DNA-mediated redox signaling for transcriptional activation of SoxR.
In enteric bacteria, the cellular response to oxidative stress is activated by oxidation of the iron-sulfur clusters in SoxR, which then induces transcription of soxS, turning on a battery of defense genes. Here we demonstrate both in vitro and in cells that activation of SoxR can occur in a DNA-mediated reaction with guanine radicals, an early genomic signal of oxidative stress, serving as the...
متن کاملBiochemical mechanism of oxidative damage by redox-cycling drugs.
Biochemical mechanisms of production of redox intermediates of redox-cycling drugs include: photochemical events, either photoionization process or electron transfer from photoexcited states; electron exchange of reduced form of a drug with the oxy state of oxygen-binding hemoproteins; oxidation by catalytic metal centers (oxidases, peroxidases, oxygenases) of the reduced forms of drugs; or ele...
متن کاملActivation of hepatocyte protein kinase C by redox-cycling quinones.
The effects of quinone-generated active oxygen species on rat hepatocyte protein kinase C were investigated. The specific activity of cytosolic protein kinase C was increased 2-3-fold in hepatocytes incubated with the redox-cycling quinones, menadione, duroquinone or 2,3-dimethoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone, without alterations in particulate protein kinase C specific activity or Ca2+- and lipid-indepe...
متن کاملLysosomal Oxidative Stress Cytotoxicity Induced By Para-phenylenediamine Redox Cycling In Hepatocytes
It has already been reported that muscle necrosis induced by various phenylenediamine derivatives are correlated with their autoxidation rate. Now in a more detailed investigation of the cytotoxic mechanism using a model system of isolated hepatocytes and ring-methylated structural isomer durenediamine (DD) we have shown that under aerobic conditions, phenylenediamine induced cytotoxicity and R...
