Hydrogen peroxide differentially affects activity in the pre-Bötzinger complex and hippocampus.

چکیده
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) modulate neuronal excitability. In the present study we examined the effects of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), a well established ROS, on neuronal activity from two neonatal mouse brain regions, i.e., the pre-Bötzinger complex (preBötC) within the ventral respiratory column (VRC) and the CA1 area of the hippocampus. In the preBötC, 2.2 mM H(2)O(2) evoked a transient depression followed by augmentation of neuronal activity. The iron chelator deferoxamine (500 μM) did not prevent H(2)O(2)-mediated neuronal augmentation but prevented the initial depression. Combined application of Fe(2+) and H(2)O(2) only caused depression of the preBötC rhythm. In contrast, H(2)O(2) suppressed neuronal activity in the CA1 region, and this effect was accentuated by coapplication of Fe(2+) and H(2)O(2), suggesting that hydroxyl radical generated by Fenton reaction mediates the effects of H(2)O(2) on CA1 neuronal activity. Malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were monitored as an index of lipid peroxidation in H(2)O(2)-treated preBötC and CA1 areas. MDA levels were unaltered in H(2)O(2)-treated preBötC, whereas MDA levels were markedly elevated in the CA1 region. These findings suggest that 1) exogenous administration of H(2)O(2) exerts differential effects on neuronal activities of preBötC versus CA1 neuronal populations and 2) H(2)O(2) is a potent modulator of respiratory rhythmogenesis from the preBötC without affecting global oxidative status.

متن کاملHeterotropic Effect of β-lactam Antibiotics on Antioxidant Property of Haptoglobin) 2-2(-Hemoglobin Complex
Haptoglobin (Hp) is a mammalian serum glycoprotein showing a genetic polymorphism with three types, 1-1, 2-2 and 1-2. Hp appears to conserve the recycling of heme-iron by forming an essentially irreversible but non-covalent complex with hemoglobin which is released into the plasma by erythrocyte lysis. As an important consequence, Haptoglobin-Hemoglobin complex (Hp-Hb) shows considerable antiox...
