Extracellular-superoxide dismutase [EC 1.15.1.1] (EC-SOD) is a secretory glycoprotein with high affinity for heparin. This enzyme locates in blood vessel walls at a high enough level to suppress oxidative stress under normal conditions. EC-SOD is the major SOD isozyme in plasma, anchored to heparan sulfate proteoglycans in the glycocalyx of endothelial cell surfaces. Plasma EC-SOD is heterogene...
PURPOSE To evaluate corneal endothelial morphology in mice without secreted extracellular superoxide dismutase (SOD) in normal ageing and in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation model and to measure the contents of SOD isoenzymes in the mouse cornea and the superoxide radical concentrations in corneas with and without extracellular SOD. METHODS The central corneal endothelium of wi...
Porphyromonas gingivalis is a gram-negative, obligate anaerobe strongly associated with chronic adult periodontitis. A previous study has demonstrated that this organism requires superoxide dismutase (SOD) for its modest aerotolerance. In this study, we have constructed a mutant deficient in SOD activity by insertional inactivation as well as a sod::lacZ reporter translational fusion construct ...
Extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD), the only known enzymatic scavenger of extracellular superoxide, may modulate reactions of nitric oxide (NO) in the lungs by preventing reactions between superoxide and NO. The regulation of EC-SOD has not been examined in developing lungs. We hypothesize that EC-SOD plays a pivotal role in the response to increased oxygen tension and NO in the neonat...
It has previously been suggested that reactive oxygen species (ROS) are involved in the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory diseases, which entails the initial activation of pro-inflammatory cytokines to facilitate leukocyte transmigration. The present study investigated whether intracellular superoxide dismutase (SOD) suppressed monocyte endothelial trafficking and transmigration. Human umbil...
Manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) is a primary antioxidant enzyme whose expression is essential for life in oxygen. Mn-SOD has tumor suppressor activity in a wide variety of tumors and transformed cell systems. Our initial observations revealed that Mn-SOD expression was inversely correlated with expression of AP-2 transcription factors in normal human fibroblasts and their SV-40 transfor...
Blood vessels express 3 isoforms of superoxide dismutase (SOD): cytosolic or copper-zinc SOD (CuZn-SOD), manganese SOD (Mn-SOD) localized in mitochondria, and an extracellular form of CuZn-SOD (EC-SOD). Because there are no selective pharmacological inhibitors of individual SOD isoforms, the functional importance of the different SODs has been difficult to define. Recent molecular approaches, p...
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) fusion of TAT was proved to be radioprotective in our previous work. On that basis, a bifunctional recombinant protein which was the fusion of glutathione S-transferase (GST), SOD, and TAT was constructed and named GST-TAT-SOD. Herein we report the investigation of the cytotoxicity, cell-penetrating activity, and in vitro radioprotective effect of GST-TAT-SOD compared...
When cultured anaerobically in a chemically defined medium that was treated with Chelex-100 to lower its trace metal content, Streptococcus mutans OMZ176 had no apparent requirement for manganese or iron. Manganese or iron was necessary for aerobic cultivation in deep static cultures. During continuous aerobic cultivation in a stirred chemostat, iron did not support the growth rate achieved wit...
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of swimming training on the changes in three superoxide dismutase (SOD) isoenzymes in mice. The trained mice underwent a 6-wk swimming program (1 h/day, 5 days/wk) in water at 35-36 degrees C. Immunoreactive extracellular SOD (EC-SOD), copper- and zinc-containing SOD (CuZn-SOD), and manganese-containing SOD (Mn-SOD) contents and th...
