Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) is toxic and causes cell death. However, this effect is inhibited by reaction with taurine, which generates taurine chloramine (TauCl), thereby protecting the cells from HOCl-generated toxicity. TauCl has been shown to inhibit the production of inflammatory mediators like O2•−, H2O2 and NO. In this study, RAW 264.7 macrophages treated with TauCl were protected from death caused by H2O2. TauCl increased the expression of peroxiredoxin-1, thioredoxin-1 and heme oxygenase (HO)-1, the anti-oxidant enzymes normally induced by activation of NF-E2-related factor-2 (Nrf2). TauCl increased nuclear translocation of Nrf2 and binding to the anti-oxidant response element. These data suggest that TauCl produced abundantly in the activated neutrophils and released to surrounding cells in the inflamed tissues may induce the expression of cytoprotective anti-oxidant enzymes. Elevation of HO activity via induction of HO-1 expression within neighboring cells may provide protection from cytotoxicity caused by inflammatory oxidants like H2O2.
