An unbiased systems approach was utilized to investigate hibernation-induced changes that are char- acteristic of the hibernator cardioprotective phenotype, by comparing the myocardial proteome of winter hibernating arctic ground squirrels (AGS), summer active AGS, and rats subjected to I/R, and further correlating with targeted metabolic changes. Methods: In a well-defined rodent model of I/R by deep hypothermic circulatory arrest followed by 3 or 24 h of reperfusion or sham, myocardial protein abundance in AGS (hibernating summer active) and rats (n = 4 to 5/group) was quantified by label-free proteomics (n = 4 to 5/group) and correlated with metabolic changes. Results: Compared to rats, hibernating AGS displayed markedly reduced plasma levels of troponin I, myocardial apoptosis, and left ventricular contractile dysfunction. Of the 1,320 rat and 1,478 AGS proteins identified, 545 were differentially expressed between hibernating AGS and rat hearts (47% up-regulated and 53% down-regulated). Gene ontology analysis revealed down-regulation in hibernating AGS hearts of most proteins involved in mitochondrial energy transduction, includ- ing electron transport chain complexes, acetyl CoA biosynthesis, Krebs cycle, glycolysis, and ketogenesis. Conversely, fatty acid oxidation enzymes and sirtuin-3 were up-regulated in hibernating AGS, with preserved peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor-α activity and reduced tissue levels of acylcarnitines and ceramides after I/R. Conclusions: Natural cardioprotective adaptations in hibernators involve extensive metabolic remodeling, featuring increased expression of fatty acid metabolic proteins and reduced levels of toxic lipid metabolites. Robust up-regula- tion of sirtuin-3 suggests that posttranslational modifications may underlie organ protection in hibernating mammals.

Research Article We evaluated a 22-yr-old Swedish man with lifelong exercise intolerance marked by premature exertional muscle fatigue, dyspnea, and cardiac palpitations with superimposed episodes lasting days to weeks of increased muscle fatigability and weakness associated with painful muscle swelling and pigmenturia. Cycle exercise testing revealed low maximal oxygen uptake (12 ml/min per kg; healthy sedentary men = 39 +/- 5) with exaggerated increases in venous lactate and pyruvate in relation to oxygen uptake (VO2) but low lactate/pyruvate ratios in maximal exercise. The severe oxidative limitation was characterized by impaired muscle oxygen extraction indicated by subnormal systemic arteriovenous oxygen difference (a- v O2 diff) in maximal exercise (patient = 4.0 ml/dl, normal men = 16.7 +/- 2.1) despite normal oxygen carrying capacity and Hgb-O2 P50.

  • Low Abundance of the Matrix Arm of Complex I in Mitochondria Predicts Longevity in Mice
    ARTICLE Received 24 Jan 2014 | Accepted 9 Apr 2014 | Published 12 May 2014 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms4837 OPEN Low abundance of the matrix arm of complex I in mitochondria predicts longevity in mice Satomi Miwa1, Howsun Jow2, Karen Baty3, Amy Johnson1, Rafal Czapiewski1, Gabriele Saretzki1, Achim Treumann3 & Thomas von Zglinicki1 Mitochondrial function is an important determinant of the ageing process; however, the mitochondrial properties that enable longevity are not well understood. Here we show that optimal assembly of mitochondrial complex I predicts longevity in mice. Using an unbiased high-coverage high-confidence approach, we demonstrate that electron transport chain proteins, especially the matrix arm subunits of complex I, are decreased in young long-living mice, which is associated with improved complex I assembly, higher complex I-linked state 3 oxygen consumption rates and decreased superoxide production, whereas the opposite is seen in old mice. Disruption of complex I assembly reduces oxidative metabolism with concomitant increase in mitochondrial superoxide production. This is rescued by knockdown of the mitochondrial chaperone, prohibitin. Disrupted complex I assembly causes premature senescence in primary cells. We propose that lower abundance of free catalytic complex I components supports complex I assembly, efficacy of substrate utilization and minimal ROS production, enabling enhanced longevity. 1 Institute for Ageing and Health, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne NE4 5PL, UK. 2 Centre for Integrated Systems Biology of Ageing and Nutrition, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne NE4 5PL, UK. 3 Newcastle University Protein and Proteome Analysis, Devonshire Building, Devonshire Terrace, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 7RU, UK.

Abstract: Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) can exert multiple deleterious effects and have been implicated in carcinogenesis. The xenoestrogen Bisphenol A (BPA) that is found in various consumer products has been involved in the dysregulation of numerous signalling pathways. In this paper, we present the analysis of a set of 94 genes that have been shown to be dysregulated in presence of BPA in ovarian cancer cell lines since we hypothesised that these genes might be of biomarker potential. This study sought to identify biomarkers of disease and biomarkers of disease- associated exposure. In silico analyses took place using gene expression data extracted from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) databases. Differential expression was further validated at protein level using immunohistochemistry on an ovarian cancer tissue microarray. We found that 14 out of 94 genes are solely dysregulated in the presence of BPA, while the remaining 80 genes are already dysregulated (p-value < 0.05) in their expression pattern Citation: Zahra, A.; Dong, Q.; Hall, as a consequence of the disease.

  • Biological Application and Disease of Oxidoreductase Enzymes Mezgebu Legesse Habte and Etsegenet Assefa Beyene
    Chapter Biological Application and Disease of Oxidoreductase Enzymes Mezgebu Legesse Habte and Etsegenet Assefa Beyene Abstract In biochemistry, oxidoreductase is a large group of enzymes that are involved in redox reaction in living organisms and in the laboratory. Oxidoreductase enzymes catalyze reaction involving oxygen insertion, hydride transfer, proton extraction, and other essential steps. There are a number of metabolic pathways like glycolysis, Krebs cycle, electron transport chain and oxidative phosphorylation, drug transfor- mation and detoxification in liver, photosynthesis in chloroplast of plants, etc. that require the direct involvements of oxidoreductase enzymes. In addition, degrada- tion of old and unnecessary endogenous biomolecules is catalyzed by a family of oxidoreductase enzymes, e.g., xanthine oxidoreductase. Oxidoreductase enzymes use NAD, FAD, or NADP as a cofactor and their efficiency, specificity, good biode- gradability, and being studied well make it fit well for industrial applications. In the near future, oxidoreductase may be utilized as the best biocatalyst in pharmaceuti- cal, food processing, and other industries. Oxidoreductase play a significant role in the field of disease diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. By analyzing the activities of enzymes and changes of certain substances in the body fluids, the number of disease conditions can be diagnosed. Disorders resulting from deficiency (quantita- tive and qualitative) and excess of oxidoreductase, which may contribute to the metabolic abnormalities and decreased normal performance of life, are becoming common. Keywords: biocatalyst, biological application, disease, metabolism, mutation, oxidoreductase 1. Introduction Oxidoreductases, which includes oxidase, oxygenase, peroxidase, dehydroge- nase, and others, are enzymes that catalyze redox reaction in living organisms and in the laboratory [1].

The left and right half are the same, having mirror image acetyl groups (-CH2COOH). Radio-label Experiment. The Krebs Cycle was tested by 14C radio- labeling experiments. In 1941, 14C-Acetyl-CoA was used with normal oxaloacetate, labeling only the right side of drawing. But none of the label was released as CO2. Always the left carboxyl group is instead released as CO2, i.e., that from oxaloacetate. This was interpreted as proof that citrate is not in the 14 cycle at all the labels would have been scrambled, and half of the CO2 would have been C. Prochiral Citrate. In a two-minute thought experiment, Alexander Ogston in 1948 (Nature, 162: 963) argued that citrate has the potential to be treated as chiral. In chemistry, prochiral molecules can be converted from achiral to chiral in a single step. The trick is an asymmetric enzyme surface (i.e. aconitase) can act on citrate as through it were chiral. As a consequence the left and right acetyl groups are not treated equivalently. “On the contrary, it is possible that an asymmetric enzyme which attacks a symmetrical compound can distinguish between its identical groups.” Metabolism Lecture 9 — CITRIC ACID CYCLE/FATTY ACID CATABOLISM — Restricted for students enrolled in MCB102, UC Berkeley, Spring 2008 ONLY [STEP 4] α-Keto Glutarate Dehydrogenase.
