From a public health perspective, the different manuscripts emphasize the already known U-shaped dose-response relationship between selenium (Se) concentration and disease risk across different study populations from Europe [1–3], the Middle East and North Africa [4], and Taiwan [5]. These reports therefore strengthen the importance of developing more personalized nutritional advice targeted at individuals at risk of disease with low Se intake. The results presented in this Issue also emphasize a need for further research into the mechanisms by which Se levels, selenoprotein expression, and inherited genetic variation in selenoproteins and interacting pathway genes may affect molecular pathways that either prevent or contribute to disease development. This is explored in human cohort studies [1–3,5,6] and in animal [7] and in vitro models [8]. 1. Selenium, Cardiovascular Diseases, Metabolic Syndrome, and Obesity Although links between Se levels, selenoprotein expression, and CVD or lipid metabolism are well established [1,2], the mechanisms supporting these associations remain unclear. Two of the manuscripts presented in this Issue established, in distinct Northern European populations, two novel Se-related biomarkers of risk and prognosis for CVD. Schomburg et al. identified, in a Swedish human perspective cohort, a strong correlation between low baseline plasma levels of Selenoprotein P (SELENOP; the major Se-transporter) and risk for all-cause mortality, CVD mortality, and a first CVD event during the follow-up period of 9.3 (8.3–11) years [2].

Berry, Chairperson Robert A. Nichols Jun Pane‘e P. Reed Larsen E. Gordon Grau To my beloved parents Wilson & Madalena To my dear love André ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A Ph.D. is a journey in a rough sea. As in all memorable expeditions, there is more to learn while traveling towards the final destination than at the destination itself. In several ways, it is the path and how you face the unexpected obstacles in this path that makes you a Doctor. The Ph.D. expedition does not allow an easy ride. While you travel through the waves and storms of your topic, figuring out a lot on and about yourself, you also encounter along the way people that make your stressful journey happier, nicer, safer, funnier and – why not – more challenging. They provided the emotional background that is not described in a scientific document. In my Ph.D. journey, these are the people about whom I’ll talk years ahead to friends, to whom I will silently smile when the nostalgic waves of the Ph.D. path break in the shores of my life. They are the unforgettable people that allowed me to arrive safe and sound in Doctorland. First and foremost, my greatest acknowledgement and gratitude goes to Dr.

However, the functional and regulatory roles of lncRNA-MEG3 in diabetic brain ischemic injury remain unclear. Results In this study, RBMVECs (the rat brain microvascular endothelial cells) were exposed to 6 h of OGD (oxygen and glucose deprivation), and subsequent reperfusion via incubating cells with glucose of various high concentrations for 24 h to imitate in vitro diabetic brain ischemic injury. It was shown that the marker events of ferroptosis and increased lncRNA-MEG3 expression occurred after the injury induced by OGD combined with hyperglycemic treatment.

Self © 2019 Michael Alan Johnstone ii ABSTRACT Selenium is a vital micronutrient in many organisms. While traces are required for survival, excess amounts are toxic; thus, selenium can be regarded as a biological “double-edged sword”. Selenium is chemically similar to the essential element sulfur, but curiously, evolution has selected the former over the latter for a subset of oxidoreductases. Enzymes involved in sulfur metabolism are less discriminate in terms of preventing selenium incorporation; however, its specific incorporation into selenoproteins reveals a highly discriminate process that is not completely understood.

    Role of Oxidative Stress and Nrf2/KEAP1 Signaling in Colorectal Cancer: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Perspectives with Phytochemicals

    antioxidants Review Role of Oxidative Stress and Nrf2/KEAP1 Signaling in Colorectal Cancer: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Perspectives with Phytochemicals Da-Young Lee, Moon-Young Song and Eun-Hee Kim * College of Pharmacy and Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, CHA University, Seongnam 13488, Korea; [email protected] (D.-Y.L.); [email protected] (M.-Y.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +82-31-881-7179 Abstract: Colorectal cancer still has a high incidence and mortality rate, according to a report from the American Cancer Society. Colorectal cancer has a high prevalence in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Oxidative stress, including reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation, has been known to cause inflammatory diseases and malignant disorders. In particular, the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/Kelch-like ECH-related protein 1 (KEAP1) pathway is well known to protect cells from oxidative stress and inflammation. Nrf2 was first found in the homolog of the hematopoietic transcription factor p45 NF-E2, and the transcription factor Nrf2 is a member of the Cap ‘N’ Collar family. KEAP1 is well known as a negative regulator that rapidly degrades Nrf2 through the proteasome system. A range of evidence has shown that consumption of phytochemicals has a preventive or inhibitory effect on cancer progression or proliferation, depending on the stage of colorectal cancer. Therefore, the discovery of phytochemicals regulating the Nrf2/KEAP1 axis and Citation: Lee, D.-Y.; Song, M.-Y.; verification of their efficacy have attracted scientific attention. In this review, we summarize the role Kim, E.-H. Role of Oxidative Stress of oxidative stress and the Nrf2/KEAP1 signaling pathway in colorectal cancer, and the possible and Nrf2/KEAP1 Signaling in utility of phytochemicals with respect to the regulation of the Nrf2/KEAP1 axis in colorectal cancer.

This ability of iron in the redox cycle as a ferrous ion enables it to react with H2O2, in the Fenton reaction, to produce a hydroxyl radical ( OH)—one of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) that cause deleterious oxidative damage • to DNA, proteins, and membrane lipids. Ferroptosis is a non-apoptotic regulated cell death that is dependent on iron and reactive oxygen species (ROS) and is characterized by lipid peroxidation. It is triggered when the endogenous antioxidant status of the cell is compromised, leading to lipid ROS accumulation that is toxic and damaging to the membrane structure. Consequently, oxidative stress and the antioxidant levels of the cells are important modulators of lipid peroxidation that induce this novel form of cell death. Remedies capable of averting iron-dependent lipid peroxidation, therefore, are lipophilic antioxidants, including vitamin E, ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1), liproxstatin-1 (Lip-1) and possibly potent bioactive polyphenols.

Research Article The ability of the neutrophil myeloperoxidase-hydrogen peroxide-halide system to induce the release of human platelet constituents was examined. Both lytic and nonlytic effects on platelets were assessed by comparison of the simultaneously measured release of a dense-granule marker, [3H]serotonin, and a cytoplasmic marker, [14C]adenine. Incubation of platelets with H2O2 alone (20 μM H2O2 for 10 min) resulted in a small, although significant, release of both serotonin and adenine, suggesting some platelet lysis. Substantial release of these markers was observed only with increased H2O2 concentrations (>0.1 mM) or prolonged incubation (1-2 h). Serotonin release by H2O2 was markedly enhanced by the addition of myeloperoxidase and a halide. Under these conditions, there was a predominance of release of serotonin (50%) vs. adenine (13%), suggesting, in part, a nonlytic mechanism. Serotonin release by the complete peroxidase system was rapid, reaching maximal levels in 2-5 min, and was active at H2O2 concentrations as low as 10 μM. It was blocked by agents which inhibit peroxidase (azide, cyanide), 2+ degrade H2O2 (catalase), chelate Mg (EDTA, but not EGTA), or inhibit platelet metabolic activity (dinitrophenol, deoxyglucose). These results suggest that the myeloperoxidase system initiates the release of platelet constituents primarily by a nonlytic process analogous to the platelet release reaction. Because components of the peroxidase system (myeloperoxidase, H2O2) are secreted by activated neutrophils, the reactions described here […] Find the latest version: https://jci.me/109287/pdf Myeloperoxidase-Mediated Platelet Release Reaction ROBERT A.

Dis., 57, 2004 Kinetics of Interconversion of Redox Intermediates of Lactoperoxidase, Eosinophil Peroxidase and Myeloperoxidase Paul Georg Furtmüller, Walter Jantschko, Martina Zederbauer, Christa Jakopitsch, Jürgen Arnhold1 and Christian Obinger* Metalloprotein Research Group, Division of Biochemistry, Department of Chemistry, BOKU-University of Natural Resources and Applied Life Sciences, 1Institute of Medical Physics and Biophysics, School of Medicine, University of Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany SUMMARY: Myeloperoxidase, eosinophil peroxidase and lactoperoxidase are heme-containing oxidoreductases, which undergo a series of redox reactions. Though sharing functional and structural homology, reflecting their phylogenetic origin, differences are observed regarding their spectral features, substrate specificities, redox properties and kinetics of interconversion of the relevant redox intermediates ferric and ferrous peroxidase, compound I, compound II and compound III. Depending on substrate availability, these heme enzymes path through the halogenation cycle and/or the peroxidase cycle and/or act as poor (pseudo-) catalases. Today - based on sequence homologies, tertiary structure and the halide ions is the following: I– > Br– > Cl–. All peroxidases can nature of the heme group - two heme peroxidase superfamilies are oxidize iodide. At neutral pH, only MPO is capable to oxidize distinguished, namely the superfamily containing enzymes from chloride at a reasonable rate (4), and it is assumed that chloride and archaea, bacteria, fungi and plants (1) and the superfamily of thiocyanate are competing substrates in vivo. EPO can oxidize mammalian enzymes (2), which contains myeloperoxidase (MPO), chloride only at acidic pH (5), and at normal plasma concentrations, eosinophil peroxidase (EPO), lactoperoxidase (LPO) and thyroid bromide and thiocyanate function as substrates, whereas for LPO peroxidase (TPO).

However, using this technique, the granules by conventional transmission electron homogeneous chemical product induced by the microscopic study, large MPO-positive granules were cytochemical reaction makes it difficult to identify divided into five types by immunocryoultramicrotomy intragranular structure. Moreover, it is not easy to using monoclonal antibody. Double staining of MPO and precisely pinpoint which granules observed by lactoferrin (or lysozyme) was also performed. Lacto­ conventional transmission electron microscopy are MPO ferrin was generally detected in MPO-negative granules. positive (MPO+). To overcome these disadvantages, an Lysozyme immunostaining was present in MPO-positive ultrastructural immunogold staining, by which the and -negative granules. These data may suggest different structure can still be observed even after positive functions among large MPO-positive granules of human reaction for detecting intragranular proteins, has been circulating neutrophils.
