Role of intrinsic antioxidant enzymes in renal oxidant injury

Abstract: To investigate the functional role of renal intrinsic antioxidant enzymes (AOEs), the levels of AOE activities in isolated glomeruli and the changes in renal function to oxidant insults were assessed in normal control rats (NC, N = 23) and rats subjected to 30-minutes of complete renal ischemia for three days (day-3, N = 20) or six days (day-6, N = 23) prior to study. When compared to NC, the activities of total and manganese (cyanide-insensitive) superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, and catalase were… Show more

“…Oxidant injury mediated by tert-butyl hydroperoxide is augmented by glutathione depletion and lessened when cellular levels of glutathione are increased (3 1-33). In vivo studies in rat kidneys suggest that antioxidant enzyme activity is an important determinant of oxidant-induced renal dysfunction (36). In this study, we confirm the role of the glutathione redox cycle in preventing lytic injury and we demonstrate a role for catalase as well as the glutathione redox cycle in protecting endothelial cells and epithelial cells from oxidant injury when a different indicator (ATP depletion) of oxidant injury is determined.…”

“…Catalase activity, protein and/or mRNA levels have been found to be increased, [31][32][33] unchanged 34) or decreased [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42] during oxidative stress. A ROS-mediated, biphasic model of catalase regulation has, however, been proposed in which catalase is stimulated by c-Abl/Arg-mediated phosphorylation at lower ROS levels, 43) while in the event of uncontrollable ROS levels, catalase is degraded by ubiquitinmediated proteasomal proteolysis, which thereby induces cell death.…”
