Reactive oxygen species have been shown to play important roles in v-Ha-Ras mitogenic signaling. We hypothesized that v-Ha-Ras overexpression would induce superoxide production, and therefore modify expression of the primary antioxidant enzyme system. We have demonstrated that immortal rat kidney epithelial cells stably transduced with constitutively active v-Ha-ras produced significantly larger amounts of superoxide radical than wild-type or vector-transfected control cells. The levels of the primary antioxidant enzymes copper- and zinc-containing superoxide dismutase, manganese-containing superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase were increased in the superoxide-overproducing cells. DNA-binding activities of the transcription factors activator protein-1, activator protein-2, and nuclear factor-kappaB were all enhanced in the superoxide-overproducing cells. These v-Ha-ras transduced cells also had a shortened cell doubling time and higher plating efficiency, and displayed greater constitutive levels of phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinases. These data demonstrate that v-Ha-Ras overexpression increases superoxide production and this apparently affects a wide variety of cell signaling and redox systems.
