5-Nitroindole (NI), a mutagenic nitroarene, was assayed for cytotoxic effects on rat hepatocytes. After incubation with 25-100 microM NI, the adenylate energy charge of the hepatocytes decreased significantly as a result of the decrease in ATP and the increase in AMP. ATP depletion correlated well with the effects of NI on mitochondrial electron transfer and energy transduction in hepatocytes. Thus, NI (a) inhibited the antimycin-sensitive hepatocyte respiration; (b) inhibited NADH oxidation by disrupted hepatocyte mitochondria; (c) inhibited L-malate-L-glutamate oxidation by ADP-supplemented mitochondria; (d) in the absence of ADP, stimulated the same substrates and also succinate oxidation by mitochondria; (e) released the latent ATPase activity of mitochondrial F1F0-ATP synthase; (f) shifted the redox level of reduced cytochromes (c + c1) and b towards the oxidized state; (g) inhibited NADH oxidation by disrupted mitochondria in the vicinity of the NADH-dehydrogenase flavoprotein; (h) inhibited Ca2+ uptake by mitochondria using L-malate-L-glutamate as an energy source; (i) inhibited valinomycin-induced, endogenously energized K+ uptake, with little effect on the ATP-induced uptake; and (j) inhibited the MgATP-dependent contraction of Ca(2+)-swollen mitochondria. NI inhibited lipid peroxidation in hepatocytes and also in substrate-supplemented liver microsomes and mitochondria, thus ruling out hydroperoxides as a cause of NI cytotoxicity. Long-term incubation with NI produced loss of hepatocyte viability, as indicated by lactate dehydrogenase leakage.

The effects of BRB-I-28 and its derivatives (GLG-V-13, SAZ-VII-22 and SAZ-VII-23), a novel group of antiarrhythmic agents, were investigated on the rat heart mitochondrial respiratory chain. The results indicate that BRB-I-28 and its derivatives have concentration-dependent inhibitory effects on NADH oxidase and NADH-CoQ reductase (complex I), but they have no significant effects on succinate oxidase, succinate dehydrogenase (complex II), CoQ-cytochrome c reductase (complex III), cytochrome c oxidase (complex IV), and NADH-K3Fe(CN)6 reductase. The site of inhibition of BRB-I-28 and its derivatives on the respiratory chain was localized between flavoprotein n (FPn) and CoQ, which is similar to the effect of rotenone and several other antiarrhythmic drugs such as amiodarone, propranolol, etc. BRB-I-28 and its derivatives also have significant inhibitory effects on mitochondrial ATPase activity as reported for other antiarrhythmic drugs such as amiodarone, propranolol, quinidine, and lidocaine. However, BRB-I-28 and its derivatives have no direct effects on sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase activity. The inhibitory effects of BRB-I-28 and its derivatives on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation may result in the depletion of ATP. This effect, in combination with their effects on Na+,K(+)-ATPase, could possibly produce an increase in Ca2+ concentration in cytosol. This may be another mechanism by which these DHBCN derivatives produce an increase in systemic arterial blood pressure and contractile force of isolated cardiac muscle. On the other hand, inhibition on mitochondrial respiration may account for some of the potential toxic effects of these diheterabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane derivatives.

Proteomic techniques were used to identify cardiac proteins from whole heart homogenate and heart mitochondria of Fisher 344/Brown Norway F1 rats, which suffer protein nitration as a consequence of biological aging. Soluble proteins from young (5 mo old) and old (26 mo old) animals were separated by one- and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. One- and two-dimensional Western blots with an anti-nitrotyrosine antibody show an age-related increase in the immunoresponse of a few specific proteins, which were identified by nanoelectrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (NSI-MS/MS). Complementary proteins were immunoprecipitated with an immobilized anti-nitrotyrosine antibody followed by NSI-MS/MS analysis. A total of 48 proteins were putatively identified. Among the identified proteins were alpha-enolase, alpha-aldolase, desmin, aconitate hydratase, methylmalonate semialdehyde dehydrogenase, 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase, acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase, GAPDH, malate dehydrogenase, creatine kinase, electron-transfer flavoprotein, manganese-superoxide dismutase, F1-ATPase, and the voltage-dependent anion channel. Some contaminating blood proteins including transferrin and fibrinogen beta-chain precursor showed increased levels of nitration as well. MS/MS analysis located nitration at Y105 of the electron-transfer flavoprotein. Among the identified proteins, there are important enzymes responsible for energy production and metabolism as well as proteins involved in the structural integrity of the cells. Our results are consistent with age-dependent increased oxidative stress and with free radical-dependent damage of proteins. Possibly the oxidative modifications of the identified proteins contribute to the age-dependent degeneration and functional decline of heart proteins.

To probe the mitochondrial involvement in Mn intoxicity, aliquots of brain mitochondria samples from control and treated (30 mg/kg manganese chloride, ip) male Sprague-Dawley rats were separated by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) and searched for protein abundance changes induced by Mn exposure. The electrophoretic separation resolved over 300 distinct spots as visualized by colloidal Coomassie blue (CCB), of which three spots were induced and three spots were inhibited after Mn exposure in all the five brain mitochondria preparations. Analysis by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight (MALDI-TOF) indicated that these spots are calcium-transporting ATPase type 2C (ATP-dependent Ca(2+) pump PMR1); 60-kDa heat shock protein; Mitochondrial transmembrane GTPase FZO1B; ATP-binding cassette, sub-family b; Long-chain-fatty-acid-CoA ligase; ATP Synthase Beta Chain; and Succinate dehydrogenase flavoprotein subunit. The changes of the mitochondrial ATP synthase beta-subunit and Succinate dehydrogenase flavoprotein subunit indicate an effected level of mitochondrial ATP content and/or ATP-producing capacity. This result provides suggestion that respiratory chain complexes were implicated in the mitochondrial dysfunction induced by Mn intoxicity. And the changes of 60-kDa heat shock protein and ATP-dependent Ca(2+) pump PMR1 expression indicate that the Ca homeostasis and stress effect were involved in Mn intoxicity.

Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major obstacle to successful cancer treatment. To understand the mechanism of MDR, many cancer cell lines have been established, and various mechanisms of resistance, such as ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter-mediated drug efflux, have been discovered. Previously, a MDR cell line MCF7/AdVp3000 was selected from breast cancer cell line MCF7 against Adriamycin, and overexpression of ABCG2 was thought to cause MDR in this derivative cell line. However, ectopic overexpression of ABCG2 in MCF7 cells could not explain the extremely high drug resistance level of the selected MCF7/AdVp3000 cells. We hypothesized that MCF7/AdVp3000 cells must have other resistance mechanisms selected by Adriamycin. To test this hypothesis, we compared the global protein profiles between MCF7 and MCF7/AdVp3000 cells. Following two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry analysis, 17 protein spots with differential levels between the two cell lines were identified. Although 14-3-3sigma, keratin 18, keratin 19, ATP synthase beta, protein disulfide isomerase, heat shock protein 27, cathepsin D, triose-phosphate isomerase, peroxiredoxin 6, and electron transfer flavoprotein were increased, nm23/H1, peroxiredoxin 2, nucleophosmin 1/B23, and inorganic pyrophosphatase were decreased in MCF7/AdVp3000 cells. The differential levels of these proteins were validated using Western blot. Furthermore, functional validation showed that the elevated 14-3-3sigma expression contributes considerably to the observed drug resistance in MCF7/AdVp3000 cells. We, thus, conclude that these proteins likely contribute to the resistance selected in the MCF7/AdVp3000 cells, and their altered expression in tumors may cause clinical resistance to chemotherapy.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) DNA adducts have been associated with carcinogenesis, which is accompanied by multiple alterations in gene expression. We used two-dimensional electrophoresis to distinguish protein expression changes induced in MCF-7 cells by individual PAH (B[a]P and DB[a,l]P) and PAH mixtures (coal tar extract [SRM 1597] and diesel exhaust extract [SRM 1975]). Spots of interest were identified by MALDI-TOF-TOF. Our results have shown alterations in the expression of heat-shock proteins, cytoskeletal proteins, DNA associated proteins, and glycolytic and mitochondrial proteins. The proteins that were universally altered in expression were actin cytoplasmic 1, tubulin alpha and myosin light chain alkali, cyclophilin B, and heterogeneous ribonucleoprotein B1 (a protein involved in access to telomerase and mRNA maturation). Additional proteins with altered expression include histone H2A.1, heat-shock protein 70-2, galectin-3, nucleoside diphosphate kinase, ATP synthase, and electron transfer flavoprotein. While sharing similarities, each PAH treatment exhibited a unique proteomic fingerprint.

Although digitalis has been used in clinical treatment extensively, the precise mechanism of its toxic actions on cardiovascular system remained unclear, it would be of interest to study the differential proteomic analysis of vascular endothelial cells in response to toxic concentrations of digitalis thus to provide new agents for treatment of digitalis-induced cytotoxicity. We employed human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) as our model system. HUVEC were exposed to increasing concentrations (0.1 nM-10 microM) of digoxin at 12-96 h intervals. Cell viability tests revealed that digoxin played dual effects on cell growth. Apoptosis detection confirmed that apoptosis was primarily responsible for digoxin-induced cell death. Proteomics analysis further revealed that the digoxin-induced apoptosis was accompanied by regulated expression of ATP synthase beta chain, cystatin A, electron transfer flavoprotein, heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins H3, lamin A, profilin-1, proteasome subunit 5, succinyl-CoA ligase beta chain and heat shock protein 60 (HSP60). Deep study on the overexpression of HSP60 confirmed that HSP60 exerted a protective role in digoxin-induced apoptosis through inhibition of caspase-3 activity in HUVEC. These results provided an impetus for further delineation of mechanism of digoxin-induced cytotoxicity and offered new agents that help attenuate its toxicity.

Growth hormone (GH) mRNA and protein have recently been demonstrated in the rat lung throughout the period of alveolarization (day 4-14 postnatally). The functional significance of this finding was therefore assessed, by determining the effects of GH mRNA knockout using aerosolized antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) directed against the GH gene. In a preliminary experiment, the effectiveness of the antisense GH ODN was demonstrated in a lung Type II epithelial cell line (L2 cells), in which constitutive GH mRNA expression was completely abolished by GH ODN transfection. Administration of the aerosolized GH ODN to 4-day-old rats for 10 days was accompanied by a widespread presence of its delivery liposomes within lung cells. Aerosolized GH ODN treatment decreased lung concentrations of IGF (insulin-like growth factor)-1 and increased concentrations of albumin, calcyclin binding protein, superoxide dismutase, RNA binding protein motif 3, and the alpha- and beta-subunits of ATP synthase and electron transfer flavoprotein. At least 32 other proteins (identified by 2D gel electrophoresis) were also significantly affected by the antisense GH ODN treatment. By changing the lung proteome, these results indicate hitherto unsuspected autocrine/paracrine actions of GH in developmental lung function.

The mutated K-ras gene is involved in approximately 30% of human cancers. In order to search for K-ras oncogene-induced modulators in lung tissues of K-ras transgenic mice, we performed microarray and proteomics (LC/ESI-MS/MS) analysis. Genes (RAB27b RAS family, IL-1RA, IL-33, chemokine ligand 6, epiregulin, EGF-like domain and cathepsin) related to cancer development (Wnt signaling pathway) and inflammation (chemokine/cytokine signaling pathway, Toll receptor signaling) were up-regulated while genes (troponin, tropomodulin 2, endothelial lipase, FGFR4, integrin alpha8 and adenylate cyclase 8) related to the tumor suppression such as p53 pathway, TGF-beta signaling pathway and cadherin signaling pathway were down-regulated by K-ras oncogene. Proteomics approach revealed that up-regulated proteins in lung adenomas of K-ras mice were classified as follows: proteins related to the metabolism/catabolism (increased from 7 to 22% by K-ras gene), proteins related to translation/transcription and nucleotide (from 4 to 6%), proteins related to signal transduction (from 3 to 5%), proteins related to phosphorylation (from 1 to 2%). ATP synthase, Ras oncogene family, cytochrome c oxidase, flavoprotein, TEF 1, adipoprotein A-1 BP, glutathione oxidase, fatty acid BP 4, diaphorase 1, MAPK4 and transgelin were up-regulated by K-ras oncogene. However, integrin alpha1, Ras-interacting protein (Rain), endothelin-converting enzyme-1d and splicing factor 3b were down-regulated. These studies suggest that genes related to cancer development and inflammation were up-regulated while genes related to the tumor suppression were down-regulated by K-ras, resulting in the tumor growth. Putative biomarkers such as cell cycle related genes (Cdc37), cancer cell adhesion (Glycam 1, integrin alpha8, integrin alphaX and Clec4n), signal transduction (Tlr2, IL-33, and Ccbp2), migration (Ccr1, Ccl6, and diaphorase 1 (Cyb5r3) and cancer development (epiregulin) can be useful for diagnosis and as prognosis markers and some of the target molecules can be applied for prevention of cancer.

An increasing number of experiments have found anomalies in mitochondria in the brains of psychotics, which suggests that mitochondrial dysfunction or abnormal cerebral energy metabolism might play an important role in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia (SCZ). We adopted a proteomic approach to identify the differential effects on the cerebral cortex and hippocampus mitochondrial protein expression of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats by comparing exposure to typical and atypical antipsychotic medications. Differential mitochondrial protein expressions were assessed using two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis for three groups with Chlorpromazine (CPZ), Clozapine (CLZ), quetiapine (QTP) and a control group. A total of 14 proteins, of which 6 belong to the respiratory electron transport chain (ETC) of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), showed significant changes in quantity including NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone) 1 alpha subcomplex 10 (Ndufa10), NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone) flavoprotein 2 (Ndufv2), NADH dehydrogenase (ubiquinone) Fe-S protein 3 (Ndufs3), F1-ATPase beta subunit (Atp5b), ATPase, H+ transporting, lysosomal, beta 56/58 kDa, isoform 2 (Atp6v1b2) and ATPase, H+ transporting, V1 subunit A, isoform 1 (Atp6v1a1). The differential proteins subjected to 2D were assessed for levels of mRNA using quantitative real time PCR (Q-RT-PCR), and we also made partial use of Western blotting for assessing differential expression. The results of our study may help to explain variations in SD rats as well as in human response to antipsychotic drugs. In addition, they should improve our understanding of both the curative effects and side effects of antipsychotics and encourage new directions in SCZ research.
