New Findings r What is the topic of this review? This article describes the contribution of oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory cytokines to the enhanced carotid body chemosensory responsiveness to the hypoxia and systemic hypertension induced by chronic intermittent hypoxia. r What advances does it highlight? Chronic intermittent hypoxia enhances the carotid body chemosensory discharge during normoxia and hypoxia, leading to sympathetic overactivity and hypertension. New evidence suggests that chronic intermittent hypoxia increases pro-inflammatory cytokines. Here, we discuss the role of inflammation in the alterations of the carotid chemoreceptor function as well as the cardiorespiratory alterations following chronic intermittent hypoxia.. Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH), the main characteristic of obstructive sleep apnoea, enhances carotid body (CB) chemosensory discharges during normoxia and hypoxia and elicits hypertension. These alterations are attributed to oxidative stress, because antioxidants prevent the enhanced CB chemosensory discharges and the hypertension. In this report, we discuss new evidence supporting the suggestion that oxidative stress-induced upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines (i.e. tumour necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β) in the CB is involved in the chemosensory potentiation and the hypertension following CIH. Anti-inflammatory treatment with ibuprofen prevents the increased tumour necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β levels in the CB and the hypertension, but does not reduce the enhanced chemosensory hypoxic response and the local oxidative stress in the CB. In contrast, antioxidant treatment with ascorbic acid prevents the increase in cytokine concentrations and CB oxidative stress, the chemosensory potentiation and the hypertension. Thus, the enhanced CB chemosensory responses to hypoxia depend critically on the oxidative stress, but not on the increased tumour necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β in the CB. We discuss a possible role for pro-inflammatory cytokines in development of the hypertension produced by CIH, acting on cardiorespiratory centres located in the CNS.

In the last decade, a growing body of new evidence indicates that the carotid body (CB) is involved in several. human diseases, such as obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), congestive heart failure, hypertension and metabolic syndrome (Kumar & Prabhakar, 2012; Paton et al. 2013).

The resulting airflow interruption causes hypoxia and hypercapnia, negative intrathoraxic pressure, sleep fragmentation and arousal. Among these disturbances, the chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) is considered the main factor for the development of systemic diurnal hypertension (Gozal & Kheirandish-Gozal, 2008; Somers et al. 2008). Oxidative stress, inflammation and sympathetic overactivity have been proposed as potential mechanisms involved in OSA-induced hypertension (Somers et al. 2008; Garvey at al. 2009; Dempsey et al. 2010). However, conclusions from studies performed in OSA patients are masked by concomitant comorbidities (Somers et al. 2008). Thus, rodent models exposed to CIH have been developed to mimic the cardiovascular alterations induced by OSA (Fletcher et al. 1992; Peng et al. 2003; Iturriaga et al. 2009). Similar to what is observed in OSA patients (Narkiewicz et al. 1999; Somers et al. 2008), animals exposed to CIH display potentiated sympathetic responses to hypoxia and develop systemic hypertension (Fletcher et al. 1992; Peng et al. 2003; Rey et al. 2004). In addition, CIH-treated animals show enhanced hypoxic ventilatory responses to hypoxia (Rey et al. 2004; Iturriaga et al. 2009; Del Rio et al. 2010). Although Fletcher et al. (1992) found that CB denervation prevented the hypertension in rats exposed to CIH, the idea that the CB may contribute to the progression of the hypertension did not receive much attention. However, carotid sinus nerve recordings performed in animal OSA models have shown that CIH selectively enhances CB chemosensory discharges in normoxia and hypoxia (Peng et al. 2003; Rey et al. 2004; Iturriaga et al. 2009). In addition, Peng et al. (2003) found that CIH produced long-term facilitation of baseline CB discharges following repetitive acute intermittent hypoxia.. Contribution of oxidative stress to the CIH-induced potentiation of the CB chemosensory discharge. Reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species have been proposed as mediators of cardiovascular and cognitive alterations in OSA patients (Somers et al. 2008; Garvey at al. 2009; Dempsey et al. 2010) and animal models of OSA (Del Rio et al. 2010; Peng & Prabhakar, 2003). Studies in rats showed that CIH for 10–21 days produces systemic and local CB oxidative stress (Peng & Prabhakar, 2003; Iturriaga et al. 2009; Del Rio et al. 2010, 2011). Peng & Prabhakar (2003) found that pretreatment for 10 days before CIH with a superoxide dismutase mimetic prevents the rat CB chemosensory potentiation, suggesting that superoxide contributes to enhance CB chemoreception. Also, they found a decrease in the activity of the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive enzyme. Exp Physiol 100.2 (2015) pp 149–155. aconitase, as well as a reduced activity of the complex I of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, suggesting that the mitochondrion is one of the sources of ROS. More recently, the same group reported evidence that ROS generated by NADPH oxidase (NOX) also contribute to the CB chemosensory potentiation (Peng et al. 2009). We tested whether local CB oxidative stress play a role in the CB chemosensory potentiation and the progression of hypertension in rats exposed to CIH (Del Rio et al. 2010). We measured 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT) accumulation in the CB as an index of oxidative stress. Superoxide reacts with NO to generate peroxynitrite, a powerful oxidizing agent that nitrates tyrosine residues, forming 3-NT. We found an excessive 3-NT accumulation within CB type I cells and blood vessels in CBs harvested from rats exposed to CIH, which paralleled the enhanced CB chemosensory responses to hypoxia (Del Rio et al. 2010, 2011). In addition, CIH increased plasma lipid peroxidation, enhanced the ventilatory responses to hypoxia and evoked hypertension. Ascorbic acid treatment concomitant with the exposure to CIH reduced the increased plasma lipid peroxidation and the 3-NT accumulation in the CB, reduced the potentiation of the CB chemosensory and ventilatory responses to hypoxia and prevented the hypertension (Del Rio et al. 2010).. Role of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the enhanced CB chemosensory responses induced by CIH. The available evidence suggests that oxidative stress is necessary to potentiate CB hypoxic chemoreception. However, it is a matter of debate whether ROS per se may increase the CB chemosensory discharge (Gonzalez et al. 2007). Thus, it is plausible that molecules downstream of the ROS signalling are responsible for the CB chemosensory potentiation. Indeed, CIH increases the levels of the CB excitatory modulators endothelin-1 (Rey et al. 2006; Pawar et al. 2009; Iturriaga, 2013; Peng et al. 2013) and angiotensin II in the CB (Marcus et al. 2010; Lam et al. 2014) and reduces the levels of the inhibitory modulator NO (Moya et al. 2012). In addition, recent evidence has shown that sustained and intermittent hypoxia may increase the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the CB, with potential implications in OSA (Powell, 2009, Porzionato et al. 2013). Indeed, rat CB type I cells produce interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), with their corresponding receptors. In addition, these cytokines can modulate CB type I cell excitability, neurotransmitter release and chemosensory discharges (Zapata et al. 2011; Porzionato et al. 2013). Shu et al. (2007) found that exogenous application of IL-1β to isolated rat type I cells reduced the O2 -dependent K+ currents, increased the intracellular [Ca2+ ] and increased the  C 2014 The Authors.

(2012) reported that exposure of rats to intermittent hypoxia for 7 days increased the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6 in the CB. Moreover, they found macrophage infiltration, which was reduced by daily treatment with the anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone or ibuprofen. We found that CIH progressively increases the immunoreactive levels of TNF-α and IL-1β in the rat CB without changing their plasma levels, suggesting a potential role for these cytokines in modulating.

It is known that oxidative stress increases the gene expression and synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines, mediated by activation of the transcription factor nuclear factor-κB, activator protein 1 and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (Prabhakar & Semenza, 2012). In response to oxidative stress, hypoxia-inducible factor-1α evokes translocation of nuclear factor-κB to the nucleus, augmenting the expression of pro-inflammatory genes such as IL-1β, TNF-α, inducible nitric oxide. fx (Hz).

Accordingly, we found that CBs harvested from rats exposed to CIH for 21 days displayed higher levels of the p65 subunit of nuclear factor-κB, suggesting a plausible role for this factor in the upregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines during CIH (Del Rio et al. 2012a).. Testing the hypothesis that pro-inflammatory cytokines contribute to the CIH-induced CB chemosensory potentiation. Chronic intermittent hypoxia increases the TNF-α- and IL-1β-immunoreactive levels in the CB, suggesting a potential role for these pro-inflammatory cytokines in modulating the enhanced CB chemosensory activity following CIH (Del Rio et al. 2011). Thus, we investigated whether these cytokines contribute to the CIH-induced CB chemosensory potentiation. We found that ibuprofen, which prevents the CIH-induced increased TNF-α and IL-1β in the CB, failed to impede the potentiation of the CB chemosensory responses to hypoxia, although it effectively prevented the enhanced ventilatory responses to hypoxia and the hypertension (Del Rio et al. 2012b). Figure 1 shows the effects of antioxidant (i.e. ascorbic acid) and anti-inflammatory (i.e. ibuprofen) treatments on the CB chemosensory discharge measured in normoxia and hypoxia from rats exposed to CIH for 21 days. Figure 1A and B illustrates representative recordings of carotid sinus nerve discharges induced by short hypoxic challenges in a sham rat (a rat exposed to air:air cycles instead of a rat exposed to intermittent hypoxia) and in a rat exposed to CIH for 21 days. As is shown in Fig. 1B, CIH increased baseline chemosensory discharges in normoxia and enhanced the chemosensory responses to hypoxia, although no differences were observed between the responses to hyperoxic stimuli. Figure 1C and D summarizes the effects of ascorbic acid and ibuprofen on CB chemosensory discharges measured in normoxia and in response to 10% O2 . Ascorbic acid effectively prevented both the increase in CB chemosensory discharges in normoxia and in response to hypoxia in rats that underwent CIH (Del Rio et al. 2010). In contrast, ibuprofen treatment had no significant effect on the CIH-induced CB discharge potentiation to hypoxia, but prevented the potentiation of CB chemosensory discharges in normoxic conditions (Del Rio et al. 2012b). Figure 2 summarizes the effects of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory treatment on the CB chemosensory responses to several inspired oxygen levels. Two-way ANOVA showed that the overall CB chemosensory curve for P O2 was different in CIH- and CIH-plus-ibuprofen-treated rats (P  0.001) relative to the other groups. A post hoc test showed that CB chemosensory discharge in rats exposed to CIH was. Exp Physiol 100.2 (2015) pp 149–155. higher, not only in the hypoxic range but also in normoxia. Ascorbic acid treatment prevented both hypoxic and normoxic CB chemosensory potentiation, while ibuprofen prevented the potentiation of the normoxic CB chemosensory discharge (P O2 of 140 mmHg) but did not reduce the chemosensory potentiation in the hypoxic range (P O2 < 140 mmHg). Although Lam et al. (2008) reported that the intracellular [Ca2+ ] in CB glomus cells increases with the application of IL-1β and IL-6, and Shu et al. (2007) found that IL-1β and TNF-α may modify the carotid sinus nerve discharge, the fact that pro-inflammatory cytokines produce chemosensory excitation is not well established. Indeed, O’Connor et al. (2012) found that that IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α did not elicit changes of vagal paraganglia discharge during normoxia or hypoxia, recorded from the rat superior laryngeal nerve. Chronic intermittent hypoxia-induced cardiorespiratory alterations in normoxia: are the pro-inflammatory cytokines necessary?. Following 21 days of CIH, there is a significant increase in 3-NT formation within the CB (Del Rio et al. 2010). As shown in Fig. 3, ibuprofen did not reduce the increase in 3-NT levels (P > 0.05) compared with rats exposed to CIH that did not receive the anti-inflammatory drug. Given that ibuprofen prevented the increase of TNF-α and IL-1β. 300 CIH CIH+AA CIH+IBU Sham. 200 fx (Hz). 152. 100. 0 0. 100. 200. 300 400 500 PO2 (mmHg). 600. 700. Figure 2.

Exp Physiol 100.2 (2015) pp 149–155. levels in the CB but failed to impede the formation of 3-NT, it is likely that the enhanced CB chemosensory responses to hypoxia rely on the oxidative stress. Interestingly, our results show a clear dissociation between the effects of pro-inflammatory cytokines on chemosensory discharges during normoxia and hypoxia. Ibuprofen treatment, which did not reduce the CIH-induced oxidative stress in the CB and failed to prevent the increase in hypoxic CB chemosensory discharges induced by CIH, was able to reduce the normoxic chemosensory discharges (Del Rio et al. 2012b). Thus, pro-inflammatory cytokines may contribute to increase the baseline discharge in normoxia, increasing the tonic CB chemosensory drive to the central cardiorespiratory control centres. Accordingly, we found that ibuprofen treatment effectively prevents the development of ventilatory acclimatization as well as the hypertension induced by CIH (Del Rio et al. 2012). Furthermore, we found that ibuprofen markedly reduces the CIH-induced activation of c-fos-positive neurons in the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS; Del Rio et al. 2012b). It is important to note that the NTS is considered to be the first region where the respiratory gas and blood pressure sensory afferent inputs are primarily integrated (Kumar & Prabhakar, 2012). Thus, it is plausible that the enhanced CB chemoreflex drive in normoxia, as a result of a pro-inflammatory CB state, leads to the cardiorespiratory acclimatization during CIH. However, we cannot rule out a direct effect of pro-inflammatory cytokines on ventilatory and blood pressure control centres located in. A. B. Integrated optical density. Sham. CIH+IBU.

This interpretation is supported by the fact that ibuprofen reduced both the increased ventilatory hypoxic response and the increased IL-1 and IL-6 levels in the brainstem of rats exposed to chronic hypoxia, suggesting that inflammatory processes in the CNS contribute to the ventilatory acclimatization elicited by sustained hypoxia (Popa et al. 2011). In addition, inflammation in the NTS has been proposed to contribute to the development of neurogenic hypertension. Indeed, Waki et al. (2010) found that pro-inflammatory molecules, such as the junctional adhesion molecule 1, were highly expressed in the NTS of spontaneously hypertensive rats, suggesting that cytokines and chemokines may contribute to hypertension by increasing the neuronal activity in the NTS.. Perspectives. Chronic intermittent hypoxia enhances ventilatory and cardiovascular responses to acute hypoxia, suggesting a major role for the CB in the pathophysiology of OSA. New evidence has shown that CIH elicits oxidative stress in the CB, which contributes to enhance the chemosensory discharges in normoxia and hypoxia, but the exact nature of the molecular targets of the oxidative stress involved in the chemosensory potentiation remains to be elucidated. Based on the available experimental evidence, CIH increases the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines within the CB, and anti-inflammatory treatment markedly reduces the tonic CB afferent discharge in normoxia but fails to decrease the CB hypoxic response. Thus, it is plausible that the effect of ROS on CB chemoreception is mediated by molecules produced downstream of the ROS signal, which may modulate CB oxygen sensing. acting on blood vessels and/or glomus cells. Increased endothelin-1 and angiotensin II and decreased NO levels in the CB have been proposed as possible mediators of the chemosensory potentiation induced by CIH. Interestingly, all these molecules are downstream targets of the increased ROS production that takes place following CIH. Indeed, it has been shown that ROS are key contributors to the enhanced CB response to hypoxia and to the augmented tonic discharges. However, the end-target molecular entity responsible for the increased neural reactivity to hypoxia in CIH is still debatable. In addition, we provide evidence that CIH increases the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the CB. Nevertheless, no studies have shown the molecular pathways affected by pro-inflammatory molecules in the CB exposed to CIH. Therefore, future studies designed to explain how the CIH-induced oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory cytokines alter ion channel function, intracellular Ca2+ dynamics and transmitter release in the CB glomus cells will provide new insights into the pathophysiology of OSA..
