The first group (control) was treated with vehicle; the second group was orally administered with melatonin (20 mg/kg b.w./day); the third group was injected with sodium dichromate dihydrate (5 mg/kg bw, s.c. every alternate day); and the fourth group was administered with melatonin, 30 min before Cr administration. The treatment of rats with Cr (VI) was found to affect the metabolic pathways by altering the activities of enzymes possibly through uncompetitively binding with them.

ICR mice were randomly divided into sedentary, exercise, exercise with glutathione, and exercise with vitamin C groups. In the exercise groups, mice were subjected to treadmill running at 30 m/min for 30 min. Immediately after exercise, glutathione (2% w/v, 5uL/g body weight) or vitamin C (10% w/v, 5uL/g body weight) were administered. Gastrocnemius muscle and plasma samples were collected at 3 h post-exercise. We found that plasma creatine kinase levels were only elevated in the exercise group. Malondialdehyde levels in skeletal muscle were elevated after exercise, but this elevation was suppressed by glutathione administration. PGC-1α expression was increased in both the exercise and glutathione groups compared with the sedentary group; however, the expressions of its downstream proteins were only increased in the glutathione group. Reduced glutathione form was notably increased in the mitochondria, whereas oxidized glutathione was significantly increased in the cytosol of the glutathione administration group compared with the exercise group. Thioredoxin reductase activity was also higher in the glutathione group than in the sedentary and exercise groups.

During ascent to high altitude, reactive oxygen species (ROS) is enhanced and antioxidant system declined due to low oxygen availability. A number of evidences suggested the role of high altitude hypoxia in various maladies due to perturbed redox homeostasis. High altitude associated maladies include High Altitude Pulmonary Edema (HAPE), High Altitude Cerebral Edema (HACE), Acute mountain sickness (AMS), chronic mountain sickness (CMS), pulmonary hypertension, venous thrombosis, sleep disorders, muscle atrophy etc. Many supplementations such as vitamin C, vitamin E, resveratrol, β-carotene, quercetin, acetyl-l-carnitine, <em>Ginkgo biloba</em>, N-acetyl cysteine, selenium, <em>Ganoderma lucidum</em>, l-carnosine, ursolic acid have been extensively researched for counteracting the high altitude associated oxidative stress. However, most of the supplementations are having limited beneficial effects. However, miRNA can become an answer for high altitude associated pathophysiological conditions as miRNAs regulate energy metabolism, metabolic pathways, oxidative stress, inflammation etc. On that, miRNAs are easily assessable, highly specific and sensitive small molecules that can also exploited as a biomarker. To consider the seriousness of the problem, the present study screened out the miRNAs that are directly involved in maintaining NADPH oxidases (NOX), nitric oxide synthases (NOS), thioredoxin induced protein (TXNIP) and antioxidants enzymes, comprising superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione peroxidise (GPX), peroxiredoxins (PRDX), thioredoxins (TXN), thioredoxin reductase (TXNRD). After analysis with the screened miRNAs, the extraction of miRNA (12 miRNAs) was done that have role in regulating free radical producing enzymes such as NOS, NOX and TXNIP. It is hypothesized that regulating miRNAs could become a probable answer for high altitude associated maladies.

Under stressful circumstances, the circulatory catecholamine undergoes auto-oxidation, resulting in the formation of free radicals. Chronic stress results in the depletion of micronutrient stores in the body. Pyridoxine, often known as vitamin B₆, is an essential water-soluble vitamin that acts as a coenzyme in many metabolic processes. Therefore, our current investigation has prioritized the regulation of pyridoxine metabolism during the period of chronic stress and the precise role of melatonin, as a natural antioxidant, in preventing the alterations generated by adrenaline in cardiac and hepatic tissues. Adrenaline augmented the oxidative stress indices, leading to an imbalance in the antioxidative state resulting in changes in the levels of certain organ-specific serum markers, modifications in the levels of PL (pyridoxal), PLP (pyridoxal-5-phosphate), and the enzymes responsible for their metabolism and breakdown. The foregoing results were corroborated by the histochemical and histological examinations. Melatonin efficiently counteracted all these harmful changes. Besides, the current study demonstrates that both PLP and melatonin show efficacy in scavenging free radicals, including superoxide anion free radicals and hydroxyl radicals, in the chemical system. However, the in vitro studies demonstrated that when administered together, melatonin and PLP more effectively mitigate free radical generation than the individual molecule. These findings were further confirmed by the ITC binding study. These results suggest that a combination of melatonin and PLP could be a better therapeutic approach for the amelioration of stress induced oxidative damages in cardiac and hepatic tissues with an improved pyridoxine metabolism.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72106,"journal":{"name":"Advances in redox research : an official journal of the Society for Redox Biology and Medicine and the Society for Free Radical Research-Europe","volume":"11 ","pages":"Article 100101"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2667137924000080/pdfft?md5=5983a6daa91d4a63a5566e8650047ec3&pid=1-s2.0-S2667137924000080-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140605872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
