Protection by thiols of the mitochondrial complexes from 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal

In the present study, the effects of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) on highly purified pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) and its catalytic components in vitro and on PDC, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase complex (KGDC), and the branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase complex (BCKDC) activities in cultured human HepG2 cells were investigated. Among the PDC components, the activity of the dihydrolipoamide acetyltransferase-E3-binding protein subcomplex (E2-E3BP) only was decreased by HNE. Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (E3) protected the E2-E3BP subcomplex from HNE inactivation in the absence of the substrates. In the presence of E3 and NADH, when lipoyl groups were reduced, higher inactivation of the E2-E3BP subcomplex by HNE was observed. Purified PDC was protected from HNE-induced inactivation by several thiol compounds including lipoic acid plus [LA-plus; 2-(N,N-dimethylamine)ethylamidolipoate(.)HCl]. Treatment of cultured HepG2 cells with HNE resulted in a significant reduction of PDC and KGDC activities, whereas BCKDC activity decreased to a lesser extent. Lipoyl compounds afforded protection from HNE-induced inhibition of PDC. This protection was higher in the presence of cysteine and reduced glutathione. Cysteine was able to restore PDC activity to some extent after HNE treatment. These findings show that thiols, including lipoic acid, provide protection against HNE-induced inactivation of lipoyl-containing complexes in the mitochondria.

Antioxidative and prooxidative effects of coumarin derivatives on free radical initiated and photosensitized peroxidation of human low-density lipoprotein

The antioxidative and/or prooxidative activity of 4-methylcoumanrin (MC), 7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin (HMC) and 7,8-dihydroxy-4-methylcoumarin (DHMC), respectively, in the peroxidation of human low-density lipoprotein (LDL) has been studied. The peroxidation was initiated either thermally by water-soluble initiator 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane hydrochloride) (AAPH), or photochemically by a triplet sensitizer benzophenone (BP) or its water-soluble analogue disodium 3,3'-disulfobenzophenonate (DSBP). The reaction kinetics were monitored by the uptake of oxygen and the depletion of alpha-tocopherol (TOH) present in the native LDL. Kinetic analysis of the peroxidation process demonstrated that DHMC is a good antioxidant for both the AAPH-initiated and BP- and DSBP-photosensitized peroxidation; HMC is a prooxidant for the AAPH-initiated and DSBP-photosensitized peroxidation, but an antioxidant for the BP-sensitized peroxidation; MC is a prooxidant in all of these initiation conditions. The antioxidative action of the coumarin derivatives may include trapping the initiating radicals, trapping the propagating lipid peroxyl radicals, recycling alpha-tocopherol and/or deactivating the excited photosensitizer.
