The pH dependence of formation of a peroxidatic intermediate from the reaction of deuteroferriheme with hydrogen peroxide has been determined for the region pH 8.7-10.1 from stopped-flow kinetic studies in which absorbancy changes are observed at heme monomer-dimer isosbestic points. Results are interpreted primarily in terms of the attainment of double "steady-state" concentrations of Michaelis-Menten complex I and peroxidatic intermediate I'. A linear correlation of observed first-order rate constants with alpha, the degree of dissociation of heme dimer, has been demonstrated and nonzero intercepts are obtained. Slopes and intercepts show a linear logarithmic dependence on pH which is interpreted in terms of HO2-participation both in the formation and subsequent (catalatic) decomposition of a peroxidatically active intermediate. General acid catalysis of intermediate formation is indicated from studies in phosphate, arsenate, and citrate buffer at pH 7.4-9.3. It is suggested that such catalysis may be responsible for anomalously high rates of H2O2 decomposition previously observed in phosphate buffer solution.

The mechanism of ubiquinone homologs reduction by different preparations of mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase: complex I within submitochondrial particles, isolated NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase and soluble low molecular weight NADH dehydrogenase, has been investigated. It has been shown that NADH oxidation via the rotenone-insensitive reaction is associated with one-electron reduction of low molecular weight ubiquinone homologs (Q0, Q1, Q2) to semiquinone with subsequent fast oxidation of the latter by atmospheric oxygen to form a superoxide radical. The two-electron ubiquinone reduction to quinol in the rotenone-sensitive reaction is unaccompanied by the semiquinone release from the enzyme active center into the surrounding solution.

In the accompanying paper (Davies, K. J. A., and Doroshow, J. A. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 3060-3067), we have demonstrated that anthracycline antibiotics are reduced to the semiquinone form at Complex I of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. In the experiments presented in this study we examined the effects of doxorubicin (Adriamycin), daunorubicin, and related quinonoid anticancer agents on superoxide, hydrogen peroxide, and hydroxyl radical production by preparations of beef heart submitochondrial particles. Superoxide anion formation was stimulated from (mean +/- S.E.) 1.6 +/- 0.2 to 69.6 +/- 2.7 or 32.1 +/- 1.5 nmol X min-1 X mg-1 by the addition of 90 microM doxorubicin or daunorubicin, respectively. However, the anthracycline 5-iminodaunorubicin, in which an imine group has been substituted in the C ring quinone moiety, did not increase superoxide production over control levels. In the presence of rotenone, initial rates of oxygen consumption and superoxide formation were identical under comparable experimental conditions. Furthermore, H2O2 production increased from undetectable control levels to 2.2 +/- 0.3 nmol X min-1 X mg-1 after treatment of submitochondrial particles with doxorubicin (200 microM). The hydroxyl radical, or a related chemical oxidant, was also detected after the addition of an anthracycline to this system by both ESR spectroscopy using the spin trap 5,5-dimethylpyrroline-N-oxide and by gas chromatographic quantitation of CH4 produced from dimethyl sulfoxide. Hydroxyl radical production, which was iron-dependent in this system, occurred in a nonlinear fashion with an initial lag phase due to a requirement for H2O2 accumulation. We also found that two quinonoid anti-cancer agents which produce less cardiotoxicity than the anthracyclines, mitomycin C, and mitoxantrone, stimulated significantly less or no hydroxyl radical production by submitochondrial particles. These experiments suggest that injury to cardiac mitochondria which is produced by anthracycline antibiotics may result from the generation of the hydroxyl radical during anthracycline metabolism by NADH dehydrogenase.

Incubation of rat-liver mitochondria with menadione in the presence of succinate and rotenone resulted in rapid glutathione and NAD(P)H oxidation followed by Ca2+ release and mitochondrial swelling. Ca2+ release, NAD(P)H oxidation and mitochondrial swelling, were also observed in mitochondria from selenium-deficient rats. Glutathione was only slowly oxidized, suggesting that glutathione oxidation, and subsequent NAD(P)H oxidation via the glutathione peroxidase-glutathione reductase system were not required for Ca2+ release by menadione. Isocitrate prevented and reversed Ca2+ release dose-dependently but dicoumarol had no effect indicating that NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase and not DT-diaphorase was responsible for NAD(P)H oxidation. Superoxide anion radical was formed by cyanide-resistant respiration, suggesting that menadione undergoes a one-electron reduction to an autoxidizable semiquinone radical by NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase. The inability of menadione to oxidize glutathione in selenium-deficient mitochondria indicates that the metabolism of the superoxide dismutation product, H2O2, by glutathione peroxidase was probably responsible for the glutathione oxidation in selenium-replete mitochondria.

This study investigates the effects of both adriamycin and its 13-hydroxylated metabolite adriamycinol on superoxide anion production from cardiac sarcosomes and by mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase. Superoxide anion production was determined by using the succinoylated cytochrome c reduction assay. Both adriamycin and adriamycinol stimulated superoxide formation in cardiac sarcosomes and by mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase. In the first case only NADPH was required as a co-factor and in the second case only NADH. From sarcosomes as well as by NADH dehydrogenase, the superoxide production followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics. With both activating enzymatic systems, the Vmax of adriamycinol was found to be similar to that of adriamycin, but the Km for the former anthracycline was higher than for the latter. Adriamycinol also increased the rate of NADPH and NADH consumption, by sarcosomal fractions and by NADH dehydrogenase respectively. At equimolar consentrations, adriamycinol consumed less NADPH and NADH than adriamycin. These results suggest that adriamycinol could contribute to the chronic cardiac toxicity of adriamycin by forming superoxide anions in cardiac cells constituents.

This investigation examined the effect of the anthracycline antitumor agents on reactive oxygen metabolism in rat heart. Oxygen radical production by doxorubicin, daunorubicin, and various anthracycline analogues was determined in heart homogenate, sarcoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and cytosol, the major sites of cardiac damage by the anthracycline drugs. Superoxide production in heart sarcosomes was significantly increased by anthracycline treatment; for doxorubicin, the reaction appeared to follow saturation kinetics with an apparent Km of 112.62 microM, required NADPH as cofactor, was accompanied by the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide, and probably resulted from the transfer of electrons to molecular oxygen by the doxorubicin semiquinone after reduction of the drug by sarcosomal NADPH:cytochrome P-450 reductase (NADPH:ferricytochrome oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.2.4). Superoxide formation was also significantly enhanced by the anthracycline antibiotics in the mitochondrial fraction. Doxorubicin stimulated mitochondrial superoxide formation in a dose-dependent manner that also appeared to follow saturation kinetics (apparent Km of 454.55 microM); however, drug-related superoxide production by mitochondria required NADH rather than NADPH and was significantly increased in the presence of rotenone, which suggested that the proximal portion of the mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase complex [NADH:(acceptor) oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.99.3] was responsible for the reduction of doxorubicin at this site. In heart cytosol, anthracycline-induced superoxide formation and oxygen consumption required NADH and were significantly reduced by allopurinol, a potent inhibitor of xanthine oxidase (xanthine:oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.2.3.2). Reactive oxygen production was detected in all of our studies despite the presence of both superoxide dismutase (superoxide:superoxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.15.1.1) and glutathione peroxidase (glutathione:hydrogen peroxide oxidoreductase, EC 1.11.1.9) in each cardiac fraction. These results suggest that free radical formation by the anthracycline antitumor agents, which occurs in the same myocardial compartments that are subject to drug-induced tissue injury, may damage the heart by exceeding the oxygen radical detoxifying capacity of cardiac mitochondria and sarcoplasmic reticulum.

This study investigated the effect of the anthracycline antibiotics on oxygen radical metabolism by cardiac mitochondrial reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) dehydrogenase [NADH:(acceptor) oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.99.3]. Superoxide formation by NADH dehydrogenase after anthracycline treatment appeared to follow saturation kinetics with an apparent Km of 167.3, 73.3, 64.0, or 47.6 microM for doxorubicin, daunorubicin, rubidazone, or aclacinomycin A, respectively. Superoxide formation by NADH dehydrogenase after doxorubicin treatment occurred with a pH optimum of 7.6 and was accompanied by the production of hydrogen peroxide. Furthermore, drug-related hydroxyl radical generation was detected in this enzyme system by the evolution of methane gas from dimethyl sulfoxide. Hydroxyl radical production proceeded only in the presence of superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide, and trace amounts of iron or a chelate of iron and ethylenediaminetetraacetate and thus was probably the by-product of a transition metal-catalyzed Haber-Weiss reaction. The antitumor agents mitoxantrone and actinomycin D did not significantly enhance reactive oxygen metabolism by NADH dehydrogenase. These results suggest that the specific activation of the anthracycline antibiotics to free radicals by NADH dehydrogenase leads to the formation of a variety of reactive oxygen species that may contribute to the mitochondrial toxicity of these drugs.

Superoxide anion can modulate vascular smooth muscle tone and potentially affect the growth response in vascular disease. The present studies were undertaken to characterize the source of superoxide in rabbit aorta. Rings of aorta (5 mm) were incubated in physiological salt solution (PSS) for 30 min at 37 degrees C in the presence of 10 mM diethyldithiocarbamate (DDC) with or without inhibitors of superoxide-generating systems. Rings were then placed in PSS containing 250 microM lucigenin at 37 degrees C in the presence or absence of inhibitors, and changes in amounts of superoxide were determined by measuring chemiluminescence (units). The inhibitors of xanthine oxidase, oxypurinol (300 microM), and of mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase, rotenone (50 microM), had no significant effect on superoxide levels. An inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, iodonium thiophen, caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of superoxide anion (12.49 +/- 1.48 vs 5.27 +/- 1.81 and 2.30 +/- 0.36 units, control vs 7 microM and 70 microM iodonium thiopen, respectively). A structurally related iodonium compound, diphenyleneiodonium (20 microM), caused a 78% reduction in basal and DDC-evoked superoxide levels. In the presence or absence of DDC, exogenous administration of NADPH (10 microM-1 mM), but not NADP (1 mM), elicited a concentration-dependent rise in superoxide levels that was inhibited by iodonium thiophen. Particulate fractions of whole aortic tissue exhibited NADPH-dependent superoxide production that was inhibited by 1 microM diphenyleneiodonium.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Isolated mitochondria supplemented with succinate or NAD(+)-linked substrates generate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in State 4 and the generation is enhanced by antimycin A, an inhibitor of the respiratory chain. Superoxide is a stoichiometric precursor of mitochondrial H2O2 because the ratio of O2-/H2O2 generation rates is close to 2.0 and is generated by an autoxidizable component in the NADH dehydrogenase and the ubiquinone-cytochrome b site. Lipid peroxidation is a free radical-mediated degradation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Lipid-peroxidation reactions by bovine submitochondrial particles are supported by NADH or NADPH in the presence of ADP-Fe3+ chelate. Electrons from NADH are supplied to the reactions from a component between the substrate site and the rotenone-sensitive site of the NADH dehydrogenase. The peroxidation is dependent on the rate of electron input into the respiratory chain and on the concentration of reduced ubiquinone. Alteration of inner-membrane components and damage to electron-transfer activities of submitochondrial particles are induced by lipid peroxidation. 1-Melhyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+), a metabolite of a parkinsonism-inducing drug, induces NADH-dependent superoxide formation and enhances NADH-dependent lipid peroxidation in submitochondrial particles, indicating that the oxidative stress induced by MPP+ may potentiate its toxicity in dopamine neurons.

Paraquat was reduced to the paraquat radical via complex I in bovine cerebral mitochondria and accelerated lipid peroxidation. Thirty-kilodalton subunit of complex I was considered to be the radical formation site, because of its marked destruction by the paraquat radical. The lipid peroxidation by the paraquat radical was suppressed not only by superoxide dismutase (SOD) but also by mannitol. The destruction of complex I subunits via lipid peroxidation must have been caused by the hydroxyl radical which was formed from the superoxide radical. The same phenomenon was observed by using 1-methylnicotinamide (MNA), which contains the same partial structure as paraquat in itself and is metabolized from nicotinamide in a living body. We observed NADH oxidation by MNA via cerebral complex I (Km = 26.3 mM), and MNA destroyed some complex I subunits, especially 30-kilodalton protein. Paraquat might be useful for studying the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) in vitro, and MNA is expected to be one of the causal substances of PD from the viewpoint of the oxidative stress theory.
