NADPH oxidases in oxidant production by microglia: activating receptors, pharmacology and association with disease

Abstract: Microglia are the resident immune cells of the CNS and constitute a self-sustaining population of CNS-adapted tissue macrophages. As mononuclear phagocytic cells, they express high levels of superoxide-producing NADPH oxidases (NOX). The sole function of the members of the NOX family is to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) that are believed to be important in CNS host defence and in the redox signalling circuits that shape the different activation phenotypes of microglia. NOX are also important in patholo… Show more

“…In addition to RSV’s potent anti-inflammatory effects, it has also been suggested to inhibit nuclear factor kappa B through histone deacetylation by SIRT-1 (Bagul et al, 2015; Borra et al, 2005), a factor which has been linked to the development of depressive-like states (Haslund-Vinding et al, 2016; Patki et al, 2013b; Vilhardt et al, 2016). In the present study there were no differences in SIRT-1 protein levels between stress or treatment groups.…”

“…A large cohort of studies support the notion that release of H 2 O 2 from cell surface-resident NOX can diffuse back into the cytosol to effect physiological redox signalling, subsequent to cell surface receptor activation. This autocrine function of secreted ROS is discussed in detail in the accompanying review (Haslund-Vinding et al, 2017), while we here discuss the potential paracrine role of ROS and antioxidants. While the diffusion range of H 2 O 2 in the highly reducing cytosol is limited to a few micrometers (Mishina et al, 2011), the diffusion range is considerably extended in the extracellular space.…”

“…In combination with the accompanying review (Haslund-Vinding et al, 2017), we place the emphasis on the family of NADPH oxidases (NOX family) in oxidant production, and the GSH-thioredoxin antioxidant system required for the transient thiol modification of target proteins for signalling purposes. We refer the interested reader to a detailed review for discussion of other antioxidant systems in microglia (Dringen, 2005).…”

“…NOX2 is thought to be latent under normal conditions; upon microglial activation, NOX2 becomes activated through the formation of a multimeric protein complex leading to NOX2-derived superoxide formation. 5 This activation process is thought to play a key role in mediating proinflammatory, M1-polarized microglia in neuroinflammation, and increases in the levels of NOX2 and other markers of oxidative stress have been reported in post-mortem samples of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) brain and in transgenic mouse models of AD. 4,6 Similar results have been reported in the substantia nigra of PD brain samples and in the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) model of PD.…”
