dc.description.abstract | The ability of transferrin to potentiate oxygen free radical-mediated endothelial cell injury was assessed. 51Cr-labeled endothelial cells derived from rat pulmonary arteries (RPAECs) were incubated with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the presence and absence of holosaturated human transferrin, and the effect of transferrin on H2O2-mediated endothelial cell toxicity was determined. Addition of holosaturated transferrin potentiated H2O2-mediated RPAEC cytotoxicity at concentrations of H2O2 greater than 10 [mu], suggesting that transferrin may provide a source of iron for free radical-mediated endothelial cell injury. Free radical-mediated injury is dependent on non-protein-bound iron. The ability of RPAECs to facilitate the release of iron from transferrin was assessed. We determined that RPAECs facilitate the release of transferrin-derived iron by reduction of transferrinbound ferric iron (Fe3+) to ferrous iron (Fe2+). The reduction and release of transferrin-derived Fe2+ were inhibited by apotransferrin and chloroquine, indicating a dependence on receptor-specific binding of transferrin to the RPAEC cell surface, with subsequent endocytosis, acidification, and reduction of transferrin-bound Fe3+ to Fe2+. The release of transferrin-derived Fe2+ was potentiated by diethyldithiocarbamate, an inhibitor of intracellular superoxide dismutase (SOD). In contrast, exogenous SOD did not alter iron release, suggesting that intracellular superoxide anion (O2-) may play an important role in mediating the reduction and release of transferrin-derived iron. Results of this study suggest that transferrin may provide a source of iron for oxygen free radical-mediated endothelial cell injury and identify a novel mechanism by which endothelial cells may mediate the reduction and release of transferrin-derived iron. | en_US |
