The reactions of the cysteine, glutathione and penicillamine thiyl radicals with oxygen and their parent thiols in frozen aqueous solutions have been elucidated through electron spin resonance spectroscopy. The major sulfur radicals observed are: (1) thiyl radicals, RS.; (2) disulfide radical anions. RSSR-.; (3) perthiyl radicals, RSS. and upon introduction of oxygen; (4) sulfinyl radicals, RSO., where R represents the remainder of the cysteine, glutathione or penicillamine moiety. The radical product observed depends on the pH, concentration of thiol, and presence or absence of molecular oxygen. We find that the sulfinyl radical is a ubiquitous intermediate in the free radical chemistry of these important biological compounds, and also show that peroxyl radical attack on thiols may lead to sulfinyl radicals. We elaborate the observed reaction sequences that lead to sulfinyl radicals, and, using 17O isotopic substitution studies, demonstrate that the oxygen atom in sulfinyl radicals originates from dissolved molecular oxygen. In addition, the glutathione thiyl radical is found to abstract hydrogen from the alpha-carbon position on the cysteine residue of glutathione to form a carbon-centered radical. 相似文献

NO synthesis and its regulation in the arachidonic-acid-stimulated rat polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
Nitric oxide (NO) synthesis and free radical generation from polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) play an important role in several pathological conditions. In the present study, regulation of NO synthesis has been investigated in the unstimulated and arachidonic-acid (AA)-stimulated rat PMNs. L-Citrulline formation or nitrite content was used as a marker of NO synthesis, while AA-induced free radical generation was assessed by flow cytometry using a dye, 2('),7(')-dichlorofluoreseindiacetate. L-Citrulline formation in the unstimulated PMNs increased in a time-dependent manner for up to 120 min. The increase was significantly less (25-55%) in AA-stimulated PMNs at all the time points. AA-induced free radical generation was maximum during the first 15 min followed by a time-dependent decrease. Interestingly, similar experiments under hyperoxic conditions did not exhibit any decrease in L-citrulline and nitrite formation after AA stimulation even though the free radical generation further increased. Scavenging or inhibition of free radicals by several types of interventions increased NO generation from AA-stimulated PMNs. The results of the present study suggest that the availability of oxygen, a common substrate for both NADPH oxidase and NOS, can inversely affect the synthesis of NO and PMNs seem to prefer oxygen utilization over NO synthesis for free radical generation. 相似文献

Lipid peroxyl radicals resulting from the peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids by soybean lipoxygenase were directly detected by the method of rapid mixing, continuous-flow electron spin resonance spectroscopy. When air-saturated borate buffer (pH 9.0) containing linoleic acid or arachidonate acid was mixed with lipoxygenase, fatty acid-derived peroxyl free radicals were readily detected; these radicals have a characteristic g-value of 2.014. An organic free radical (g = 2.004) was also detected; this may be the carbon-centered fatty acid free radical that is the precursor of the peroxyl free radical. The ESR spectrum of this species was not resolved, so the identification of this free radical was not possible. Fatty acids without at least two double bonds (e.g. stearic acid and oleic acid) did not give the corresponding peroxyl free radicals, suggesting that the formation of bisallylic carbon-centered radicals precedes peroxyl radical formation. The 3.8-G doublet feature of the fatty acid peroxyl spectrum was proven (by selective deuteration) to be a hyperfine coupling due to a gamma-hydrogen that originated as a vinylic hydrogen of arachidonate. Arachidonate peroxyl radical formation was shown to be dependent on the substrate, active lipoxygenase, and molecular oxygen. Antioxidants are known to protect polyunsaturated fatty acids from peroxidation by scavenging peroxyl radicals and thus breaking the free radical chain reaction. Therefore, the peroxyl signal intensity from micellar arachidonate solutions was monitored as a function of the antioxidant concentration. The reaction of the peroxyl free radical with Trolox C was shown to be 10 times slower than that with vitamin E. The vitamin E and Trolox C phenoxyl radicals that resulted from scavenging the peroxyl radical were also detected. 相似文献

The kinetics of copper-catalyzed autoxidation of cysteine and its derivatives were investigated using oxygen consumption, spectroscopy and hydroxyl radical detection by fluorescence of a coumarin probe. The process has complex two-phase kinetics. During the first phase a stoichiometric amount of oxygen (0.25 moles per mole of thiol) is consumed without production of hydroxyl radicals. In the second reaction phase excess oxygen is consumed in a hydrogen peroxide-mediated process with significant ·OH production. The reaction rate in the second phase is decreased for cysteine derivatives with a free aminogroup and increased for compounds with a modified aminogroup. The kinetic data suggest the catalytic action of copper in the form of a cysteine complex. The reaction mechanism consists of two simultaneous reactions (superoxide-dependent and peroxide-dependent) in the first phase, and peroxide-dependent in the second phase. The second reaction phase begins after oxidation of free thiol. This consists of a Fenton-type reaction between cuprous-cysteinyl complex and following oxidation of cysteinyl radical to sulfonate with the consumption of excessive oxygen and significant production of hydroxyl radicals. 相似文献

Research in smoke inhalation has established that free radicals are produced from gases released during combustion and these species impair lung function. Using spin traps and their adducts in an animal model free radicals were measured. Various hyperbaric oxygen regimens were tested in an attempt to attenuate pulmonary damage caused by free radical reactions. Our data demonstrated that persistent oxygen- and carbon-centered free radicals are detectable in intravascular fluids after smoke inhalation. The smoke inhalation model showed however, clearing of spin trap adducts one hour after smoke exposure. Other researchers have found that when 100% oxygen is given at 1 atmosphere absolute (ATA) for 1 h, free radicals were not detectable. However, oxygen given at 2.5 ATA does produce detectable free radicals. With continued exposure at this pressure, the levels of free radicals increase for up to 60min. This study suggests that the level of free radical induced oxygen toxicity may be a function of oxygen pressure and duration of oxygen exposure. 相似文献

Striking differences in the prevalence of coal workers' pneumoconiosis (CWP) exist between different coal mine regions. The major factors responsible for the observed regional differences in CWP have not yet been identified. In the present study, chemical reactivity of the carbon-centered free radicals in coals and lung tissues, as well as ferrous iron in the coals, were studied by ESR techniques. The ESR spectra clearly demonstrated the presence of at least two types of carbon-centered free radical species, which might respectively attribute to the macromolecular phase and the molecular phase of coal. Grinding produced free radicals in coals. Exposure of freshly ground coal to air for 28 h induced a slight increase of free radicals for most of the coals, and a slight decrease after 4 months' exposure. The lung tissue samples of coal workers deceased of CWP showed similar ESR spectra as coal samples, and these radicals were highly stable in the lung. After incubation of coals with glutathione, hydrogen peroxide, sodium formate or oxygen, the coal sample from the Gardanne mine which has never induced CWP, and thus is the least hazardous coal, showed the most significant change in the carbon-centered free radical concentration. No significant changes were observed among other coals reported to induce CWP. On the other hand, we found that the coals released different amounts of Fe2+ in an acidic medium. Interestingly, the prevalence of CWP correlates positively with the released Fe2+ content in these coals and with the amount of oxygen radicals produced by the interaction of Fe2+ with O2 in the acidified coal filtrates. Our studies indicate that the carbon-centered free radicals may not be biologically relevant to coal dust-induced pneumoconiosis, whereas the acid soluble Fe2+, which may be dissolved in the phagolysosomes of macrophages, can then lead to Fe2+-induced oxidative stress and eventual CWP development. 相似文献

The mechanism of N-dealkylation by peroxidases of the Ca2+ indicator quin2 and analogs was investigated and compared with the mechanism of N-dealkylation of some N-methyl-substituted aromatic amines. Nitrogen-centered cation radicals were detected by ESR spectroscopy for all the compounds studied. Further oxidation of the nitrogen-centered cation radicals, however, was dependent upon the structure of the radical formed. In the case of quin2 and analogs, a carbon-centered radical could be detected using the spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide. By using the spin trap 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane (tert-nitrosobutane), it was determined that the carbon-centered radical was formed due to loss of a carboxylic acid group. This indicated that bond breakage most likely occurred through a rearrangement reaction. Furthermore, extensive oxygen consumption was detected, which was in agreement with the formation of carbon-centered radicals, as they avidly react with molecular oxygen. Thus, reaction of the carbon-centered radical with oxygen most likely led to the formation of a peroxyl radical. The peroxyl radical decomposed into superoxide that was spin trapped by 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide and an unstable iminium cation. The iminium cation would subsequently hydrolyze to the monomethyl amine and formaldehyde. In the case of N-methyl-substituted aromatic amines, carbon-centered radicals were not detected during the peroxidase-catalyzed oxidation of these compounds. Thus, rearrangement of the nitrogen-centered radical did not occur. Furthermore, little or no oxygen consumption was detected, whereas formaldehyde was formed in all cases. These results indicated that the N-methyl-substituted amines were oxidized by a mechanism different from the mechanism found for quin2 and analogs. 相似文献

The o-, m-, and p-nitrobenzyl chlorides are reduced aerobically and anaerobically by NADPH and rat hepatic microsomes. Under aerobic conditions, these nitro anion radicals reduce oxygen to superoxide as demonstrated by oxygen consumption and spin trapping of superoxide with 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide. At low oxygen concentration, the p- and o-nitro anion radicals undergo intramolecular electron transfer and decompose to carbon-centered nitrobenzyl radicals, which can be spin-trapped with t-nitrosobutane. The p-nitrobenzyl (o-nitrobenzyl) radical adduct was characterized by a nitrogen hyperfine splitting of 16.5 G (17.1 G) and two equivalent beta-hydrogen hyperfine splittings of 10.6 G (14.4 G). The spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide also yields adducts characteristic of carbon-centered free radicals. This unimolecular decomposition is much faster than the disproportionation decay, which is characteristic of most nitro anion radicals, and the primary o- and p-nitrobenzyl chloride anion radicals never achieve detectable concentrations. The nitrobenzyl radical trapping is not inhibited by metyrapone or CO. In contrast, the m-nitrobenzyl anion radical does achieve a detectable steady-state concentration, which is increased 20% by either metyrapone or a CO atmosphere. 相似文献

Identification of free radicals in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion by spin trapping with nitrone DMPO 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The spin trapping ESR technique was applied to investigate oxygen-derived radicals in ischemic and post-ischemic rat hearts. Using 5,5'-dimethyl-l-pyrroline-N-oxide, carbon-centered radicals were identified during ischemia and oxy-radical adducts (superoxide anion radical, O.-2 and hydroxyl radicals, .OH) in post-ischemic rat heart. The formation of these spin adducts was inhibited by superoxide dismutase, suggesting that superoxide plays a role in the adducts' formation. The results demonstrate that oxygen derived free radicals are important byproducts of abnormal oxidative metabolism during myocardial ischemic and reperfusion injuries. 相似文献

Free radical metabolites of L-cysteine oxidation 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The oxidation of L-cysteine by horseradish peroxidase in the presence of oxygen forms a thiyl free radical as demonstrated with the spin-trapping ESR technique. Reactions of this thiyl free radical result in oxygen consumption, which is inhibited by the spin trap 5,5'-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide. Cysteine sulfinic acid, a cysteine metabolite, is a poorer substrate for horseradish peroxidase than cysteine and is oxidized to form both sulfur-centered and carbon-centered free radicals. 相似文献

The interaction between nitrogen oxides and hemoglobin and endothelium-derived relaxing factor 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Among nitrogen oxides, NO and NO2 are free radicals and show a variety of biological effects. NO2 is a strongly oxidizing toxicant, although NO, not oxidizing as NO2, is toxic in that it interacts with hemoglobin to form nitrosyl-and methemoglobin. Nitrosylhemoglobin shows a characteristic electron spin resonance (ESR) signal due to an odd electron localized on the nitrogen atom of NO and reacts with oxygen to yield nitrate and methemoglobin, which is rapidly reduced by methemoglobin reductase in red cells. NO was found to inhibit the reductase activity. Part of NO inhaled in the body is oxidized by oxygen to NO2, which easily dissolves in water and converts to nitrite. The nitrite oxyhemoglobin autocatalytically after a lag. The mechanism of the oxidation, particularly the involvement of superoxide, was controversial. The stoichiometry of the reaction has now been established using nitrate ion electrode and a methemoglobin free radical was detected by ESR during the oxidation. Complete inhibition of the autocatalysis by aniline or aminopyrine suggests that the radical catalyzes conversion of nitrite to NO2, which oxidizes oxyhemoglobin. Recently NO was shown to be one of endothelium- derived relaxing factors and the relaxation induced by the factor was inhibited by hemoglobin and potentiated by superoxide dismutase. 相似文献

The decomposition of organic hydroperoxides as catalyzed by chloroperoxidase was investigated with electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. Tertiary peroxyl radicals were directly detected by ESR from incubations of tert-butyl hydroperoxide or cumene hydroperoxide with chloroperoxidase at pH 6.4. Peroxyl, alkoxyl, and carbon-centered free radicals from tertiary hydroperoxide/chloroperoxidase systems were successfully trapped by the spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline N-oxide, whereas alkoxyl radicals were not detected in the ethyl hydroperoxide/chloroperoxidase system. The carbon-centered free radicals were further characterized by spin-trapping studies with tert-nitrosobutane. Oxygen evolution measured by a Clark oxygen electrode was detected for all the hydroperoxide/chloroperoxidase systems. The classical peroxidase mechanism is proposed to describe the formation of peroxyl radicals. In the case of tertiary peroxyl radicals, their subsequent self-reactions result in the formation of alkoxyl free radicals and molecular oxygen. beta-Scission and internal hydrogen atom transfer reactions of the alkoxyl free radicals lead to the formation of various carbon-centered free radicals. In the case of the primary ethyl peroxyl radicals, decay through the Russell pathway forms molecular oxygen. 相似文献

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

Free radical scavenging efficiency of Nano-Se in vitro 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
In this study, we showed that smaller size particles of Nano-Se have better scavenging effects on the following free radicals: carbon-centered free radicals (R*) generated from 2,2'-azo-bis-(2-amidinopropane) hydrochloride (AAPH), the relatively stable free radical 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryhydrazyl (DPPH), the superoxide anion (O2*-) generated from the xanthine/xanthine oxidase (X/XO) system, singlet oxygen (1O2) generated by irradiated hemoporphyrin. Furthermore, the three sizes of Nano-Se studied also show protective effects against the oxidation of DNA. The three samples all have potential size-dependent characteristics on scavenging the free radicals. Although in this study we regarded Nano-Se as a whole without considering interactions between BSA and the red selenium nano-particles, there is the possibility that the apparent free radical scavenging effects may be partially contributed by such interactions. 相似文献

Cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2) is believed to induce neuronal oxidative stress via production of radicals. While oxygen radicals are not directly involved in COX-2-catalytic cycle, superoxide anion radicals have been repeatedly reported to play a critical role in COX-2-associated oxidative stress. To resolve the controversy, we characterized production of free radicals in PC12 cells in which COX-2 expression was manipulated either genetically or by direct protein transfection and compared them with those generated by a recombinant COX-2 in a cell-free system. Using spin-traps alpha-(4-pyridyl-1-oxide)-N-t-butylnitrone, 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide and 4-((9-acridinecarbonyl) amino)-2,2,6,6- tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (Ac-Tempo), we observed arachidonic acid (AA)-dependent production of carbon-centered radicals by heme-reconstituted recombinant COX-2. No oxygen radicals or thiyl radicals have been detected. COX-2 also catalyzed AA-dependent one-electron co-oxidation of ascorbate to ascorbate radicals. Next, we used two different approaches of COX-2 expression in cells, PCXII cells which express isopropyl-1-thio-beta-D-galactopyranoside inducible COX-2, and PC12 cells transfected with COX-2 using a protein delivery reagent, Chariot. In both models, COX-2-dependent AA-induced generation of carbon-centered radicals was documented using spin-traps and Ac-Tempo. No oxygen radical formation was detected in COX-2-transfected cells by either spin-traps or fluorogenic probe, dihydroethidium. In the presence of ascorbate, AA-induced COX-2-dependent ascorbate radicals were detected. AA caused a significant and selective oxidation of one of the major phospholipids, phosphatidylserine (PS). PS was not a direct substrate for COX-2 but was co-oxidized in the presence of AA. The radical generation and PS oxidation were inhibited by COX-2 inhibitors, niflumic acid, nimesulide, or NS-398. Thus, COX-2 generated carbon-centered radicals but not oxygen radicals or thiyl radicals are responsible for oxidative stress in AA-challenged PC12 cells overexpressing COX-2. 相似文献

Two classes of the free radical Maillard intermediates, the pyrazine cation radical and the carbon-centered radicals, are detected in the reaction of Glc (glucose)/Gly (glycine) by electron spin resonance and spin trapping technique. Profile of the generation of the pyrazine cation radical in the reaction with different ratios of the reactants was found to be similar to that of the formation of mutagens in the subsequent reaction with creatinine. By contrast, profile of the generation of the carbon-centered radicals was not consistent with that of the mutagen formation. Thiol antioxidants and unsaturated fatty acids (or their esters) effectively scavenged the pyrazine cation radical generated in the reaction of Glc/Gly, and inhibited the formation of the mutagens in the reaction of Glc/Gly and creatinine. Ethanol, a sulfide and a saturated fatty acid were not effective to scavenge the pyrazine cation radical and did not inhibit the mutagen formation. The pyrazine cation radical rather than the carbon-centered radicals may play an important role in the mutagen formation. Thiol antioxidants and unsaturated fatty acids can be evaluated as inhibitors of the pyrazine cation radical-derived formation of the mutagens. 相似文献

Carbon-centered free radical intermediates in the hematin- and ram seminal vesicle-catalyzed decomposition of fatty acid hydroperoxides 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Heme-catalyzed decomposition of unsaturated hydroperoxy fatty acids has been proposed to proceed via carbon-centered free radicals (delocalized at positions C11, C12, and C13 for 15-hydroperoxy-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-HPETE). The stable products are usually epoxy fatty acids and epoxy alcohols. Hydroperoxides from arachidonic acid can decompose via this mechanism to form leukotrienes of potential biological significance and can catalyze the epoxidation of proximal carcinogens to ultimate carcinogenic metabolites. We have used electron spin resonance spin-trapping techniques to detect carbon-centered radicals formed by heme- or ram seminal vesicle-catalyzed decomposition of 15-HPETE. For both systems we detect both a short- and a long-lived radical adduct. We proposed that these radical adducts are derived from C11 and C13 carbon-centered free radicals generated in the decomposition of 15-HPETE. 相似文献

Mechanisms based on one-electron oxidation appear incomplete in explaining cellular radiosensitization by nitroaromatic compounds such as misonidazole. Evidence is presented for a novel mechanism that may be involved in enhancing DNA strand breakage due to a variety of agents, including ionizing radiation, that generate carbon-centered radicals on DNA deoxyribose. Under anaerobic conditions the carbon-centered radical generated selectively at C-5' of deoxyribose of thymidylate residues in DNA by the antitumor antibiotic neocarzinostatin reacts with misonidazole to produce a DNA damage product in the form of 3'-(formyl phosphate)-ended DNA. In an 18O-transfer experiment we find that the carbonyl oxygen of the activated formyl moiety (trapped as formyl-Tris) is derived from the nitro group oxygen of misonidazole. This result strongly supports a mechanism in which a nitroxide radical adduct, formed by the addition of misonidazole to the radical at C-5' of deoxyribose, cleaves between the N and O so as to form an oxy radical precursor of the formyl moiety and a two-electron reduction species of misonidazole. 相似文献
