Abstract

Aims: The susceptibility of CA1 over CA3 to damage from cerebral ischemia may be related to the differences in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production/removal between the two hippocampal subfields. We aimed to measure CA1/CA3 differences in net ROS production in real time in the first 30 min of reperfusion in pyramidal cells. We aimed to determine the underlying cause of the differential vulnerability of CA1 and CA3.

Results: Real-time determinations of mitochondrial HO and, independently, glutathione (GSH) redox status from roGFP-based probes in individual pyramidal cells in organotypic hippocampal cultures during oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD)-reperfusion (RP) demonstrate a significantly more oxidizing environment during RP in CA1 than CA3 mitochondria. Protein levels (immunohistochemistry and Western blots), roGFP2-based probe measurements during controlled mitochondrial production of ROS, and thioredoxin reductase (TrxR) inhibition by auranofin are consistent with a more effective mitochondrial thioredoxin (Trx) system in CA3. Inhibition of TrxR eliminates the differences in redox status and cell death between the regions. Overexpression of cytosolic Trx1 does not influence mitochondrial HO production.

Innovation: Real-time changes of mitochondrial HO and GSH in tissue cultures during early RP, and also during controlled production of superoxide and peroxide, reveal significant differences between CA1 and CA3. The mitochondrial Trx system is responsible for the observed differences during RP as well as for delayed cell death 18 h afterward.

Conclusion: Greater mitochondrial Trx efficacy in CA3 pyramidal cells results in less vulnerability to ischemia/reperfusion because of the less oxidizing environment in CA3 mitochondria during RP. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 27, 534-549.
