The role of lipid peroxidation in liver damage 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The consequences of the peroxidative breakdown of membrane lipids have been considered in relation to both the subcellular and tissue aspects of liver injury. Mitochondrial functions can be impaired by lipid peroxidation probably through the oxidation of pyridine nucleotides and the consequent alteration in the uptake of calcium. Several enzymatic functions of the endoplasmic reticulum are also affected as a consequence of peroxidative events and among these are the activities of glucose 6-phosphatase, cytochrome P-450 and the calcium sequestration capacity. Moreover, a release of hydrolytic enzymes from lysosomes and a decrease in the fluidity of plasma membranes can contribute to the liver damage consequent to the stimulation of lipid peroxidation. Extensive studies carried out in vivo and integrated with the use of isolated hepatocytes have shown that lipid peroxidation impairs lipoprotein secretion mainly at the level of the dismission from the Golgi apparatus, rather than during their assembly. However, such an alteration appears to give a late and not essential contribution to the fat accumulation. A more critical role is played by peroxidative reactions in the pathogenesis of acute liver necrosis induced by several pro-oxidant compounds as indicated by the protective effects against hepatocyte damage exerted by antioxidants. In addition, even in the cases where lipid peroxidation has been shown not to be essential in causing cell death there is evidence that it can still act synergistically with other damaging mechanisms in the amplification of liver injury. 相似文献

Liver microsomal lipid peroxidation has been observed in fatal human CCl(4) poisoning, in rats with fatty livers induced by CCl(4) or by yellow phosphorus, and in mice poisoned with 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane. These observations suggest the possibility that other instances of toxic liver injury may involve lipid peroxidation. Cases of acute, fatal, toxic liver injury (e.g., from halothane anesthesia) are not likely to occur at or near laboratories equipped to determine whether any lipid peroxidation might have taken place. The data presented indicate that rat livers may be stored frozen for at least 7 days with no demonstrable diminution in CCl(4)-induced conjugated diene absorption of liver microsomal lipids. 相似文献

Alterations in liver mitochondria as consequence of rat poisoning with carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) have been reported over many years, but the mechanisms responsible for causing such damage are still largely unknown. Isolated rat liver mitochondria incubated under hypoxic conditions with succinate and ADP were found able to activate CCl4 to a free-radical species identified as trichloromethyl free radical (CCl3) by e.s.r. spectroscopy coupled with the spin-trapping technique. The incubation of mitochondria in air decreased free-radical production, indicating that a reductive reaction was involved in the activation of CCl4. However, in contrast with liver microsomes (microsomal fractions), mitochondria did not require the presence of NADPH, and the process was not significantly influenced by inhibitors of cytochrome P-450. The addition of inhibitors of the respiratory chain such as antimycin A and KCN decreased free-radical formation by only 30%, whereas rotenone displayed a greater effect (approx. 84% inhibition), but only when preincubated for 15 min with mitochondria not supplemented with succinate. These findings suggest that the mitochondrial electron-transport chain is responsible for the activation of CCl4. A conjugated-diene band was observed in the lipids extracted from mitochondria incubated with CCl4 under anaerobic conditions, indicating that stimulation of lipid peroxidation was occurring as a result of the formation of free-radical species. 相似文献

Plants and animals that can survive dehydration accumulate high concentrations of disaccharides in their cells and tissues during desiccation. These sugars are necessary both for the depression of the membrane phase transition temperature of the dry lipid and for the formation of a carbohydrate glass. In the past decade, however, it has become clear that certain types of adventitious enzymatic reactions are possible at low water contents, which along with free-radical mediated damage, can cause hydrolysis of lipids and loss of membrane barrier function. Disaccharides do not necessarily prevent these types of reactions, which suggests that other compounds might also be necessary for protecting organisms from this type of degradation during anhydrobiosis. Arbutin, one possible example, accumulates in large quantities in certain resurrection plants and has been shown to inhibit phospholipase A(2) activity at low water contents. The direct effect of arbutin on membranes under stress conditions depends on the membrane lipid composition. It can serve a protective function during desiccation- or freeze/thaw-induced stress in the presence of nonbilayer-forming lipids or a disruptive function in their absence. Other possible amphiphiles, including certain naturally occurring flavonols, may serve as anti-oxidants and some might have similar lipid composition-dependent effects. Such compounds, therefore, are likely to be localized near specific membranes, where they might provide the greatest benefit at the least liability to the organism. 相似文献

Glycation reactions, such as those seen in late diabetes, can be mimicked in purely chemical systems. The glycation is time-dependent, and in in vitro systems it can continue for days. Ascorbate seems to enhance the reactions. The reactions are associated with free-radical formation through transformation of an Amadori product to (deoxy-)glycoson, catalysed by heavy metals. Ascorbate enhances the reaction by a factor of 5-10 compared with in vitro systems without ascorbate. In vitro systems containing bovine serum albumin retard the formation of free-radicals, because of the formation of advanced glycation products. 相似文献

1. The metabolic activation of carbon tetrachloride to free-radical intermediates is an important step in the sequence of disturbances leading to the acute liver injury produced by this toxic agent. Electron-spin-resonance (e.s.r.) spin-trapping techniques were used to characterize the free-radical species involved. 2. Spin trapping was applied to the activation of carbon tetrachloride by liver microsomal fractions in the presence of NADPH, and by isolated intact rat hepatocytes. The results obtained with the spin trap N-benzylidene-2-methylpropylamine N-oxide ('phenyl t-butyl nitrone') (PBN) and [13C]carbon tetrachloride provide unequivocal evidence for the formation and trapping of the trichloromethyl free radical in these systems. 3. With the spin trap 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane, however, the major free-radical species trapped are unsaturated lipid radicals produced by the initiating reaction of lipid peroxidation. 4. Although pulse radiolysis and other evidence support the very rapid formation of the trichloromethyl peroxy radical from the trichloromethyl radical and oxygen, no clear evidence for the trapping of the peroxy radical was obtainable. 5. The effects of a number of free-radical scavengers and metabolic inhibitors on the formation of the PBN-trichloromethyl radical adduct were studied, as were the influences of changing the concentration of PBN and incubation time. 6. High concentrations of the spin traps used were found to have significant effects on cytochrome P-450-mediated reactions; this requires caution in interpreting results of experiments done in the presence of PBN at concentrations greater than 50 mM. 相似文献

NADPH-supported lipid peroxidation monitored by malondialdehyde (MDA) production in the presence of ferric pyrophosphate in liver microsomes was inactivated by heat treatment or by trypsin and the activity was not restored by the addition of purified NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (FPT). The activity was differentially solubilized by sodium cholate from microsomes, and the fraction solubilized between 0.4 and 1.2% sodium cholate was applied to a Sephadex G-150 column and subfractionated into three pools, A, B, and C. MDA production was reconstituted by the addition of microsomal lipids and FPT to specific fractions from the column, in the presence of ferric pyrophosphate and NADPH. Pool B, after removal of endogenous FPT, was highly active in catalyzing MDA production and the disappearance of arachidonate and docosahexaenoate, and this activity was abolished by heat treatment and trypsin digestion, but not by carbon monoxide. The rate of NADPH-supported lipid peroxidation in the reconstituted system containing fractions pooled from Sephadex G-150 columns was not related to the content of cytochrome P450. p-Bromophenylacylbromide, a phospholipase A2 inhibitor, inhibited NADPH-supported lipid peroxidation in both liver microsomes and the reconstituted system, but did not block the peroxidation of microsomal lipid promoted by iron-ascorbate or ABAP systems. Another phospholipase A2 inhibitor, mepacrine, poorly inhibited both microsomal and pool-B'-promoted lipid peroxidation, but did block both iron-ascorbate-driven and ABAP-promoted lipid peroxidation. The phospholipase A2 inhibitor chlorpromazine, which can serve as a free radical quencher, blocked lipid peroxidation in all systems. The data presented are consistent with the existence of a heat-labile protein-containing factor in liver microsomes which promotes lipid peroxidation and is not FPT, cytochrome P450, or phospholipase A2. 相似文献

An overview of a series of experiments attempting to link iron and calcium redistribution and release of free fatty acids with falls in pH and adenine nucleotide levels during cold storage of rabbit kidneys is presented. The data reviewed strongly suggest that these events are inextricably linked to subsequent reperfusion injury. Circumstantial evidence incriminating iron was provided by experiments showing that iron chelation decreased reperfusion injury after warm (WI) and cold ischaemia (CI) in rat skin flap and rabbit kidney models. Evidence for a role for calcium was provided when it was found that a calcium channel blocking agent added to the saline flush solution before storage inhibited lipid peroxidation, whereas chemicals which caused release or influx of calcium into the cell exacerbated oxidative damage. Additional involvement of breakdown products of adenine nucleotides was suggested by the protection from lipid peroxidation afforded by allopurinol. Involvement of calcium-activated phospholipase A, was strongly suggested by increases In free fatty acids during cold storage and both this increase and lipid peroxidation were inhibited by addition of dibucaine to the storage solution. 相似文献

Radiation-induced damage to the reconstituted system of membrane-bound enzyme, D-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase obtained from rat liver mitochondria, was investigated in relation to the lipid peroxidation of membranes. The activity of D-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase in fresh mitochondria was very low in general and was not affected by irradiation because of little incorporation of substrates into mitochondria. However, the enzyme activity in one-day-aged mitochondria or submitochondrial particles was five times higher than that of fresh mitochondria and decreased with increasing radiation dose accompanying the increase in peroxidation of membrane lipids. The activity of D-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase in the reconstituted system of the purified enzyme with irradiated liver microsomes or irradiated liposomes was decreased considerably in comparison with either unirradiated control or irradiated enzyme. Therefore, the radiation-induced decrease in the enzyme activity was thought to be caused mainly by peroxidation of membrane lipids and not to be due to direct damage by radiation to the enzyme molecule itself. Irradiation of microsomes, a component of the reconstituted system, caused decreases in phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine content and an increase in lysophosphatidylcholine content. In addition, arachidonic acid contents in phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylethanolamine were also markedly decreased with increasing radiation dose. These results are discussed in terms of a mechanism involving radiation-induced damage to membrane function and structures. 相似文献

Although it is well established that symptomatology, morbidity and death following scorpion envenomation are due to increases in neurotransmitter release secondary to toxins binding to voltage-sensitive sodium channels, the mechanism by which venom action is involved in damaging heart, liver, lungs and kidneys remains unclear. We hypothesized that scorpion toxins could induce the generation of high levels of free radicals responsible for membrane damage in organs targeted by venom action. We have investigated lipid peroxidation in different organs, through the evaluation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), after experimental envenomation of rats by toxic fractions of Androctonus australis Hector venom. We have shown that scorpion toxins cause considerable lipid peroxidation in most vital organs. We also evaluated the protective effects of antioxidants in mice injected with lethal doses of toxins. Among the drugs tested, N-acetylcysteine (NAC) was effective in protecting the mice when injected prior to toxin application. However, the free radical scavenging properties of NAC seem less implicated in these protective effects than its ability to increase the fluidity of bronchial secretions. We therefore conclude that free radical generation only plays a minor role in the toxicity of scorpion venom. 相似文献

We showed previously that thiol-containing compounds inhibited the production of macrophage-mediated angiogenic activity. Since thiol-containing compounds may act on macrophages by affecting activation and inhibiting the production of oxygen free-radicals, we studied the effects of oxygen free-radical scavengers on production of angiogenic activity by elicited mouse peritoneal macrophages and lipopolysaccharide stimulated normal human monocytes. Monocyte/macrophage conditioned media were potently angiogenic when assayed in rat corneas, while conditioned media, from oxygen free-radical scavenger-treated cells were not. The inhibitory effect of oxygen free-radical scavengers was due to a direct effect on monocyte/macrophage production of angiogenic activity but was not due solely to a decrease in the production of the macrophage-derived angiogenic cytokine tumor necrosis factor-alpha. We conclude that oxygen free-radical scavengers are potent inhibitors of the production of macrophage-mediated angiogenic activity. 相似文献

miR‐122 and miR‐192 were investigated as indicators of toxic liver injury caused by acetaminophen, but their role in idiosyncratic toxic liver injury remains controversial. So, this work aimed to assess and compare the expressions of miR‐122 and miR‐192 in two different types of toxic liver injury (intrinsic [acetaminophen] and idiosyncratic [diclofenac]). Forty male adult Wistar albino rats were divided into equal five groups, in which serum liver enzymes; microRNAs (miRNAs) expressions (miR‐122 and miR‐192) and histopathological findings were studied. The present study showed that (1) miR‐122 and miR‐192 are good serum biomarkers of toxic liver injury whatever its etiology, as their serum levels exhibited a significantly earlier increase and earlier return to normal baseline levels as compared to serum aminotransferase levels; (2) miR‐122 is more specific than miR‐192; and (3) both serum levels of miR‐122 and miR‐192 showed non‐significant differences in relation to the type of toxic liver injury. 相似文献

Elevation of the content of lipid peroxidation (LPO) products in blood serum of patients with acute virus hepatitis (VH) is caused by an increase in the patients' blood serum lipids rather than by the intensity of peroxide reactions in lipids. There is a reverse correlation between the content of LPO products and bilirubin level and a direct correlation between lipid antioxidant activity (AOA) and bilirubin level. Marked antioxidant action of bilirubin that compares very favourably with the action of ionol (4-methyl-2,6-ditretbutylphenol) was demonstrated in the model of oxidation of methyl oleate. It was shown that the rise of lipid AOA during VH might be completely attributed to the antioxidant properties of bilirubin. It is suggested that elevation of bilirubin level and associated increase of lipid AOA during VH can be viewed as a reaction aimed at a decrease of the level of toxic products of LPO and intensification of reparative processes in the liver. 相似文献

The susceptibility of partially peroxidized liposomes of 2-[1-14C] linoleoylphosphatidylethanolamine ([14C]PE) to hydrolysis by cellular phospholipases was examined. [14C]PE was peroxidized by exposure to air at 37 degrees C, resulting in the formation of more polar derivatives, as determined by thin-layer chromatographic analysis. Hydrolysis of these partially peroxidized liposomes by lysosomal phospholipase C associated with cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum, and by rat liver lysosomal phospholipase C, was greater than hydrolysis of non-peroxidized liposomes. By contrast, hydrolysis of liposomes by purified human synovial fluid phospholipase A2 or bacterial phospholipase C was almost completely inhibited by partial peroxidation of PE. Lysosomal phospholipase C preferentially hydrolyzed the peroxidized component of the lipid substrate which had accumulated during autoxidation. The major product recovered under these conditions was 2-monoacylglycerol, indicating sequential degradation by phospholipase C and diacylglycerol lipase. Liposomes peroxidized at pH 7.0 were more susceptible to hydrolysis by lysosomal phospholipases C than were liposomes peroxidized at pH 5.0, in spite of greater production of polar lipid after peroxidation at pH 5.0. Sodium bisulfite, an antioxidant and an inhibitor of lysosomal phospholipases, prevented: (1) lipid autoxidation, (2) hydrolysis of both non-peroxidized and peroxidized liposomes by sarcoplasmic reticulum and (3) loss of lipid phosphorus from endogenous lipids when sarcoplasmic reticulum was incubated at pH 5.0. These studies show that lipid peroxidation may modulate the susceptibility of phospholipid to attack by specific phospholipases, and may therefore be an important determinant in membrane dysfunction during injury. Preservation of membrane structural and functional integrity by antioxidants may result from inhibition of lipid peroxidation, which in turn may modulate cellular phospholipase activity. 相似文献

Chlorpromazine, mepacrine, tetracaine, dibucaine, chloroquine, and procaine have been shown to inhibit the iron- and ascorbate-induced lipid peroxidation of skeletal-muscle hornogenates in vitro. These compounds are known to be inhibitors of phospholipase activity, but they were also found to be effective in blocking free-radical-mediated damage to lipids in denatured homogenates, to linoleate suspensions, and to glutamic acid solutions where phospholipase activity was not a relevant factor. The inhibitory action did not appear to be related to any iron-binding activity of the compounds. 相似文献

Numerous studies have shown that the lifespan can be extended by caloric restriction or by altering the growth hormone (GH)-insulin-like growth factor 1 signaling pathway. Both of these manipulations produce physiological alterations, such as increased insulin sensitivity, and reduced glucose levels and body size. However, it is difficult to evaluate whether these are merely correlates of delayed aging or whether they have a direct causal effect on lifespan. One parameter that has been demonstrated to have causal, positive effects on longevity in invertebrates is improved antioxidant defenses. We measured activities of antioxidant enzymes Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and quantified free-radical damage by lipid peroxidation (LP) and protein oxidation (PO) measurements in liver and kidney tissues, and evaluated the response to paraquat-induced oxygen toxicity in the long-living GH receptor/binding protein gene knockout (GHR-KO) mouse. We found that in the kidney, SOD was lower and GPx was higher in GHR-KO mice, and LP was higher in female GHR-KO mice only. In the liver, female GHR-KO mice had lower GPx, while male GHR-KO mice had lower CAT and higher LP. GHR-KO males were also more susceptible to paraquat toxicity compared to females or normal males. We conclude that in long-living GHR-KO mice, GH-resistance does not confer longevity by improved free-radical scavenging in the liver and kidney, suggesting that greater free-radical defenses in other tissues, or altered glucose metabolism may have a more central role in extending the lifespan of these animals. 相似文献

Mitochondria are the main organelles that produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). Overproduction of ROS induces oxidative damage to macromolecules, including lipids, and can damage cellular membrane structure and functions. Mitochondria, the main target of ROS-induced damage, are equipped with a network of antioxidants that control ROS production. Dietary intake of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω3PUFAs) and consequently the increase in ω3PUFA content of membrane lipids may be disadvantageous to the health because ROS-induced oxidative peroxidation of ω3PUFAs within membrane phospholipids can lead to the formation of toxic products. Mitochondrial control of lipid peroxidation is one of the mechanisms that protect cell against oxidative damage. This review discusses the role of mitochondria in ROS generation and the mechanisms by which it regulates ROS production. The susceptibility to peroxidation of PUFAs by ROS raises the question of the adverse effects of ω3PUFA dietary supplementation on embryonic development and prenatal developmental outcomes. 相似文献

Idiosyncratic drug reactions represent a major problem. In most cases the mechanisms of these reactions are unknown, but circumstantial evidence points to the involvement of reactive metabolites and the characteristics of the reactions suggest involvement of the immune system. If progress is to be made in dealing with these adverse reactions it is essential that we have a better understanding of their mechanisms, and it is hard to imagine testing mechanistic hypotheses without good animal models. Unfortunately, idiosyncratic reactions are also idiosyncratic in animals so few good models exist. The best models, in which a rodent develops a clinical syndrome similar to that which occurs in humans, appear to be penicillamine-induced autoimmunity in Brown Norway rats and nevirapine-induced skin rash in rats. Sulfamethoxazole-induced hypersensitivity in dogs and propylthiouracil-induced autoimmunity in cats are also similar to adverse reactions that occur in people, but they have practical limitations. Halothane-induced liver toxicity in guinea pigs and amodiaquine-induced bone marrow and liver toxicity in rats represent models in which there is an immune response and mild, reversible toxicity. It is possible that the development of immune tolerance is what limits the toxicity in these models, and if this is true, interventions that prevent tolerance might lead to good models. Although the history of developing animal models of idiosyncratic drug reactions is mostly one of failure, such models are essential. A better understanding of immune tolerance may greatly facilitate the development of better models; transgenic technology may also provide an important tool. 相似文献

Dynamics of changes in the processes of the lipids free-radical peroxide oxidation (LPO), state of the monooxygenase system (MOS) and system of anti-oxidant protection (SAOP) in the liver and blood of rats under multiple peroral and inhalatory expositions of anti-diabetic drugs--dicarboxylic acids derivatives: phensuccinalum (PhS) and diacamph (Dc) in toxic and sub-toxic doses is studied. It has been found that one of the key biochemical mechanisms which determines the early signs of the toxic damage in the cells and organism under the effect of certain doses/concentrations of PhS (500 and 100 mg/kg, 20.2 mg/m3) and Dc (1000 mg/kg) consists in intensification of the free-radical processes, including, in particular, LPO combined with activation of MOGS and inhibition of SAOP in microsomal fraction of the liver. The high significance of changes of researched parameters for an assessment or forecasting of toxicity of dicarboxylic acids derivates is shown. Unlike the liver, the PhS and Dc impact on the blood caused changes of compensatory-adaptive nature in the LPO and SAOP systems. 相似文献

The rate of phospholipid hydrolysis in rat liver microsomal and mitochondrial membranes catalyzed by phospholipase A2 was shown to decrease after ascorbate + Fe2+-induced lipid peroxidation. The degree of inhibition was linearly dependent on the amount of lipid peroxidation products (malonyl dialdehyde) accumulated in the membrane. The decreased phospholipid hydrolysis rate in membranes after lipid peroxidation was registered using phospholipases A2 from two sources: porcine pancreas and bee venom. It was established that the inhibitory action of phospholipid peroxidation products was not linked with a direct effect on the enzyme and was not caused by depletion of phospholipase reaction substrates (as a result of lipid peroxidation). A possible role of lateral separation of oxidized and non-oxidized lipid phases in the mechanisms of inhibition of phospholipid hydrolysis by phospholipase A2 is discussed. 相似文献
