Investigation of the effect of biologically active threo-Ds-isocitric acid on oxidative stress in Paramecium caudatum

Abstract: The effect of biologically active form (threo-Ds-) of isocitric acid (ICA) on oxidative stress was studied using the infusorian Paramecium caudatum stressed by hydrogen peroxide and salts of some heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Zn, and Cd). ICA at concentrations between 0.5 and 10 mM favorably influenced the infusorian cells with oxidative stress induced by the toxicants studied. The maximal antioxidant effect of ICA was observed at its concentration 10 mM irrespective of the toxicant used (either HO or heavy metal ions… Show more

“…The interest in isocitric acid (ICA) is associated with its potential efficiency in the treatment of Parkinson's disease, Fe-deficiency anemia, and metabolic myopathies associated with a shortage of succinate dehydrogenase and aconitate hydratase, as well as the mutation of the gene of NADP-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) as one possible reason for the emergence of neoplasms [1][2][3][4][5][6]. In experiments with oxidative stress induced by the action of hydrogen peroxide and ecotoxic heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd) on the Paramecium caudatum infusoria cells, the monopotassium salt of ICA was found to be a more efficient antioxidant than ascorbic acid [7]. ICA monopotassium salt also mitigates the neurotoxic effect of lead and molybdenum salts, as is evident from its beneficial effect on the learning and memory inhibition in rats intoxicated with these heavy metal salts [8].…”

“…Utilization of respiratory chains for aerobic metabolism comes along with the generation of ROS [ 6 , 9 ]. To eliminate these toxic byproducts, aerobic organisms developed antioxidant defense mechanisms including enzymatic and non-enzymatic protection systems [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ]. The abundant LMW thiol MSH functions to maintain the reduced state of the cytoplasm and represents the main non-enzymatic antioxidant in high-GC Gram-positive bacteria, such as the industrial platform organism C. glutamicum [ 19 , 27 , 48 ].…”

“…An excess of ROS leads to oxidative stress, which subsequently damages essential cell components, such as lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids [ 11 ]. To avoid irreversible damages, aerobic living organisms possess a wide range of ROS-scavengers including enzymatic and non-enzymatic detoxification systems [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ].…”
