Abstract:
The adipose tissue hormone leptin and homocysteine (Hcy)-thiolactone are linked to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis through their interactions with the anti-atherogenic enzyme paraoxonase 1 that has the ability to hydrolyze Hcy-thiolactone and minimizes protein N-homocysteinylation. Here we examined the relationships between hyperleptinemia, Hcy-thiolactonase, and protein N-homocysteinylation in rats. Hyperleptinemia was induced in adult rats by administration of leptin for 7 days (0.25 mg/kg twice daily s.c). We found that serum Hcy-thiolactonase was lower in hyperleptinemic than in control animals (−41.0%, P<0.001). Leptin administration increased the level of N-linked Hcy in plasma proteins (+92.9%, P<0.01), but had no effect on plasma total Hcy. These effects were not reproduced by pair-feeding. We also found that the synthetic liver X receptor (LXR) agonist, T0901317 (1 mg/kg per day) normalized Hcy-thiolactonase and protein N-homocysteinylation levels in leptin-treated rats. However, leptin-induced increase in plasma isoprostane levels (a marker of oxidative stress) was not normalized by T0901317. The NADPH oxidase inhibitor apocynin prevented leptin-induced increase in isoprostane levels but did not normalize Hcy-thiolactonase and protein N-homocysteinylation levels. These results suggest that the decreased capacity to metabolize Hcy-thiolactone and concomitant increase in protein N-homocysteinylation contribute to pro-atherogenic effect of chronic hyperleptinemia, independently of oxidative stress. LXR agonists normalize Hcy-thiolactonase levels and decrease protein N-homocysteinylation, especially under conditions associated with excess leptin such as metabolic syndrome.

Abstract:
Objective: Deficiency in vitamin B12/folate (methyl donor deficiency [MDD]) produces cardiovascular outcomes during aging and fetal programming effects in newborns of MDD mothers. Whether fetal programming provokes long-term effects on aorta remains largely unknown. Approach and Results: We investigated the impact of fetal programming on ascending aorta of aged rats born from mothers subjected to MDD during gestation/lactation. We performed morphological and molecular examinations of ascending aortas in 21 days- and 400 days-aged rats with initial MDD fetal programming (iMDD) compared with control matched rats. iMDD induces remodeling of the ascending aorta in aged rats, with collagen deposition ( P =0.0008), decreased thickness of elastin ( P <0.0001), and 8.7-fold increase of elastin breaks ( P =0.0002). Proteomic analyses, Western blotting, and immunohistochemical examination revealed decreased expression of α-smooth muscle actin, vinculin, SM22α (smooth muscle 22α), and N-cadherin and increased expression of TGF (transforming growth factor) β1. Elastin breaks were correlated to increased neutrophil elastase ( P =0.0002), cathepsin-K ( P =0.0002), cathepsin-S ( P <0.0001), MMP (matrix metalloproteinase) 9, and MMP2 ( P <0.0001 and P =0.02). Proximity Duolink ligation assay showed homocysteinylation of actin-associated and extracellular matrix proteins, including SM22α ( P =0.01), N-cadherin ( P =0.0008), and vinculin ( P =0.001), which was associated with elastin breaks ( P =0.002) and increased expression of MARS (methionyl-tRNA synthetase; involved in irreversible protein homocysteinylation). Furthermore, we observed an inverse relationship between elastin breaks and blood pressure (systolic, P =0.004 and diastolic, P =0.0007). Conclusions: MDD fetal programming produced altered integrity and remodeling of ascending aorta during aging and irreversible MARS-associated homocysteinylation of key proteins of extracellular matrix and elastin homeostasis. This contributes to understanding why homocysteine-lowering vitamin B supplementation fails to relieve vascular complications in adulthood.

Abstract:
Abstract Background: Hyperhomocysteinemia is an important risk factor for vascular disease and atherosclerosis, but the mechanisms by which homocysteine exerts its deleterious effects are not known. Because oxidation and/or homocysteinylation may increase atherogenicity of LDL, we investigated S-homocysteinylation of LDL as a possible contributor to atherosclerosis pathogenesis. Methods: We used capillary electrophoresis to measure LDL-bound thiols [homocysteine, cysteine (Cys), cysteinylglycine, glutathione, and glutamylcysteine] in 104 healthy study participants We also assessed total plasma thiol concentrations and lipid profiles. Results: Our data suggest that apoprotein B (apoB)-cysteinylglycine (CysGly), apoB-Hcy, and apoB-Cys concentrations are markedly higher in men than in women. The percentage of CysGly and glutathione on apoB was higher than that of the same thiols in plasma, whereas the other thiols were markedly less prevalent in lipoprotein than in plasma. Pearson correlation showed that among all thiols, only total plasma Hcy is related to apoB-Hcy concentrations. Multiple correlation analysis confirmed that total Hcy was the most important determinant of apoB-Hcy. Age and LDL cholesterol also showed positive associations, but Cys and, mainly, CysGly were negatively associated with apoB-Hcy concentrations. Conclusions: apoB-Hcy derivative formation is mainly dependent on total homocysteine concentration. Increased cholesterol concentrations are related to increased apoB-Hcy. CysGly seems to compete with Hcy for binding to LDL apoprotein, suggesting that CysGly may protect against atherosclerosis by decreasing the concentrations of Hcy transferred by LDL from plasma to endothelial and subendothelial spaces.

Abstract:
The direct impact of de novo synthesis of homocysteine (Hcy) and its reactive metabolites, Hcy-S-S-Hcy and Hcy thiolactone (HCTL), on vascular function has not been fully elucidated. We hypothesized that Hcy synthesized within endothelial cells affects activity of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) by direct homocysteinylation of its amino- and/or sulfhydryl moieties. This covalent modification enhances ACE reactivity toward angiotensin II (ANG II)-NADPH oxidase-superoxide-dependent endothelial dysfunction. Mesenteric and coronary arteries isolated from normal rats were incubated for 3 days with or without exogenous methionine (Met, 0.1–0.3 mM), a precursor to Hcy. Incubation of arteries in Met-free media resulted in time-dependent decreases in vascular Hcy formation. By contrast, vessels incubated with Met produced Hcy in a dose-dependent manner. There was a notably greater de novo synthesis of Hcy from endothelial than from smooth muscle cells. Enhanced levels of Hcy production significantly impaired shear stress-induced dilation and release of nitric oxide, events that are associated with elevated production of vascular superoxide. Each of these processes was attenuated by ANG II type I receptor blocker or ACE and NADPH oxidase inhibitors. In addition, in vitro exposure of purified ACE to Hcy-S-S-Hcy/HCTL resulted in formation of homocysteinylated ACE and an enhanced ACE activity. The enhanced ACE activity was confirmed in isolated coronary and mesenteric arteries that had been exposed directly to Hcy-S-S-Hcy/HCTL or after Met incubation. In conclusion, vasculature-derived Hcy initiates endothelial dysfunction that, in part, may be mediated by ANG II-dependent activation of NADPH oxidase in association with homocysteinylation of ACE.

Abstract:
Abstract A high homocysteine (Hcy) level is a risk factor for atherosclerosis. Hcy can be added to proteins through a process known as N-homocysteinylation. This is thought to be a potential cause of atherosclerosis induction. We previously reported that N-homocysteinylated apolipoprotein A-I (N-Hcy-apoA-I) was identified in normal human plasma. In this study, the effect of N-homocysteinylation on the functions of apoA-I was examined. A kinetic study using dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) liposomes indicated that N-Hcy-apoA-I showed increased lipid-binding activity compared to wild-type apoA-I. Two reconstituted high-density lipoprotein (rHDL) particles of different sizes (approximately 8.2 nm and 7.6 nm in diameter) were produced by mixing apoA-I and 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl phosphatidylcholine (POPC). However, an increased ratio of large to small particles was found in rHDL prepared with N-Hcy-apoA-I. The normal apoA-I antioxidant ability, estimated by the suppression of conjugated diene formation in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) induced by copper sulfate oxidation, was considerably impaired when using N-Hcy-apoA-I. Although N-Hcy-apoA-I functioned as an oxidant, no significant difference was observed in the cholesterol efflux capacity from THP-1 macrophages between wild-type apoA-I and N-Hcy-apoA-I. These results suggest that N-Hcy-apoA-I might be proatherogenic due to its oxidative behavior but not an attenuation of cholesterol efflux capacity.

Abstract:
Paraoxonase 1 (PON1) is the high density lipoprotein-associated esterase which inhibits the development of atherosclerosis by metabolizing lipid peroxidation products as well as hydrolyzing proatherogenic metabolite of homocysteine (Hcy), Hcy thiolactone, which otherwise reacts with lysine groups of proteins, thus forming N-Hcy-protein in a process referred to as protein N-homocysteinylation. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is the chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease associated with increased risk of cardiovascular complications, but the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood. We examined PON1 status and N-homocysteinylation of serum proteins in patients with RA. Blood was collected from 74 RA patients and 70 control subjects. PON1 activity was measured toward synthetic (paraoxon, phenyl acetate) and natural (Hcy thiolactone) substrates. PON1 protein concentration was measured by ELISA. Total Hcy as well as N-Hcy-protein were measured in serum as well. PON1 activity toward Hcy thiolactone was lower in RA patients than in control subjects which was accompanied by increased concentration of N-Hcy-protein despite normal total Hcy concentration. PON1 protein concentration was unchanged in the RA group, but the specific enzyme activity was reduced. When RA patients were categorized according to the DAS28-ESR score, PON1 concentration and enzymatic activity were lower whereas N-Hcy-protein was higher in those with high disease activity. PON1 activity and Hcy thiolactone were correlated with DAS28-ESR score and myeloperoxidase concentration. In conclusion, RA is associated with deficiency of PON1 activity and increased protein N-homocyseinylation which may contribute to accelerated development of cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract:
Hyperhomocysteinemia plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of many diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). The nervous system is particularly sensitive to high homocysteine (Hcy) level mainly due to its prooxidative and cytotoxic effects. Cladribine, a drug recently registered for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS), possesses additionally neuroprotective effects which are independent of its peripheral immunosuppressant action. Accumulating evidence suggests that oxidative stress and homocysteine thiolactone-mediated protein homocysteinylation play a causal role in MS. Both of these processes may be attenuated by paraoxonase 1 (PON1). Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to examine whether the beneficial effects of the drug in MS patients with a secondary progressive (SP) clinical course, treated with cladribine subcutaneously (s.c.), may be related to its ability to modify serum PON1 activity, Hcy concentration, and protein homocysteinylation, as well as to correct total antioxidant status. A total of 118 subjects were enrolled into the study: (1) patients with a SP type of MS, SP-MS (n=40); (2) patients with a relapsing-remitting (RR) type of MS, RR-MS (n=30); and (3) healthy people (n=48). Patients with SP-MS were treated with cladribine. The drug was given in SP-SM patients s.c. six times every 6 weeks up to a total mean cumulative dose of 1.8 mg/kg. PON1 activity was assessed spectrophotometrically. The level of Hcy, homocysteine thiolactone (HTL) attached to plasma proteins (N-Hcy-protein), and antibodies against homocysteinylated proteins was assessed with an enzyme immunoassay. The total antioxidant activity of the serum was assessed with the ferric-reducing activity of plasma (FRAP) method. Basically, there was no difference in PON1 activity between untreated SP-MS, RR-MS, and control subjects. Serum Hcy was significantly higher in RR-MS patients (p<0.001) and in SP-MS patients (p<0.01) compared to the control group. The N-Hcy protein level was higher in RR-MS patients (p<0.05) in comparison to the control group. Moreover, the elevated level of antibodies against homocysteinylated proteins was observed in the serum of patients with SP-MS. The total antioxidant capacity of serum was lower in MS patients vs. the control group (p<0.001). After cladribine treatment, the activity of PON1 did not change in SP-MS patients, whereas cladribine treatment decreased the level of total Hcy (p<0.05). Treatment with cladribine increased the total serum antioxidant activity in SP-MS patients (p<0.01). The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score did not change in SP-MS patients. Cladribine treatment in the SP-MS group attenuates hyperhomocysteinemia-induced protein homocysteinylation (n.s.). It also stabilises the neurological condition of SP-MS patients. The stabilisation of a neurological condition observed in SP-MS patients after cladribine treatment may be partially related to its ability to reduce elevated Hcy level and to improve serum antioxidant potential.

Abstract:
Genetic or nutritional deficiencies in homocysteine (Hcy) metabolism increase Hcy-thiolactone, which causes protein damage by forming isopetide bonds with lysine residues, generating N-Hcy-protein. In the present work, we studied the prevalence and genetic determinants of keratin damage caused by homocysteinylation. We found that in mammals and birds, 35 to 98% of Hcy was bound to hair keratin via amide or isopeptide bond (Hcy-keratin), while 2 to 65% was S-Hcy-keratin. A major fraction of hair Hcy-keratin (56% to 93%), significantly higher in birds than in mammals, was sodium dodecyl sulfate-insoluble. Genetic hyperhomocysteinemia significantly increased N-Hcy-keratin levels in the mouse pelage. N-Hcy-keratin was elevated 3.5-, 6.3-, and 11.7-fold in hair from Mthfr−/−, Cse−/−, or Cbs−/− mice, respectively. The accumulation of N-Hcy in hair keratin led to a progressive reduction of N-Hcy-keratin solubility in sodium dodecyl sulfate, from 0.39 ± 0.04 in wild-type mice to 0.19 ± 0.03, 0.14 ± 0.01, and 0.07 ± 0.03 in Mthfr−/−, Cse−/−, or Cbs−/−animals, respectively. N-Hcy-keratin accelerated aggregation of unmodified keratin in Cbs−/− mouse hair. Keratin methionine, copper, and iron levels in mouse hair were not affected by hyperhomocysteinemia. These findings provide evidence that pelage keratin is N-homocysteinylated in vivo in mammals and birds, and that this process causes keratin damage, manifested by a reduced solubility.
