The two inducible enzymes, manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) and heme-oxygenase-1 (HO-1) may participate in the cellular defense of brain endothelium against oxidative stress. The time-dependent expression of MnSOD and HO-1 mRNAs and proteins was investigated in vitro in rat cerebral endothelial cells (CEC) subjected to sublethal mild or moderate hydroxyl radical-induced oxidative stress. Mild oxidative stress induced increases in both MnSOD and HO-1 mRNA and protein expression. Moderate oxidative stress resulted in a significant reduction in HO-1 mRNA and protein expression, whereas MnSOD expression pattern was similar to that observed after mild oxidative stress. A profound protein loss of both MnSOD and HO-1 was detected 24 h after exposure of CEC to a moderate oxidative stress. The data indicate that cerebral endothelial cells respond by increasing the expression of antioxidant defense enzymes in a manner dependent on the oxidative stress intensity.
