Abstract

There is evidence accumulating that brain microvasculature is involved critically in oxidative stress‐mediated brain damage. Cultured cerebral microvascular endothelial cells were used to demonstrate the cytotoxic and genotoxic effects elicited by hypoxia/reoxygenation and DMNQ treatment in vitro. In addition, the effect of glucose deprivation during oxidative insult was assessed. The parameters determined were: 1) chromosomal aberrations; 2) induction of micronuclei; and 3) apoptosis. Our results indicate that both the exposure of the cerebral endothelial cells to 24 hr of hypoxia followed by 4 hr of reoxygenation, and treatment with the redox cycling quinone DMNQ, increased markedly the occurrence of chromosomal aberrations and micronuclei. It was found that expression of p53 was induced by oxidative stress, particularly when glucose had been omitted from the culture medium. Aglycemic culture conditions in general exacerbated the cytotoxic effects of oxidative insults, as evidenced by the increase in apoptotic cells and the decrease in the mitotic index. Interestingly, neither an elevation of cell lysis nor an increase in necrosis has been observed during our experiments. In summary, our data indicate that oxidative stress exerts considerable genotoxic and cytotoxic effects on cerebral endothelial cells, which might contribute to the progression of tissue damage in the central nervous system. © 2003 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
