Ciclopirox protects mitochondria from hydrogen peroxide toxicity.
1 The mitochondrial respiratory chain produces reactive oxygen species (ROS) during normal electron transport. Despite producing ROS, mitochondria are vulnerable to oxidative stress. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been associated with many degenerative diseases, making it important to identify compounds that protect mitochondria from ROS-mediated toxicity. Here we report that ciclopirox (CPX) bl...
متن کاملPyruvate protects neurons against hydrogen peroxide-induced toxicity.
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is suspected to be involved in numerous brain pathologies such as neurodegenerative diseases or in acute injury such as ischemia or trauma. In this study, we examined the ability of pyruvate to improve the survival of cultured striatal neurons exposed for 30 min to H2O2, as estimated 24 hr later by the 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide assay. P...
متن کاملAstrocytes protect neurons from hydrogen peroxide toxicity.
Recent reports indicate that neurons are particularly sensitive to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The present study was undertaken to investigate the putative role of astrocytes in the modulation of the neurotoxic effect of H2O2. The exposure to H2O2 of cultured striatal neurons from mouse embryos induced a concentration-dependent (10-1000 microM) cell death as estimated 24 hr later. Two methods wer...
متن کاملCarbonic anhydrase III protects cells from hydrogen peroxide-induced apoptosis.
Carbonic anhydrase III (CA III; EC 4.2.1.1) is a cytoplasmic enzyme that exhibits a relatively low carbon dioxide hydratase activity. It is expressed at a very high level in skeletal muscle, where physical exercise has been shown to increase free radical production. In this work we show the effect of overexpression of CA III on cellular response to oxidative stress. Rat CA III cDNA was transfec...
متن کاملMicroRNA-145 Protects Cardiomyocytes against Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2)-Induced Apoptosis through Targeting the Mitochondria Apoptotic Pathway
MicroRNAs, a class of small and non-encoding RNAs that transcriptionally or post-transcriptionally modulate the expression of their target genes, has been implicated as critical regulatory molecules in many cardiovascular diseases, including ischemia/reperfusion induced cardiac injury. Here, we report microRNA-145, a tumor suppressor miRNA, can protect cardiomyocytes from hydrogen peroxide H₂O₂...
