Enhancement of Oxidative Cell Injury and Antitumor Effects of Localized 44°CHyperthermia upon Combination with Respiratory Hyperoxia and Xanthine Oxidase1

چکیده
The effects of respiratory hyperoxia (RH) and xanthine oxidase (XO) during localized hyperthermia (HT) were investigated by determining markers of oxidative damage to lipids and proteins and tumor growth. Anesthetized rats with s.c. DS-sarcomas underwent one of the following treatments: (a) localized saline-bath HT (60 min, 44 C i,(A) HT + RH (100% O2); and (e) HT + RH + XO (15 units/kg i.v.). Sham-treated animals served as controls. Tumors were investigated for: (a) thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance formation and protein-bound 4-hydroxynonenal, as indicators of lipid peroxidation; (¿>) reactive oxygen-mediated protein modifications; (c) apoptosis; and (d) tumor volume growth. Upon treatment, increases in thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances, proteinbound 4-hydroxynonenal, protein-associated carbonyl functions, and number of cells undergoing apoptosis were found in tumor tissue, together with an inhibition of tumor growth. When treatment groups were com pared, effects in the group HT + RH + XO were generally most pro nounced. These findings indicate that the antitumor effect of HT is at least partially mediated through the selective induction of lipid peroxidation and oxidative injury in tumor cells, leading to apoptosis. This effect was enhanced by adding RH or RH + XO, presumably due to enhanced tissue damage following an increased formation of reactive oxygen species, with higher levels of lipid peroxidation and protein oxidation.

Time course changes of oxidative stress and inflammation in hyperoxia-induced acute lung injury in rats
Objective(s):Therapies with high levels of oxygen are commonly used in the management of critical care. However, prolonged exposure to hyperoxia can cause acute lung injury. Although oxidative stress and inflammation are purported to play an important role in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury, the exact mechanisms are still less known in the hyperoxic acute lung injury (HALI). Materials ...

Asiaticoside attenuates hyperoxia-induced lung injury in vitro andin vivo
Objective(s): Asiaticoside (AS) displays anti-inflammation, and anti-apoptosis effect, but the role of AS in hyperoxia-induced lung injury (HILI) treatment is undefined. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of AS on HILI on premature rats and alveolar type II (AEC II) cells.Materials and Methods: Sprague-Dawley...

Hyperoxic lung injury is pathologically characterized by alveolar edema, interlobular septal edema, hyaline membrane disease, lung inflammation, and alveolar hemorrhage. Although the precise mechanism by which hyperoxia causes lung injury is not well defined, oxidative stress, epithelial cell death, and proinflammatory cytokines are thought to be involved. Probucol-a commercially available drug...

Abstract Introduction: Resent studies have been shown beneficial effects of hyperoxia pretreatment against ischemia-reperfusion injury in different organs. The aim of the present study was to investigate early and late effects of normobaric hyperoxia (≥95% O2) pretreatment on ischemia-reperfusion injuries in isolated rat hearts. Methods: Following 60 and 180 minutes of hyperoxia, rat hearts w...
