Response to oxidative stress of AML12 hepatocyte cells with knockout of methionine sulfoxide reductases.

ABSTRACT: Methionine sulfoxide reductases are enzymes that reduce methionine oxidation in the cell. In mammals there are three B-type reductases that act on the R-diastereomer of methionine sulfoxide, and one A-type reductase (MSRA) that acts on the S-diastereomer. Unexpectedly, knocking out the four genes in the mouse protected from oxidative stresses such as ischemia-reperfusion injury and paraquat. To elucidate the mechanism by which lack of the reductases protects against oxidative stresses, we aimed to create a cell culture model with AML12 cells, a differentiated hepatocyte cell line. We employed CRISPR/Cas9 to create lines lacking the four individual reductases. All were viable and their susceptibility to oxidative stresses was the same as the parental strain. The triple knockout lacking all
