چکیده انگلیسی
One of the major enzymatic cell defenses providing protection from oxidative injury is the TrxR-Trx system. It consists of NADPH and thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), which maintain thioredoxin (Trx) in a reduced state. Perturbing the TrxR-Trx system with the selective TrxR inhibitor auranofin (AuF; 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-1-thio-β-d-glucopyranosato-S-(triethylphosphine) gold) induces oxidative stress by keeping Trx in its oxidized state. We have prepared a family of tri- and tetra-oligopeptides derived from the canonical CxxC motif of the Trx active site and a modified CxC motif. These Trx-mimetic compounds are N- and C-terminal-blocked peptides that consist of two cysteine residues that flank the two-amino-acid CxxC motif (CB4 and CB6) or the single-amino-acid CxC motif (CB3). Catecholamine (CA) secretion in bovine chromaffin cells, which is a highly redox sensitive process, is abolished by AuF. The Trx-mimetic peptides effectively restore CA secretion, as monitored by amperometry in single cells. They also prevent the AuF-induced phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase. In PC12 cells, the alleviation of AuF-induced ERK1/2-MAPK phosphorylation by Trx-like peptides parallels their effect of restoring CA secretion. CB3, CB4, and CB6 act intracellularly and are significantly more potent than the traditional antioxidants NAC, GSH, DTT, AD4 (NAC-amide), and ascorbic acid. Taken together, the CxxC and CxC peptides represent a new family of potent and selective redox compounds that could serve as potential candidates for prevention and treatment of oxidative-stress-related disorders.
