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

Oxidative stress resulting from an imbalance between pro-oxidants and anti-oxidants seems to play an important role in human breast carcinogenesis. There are conflicting reports regarding the tissue levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), ascorbic acid and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in breast cancer patients whereas few blood values have been reported. The present study was carried out to observe the changes in serum MDA, serum SOD and plasma ascorbic acid with the stage-wise progression of the disease. Serum MDA and serum SOD levels were found to be increased gradually from Stage I to Stage IV as compared to control group (p < 0.001). The maximum rise was in Stage IV patients. In contrast, mean plasma ascorbic acid levels were low in all stages compared to control group (p < 0.001). The decrease was more pronounced in Stage III and Stage IV. The study would be of immense help for establishing blood based biochemical marker in breast cancer patients. 相似文献

Halothane-induced lipid peroxidation in NADPH-reduced liver microsomes from phenobarbital-pretreated male rats was studied under defined steady state oxygen partial pressures (Po2). Under anaerobic conditions, as well as at a Po2 above 10 mm Hg no halothane-induced formation of malondialdehyde was detected. At a Po2 below 10 mm Hg, however, with a maximum near 1 mm Hg oxygen, significant halothane-induced malondialdehyde formation was found. This evidence supports the hypothesis that halothane can induce lipid peroxidation. The Po2 (i) must be low enough to permit the reductive formation of . CF3 CHCl-radicals but (ii), it must be high enough to promote formation of lipid peroxides. 相似文献

The role of plasmalogens in iron-induced lipid peroxidation was investigated in two liposomal systems. The first consisted of total brain phospholipids with and without plasmalogens, and the second of phosphatidylethanolamine/phosphatidylcholine liposomes with either diacyl- or alkenylacyl-phosphatidylethanolamine. By measuring thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, oxygen consumption, fatty acids and aldehydes, we show that plasmalogens effectively protect polyunsaturated fatty acids from oxidative damage, and that the vinyl ether function of plasmalogens is consumed simultaneously. Furthermore, the lack of lag phase, the increased antioxidant efficiency with time, and the experiments with lipid- and water-soluble azo compounds, indicate that plasmalogens probably interfere with the propagation rather than the initiation of lipid peroxidation, and that the antioxidative effect cannot be related to iron chelation. 相似文献

Endotoxin increases hepatic susceptibility to lipid peroxidation: a possible role of iron 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible mechanism by which endotoxin enhances peroxidative damage to membrane lipids. Male B6C3 mice were treated with endotoxin intraperitoneally 0 or 20 mg/kg body weight for 24 h. Freshly prepared liver homogenate was incubated with either 1-5 mM of reduced glutathione (GSH), glucose, H(2)O(2), ascorbic acid (AA), FeSO(4), FeCl(3), EDTA, FeCl(3) plus AA, AA plus EDTA or EDTA plus FeCl(3) in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.0, or PBS, at 37 degrees C for 60 min. The levels of lipid peroxidation products, thiobarbituric acid reactants (TBAR), were significantly higher in the liver of endotoxin-treated mice, and the values were markedly increased following incubation. Compared to PBS, incubation with H(2)O(2), FeCl(3), FeSO(4), and AA, but not glucose, significantly enhanced TBAR formation. The greatest increase of TBAR was found when AA and FeCl(3) were added together. On the other hand, EDTA and GSH inhibited the formation of TBAR during incubation. When added before AA, EDTA completely inhibited the peroxidative effect of AA or FeSO4, and when added subsequent to AA, EDTA partially prevented the adverse effect of AA. The results obtained suggest that ionic iron plays an important role in initiating endotoxin-induced peroxidative damage to membrane lipids, and that AA may be involved in releasing iron from its protein complex and/or maintaining ionic iron in a reduced or catalytic state. 相似文献

The role of iron in the initiation of lipid peroxidation 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Iron is required for the initiation of lipid peroxidation. Evidence is presented that lipid peroxidation requires both Fe3+ and Fe2+, perhaps with oxygen to form a Fe3+-dioxygen-Fe2+ complex. Other mechanisms of initiation, mostly involving the iron-catalyzed formation of hydroxyl radical, are described and discussed from both theoretical and experimental view points. 相似文献

A concept on the mechanism of stress response is substantiated proceeding from the data available in literature and obtained from the author's research made on the radiation stress model. The conception envisages that products of lipid peroxidation (LPO) appear as primary (under direct effect of a stress factor on tissues) and secondary (as a consequence of high- and long-term catecholamine++) mediators. Mobilization of stress-realizing systems in that process is regarded as an adequate response of the auto-oxidative++ system to the primary activation of LPO. Transformation of catecholamines into the factor of LPO stimulation (secondary) is a result of an increase in the relative role of the quinoid way to transform catecholamines in the case of their high concentration. Radical intermediates of the quinoid metabolism appear as LPO initiators. An important pathogenetic role of LPO activation in the stress mechanism substantiates expedience to use antioxidants as agents for prophylaxis and early treatment of stress-factor injuries. 相似文献

The role of iron in the peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids is reviewed, especially with respect to the involvement of oxygen radicals. The hydroxyl radical can be generated by a superoxide-driven Haber-Weiss reaction or by Fenton's reaction; and the hydroxyl radical can initiate lipid peroxidation. However, lipid peroxidation is frequently insensitive to hydroxyl radical scavengers or superoxide dismutase. We propose that the hydroxyl radical may not be involved in the peroxidation of membrane lipids, but instead lipid peroxidation requires both Fe2+ and Fe3+. The inability of superoxide dismutase to affect lipid peroxidation can be explained by the fact that the direct reduction of iron can occur, exemplified by rat liver microsomal NADPH-dependent lipid peroxidation. Catalase can be stimulatory, inhibitory or without affect because H2O2 may oxidize some Fe2+ to form the required Fe3+, or, alternatively, excess H2O2 may inhibit by excessive oxidation of the Fe2+. In an analogous manner reductants can form the initiating complex by reduction of Fe3+, but complete reduction would inhibit lipid peroxidation. All of these redox reactions would be influenced by iron chelation. 相似文献

The relationship between the cholesterol (Ch) content and the concentration of lipid peroxidation (LPO) products in activated platelets and the effect of these parameters on the structure-function characteristics of platelet membranes were studied. It was found that esterified Ch activates free radical processes occurring in platelets. Nonesterified Ch does not induce the production of primary products of LPO (dienoic conjugates) but promotes the accumulation of a secondary LPO metabolite, malonic dialdehyde, this reaction being mediated via indirect mechanisms. The higher (in comparison with normal) orderliness and orientation of membranes in platelets reflect the increase in the concentration of dienoic conjugates and nonesterified Ch. The observed differences in the aggregability of platelets are due to the changes in the Ch content as well as to the "rigidity" of blood platelets. 相似文献

Spectrophotometric changes in the extent of NADPH, but not NADH, reduction of microsomal cytochrome b5 are correlated with the utilization of oxygen and the accumulation of lipid peroxidation products. The results suggest that NADPH-cytochrome b5 reductase (NADPH-cytochrome c reductase) participates in the reduction of obligatory ferric chelates to their ferrous form prior to the initiation of lipid peroxidation. Further, an increased oxidation of cytochrome b5 observed only in the presence of peroxidation products implicates a peroxidase activity associated with b5 in the microsomal electron transport chain. 相似文献

The organomercury compounds RHgX and R(2)Hg are broad-spectrum biocidal agents acting via diverse mechanisms in biological systems. Despite the enormous amount of studies carried out in last decades to elucidate the detailed mechanisms of organomercurials toxicity their biomolecular mode of action is still under debate. Among various toxicity mechanisms the action of RHgX and R(2)Hg at the membrane level due to the lipophilic properties of their molecules is discussed. Organomercurials are supposed to induce membrane associated oxidative stress in living organism through different mechanisms including the enhancement of the lipid peroxidation and intracellular generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), H(2)O(2), O(2)(-), HO(). The perturbation of antioxidative defense system and the peroxidation of unsaturated fatty acids in membrane lipid bilayer are consequences of this impact. On the other hand, the involvement of organomercurials in radical and redox biochemical processes is manifested in carbon to metal bond cleavage that leads to the generation of reactive organic radicals R(). This pathway is discussed as one of the multiple mechanisms of organomercurials toxicity. The goal of this review is to present recent results in the studies oriented towards the role of organomercurials in the xenobiotic-mediated enhancement of radical production and hence in the promotion of lipids peroxidation. The application of natural and synthetic antioxidants as detoxification agents is presented. 相似文献

Irradiation with u.v. light of aerobic aqueous media containing both rabbit liver microsomal fraction and 4-chloroaniline results in N-oxidation of the arylamine. The reaction is severely blocked by exhaustive extraction with organic solvents of the microsomal membranes to remove lipids. Further, scavengers of OH. and O2.-impair the photochemical process. These findings suggest that the observed phenomenon may be closely associated with light-induced lipid peroxidation. Indeed, N-oxidation of 4-chloroaniline is fully preserved when either phospholipid liposomes or dispersed linoleic acid substitute for intact microsomal fraction. Co-oxidation of the amine substrate occurs during iron/ascorbate-promoted lipid peroxidation also, but H2O2 or free OH. radicals do not appear to be involved. Cumene hydroperoxide-sustained rabbit liver microsomal turnover of the amine generates N-oxy product via O2-dependent and -independent pathways; propagation of lipid peroxidation is presumed to govern the former route. Lipid hydroperoxides, either exogenously added to rabbit liver microsomal suspensions or enzymically formed from arachidonic acid in ram seminal-vesicle microsomal preparations, support N-oxidation of 4-chloroaniline. The significance, in arylamine activation, of lipid peroxidation in certain extrahepatic tissues exhibiting but low mono-oxygenase activity is discussed. 相似文献

Oxidative stress is considered to be implicated in the pathophysiology of breast cancers. In this study we investigated the level of oxidative stress and antioxidant (AO) status in the blood of breast cancer patients of different ages. The level of lipid hydroperoxides (LP) was measured in blood plasma and the activities of copper, zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and glutathione reductase (GR) enzymes, as well as the level of total glutathione (GSH) and CuZnSOD protein were measured in blood cells of breast cancer patients and age-matched healthy subjects. Our results showed that breast carcinoma is related to increase of lipid peroxidation in plasma with concomitant decrease of AO defense capacity in blood cells, which becomes more pronounced during aging of the patients. Suppression of CuZnSOD activity related to breast cancer is most likely caused by decreased de novo synthesis of this enzyme. Similar patterns of suppression in CuZnSOD and CAT activities related to aging were recorded both in controls and patients. Age-related decrease in CuZnSOD activity seems not to be caused by altered protein levels of this enzyme. Suppression of AO enzymes associated with breast cancer and aging is most likely the cause of increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Our results indicate significant role of oxidative-induced injury in the breast carcinogenesis, particularly during the later stages of aging. Overall, our data support the importance of endogenous AOs in the etiology of breast cancer across all levels of predicted risk. 相似文献

The involvement of phospholipase(s) A in lipid peroxidation of rat liver microsomes was investigated by: (a) determining the effects of phospholipase A inhibitors (p-bromophenylacyl bromide, chlorpromazine, mepacrine) on the accumulation of thiobarbituric acid reactivity or on levels of oxidized phospholipids in response to selected oxidative stimuli and (b) measurement of phospholipase A activities in response to these agents. Lipid peroxidation in response to various peroxidation systems was inhibited completely by exposure of microsomes to p-bromophenylacyl bromide (250 microM). The effectiveness of p-bromophenylacyl bromide was dependent on the presence of glutathione (200 microM) in preincubation mixtures. Chlorpromazine (100 microM) and mepacrine (100 microM) also effectively inhibited peroxidation, and their potency was independent of glutathione. The accumulation of oxidized phospholipids in response to the potent peroxidation stimulus alloxan/ferrous ion was similarly inhibited by p-bromophenylacyl bromide, although the level of oxidized phospholipid in response to the initiator ADP/ferrous ion was not affected. Microsomal phospholipase A1 activity, assessed using a liposomal substrate, was substantially enhanced by promoters of lipid peroxidation. Phospholipase A2 activity was not detected using a liposomal substrate but was evident using radiolabeled microsomes as endogenous substrate and was enhanced by oxidative stimuli. We conclude that phospholipase A activity may play an integral role in the microsomal lipid peroxidation mechanism. Based on this study, we hypothesize a role for phospholipases in facilitating propagation reactions. 相似文献

Polyunsaturated fatty acids and their esters are known to be susceptible to free radical-mediated oxidation, whereas cholesterol is thought to be more resistant to oxidation. In fact, it has been observed that in the case of plasma lipid peroxidation, the amount of oxidation products of polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid was higher than that of cholesterol. In contrast, during oxidative stress-induced cellular lipid peroxidation, oxidation products of cholesterol such as 7-hydroxycholesterol (7-OHCh) were detected in greater amounts than those of linoleates such as hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (HODE). There are several forms of oxidation products of cholesterol and linoleates in vivo, namely, hydroperoxides, as well as the hydroxides of both the free and ester forms of cholesterol and linoleates. To evaluate these oxidation products, a method used to determine the lipid oxidation products after reduction and saponification was developed. With this method, several forms of oxidation products of cholesterol and linoleates are measured as total 7-OHCh (t7-OHCh) and total HODE (tHODE), respectively. During free radical-mediated lipid peroxidation in plasma, the amount of tHODE was 6.3-fold higher than that of t7-OHCh. In contrast, when Jurkat cells were exposed to free radicals, the increased amount of cellular t7-OHCh was 5.7-fold higher than that of tHODE. Higher levels of t7-OHCh than those of tHODE have also been observed in selenium-deficient Jurkat cells and glutamate-treated neuronal cells. These results suggest that, in contrast to plasma oxidation, cellular cholesterol is more susceptible to oxidation than cellular linoleates. Collectively, cholesterol oxidation products at the 7-position may be a biomarker of cellular lipid peroxidation. 相似文献

Residential electrical wiring safety practices in the US result in the possibility of a small voltage (up to a few tenths of a volt) on appliance surfaces with respect to water pipes or other grounded surfaces. This "open circuit voltage" (V(OC)) will cause "contact current" to flow in a person who touches the appliance and completes an electrical circuit to ground. This paper presents data suggesting that contact current due to V(OC) is an exposure that may explain the reported associations of residential magnetic fields with childhood leukemia. Our analysis is based on a computer model of a 40 house (single-unit, detached dwelling) neighborhood with electrical service that is representative of US grounding practices. The analysis was motivated by recent research suggesting that the physical location of power lines in the backyard, in contrast to the street, may be relevant to a relationship of power lines with childhood leukemia. In the model, the highest magnetic field levels and V(OC)s were both associated with backyard lines, and the highest V(OC)s were also associated with long ground paths in the residence. Across the entire neighborhood, magnetic field exposure was highly correlated with V(OC) (r = 0.93). Dosimetric modeling indicates that, compared to a very high residential level of a uniform horizontal magnetic field (10 mu T) or a vertical electric field (100 V/m), a modest level of contact current (approximately 18 mu A) leads to considerably greater induced electric fields (> 1 mV/m) averaged across tissue, such as bone marrow and heart. The correlation of V(OC) with magnetic fields in the model, combined with the dose estimates, lead us to conclude that V(OC) is a potentially important exposure with respect to childhood leukemia risks associated with residential magnetic fields. These findings, nonetheless, may not apply to residential service used in several European countries or to the Scandinavian studies concerned with populations exposed to magnetic fields from overhead transmission lines. 相似文献

NADPH-dependent lipid peroxidation occurs in two distinct sequential radical steps. The first step, initiation, is the ADP-perferryl ion-catalyzed formation of low levels of lipid hydroperoxides. The second step, propagation, is the iron-catalyzed breakdown of lipid hydroperoxides formed during initiation generating reactive intermediates and products characteristic of lipid peroxidation. Propagation results in the rapid formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive material and lipid hydroperoxides. Propagation can be catalyzed by ethylenediamine tetraacetate-chelated ferrous ion, diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid-chelated ferrous ion, or by ferric cytochrome P-450. However, cytochrome P-450 is destroyed during propagation. 相似文献

The primary reactions leading to Al toxicity in plant cells have not yet been elucidated. We used soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) cell suspension cultures to address the question whether lipid peroxidation plays an important role in Al toxicity. Upon transfer to an Al-containing culture medium with a calculated Al3+ activity of 15 microM soybean cells showed a distinct and longtime increase in lipid peroxidation within 4 h. At the same time a drastic loss of cell viability was observed. Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and N,N'-diphenyl-p-phenylenediamine (DPPD), two lipophilic antioxidants, were able to almost completely suppress lipid peroxidation in Al-treated cells at a concentration of 20 microM. This effect was dose-dependent for DPPD and was observed at minimum concentrations of 1-2 microM. When lipid peroxidation was suppressed by DPPD or BHA cell viability remained high even in the presence of toxic Al concentrations. These results suggest that Al-induced enhancement of lipid peroxidation is a decisive factor for Al toxicity in suspension cultured soybean cells. 相似文献

Ferritin and haemosiderin were shown, by the measurement of malondialdehyde production and loss of polyunsaturated fatty acids, to stimulate lipid peroxidation in liposomes. At pH 7.4 ascorbate was additionally required to achieve peroxidation; however, peroxidation occurred at pH 4.5 in the presence of iron-proteins alone. The damage was completely inhibited by the incorporation of chain-breaking antioxidants (alpha-tocopherol and butylated hydroxytoluene) into the liposomes. Metal chelators (desferrioxamine and EDTA) also completely inhibited lipid peroxidation. These and further results indicate that, at pH 4.5, even in the absence of a reducing agent, iron is released from haemosiderin and can mediate oxidative damage to a lipid membrane. 相似文献

AlphaB-crystallin (HSPB5) is one of the most prominent and well-studied members of the small heat shock protein (sHsp) family. To date, it is known that this protein modulates significant cellular processes and therefore, it is not surprising that its deregulation is involved in various human pathologies, including cancer diseases. Despite the pathogenic significance of HSPB5 in cancer and its regulatory mechanism related to aggressiveness is poorly understood, several reports describe the association of breast carcinoma progression with HSPB5, whose expression is also considered an independent predictor of breast cancer metastasis to the brain. Indeed, numerous authors indicate HSPB5 as a new valuable biomarker for clinicopathological parameters and poor prognosis in breast cancer. Considering the cytoprotective, anti-apoptotic, pro-angiogenic, and pro-metastatic properties of the sHsps, it is not surprising that they are considered as promising targets for anticancer treatment, even though, at present, a deeper understanding of their mode of action is needed to allow the development of precise therapeutic interventions. Data on the direct inhibition of different sHsps demonstrate promising results in cancer pathologies; however, specific strategies against HSPB5 have not been considered. This review highlights the most relevant findings on HSPB5 and its role in breast cancer, as well as the possible strategies in using HSPB5 inhibition for therapeutic purposes. 相似文献
