In this study, Cinachyrella spp. was placed in a closed aquaculture system and exposed to sub-lethal water-accommodated fractions (WAFs) of Macondo crude oil and chemically-enhanced water accommodated fractions (CE-WAFs) of the dispersant, Corexit 9500, over a 24-hour time course, in order to model the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill and oil spill sponge response.

  • Peroxiredoxins in Neurodegenerative Diseases
    antioxidants Review Peroxiredoxins in Neurodegenerative Diseases Monika Szeliga Mossakowski Medical Research Centre, Department of Neurotoxicology, Polish Academy of Sciences, 5 Pawinskiego Street, 02-106 Warsaw, Poland; [email protected]; Tel.: +48-(22)-6086416 Received: 31 October 2020; Accepted: 27 November 2020; Published: 30 November 2020 Abstract: Substantial evidence indicates that oxidative/nitrosative stress contributes to the neurodegenerative diseases. Peroxiredoxins (PRDXs) are one of the enzymatic antioxidant mechanisms neutralizing reactive oxygen/nitrogen species. Since mammalian PRDXs were identified 30 years ago, their significance was long overshadowed by the other well-studied ROS/RNS defense systems. An increasing number of studies suggests that these enzymes may be involved in the neurodegenerative process. This article reviews the current knowledge on the expression and putative roles of PRDXs in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and dementia with Lewy bodies, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Huntington’s disease. Keywords: peroxiredoxin (PRDX); oxidative stress; nitrosative stress; neurodegenerative disease 1. Introduction Under physiological conditions, reactive oxygen species (ROS, e.g., superoxide anion, O2 -; · hydrogen peroxide, H O ; hydroxyl radical, OH; organic hydroperoxide, ROOH) and reactive nitrogen 2 2 · species (RNS, e.g., nitric oxide, NO ; peroxynitrite, ONOO-) are constantly produced as a result of normal · cellular metabolism and play a crucial role in signal transduction, enzyme activation, gene expression, and regulation of immune response [1]. The cells are endowed with several enzymatic (e.g., glutathione peroxidase (GPx); peroxiredoxin (PRDX); thioredoxin (TRX); catalase (CAT); superoxide dismutase (SOD)), and non-enzymatic (e.g., glutathione (GSH); quinones; flavonoids) antioxidant systems that minimize the levels of ROS and RNS.

  • 1L1 an Outsider S Take on Autism Spectrum Disorders
    Plenary Lecture 特別講演 1L1 An outsider’s take on autism spectrum disorders ○Martin Raff MRC LMCB, University College London Autism spectrum disorders（ASDs）are among the commonest neuropsychiatric disorders. Although, until re- cently, ASDs were one of the least understood of these disorders, they are now one of the best understood. Pro- gress has come largely through recent advances in human genetics that have identified rare large!effect muta- tions that cause or greatly increase the risk of these disorders, together with studies of genetic mouse models based on these mutations. Remarkably, in a number of mouse models caused by single mutations, correction of the problem in the adult brain（with either drugs or genetic manipulations）largely reverses many of the behav- ioral and neurobiological abnormalities, providing hope for the development of therapies for individuals with ASDs. In my talk, I will review the basic features of ASDs, using home videos of the development of my 13!year! old autistic grandson as an example, and I will discuss some of the recent advances in ASD research, consider current puzzles, and speculate on possible ways forward.

  • The Prognostic Values of the Peroxiredoxins Family in Ovarian Cancer
    Bioscience Reports (2018) 38 BSR20180667 https://doi.org/10.1042/BSR20180667 Research Article The prognostic values of the peroxiredoxins family in ovarian cancer Saisai Li, Xiaoli Hu, Miaomiao Ye and Xueqiong Zhu Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, Wenzhou 325027, Zhejiang, China Correspondence: Xueqiong Zhu ([email protected]) Purpose: Peroxiredoxins (PRDXs) are a family of antioxidant enzymes with six identified mammalian isoforms (PRDX1–6). PRDX expression is up-regulated in various types of solid tumors; however, individual PRDX expression, and its impact on prognostic value in ovarian cancer patients, remains unclear. Methods: PRDXs family protein expression profiles in normal ovarian tissues and ovarian cancer tissues were examined using the Human Protein Atlas database. Then, the prog- nostic roles of PRDX family members in several sets of clinical data (histology, pathological grades, clinical stages, and applied chemotherapy) in ovarian cancer patients were investi- gated using the Kaplan–Meier plotter. Results: PRDXs family protein expression in ovarian cancer tissues was elevated com- pared with normal ovarian tissues. Meanwhile, elevated expression of PRDX3, PRDX5, and PRDX6 mRNAs showed poorer overall survival (OS); PRDX5 and PRDX6 also predicted poor progression-free survival (PFS) for ovarian cancer patients. Furthermore, PRDX3 played sig- nificant prognostic roles, particularly in poor differentiation and late-stage serous ovarian cancer patients. Additionally, PRDX5 predicted a lower PFS in all ovarian cancer patients treated with Platin, Taxol, and Taxol+Platin chemotherapy. PRDX3 and PRDX6 also showed poor PFS in patients treated with Platin chemotherapy. Furthermore, PRDX3 and PRDX5 indicated lower OS in patients treated with these three chemotherapeutic agents.

Arevalo and José Pablo Vázquez-Medina * Department of Integrative Biology, University of California, Berkeley, CA, 94705, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-510-664-5063 Received: 7 November 2018; Accepted: 20 November 2018; Published: 24 November 2018 Abstract: Peroxiredoxin 6 (Prdx6, 1-cys peroxiredoxin) is a unique member of the peroxiredoxin family that, in contrast to other mammalian peroxiredoxins, lacks a resolving cysteine and uses glutathione and π glutathione S-transferase to complete its catalytic cycle. Prdx6 is also the only peroxiredoxin capable of reducing phospholipid hydroperoxides through its glutathione peroxidase (Gpx) activity. In addition to its peroxidase activity, Prdx6 expresses acidic calcium-independent phospholipase A2 (aiPLA2) and lysophosphatidylcholine acyl transferase (LPCAT) activities in separate catalytic sites. Prdx6 plays crucial roles in lung phospholipid metabolism, lipid peroxidation repair, and inflammatory signaling. Here, we review how the distinct activities of Prdx6 are regulated during physiological and pathological conditions, in addition to the role of Prdx6 in cellular signaling and disease. Keywords: glutathione peroxidase; phospholipase A2; inflammation; lipid peroxidation; NADPH (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate) oxidase; phospholipid hydroperoxide 1. Introduction Peroxiredoxins are a ubiquitous family of highly conserved enzymes that share a catalytic mechanism in which a redox-active (peroxidatic) cysteine residue in the active site is oxidized by a peroxide [1]. In peroxiredoxins 1–5 (2-cys peroxiredoxins), the resulting sulfenic acid then reacts with another (resolving) cysteine residue, forming a disulfide that is subsequently reduced by an appropriate electron donor to complete a catalytic cycle [2,3].

Elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been proposed as a risk factor for the development of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) in patients with Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT). However, it has yet to be proven that the total levels of ROS are sufficiently increased to contribute to carcinogenesis. We hypothesized that if the ROS levels were increased in HT, ROS-related genes would also be differently expressed in PTC with HT. To find differentially expressed genes (DEGs) we analyzed data from the Cancer Genomic Atlas, gene expression data from RNA sequencing: 33 from normal thyroid tissue, 232 from PTC without HT, and 60 from PTC with HT.
