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)

We report a transient adaptation to the oxidative stress of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) exposure in several mammalian cell lines: Chinese hamster ovary fibroblast (CHO) cells, HA-1 cells (a defined CHO subclone), C3H 10T1/2 cells (embryonic mouse fibroblasts), V79 cells (Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts), and Clone 9 liver cells (rat liver epithelial cells). Up to 40-fold adaptive increases in resistance to H2O2 challenge occurred following pretreatment with relatively low H2O2 "priming" doses, from as little as 1.9% cell viability for untreated cells to as much as 76.5% viability for H2O2 pretreated cells. Detailed studies with HA-1 cells revealed the following pattern of responses to H2O2: very low H2O2 concentrations of 0.1 to 0.5 mumol/10(7) cells (3 to 15 microM) stimulated cell growth by 25 to 45%; low H2O2 concentrations of 2-5 mumol/10(7) cells (120 to 150 microM) induced a temporary growth-arrest, a lengthening of cell cycle from 18 h to approximately 26 h, and marked adaptive increases in H2O2 resistance; intermediate H2O2 concentrations of 9 to 14 mumol/10(7) cells (250 to 400 microM) caused permanent growth-arrest (i.e., permanent loss of replicative or divisional competence) with no evidence of necrosis; high H2O2 concentrations of 30 mumol/10(7) cells or greater (> or = 1 mM) caused an apoptotic-like necrotic cell death and destruction. The adaptive response to low H2O2 concentrations of 2-5 mumol/10(7) (120 to 150 microM) was maximal 18 h after pretreatment of HA-1 cells, declined thereafter toward baseline sensitivity, and was observed with both 7-day fix and stain procedures and clonogenic viability assays. Transient adaptation following H2O2 pretreatment of 4.15 mumol/10(7) (150 microM) involved the de novo synthesis of at least 20 proteins and was blocked by the translation inhibitor, cycloheximide. During the 18-h adaptation in HA-1 cells proteins were synthesized in three phases; early (0-4 h), middle (4-8 h), and late (8-15 h). No H2O2 response proteins were synthesized beyond 18 h after pretreatment, by which time adaptation had already maximized. Selective translational inhibition of the early, middle, or late proteins revealed that all three sets were necessary for a maximal adaptive increase in H2O2 resistance. Northern blot and enzyme activity analyses revealed no significant increases in transcription or translation of the classical antioxidant enzymes catalase, glutathione peroxidase, phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase, Cu, Zn superoxide dismutase, or Mn superoxide dismutase in H2O2-adapted HA-1 cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
