に伴い、修飾塩基が存在することは変異を誘発し固定するという意味において発癌過程で重要な役割を果たしていると考えられる。投与後16hrs以後再生上皮にc-fos、c-jun蛋白の増加がみられ、これらの蛋白の発癌過程への関与が示唆された。

    リンパ腫好発系近交系マウスSL/Kh系の前リンパ腫期骨髄におけるB細胞分化を検討した。BP-1抗原陽性前B細胞が生後4-6週を中心に著明にポリクロ-ナルに増殖し15-18週令ころより急速にモノクロ-ナル増殖に転化した。他の大部分の近交系マウスでは前B細胞のレベルははるかに低かった。SL/KhとのF1では前B細胞の増殖がみられこの形質は遺伝的に優性とみなされた。SL/Khのリンパ腫発生には内在性レトロウイルスが必要であるが、前リンパ腫期の前B細胞の増殖にはウイルスは関与していないことがウイルス抵抗性遺伝子FV-4^Rcongenic C4WとのF1においても前B細胞の増殖があること、母系抵抗因子の投与によっても減少しないことから証明された。一方、放射線キメラを作成したところ、骨髄細胞ドナ-によって前B細胞のレベルは決定されており、SL/Kh系の幹細胞の性質に基づくものと思われた。これらの所見から、SL/Kh系の前Bリンパ腫の発生は多段階過程を経て発生することが示された。
    自然発生リンパ腫をみないNFS/N系とのF1、退交配系についてリンパ腫の発生、病型を観察し、プロウイルスとその発現、生化学的遺伝子マ-カ-、マイクロサテライトマ-カ-を全個体について解析した。すべてのリンパ腫の発生には内在性ウイルスのうちAkv-1(第7染色体)の存在と発現が必要であった。リンパ腫の発生は遺伝的に優性であるが、MHCと連関したEsl-1座位がSL/Kh由来のアレルを持つ場合には急性の前Bリンパ腫が発生し、第4染色体上のfoc-1座位がNFS/N由来の劣性アレルのホモの場合にはより成熟したB細胞腫瘍であるろ胞中心細胞リンパ腫が発生した。これらの所見はウイルスによる腫瘍の病型は宿主の遺伝的感受性により決定されていることを示すものである。

    リンパ腫の発生はマウスでは内在性レトロウイルスによるが、多くの宿主要因の関与する多段階過程で、いわば多因子遺伝病のモデルともみなされる。当研究室で樹立したPre-Bリンパ腫好発系SL/Khを材料として詳細な宿主遺伝要因の解析を行ってきた。まず、ウイルスゲノムを持たずリンパ腫の自然発生のないNFS/N系との交配実験から、SL/KhマウスのPre-Bリンパ腫に対する遺伝的感受性はプロウイルスEmv-11の存在に依存し、SL/Kh由来MHCをもつ場合はPre-Bリンパ腫を、これをもたず第4染色体上のfoc-1座位がNFS/N由来アレルのホモである場合には濾胞中心細胞リンパ腫を発生することを発見し報告した。本年度は、標的細胞の異なるTリンパ腫好発系AKR/Msとの交配実験を行い、SL/Khへの退交配、F2世代ではTリンパ腫の発生は常染色体単一優性遺伝子Tlsm-1 により決定されていること、同遺伝子はマイクロサテライト法による解析から第7染色体のセントロメアより62cMにマップされることを明らかにした。AKRとDBA/2との組み替え近交系AKXDの第7染色体を精査し、Tリンパ腫発生はこの系でもTlsm-1と相同な遺伝子によって決定されていることを示した。この部位にはラットの化学発癌剤誘発Tリンパ腫の感受性遺伝子も我々の手でマップされている。これらの一連の知見はリンパ腫病型は宿主遺伝子型の組み合わせにより決定されることを示唆し、ヒトのリンパ腫についても相同遺伝子を中心にこの考えを拡大適用できる可能性を示すものである。
