Lysophosphatidylcholine enhances superoxide anions production via endothelial NADH/NADPH oxidase.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) including superoxide anions (O2(-)) play a key role in atherogenesis, and endothelial cells have the ability to generate ROS. To investigate the enzymatic sources of ROS and the effects of lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), an atherogenic lipid, we measured ROS production in cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) by the lucigenin-enhanced chemiluminescence (C...
متن کاملStable compounds of cigarette smoke induce endothelial superoxide anion production via NADPH oxidase activation.
OBJECTIVE Endothelial dysfunction is an early manifestation of cigarette smoke (CS) toxicity. We have previously demonstrated that CS impairs nitric oxide (NO)-mediated endothelial function via increased generation of superoxide anion (O2*). In these studies, we investigated whether stable compounds present in CS activate specific pathways responsible for the increased endothelial O2* productio...
متن کاملRole of increased production of superoxide anions by NAD(P)H oxidase and xanthine oxidase in prolonged endotoxemia.
Superoxide anions (O2-) are supposedly involved in the pathogenesis of endothelial dysfunction. We investigated whether the enhanced formation of O2- is involved in the attenuation of endothelium-dependent relaxation induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Rats were injected with LPS (10 mg/kg IP), the aorta was removed after 12 or 30 hours, and generation of O2-, H2O2, and ONOO- was measured usin...
متن کاملLysophosphatidylcholine increases vascular superoxide anion production via protein kinase C activation.
We tested the hypothesis that lysophosphatidylcholine (lyso-PC) could activate protein kinase C in intact vascular segments and sought to examine some of the physiological consequences of this activation. In segments of rabbit aorta, the patterns of protein phosphorylation determined by two-dimensional electrophoresis stimulated by lyso-PC and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) were sim...
متن کاملSuperoxide anions and endothelial cell proliferation in normoglycemia and hyperglycemia.
-Oxygen free radicals are believed to play a key role in cellular proliferation, and increased concentrations of these molecules have been implicated in the pathogenesis of endothelial dysfunction in diabetes mellitus. Our aim was to study the role of superoxide anions in endothelial cell proliferation under conditions of normoglycemia and hyperglycemia. Human aortic endothelial cells (HAECs) a...
