Disease relevance of Mpo

  • In the current studies we used genetically altered mice deficient in MPO to investigate the role of the enzyme in host defense against the Gram-negative bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae, an important human pathogen [1].
  • When challenged i.p., mice deficient in either MPO or NE were markedly more susceptible to bacterial infection and death [1].
  • MATERIALS AND METHODS: Body weight, histological scores, and myeloperoxidase activity were evaluated in trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid colitis [2].
  • The effects of NK1-R genetic deletion/antagonism on pancreatic plasma extravasation, amylase, myeloperoxidase (MPO), and histology in cerulein-induced pancreatitis were characterized [3].
  • H(2)S alone could also cause lung inflammation, as evidenced by a significant increase in lung myeloperoxidase activity and histological evidence of lung injury [4].
 

High impact information on Mpo

  • This pathology was independent of bacterial overgrowth and was characterized by increased myeloperoxidase activity, moderate degeneration of myenteric neurons, and intraluminal hemorrhage [5].
  • The capacity of drugs to serve as myeloperoxidase substrates in vitro was associated with the ability to induce lupus in vivo [6].
  • Using single cell RT-PCR we show that erythroid (beta-globin) and myeloid (myeloperoxidase) gene expression programs can be initiated by the same cell prior to exclusive commitment to the erythroid or granulocytic lineages [7].
  • Myeloperoxidase (MPO), which accumulates in the infarct zone, is released from neutrophils and monocytes leading to the formation of reactive chlorinating species capable of oxidizing proteins and altering biological function [8].
  • MPO(-/-) demonstrated decreased leukocyte infiltration, significant reduction in LV dilation, and marked preservation of LV function [8].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Mpo

  • At the end of the experiment, following decapitation, lung, liver and kidney tissue samples were taken for histological examination or determination of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and collagen contents [9].
  • Antibiotic treatment perturbed gut flora, increased MPO and SP immunoreactivity in the colon, and produced visceral hypersensitivity [10].
  • Capsazepine treatment significantly reduced the level of NK1R endocytosis, and this was associated with similar reductions in pancreatic MPO activity and histological severity of pancreatitis [11].
  • Mice treated with CP-96345, either prophylactically, or therapeutically, were protected against acute pancreatitis and associated lung injury as evident by attenuation in plasma amylase, pancreatic and pulmonary myeloperoxidase activities, and histological evidence of pancreatic and pulmonary injuries [12].
  • After leukocyte degranulation, MPO localized in and around vascular endothelial cells in a rodent model of acute endotoxemia and impaired endothelium-dependent relaxant responses, to which MPO-deficient mice were resistant [13].

Regulatory relationships of Mpo

  • To test the pathogenic potential of antibodies alone, purified anti-MPO IgG or control IgG was injected intravenously into Rag2(-/-) mice and wild-type mice [29].
  • The RANTES antagonist Met-RANTES significantly (P < 0.01) reduced the toxin A-induced increases in ileal fluid accumulation and myeloperoxidase activity in wild-type mice [30].
  • However, expression of the Evi-1 gene blocked the ability of the cells to express myeloperoxidase and to terminally differentiate to granulocytes in response to G-CSF [31].
  • Consistent with that interpretation, the addition of purified MPO enzyme to cultured macrophages inhibited iNOS induction by IL [32].
  • Neutrophil infiltration increased gradually 24 hours after ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 were upregulated with significant elevation of myeloperoxidase activity over baseline at 72 hours (7.2 +/- 1.2 vs. 18.1 +/- 2.2 activity units/gram tissue; P <0.05) [33].
 

Other interactions of Mpo

  • The murine myeloperoxidase promoter contains several functional elements, one of which binds a cell type-restricted transcription factor, myeloid nuclear factor 1 (MyNF1) [15].
  • Diminished pulmonary chemokine mRNA production was associated with reduced neutrophil margination and pulmonary myeloperoxidase activity [34].
  • 4. Of interest, the systemic administration of an anti-TNF-alpha antibody produced a significant inhibition of paw oedema, mechanical allodynia and MPO activity [35].
  • KC ( approximately 400 pg x mg protein(-1), n=12) and MIP-2 (approximately 800 pg x mg protein(-1), n=12) proteins peaked at day 7, together with myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity [36].
  • An antiserum to MCP-1 reduced NAG activity at day 21 but increased MPO activity values (n=8, P<0.05) [36].
