A study on the effect of retinolin vitro on the hemolysis of vitamin E deficient rat red blood cells showed that retinol enhanced the lysis of the E deficient cells as compared to the lysis of normal cells. The lipid peroxidation present during hydrogen peroxide induced lysis of E deficient cells was however markedly inhibited in the presence of retinol without affecting the rate of lysis. In an actively peroxidising system of non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation of rat liver or brain homogenates and of brain lysosomes incubated with human erythrocytes, no lysis was obtained; incorporation of retinol in such systems resulted in lysis but no peroxidation. Hydrogen peroxide generating substances almost completely inhibited the lysis of normal human erythrocytes by retinol, but linoleic acid hydroperoxide and auto-oxidised liver or brain homogenates and ox-brain liposomes increased the lysis. It is concluded that vitamin E deficient erythrocyte hemolysis may be augmented by retinol, an anti-oxidant, having a lytic function without the peroxidation of stromal lipids  相似文献

A new assay has been developed to study the osmotic fragility of red blood cells (RBCs) and the involvement of oxygen-derived free radicals and other oxidant species in causing human red blood cell hemolysis. The amount of hemoglobin released into the supernatant, which is a measure of human red blood cell hemolysis, is monitored using an ELISA reader. This ELISA-based osmotic fragility test compared well with the established osmotic fragility test, with the added advantage of significantly reduced time and the requirement of only 60 mul of blood. This small amount of blood was collected fresh by finger puncture and was immediately diluted 50 times with PBS, thus eliminating the use of anticoagulants and the subsequent washings. Since exposure of RBCs to 400 Gy gamma radiation caused less than 5% hemolysis 24 h after irradiation, the RBC hemolysis induced by gamma radiation was amplified by irradiating the cell in hypotonic saline. The method was validated by examining the protective effect of Trolox, an analog of vitamin E and reduced glutathione (GSH), a well-known radioprotector, against human RBC hemolysis caused by the combined action of radiation and osmotic stress. Trolox, a known membrane stabilizer and an antioxidant, and GSH offered significant protection. This new method, which is simple and requires significantly less time and fewer RBCs, may offer the ability to study the effects of antioxidants and membrane stabilizers on human red blood cell hemolysis induced by radiation and oxidative stress and assess the osmotic fragility of erythrocytes.  相似文献

Microcrystals of monosodium urate monohydrate(MSUM)induce cytolysis and hemolysis inerythrocytes.In this report,we studied the effect of vitamin E on MSUM-mediated hemolysis in humanerythrocytes.Vitamin E significantly inhibited hemolysis induced by MSUM.The hydroxyl group in thechromanol ring of vitamin E is dispensable for protecting erythrocytes against hemolysis induced by MSUM,indicating that the inhibitory effect of vitamin E is not due to its antioxidant properties.However,both thechromanol ring and the isoprenoid side chain are important for vitamin E to suppress MSUM-induced hemolysis.Our current study suggests that vitamin E inhibits hemolysis induced by MSUM as a membrane stabilizer.  相似文献

Both hypochlorite and ionizing radiation induce oxidation processes of biomolecules. The effects are dependent to a large degree on the dose of the oxidizing agent. Previously we observed that split doses of gamma radiation caused lower hemolysis than the same but single doses. The critical factors influencing the occurrence of this effect were: the value of the first dose and the time between the doses. In this work we examined the effect of gamma radiation (40-400 Gy) on hemolysis of human erythrocytes induced by hypochlorite. Erythrocytes in PBS, hematocrit 2 %, were irradiated with doses of 40, 200 or 400 Gy. The dose-rate was 23.8 Gy/min. Cell suspensions were stirred during irradiation. After irradiation the erythrocytes were incubated for 1, 3 or 4 hours at room temperature and then hypochlorite was added to a 250 microM concentration. Control samples were erythrocytes treated only with NaOCl. The level of hemolysis was determined after NaOCl addition. Hemolysis of erythrocytes preirradiated with the dose of 400 Gy was lower than hemolysis of erythrocytes treated only with NaOCl. The effect was dependent on the time between the end of irradiation and the addition of NaOCl. In contrast, slightly higher hemolysis was observed for erythrocytes preirradiated with lower (40 or 200 Gy) doses of radiation. The observed effect is similar to that obtained for radiation-induced hemolysis. It suggests that ionizing radiation may induce structural and/or functional changes in erythrocytes, which make the cell more resistant to further oxidative damage.  相似文献

During studies of the mechanism by which hemolysis is induced in irradiated human erythrocytes in vitro, several inducements of membrane lipid peroxidation and protective effects of vitamin E (V.E) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were investigated. Findings were: (1) Before hemolysis, K+ release from erythrocytes induced by radiation stimulated hemolysis but was inhibited by V.E or SOD. (2) Lipid peroxidation of mitochondria induced by Fe3+, ADP, and superoxide (O2-) generating system, and lipid peroxidation of microsome induced by O2- generating system, were also inhibited by V.E or SOD. (3) X-ray or 60Co gamma-ray radiation stimulated lipid peroxidation of liver homogenate, microsome, and liposome. Some of this peroxidation was inhibited by V.E. or SOD. These results suggest that O2- and/or OH formation by radiation induces membrane lipid peroxidation, which causes deterioration of membrane resulting in change of ion permeability and consequent hemolysis.  相似文献

Cells under aerobic condition are always threatened with the insult of reactive oxygen species, which are efficiently taken care of by the highly powerful antioxidant systems of the cell. The erythrocytes (RBCs) are constantly exposed to oxygen and oxidative stress but their metabolic activity is capable of reversing the injury under normal conditions. In vitro hemolysis of RBCs induced by 5, 10 and 20 mM glucose was used as a model to study the free radical induced damage of biological membranes in hyperglycemic conditions and the protection rendered by vitamin E on the same. RBCs are susceptible to oxidative damage, peroxidation of the membrane lipids, release of hemoglobin (hemolysis) and alteration in activity of antioxidant enzymes catalase and superoxide dismutase. The glucose induced oxidative stress and the protective effect of vitamin E on cellular membrane of human RBCs manifested as inhibition of membrane peroxidation and protein oxidation and restoration of activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase, was investigated.Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances are generated from decomposition of lipid peroxides and their determination gives a reliable estimate of the amount of lipid peroxides present in the membrane. Vitamin E at 18 μg/ml (normal serum level) strongly enhanced the RBC resistance to oxidative lysis leading to only 50–55% hemolysis in 24 h, whereas RBCs treated with 10 and 20 mM glucose without vitamin E leads to 70–80% hemolysis in 24 h. Levels of enzymic antioxidants catalase, superoxide dismutase and nonenzymic antioxidants glutathione showed restoration to normal levels in presence of vitamin E. The study shows that vitamin E can protect the erythrocyte membrane exposed to hyperglycemic conditions and so a superior antioxidant status of a diabetic patient may be helpful in retarding the progressive tissue damage seen in chronic diabetic patients.  相似文献

Erythrocytes from rats fed large doses of Vitamin A alone, or large doses of vitamin A and vitamin E or diphenyl-p-phenylene diamine (DPPD) were studied for H2O2-induced hemolysis. The vitamin A-dosed rats were more susceptible than normal rats to H2O2-induced hemolysis. Hemolysis was not accompanied by lipid peroxidation. Nevertheless, the antioxidants vitamin E and DPPD inhibited hemolysis in erythrocytes from vitamin A-dosed rats. These antioxidants had the same inhibitory effect when they were included in the diet or added to erythrocyte suspensions in vitro. Erythrocytes from vitamin A-dosed rats with or without added vitamin E or DPPD were less susceptible than the erythrocytes from normal rats to osmotic challenge, showing that vitamin A was present in levels sufficient to alter the structure of the erythrocyte membrane. These studies show that oxidative hemolysis occurs when the erythrocyte membrane is modified. Furthermore, this oxidative hemolysis is unrelated to lipid peroxidation.  相似文献

Interactions between dietary Cu, Se, and vitamin E in ascorbate-induced hemolysis of erythrocytes obtained from rats fed diets deficient or adequate in these elements were investigated. Hemolysis was affected by all three dietary factors, through closely interrelated but distinct mechanisms. In vitamin E-deficient cells, hemolysis was increased and the amount of hemolysis was directly related to the amount of hemoglobin breakdown. Deficiency of Cu or Se decreased hemolysis, but only in vitamin E-deficient cells. Vitamin E did not affect the breakdown of hemoglobin, but Cu and Se did. Hemolysis and hemoglobin breakdown were decreased by the addition of glucose, through mechanisms independent of that involving reduced glutathione metabolism. These results suggest that vitamin E acts within erythrocyte membranes to prevent products of hemoglobin breakdown from initiating peroxidation and subsequent hemolysis. Effects of Cu and Se are linked with that of vitamin E by the involvement of glutathione peroxidase and Cu superoxide dismutase in the cytoplasmic breakdown of hemoglobin, rather than by a direct effect of these enzymes on lipid peroxidation. It is concluded that the erythrocyte, because of its high heme content, probably represents a special system in terms of peroxidative pathways, and these findings may not be directly applicable to other tissues.  相似文献

Exposure of human erythrocytes in a 50% hematocrit to 0.5-1 mM Hg2+ initiated immediate hemolysis which proceeded at a constant rate without any formation of lipid hydroperoxides. Treatment of 0.03% hematocrits with 0.4 ppm of Hg2+ or 40 ppm of methylmercury caused rapid hemolysis after a short lag period. The kinetics of the process were unaltered by saturation of the cell suspensions with oxygen, by its replacement with He or CO, or by variation in the level of vitamin E in the membranes. The results show that peroxidation of erythrocyte membrane lipids is not the cause of hemolysis induced by either Hg2+ or methylmercury.  相似文献

Human erythrocytes admixed with vitamin E supplements (50 mug/ml) were exposed to NO2 in concentrations of 200-600 p.p.m. at 37 degrees C for 2 h. No protective effect against the increase in the redox ratio [NAD+]/[NADH]normally produced by NO2 was observed. It is postulated that NO2 increases the redox ratio by a mechanism independent of that producing hemolysis and prevented by vitamin E. This may involve alteration of NADH dependent enzymes by NO2.  相似文献

Human erythrocytes suspended in an isotonic Na-phosphate buffer, pH 7.4 (hematocrit 2%) were exposed under air to gamma radiation at a dose rates of 2.2 kGy.h-1 and 4.2 kGy.h-1. The dose-response curves for hemolysis of erythrocytes indicated that the process of hemolysis is inversely related to the dose-rate. At both dose-rates we observed a reduced level of hemolysis, when erythrocytes were irradiated with a split dose (0.4 kGy + 2.3 kGy with an interval time between the subsequent exposures from 1 to 4 h) in comparison with the same single dose (2.7 kGy). The maximal effect of fractionation was observed when the interfraction time was equal to 3.5 h. The influence of the interfraction temperature on this effect was observed. The results obtained indicate that enucleated human erythrocytes under suitable radiation conditions are capable of repairing radiation damage which leads to hemolysis.  相似文献

The oxidative action of 1 mmol l(-1) phenylhydrazine hydrochloride (PH) was studied on human erythrocytes treated with the antioxidants vitamin C (vit. C) and vitamin E (vit. E). The erythrocytes were resuspended in PBS to obtain 35% cell packed volume, and then submitted to the oxidative action of PH for 20 min, with or without previous incubation for 60 min with vit. C or vit. E. Heinz bodies and methemoglobin formation by PH were inhibited in the presence of vit. C. At the concentration of 90 mmol l(-1), vit. C, not only seemed to lose its antioxidant effect, but it also promoted an increase in methemoglobin formation. Vit. C (0.5-80 mmol l(-1)) did not protect against GSH depletion by PH. Vit. C alone produced insignificant hemolysis, but, in the presence of PH, the hemolysis indices were more accentuated. Heinz body formation by PH was inhibited in the presence of vit. E. Formation of methemoglobin induced by PH was decreased by vit. E (0.1-2 mmol l(-1)), although vit. E (3-80 mmol l(-1)) did not lower the concentration of methemoglobin and did not lead to the recovery of the GSH depleted by PH. The results obtained suggest that vit. C and vit. E contribute to the decrease in oxidative stress caused by PH.  相似文献

The tendency of rat red blood cells to hemolyze in the presence of peroxidizing rat liver microsomes is greatly increased if the red cells are obtained from vitamin E deficient rats. Adequate dietary vitamin E supplementation imparts resistance against hemolysis. Dietary butylated hydroxytoluene or the level of erythrocyte glutathione or total thiols are relatively unimportant factors in determining red cell sensitivity to hemolysis induced by perixiziding microsomes. When separated from peroxidizing microsomes by a dialysis membrane, vitamin E deficient cells are completely hemolyzed. Hemolytically active material can be separated from peroxidized microsomes by dialysis at 0°C.  相似文献

Valinomycin and salinomycin-Na, 2 ionophorous antibiotics, exhibited in vitro antibabesial activities against Babesia gibsoni that infected normal canine erythrocytes containing low potassium (LK) and high sodium concentrations, i.e., LK erythrocytes, which completely lack Na,K-ATPase activity. The level of parasitemia of B. gibsoni was significantly decreased when the parasites were incubated in culture medium containing either 10(-1) ng/ml valinomycin or 10(2) ng/ml salinomycin-Na for 24 hr. Four-hour incubation in the culture medium containing 5 μg/ml salinomycin-Na led to the destruction of most parasites. In contrast, when the parasites infected canine erythrocytes containing high potassium (HK) and low sodium concentrations, i.e., HK erythrocytes, the in vitro antibabesial activities of both ionophorous antibiotics seemed to be weakened, apparently due to the protection by the host cells. Therefore, differential influences of ionophorous antibiotics on LK and HK erythrocytes were observed. In LK erythrocytes, the intracellular concentrations of potassium, sodium, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) were not modified, and hemolysis was not observed after incubation in the medium containing each ionophorous antibiotic. These results suggested that these ionophorous antibiotics did not affect cells without Na,K-ATPase, and directly affected B. gibsoni. In HK erythrocytes, the ionophorous antibiotics increased the intracellular sodium concentration, and decreased the intracellular potassium and ATP concentrations, causing obvious hemolysis. Additionally, the decrease of the intracellular ATP concentration and the hemolysis in HK erythrocytes caused by valinomycin disappeared when the activity of Na,K-ATPase was inhibited by ouabain. These results indicate that modification of the intracellular cation concentrations by the ionophorous antibiotics led to the activation of Na,K-ATPase and increased consumption of intracellular ATP, and that the depletion of intracellular ATP resulted in hemolysis in HK erythrocytes. Moreover, the antibabesial activity of valinomycin disappeared when B. gibsoni in LK erythrocytes were incubated in culture media containing high potassium concentrations. This showed that the intracellular cation concentration in the parasites was not modified in those media and would remain the same.  相似文献

When adding pharmacopoeian alpha-tocopherylacetate, short-chain alpha-tocopherylacetate, alpha-tocopherylquinine, short-chain alpha-tocopherylquinone and alpha-tocopheronolactone to E-avitaminotic rations pharmacopoeian alpha-tocopherylacetate and alpha-tocopheronolactone manifest the highest E-vitamin activity in preventing encephalomalacia in chickens. The action of alpha-tocopheronolactone is not directly associated with changes in the content of vitamin E and ubiquinone in the brain and liver tissues. All the studied derivatives are effective in increasing resistance of erythrocytes to osmotic hemolysis. The data obtained evidence for a nonspecific function of vitamin E in preventing alimentary encephalomalacia in chickens as well as for the absence of disturbances in ubiquinone metabolism under conditions of the E-hypovitaminosis experimental model.  相似文献

Expression of multiple drug resistant (MDR) phenotype and over-expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in the human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell clone P1(0.5), derived from the PLC/PRF/5 cell line (P5), are associated with strong resistance to oxidative stress and a significant (p < 0.01) increase in intracellular vitamin E content as compared with the parental cell line. This study evaluates the role of vitamin E in conferring resistance to drugs and oxidative stress in P1(0.5) cells. Parental drug-sensitive cells, P5, were incubated in alpha-tocopherol succinate (alpha-TS, 5 microM for 24 h) enriched medium to increase intracellular vitamin E content to levels comparable to those observed in P1(0.5) cells at basal conditions. Susceptibility to lipid peroxidation and oxidative DNA damage were assessed by measuring the concentration of thiobarbituric-reactive substances (TBARS) and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) at basal and after experimental conditions. Cell capacity to form colonies and resistance to doxorubicin were also studied. P5 cells, treated with alpha-TS, became resistant to ADP-Fe3+ and to ionizing radiation-induced lipid peroxidation as P1(0.5) cells. Exposure to ADP-Fe3+ or ionizing radiation increased TBARS and the 8-OHdG content in the P5 cells, while vitamin E enrichment abolished these effects. Irradiation doses at 5 cGy increased TBARS and 8-OHdG. They also inhibited cell capacity to form colonies in the untreated P5 cells. Incubation with alpha-TS fully reverted this effect and significantly (p < 0.01) reduced the inhibitory effect of cell proliferation induced by irradiation doses at >500 cGy. Resistance to doxorubicin was not affected by alpha-TS. These observations demonstrate the role of vitamin E in conferring protection from lipid peroxidation, ionizing radiation and oxidative DNA damage on the human HCC cell line. They also rule out any role of P-gp over-expression as being responsible for these observations in cells with MDR phenotype expression.  相似文献

Transbilayer movement of cholesterol in the human erythrocyte membrane   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
The rate of transbilayer movement of cholesterol was measured in intact human erythrocytes. Suspended erythrocytes were incubated briefly with [3H]cholesterol in ethanol at 4 degrees C, or with liposomes containing [3H]cholesterol over 6 hr at 4 degrees C to incorporate the tracer into the outer leaflet of erythrocyte plasma membranes. The erythrocytes were then incubated at 37 degrees C to allow diffusion of cholesterol across the membrane bilayer. Cells were treated briefly with cholesterol oxidase to convert a portion of the outer leaflet cholesterol to cholestenone, and the specific radioactivity of cholestenone was determined over the time of tracer equilibration. The decrease in specific radioactivity of cholestenone reflected transbilayer movement of [3H]cholesterol. The transbilayer movement of cholesterol had a mean half-time of 50 min at 37 degrees C in cells labeled with [3H]cholesterol in ethanol, and 130 min at 37 degrees C in cells labeled with [3H]cholesterol exchanged from liposomes. The cells were shown, by the absence of hemolysis, to remain intact throughout the assay. The presence of 1 mM Mg2+ in the assay buffer was essential to prevent hemolysis of cells treated with cholesterol oxidase perturbed the cells, resulting in an accelerated rate of apparent transbilayer movement. Our data are also consistent with an asymmetric distribution of cholesterol in erythrocyte membranes, with the majority of cholesterol in the inner leaflet.  相似文献

We previously showed that hypercholesterolemic asymptomatic men had lower erythrocyte vitamin E content, despite normal plasma concentrations compared to normocholesterolemic men. We hypothesized that the reduced erythrocyte vitamin E concentration could be due to an impairment of transfer of vitamin E from plasma lipoproteins. We first developed a model for testing the ability of erythrocytes to accept vitamin E from high-density lipoproteins (HDL) pre-enriched in vitamin E, which allows to measure a net mass transfer of vitamin E from HDL to erythrocytes. Vitamin E-enriched HDL were obtained in controlled conditions of concentration and incubation time with a good reproducibility (CV 相似文献

Exposure of vitamin A acetate in freely dissolved state to γ-radiationin vitro caused a dose dependent degradation accompanied by the formation of new products. The radiation degradation products were separated by chromatography using step gradient elution. The parent molecule, vitamin A acetate, induced negligible haemolysis of erythrocytes. In contrast, the polar products formed by irradiation were found to be potent haemolysing agents. A highly polar product, eluted with methanol revealed maximum haemolytic activity. Acetylation of these products resulted in loss of their haemolytic properties. Similarly, vitamin E acetate, a known stabilizer of the biomembranes, after irradiation yielded products which caused haemolysis of erythrocytes. It was demonstrated that irradiation introduces hydroxyl groups which impart haemolytic properties to the radiation degradation products of vitamin A  相似文献

This work investigated the oxidative injury to human red blood cells (RBCs) by the exposure to exogenous malondialdehyde (MDA), in a physiological environment. When a 10% RBC suspension was incubated in autologous plasma, in the presence of 50 λμM MDA, 30% of MDA entered into the cells. A time-course study showed that MDA caused early (30-120 λmin) and delayed (3-18 λh) effects. MDA caused a fast depletion of reduced glutathione, and loss of the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity, followed by a decrease of HbO 2 . Accumulation of methemoglobin, and formation of small amounts of hemichrome were later evident. Also, an HbO 2 -derived fluorescent product was measured in the membrane. The redox unbalance was followed by structural and functional damage to the membrane, evident as the formation of conjugated diene lipid hydroperoxides, concurrent with a sharp accumulation of MDA, consumption of membrane vitamin E, and egress of K + ions. SDS--PAGE of membrane proteins showed formation of high molecular weight aggregates. In spite of the marked oxidative alterations, the incubation plasma prevented a substantial hemolysis, even after a 18 λh incubation. On the contrary, the exposure of RBCs to 50 λμM MDA in glucose-containing phosphate saline buffer, resulted in a 16% hemolysis within 6 λh. These results indicate that the exposure to MDA causes a rapid intracellular oxidative stress and potentiates oxidative cascades on RBCs, resulting in their dysfunction.  相似文献
