Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol. 2007 Jul;293(1):H238-45. Epub 2007 Mar 2.

We have also demonstrated that the reduction of I (to) density induced by TNF-alpha was prevented by the selective inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitor 1400-W, the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide, the antioxidant tocopherol, and the superoxide dismutase mimetic manganese (III) tetrakis (4-benzoic acid) porphyrin.

In the presence of cycloheximide, all the enzymes returned to the levels of untreated controls while chloramphenicol did not have any effect on the test enzymes, thereby suggesting de novo protein synthesis of the test antioxidant enzymes in the cytosolic compartment of the cell as a result of exposure to the heavy metals.
The utility of antioxidant enzymes, viz glutathione-S-transferase (GST), glutathione reductase (GR), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDHAR) and dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), as biomarkers of heavy metal pollution in water was investigated using the Allium cepa (onion) system.

The cytoprotective effect of IFN-gamma pretreatment was abolished by the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide.
Among various antioxidant enzymes such as manganese or copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD or Cu/Zn-SOD), catalase, and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), only Mn-SOD was up-regulated in IFN-gamma-pretreated microglial cells.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in brain ischemic tolerance induced by ischemic preconditioning.
Our attempt to understand the mechanisms of increased SOD and CAT activities by application of protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide showed that this increase was caused by de novo synthesis of enzymes during first hours after ischemia.

The TNF-alpha response was inhibited by superoxide dismutase and catalase suggesting apoptosis is oxidative stress related.
In CMVEC from mice and newborn pigs, 15 ng/ml TNF-alpha alone, or with 10 microg/ml cycloheximide (CHX) caused apoptosis detected by nuclear translocation of p65 NF-kappaB, caspase-3 activation, DNA fragmentation, cell-cell contact destabilization, and cell detachment.

These rapid effects were not blocked by the GC receptor antagonist RU486 and/or the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide.

Suppression of O (2)(-) availability by a cell-permeable superoxide dismutase mimetic or inhibition of NAD (P) H oxidase activity via its specific inhibitors (apocynin, diphenyleneiodinium, phenylarsine oxide, and 4-(2-aminoethyl) bezenesulfonyl fluoride) or antisense p22-phox cDNA attenuated cell growth independent of changes in intracellular antioxidant glutathione levels.
Inhibition of nascent protein synthesis by a translation inhibitor, cycloheximide, significantly reduced p22-phox mRNA stability in proliferating but not in confluent CMEC.

Furthermore, EGCG-mediated HO-1 induction was abrogated in the presence of actinomycin D and cycloheximide, indicating that this upregulation of HO-1 occurred at the transcriptional level.
The inhibition of intracellular ROS production by N-acetylcysteine (NAC), glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and the mitochondrial complex I inhibitor, rotenone, results in a decrease in EGCG-dependent HO-1 expression.

Further, superoxide dismutases, which occupy the first step within the antioxidant enzyme cascade, also exhibit a rise in VSV-infected Vero cells, at different MOI.
LP levels exhibited a rise at different times post infection, according to the multiplicity of infection (MOI), while the presence of cycloheximide determined a reduction on LP.

Using inhibitors of mRNA (actinomycin D) and protein (cycloheximide) synthesis, the strain deficient in Yap1p, a master regulator coordinating yeast adaptive response to oxidative stress, we have found that these enzymes are up-regulated via synthesis of new molecules at transcription and translation levels.

Cell responses against both superoxide and peroxide stresses include enhanced expression of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase, however, the extent was different: treatment with PQ increased mainly SOD, whereas exogenous H2O2 led to enhanced catalase.
The activation of antioxidant enzyme defence was blocked by the translation inhibitor, cycloheximide, suggesting that there was de novo enzyme synthesis.

Rats were treated with cycloheximide (CHX) in order to promote protein synthesis inhibition after OzoneOP treatment.
Plasma transaminases, malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxyalkenals and morphological characteristics were measured as an index of hepatocellular damage; Cu/Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD), Mn-SOD, catalase, total hydroperoxides and glutathione levels as markers of endogenous antioxidant system.

This ts phenotype is suppressed by addition of cycloheximide or in some conditions of growth repression.
Even at the permissive temperature, it shows a female sterile phenotype and is deficient in production of exocellular superoxide dismutase SOD4 (EC 1.15.1.1).
