L-cystein protects the pigment epithelium from acute sodium iodate toxicity.

Intravenous sodium iodate damages the retinal pigment epithelium, causing immediate loss of the electroretinogram c-wave and eventual pigmentary retinopathy. L-cystein, an agent that enhances the c-wave, has been reported to prevent the late development of pigmentary degeneration. We found in rabbits that L-cystein given 30 min before, or simultaneously with (but not 30 min after) sodium iodate also blocks the loss of the c-wave. This result occurred at doses of L-cystein lower than those needed to produce enhancement of the c-wave, suggesting that these two actions of L-cystein may be independent. The iodate-blocking action of L-cystein may depend on chemical interaction.

Gating in iodate-modified single cardiac Na+ channels.

Elementary Na+ currents were recorded at 19 degrees C during 220-msec lasting step depolarizations in cell-attached and inside-out patches from cultured neonatal rat cardiocytes in order to study the modifying influence of iodate, bromate and glutaraldehyde on single cardiac Na+ channels. Iodate (10 mmol/liter) removed Na+ inactivation and caused repetitive, burst-like channel activity after treating the cytoplasmic channel surface. In contrast to normal Na+ channels under control conditions, iodate-modified Na+ channels attain two conducting states, a short-lasting one with a voltage-independent lifetime close to 1 msec and, likewise tested between -50 and +10 mV, a long-lasting one being apparently exponentially dependent on voltage. Channel modification by bromate (10 mmol/liter) and glutaraldehyde (0.5 mmol/liter) also included the occurrence of two open states. Also, burst duration depended apparently exponentially on voltage and increased when shifting the membrane in the positive direction, but there was no evidence for two bursting states. Chemically modified Na+ channels retain an apparently normal unitary conductance (12.8 +/- 0.5 pS). Of the two substates observed, one of them is remarkable in that it is mostly attained from full-state openings and is very short living in nature; the voltage-independent lifetime was close to 2 msec. Despite removal of inactivation, open probability progressively declined during membrane depolarization. The underlying deactivation process is strongly voltage sensitive but, in contrast to slow Na+ inactivation, responds to a voltage shift in the positive direction with a retardation in kinetics. Chemically modified Na+ channels exhibit a characteristic bursting state much shorter than in DPI-modified Na+ channels, a difference not consistent with the hypothesis of common kinetic properties in noninactivating Na+ channels.

Effects of sodium iodate on the electroretinogram c-wave in the cat.

The c-wave of the vitreal electroretinogram decreased in amplitude and was replaced by a slow, polarity reversed potential following an i.v. infusion of sodium iodate, as first described by Noell. Intraretinal recordings showed that the negative-going c-wave, induced by iodate (30 mg/kg), was composed of reduced slow pIII and trans-epithelial c-wave. The effects of iodate on these components may originate from direct effects on the retinal pigment epithelial cells, namely, a large decrease in the trans-epithelial resistance. Other factors could have contributed to the change in the c-wave amplitude.

Transport of fluorescein in the rabbit eye after treatment with sodium iodate.

The outward active transport and the inward permeability of the blood-retinal barrier were studied in the rabbit eye after i.v. administration of sodium iodate. The active transport was evaluated from the half-time of disappearance of the vitreous fluorescein following intravitreal administration, and the inward permeability was evaluated from the vitreous concentration of fluorescein monoglucuronide after i.v. administration. The half-time of the vitreous fluorescein was 3.5 +/- 0.3 (mean +/- S.D.) hr, and 3.9 +/- 0.2 hr before and within 6 hr after iodate administration, respectively. After 24 hr, the half-time was 11.7 +/- 1.7 hr, similar to that of fluorescein monoglucuronide, 12.0 +/- 2.7 hr. The vitreous and the anterior chamber concentration of fluorescein monoglucuronide was measured at 1 hr after the i.v. dye injection. The vitreous concentration in the rabbits given iodate 3 hr before the dye injection was significantly greater than in the normal eyes, while the anterior chamber concentration was not different. Since fluorescein is rapidly metabolized to fluorescein monoglucuronide, differences in parameters determined using systemic fluorescein under two treatments or in disease states may be the result of alteration of the dynamics of fluorescein, fluorescein monoglucuronide, or both.

Flow-injection spectrophotometric determination of periodate and iodate by their reaction with pyrogallol red in acidic media.

A simple and efficient flow-injection method was used with good results to determine periodate and iodate in water. The method is based on the reaction of periodate or iodate with pyrogallol red in sulfuric acid media. The reaction was monitored spectrophotometrically by measuring the decrease in absorbance of pyrogallol red at 470 nm. The chemical and FIA variables were established using the univariate and simplex optimization methods. The calibration curve was linear over the concentration ranges of 0.8-73.0 and 2.0-100.0 microM for IO4- and IO3-, respectively. The detection limits were 0.7 and 1.0 microM for IO4- and IO3-, respectively. The sample throughput was 20 +/- 5 h(-1). The influence of potential interfering ions in the determination of the anions was tested. The relative standard deviations for 4.20 and 5.73 microM periodate and iodate were 1.8 and 2.2%, respectively.

Studies on the handling of retinotoxic doses of iodate in rabbits.

Accumulation of iodate in eye tissues and fluids as a possible explanation of the retinotoxic effect of iodate has been studied by intravenous injection of NaIO3(30 mg/kg), 125IO-3 and 131I- in rabbits. 125IO-3 was determined in fluids and tissue extracts by precipitation with BaCl2 after addition of KIO3. 125IO-3 was rapidly broken down in blood (T 1/2 = 14 min.). 125IO-3 was not present in aqueous humour, vitreous or extracts from retina, choroid + pigmentary epithelium or liver. Concentrations of 125I were comparable in blood, choroid + pigmentary epithelium and liver tissue while in vitreous and aqueous humour low concentrations of 125I were found which, however, increased gradually during 5 hrs after injection to reach levels comparable with blood levels of 125I. Retina had a low concentration of 125I. The ratio 125I/131I (R) in blood decreases during the first 60 min. after injection followed by a slow rise. R in retina, choroid + pigmentary epithelium and liver was the same as in blood at the same time after injection. During the first 80 min. after injection R was higher in vitreous than in blood while it was lower in aqueous humour than in blood. At longer times after injection R was identical in the three fluids. The investigation has been supplemented with whole body scintigraphy of rabbits injected with NaIO3(30 mg/kg) and 131IO-3 or 131I-. The reduction kinetics of IO-3 to I- by some body fluids, tissues, cystein and glutathione was also studied. It is concluded that the retinotoxic effect of iodate is not due to accumulation of IO-3 in eye tissues, but more likely to damage to biochemical mechanisms involved in the reduction of IO-3 to I-.

Changes in the juxtapapillary retinal pigment epithelium following intravenous injection of sodium iodate. A light and electron microscopic study using horseradish peroxidase as a tracer.

The effect of an intravenous injection of sodium iodate on the retinal pigment epithelium immediately surrounding the optic nerve head has been investigated using horseradish peroxidase as a morphological tracer. A sodium iodate injection leads to a necrotic reaction of practically the complete retinal pigment epithelium. The juxtapapillary pigment epithelium, however, showed only attenuation and depigmentation without any necrotic reaction 4 and 12 days after the injection. Twenty-six days following the injection the epithelium had almost normalized. The result of this study thus demonstrates a noteworthy resistance of the juxtapapillary retinal pigment epithelium against the sodium iodate effect. At no stage was there a clear indication of a breakdown of the permeability barrier constituted by the juxtapapillary retinal pigment epithelium. Horseradish peroxidase moved into the peripapillary sensory retina by lateral diffusion from the surrounding retina and diffused into the optic nerve head proper, confirming the presence of a diffusional pathway through the Kuhnt intermediary tissue.

Retinal pigment epithelium adhesion to Bruch's membrane is weakened by hemicholinium-3 and sodium iodate.

We have studied the effects of hemicholinium-3 (HC-3), an outer segment and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) toxin and sodium iodate, an RPE toxin, on retinal and RPE adhesion in rabbits. During the first 3 days after intravitreal HC-3, the force required to peel retina from RPE fell to 50% of normal, and large patches of RPE separated from Bruch's membrane and adhered to the peeled retina. The same phenomena were observed during the first 100 min after intravenous sodium iodate. Beyond 3 days after HC-3, and 100 min after sodium iodate, the peeling force became even weaker, but separation occurred at the subretinal space or by fragmentation of RPE cells. Acute RPE toxicity probably accounts for the initial weakening of the bond between RPE and Bruch's membrane.

Potassium iodate toxic retinopathy: a report of five cases.

BACKGROUND: Potassium iodate (KIO3) is an iodized salt used for iodine supplementation in areas endemic for goiter. KIO3 overdose in humans is rare. The authors report unusual cases of retinal toxicity from KIO3 overdose that caused acute vision loss. METHODS: The clinical manifestations, toxic dosage of iodate, and ocular changes in five patients who had taken a KIO3 overdose were analyzed. Electroretinography, visual evoked potential (VEP), and fundus fluorescein angiography (FA) were performed to study retinal function and changes. RESULTS: Two men and three women (age 22-65 years) ingested KIO3 solution at a concentration between 187 and 470 mg/kg body weight. Visual acuity ranged from light perception with projection to counting fingers and decreased from 2 to 12 hours after ingestion. Fundus FA showed bilateral extensive areas of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) window defects, and electroretinography and VEP showed marked impairment of retinal function. Visual acuity improved from counting fingers to 20/80 in 3 months. CONCLUSION: Potassium iodate can produce retinal toxicity that damages RPE and photoreceptor cells. The recovery of retinal function depends on the amount of chemical absorption, the regeneration of RPE, and the recovery function of photoreceptor cells.

[Study on the new method for spectrophotometric determination of potassium iodate in salt].

A new simple, fast and sensitive spectrophotometric method in water phase for the determination of micro amount of potassium iodate in salt was studied. The method is based on chromogenic reaction of crystal violet on I3- produced from potassium iodate reacting on KI in HCl medium and using OP as the solubility-increasing reagent. When applying the proposed method to determining potassium iodate in salt, the results obtained were in agreement with those of ultrovilet spectrophotometry.

Effects of intravenous iodoacetate and iodate on pH outside rod photoreceptors in the cat retina.

PURPOSE: Effects of intravenous iodoacetate (a glycolysis inhibitor) and iodate (a metabolism inhibitor selective to retinal pigment epithelium) on light-evoked alkalinizations and hypoxia-induced acidifications were studied in the dark-adapted cat retina, in vivo, to learn about pH regulation. METHODS: pH was recorded in the extracellular space surrounding rod photoreceptors with double-barrelled H(+)-selective microelectrodes. RESULTS: Intravenous infusion of 5 mg/kg iodoacetate-induced alkalinizations in the outer nuclear layer and suppressed both light-evoked and hypoxia-induced pH responses immediately. Iodate injection (30 mg/kg) produced acidifications in the subretinal space and affected light-evoked alkalinizations gradually but not hypoxia-induced acidifications. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that rods glycolysis plays an important role in both light-evoked and hypoxia-induced pH responses. And the retinal pigment epithelium may have little concern with light-evoked alkalinizations except that it plays an important role in regenerating the rhodopsin to be needed for the light responses of photoreceptors. Furthermore, the finding of the intravenous-iodoacetate-induced alkalinization in the outer nuclear layer supports that acid production by rods in the dark is originated from glycolysis to support the dark current. The iodate-induced acidification in the subretinal space indicators that the retinal pigment epithelium might actively transport acids from the subretinal space to the choroid.

Speciation studies by capillary electrophoresis - simultaneous determination of iodide and iodate in seawater.

A capillary electrophoresis (CE) method was developed for the simple and highly-sensitive determination of iodine species in seawater. The proposed method is based on the on-capillary preconcentration of iodide and iodate using the principle of transient isotachophoresis (tITP) stacking, and direct UV detection of the separated species at 226 and 210 nm, respectively. The preconcentration procedure takes advantage of the electrokinetic introduction of the terminating ion [2-( N-morpholino)ethanesulfonate (MES)] into the capillary, that enables a longer tITP state. The appropriate conditions for the tITP step were optimized by varying the MES and sample injection time and the concentration of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC). The latter component of the separation electrolyte (SE) was shown to strongly affect the migration and therefore the enrichment of iodide due to specific ion-association. The optimized separations were performed in 12.5 mM CTAC, 0.5 M NaCl (pH 2.4). Valid calibration is demonstrated in the range 3-60 microg x L(-1) iodide ( R=0.9992) and 40-800 microg x L(-1) iodate ( R=0.9994). The detection limits achieved were 0.23 microg x L(-1) (2 nM) for iodide and 10 microg x L(-1) (57 nM) for iodate. Such sensitivity and linearity thresholds allowed the reported tITP-CE system to be applied to direct speciation analysis of surface and seabed seawater. The comparison of CE results with those of an ion-chromatography (IC) technique proved that the method has acceptable accuracy.

Excision of uranium oxide chains and ribbons in the novel one-dimensional uranyl iodates K(2)[(UO(2))3(IO(3))(4)O(2)] and Ba[(UO(2)2(IO(3))(2)O(2)](H(2)O).

The alkali metal and alkaline-earth metal uranyl iodates K(2)[(UO(2))(3)(IO(3))(4)O(2)] and Ba[(UO(2))(2)(IO(3))(2)O(2)](H(2)O) have been prepared from the hydrothermal reactions of KCl or BaCl(2) with UO(3) and I(2)O(5) at 425 and 180 degrees C, respectively. While K(2)[(UO(2))(3)(IO(3))(4)O(2)] can be synthesized under both mild and supercritical conditions, the yield increases from <5% to 73% as the temperature is raised from 180 to 425 degrees C. Ba[(UO(2))(2)(IO(3))(2)O(2)](H(2)O), however, has only been isolated from reactions performed in the mild temperature regime. Thermal measurements (DSC) indicate that K(2)[(UO(2))(3)(IO(3))(4)O(2)] is more stable than Ba[(UO(2))(2)(IO(3))(2)O(2)](H(2)O) and that both compounds decompose through thermal disproportionation at 579 and 575 degrees C, respectively. The difference in the thermal behavior of these compounds provides a basis for the divergence of their preparation temperatures. The structure of K(2)[(UO(2))(3)(IO(3))(4)O(2)] is composed of [(UO(2))(3)(IO(3))(4)O(2)](2)(-) chains built from the edge-sharing UO(7) pentagonal bipyramids and UO(6) octahedra. Ba[(UO(2))(2)(IO(3))(2)O(2)](H(2)O) consists of one-dimensional [(UO(2))(2)(IO(3))(2)O(2)](2)(-) ribbons formed from the edge sharing of distorted UO(7) pentagonal bipyramids. In both compounds the iodate groups occur in both bridging and monodentate binding modes and further serve to terminate the edges of the uranium oxide chains. The K(+) or Ba(2+) cations separate the chains or ribbons in these compounds forming bonds with terminal oxygen atoms from the iodate ligands. Crystallographic data: K(2)[(UO(2))(3)(IO(3))(4)O(2)], triclinic, space group P_1, a = 7.0372(5) A, b = 7.7727(5) A, c = 8.9851(6) A, alpha = 93.386(1) degrees, beta = 105.668(1) degrees, gamma = 91.339(1) degrees, Z = 1; Ba[(UO(2))(2)(IO(3))(2)O(2)](H(2)O), monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c, a = 8.062(4) A, b = 6.940(3) A, c = 21.67(1), beta= 98.05(1) degrees, Z = 4.

Structural modulation of molybdenyl iodate architectures by alkali metal cations in AMoO3(IO3) (A = K, Rb, Cs): a facile route to new polar materials with large SHG responses.

Three new molybdenyl iodates, KMoO3(IO3) (1), RbMoO3(IO3) (2), and CsMoO3(IO3) (3), have been prepared through the hydrothermal reactions of MoO3 with AIO4 (A = K, Rb, or Cs) at 180 C. These compounds are isolated as nearly colorless, air-stable crystals. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments reveal that 1 possesses a corrugated layered structure constructed from molybdenum oxide chains that are bridged by iodate anions. The puckering of the layers is caused by the alignment of bent molybdenyl (MoO2(2+)) groups along one side of the molybdenum oxide chains. The K+ cations separate these layers from one another and serve to balance charge. In contrast, compounds 2 and 3, which are isostructural, form three-dimensional structures with small cavities filled with Rb+ or Cs+ cations. The differences between the structures of 1 and those of 2 and 3 are due to rotation of the molybdenyl units as translation occurs down the molybdenum oxide chains in order to accommodate the increased size of the Rb+ and Cs+ cations. This rotation allows for the iodate anions to bridge the molybdenum oxide chains in an additional dimension, creating a three-dimensional network structure. Furthermore, while 1 crystallizes in a centrosymmetric space group, 2 and 3 crystallize in polar space groups. Second-harmonic generation measurements on 2 and 3 show large responses of 400x alpha-quartz. Differential scanning calorimetry measurements demonstrate that 2 and 3 are thermally stable to 494 and 486 C, respectively. UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra of these compounds show a high degree of transparency from 1 to 3 eV and a band gap of 3.1 eV.

Spectrophotometric determination of periodate, iodate and bromate mixtures based on their reaction with iodide.

A rapid, simple, precise and accurate method is proposed for the determination of ternary mixtures of periodate-iodate-bromate based on their reaction with iodide ion at different pH values. The absorbance was measured at 352 nm. Three sets of reaction conditions were developed. In the first set of conditions, only periodate reacted with iodide, but in the second set the periodate and iodate reacted with iodide and in the third set the three ions reacted with iodide during the first 3 min after initiation of the reaction. The method could be used for individual determinations of periodate, iodate and bromate in the concentration range of 0.05-8.0 microg/ml, 0.05-5.0 microg/ml and 0.2-12 microg/ml, respectively. The data were evaluated by simultaneous equations.

Electrochemical reduction and flow detection of iodate on (Bu4N)2Mo6O19 self-assembled monolayer.

A stable monolayer of the inorganic-organic hybrid polyoxometalate (Bu4N)2Mo6O19, denoted as Mo6O19, was formed on a sodium-3-mercapto-1-propanesulfonate (MPPS)-covered gold electrode surface, interlaced with an anionic poly(dimethyldiallylammonium chloride) (PDDA) binding layer based on the electrostatic self-assembled (ESA) technique. Electrochemical characterization of the Mo6O19 self-assembled thin films on the solid surface by cyclic voltammetry and AC impedance spectroscopy revealed a stable and sensitive electrocatalytic response to the reduction of iodate. Iodate was determined amperometrically through a flow injection cell at the modified electrode in the concentration range of 1.0 x 10(-6) to 1.0 x 10(-1) M with a detection limit of 8 x 10(-8) M (signal-to-noise ratio = 3). Performance was improved to meet practical needs compared with previously reported analogues.

Specific conversion of s4 U to U in Escherichia coli tRNA by iodate oxidation.

The minor nucleoside 4-thiouridine in Escherichia coli tRNA is transformed selectively to uridine by iodate oxidation at acidic pH. The four major nucleotides were found to be inert under these conditions. The iodate oxidation appears to be more specific than the previous conversion methods reported, and has the advantage that it does not affect the chargeability of most tRNA.

Crystal structures of phosphate, iodide and iodate-inhibited phospholipase C from Bacillus cereus and structural investigations of the binding of reaction products and a substrate analogue.

The crystal structure of the complex formed between phospholipase C (PLC) from Bacillus cereus and inorganic phosphate (Pi), which is an inhibitor, has been determined and refined to 2.1 A resolution. The final R-factor is 19.7%. We have also studied the binding of two other inhibitors, iodide and iodate, to PLC. X-ray data for these two complexes were collected to 2.8 A resolution during the search for heavy-atom derivatives. A series of screening experiments where PLC crystals have been treated with several reaction products and a substrate analogue were carried out to clarify the question of substrate binding. The results have so far been ambiguous but are discussed briefly. Phosphate and iodate are both found to bind to the three metal ions in the protein molecule, suggesting that these ions are involved directly in the catalytic process and thereby identifying the active site. PLC also binds nine iodide ions, eight of which are on the surface of the molecule and of lower occupancy. The ninth blocks the entrance to the active site cleft and is of higher occupancy. Altogether, these results suggest that the substrate, a phospholipid, is associated directly with the metal ions during catalysis.
