Although activation of the NADPH oxidase complex in phagolysosomal or lysosomal membranes has been reported, in situ generation of either H 2 O 2 or O 2 •-in these organelles in live cells has not been demonstrated [ 6 ] . This is partly due to the lack of appropriate indicators that can monitor the formation of these ROS and the concurrent change of oxidative activity in these vacuoles.
This study was designed to examine morphological alterations in RPE during oxidative stress, the involvement of ERK MAP kinase and 4-HNE and to test the hypothesis that PPARγ activation can prevent oxidative damage on RPE cells.
Their data suggest that when cells encounter oxidative stress, a key cysteinyl residue near the active site of methionine synthase (MetE) is glutathionylated.
The first proposes that the mutated SOD1 interacts with NO to produce peroxynitrite (ONOO -), which damages proteins by modifying tyrosine to nitrotyrosine residues [ 42 43 44 ] . The second postulates that the mutant SOD1 possesses an enhanced peroxidase activity, which causes oxidative modification of nucleic acids, proteins and lipids [ 45 46 47 ] . Both of these activities require copper at the active center of SOD1.
Mitochondrial function and synaptic transmission may be especially affected, and both of these can secondarily increase oxidative stress within the cytosol (Greenamyre and Hastings 2004).
