The water-soluble products of the UV-initiated autoxidation of linoleic and linolenic acids emulsified in water were separated into volatile and relatively involatile components, each of which reacted with both thiobarbituric acid (TBA) and peroxidase. The volatile TBA-reactive compound is probably malonaldehyde and the volatile peroxidase-reactive compound is hydrogen peroxide. Additional compounds which absorb UV light were present in the volatile fraction. After thin-layer chromatography of the involatile fraction, reactivity toward TBA and peroxidase was found in the same spot. Approximate molar yields of hydrogen peroxide, malonaldehyde, "hydroperoxides", and other TBA-reactive compounds were estimated. The ratio of "hydroperoxide" to TBA reactivity was lower for linoleic than for linolenic acid. The mass of relatively involatile compounds was about 20 times greater than that predicted from either peroxidase or TBA assays of water extracts of oxidized linolenic acid. The properties of the water extract were similar to those shown by others for the products of prolonged autoxidation (without UV-irradiation) of emulsified methyl linoleate.  相似文献

Experiments were conducted under laboratory and greenhouse conditions to investigate the allelopathic potential of aqueous extracts of dry and fresh leaves of Psidium guava on purslane weed growth and root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita infecting sunflower plants cv. Giza 102. A Petri dish assay showed that the aqueous extracts significantly reduced seedling length of purslane (Portulaca oleracea), with the degree of inhibition being concentration dependent. Greenhouse studies (in 2008 and 2009) indicated greatest significant inhibition in purslane growth as well as number of galls and egg masses of infecting nematode. However, this inhibition was accompanied with increase in sunflower growth and yield. The studies indicated increase in the endogenous contents of total phenols in purslane tissues which correlated with growth inhibition. Chemical analysis indicated increase in the contents of carbohydrates, protein and oil in sunflower seeds. The studies involved analysis of fatty acid composition by GLC which indicated increasing in the percentage of oleic and linoeic acids in sunflower seeds by fresh and dry leaves extract of P. guava. The percentage of linoleic acid and linolenic acid was higher by fresh and dry leaves extract. A high-performance liquid chromatography analysis of P. guava extracts recorded that the ferulic, coumaric, vanelic, chlorogenic, caffiec acids were present.  相似文献

Peroxidation of unconjugated polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linolenic acid proceeds through a free radical chain mechanism and is accompanied by the formation of conjugated dienes such as hydroperoxides. In an investigation of radiation-induced oxidation of aqueous linolenate, we have measured two indexes of peroxidation: (1) conjugated dienes by means of absorption spectroscopy and (2) hydroperoxides by high-pressure liquid chromatography using detection of chemiluminescence. The experimental results indicate a strong effect of the concentration of linolenate on the yields of oxidized products. In addition, this work shows the quantitative production of two kinds of hydroperoxides. The ratio of these hydroperoxides is independent of the radiation dose but is dependent on the linolenate concentration. One hydroperoxide is formed predominantly below the critical micellar concentration (3 mM under our conditions), while the second is observed predominantly when micelles are formed in the aqueous medium. The influence of the composition of the medium on the nature of both hydroperoxides is discussed. [bj163]  相似文献

1. Etiolated seedlings of alfalfa and cucumber evolved n-hexanal from linoleic acid and cis-3-hexenal and trans-2-hexenal from linolenic acid when they were homogenized.

2. The activities for n-hexanal formation from linoleic acid, lipoxygenase and hydro-peroxide lyase were maximum in dry seeds and 1~2 day-old etiolated seedlings of alfalfa, and in 6~7 day-old etiolated seedlings of cucumber.

3. n-Hexanal was produced from linoleic acid and 13-hydroperoxylinoleic acid by the crude extracts of etiolated alfalfa and cucumber seedlings. cis-3-Hexenal and trans-2-hexenal were produced from linolenic acid and 13-hydroperoxylinolenic acid by the crude extracts of etiolated alfalfa and cucumber seedlings. But these extracts, particulariy cucumber one, showed a high isomerizing activity from cis-3-hexenal to trans-2-hexenal.

4. When the C8-aldehydes were produced from linoleic acid and linolenic acid by the crude extracts, formation of hydroperoxides of these C18-fatty acids was observed.

5. When 9-hydroperoxylinoleic acid was used as a substrate, trans-2-nonenal was produced by the cucumber homogenate but not by the alfalfa homogenate.

6. As the enzymes concerned with C6-aldehyde formation, lipoxygenase was partially purified from alfalfa and cucumber seedlings and hydroperoxide lyase, from cucumber seedlings. Lipoxygenase was found in a soluble fraction, but hydroperoxide lyase was in a membrane bound form. Alfalfa lipoxygenase catalyzed formation of 9- and 13-hydroperoxylinoleic acid (35: 65) from linoleic acid and cucumber one, mainly 13-hydroperoxylinoleic acid formation. Alfalfa hydroperoxide lyase catalyzed n-hexanal formation from 13-hydroperoxylinoleic acid, but cucumber one catalyzed formation of n-hexanal and trans-2-nonenal from 13- and 9-hydroperoxylinoleic acid, respectively.

7. From the above results, the biosynthetic pathway for C6-aldehyde formation in etiolated alfalfa and cucumber seedlings is established that C6-aldehydes (n-hexanal, cis-3-hexenal and trans-2-hexenal) are produced from linoleic acid and linolenic acid via their 13-hydroperoxides by lipoxygenase and hydroperoxide lyase.  相似文献

The combined effect of linoleic acid hydroperoxide and gamma-radiation on Ehrlich ascites tumor cells was not additive with regard to the formation of chromosome aberrations. When cells were preincubated in the presence of a subliminal hydroperoxide dose of 2.10(-5) M the number of aberrant cells increased after irradiation.  相似文献

Aqueous solutions of linoleic acid were irradiated in air with gamma-rays of 137Cs. High pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) was been used to separate and measure the production of hydroperoxides. The results obtained after reverse phase chromatography, associated with a microperoxydase for hydroperoxide detection, indicate the presence of two different hydroperoxides. One type of hydroperoxide was the major product obtained when the initial linoleic concentrations were below the critical micellar concentration (2 mM), and the second type was produced when the concentrations were above 2 mM. A further separation carried out on the second hydroperoxide by direct phase HPLC showed that it contains three compounds, mainly HPODE 9 and 13.  相似文献

Homogenates of tomato fruits catalysed the enzymic conversion of linoleic and linolenic acids (but not oleic acid) to C6 aldehydes in low (3–5%) molar yield. Hexanal was formed from linoleic acid; cis-3-hexenal and smaller amounts of trans-2-hexenal were formed from linolenic acid. With the fatty acids as substrates, the major products were fatty acid hydroperoxides (50–80% yield) and the ratio of 9- to 13-hydroperoxides as isolated from an incubation with linoleic acid was at least 95:5 in favour of the 9-hydroperoxide isomer. When the 9- and 13-hydroperoxides of linoleic acid were used as substrates with tomato homogenates, the 13-hydroperoxide was readily cleaved to hexanal in high molar yield (60%) but the 9-hydroperoxide isomer was not converted to cleavage products. Properties of the hydroperoxide cleavage system are described. The results indicate that the C6 aldehydes are formed from C18 polyunsaturated fatty acids in a sequential enzyme system involving lipoxygenase (which preferentially oxygenates at the 9-position) followed by a hydroperoxide cleavage system which is, however, specific for the 13-hydroperoxy isomers.  相似文献

The inactivation of the enzymes by linoleic acid hydroperoxides (LAHPO) was tested in connection with the toxicity of oxidized fat. At the same time, the inhibition of enzyme activities by linoleic acid was also tested. Ribonuclease (RNase), trypsin, chymotrypsin and pepsin which are considered to be simple proteins and not to be SH-enzymes were chosen as the enzymes. RNase was largely inhibited by LAHPO, but the other enzymes were inhibited by linoleic acid as well as LAHPO. The inhibition of each enzyme occurred at different pH. This fact may show that the inhibition occurs by binding of such hydrophobic compounds to the enzyme, and that the surface exposition of hydrophobic region may depend on the pH. Not only the reaction of some specific amino acid residue in the protein molecules with LAHPO, but also the binding of these hydrophobic compounds must be remembered in the mechanism of inhibition.  相似文献

To reveal clues to the function of human plasma glutathione peroxidase (GPx), we investigated its catalytic effectiveness with a variety of hydroperoxides. Comparisons of hydroperoxides as substrates for plasma GPx based on the ratio ofV max /K m were blocked by the limited solubility of the organic hydroperoxides, which prevented kinetic saturation of the enzyme at the chosen glutathione concentration. Therefore, we compared the hydroperoxides by the fold increase in the apparent first-order rate constants of their reactions with glutathione owing to catalysis by plasma GPx. The reductions of aromatic and small hydrophobic hydroperoxides (cumene hydroperoxide,t-amyl hydroperoxide,t-butyl hydroperoxide, paramenthane hydroperoxide) were better catalyzed by plasma GPx than were reductions of the more “physiological” substrates (linoleic acid hydroperoxide, hydrogen peroxide, peroxidized plasma lipids, and oxidized cholesterol).  相似文献

Aspergillus niger was grown for 6 days, and the harvested biomass was homogenized; the resultant supernatant, considered as the crude enzymatic extract, was enriched by ammonium sulfate precipitation. The extract was assayed for its lipoxygenase (LOX) activity using a wide range of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), including linoleic, linolenic and arachidonic acids, as substrates. Two pH maxima were determined at 5.0, 10.5. The Km and Vmax values indicated that the microbial LOX displayed preferential substrate specificity towards linolenic acid at low pH. The microbial LOX demonstrated preferential substrate specificity towards free fatty acids over the acyl esters of linoleic acid. It was shown that the LOX activity of A. niger produced all monohydroperoxy regioisomers of the PUFAs, and there was a predominance of conjugated diene hydroperoxides. Significant production of the unconjugated 10-hydroperoxides of both linoleic and linolenic acids was obtained by the LOX activity. The amounts of 10-hydroperoxides ranged from 15 to 21% of total produced isomers, for linolenic and linoleic acids, respectively. The greatest proportion of the 10-regioisomer was attributed to the maximum activity at pH 5.0. Four major hydroperoxy-eicosatetraenoic acid (HPETE) regioisomers were isolated from the bioconversion of arachidonic acid, including the 8-, 9-, 12- and 15-HPETE, which accounted for approximately 97% of total isomers.  相似文献

The formation of phospholipid hydroperoxides was monitored in human red blood cell (RBC) membranes that had been peroxidized with an azo initiator. Peroxidation of RBC membranes caused a profound decrease in the amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids and concomitantly hydroperoxides, as primary products of peroxidation, appeared in the phospholipids. Hydroperoxides were predominantly generated in choline glycerophospholipid (CGP), while the extent of formation of ethanolamine glycerophospholipid (EGP) hydroperoxides was low and their presence was transient. Hydroxy and hydroperoxy moieties in CGP were identified as 9-hydroxy and 13-hydroxy octadecanoic acid, derived from linoleic acid, by gas chromatography-mass spectrometric analysis. No consistent generation of hydroperoxide from arachidonic acid was evident in CGP. The CGP-hydroperoxide accounted for approximately 76% of linoleic acid consumed during peroxidation of RBC membranes. The prominent generation of phospholipid hydroperoxides was observed in the linoleic acid-rich membranes from rabbit RBC, indicating that the level of linoleic acid in phospholipids determins, in part, the extent of formation of phospholipid hydroperoxides. Aldehydic phospholipids, as secondary products of peroxidation, were detected in oxidized membranes. EGP was the most prominent aldehydic phospholipid, while negligible amounts of aldehydic CGP were formed. This study indicates that the process of oxidation of individual phospholipids clearly differs among phospholipids and depends on the structure of each.  相似文献

A study of the reactivity of HO2/O2- with unsaturated hydroperoxides/peroxides was carried out in a stopped-flow spectrophotometer equipped with an O2--generating plasma lamp. The results show that, in 80% aqueous ethanol solution containing either 0.05 M H2SO4 (for HO2 studies) or 0.005 M KOH (for O2- studies), these oxy-radicals do not react with oleic acid hydroperoxide, linoleic acid hydroperoxide, 1-hydroperoxy-2-cyclooctene, and tert-butyl allyl peroxide. These findings are discussed in the light of conflicting evidence concerning the reaction of HO2/O2- with organic hydroperoxides/peroxides.  相似文献

Manganese lipoxygenase (Mn-LOX) catalyzes the rearrangement of bis-allylic S-hydroperoxides to allylic R-hydroperoxides, but little is known about the reaction mechanism. 1-Linoleoyl-lysoglycerophosphatidylcholine was oxidized in analogy with 18:2n-6 at the bis-allylic carbon with rearrangement to C-13 at the end of lipoxygenation, suggesting a "tail-first" model. The rearrangement of bis-allylic hydroperoxides was influenced by double bond configuration and the chain length of fatty acids. The Gly316Ala mutant changed the position of lipoxygenation toward the carboxyl group of 20:2n-6 and 20:3n-3 and prevented the bis-allylic hydroperoxide of 20:3n-3 but not 20:2n-6 to interact with the catalytic metal. The oxidized form, Mn(III)-LOX, likely accepts an electron from the bis-allylic hydroperoxide anion with the formation of the peroxyl radical, but rearrangement of 11-hydroperoxyoctadecatrienoic acid by Mn-LOX was not reduced in D(2)O (pD 7.5), and aqueous Fe(3+) did not transfer 11S-hydroperoxy-9Z,12Z,15Z-octadecatrienoic acid to allylic hydroperoxides. Mutants in the vicinity of the catalytic metal, Asn466Leu and Ser469Ala, had little influence on bis-allylic hydroperoxide rearrangement. In conclusion, Mn-LOX transforms bis-allylic hydroperoxides to allylic by a reaction likely based on the positioning of the hydroperoxide close to Mn(3+) and electron transfer to the metal, with the formation of a bis-allylic peroxyl radical, beta-fragmentation, and oxygenation under steric control by the protein.  相似文献

Reduction of hydrogen peroxide and organic peroxides (t-butyl hydroperoxide and linoleic acid hydroperoxide) was achieved with homovanillic acid as hydrogen donor in the presence of the triethylenetetramine-Fe3+ complex. By the catalytic action of this complex, homovanillic acid is oxidized to its fluorescent dimer. Based on this reaction a fluorometric method for the measurement of the hydroperoxides mentioned above is described. The method can be extended to the determination of substrate-enzyme systems that produce hydrogen peroxide, e.g., glucose-glucose oxidase. The method allows the determination of substances such as hydrogen peroxide and t-butyl hydroperoxide with an accuracy and precision of less than 3%. Glucose can be determined with similar precision and an accuracy of 4.7%.  相似文献

Tissue extracts of various plants actively bleached chlorophyllin the presence of linoleic or linolenic acid. The activityof lipoxidase (linoleate : oxygen oxidoreductase, E.C. 1.13.1.13 [EC] )was necessary for this process, but our experiements providedno evidence for the participation of hydroperoxide isomerase,as has been suggested by other authors.

Fatty acid hydroperoxide lyase (HPL) is a member of a novel subfamily of cytochrome P450 and catalyzes a cleavage reaction of fatty acid hydroperoxides to form short-chain aldehydes and oxo-acids. A cDNA encoding tomato fruit HPL (LeHPL) was obtained. An active LeHPL was expressed in E. coli and purified. It showed highest activity against the 13-hydroperoxide of linolenic acid, followed by that of linoleic acid. 9-Hydroperoxides were poor substrates. The absorption spectrum of the purified LeHPL in the native form was similar to that of most P450s although a CO-adduct having a lambda max at 450 nm could not be obtained. LeHPL activity is reversibly inhibited by nordihydroguaiaretic acid, while salicylic acid irreversibly inhibited it. LeHPL is kinetically inactivated by fatty acid hydroperoxides, especially 9-hydroperoxides. The inactivation is prevented by inhibitors of LeHPL. Thus, HPL catalytic activity is thought to be essential to its inactivation. During the inactivation, an abolition of the Soret band was evident, indicating that inactivation is caused mainly by degradation of the prosthetic heme in LeHPL.  相似文献

The effect of hydroxyperoxyoctadecadienoic acid, e.g. 13-hydroperoxy-cis,9,trans-11-octadecadienoic acid, on the autooxidation of linoleic acid induced by superoxide radical was examined in a system containing xanthine oxidase, acetaldehyde, and diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid dissolved in an aqueous phosphate buffer containing 10% ethanol. The superoxide radical is required for autooxidation, as shown by essentially complete inhibition on the addition of superoxide dismutase. Pure linoleic acid was not readily oxidized, but the addition of lipid hydroperoxide markedly stimulated the autooxidation. Addition of 2.8 microM FeCl3 did not produce an increase in the rate of xanthine oxidase-induced autooxidation. Spontaneous autooxidation, a process slower than xanthine oxidase-induced autooxidation, was detectable on the time scale of these observations but was slower than the xanthine oxidase-induced autooxidation. Initiation of linoleic acid autooxidation is postulated to result from a reaction between superoxide and lipid hydroperoxide. The nature of this reaction is uncertain, but it does not appear to depend on iron catalysis.  相似文献

Reaction of radicals in the presence of O2, or singlet oxygen, with some amino acids, peptides, and proteins yields hydroperoxides. These species are key intermediates in chain reactions and protein damage. They can be detected in cells and are poorly removed by enzymatic defenses. Previously we have shown that peptide and protein hydroperoxides react rapidly with thiols, with this resulting in inactivation of some thiol-dependent enzymes. In light of these data, we hypothesized that inactivation of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), by hydroperoxides present on oxidized proteins, may contribute to cellular and tissue dysfunction by modulation of phosphorylation-dependent cell signaling. We show here that PTPs in cell lysates, and purified PTP-1B, are inactivated by amino acid, peptide, and protein hydroperoxides in a concentration- and structure-dependent manner. Protein hydroperoxides are particularly effective, with inhibition occurring with greater efficacy than with H2O2. Inactivation involves reaction of the hydroperoxide with the conserved active-site Cys residue of the PTPs, as evidenced by hydroperoxide consumption measurements and a diminution of this effect on blocking the Cys residue. This inhibition of PTPs, by oxidized proteins containing hydroperoxide groups, may contribute to cellular dysfunction and altered redox signaling in systems subject to oxidative stress.  相似文献

A system was designed for chemiluminescent measurement of lipid hydroperoxides by their site-specific reaction in sodium dodecylsulfate micelles. Ferrous ion-induced decomposition of lipid hydroperoxides in the sodium dodecylsulfate micelles resulted in strong chemiluminescence of the Cypridina luciferin analog, 2-methyl-6-phenyl-3,7-dihydroimidazo[1,2-alpha]pyrazin-3-one (CLA). After addition of ferrous sulfate to the micelles containing lipid hydroperoxide and luciferin, the chemiluminescence intensity reached a maximum rapidly and then decreased. The sequence of this reaction was elucidated by theoretical analysis, which demonstrated that the maximum chemiluminescence intensity is proportional to the initial concentration of hydroperoxide. Good linear relationships were observed between the maximum counts of chemiluminescence and the amounts of hydroperoxides of linoleic acid, phosphatidylcholine, choresterol (5 alpha), cumene and tert-butyl and hydrogen peroxide. This chemiluminescence method was simple and sensitive enough to detect picomole levels of linoleic acid and phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxides.  相似文献

The unsaturated fatty acids that rapidly accumulate during ischemia are thought to participate in inducing irreversible brain injury, especially because they are highly susceptible to peroxidation when the tissue is reoxygenated. Our hypothesis was that peroxidation products of unsaturated fatty acids interfere with the reacylation of synaptic phospholipids, a process essential to membrane repair. To test this hypothesis, we have examined the effect of fatty acid hydroperoxides on incorporation of [1-14C]arachidonic acid into synaptosomal phospholipids. Rat forebrain synaptosomes were incubated with arachidonic or linoleic acid hydroperoxides and [14C]arachidonate, and then lipids were extracted and separated by TLC. Both hydroperoxides inhibited [14C]arachidonate incorporation into phospholipids in a concentration-dependent manner, with 50% inhibition occurring at less than 25 microM hydroperoxide, in both the absence and presence of exogenous lysophospholipids. The inhibition was of the non-competitive type. It is concluded that (a) low levels of fatty acid hydroperoxides inhibit the reacylation of synaptosomal phospholipids, and (b) this inhibition may constitute an important mechanism whereby peroxidative processes contribute to irreversible brain damage.  相似文献
