HA-1 hamster fibroblasts receiving fresh media every 24 h were continuously passaged in progressively increasing O2 concentrations for 18 mo (designated O2R95). These cells were significantly more resistant than parental HA-1 to clonogenic inactivation mediated by 95% O2 without media replacement. The O2R95 cell line exhibited increases in the activities of catalase (CAT), Mn superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn SOD), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx). O2R95 cells demonstrated uniformly distributed increased staining for CAT, MnSOD, Cu,Zn SOD, and GPx proteins, as determined by immunohistochemistry. Cellular resistance to and metabolism of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4HNE), a toxic byproduct of lipid peroxidation implicated in mechanisms of O2 toxicity, was examined in HA-1 and O2R95 cell lines. O2R95 cells were significantly more resistant to 4HNE cytotoxicity, which was accompanied by a significant increase in 4HNE metabolism. O2R95 cells also demonstrated an increase in total glutathione (GSH) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity, an enzymatic system believed to be involved with 4HNE metabolism. Furthermore, homogenates from O2R95 cells consumed greater quantities of 4HNE in the presence of NADPH (but not NADH, NAD+, or NADP+), suggesting that an enzyme(s) utilizing NADPH contributes to 4HNE metabolism, resistance to 95% O2 and 4HNE as well as increased total GSH, antioxidant enzyme activities, and NADPH-dependent metabolism of 4HNE, persisted in O2R95 cells for 75 days of growth in 21% O2. These findings are compatible with the hypothesis that aldehydic byproducts of lipid peroxidation contribute to mechanisms of O2 toxicity and the selective pressure exerted by exposure of cells to hyperoxia.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Cell death by oxidative stress has been proposed to be based on suicidal NAD depletion, typically followed by ATP depletion, caused by the NAD-consuming enzyme poly(ADP)ribose polymerase, which becomes activated by the presence of excessive DNA-strand breaks. In this study NAD+, NADH and ATP levels as well as DNA-strand breaks (assayed by alkaline elution) were determined in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells treated with either H2O2 or hyperoxia to a level of more than 80% clonogenic cell killing. With H2O2 extensive DNA damage and NAD depletion were observed, while at a higher H2O2 dosage ATP also became depleted. In agreement with results of others, the poly(ADP)ribose polymerase inhibitor 3-aminobenzamide completely prevented NAD depletion. However, both H2O2-induced ATP depletion and cell killing were unaffected by the inhibitor, suggesting that ATP depletion may be a more critical factor than NAD depletion in H2O2-induced killing of CHO cells. With hyperoxia, only moderate DNA damage (2 X background) and no NAD depletion were observed, whereas ATP became largely (70%) depleted. We conclude that (1) there is no direct relation between ATP and NAD depletion in CHO cells subjected to toxic doses of H2O2 or hyperoxia; (2) H2O2-induced NAD depletion is not by itself sufficient to kill CHO cells; (3) killing of CHO cells by hyperoxia is not due to NAD depletion, but may be due to depletion of ATP.

The effect of hyperoxia on lactate production and release and the mitochondrial NAD+-to-NADH ratio was studied in the in situ canine gastrocnemius to determine whether elevated PO2 altered metabolic regulation. Dogs breathed either air (21% O2) [arterial O2 partial pressure (PaO2) 90 mmHg; n = 8] or hyperoxia (100% O2) (PaO2 546 mmHg; n = 8). The left muscle was stimulated for 10 min at 3 Hz and then both right and left muscles were quick frozen in N2. Hyperoxia did not affect O2 uptake, blood flow, and developed tension. Activity increased glucose 6-phosphate (G-6-P), D-fructose 6-phosphate (F-6-P), NH3, lactate, and F-6-P/F-1,6-P in both treatment groups. No significant differences in arterial or venous lactate, muscle lactate, glucose uptake, or glycogen depletion were noted in hyperoxia. Cytoplasmic NAD+/NADH was in a more oxidized state in hyperoxia at rest but not during activity. The increase in NH3 with stimulation was significantly larger in hyperoxia. Activity decreased alpha-ketoglutarate in hyperoxia but not in air. At stimulation, the estimated mitochondrial NAD+/NADH increased in both groups suggesting that hypoxia was not present. Thus hyperoxia did not affect mitochondrial redox state or lactate production and release in active muscle.

A previous report from this laboratory (Bender, D.A., Magboul, B.I. and Wynick, D. (1982) Brit. J. Nutr. 48, 119-127) suggested that the hydrolysis of the nicotinamide nucleotides NAD and NADP may be an important factor in controlling the tissue content of these coenzymes. Further studies presented here support this suggestion. Both nuclear poly(ADPribose) synthetase and microsomal NAD glycohydrolase showed activity towards both NAD+ and NADP+, and the two nucleotides were mutually competitive. The reduced nucleotides, NADH and NADPH, were not substrates for either enzyme. In rats that were maintained for 24 h under conditions of hypoxia (O2/N2, 1:9) there was an increase in the proportion of nicotinamide nucleotides present in the liver in the reduced form, and an increase in the total concentration of nucleotides in the liver. In rats that were maintained for 24 h under conditions of hyperoxia (O2/N2, 7:3) there was no change in either the proportion of nicotinamide nucleotides in the liver present in the reduced form or in the total tissue control of the nucleotides. There was an increase in the urinary excretion of kynurenine suggesting an increase in the oxidative metabolism of tryptophan.

Sublethal exposure to hyperoxia in vivo induces oxidative damage that leads to destruction of the pulmonary endothelium, pleural effusion, and eventual pulmonary fibrosis. DNA is a potential target for reactive oxygen species in this system; the principle types of damage to DNA during hyperoxia are single-strand breaks and oxidant damage to bases. Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation, a posttranslational modification of nuclear proteins, is stimulated by strand breaks in DNA and is required for effective repair of many types of DNA lesions. In this study we have measured lung tissue NAD+ and poly(ADP-ribose) concentrations in response to hyperoxia and niacin deficiency in rats. Male weaning Fischer-344 rats consumed niacin-deficient (ND) or niacin-replete pair-fed (PF) diets for 7 d. Rats from each diet group (n = 6) were then housed in normobaric 85% oxygen for 5 d. Normoxic controls were maintained in air. Hyperoxia increased lung poly(ADP-ribose) concentration by 35% in PF rats, but did not significantly increase levels in ND rats. Niacin deficiency decreased lung NAD+ in normoxic rats, but surprisingly, this deficit was partially reversed by hyperoxia. Liver NAD+ levels increased by 21% during hyperoxia in both diet groups. Heart and kidney NAD+ were unaffected by hyperoxia. Blood was the only tissue measured in which NAD+ was decreased by hyperoxia. Dietary treatment did not affect the increase in the lung wt/b. wt. ratio resulting from hyperoxia. This is the first report in the literature of lung tissue poly(ADP-ribose) measurement. Results show that hyperoxia causes a marked increase in lung poly (ADP-ribose) concentration, but also suggest an adaptation of whole-animal NAD+ metabolism to hyperoxia during niacin deficiency.
