Asai et al., 2000

5 Which factors contribute to endothelial cell aging? disturbed mitochondrial! of Reduction NO/ROS! balance damage telomerase Passage 9-10 Passage /telomeres Passage 11-13! Contribute to the development of atherosclerosis

6 -gglaktosidase positive cells (%) -Galaktosidase positive cells (%) NO, antioxidants and statins delay replicative senescence control SNAP (NO-donor) control NAC Statin passage Passage (Vasa et al., 2000) (Haendeler et al., 2004)

7 NO, statins and antioxidants Delay endothelial cell aging Prevent age related increase in apoptosis sensitivity Mechanisms?

8 Cellular antioxidants TRX-TRXR system GSH-GSSG system SOD, catalase etc. Cellular oxidants NADPH oxidases Respiratory chain enzymes etc. ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS ROS

9 How can NO and/or statins influence the redox balance? transcriptional/protein expression protein modification S-nitros(yl)ation protein SH+ NO protein SNO

10 Thioredoxin is a cytosolic intracellular disulfide reductase and important for regulating the cellular redox - status. Thioredoxin knockout is embryonal lethal. (Matsui et al., 1996 Dev. Biol.) Trx-1 TRX Protein (SH) 2 Reduction and oxidation of proteins and reduction of ROS (Holmgren, 1989) Protein S SH SH TRX -S S--Sprotein X Binding to active cysteines thereby modulation of protein function (Saitoh et al., 1998) TRX Nucleus ARE Translocation into the nucleus: binding and regulation of transcription factors (Schroeder et. al. 2007) 69 SH potential S-nitrosylation site

11 HS HS ON-S Posttranslational modification of Trx-1 TRX active cysteines C C C In mice: increased cardioprotection and anti-apoptotic capacity 73 C S-SG Trx In cells and plants: reduction of oxidoreductase activity In cells: increased oxidoreductase activity and anti-apoptotic capacity (Modified from Haendeler, 2006)

12 Trx activity ( OD340nm/ T*mg protein) Effect of statins on Trx-1 activity Enzymeactivity 100% Trx Trxwt TRXwt TRX C69S SH SH S-NO O -. O O % Trx TrxC69S 0.01 SH SH O -. 2 O -. 2 O -. O O -. 2 OH AT (Haendeler et al., 2004)

13 Conclusion: Trx-1 SH SH S- NO S-nitros(yl)ation of thioredoxin leads to an increase in thioredoxin activity, to a reduction of intracellular ROS and to a reduction of endothelial cell apoptosis Is there a role for Trx-1 in endothelial cell aging?
