Hemoglobin (Hb) vesicles (particle diameter, ca. 250 nm) have been developed as Hb-based oxygen carriers in which a purified Hb solution is encapsulated with a phospholipid bilayer membrane. The oxidation of Hb to nonfunctional ferric Hb (metHb) was caused by reactive oxygen species, especially hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), in vivo in addition to autoxidation. We focused on the enzymatic elimination of H(2)O(2) to suppress the metHb formation in the Hb vesicles. In this study, we coencapsulated catalase with Hb within vesicles and studied the rate of metHb formation in vivo. The Hb vesicles containing 5.6 x 10(4) unit mL(-1) catalase decreased the rate of metHb formation by half in comparison with Hb vesicles without catalase. We succeeded in prolonging the oxygen-carrying ability of the Hb vesicle in vivo by the coencapsulation of catalase. 相似文献

Hemoglobin (Hb) vesicles have been developed as cellular-type Hb-based O(2) carriers in which a purified and concentrated Hb solution is encapsulated with a phospholipid bilayer membrane. Ferrous Hb molecules within an Hb vesicle were converted to ferric metHb by reacting with reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) generated in the living body or during the autoxidation of oxyHb in the Hb vesicle, and this leads to the loss of O(2) binding ability. The prevention of metHb formation by H(2)O(2) in the Hb vesicle is required to prolong the in vivo O(2) carrying ability. We found that a mixed solution of metHb and L-tyrosine (L-Tyr) showed an effective H(2)O(2) elimination ability by utilizing the reverse peroxidase activity of metHb with L-Tyr as an electron donor. The time taken for the conversion of half of oxyHb to metHb (T(50)) was 420 min for the Hb vesicles containing 4 g/dL (620 microM) metHb and 8.5 mM L-Tyr ((metHb/L-Tyr) Hb vesicles), whereas the time of conversion for the conventional Hb vesicles was 25 min by stepwise injection of H(2)O(2) (310 microM) in 10 min intervals. Furthermore, in the (metHb/L-Tyr) Hb vesicles, the metHb percentage did not reach 50% even after 48 h under a pO(2) of 40 Torr at 37 degrees C, whereas T(50) of the conventional Hb vesicles was 13 h under the same conditions. Moreover, the T(50) values of the conventional Hb vesicles and the (metHb/L-Tyr) Hb vesicles were 14 and 44 h, respectively, after injection into rats (20 mL/kg), confirming the remarkable inhibitory effect of metHb formation in vivo in the (metHb/L-Tyr) Hb vesicles. 相似文献

Membrane fluidity of human erythrocytes treated with H2O2 (1--20 mM) was studied using three kinds of fatty acid spin labels. A strongly immobilized signal appeared on exposure of erythrocytes to H2O2 but was not observed in either H2O2- or Fenton's reagent-treated ghosts or lipid vesicles prepared from H2O2-treated erythrocytes, indicating that the appearance of this signal necessitates the reaction of hemoglobin with H2O2 and is not due to lipid peroxidation. The ESR spectrum of maleimide-prelabeled erythrocytes showed an isotropic signal and the rotational correlation time (tau c) increased as the concentration of H2O2 was increased. Furthermore, maleimide labeling of H2O2-pretreated erythrocytes showed a strongly immobilized component, in addition to a weakly immobilized component. From the relative ratio of the signal intensity of hemoglobin and membrane proteins, it was found that label molecules bound predominantly to hemoglobin. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of H2O2-treated erythrocytes demonstrated globin aggregation. Therefore, the changes in the ESR signal observed on H2O2 treatment may be due to some change in hemoglobin, such as globin aggregation or its binding to the membranes. The ESR spectrum of H2O2-treated erythrocytes at -196 degrees C is characterized by signals of nonheme ferric iron type (g equal to 4.3), low spin ferric iron, and free radical type at g equal to 2.00. At higher H2O2 concentrations, the ESR lines due to low spin ferric iron became broad and their peak heights decreased, compared with that at g equal to 2.00 or 4.3. These results indicate that oxidative stress such as decrease of membrane fluidity, lipid peroxidation, and globin aggregation in H2O2-treated erythrocytes is dependent on the reaction of hemoglobin with H2O2. 相似文献

Cytochrome c(3+)-catalyzed peroxidation of phosphatidylcholine liposomes by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was indicated by the production of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, oxygen consumption, and emission of spontaneous chemiluminescence. The iron chelator diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) only partially inhibited peroxidation when H2O2 concentrations were 200 microM or greater. In contrast, iron compounds such as ferric chloride, potassium ferricyanide, and hemin induced H2O2-dependent lipid peroxidation which was totally inhibitable by DTPA. Cyanide and urate, which react at or near the cytochrome-heme, completely prevented lipid peroxidation, while hydroxyl radical scavengers and superoxide dismutase had very little or no inhibitory effect. Changes in liposome surface charge did not influence cytochrome c3+ plus H2O2-dependent peroxidation, but a net negative charge was critical in favoring cytochrome c(3+)-dependent, H2O2-independent lipid auto-oxidative processes. These results show that reaction of cytochrome c with H2O2 promotes membrane oxidation by more than one chemical mechanism, including formation of high oxidation states of iron at the cytochrome-heme and also by heme iron release at higher H2O2 concentrations. Cytochrome c3+ could react with mitochondrial H2O2 to yield "site-specific" mitochondrial membrane lipid peroxidation during tissue oxidant stress. 相似文献

The interactions of mouse thymocytes with unilamellar phospholipid vesicles comprised of dimyristyl lecithin (DML), dipalmitoyl lecithin (DPL), dioleoyl lecithin (DOL), and egg yolk lecithin (EYL) were examined in vitro.In cells treated with [3H]DML or [3H]DPL vesicles, electron microscope (EM) autoradiographic analysis showed most of the radioactive lipids to be confined to the cell surface. Transmission EM studies showed the presence of intact vesicles (DPL) and collapsed or ruptured vesicle fragments (DML) adsorbed to the surfaces of treated cells. In cells treated with DPL vesicles containing a watersoluble dye (6-carboxyfluorescein; 6-CF), most of the fluorescent vesicles were localized at the periphery of the treated cells. Furthermore, substantial fractions of the cell-associated DPL and DML could be released by a mild trypsinization without damaging the cells. These results suggest that the uptake of DML and DPL is primarily due to vesicle-cell adsorption. Such an adsorption process appears to be enhanced at or below the thermotropic-phase transition temperature of the vesicle lipid. Under certain conditions these adherent vesicles also formed patches or caps on the cell surface.In cells treated with DOL or EYL vesicles, transmission EM and EM autoradiography showed relatively little exogenous vesicle lipid located at the cell surface. Thymocytes incubated (37°C) with [14C] EYL vesicles containing a trapped marker, [3H]inulin, incor porated both isotopes at identical rates. In separate experiments it was found that this marker was located inside the treated cells. Thymocytes treated with DOL vesicles containing 6-CF exhibited a uniform and diffuse distribution of dye in the internal volume of the cells. Little cell-associated EYL or DOL could be released by trypsinization. Evidence against endocytosis of intact vesicles as a major pathway of vesicle uptake is also presented. These observations, coupled with the demonstration of vesicle-cell lipid exchange as a minor component of vesicle uptake suggest that incorporation of EYL and DOL vesicles by thymocytes is primarily by vesicle-cell fusion. 相似文献

Fe(II)- and Fe(III)-induced lipid peroxidation of rabbit small intestinal microvillus membrane vesicles was studied. Ferrous ammonium sulphate, ferrous ascorbate at a molar ratio of 10:1, and ferric citrate, at molar ratios of 1:1 and 1:20, did not stimulate lipid peroxidation. Ferrous ascorbate, 1:1, induced low stimulation, while ferrous ascorbate, 1:20 gave higher stimulation of lipid peroxidation. These results show that in our experimental system, ascorbate is a promotor rather than an inhibitor of lipid peroxidation. Ferric nitrilotriacetate (at molar ratios of 1:2 and 1:10), at an iron concentration of 200 microM, was by far the most effective in inducing lipid peroxidation. Superoxide dismutase, mannitol and glutathione had no effect, while catalase, thiourea and vitamin E markedly decreased ferrous ascorbate 1:20-induced lipid peroxidation. Ferric nitrilotriacetate-induced lipid peroxidation was slightly reduced by catalase and mannitol, significantly reduced by superoxide dismutase, and completely inhibited by thiourea. Glutathione caused a 100% increase in the ferric nitrilotriacetate-induced lipid peroxidation. These results suggest that Fe(II) in the presence of trace amounts of Fe(III), or an oxidizing agent and Fe(III) in the presence of Fe(II) or a reducing agent, are potent stimulators of lipid peroxidation of microvillus membrane vesicles. Addition of deferoxamine completely inhibited both ferrous ascorbate, 1:20 and ferric nitrilotriacetate-induced lipid peroxidation, demonstrating the requirement for iron for its stimulation. Iron-induced peroxidation of microvillus membrane may have physiological significance because it could already be demonstrated at 2 microM iron concentration. 相似文献

Ferric methemoglobin is reduced to its ferrous form by photoirradiation either by direct photoexcitation of the heme portion to induce electron transfer from the surrounding media (Sakai at al. (2000) Biochemistry 39, 14595-14602) or by an indirect electron transfer from a photochemically reduced electron mediator such as flavin. In this research, we studied the mechanism and optimal condition that facilitates photoreduction of flavin mononucleotide (FMN) to FMNH(2) by irradiation of visible light, and the succeeding reduction of concentrated metHb in phospholipid vesicles to restore its O(2) binding ability. Visible light irradiation (435 nm) of a metHb solution containing FMN and an electron donor such as EDTA showed a significantly fast reduction to ferrous Hb with a quantum yield (Phi) of 0.17, that is higher than the method of direct photoexcitation of heme (Phi = 0.006). Electron transfer from a donor molecule to metHb via FMN was completed within 30 ns. Native-PAGE and IEF electrophoresis indicated no chemical modification of the surface of the reduced Hb. Coencapsulation of concentrated Hb solution (35 g/dL) and the FMN/EDTA system in vesicles covered with a phospholipid bilayer membrane (Hb-vesicles, HbV, diameter: 250 nm) facilitated the metHb photoreduction even under aerobic conditions, and the reduced HbV restored the reversible O(2) binding property. A concentrated HbV suspension ([Hb] = 8 g/dL) was sandwiched with two glass plates to form a liquid layer with the thickness of about 10 microm (close to capillary diameter in tissue, 5 microm), and visible light irradiation (221 mW/cm(2)) completed 100% metHb photoreduction within 20 s. The photoreduced FMNH(2) reacted with O(2) to produce H(2)O(2), which was detected by the fluorescence measurement of the reaction of H(2)O(2) and p-nitrophenylacetic acid. However, the amount of H(2)O(2) generated during the photoreduction of HbV was significantly reduced in comparison with the homogeneous Hb solution, indicating that the photoreduced FMNH(2) was effectively consumed during the metHb reduction in a highly concentrated condition inside the HbV nanoparticles. 相似文献

The effect of unilamellar lipid vesicles composed of dioleoyl lecithin (DOL), egg yolk lecithin (EYL), 1:1 EYL:cholesterol (Chol), dipalmitoyl lecithin (DPL), and dimyristoyl lecithin (DML) on the mitogenic response in mouse lymphocytes was tested. Cortisone-resistant thymocytes were briefly treated with lipid vesicles and subsequently stimulated with concanavalin A (con A). All of the lipid vesicles induced an enhanced mitogenic response on day 3 as tested by [3H]TdR incorporation and by counting total cells. The order of enhanced [3H]TdR incorporation (?5.3 times the control) was DML>DPL>1:1 EYL:Chol>EYL?DOL> untreated control cells. These increases were paralleled by increased numbers of total cells. The response of spleen cells to a B-cell mitogen, bacterial lipopolysaccharide, was similarly enhanced by vesicle pretreatments in the same order. Vesicle treatments alone were not mitogenic.Pretreatment of cells with lipid vesicles modified lectin binding: DML and DPL increased the binding of [125I]con A by three to four times the control, whereas 1:1 EYL:Chol, EYL, or DOL had little or no effect. The binding of [125I]phytohemagglutinin-P (PHA-P) to vesicle-treated cells was indistinguishable from untreated cells. The lectin (con A; PHA-P)-induced agglutination of vesicle-treated cells was also modified by different lipid vesicles in the same order as the mitogenic response.Based on the results presented in the accompanying report [6], we find that the cell surface adsorption properties of the applied lipid vesicles correlate with their ability to enhance the mitogenic response, and that they modify agglutinability and lectin binding. These results are further discussed in terms of the possible alteration of membrane properties and subsequent cellular activity. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to examine and compare the effects of methemoglobin (metHb) and ferrylhemoglobin (ferrylHb) on the erythrocyte membrane. Kinetic studies of the decay of ferrylhemoglobin (*HbFe(IV)=O denotes ferryl derivative of hemoglobin present 5 min after initiation of the reaction of metHb with H(2)O(2); ferrylHb) showed that autoredecay of this derivative is slower than its decay in the presence of whole erythrocytes and erythrocyte membranes. It provides evidence for interactions between ferrylHb and the erythrocyte membrane. Both hemoglobin derivatives induced small changes in the structure and function of the erythrocyte membrane which were more pronounced for ferrylHb. The amount of ferrylHb bound to erythrocyte membranes increased with incubation time and, after 2 h, was twice that of membrane-bound metHb. The incubation of erythrocytes with metHb or ferrylHb did not influence osmotic fragility and did not initiate peroxidation of membrane lipids in whole erythrocytes as well as in isolated erythrocyte membranes. Membrane acetylcholinesterase activity increased by about 10% after treatment of whole erythrocytes with both metHb and ferrylHb. ESR spectra of membrane-bound maleimide spin label demonstrated minor changes in the conformation of label-binding proteins in ferrylHb-treated erythrocyte membranes. The fluidity of the membrane surface layer decreased slightly after incubation of erythrocytes and isolated erythrocyte membranes with ferrylHb and metHb. In whole erythrocytes, these changes were not stable and disappeared during longer incubation. 相似文献

Mechanism of oxidative damage to fish red blood cells by ozone 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The present study was conducted to elucidate the adverse effects of ozone exposure on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) red blood cells (RBCs). We evaluated whether hemoglobin (Hb) or Hb-derived free iron could participate in the RBC damage using an in vitro ozone exposure system. Ozone exposure induced hemolysis, formation of methemoglobin, and RBC membrane lipid peroxidation. This RBC damage was not suppressed by the addition of a specific iron chelator (deferoxamine mesilate) to the medium but was suppressed by carbon monoxide (CO) treatment before ozone exposure. Generation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in RBC was observed upon ozone exposure but was significantly suppressed by CO treatment before ozone exposure. Thus the Hb status (i.e., Hb redox condition) and H2O2 generation in RBC should play important roles in mediating RBC damage by ozone exposure. In other words, neither ozone nor its derivative directly attacked from the outside of the cell, but ozone that penetrated through the membrane derived the reactive oxygen species from Hb inside of the cell. 相似文献

Peroxynitrite-induced membrane lipid peroxidation: the cytotoxic potential of superoxide and nitric oxide. 总被引:61,自引:0,他引:61
R Radi J S Beckman K M Bush B A Freeman 《Archives of biochemistry and biophysics》1991,288(2):481-487
Endothelial cells, macrophages, neutrophils, and neuronal cells generate superoxide (O2-) and nitric oxide (.NO) which can combine to form peroxynitrite anion (ONOO-). Peroxynitrite, known to oxidize sulfhydryls and to yield products indicative of hydroxyl radical (.OH) reaction with deoxyribose and dimethyl sulfoxide, is shown herein to induce membrane lipid peroxidation. Peroxynitrite addition to soybean phosphatidylcholine liposomes resulted in malondialdehyde and conjugated diene formation, as well as oxygen consumption. Lipid peroxidation was greater at acidic and neutral pH, with no significant lipid peroxidation occurring above pH 9.5. Addition of ferrous (Fe+2) or ferric (Fe+3) iron did not enhance lipid peroxide formation over that attributable to peroxynitrite alone. Diethylenetetraminepentacetic acid (DTPA) or iron removal from solutions by ion-exchange chromatography decreased conjugated diene formation by 25-50%. Iron did not play an essential role in initiating lipid peroxidation, since DTPA and iron depletion of reaction systems were only partially inhibitory. In contrast, desferrioxamine had an even greater concentration-dependent inhibitory effect, completely abolishing lipid peroxidation at 200 microM. The strong inhibitory effect of desferrioxamine on lipid peroxidation was due to direct reaction with peroxynitrous acid in addition to iron chelation. We conclude that the conjugate acid of peroxynitrite, peroxynitrous acid (ONOOH), and/or its decomposition products, i.e., .OH and nitrogen dioxide (.NO2), initiate lipid peroxidation without the requirement of iron. These observations demonstrate a potential mechanism contributing to O2-(-)and .NO-mediated cytotoxicity. 相似文献

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a recurrent inflammation of the colon and rectum that is characterized by subepithelial hemorrhage, epithelial cell necrosis, infiltration of large numbers of phagocytic leukocytes (neutrophils, eosinophils, macrophages), and mucosal ulcerations. Recent evidence suggests that mucosal lipid peroxidation may play an important role in that pathogenesis of the inflammation-induced intestinal injury. Using hemoglobin (Hb)-catalyzed, H2O2-dependent peroxidation of phospholipid as a model of oxidative injury to membrane lipids, we assessed the ability of the anti-inflammatory drugs sulfasalazine (SAZ), olsalazine, and their metabolites, 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), N-acetyl-5-ASA, and sulfapyridine (SP) to inhibit this reaction. We found that Hb interacted with H2O2 to yield the radical and nonradical forms of ferryl Hb (Hb(V)) which were capable of initiating the peroxidation of a phospholipid. This interaction did not result in the peroxide-dependent release of iron from the hemoprotein. In addition, we demonstrated that the pharmacologically active moiety of SAZ (or olsalazine), 5-ASA, was significantly better at inhibiting the Hb-catalyzed peroxidative reaction. The concentration of 5-ASA required to inhibit lipid peroxidation by 50% (IC50) was determined to be 50 microM. Neither parent compound (SAZ, olsalazine) nor the pharmacologically inactive metabolite (SP) were effective in attenuating the lipid peroxidation at concentrations up to 100 microM. The N-acetylated derivative of 5-ASA was less effective as an inhibitor in this system possessing an IC50 of 100 microM. The mechanism by which 5-ASA inhibited lipid peroxidation appeared to be due to its ability to donate electrons to and thus scavenge the radical and nonradical forms of HB(IV).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The redox cycle of 2,5-dimethoxybenzoquinone (2,5-DMBQ) is proposed as a source of reducing equivalent for the regeneration of Fe2+ and H2O2 in brown rot fungal decay of wood. Oxalate has also been proposed to be the physiological iron reductant. We characterized the effect of pH and oxalate on the 2,5-DMBQ-driven Fenton chemistry and on Fe3+ reduction and oxidation. Hydroxyl radical formation was assessed by lipid peroxidation. We found that hydroquinone (2,5-DMHQ) is very stable in the absence of iron at pH 2 to 4, the pH of degraded wood. 2,5-DMHQ readily reduces Fe3+ at a rate constant of 4.5 x 10(3) M(-1)s(-1) at pH 4.0. Fe2+ is also very stable at a low pH. H2O2 generation results from the autoxidation of the semiquinone radical and was observed only when 2,5-DMHQ was incubated with Fe3+. Consistent with this conclusion, lipid peroxidation occurred only in incubation mixtures containing both 2,5-DMHQ and Fe3+. Catalase and hydroxyl radical scavengers were effective inhibitors of lipid peroxidation, whereas superoxide dismutase caused no inhibition. At a low concentration of oxalate (50 micro M), ferric ion reduction and lipid peroxidation are enhanced. Thus, the enhancement of both ferric ion reduction and lipid peroxidation may be due to oxalate increasing the solubility of the ferric ion. Increasing the oxalate concentration such that the oxalate/ferric ion ratio favored formation of the 2:1 and 3:1 complexes resulted in inhibition of iron reduction and lipid peroxidation. Our results confirm that hydroxyl radical formation occurs via the 2,5-DMBQ redox cycle. 相似文献

Thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance formation of rat kidney brush border membrane vesicles induced by ferric nitrilotriacetate 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe3+-NTA), is nephrotoxic and also carcinogenic to the kidney in experimental animals. Iron-promoted lipid peroxidation in the proximal tubules is thought to be responsible for the pathologic process. In the present study, iron-promoted lipid peroxidation, with thiobarbituric acid (TBA) formation as an indication, in the tubular surface was simulated in vitro using rat kidney brush border membrane vesicles and the results were compared with those using linoleate micelles and rat liver microsomal lipid liposomes. Addition of ascorbate, cysteine, or dithiothreitol to the Fe3+-NTA solution resulted in consumption of dissolved oxygen and promoted the lipid peroxidation in the micelles and in the liposomes. In contrast, addition of glutathione to the Fe3+-NTA solution caused only sluggish oxygen consumption and far less peroxidation in these lipid systems. When the brush border membrane vesicles were used for the peroxidation substrate, Fe3+-NTA and glutathione could promote TBA formation at a rate comparable to that elicited by Fe3+-NTA with cysteine or dithiothreitol. Acivicin, a gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase inhibitor, suppressed the peroxidation of the brush border membrane vesicles promoted by Fe3+-NTA and glutathione. These results suggest the following mechanism of proximal tubular cell lipid peroxidation promoted by Fe-NTA: Fe3+-NTA filtered through glomeruli is rapidly reduced by cysteine and Fe2+-NTA starts lipid peroxidation at the site, leading to proximal tubular necrosis. Cysteine is amply supplied by the decomposition of glutathione within the lumen by the action of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase and dipeptidase situated at the proximal tubular brush border membrane. 相似文献

Patients with increased haemolytic haemoglobin (Hb) have 10-20-times greater incidence of cardiovascular mortality. The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of Hb peroxidase activity in LDL oxidation. The role of Hb in lipid peroxidation, H(2)O(2) generation and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) was assessed using NaN(3), a peroxidase inhibitor, catalase, a H(2)O(2) decomposing enzyme and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), respectively. Hb induced H(2)O(2) production by reacting with LDL, linoleate and cell membrane lipid extracts. Hb-induced LDL oxidation was inhibited by NaN(3) and catalase. Furthermore, Hb stimulated ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression, which was inhibited by the antioxidant, probucol. Thus, the present study suggests that the peroxidase activity of Hb produces atherogenic, oxidized LDL and oxidized polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in the cell membrane and reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation mediated Hb-induced ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression. 相似文献

The relationship between lipid peroxidation and phospholipase A2 (PLA2) hydrolytic activity was studied using unilamellar vesicles (liposomes) as model membranes. Hydrolytic specificity was examined using vesicles prepared with pure bovine heart phosphatidylcholine (PC), bovine heart phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), or mixtures of these phospholipids, using two preparative procedures, i.e., sonication or extrusion. Lipid peroxidation was induced by incubating vesicles with cumene hydroperoxide and hematin at 37 degrees C. Determinations of the extent of peroxidation by means of diene conjugate content derived from second derivative spectra or by polarographic measurement of oxygen consumption rates provided a basis for comparing the extent of peroxidation of each phospholipid species to their subsequent hydrolysis by PLA2 (from Crotalus adamanteus). The extent of hydrolysis was determined through the release of arachidonic acid from either PC or PE. The PE distribution among the outer vs. inner leaflet of the membrane bilayer was nearly equal in sonicated vesicles, whereas most of the phospholipid was incorporated into the inner leaflet in extruded vesicles. The proportion of PE found in the inner leaflet progressively increased as the ratio of PE to PC increased in both sonicated and extruded vesicle preparations. Lipid peroxidation had no effect on PE distribution under the conditions examined. There was a clear preference for PC peroxidation for all vesicle compositions tested and PC was preferentially hydrolyzed by PLA2. This effect is proposed to result from a perturbation of membrane structure following peroxidation with assimilation of PC into PLA2-susceptible domains whereas PE peroxidation and hydrolysis is less affected in mixed PC/PE vesicles. Lipid peroxidation imposes an additional hydrolytic susceptibility over the effects exerted through the mixing of these phospholipids which is based on structural changes rather than formation of specific substrates for PLA2. 相似文献

Lipid peroxidation in hemoglobin-containing liposomes. Effects of membrane phospholipid composition and cholesterol content 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The effects of phospholipid-oxidation state and vesicle composition on lipid peroxidation in hemolysate-containing liposomes (hemosomes) were studied by the thiobarbituric acid assay. Liposomes (hemosomes) were prepared from egg phosphatidylcholine (PC) with either low (PC0.08) or high (PC0.66) oxidation indices reflecting low and high conjugated diene/lipid hydroperoxy contents. Thiobarbituric acid reactivity was negligible over 6 h at 38 degrees C in buffer-containing (control) liposomes prepared from PC0.08, whereas it was slightly increased in those prepared from PC0.66. Encapsulated hemolysate had no effect in PC0.08 liposomes, but significantly increased thiobarbituric acid reactivity in those prepared from PC0.66. Inclusion of either phosphatidylethanolamine or phosphatidylinositol in the membrane further increased lipid peroxidation in hemosomes prepared from PC0.66, whereas phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylserine were inhibitory. Inclusion of cholesterol in the membrane had no effect in PC0.66 hemosomes, but significantly inhibited lipid peroxidation in the presence of phosphatidylethanolamine or phosphatidylinositol. The effects of phosphatidic acid and cholesterol were dose-dependent. Co-incorporation of cholesterol and phosphatidic acid or phosphatidylserine in the membrane resulted in almost complete elimination of hemoglobin (Hb)-induced lipid peroxidation. Lysophosphatidic acid had similar effect as phosphatidic acid, whereas lysophosphatidylserine exerted inhibition only in the presence of phosphatidylethanolamine. The rate of lipid peroxidation showed no correlation with the amount of encapsulated Hb, neither with the oxidation indices nor the polyunsaturated fatty acid contents of negatively charged phospholipids. The above findings suggest a possible role for the high cholesterol content and preferential localization of phosphatidylserine in the inner bilayer leaflet of erythrocyte membrane in protecting against Hb-induced lipid peroxidation in the membrane. 相似文献

The permeability of egg yolk lecithin (EYL) vesicles to Pr3+ has been measured by 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (nmr) spectroscopy. Measurable Pr3+ leakage into the internal aqueous compartment of EYL vesicles at ambient (21 degrees C) temperature required the presence of small (7--10 mol%) amounts of dicetyl phosphate (DCP). The permeability of DCP-containing vesicles is decreased by incorporation of sterol (cholesterol greater than ergosterol approximately 5.6-dihydroergosterol greater than zymosterol) into the lipid bilayer. Addition of the polyene macrolide antibiotic, nystatin, to DCP-containing EYL vesicles with and without sterol resulted in increased Pr3+ permeability at the three temperatures studied (21--37.5 degrees C). Permeability changes observed upon addition of nystatin to sterol-impregnated, DCP-containing vesicles varied with sterol structure: ergosterol approximately 5,6-dihydroergosterol greater than cholesterol approximately zymosterol. These results are compared with other polyene macrolide induced permeability changes on model and natural membrane systems. Permeability changes induced by nystatin in sterol-free EYL vesicles were generally greater than for comparable sterol-containing vesicles. This is attributed to a nonspecific interaction of the antibiotic with the latter vesicles. 相似文献
