Epidemiological reports demonstrate an association between increased human morbidity and mortality with exposure to air pollution particulate matter (PM). Metal-catalyzed oxidative stress has been postulated to contribute to lung injury in response to PM exposure. We studied the effects of residual oil fly ash (ROFA), a component of ambient air PM, on the formation of lung carbonyls that are indicators of lipid peroxidation. Rats were instilled intratracheally with ROFA (62.5–1000 μg) and underwent lung lavage. Lavage fluid carbonyls were derivatized with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine, and measured by high performance liquid chromatography with UV detection. Dose-dependent increases in a peak that eluted with the same retention time as the acetaldehyde (CH3CHO) derivative was observed in rats treated with ROFA 15 min after instillation (up to 25-fold greater than saline treated controls). The identification of CH3CHO was confirmed using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy. ROFA-induced increases in other lavage fluid carbonyls were not seen. Increased CH3CHO in lavage fluid was observed as late as 8 h later. No increase in CH3CHO was observed in plasma from ROFA-treated rats. An increased formation of CH3CHO was observed in a human airway epithelial cell line incubated with ROFA suggesting a pulmonary source of CH3CHO production. Instillation of solutions of metals (iron, vanadium, nickel) contained in ROFA, or instillation of another ROFA-type particle containing primarily iron, also induced a specific increase in CH3CHO. These data support the hypothesis that metals were involved in the increased CH3CHO formation. Thus metals on PM may mediate lung responses through induction of lipid peroxidation and carbonyl formation. 相似文献

The mechanism of tissue injury after exposure to air pollution particles is not known. The biological effect has been postulated to be mediated via an oxidative stress catalyzed by metals present in particulate matter (PM). We utilized a transgenic (Tg) mouse model that overexpresses extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) to test the hypothesis that lung injury after exposure to PM results from an oxidative stress in the lower respiratory tract. Wild-type (Wt) and Tg mice were intratracheally instilled with either saline or 50 microg of residual oil fly ash (ROFA). Twenty-four hours later, specimens were obtained and included bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and lung for both homogenization and light histopathology. After ROFA exposure, EC-SOD Tg mice showed a significant reduction in BAL total cell counts (composed primarily of neutrophils) and BAL total protein compared with Wt. EC-SOD animals also demonstrated diminished concentrations of inflammatory mediators in BAL. There was no statistically significant difference in BAL lipid peroxidation; however, EC-SOD mice had lower concentrations of oxidized glutathione in the BAL. We conclude that enhanced EC-SOD expression decreased both lung inflammation and damage after exposure to ROFA. This supports a participation of oxidative stress in the inflammatory injury after PM exposure rather than reflecting a response to metals alone. 相似文献

Epidemiology studies show association of morbidity and mortality with exposure to ambient air particulate matter (PM). Metals present in PM may catalyze oxidation of important lipids and proteins present in the lining of the respiratory tract. The present study investigated the PM-induced oxidation of human bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid (BALF) and synthetic lung epithelial lining fluid (sELF) through the measurement of oxygen incorporation and antioxidant depletion assays. Residual oil fly ash (ROFA), an emission source PM that contains approximately 10% by weight of soluble transition metals, was added (0-200 microg/ml) to BALF or sELF and exposed to 20% (18)O(2) (24 degrees C, 4 h). Oxygen incorporation was quantified as excess (18)O in the dried samples after incubation. BALF and diluted sELF yielded similar results. Oxygen incorporation was increased by ROFA addition and was enhanced by ascorbic acid (AA) and mixtures of AA and glutathione (GSH). AA depletion, but not depletion of GSH or uric acid, occurred in parallel with oxygen incorporation. AA became inhibitory to oxygen incorporation when it was present in high enough concentrations that it was not depleted by ROFA. Physiological and higher concentrations of catalase, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase had no effect on oxygen incorporation. Both protein and lipid were found to be targets for oxygen incorporation; however, lipid appeared to be necessary for protein oxygen incorporation to occur. Based on these findings, we predict that ROFA would initiate significant oxidation of lung lining fluids after in vivo exposure and that AA, GSH, and lipid concentrations of these fluids are important determinants of this oxidation. 相似文献

Role of metal-induced reactive oxygen species generation in lung responses caused by residual oil fly ash 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Inhalation of residual oil fly ash (ROFA) increases pulmonary morbidity in exposed workers. We examined the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in ROFA-induced lung injury. ROFA was collected from a precipitator at Boston Edison Co., Everett, MA, USA. ROFA (ROFA-total) was suspended in saline, incubated for 24 h at 37 degrees C, centrifuged, and separated into its soluble (ROFA-sol.) and insoluble (ROFA-insol.) fractions. Sprague-Dawley rats were intratracheally instilled with saline or ROFA-total or ROFA-sol. or ROFA-insol. (1 mg/100 g body wt.). Lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage cells were harvested at 4, 24, and 72 h after instillation. Chemiluminescence (CL) of recovered cells was measured as an index of ROS production, and tissue-lipid-peroxidation was assessed to determine oxidative injury. Significant amounts of Al, Fe, and Ni were present in ROFA-sol., whereas ROFA-insol. contained Fe, V, and Al. Using electron spin resonance (ESR), significantly more hydroxyl radicals were measured in ROFA-sol. as compared to ROFA-insol. None of the ROFA samples had an effect on CL or lipid peroxidation at 4 h. Treatment with ROFA-total and ROFA-insol. caused significant increases in both CL (at 24 h) and lipid peroxidation (at 24 and 72 h) when compared to saline control value. ROFA-sol. significantly reduced CL production at 72 h after treatment and had no effect on lipid peroxidation at any time point. In summary, ROFA, particularly its soluble fraction, generated a metal-dependent hydroxyl radical as measured by a cell-free ESR assay. However, cellular oxidant production and tissue injury were observed mostly with the ROFA-total and ROFA-insol. particulate forms. ROS generated by ROFA-sol. as measured by ESR appear not to play a major role in the lung injury caused after ROFA exposure. 相似文献

Residual oil fly ash (ROFA) is a particulate pollutant comprised of soluble and insoluble metals and is produced by the combustion of fossil fuels. The objective was to examine the pulmonary responses to chemically distinct ROFA samples collected from either a precipitator or air heater within the same power plant. The collected ROFA samples were suspended in saline (total sample), incubated for 24 h at 37 degrees C, centrifuged, separated into soluble and insoluble fractions, and the metal composition was determined. In addition, electron spin resonance (ESR) was used to detect short-lived free radical intermediates produced by the ROFA samples and the different fractions. On day 0, Male Sprague-Dawley rats were intratracheally instilled with saline (vehicle control) or the ROFA samples (1 mg/100 g body wt). At day 1, bronchoalveolar lavage was performed, and lung inflammation was assessed. On day 3, additional rats that had been treated with ROFA were intratracheally inoculated with 5 x 10(5) Listeria monocytogenes, and pulmonary bacterial clearance was measured at days 6, 8, and 10. The precipitator ROFA was found to be more soluble and acidic with a significantly greater mass of each metal compared with the air heater ROFA. A prominent hydroxyl radical signal was measured for the total and soluble precipitator ROFA after the addition of H2O2, whereas the air heater ROFA and its fractions did not produce a signal. Precipitator ROFA induced a greater inflammatory response than air heater ROFA illustrated by a significant elevation in lung neutrophils. In addition, pulmonary clearance of L. monocytogenes was greatly diminished in the rats treated with the soluble and total precipitator ROFA samples. None of the air heater ROFA samples had an effect on lung bacterial clearance. In conclusion, precipitator ROFA, particularly the soluble fraction, generated a metal-dependent hydroxyl radical as measured by ESR and was shown to cause more inflammation and result in reduced lung defense against infection compared with air heater ROFA. These results are most likely due to differences in metal composition and solubility of the ROFA samples. 相似文献

Cyclophosphamide causes lung injury in rats through its ability to generate free radicals with subsequent endothelial and epithelial cell damage. In order to observe the protective effects of a potent anti-inflammatory antioxidant, curcumin (diferuloyl methane) on cyclophosphamide-induced early lung injury, healthy pathogen free male Wistar rats were exposed to 20 mg/100 g body weight of cyclophosphamide, intraperitoneally as a single injection. Prior to cyclophosphamide intoxication oral administration of curcumin was performed daily for 7 days. At various time intervals (2, 3, 5 and 7 days post insult) serum and lung samples were analyzed for angiotensin converting enzyme, lipid peroxidation, reduced glutathione and ascorbic acid. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was analyzed for biochemical constituents. The lavage cells were examined for lipid peroxidation and glutathione content. Excised lungs were analyzed for antioxidant enzyme levels. Biochemical analyses revealed time course increases in lavage fluid total protein, albumin, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), lactate dehydrogenase, N-acetyl--D-glucosaminidase, alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, lipid peroxide levels and decreased levels of glutathione (GSH) and ascorbic acid 2, 3, 5 and 7 days after cyclophosphamide intoxication. Increased levels of lipid peroxidation and decreased levels of glutathione and ascorbic acid were seen in serum, lung tissue and lavage cells of cyclophosphamide groups. Serum angiotensin converting enzyme activity increased which coincided with the decrease in lung tissue levels. Activities of antioxidant enzymes were reduced with time in the lungs of cyclophosphamide groups. However, a significant reduction in lavage fluid biochemical constituents, lipid peroxidation products in serum, lung and lavage cells with concomitant increase in antioxidant defense mechanisms occurred in curcumin fed cyclophosphamide rats. Therefore, our results suggest that curcumin is effective in moderating the cyclophosphamide induced early lung injury and the oxidant-antioxidant imbalance was partly abolished by restoring the glutathione (GSH) with decreased levels of lipid peroxidation. 相似文献

Using the hypotransferrinemic (Hp) mouse model, we studied the effect of altered iron homeostasis on the defense of the lung against a catalytically active metal. The homozygotic (hpx/hpx) Hp mice had greatly diminished concentrations of both serum and lavage fluid transferrin relative to wild-type mice and heterozygotes. Fifty micrograms of a particle containing abundant concentrations of metals (a residual oil fly ash) was instilled into wild-type mice and heterozygotic and homozygotic Hp animals. There was an oxidative stress associated with particle exposure as manifested by decreased lavage fluid concentrations of ascorbate. However, rather than an increase in lung injury, diminished transferrin concentrations in homozygotic Hp mice were associated with decreased indexes of damage, including concentrations of relevant cytokines, inflammatory cell influx, lavage fluid protein, and lavage fluid lactate dehydrogenase. Comparable to other organs in the homozygotic Hp mouse, siderosis of the lung was evident, with elevated concentrations of lavage fluid and tissue iron. Consequent to these increased concentrations of iron, proteins to store and transport iron, ferritin, and lactoferrin, respectively, were increased when assayed by immunoprecipitation and immunohistochemistry. We conclude that the lack of transferrin in Hp mice did not predispose the animals to lung injury after exposure to a particle abundant in metals. Rather, these mice demonstrated a diminished injury that was associated with an increase in the metal storage and transport proteins. 相似文献

Adverse health effects of air pollution attributed mainly to airborne particulate matter have been well documented in the last couple of decades. Short term exposure, referring to a few hours exposure, to high ambient PM10 concentration is linked to increased hospitalization rates for cardiovascular events, typically 24 h after air pollution peaks. Particulate matter exposure is related to pulmonary and cardiovascular diseases, with increased oxidative stress and inflammatory status. Previously, we have demonstrated that repeated intratracheal instillation of PM10sum in BALB/c mice leads to respiratory tract inflammation, creating in lung a condition which could potentially evolve in a systemic toxic reaction. Additionally, plasma membrane and tissue lipids are easily affected by oxidative stress and directly correlated with inflammatory products. With this aim, in the present investigation using the same model, we analyzed the toxic potential of PM10sum exposure on lipid plasma membrane composition, lipid peroxidation and the mechanisms of cells protection in multiple organs such as lung, heart, liver and brain. Obtained results indicated that PM10 exposure led to lung lipid reshaping, in particular phospholipid and cholesterol content increases; concomitantly, the generation of oxidative stress caused lipid peroxidation. In liver we found significant changes in lipid content, mainly due to an increase of phosphatidylcholine, and in total fatty acid composition with a more pronounced level of docosahexaenoic acid; these changes were statistically correlated to lung molecular markers. Heart and brain were similarly affected; heart was significantly enriched in triglycerides in half of the PM10sum treated mice. These results demonstrated a direct involvement of PM10sum in affecting lipid metabolism and oxidative stress in peripheral tissues that might be related to the serious systemic air-pollution effects on human health. 相似文献

Detection of lipid peroxidation in lung and in bronchoalveolar lavage cells and fluid 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Inhalation of toxic materials such as asbestos, silica, 100% oxygen, ozone, or nitrogen dioxide may lead to an increased production of reactive oxygen metabolites which may initiate lipid peroxidation. Measurement of lipid peroxidation in cells and fluid obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), as well as in lung tissue, may aid in monitoring the development and extent of pulmonary damage after inhalation of a toxic substance. In this study, we employed a sensitive assay for detection of malondialdehyde (MDA), a breakdown product of lipid peroxidation. By separation of the adduct with thiobarbituric acid, using a reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatographic technique, we accurately and sensitively measured the content of MDA in BAL cells, lavage fluid, and lavaged lung tissue homogenates of rats. The amounts of sample required for detection of MDA were small enough possibly to be applied to use with human specimens; in addition, recovery of added MDA was acceptable with all types of samples. Inclusion of a metal chelator in the preparation of samples appeared necessary to prevent metal-catalyzed propagation of lipid peroxidation during the assay. Overall, the method described here using samples from rats may be applicable to detecting lipid peroxidation in BAL samples from humans. 相似文献

Exposure of phagocytic cells to asbestos in vitro results in an augmented production of reactive oxygen metabolites and increased peroxidation of lipids. The aim of this investigation was to assess the extent of lipid peroxidation both in cells and fluid obtained from bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), and in lungs of rats exposed to crocidolite asbestos or titanium dioxide (TiO2), a nonfibrous particulate control. In comparison to sham and TiO2-exposed rats, the BAL fluid and cells of crocidolite-exposed animals contained significantly elevated levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), a breakdown product of lipid peroxidation detected using high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). In contrast, no significant differences in MDA were detected in lavaged lung tissue from these animals. Inhalation of crocidolite caused an early inflammatory response characterized by elevated numbers of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and lymphocytes, as well as enhanced total protein in BAL. Pulmonary fibrosis and increased lung hydroxyproline also were observed after 20 days of exposure. Exposure to TiO2 did not cause inflammation, pulmonary fibrosis, or elevated amounts of hydroxyproline in the lung. Our results show that exposure to the fibrogenic and inflammatory mineral, crocidolite, results in an enhanced lipid peroxidation in BAL cells and fluid not observed after inhalation of the particulate TiO2. These novel observations suggest that MDA in BAL may be useful as a biomarker of exposure to inhaled asbestos or other oxidants. 相似文献

Macrophage-derived cytokines may provoke the inflammatory response in lung injury. Because macrophage influx is a prominent feature of the cellular inflammatory response accompanying the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia, we hypothesized that blocking macrophage influx would reduce overall cellular influx and oxidative damage. Newborn rats were exposed at birth to 95% O(2) or air for 1 wk, and hyperoxia-exposed pups were injected with anti-monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) or IgG control on days 3-5. MCP-1 was increased in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and in histological sections from the 95% O(2)-exposed, IgG-injected pups compared with air-exposed controls. At 1 wk, anti-MCP-1-treated pups had reduced leukocyte numbers, both macrophages and neutrophils, in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid compared with IgG-treated controls. Cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-1, the rat analog of IL-8, was not significantly decreased in lavage fluid but was reduced in lung cells in anti-MCP-1-treated pups. Tissue carbonyls, a measure of protein oxidation, were decreased in anti-MCP-1-treated pups. Anti-MCP-1 treatment prevented neutrophil influx and reduced protein oxidation in hyperoxia-exposed newborn rats. 相似文献

Exposure to ambient air pollution has been associated with adverse health effects including lung cancer. A recent epidemiology study has established that each 10 μg/m3 elevation in long-term exposure to average PM2.5 ambient concentration was associated with approximately 8% of lung cancer mortality. The underlying mechanisms of how PM contributes to lung carcinogenesis, however, remain to be elucidated. We have recently found that transition metals such as nickel and chromium and oxidative stress induced lipid peroxidation metabolites such as aldehydes can greatly inhibit nucleotide excision repair (NER) and enhance carcinogen-induced mutations. Because PM is rich in metal and aldehyde content and can induce oxidative stress, we tested the effect of PM on DNA repair capacity in cultured human lung cells using in vitro DNA repair synthesis and host cell reactivation assays. We found that PM greatly inhibits NER for ultraviolet (UV) light and benzo(a)pyrene diol epoxide (BPDE) induced DNA damage in human lung cells. We further demonstrated that PM exposure can significantly increase both spontaneous and UV-induced mutagenesis. These results together suggest that the carcinogenicity of PM may act through its combined effect on suppression of DNA repair and enhancement of DNA replication errors. 相似文献

Curcumin ameliorates oxidative stress during nicotine-induced lung toxicity in Wistar rats 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Nicotine, a major toxic component of cigarette smoke has been identified as a major risk factor for lung related diseases. In the present study, we evaluated the protective effects of curcumin on lipid peroxidation and antioxidants status in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) of nicotine treated Wistar rats. Lung toxicity was induced by subcutaneous injection of nicotine at a dose of 2.5 mg/kg body weight (5 days a week, for 22 weeks) and curcumin (80 mg/kg body weight) was given simultaneously by intragastric intubation for 22 weeks. Measurement of biochemical marker enzymes: alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, lipid peroxidation and antioxidants were used to monitor the antiperoxidative effects of curcumin. The increased biochemical marker enzymes as well as lipid peroxides in BALF and BAL of nicotine treated rats was accompanied by a significant decrease in the levels of glutathione, glutathione peroxidase, superoxide dismutase and catalase. Administration of curcumin significantly lowered the biochemical marker enzymes, lipid peroxidation and enhanced the antioxidant status. The results of the present study suggest that curcumin exert its protective effect against nicotine-induced lung toxicity by modulating the biochemical marker enzymes, lipid peroxidation and augmenting antioxidant defense system. 相似文献

When rat liver microsomes were incubated with NADPH, the major products were hydroperoxides which increased with time indicating that endogenous iron content is able to promote lipid peroxidation. The addition of either 5 microM Fe2+ or Fe3+ ions strongly enhanced the hydroperoxide formation rate. However, due to the hydroperoxide breakdown, hydroperoxide concentration decreased with time in this case. Higher ferrous or ferric iron concentration did not change the situation much, in that both hydroperoxide breakdown and formation were similar to those when NADPH only was present in the incubation medium. After lipid peroxidation, analysis of fatty acids indicated that the highest amount of peroxidized PUFA occurred in the presence of 5 microM of either Fe2+ or Fe3+. This analysis also showed that after 8 min incubation with low iron concentration, PUFA depletion was about 77% of that observed after 20 min, whereas without any iron addition or in the presence of 30 microM of either Fe3+, PUFA decrease was only about 37% of that observed after 20 min. As far as the optimum Fe2+/Fe3+ ratio required to promote the initiation of microsomal lipid peroxidation in rat liver is concerned, the highest hydroperoxide formation was observed with a ratio ranging from 0.5 to 2. These results indicate that microsomal lipid peroxidation induced by endogenous iron is speeded up by the addition of low concentrations of either Fe2+ or Fe3+ ions, probably because free radicals generated by hydroperoxide breakdown catalyze the propagation process. In experimental conditions unfavourable to hydroperoxide breakdown the principal process is that of the initiation of lipid peroxidation. 相似文献

We have shown previously that ischemia results in reactive oxygen species production by lung endothelium that occurs within 3-5 s after flow cessation and is followed by lipid peroxidation at 15-30 min as determined by assay of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances, conjugated dienes, and protein carbonyls in lung homogenate. The present study evaluated membrane lipid peroxidation in isolated, ventilated rat lungs using a fluorescence imaging method that permits continuous observation of pulmonary subpleural microvascular endothelial cells in situ. Diphenyl-1-pyrenylphosphine (DPPP), a fluorescent probe which localizes in the plasma membrane and shows increased fluorescence emission after its oxidation by lipid hydroperoxides, was used for detection of membrane lipid peroxidation. Compared to continuously perfused control lungs, endothelial cell DPPP fluorescence increased significantly within 1 min of ischemia (i.e., flow cessation); these changes were prevented by pretreatment with 0.5 mM alpha-tocopherol succinate (vitamin E) added to the perfusate. Increased DPPP fluorescence was confirmed by spectrofluorometry of lipid extracts of lung homogenates. These data indicate that DPPP can be used for the real-time detection of lipid peroxidation in an intact organ. Ischemia results in peroxidation of the pulmonary microvascular endothelial cell membrane and this insult can be detected as early as 1 min after the onset of ischemia compatible with a radical-mediated process. 相似文献

The involvement of iron in lipid peroxidation. Importance of ferric to ferrous ratios in initiation 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Intense lipid peroxidation of brain synaptosomes initiated with Fenton's reagent (H2O2 + Fe2+) began instantly upon addition of Fe2+ and preceded detectable OH. formation. Although mannitol or Tris partially blocked peroxidation, concentrations required were 10(3)-fold in excess of OH. actually formed, and inhibition by Tris was pH dependent. Lipid peroxidation also was initiated by either Fe2+ or Fe3+ alone, although significant lag phases (minutes) and slowed reaction rates were observed. Lag phases were dramatically reduced or nearly eliminated, and reaction rates were increased by a combination of Fe3+ and Fe2+. In this instance, lipid peroxidation initiated by optimal concentrations of H2O2 and Fe2+ could be mimicked or even surpassed by providing optimal ratios of Fe3+ to Fe2+. Peroxidation observed with Fe3+ alone was dependent upon trace amounts of contaminating Fe2+ in Fe3+ preparations. Optimal ratios of Fe3+:Fe2+ for the rapid initiation of lipid peroxidation were on order of 1:1 to 7:1. No OH. formation could be detected with this system. Although low concentrations of H2O2 or ascorbate increased lipid peroxidation by Fe2+ or Fe3+, respectively, high concentrations of H2O2 or ascorbate (in excess of iron) inhibited lipid peroxidation due to oxidative or reductive maintenance of iron exclusively in Fe2+ or Fe3+ form. Stimulation of lipid peroxidation by low concentrations of H2O2 or ascorbate was due to the oxidative or reductive creation of Fe3+:Fe2+ ratios. The data suggest that the absolute ratio of Fe3+ to Fe2+ was the primary determining factor for the initiation of lipid peroxidation reactions. 相似文献

Lipid and DNA oxidation catalyzed by iron(II) were compared in HEPES and phosphate buffers. Lipid peroxidation was examined in a sensitive liposome system constructed with a fluorescent probe that allowed us to examine the effects of both low and high iron concentrations. With liposomes made from synthetic 1-stearoyl-2-linoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine or from rat liver microsomal lipid, lipid peroxidation increased with iron concentration up to the range of 10--20 microM iron(II), but then rates decreased with further increases in iron concentration. This may be due to the limited amount of lipid peroxides available in liposomes for oxidation of iron(II) to generate equimolar iron(III), which is thought to be important for the initation of lipid peroxidation. Addition of hydrogen peroxide to incubations with 1--10 microM iron(II) decreased rates of lipid peroxidation, whereas addition of hydrogen peroxide to incubations with higher iron concentrations increased rates of lipid peroxidation. Thus, in this liposome system, sufficient peroxide from either within the lipid or from exogenous sources must be present to generate equimolar iron(II) and iron(III). With iron-catalyzed DNA oxidation, hydrogen peroxide always stimulated product formation. Phosphate buffer, which chelates iron but still allows for generation of hydroxyl radicals, inhibited lipid peroxidation but not DNA oxidation. HEPES buffer, which scavenges hydroxyl radicals, inhibited DNA oxidation, whereas lipid peroxidation was unaffected since presumably iron(II) and iron(III) were still available for reaction with liposomes in HEPES buffer. 相似文献

Spin-trapping of free radicals formed during in vitro and in vivo metabolism of 3-methylindole 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Electron spin resonance spin-trapping techniques were used to investigate the in vitro and in vivo formation of free radicals during 3-methylindole (3MI) metabolism by goat lung. Utilizing the spin trap phenyl-t-butylnitrone, a nitrogen-centered free radical was detected 3 min after the addition of 3MI to an in vitro incubation system containing goat lung microsomes in the presence of NADPH and O2. The spectrum of the spin adduct was identical to that observed when 3MI was irradiated with ultraviolet light. A carbon-centered radical was also observed which increased in concentration with increasing incubation time. Microsomal incubations containing ferrous sulfate in the absence of 3MI to initiate lipid peroxidation produced the same carbon-centered free radical as obtained by spin-trapping. Malondialdehyde, and end product of lipid peroxidation, was also found to increase in concentration with increasing incubation time of 3MI. The concept that 3MI causes lipid peroxidation in the lung was supported by the in vivo study in which a carbon-centered radical was spin-trapped by phenyl-t-butylnitrone in lungs of intact goats infused with 3MI. This carbon-centered radical had hyperfine splitting constants identical to those carbon-centered free radicals trapped in in vitro incubations of 3MI. These data demonstrate that microsomal metabolism of 3MI produces a nitrogen-centered radical from 3MI which initiates lipid peroxidation in vitro and in vivo causing the formation of carbon-centered radicals from microsomal membranes. 相似文献

Lipid peroxidation associated protein damage in rat brain crude synaptosomal fraction mediated by iron and ascorbate 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
In crude synaptosomal fractions from rat brain exposed to iron and ascorbate, enhanced lipid peroxidation (more than 3-fold compared to control), loss of protein thiols up to the extent of 40% compared to control, increased incorporation of carbonyl groups into proteins (more than 4.5-fold compared to control) and non-disulphide covalent cross-linking of membrane proteins have been observed. The phenomena are not inhibited by catalase or hydroxyl radical scavengers like mannitol or dimethyl sulphoxide. However, chain breaking antioxidants like alpha-tocopherol and butylated hydroxytoluene prevent both lipid peroxidation and accompanying protein oxidation. It is suggested that in this system lipid peroxidation propagated by the decomposition of preformed lipid hydroperoxides by iron and ascorbate is the primary event and products of the peroxidation process cause secondary protein damage. In view of high ascorbate content of brain and availability of several transition metals, such ascorbate mediated oxidative damage may be relevant in the aetiopathogenesis of several neurodegenerative disorders as well as ageing of brain. 相似文献

Divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) is the major iron transporter responsible for duodenal dietary iron absorption and is required for erythropoiesis. Recent studies suggest that loss of DMT1 activity could be involved in metal-related lung injury, but little is known about the effects of iron status and DMT1 function on pulmonary inflammation. To better define the role of DMT1 and iron status in pulmonary inflammatory responses, we performed bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) following intratracheal instillation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to the Belgrade rat, an animal model deficient in DMT1 function. In the basal state, the BAL fluid of Belgrade rats had more macrophages and higher lactate dehydrogenase, myeloperoxidase, albumin, and hemoglobin levels compared with heterozygote control rats. Following LPS instillation, the macrophage fraction relative to total BAL cell content and levels of albumin and IgM were increased in Belgrade rats compared with controls. In contrast, heterozygote Belgrade rats made anemic by diet-induced iron deficiency exhibited attenuated inflammatory responses to LPS. These combined results show that pulmonary inflammation can be modified by both DMT1 and iron status. Loss of DMT1 alters pulmonary responses necessary for lung homeostasis in the basal state and enhances LPS-induced inflammation and therefore would contribute to progression of lung injury. 相似文献
