Global Gene Expression Analysis Reveals Differences in Cellular Responses to Hydroxyl- and Superoxide Anion Radical-...

ABSTRACT: Global Gene Expression Analysis Reveals Differences in Cellular Responses to Hydroxyl- and Superoxide-induced Oxidative Stress in Caco-2 Cells. Reactive oxygen species-induced oxidative stress in the colon is involved in inflammatory bowel diseases and is suggested to be associated with colorectal cancer risk. However, our insight in molecular responses to different oxygen radicals is still fragmentary. Therefore, we studied global gene expression by an extensive time serie (0.08, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, or 24 hours ) analyses in human colon cancer (Caco-2) cells after exposure to H2O2 or menadione, leading to the formation of HO. or O2.- radicals respectively. Next to gene expression, induction of pathways and correlations with related phenotypic markers (oxidative DNA damage, cell cycle arrest) was investigated. Gene expression analysis resulted in 1404 differentially expressed genes upon H2O2 challenge and 979 genes after menadione treatment. Time-dependent co-regulated genes immediately showed a pulse-like response to HO. formation while the O2.--induced expression is not restored over 24 hours. Pathway analyses demonstrated that the difference in the modulation of gene expression is also reflected in regulation of pathways by HO. and O2.-: H2O2 immediately influences pathways involved in the immune function, while menadione constantly regulated cell cycle-related pathways. Altogether, this study offers a novel and detailed insight in differential time-dependent oxidative stress response, but most importantly, shows that effects of HO. and O2.- can also be discriminated regarding their modulation of particular carcinogenesis-related mechanisms. Keywords: Comparison of genome-wide gene expression between different time points for H2O2 and menadione.

Project description:N-nitroso compounds (NOC) may be implicated in human colon carcinogenesis, but the toxicological mechanisms involved have not been elucidated. Since it was previously demonstrated that nitrosamines and nitrosamides, representing two classes of NOC, induce distinct gene expression effects in colon cells that are particularly related to oxidative stress, we hypothesized that different radical mechanisms are involved. Using ESR spectroscopy, we investigated radical generating properties of genotoxic NOC concentrations in human colon adenocarcinoma cells (Caco-2). Cells were exposed to nitrosamides (N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, N-methyl-N-nitrosurea) or nitrosamines (N-nitrosodiethylamine, N-nitrosodimethylamine, N-nitrosopiperidine, N-nitrosopyrrolidine). Nitrosamines caused formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and carbon centered radicals which was further stimulated in presence of Caco-2 cells. N-methyl-N-nitrosurea exposure resulted in a small ROS signal, and formation of nitrogen centered radicals (NCR), also stimulated by Caco-2 cells. N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine did not cause radical formation at genotoxic concentrations, but at increased exposure levels, both ROS and NCR formation was observed. By associating gene expression patterns with ROS formation, several cellular processes responding to nitrosamine exposure were identified, including apoptosis, cell cycle blockage, DNA repair and oxidative stress. These findings suggest that following NOC exposure in Caco-2 cells, ROS formation plays an important role in deregulation of gene expression patterns which may be relevant for the process of chemical carcinogenesis in the human colon, in addition to the role of DNA alkylation. Keywords: Nitrosamines, nitrosamides, N-nitroso compounds, free radicals, toxicogenomics, colon carcinogenesis The study investigated differential gene expression in Caco-2 cell line mRNA following 1, 6 or 24 hours of exposure to six different N-nitroso compounds. Two biological replicates per sample compound. One compound per array, hybridized against vehicle control. Dye-swap between biological replicates.

Project description:Background: During gut colonization, the enteric pathogen C. jejuni has to surmount the toxic effects of reactive oxygen species produced by its own metabolism, by the host immune system and by the intestinal microflora. Elucidation of C. jejuni oxidative stress defense mechanisms is critical for understanding Campylobacter pathophysiology. Results: The mechanisms of oxidative stress defenses in Campylobacter jejuni were characterized by transcriptional profiling, genes mutagenesis, and phenotypic analysis. The transcriptome changes, in response to H2O2, cumene hydroperoxide, or menadione exposure, were found to be oxidant specific and revealed the differential expression of genes belonging to a variety of biological pathways, from the classical oxidative stress defense systems, to the heat shock response, DNA repair and metabolism, fatty acid and capsule biosynthesis, and multidrug efflux pumps. To define the peroxide sensing regulator PerR, an isogenic mutant was constructed and its transcriptome profile compared to the wild-type strain. Sixty-six genes were found to belong to the PerR regulon. PerR appear to regulate gene expression both dependently and independently of the presence of iron and/or H2O2. The perR mutant was affected in its motility and attenuated in the chick colonization model. Mutagenic and phenotypic studies of the superoxide disumutase SodB, the alkyl-hydroxyperoxidase AhpC, and the catalase KatA, revealed their role in oxidative stress defenses and chick gut colonization. Conclusion: This study reveals the interplay between PerR, the iron metabolism and the oxidative stress defenses and highlights their role in the colonization and/or survival of C. jejuni in the chick cecum. Keywords: Transcriptional response to 3 oxidants (H2O2, menadione and cumene hydroperoxide) and characterization of the perR regulon (comparison of the transciptomes from the wild-type and perR mutant). To investigate the transcriptional responses of C. jejuni to oxidant exposure, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), cumene hydroperoxide (CHP), or menadione sodium bisulfite (MND) was added to the 50 ml broth at a final concentration of 1 mM. The same amount of water or DMSO was added to the bacterial culture that served as reference samples for the transcriptional profile study in response to H2O2, MND or CHP. Furthermore, to investigate the transcriptional response of C. jejuni to H2O2 exposure in the presence of excess iron, ferrous sulfate was added to the bacterial culture at a final concentration of 40 µM, 15 min prior to H2O2 exposure. Ten minutes after the addition of the oxidant, total RNA was extracted and processed for microarray hybridization. To identify the PerR regulon, the wild-type strain C. jejuni NCTC 11168 and the perR mutant were grown in 500 ml flasks containing 250 ml of MEMα medium. At mid-log phase, 50 ml of the cultures were transferred to 100 ml flasks and ferrous sulfate and/or H2O2 were added . Ten minutes following the addition of H2O2 the cells were collected and the total RNA extracted.
