Both H2O2 (IC50 = 70 microM) and HOCl (IC50 = 8.5 microM) inhibited mitogen-induced MNL proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. This was found to be due to a depletion of intracellular ATP by at least two distinct mechanisms. HOCl and high concentrations (greater than 100 microM) of H2O2 inhibit ATP generation via sulfhydryl group oxidation on the active site of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PDH) enzyme of the glycolytic pathway. On the other hand, low H2O2 concentrations cause ATP depletion by an activation of the DNA repair enzyme, poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase (pADPRP), leading to consumption of NAD+, an essential cofactor for G3PDH. The anti-oxidants ascorbate and cysteine protected MNL against the anti-proliferative effects of HOCl. Similar results were achieved with the HOCl-mediated inhibition of ATP production and G3PDH activity. However, ascorbate was unable to protect against H2O2-mediated inhibition of MNL functions, while cysteine protected against the inhibitory effects on ATP production and G3PDH activity, induced by this oxidant.

The thioredoxin/thioredoxin reductase system has been studied as regenerative machinery for proteins inactivated by oxidative stress in vitro and in cultured endothelial cells. Mammalian glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase was used as the main model enzyme for monitoring the oxidative damage and the regeneration. Thioredoxin and its reductase purified from bovine liver were used as the regenerating system. The physiological concentrations (2-14 microM) of reduced thioredoxin, with 0.125 microM thioredoxin reductase and 0.25 mM NADPH, regenerated H2O2-inactivated glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and other mammalian enzymes almost completely within 20 min at 37 degrees C. Although the treatment of endothelial cells with 0.2-12 mM H2O2 for 5 min resulted in a marked decrease in the activity of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, it had no effect on the activities of thioredoxin and thioredoxin reductase. Essentially all of the thioredoxin in endothelial cells at control state was in the reduced form and 70-85% remained in the reduced form even after the H2O2 treatment. The inactivated glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in a cell lysate prepared from the H2O2-treated endothelial cells was regenerated by incubating the lysate with 3 mM NADPH at 37 degrees C and the antiserum raised against bovine liver thioredoxin inhibited the regeneration. The inhibition of thioredoxin reductase activity by 13-cis-retinoic acid resulted in a decrease in the regeneration of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in the H2O2-treated endothelial cells. The present findings provide evidence that thioredoxin is involved in the regeneration of proteins inactivated by oxidative stress in endothelial cells.

Articular cartilage proteoglycan biosynthesis was substantially inhibited by the competitive glycolytic inhibitor 2-deoxyglucose (approximately 65% at 100 mM), but to a much lesser degree (approximately 10%) by the oxidative phosphorylation uncoupler, 2,4-dinitrophenol. These results confirm that articular cartilage proteoglycan synthesis mostly utilises ATP which is generated by glycolysis. In addition, we have utilised the loss of the relatively specific labelling of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PDH) by [3H]-iodoacetic acid to show that rabbit articular G3PDH is oxidised in vivo during the animal model of acute arthritis, carrageenin-induced arthritis, in the same way as we have previously shown that cartilage G3PDH is oxidised after in vitro exposure to sublethal doses of H2O2. The oxidation of rabbit G3PDH in vivo (18 hr post-injection) corresponds with the maximal influx of PMNL cells into the arthritic synovial fluid and with substantial inhibition of proteoglycan core protein synthesis. We propose that H2O2 released from "activated" PMNLs and macrophages is responsible for the "down-regulation" of biosynthetic processes found in cartilage during acute inflammation.

The effects of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on the metabolism of cultured human synovial fibroblasts derived from joints of four patients with rheumatoid arthritis and three with osteoarthritis have been investigated. The exposure of rheumatoid cell cultures to this oxygen derived species at sublethal concentrations (1-100 mumol/l) induced a dose related inhibition of both hyaluronic acid (HA) and DNA synthesis. In contrast, in osteoarthritic cell lines a biphasic response was shown. At low concentrations of H2O2 (less than 10 mumol/l) a stimulatory effect on HA synthesis was noted, whereas in the presence of higher concentrations (greater than 10 mumol/l) a significant inhibition of synthesis occurred. These deleterious effects of H2O2 were partially reduced by the addition of catalase to the culture media. The finding that both HA and DNA synthesis were inhibited at concentrations of H2O2 less than those which caused loss of cell integrity (greater than 200 mumol/l) suggests oxidation of intracellular components, such as glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, and subsequent depletion of ATP concentrations.

HOCl, which is produced by the action of myeloperoxidase during the respiratory burst of stimulated neutrophils, was used as a cytotoxic reagent in P388D1 cells. Low concentrations of HOCl (10-20 microM) caused oxidation of plasma membrane sulfhydryls determined as decreased binding of iodoacetylated phycoerythrin. These same low concentrations of HOCl caused disturbance of various plasma membrane functions: they inactivated glucose and aminoisobutyric acid uptake, caused loss of cellular K+, and an increase in cell volume. It is likely that these changes were the consequence of plasma membrane SH-oxidation, since similar effects were observed with para-chloromercuriphenylsulfonate (pCMBS), a sulfhydryl reagent acting at the cell surface. Given in combination pCMBS and HOCl showed an additive effect. Higher doses of HOCl (greater than 50 microM) led to general oxidation of -SH, methionine and tryptophan residues, and formation of protein carbonyls. HOCl-induced loss of ATP and undegraded NAD was closely followed by cell lysis. In contrast, NAD degradation and ATP depletion caused by H2O2 preceded cell death by several hours. Formation of DNA strand breaks, a major factor of H2O2-induced injury, was not observed with HOCl. Thus targets of HOCl were distinct from those of H2O2 with the exception of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, which was inactivated by both oxidants.

The activity of the thiol-dependent enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPD), in vertebrate cells, was modulated by a change in the intracellular thiol:disulfide redox status. Human lung carcinoma cells (A549) were incubated with 1-120 mM H2O2, 1-120 mM t-butyl hydroperoxide, 1-6 mM ethacrynic acid, or 0.1-10 mM N-ethylmaleimide for 5 min. Loss of reduced protein thiols, as measured by binding of the thiol reagent iodoacetic acid to GPD, and loss of GPD enzymatic activity occurred in a dose-dependent manner. Incubation of the cells, following oxidative treatment, in saline for 30 min or with 20 mM dithiothreitol (DTT) partially reversed both changes in GPD. The enzymatic recovery of GPD activity was observed either without addition of thiols to the medium or by incubation of a sonicated cell mixture with 2 mM cysteine, cystine, cysteamine, or glutathione (GSH); GSSG had no effect. Treatment of cells with buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) to decrease cellular GSH by varying amounts caused a dose-related increase in sensitivity of GPD activity to inactivation by H2O2 and decreased cellular ability for subsequent recovery. GPD responded in a similar fashion with oxidative treatment of another lung carcinoma cell line (A427) as well as normal lung tissue from human and rat. These findings indicate that the cellular thiol redox status can be important in determining GPD enzymatic activity.

H2O2 concentrations only slightly higher than normal physiological levels found in the lens and aqueous fluid produce a significant number of DNA single-strand breaks in lens epithelial cell cultures. In this investigation, the repair of DNA damaged by short-term, H2O2-induced oxidation was examined in bovine lens epithelial cell cultures. Repair was rapidly initiated and was almost completed in 30 min. A drop in NAD concentration was associated with the DNA damage. 3-Aminobenzamide inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, an enzyme believed to be stimulated by DNA oxidation and involved in DNA repair, prevented the loss of NAD. In contrast, a similar drop in ATP concentration was only slightly lessened by the presence of this inhibitor. Inhibition of the polymerase by 3-aminobenzamide primarily affected only the early recovery period. Overall, recovery occurred almost as effectively in the presence of the inhibitor as in its absence. Preincubation of lens cultures with o-phenanthroline, an iron chelator, prevented the drop in NAD levels associated with DNA damage. Since a hydroxyl radical is produced from H2O2 by a Fenton type reaction, this result supports the concept that the H2O2-induced oxidation of DNA is caused by hydroxyl radical. In contrast, peroxide-induced loss of activity of a cytosolic enzyme, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, was unaffected by the presence of o-phenanthroline, suggesting direct H2O2 oxidation of this enzyme. The results of these experiments suggest that lens epithelium contains enzymes that rapidly repair single-strand DNA breaks induced by H2O2 insult.

Exposure of articular cartilage to H2O2 in vitro inhibits proteoglycan synthesis in a fashion which parallels the inhibition which occurs in cartilage in animal models of acute inflammation. Our study shows that exposure to H2O2 also inhibits other chondrocyte functions, including total protein and DNA synthesis. Since these intracellular biosynthetic processes require adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the effect of exposure of H2O2 on chondrocyte ATP was measured. Exposure to H2O2 caused an immediate (less than 2 min) dose dependent decrease in cartilage ATP levels--found to be due to the oxidative inactivation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-3-PDH). We suggest that intrachondrocyte oxidant damage occurs through oxidation of the sensitive thiol (-SH) residue at the active center of G-3-PDH, with subsequent reduction in the rate of glycolytic ATP synthesis and the intracellular concentration of ATP which is required for DNA, protein, proteoglycan and hyaluronic acid synthesis.

Perfusion of rat hearts with Krebs-Henseleit bicarbonate buffer containing low concentrations of hydrogen peroxide or t-butylhydroperoxide (50-500 microM) caused an imbalance in the relative synthesis versus utilization rates of ATP, leading to a net hydrolysis of ATP and phosphocreatine. Hydrogen peroxide also caused an 80% inactivation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, resulting in an inhibition of glycolysis and a rapid accumulation of sugar phosphates as detected with 31P-NMR spectroscopy. This inhibition was partially reversible with peroxide-free perfusion, resulting in a cessation of high-energy-phosphate hydrolysis and a decrease in the accumulated inorganic phosphate and sugar phosphate. t-Butylhydroperoxide toxicity was irreversible. Providing an alternative, non-glycolytic substrate (butyrate) did not protect against the toxicity of hydrogen peroxide, but altered the relative importance of sugar phosphate formation versus ATP hydrolysis. Experiments with heart homogenates in vitro suggest that the inhibition of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is a consequence of a direct reaction of the enzyme with hydrogen peroxide or one of its metabolites. Hearts subjected to total global ischemia (10-20 min), followed by reperfusion with oxygenated buffer, showed no detectable inactivation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, indicating that ischemia and reperfusion do not result in the production of high global concentrations of hydrogen peroxide.

Thioredoxin, a dithiol polypeptide, has been examined as a potential contributor to the recovery of lens epithelial cells from oxidative insult. It is reported that Escherichia coli thioredoxin can (a) effectively reduce lens-soluble protein disulfide bonds generated by H2O2, (b) restore to its initial activity H2O2-inactivated glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, (c) act as an effective source of reducing potential for lens methionine sulfoxide peptide reductase, and (d) act as a free radical quencher based on studies with a stable free radical system generated by ascorbic acid and 2,6-dimethoxy-p-benzoquinone. Thioredoxin is much more effective than dithiothreitol in restoring glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity and as a cofactor for methionine sulfoxide peptide reductase. Upon incubation with epithelial cells, thioredoxin can be observed in the cell using rocket immunoelectrophoresis. These cells recover from H2O2 insult more rapidly than control cell preparations based upon 1) analyses of plasma membrane-related activities: leucine and 86Rb uptake and 2) analyses of parameters primarily related to the internal cell metabolism: ATP concentration and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase activity. Analysis of thioredoxin in cell preparations indicates that only about 9% is in the reduced state implying a low effective concentration of the polypeptide. The experiments suggest that low levels of thioredoxin may significantly increase the ability of lens epithelial cells to recover from exposure to H2O2.
