Synergistic interaction between vitamin E and the bile pigments bilirubin and biliverdin 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The oxidation of soybean phosphatidylcholine (PC) liposomes initiated with a lipid-soluble azo compound within the liposomal membranes has been studied in the absence and presence of membrane-bound vitamin E and water-soluble bile pigments. In the absence of vitamin E, lipid peroxidation proceeded linearly and without delay. Low micromolar amounts of bilirubin ditaurine (BR-DT, a model compound of conjugated bilirubin) or biliverdin (BV) inhibited the oxidation of PC significantly and in a concentration-dependent way. In contrast, neither taurine, ascorbic acid nor reduced glutathione inhibited significantly under these conditions. Both bile pigments were consumed during their protective action. Vitamin E incorporated into the liposomal membranes suppressed the oxidation initially almost completely, thereby producing an induction period. In the combined presence of vitamin E and either of the two bile pigments at 10 microM each, this induction period was increased by at least 200%. In contrast, when 10 microM vitamin E was combined with an equimolar concentration of reduced glutathione, the induction period increased by only about 30%. BR-DT and BV both spared the consumption of vitamin E during the oxidation of PC liposomes. These results demonstrate that conjugated bilirubin and BV located in the aqueous phase can directly scavenge lipid radicals to some extent. Furthermore, both bile pigments can act synergistically with membrane-bound vitamin E to prevent lipid peroxidation initiated in the lipid phase, most likely through regeneration of the vitamin from its chromanoxyl radical. 相似文献

Azo compounds enable us to generate peroxyl radicals by thermal decomposition at a constant rate and at a desired site, that is, water-soluble compounds produce initiating radicals in an aqueous phase and lipid-soluble compounds initiate the oxidation within the membrane-lipid layer. Using these radicals generated in different sites, we oxidized red blood cell ghost membranes to study the relationships between alpha-tocopherol depletion, initiation of lipid peroxidation, and protein damage. When radicals were generated in the aqueous phase, the loss of membrane protein thiols was observed concurrently with the consumption of membrane tocopherol and after tocopherol was exhausted the peroxidation of membrane lipids occurred. On the other hand, when radicals were initiated within the lipid region, the oxidation of thiols and the formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances were suppressed to give an induction period until tocopherol fell below a critical level. Our results indicate that the surface thiols of extrinsic proteins may compete with alpha-tocopherol for trapping aqueous radicals and spare tocopherol to some extent, whereas the oxidation of intrinsic buried thiols may commence due to lipid-derived radicals produced after tocopherol was consumed. In conclusion, alpha-tocopherol in the membrane can break the free radical chain efficiently to inhibit the lipid peroxidation. However, the effect of tocopherol on the inhibition of membrane protein damage, exhibited by the loss of thiols and the formation of high-molecular-weight proteins, would be different depending on the site of initial radical generation. 相似文献

A study is made of the effect of GSH as a co-antioxidant with vitamin E during free radical chain autoxidation inhibition studies of dilinoleoylphosphatidylcholine (DLPC) liposomes. Oxidations are initiated in the aqueous phase with azobis(2-amidinopropane hydrochloride) and in the bilayer phase of DLPC with azobis(2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile) under known conditions of the rate of free radical chain initiation (Ri). In reactions initiated in the aqueous phase, GSH is not an efficient antioxidant when acting alone; however, in cooperation with vitamin E in the bilayers, it does effect significant extensions of the efficient induction period of vitamin E. Quantitative studies show that GSH "spares" 0.4 molecules of vitamin E in the bilayer/molecule of GSH and therefore terminates approximately 0.8 peroxyl radical chains as a co-antioxidant with vitamin E. In contrast, GSH is not an effective co-antioxidant with an efficient water-soluble antioxidant, 6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-carboxylate (Trolox). GSH spares only 0.08 molecules of Trolox/molecule of GSH during autoxidation initiated in the aqueous phase with azobis(2-amidinopropane hydrochloride). The inhibition rate constant for GSH in trapping aqueous phase peroxyls is at least an order of magnitude less than that of Trolox. When peroxidation is initiated in the bilayer phase of DLPC with azobis(2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile), GSH is not an effective co-antioxidant with either vitamin E in the bilayer or Trolox in the water. Comparatively higher ratios of GSH to E (GSH/E = 50) or Trolox (GSH/Trolox = 30) are required to give significant extensions of the E or Trolox induction periods. GSH is estimated to preserve only approximately one vitamin E or Trolox molecule for a hundred GSH for peroxidations initiated in the DLPC bilayers. From the kinetic studies and GSH decay studies during inhibition periods, it is concluded that GSH does not act synergistically by regenerating ArOH from the phenoxyl, ArO, radical of vitamin E or Trolox. The mode of antioxidant action of GSH is concluded to be that of trapping peroxyl radicals in the aqueous phase and thereby indirectly sparing vitamin E in the bilayer. 相似文献

Peroxidation of lipids is of significant interest owing to the evidence that peroxyl radicals and products of lipid peroxidation
may be involved in the toxicity of compounds initiating a deteriorative reaction in the processing and storage of lipid-containing
foods. In view of the significance of the antioxidant role of the dietary compound vitamin E and its water-soluble analogue
Trolox in research of lipid-containing foods, it is desirable to determine more specifically how and where they operate its
antioxidant activity in lipid membranes. In this study, unilamellar liposomes of phosphatidylcholine were used as membrane
mimetic systems to estimate the antioxidant properties of vitamin E and Trolox and establish a relationship between their
interactions with the membrane and their consequent antioxidant activity. Lipid peroxidation was initiated by the peroxyl
radical (ROO•) in lipid and aqueous media by the thermal decomposition of azocompounds and was assessed by the fluorescence intensity decay
of the fluorescent probe diphenylhexatriene propionic acid. Results obtained showed that membrane lipoperoxidation is related
not only to the scavenging characteristics of the compounds studied but also to their ability to interact with the lipid bilayers,
and consequently liposomes provide additional information to that obtained currently from assays performed in aqueous buffer
media. 相似文献

The passive permeation rates of DMPO and DEPMPO spin traps and their hydroxyl radical adducts through liposomal membranes were measured using ESR spectroscopy. For the spin traps, we measured the time-dependent change in the signal intensity of the OH-adduct, which is formed by a reaction between the penetrated spin trap and hydroxyl radicals produced by the UV-radiolysis of H(2)O(2) inside the liposomes. The hydroxyl radicals produced outside the liposomes were quenched with polyethylene glycol. For the OH-adduct, pre-formed adduct was mixed with liposomes and the time-dependent change of the ESR signal was measured in the presence of a line-broadening reagent outside the liposomes to make the signal outside the liposomes invisible. Both the spin traps and their OH-adducts diffused across the lipid membranes rapidly and reached equilibrium within tens of seconds. These findings suggest that if used for the detection of free radicals inside cells, these spin traps should be well distributed in cells and even in organelles. 相似文献

Lipid radicals: properties and detection by spin trapping 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Unsaturated lipids are rapidly oxidized to toxic products such as lipid hydroperoxides, especially when transition metals such as iron or copper are present. In a Fenton-type reaction Fe2+ converts lipid hydroperoxides to the very short-lived lipid alkoxyl radicals. The reaction was started upon the addition of Fe2+ to an aqueous linoleic acid hydroperoxide (LOOH) emulsion and the spin trap in the absence of oxygen. Even when high concentrations of spin traps were added to the incubation mixture, only secondary radical adducts were detected, probably due to the rapid re-arrangement of the primary alkoxyl radicals. With the commercially available nitroso spin trap MNP we observed a slightly immobilized ESR spectrum with only one hydrogen splitting, indicating the trapping of a methinyl fragment of a lipid radical. With DMPO or 5-diethoxyphosphoryl-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DEPMPO) adducts were detected with carbon-centered lipid radical, with acyl radical, and with the hydroxyl radical. We also synthesized lipophilic derivatives of the spin trap DEPMPO in order to detect lipid radical species generated in the lipid phase. With all spin traps studied a lipid-derived carbon-centered radical was obtained in the anaerobic incubation system Fe2+/LOOH indicating the trapping of a lipid radical, possibly generated as a secondary reaction product of the primary lipid alkoxyl radical formed. Under aerobic conditions an SOD-insensitive oxygen-centered radical adduct was formed with DEPMPO and its lipophilic derivatives. The observed ESR parameters were similar to those of alkoxyl radical adducts, which were independently synthesized in model experiments using Fe3+-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of methanol or t-butanol to the respective spin trap. 相似文献

Free radical damage to proteins: the influence of the relative localization of radical generation, antioxidants, and target proteins 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Free radicals were generated at known rates in the aqueous phase (by means of 2,2'-azobis (2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride [AAPH]) and in a membranous (lipid) phase (by means of 2,2'-azobis (2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile [AMVN]). A soluble protein (bovine serum albumin: BSA), and membranes of lysed mitochondria containing radioactively labeled monoamine oxidase (MAO), were exposed to the resultant radical fluxes. Antioxidants were added to the system, either in the aqueous phase (Trolox) or in a liposomal membrane phase (alpha-tocopherol). Protein damage was assessed as tryptophan oxidation and conformational changes in tryptophan fluorescence of the soluble protein, BSA, and as fragmentation of both BSA and monoamine oxidase. Radicals generated in the aqueous phase, by AAPH, were effective in damaging BSA and MAO. Radicals generated within the liposome membrane phase (by AMVN) were less effective against BSA than those deriving from AAPH. Liposomal AMVN radicals could damage MAO, present in a separate membranous phase, though again, less effectively than could AAPH-derived radicals. BSA could be protected by Trolox, the aqueous soluble antioxidant, but hardly by tocopherol itself. Damage to MAO was limited by Trolox, and also by the hydrophobic antioxidant, tocopherol. Damaging reactions due to radicals generated in a membrane phase were significantly accelerated when the membrane was peroxidizable (soybean phosphatidylcholine) rather than nonperoxidizable (saturated dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine). Thus lipid radicals also played some role in protein damage in these systems. BSA was attacked similarly in the presence or absence of liposomes by AAPH. Correspondingly, BSA could inhibit the peroxidation of liposomes induced by AAPH and less efficiently that induced by AMVN.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Antioxidant properties of resveratrol and piceid on lipid peroxidation in micelles and monolamellar liposomes 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The antioxidant activities of trans-resveratrol (trans-3,5,4′-trihydroxystilbene) and trans-piceid (trans-5,4′-dihydroxystilbene-3-O-β-d-glucopyranoside), its more widespread glycosilate derivative, have been compared measuring their inhibitory action on peroxidation of linoleic acid (LA) and the radical scavenging ability towards different free radicals (such as DPPH) and radical initiators. It has been found that the two stilbenes have similar antioxidant capacity, while the comparison with BHT (2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol) and -tocopherol (vitamin E, vit. E), taken as reference, points out a slower but prolonged protective action against lipid peroxidation. Furthermore, piceid appears more efficacious than resveratrol as a consequence of the reaction of the latter with its radical form.
The DSC profiles of phosphatidylcholine liposomes of various chain lengths, and EPR measurements of spin labelled liposomes demonstrated that the susceptible hydroxyl group of these compounds are located in the lipid region of the bilayer close to the double bonds of polyunsatured fatty acids, making these stilbenes particularly suitable for the prevention and control of the lipid peroxidation of the membranes. 相似文献

Inhibition of oxidation of methyl linoleate in solution by vitamin E and vitamin C 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
The oxidation of methyl linoleate in solution initiated with azo compounds has been studied in the absence and presence of vitamin E and vitamin C. Both vitamin E and vitamin C acted as a chain-breaking antioxidant and they suppressed the oxidation and produced an induction period. The inhibition rate constant for the scavenging of peroxy radical was calculated at 37 degrees C as kinh = 5.1 X 10(5) M-1 s-1 and 7.5 X 10(4) M-1 s-1 for vitamin E and vitamin C, respectively. It was suggested that each vitamin E could trap two peroxy radicals, whereas vitamin C could trap only one peroxy radical under the reaction conditions employed in this study. When both vitamin E and vitamin C were present, the oxidation was suppressed quite efficiently and the apparent inhibition rate constant was obtained as kinh = 4.0 X 10(5) M-1 s-1. Furthermore, vitamin E remained almost unchanged and only vitamin C was consumed at the initial stage and vitamin E was consumed after vitamin C was exhausted. It was concluded that vitamin E trapped the peroxy radical and the resulting alpha-chromanoxy radical reacted with vitamin C to regenerate vitamin E. 相似文献

The spin trap 5-(diethoxyphosphoryl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DEPMPO) forms a superoxide adduct with a half-life of almost 15 min. DEPMPO is very hydrophilic and its use for the detection of radicals in the lipid phase (lipid-derived radicals and superoxide generated in the lipid phase) is therefore limited due to its very low concentration in the lipid phase. For the detection of lipid-derived radicals, three derivatives of DEPMPO with increasing degree of lipid solubility have been investigated: 5-(di-n-propoxyphosphoryl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DPPMPO), 5-(di-n-butoxyphosphoryl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DBPMPO), and 5-(bis-(2-ethylhexyloxy)phosphoryl)-5-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide (DEHPMPO). As compared with the spin trap DMPO, the half-lives of the respective superoxide adducts were clearly higher in aqueous solutions of the spin traps, which facilitates qualitative ESR measurements. The stability of the superoxide spin adducts formed with the various lipophilic spin traps in aqueous buffer were similar to those observed with DEPMPO (half-life: 7-11 min.). In model experiments using Fe(3+)-catalyzed nucleophilic addition of methanol or tert-butanol to the respective spin trap the respective alkoxyl radical adducts were formed in aqueous solution as transient species in the presence of high concentrations of the alcohol. Upon dilution with water the alkoxyl group was substituted by water, giving the respective hydroxyl adduct of the spin trap. Care must therefore be taken when Fenton-type reactions are used for the generation of radicals such as the use of Fe(2+) complexes with phosphate or DTPA or inactivation of iron by addition of "Desferal" (Novarti's Pharma GmbH, Vienna, Austria) after a short incubation time. Addition of Fe(2+) under anaerobic conditions to an aqueous suspension of linoleic acid hydroperoxide and the spin trap resulted in the detection of three different species: a carbon-centered radical adduct, an acyl radical adduct, and the hydroxyl adduct. In the presence of oxygen a different species was observed with DEPMPO, DPPMPO, and DBPMPO, which was only slightly suppressed upon the addition of SOD, possibly the respective spin adduct of either the alkylperoxyl radical or, in analogy to DMPO, a secondary alkoxyl radical. 相似文献

Electron-spin resonance-spin trapping has been used to detect lipid-derived radicals in liposomes. Using the lipid-soluble spin trap 2-methyl-nitrosopropane (MNP), we have detected both the lipid and hydrogen-atom spin adducts in liposomes composed of a fully saturated phospholipid (dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine, DMPC) with various mol fractions of unsaturated phospholipid (1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonoylphosphatidylcholine, PAPC) or fatty acid (arachidonic acid, AA). The lipid-derived spin adduct formed during autoxidation of liposomes was separated by thin-layer chromatography and found to co-migrate with the product(s) formed by direct addition of MNP to the corresponding unsaturated lipid or fatty acid. Both the MNP-PAPC and MNP-AA spin adducts showed some restriction of rotational motion when in the liposome bilayer (rotational correlation times 0.72 and 0.69.10(-9) s, respectively), and nitrogen hyperfine coupling constants (14.94-14.96 G) consistent with a hydrophobic localization. Radical versus non-radical mechanisms of spin adduct formation during liposome autoxidation were separated using alpha-tocopherol as a radical scavenger. The utility of nitroso spin traps in trapping of radicals in liposomes is discussed. 相似文献

We have used the spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-pyrroline-1-oxide (DMPO) and EPR to detect lipid-derived radicals (Ld*) during peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and cells (K-562 and MCF-7). All oxygen-centered radical adducts of DMPO from our oxidizable targets have short lifetimes (<20 min). We hypothesized that the short lifetimes of these spin adducts are due in part to their reaction with radicals formed during lipid peroxidation. We proposed that stopping the lipid peroxidation processes by separating oxidation-mediator from oxidation-substrate with an appropriate extraction would stabilize the spin adducts. To test this hypothesis we used ethyl acetate to extract the lipid-derived radical adducts of DMPO (DMPO/Ld*) from an oxidizing docosahexaenioc acid (DHA) solution; Folch extraction was used for LDL and cell experiments. The lifetimes of DMPO spin adducts post-extraction are much longer (>10 h) than the spin adducts detected without extraction. In iron-mediated DHA oxidation we observed three DMPO adducts in the aqueous phase and two in the organic phase. The aqueous phase contains DMPO/HO* aN approximately aH approximately 14.8 G) and two carbon-centered radical adducts (aN1 approximately 15.8 G, aH1 approximately 22.6 G; aN2 approximately 15.2 G, aH2 approximately 18.9 G). The organic phase contains two long-chain lipid radical adducts (aN approximately 13.5 G, aH approximately 10.2 G; and aN approximately 12.8 G; aH approximately 6.85 G, 1.9 G). We conclude that extraction significantly increases the lifetimes of the spin adducts, allowing detection of a variety of lipid-derived radicals by EPR. 相似文献

Resveratrol inhibition of lipid peroxidation 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
To define the molecular mechanism(s) of resveratrol inhibition of lipid peroxidation we have utilized model systems that allow us to study the different reactions involved in this complex process. Resveratrol proved (a) to inhibit more efficiently than either Trolox or ascorbate the Fe2+ catalyzed lipid hydroperoxide-dependent peroxidation of sonicated phosphatidylcholine liposomes; (b) to be less effective than Trolox in inhibiting lipid peroxidation initiated by the water soluble AAPH peroxyl radicals; (c) when exogenously added to liposomes, to be more potent than alpha-tocopherol and Trolox, in the inhibition of peroxidation initiated by the lipid soluble AMVN peroxyl radicals; (d) when incorporated within liposomes, to be a less potent chain-breaking antioxidant than alpha-tocopherol; (e) to be a weaker antiradical than alpha-tocopherol in the reduction of the stable radical DPPH*. Resveratrol reduced Fe3+ but its reduction rate was much slower than that observed in the presence of either ascorbate or Trolox. However, at the concentration inhibiting iron catalyzed lipid peroxidation, resveratrol did not significantly reduce Fe3+, contrary to ascorbate. In their complex, our data indicate that resveratrol inhibits lipid peroxidation mainly by scavenging lipid peroxyl radicals within the membrane, like alpha-tocopherol. Although it is less effective, its capacity of spontaneously entering the lipid environment confers on it great antioxidant potential. 相似文献

The lipophilic radical initiator (MeO-AMVN) and the fluorescent probe C11BODIPY581/591 (BODIPY) were used to measure the lipid compartment oxidizability of human plasma. Aqueous plasma oxidizability was initiated by the aqueous peroxyl radical generator, AAPH, and 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein (DCFH) was employed as the marker of the oxidative reaction. The distribution in aqueous and lipid compartments of the two radical initiators was determined by measuring the rate of consumption of the plasma hydrophilic and lipophilic endogenous antioxidants. In the presence of AAPH (20 mM), the order of consumption was: ascorbic acid > alpha-tocopherol > uric acid > beta-carotene, indicating a gradient of peroxyl radicals from the aqueous to the lipid phase. When MeO-AMVN was used (2mM), beta-carotene was consumed earlier than uric acid and almost at the same time as alpha-tocopherol, reflecting the diffusion and activation of MeO-AMVN in the lipophilic phase. The rate of BODIPY oxidation (increase in green fluorescence) significantly increased after the depletion of endogenous alpha-tocopherol and beta-carotene, whereas it was delayed for 180 min when AAPH was used instead of MeO-AMVN. The measurement of lipid oxidation in plasma was validated by adding to plasma the two lipophilic antioxidants, alpha-tocopherol and beta-carotene, whose inhibitory effects on BODIPY oxidation were dependent on the duration of the preincubation period and hence to their lipid diffusion. DCFH oxidation induced by AAPH only began after uric acid, the main hydrophilic plasma antioxidant, was consumed. In contrast, when MeO-AMVN was used, DCFH oxidation was delayed for 120 min, indicating its localization in the aqueous domain. In summary, the selective fluorescence method reported here is capable of distinguishing the lipophilic and hydrophilic components of the total antioxidant capacity of plasma. 相似文献

cis-Parinaric acid (PnA), cis-trans-trans-cis-9, 11, 13, 15-octadecatetraenoic acid, is fluorescent (epsilon = 74,000 at 324 nm) when partitioned into a lipid environment and the fluorescence is destroyed upon reaction with free radicals. It has been used to monitor semiquantitatively free-radical-induced lipid peroxidation in human erythrocyte membranes. We have applied this assay to the quantitative evaluation of potential antioxidants. The kinetics of the reaction of PnA with free radicals were measured in erythrocyte ghosts. After initiation of free radical generation by cumene hydroperoxide and cupric ion, a steady-state rate of fluorescence decay is rapidly established. In the steady state the oxidation of PnA and, hence, the loss of fluorescence is a first-order process. In the presence of antioxidants, such as vitamin E, the rate constant of fluorescence loss decreases, thereby indicating that the antioxidant decreases the steady-state concentration of free radicals. By adding various concentrations of potential antioxidants, pseudo-first-order rate constants [k1] which measure the reactivity of antioxidants with free radicals were determined. Results show that, when incorporated into erythrocyte membranes, U-78, 517f, a vitamin E analog, is a potent free radical scavenger, being approximately 50% as effective as vitamin E and 10-15 times more potent than the aminosteroids evaluated (see Table 1). 相似文献

The oxidative hemolysis of rabbit erythrocytes induced by free radicals and its inhibition by chain-breaking antioxidants have been studied. The free radicals were generated from either a water-soluble or a lipid-soluble azo compound which, upon its thermal decomposition, gave carbon radicals that reacted with oxygen immediately to give peroxyl radicals. The radicals generated in the aqueous phase from a water-soluble azo compound induced hemolysis in air, but little hemolysis was observed in the absence of oxygen. Water-soluble chain-breaking antioxidants, such as ascorbic acid, uric acid, and water-soluble chromanol, suppressed the hemolysis dose dependently. Vitamin E in the erythrocyte membranes was also effective in suppressing the hemolysis. 2,2,5,7,8-Pentamethyl-6-chromanol, a vitamin E analogue without phytyl side chain, incorporated into dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine liposomes, suppressed the above hemolysis, but alpha-tocopherol did not suppress the hemolysis. Soybean phosphatidylcholine liposomes also induced hemolysis, and a lipid-soluble azo initiator incorporated into the soybean phosphatidylcholine liposomes accelerated the hemolysis. The chain-breaking antioxidants incorporated into the liposomes were also effective in suppressing this hemolysis. 相似文献

The antioxidant behaviors of vitamin E and its analogues, 2, 2, 5, 7, 8-pentamethyl-6-hydroxychroman and l, 2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-2?-(hydroxyethyl)-2?, 5?, 7?, 8?-tetramethyl-6?-hydroxychro-man, were studied in unilamellar vesicles. The two analogues scavenged aqueous radicals generated from azo compounds more efficiently than vitamin E. On the other hand, vitamin E scavenged the lipid peroxyl radicals preferentially. It is concluded that the superior antioxidant activity of vitamin E is attributed to its location suitable for breaking the chain propagation reaction. 相似文献

Predicting the susceptibility of lipid moieties to radical attack requires a determination of the depth of radical penetration into a lipid membrane. We thus synthesized three homologous series of lipophilic spin traps--DMPO analogs 2-alkanoyl-2-methyl-1-pyrroline N-oxides (11) and PBN derivatives 4-alkoxyphenyl N-tert-butylnitrones (18) and 4-alkoxyphenyl N-admantylnitrones (20). The intercalation depth of these spin traps within the liposomal bilayer was determined via the previously reported NMR technique, which correlates the chemical shift and the micropolarity (measured in ET(30) units) experienced by the pivotal nitronyl carbon. Hydroxyl and alpha-hydroxyalkyl radicals were generated in the extraliposomal aqueous phase and the lowest depth at which a radical could be spin trapped was determined. The ESR data indicate that these radicals can exit the aqueous phase, penetrate the lipid bilayer past the head groups (ET(30)=63 kcal/mol) and the glycerol ester (ET(30)=52 kcal/mol), and pass down to an ET(30) polarity of at least 44 kcal/mol. The latter depth presumably corresponds to the upper portion of the lipid slab. It is likely, if not probable, that having come this far they can abstract the allylic/diallylic hydrogens resident in the midslab at ET(30) values of >31 kcal/mol. 相似文献

Radical-induced inactivation of kidney Na+,K(+)-ATPase: sensitivity to membrane lipid peroxidation and the protective effect of vitamin E 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The Na+,K(+)-ATPase is a membrane-bound, sulfhydryl-containing protein whose activity is critical to maintenance of cell viability. The susceptibility of the enzyme to radical-induced membrane lipid peroxidation was determined following incorporation of a purified Na+,K(+)-ATPase into soybean phosphatidylcholine liposomes. Treatment of liposomes with Fenton's reagent (Fe2+/H2O2) resulted in malondialdehyde formation and total loss of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. At 150 microM Fe2+/75 microM H2O2, vitamin E (5 mol%) totally prevented lipid peroxidation but not the loss of enzyme activity. Lipid peroxidation initiated by 25 microM Fe2+/12.5 microM H2O2 led to a loss of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity, however, vitamin E (1.2 mol%) prevented both malondialdehyde formation and loss of enzyme activity. In the absence of liposomes, there was complete loss of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in the presence of 150 microM Fe2+/75 microM H2O2, but little effect by 25 microM Fe2+/12.5 microM H2O2. The activity of the enzyme was also highly sensitive to radicals generated by the reaction of Fe2+ with cumene hydroperoxide, t-butylhydroperoxide, and linoleic acid hydroperoxide. Lipid peroxidation initiated by 150 microM Fe2+/150 microM Fe3+, an oxidant which may be generated by the Fenton's reaction, inactivated the enzyme. In this system, inhibition of malondialdehyde formation by vitamin E prevented loss of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. These data demonstrate the susceptibility of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase to radicals produced during lipid peroxidation and indicate that the ability of vitamin E to prevent loss of enzyme activity is highly dependent upon both the nature and the concentration of the initiating and propagating radical species. 相似文献
