In the present study we examined the effects of menadione, a redox cycling agent, on structural changes of human osteosarcoma line 143B cells. It has been previously reported that menadione can cause necrotic or apoptotic cell death in a concentration- depending manner. In our experimental model, cells were treated with 100 microM menadione for 24 hours. Using electron microscopy technique cell...
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of the combined RF radiation (837 MHz CDMA plus 1950 MHz WCDMA) signal on levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in neuronal cells. Exposure of the combined RF signal was conducted at specific absorption rate values of 2 W/kg of CDMA plus 2 W/kg of WCDMA for 2 h. Co-exposure to combined RF radiation with either H2O2 or me...
To explore the possibility that the affinity of some myeloma proteins for 2,4-dinitrophenyl (DNP) ligands is the consequence of a "strange" (i.e., unexpected) cross-reaction for more natural ligands, a variety of substances (primarily derivatives of purines, pyrimidines, naphthaquinone) were tested for ability to block the binding of [(3)H]-epsilon-DNP-L-lysine by protein 315, an IgA mouse myel...
In vitro exposure of malignant prostate cell lines to ascorbic acid-menadione showed that tumor cells were killed through a mechanism named autoschizis. Experimental animal studies showed that autoschizis is also evident when ascorbic acid-menadione is administered to nude mice with implanted human prostate tumors. Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a known serum marker of prostate tumor cells ...
Among different features of cancer cells, two of them have retained our interest: their nearly universal glycolytic phenotype and their sensitivity towards an oxidative stress. Therefore, we took advantage of these features to develop an experimental approach by selectively exposing cancer cells to an oxidant insult induced by the combination of menadione (vitamin K(3)) and ascorbate (vitamin C...
Exposure of Agrobacterium tumefaciens to menadione, cumene hydroperoxide, and diamide strongly induced trxA expression. The trxA mutant showed a reduction in the aerobic growth rate and plating efficiency and was cytochrome c oxidase negative. Atypically, the mutant has decreased resistance to menadione but an increased H2O2 resistance phenotype.
This study was designed to investigate the mechanism of zone-specific hepatotoxicity due to menadione. Infusion of menadione (64-1000 microM) into perfused livers from fasted rats caused a concentration-dependent increase in O2 uptake. During perfusion in the anterograde direction, menadione (1 mM) increased O2 uptake from 115 +/- 11 to 142 +/- 10 mumol/g/hr within 30 min, followed by a decreas...
The ability of mitochondria to take up and retain Ca2+, and thereby to effect the free intracellular concentration of this ion, is well established. More recently, it has been reported (Lehninger, A. L., Vercesi, A., and Bababunmi, E. A. (1978) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 75, 1690-1696) that the redox state of pyridine nucleotides modulates mitochondrial Ca2+ balance, since the oxidation of...
A simple, specific, accurate, and stability-indicating method was developed and validated for the quantitative determination of menadione sodium bisulfite in the injectable solution formulation. The method is based on zwitterionic hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (ZIC-HILIC) coupled with a photodiode array detector. The desired separation was achieved on the ZIC-HILIC column (250 m...
Altered oxidative stress has long been observed in cancer cells, and this biochemical property of cancer cells represents a specific vulnerability that can be exploited for therapeutic benefit. The major role of an elevated oxidative stress for the efficacy of molecular targeted drugs is under investigation. Menadione is considered an attractive model for the study of oxidative stress, which ca...
