A group of benzylisoquinoline alkaloids, including five simple benzylisoquinolines, three phtalideisoquinolines, six aporphines, three protoberberines, and two benzophenanthridines, have been studied as inhibitors of lipid peroxidation stimulated by Fe2+/cysteine in rat liver microsomal fractions. Protopapaverine, apomorphine, laudanosoline, tetrahydroberberine, isoboldine, bulbocapnine, boldine, anonaine, glaucine, and stepholidine showed antiperoxidative effects, and structure-activity relationships were established. In simple benzylisoquinolines, the presence of phenolic hydroxyls or similar reactive groups is necessary for inhibition of peroxidation, while in aporphines and protoberberines nonhydroxylated compounds can exert antiperoxidative effects. The phtalideisoquinolines and benzophenanthridines tested were inactive.  相似文献

In an experimental system where both Fe2+ autoxidation and generation of reactive oxygen species is negligible, the effect of FeCl2 and FeCl3 on the peroxidation of phosphatidylcholine (PC) liposomes containing different amounts of lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH) was studied; Fe2+ oxidation, oxygen consumption and oxidation index of the liposomes were measured. No peroxidation was observed at variable FeCl2/FeCl3 ratio when PC liposomes deprived of LOOH by triphenyl-phosphine treatment were utilized. By contrast, LOOH containing liposomes were peroxidized by FeCl2. The FeCl2 concentration at which Fe2+ oxidation was maximal, defined as critical Fe2+ concentration [Fe2+]*, depended on the LOOH concentration and not on the amount of PC liposomes in the assay. The LOOH-dependent lipid peroxidation was stimulated by FeCl3, addition; the oxidized form of the metal increased the average length of radical chains, shifted to higher values the [Fe2+]* and shortened the latent period. The iron chelator KSCN exerted effects opposite to those exerted by FeCl3 addition. The experimental data obtained indicate that the kinetics of LOOH-dependent lipid peroxidation depends on the Fe2+/Fe3+ ratio at each moment during the time course of lipid peroxidation. The results confirm that exogenously added FeCl3 does not affect the LOOH-independent but the LOOH-deendent lipid peroxidation; and suggest that the Feg, endogenously generated exerts a major role in the control of the LOOH-dependent lipid peroxidation.  相似文献

Carbon tetrachloride metabolism was examined in hepatic microsomes isolated from control and phenobarbital-treated Sprague-Dawley rats to determine the mechanism of pyridine nucleotide synergism. An NADPH generator increased metabolism two fold as determined by lipid peroxidation. Addition of NADP to the reaction system did not alter the maximum velocity, but did decrease the Km for NADPH from 61 μM to 7.6 μM in control and from 21 μM to 6.3 mM PB microsomes. Addition of NAD+ produced an increase in metabolism similar to NADH. Substrates and competitive inhibitors of nucleotide pyrophosphatase also enhanced CCl4 metabolism. A high correlation (r=0.947) was indicated between the percent inhibition of nucleotide pyrophosphatase and the percent synergism of NADPH-catalyzed CCl4 metabolism. Thus, pyridine nucleotiode synergism in CCl4 metabolism appears to result from the increased availability of NADPH produced by a decreased degradation of the NADPH by the nucleotide pyrophosphatase.  相似文献

The Mechanism of Iron (III) Stimulation of Lipid Peroxidation   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
A study conducted on Fe2+ autoxidation showed that its rate was extremely slow at acidic pH values and increased by increasing the pH; it was stimulated by Fe3+ addition but the stimulation did not present a maximum at a Fe2+/Fe3+ ratio approaching 1:1. The species generated during Fe3+-catalyzed Fe2+ autoxidation was able to oxidize deoxyribose; the increased Fe2+ oxidation observed at higher pHs was paralleled by increased deoxyribose degradation. The species generated during Fe3+-catalyzed Fe2+ autoxidation could not initiate lipid peroxidation in phosphatidylcholine liposomes from which lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH) had been removed by treatment with triph-enylphosphine. Neither Fe2+ oxidation nor changes in the oxidation index of the liposomes due to lipid peroxidation were observed at pHs where the Fe3+ effect on Fe2+ autoxidation and on deoxyribose degradation was evident. In our experimental system, a Fe2+/Fe3+ ratio ranging from 1:3 to 2:1 was unable to initiate lipid peroxidation in LOOH-free phosphatidylcholine liposomes. By contrast Fe3+ stimulated the peroxidation of liposomes where increasing amounts of cumene hydroperoxide were incorporated. These results argue against the participation of Fe3+ in the initiation of LOOH-independent lipid peroxidation and suggest its possible involvement in LOOH-dependent lipid peroxidation.  相似文献

Although considerably more oxidation-resistant than other P-type ATPases, the yeast PMA1 H+-ATPase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae SY4 secretory vesicles was inactivated by H2O2, Fe2+, Fe- and Cu-Fenton reagents. Inactivation by Fe2+ required the presence of oxygen and hence involved auto-oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+. The highest Fe2- (100 μM) and H2O2 (100 mM) concentrations used produced about the same effect. Inactivation by the Fenton reagent depended more on Fe2+ content than on H2O2 concentration, occurred only when Fe2+ was added to the vesicles first and was only slightly reduced by scavengers (mannitol, Tris, NaN3, DMSO) and by chelators (EDTA, EGTA, DTPA, BPDs, bipyridine, 1, 10-phenanthroline). Inactivation by Fe- and Cu- Fenton reagent was the same; the identical inactivation pattern found for both reagents under anaerobic conditions showed that both reagents act via OH·. The lipid peroxidation blocker BHT prevented Fenton-induced rise in lipid peroxidation in both whole cells and in isolated membrane lipids but did not protect the H+-ATPase in secretory vesicles against inactivation. ATP partially protected the enzyme against peroxide and the Fenton reagent in a way resembling the protection it afforded against SH-specific agents. The results indicate that Fe2+ and the Fenton reagent act via metal-catalyzed oxidation at specific metal-binding sites, very probably SH-containing amino acid residues. Deferrioxamine, which prevents the redox cycling of Fe2+, blocked H+-ATPase inactivation by Fe2+ and the Fenton reagent but not that caused by H2O2, which therefore seems to involve a direct non-radical attack. Fe-Fenton reagent caused fragmentation of the H+-ATPase molecule, which, in Western blots, did not give rise to defined fragments bands but merely to smears.  相似文献

Chelation by citrate was found to promote the autoxidation of Fe2+, measured as the disapperance of 1,10-phenanthroline-chelatable Fe2+. The autoxidation of citrate---2+ could in turn promote the peroxidation of microsomal phospholipid liposomes, as judged by malondialdehyde formation. At low citrate---Fe2+ ratios the autoxidation of Fe2+ was slow and the formation of malondialdehyde was preceded by a lag phase. The lag phase evidence of this, linear initial rates of lipid peroxidation were obtained via the combination of citrate---Fe2+ and citrate---Fe3+, optimum activity occurring at a Fe3+---Fe2+ ratio of 1:1. Evidence is also presented to suggest that the superoxide and the hydrogen peroxide that are formed during the autoxidation of citrate---Fe2+ can either stimulate or inhibit lipid peroxidation by affecting the yield of citrate---Fe3+ from citrate---Fe2+. No evidence was obtained for the participation of the hydroxyl radical in the initiation of lipid peroxidation by citrate---Fe2+.  相似文献

To define the molecular mechanism(s) of carvedilol inhibition of lipid peroxidation we have utilized model systems that allow us to study the different reactions involved in this complex process.

Carvedilol inhibits the peroxidation of sonicated phosphatidylcholine liposomes triggered by FeCl2 addition whereas atenolol, pindolol and labetalol are ineffective. The inhibition proved not to be ascribable (a) to an effect on Fe2+ autoxidation and thus on the generation of oxygen derived radical initiators; (b) to the scavenging of the inorganic initiators O·-2 and ·OH; (c) to an effect on the reductive cleavage of organic hydroperoxides by FeCl2; (d) to the scavenging of organic initiators. The observations that (a) carvedilol effectiveness is inversely proportional to the concentration of FeCl2 and lipid hydroperoxides in the assay; (b) the drug prevents the onset of lipid peroxidation stimulated by FeCl3 addition and; (c) it can form a complex with Fe3+, suggest a molecular mechanism for carvedilol action. It may inhibit lipid peroxidation by binding the Fe3+ generated during the oxidation of Fe2+ by lipid hydroperoxides in the substrate. The lag time that carvedilol introduces in the peroxidative process would correspond to the time taken for carvedilol to be titrated by Fe3+; when the drug is consumed the Fe3+ accumulates to reach the critical parameter that stimulates peroxidation. According to this molecular mechanism the antioxidant potency of carvedilol can be ascribed to its ability to bind a species, Fe3+, that is a catalyst of the process and to its lipophilic nature that concentrates it in the membranes where Fe3+ is generated by a site specific mechanism.  相似文献

Purified NADPH cytochrome c reductase catalyzes the oxidation of NADPH in the presence of Fe3+, ADP and EDTA. EDTA in this system appears to elevate the redox potential of ferric ion and of its iron complex thereby facilitating the transfer of one electron from NADPH to tri-valent iron (more rapidly than superoxide is formed) through a flavin moiety in the reductase, but it diminishes the concentration of free iron to be required for phospholipid peroxidation.

The reduction of Fe3+ by the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system is different from that manifested by the NADPH-NADPH cytochrome c reductase system in the manner in which the former is carried out in the main by Ostaggered2staggered− · generated by the substrate - O2 - enzyme interaction.

Reduced iron, which is free in the solution, plays an important role for the initiation and propagation of the phospholipid peroxidation, monitored by malondialdehyde assay and light emission.

In the xanthine-induced lipoxygenation system, the ·OH radical, probably produced from hydrogen peroxide by the action of Fe2+, is not involved in the initiation of the peroxidative cleavage of phospholipid in microsomal lipoprotein.  相似文献

Objective: Al3+ stimulates Fe2+ induced lipid oxidation in liposomal and cellular systems. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation may render the particle atherogenic. As elevated levels of Al3+ and increased lipid oxidation of LDL are found in sera of hemodialysis patients, we investigated the influence of Al3+ on LDL oxidation.

Materials and methods: Using different LDL modifying systems (Fe2+, Cu2+, free radical generating compounds, human endothelial cells, hemin/H2O2 and HOCl), the influence of Al3+ on LDL lipid and apoprotein alteration was investigated by altered electrophoretic mobility, lipid hydroperoxide-, conjugated diene- and TBARS formation.

Results: Al3+ could stimulate the oxidizability of LDL by Fe2+, but not in the other systems tested. Al3+ and Fe2+ were found to bind to LDL and Al3+could compete with Fe2+ binding to the lipoprotein. Fluorescence polarization data indicated that Al3+ does not affect the phospholipid compartment of LDL.

Conclusions:The results indicate that increased LDL oxidation by Fe2+ in presence of Al3+ might be due to blockage of Fe2+ binding sites on LDL making more free Fe2+ available for lipid oxidation.  相似文献

Preincubation of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells at 22 or 32°C, but not at 0°C, with pantothenic acid, 4′-phosphopantothenic acid, pantothenol, or pantethine reduced lipid peroxidation (measured by production of thiobarbituric acid-reactive compounds) induced by the Fenton reaction (Fe2+ + H2O2) and partly protected the plasma membrane against the leakiness to cytoplasmic proteins produced by the same reagent. Pantothenic acid and its derivatives did not inhibit (Fe2+ + H2O2)-induced peroxidation of phospholipid multilamellar vesicles, thus indicating that their effect on the cells was not due to the scavenging mechanism. Homopantothenic acid and its 4′-phosphate ester (which are not precursors of CoA) neither protected Ehrlich ascites tumor cells against lipid peroxidation nor prevented plasma membrane leakiness under the same conditions. Incubation of the cells with pantothenic acid, 4′-phosphopantothenic acid, pantothenol, or pantethine significantly increased the amount of cellular CoA and potentiated incorporation of added palmitate into phospholipids and cholesterol esters. It is concluded that pantothenic acid and its related compounds protect the plasma membrane of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells against the damage by oxygen free radicals due to increasing cellular level of CoA. The latter compound may act by diminishing propagation of lipid peroxidation and promoting repair mechanisms, mainly the synthesis of phospholipids.  相似文献

We examined the effects of 48 compounds isolated from Ferula pallida, F. penninervis, Inula macrophylla, Prangos pabularia, P. tschimganica and Rheum maximowiczii collected in Uzbekistan on ADP/Fe2+-induced lipid peroxidation of egg yolk phosphatidylcholine liposomes. Of those compounds, 23 inhibited ADP/Fe2+-induced lipid peroxidation and nine showed especially strong inhibition of lipid peroxidation. Most compounds that inhibited peroxidation scavenged the 1,1′-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical, indicating that the inhibition was due to radical scavenging. However, some compounds did not scavenge DPPH but inhibited lipid peroxidation significantly, suggesting that their inhibitory effect was not due to radical scavenging but to some other mechanism, such as prevention of Fe2+ function. Thus, we found various new antioxidants, some of which had a unique mechanism of action, in Ferula, Inula, Prangos and Rheum plants collected in Uzbekistan as seeds used in medicine.  相似文献

To find experimental conditions to selectively study the propagation phase of lipoperoxidation we studied the lipoperoxidation, catalyzed by FeCl2, of liposomes in a buffering condition where Fe2+ autoxidation and oxygen active species generation does not occur. Liposomes from egg yolk phosphatidylcholine. prepared by vortex mixing, do not oxidize Fe2+: on the contrary they oxidize Fe2+ when prepared by ultrasonic irradiation. Dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine liposomes prepared by ultrasonic irradiation do not oxidize Fe2+. During sonication polyunsaturated fatty acid residues autoxidize and lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH) are generated. Only when LOOH are present in the liposimes Fe2+ oxidizes and its rate of oxidation depends on the amount of LOOH in the assay. The reaction results in the generation of both LOOH and thiobarbituric acid reactive material (TBAR): it is inhibited by butylated hydroxytoluene and has a acidic pH optimum; it is not inhibited by catalase and OH' scavengers. The reaction studied. thus, appears to be the chain branching and propagation phase of lipoperoxidation. When we studied the dependence of Fe2+ oxidation, LOOH and TBAR generation on FeCl2 concentration, we observed that at high FeCl2 concentrations the termination phase of lipoperoxidation was prevalent. Thus. by selecting the appropriate FeCl2 concentration the proposed experimental system allows study of either the propagation or the termination phase of lipoperoxidation.  相似文献

Lysophosphatidic Acid-Induced Proliferation-Related Signals in Astrocytes   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Abstract: Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a potent lipid biomediator that is likely to have diverse roles in the brain. Thus, LPA-induced events in astrocytes were defined. As little as 1 n M LPA induced a rapid increase in the concentration of intracellular free calcium ([Ca2+]i) in astrocytes from neonatal rat brains. This increase was followed by a slow return to the basal level. Intracellular calcium stores were important for the initial rise in [Ca2+]i, whereas the influx of extracellular calcium contributed significantly to the extended elevation of [Ca2+]i. LPA treatment also resulted in increases in lipid peroxidation and DNA synthesis. These increases in [Ca2+]i, lipid peroxidation, and DNA synthesis were inhibited by pretreatment of cells with pertussis toxin or H7, a serine/threonine protein kinase inhibitor. Moreover, the LPA-induced increase in [Ca2+]i was inhibited by a protein kinase C inhibitor, Ro 31-8220, and a calcium-dependent protein kinase C inhibitor, Gö 6976. The increase in [Ca2+]i was important for the LPA-induced increase in lipid peroxidation, whereas the antioxidant, propyl gallate, inhibited the LPA-stimulated increases in lipid peroxidation and DNA synthesis. In contrast, pertussis toxin, H7, and propyl gallate had no effect on LPA-induced inhibition of glutamate uptake. Thus, LPA appears to signal via at least two distinctive mechanisms in astrocytes. One is a novel pathway, namely, activation of a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein and participation of a protein kinase, leading to sequential increases in [Ca2+]i, lipid peroxidation, and DNA synthesis.  相似文献

In the present study we show that K+/H+ hydroxyl-containing ionophores lasalocid-A (LAS) and nigericin (NIG) in the nanomolar concentration range, inhibit Fe2+-citrate and 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane) di-hydrochloride (ABAP)-induced lipid peroxidation in intact rat liver mitochondria and in egg phosphatidyl-choline (PC) liposomes containing negatively charged lipids—dicetyl phosphate (DCP) or cardiolipin (CL)—and KCl as the osmotic support. In addition, monensin (MON), a hydroxyl-containing ionophore with higher affinity for Na+ than for K+, promotes a similar effect when NaCl is the osmotic support. The protective effect of the ionophores is not observed when the osmolyte is sucrose. Lipid peroxidation was evidenced by mitochondrial swelling, antimycin A-insensitive O2 consumption, formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), conjugated dienes, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of an incorporated lipid spin probe. A time-dependent decay of spin label EPR signal is observed as a consequence of lipid peroxidation induced by both inductor systems in liposomes. Nitroxide destruction is inhibited by buty-lated hydroxytoluene, a known antioxidant, and by the hydroxyl-containing ionophores. In contrast, vali-nomycin (VAL), which does not possess alcoholic groups, does not display this protective effect. Effective order parameters (Seff), determined from the spectra of an incorporated spin label are larger in the presence of salt and display a small increase upon addition of the ionophores, as a result of the increase of counter ion concentration at the negatively charged bilayer surface. This condition leads to increased formation of the ion-ionophore complex, the membrane binding (uncharged) species. The membrane-incorporated complex is the active species in the lipid peroxidation inhibiting process. Studies in aqueous solution (in the absence of membranes) showed that NIG and LAS, but not VAL, decrease the Fe2+-citrate-induced production of radicals derived from piperazine-based buffers, demonstrating their property as radical scavengers. Both Fe2+-citrate and ABAP promote a much more pronounced decrease of LAS fluorescence in PC/CL liposomes than in dimyristoyl phosphatidyl-choline (DMPC, saturated phospholipid)-DCP liposomes, indicating that the ionophore also scavenges lipid peroxyl radicals. A slow decrease of fluorescence is observed in the latter system, for all lipid compositions in sucrose medium, and in the absence of membranes, indicating that the primary radicals stemming from both inductors also attack the ionophore. Altogether, the data lead to the conclusion that the membrane-incorporated cation complexes of NIG, LAS and MON inhibit lipid peroxidation by blocking initiation and propagation reactions in the lipid phase via a free radical scavenging mechanism, very likely due to the presence of alcoholic hydroxyl groups in all three molecules and to the attack of the aromatic moiety of LAS.  相似文献

LIPID PEROXIDE FORMATION IN RAT BRAIN   总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1  
Abstract— Lipid peroxide formation as measured by the thiobarbituric acid reaction was demonstrated in subcellular fractions of rat brain. The ascorbic acid induced nonenzymic lipid peroxidation was distributed in all the subcellular fractions with a maximum in microsomes. The NADPH dependent enzymic lipid peroxidation occurred mainly in microsomes and to a smaller extent in synaptosomes; NADH could replace NADPH for the enzymic lipid peroxidation under the assay conditions employed. Fe2+ but not Fe3+ stimulated the NADPH or NADH dependent lipid peroxide formation. The optimum conditions with respect to pH, ascorbic acid or NADPH concentration, time of incubation and protein concentration were studied. Heating the microsomes at 100oCdid not influence the ascorbate-induced lipid peroxidation but completely abolished the NADPH linked peroxidation. Several heavy metal ions, surface active agents and EDTA were inhibitory to lipid peroxidation. The effect of thiol agents indicated that -SH groups were involved in the enzymic lipid peroxidation. Studies on subcellular fractions of developing rat brain showed an increasing trend in lipid peroxidation with the advancing age of the animal. No significant difference in lipid peroxidation was observed between brains from normal rats and those from rats affected by experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.  相似文献

Lipid peroxidation (LPO) of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) is suspected to be involved in the generation of chronic diseases. A model reaction for LPO is the air oxidation of PUFAs initiated by Fe2+ and ascorbic acid. In the course of such model reactions glycolaldehyde (GLA) was detected as main aldehydic product. Since it is difficult to explain the generation of GLA by oxidation of PUFAs, it was suspected that GLA might be derived by oxidation of ascorbic acid. This assumption was verified by treatment of ascorbic acid with Fe2+.

Produced aldehydic compounds were trapped by addition of pentafluorobenzylhydroxylamine hydrochloride (PFBHA-HCl), trimethylsilylated and finally identified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Oxidation of ascorbic acid with O2 in presence of iron ions produced not only glycolaldehyde (GLA), but also glyceraldehyde (GA), dihydroxyacetone (DA) and formaldehyde. Glyoxal (GO) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were detected as trace compounds.

The yield of the aldehydic compounds was increased by addition of lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH) or H2O2. The buffer influenced the reaction considerably: Iron ions react with Tris buffer by producing dihydroxyace-tone (DA). Since ascorbic acid is present in biological systems and Fe2+ ions are obviously generated by cell damaging processes, the production of GLA and other aldehydic components might add to the damaging effects of LPO.

Glucose suffers also oxidation to short-chain aldehydic compounds in aqueous solution, but this reaction requires addition of equimolar amounts of Fe2+ together with equimolar amounts of H2O2 or 13-hydroperoxy-9-cis-11-trans-octadecadienoic acid (13-HPODE). Therefore this reaction, also influenced by the buffer system, seems to be not of biological relevance.  相似文献

In order to evaluate different mitochondrial antioxidant systems, the depletion of alpha-tocopherol and the levels of the reduced and oxidized forms of CoQ were measured in rat liver mitochondria during Fe++/ascorbate and NADPH/ADP/Fe++ induced lipid peroxidation. During the induction phase of malondialdehyde formation, alpha-tocopherol declined moderately to about 80% of initial contents, whereas the total CoQ pool remained nearly unchanged, but reduced CoQ9 continuously declined. At the start of massive malondialdehyde formation, CoQ9 reaches its fully oxidized state. At the same time alpha-tocopherol starts to decline steeply, but never becomes fully exhausted in both experimental systems. Evidently the oxidation of the CoQ9 pool constitutes a prerequisite for the onset of massive lipid peroxidation in mitochondria and for the subsequent depletion of alpha-tocopherol. Trapping of the GSH by addition of dinitrochlorbenzene (a substrate of the GSH transferase), results in a moderate acceleration of lipid peroxidation, but alpha-tocopherol and ubiquinol levels remained unchanged when compared with the controls. Addition of succinate to GSH depleted mitochondria effectively suppressed MDA formation as well as alpha-tocopherol and ubiquinol depletion. The data support the assumption that the protective effect of respiratory substrates against lipid peroxidation in the absence of mitochondrial GSH is mediated by the regeneration of the lipid soluble antioxidants CoQ and alpha-tocopherol.  相似文献

Objectives. To determine the antioxidant activities of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), we examined by chemiluminescence (CL) and electron spin resonance (ESR) their scavenging properties towards lipid peroxides, hypochlorous acid and peroxynitrite.

Methods. The antioxidant properties of nimesulide (NIM), 4-hydroxynimesulide (4-HONIM), aceclofenac (ACLO), 4-hydroxyaceclofenac (4-HOA-CLO), diclofenac (DICLO) and indomethacin (INDO) were tested on four different reactive oxygen species (ROS) generating systems: (I) phorbol-myristate acetate (PMA)-activated neutrophils, (II) Fe2+/ascorbate-induced lipid peroxidation, (III) HOCl-induced light emission, (IV) the kinetics of ONOO- decomposition followed by spectrophotometry. ROS production was monitored by luminol-enhanced CL or by ESR using two different spin traps.

Results. At 10 μM, ACLO, NIM, 4-HONIM, 4-HOA-CLO, and DICLO decreased luminol-enhanced CL generated by PMA-activated neutrophils. Inversely, INDO increased the luminol enhanced CL. Interestingly, hydroxylated metabolites were more potent antioxidants than the parent drugs. Furthermore, all drugs tested, excepted ACLO, lowered lipid peroxidation induced by Fe2+/ascorbate system. ACLO and DICLO, even at the highest concentration tested (100 μM), did not significantly lower HOCl induced CL, whereas the other drugs were potent scavengers. Finally, all the NSAIDS accelerated decomposition of ONOO-, suggesting a potential capacity of the molecules to scavenge peroxynitrite.

Conclusion. The NSAIDs possess variable degrees of antioxidant activities, linked to their ability to react with HOCl, lipid peroxides or ONOO-. These antioxidant activities could offer interesting targeted side-effects in the treatment of joint inflammatory diseases.  相似文献

The role of histidine on DNA breakage induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and ferric ions or by H2O2 and cupric ions was studied on purified DNA. L-histidine slightly reduced DNA breakage by H2O2 and Fe3+ but greatly inhibited DNA breakage by H2O2 and Cu2+. However, only when histidine was present, the addition of EDTA to H2O2 and Fe3+ exhibited a bimodal dose response curve depending on the chelator metal ratio. The enhancing effect of histidine on the rate of DNA degradation by H2O2 was maximal at a chelator metal ratio between 0.2 and 0.5, and was specific for iron. When D-histidine replaced L-histidine, the same pattern of EDTA dose response curve was observed. Superoxide dismutase greatly inhibited the rate of DNA degradation induced by H2O2, Fe3+, EDTA and L-histidine involving the superoxide radical.

These studies suggest that the enhancing effect of histidine on the rate of DNA degradation by H2O2 and Fe3+ is mediated by an oxidant which could be a ferrous-dioxygen-ferric chelate complex or a chelate-ferryl ion.  相似文献

The effect of lactic acid (lactate) on Fenton based hydroxyl radical (·OH) production was studied by spin trapping, ESR, and fluorescence methods using DMPO and coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (3-CCA) as the ·OH traps respectively. The ·OH adduct formation was inhibited by lactate up to 0.4mM (lactate/iron stoichiometry = 2) in both experiments, but markedly enhanced with increasing concentrations of lactate above this critical concentration. When the H2O2 dependence was examined, the DMPO-OH signal was increased linearly with H2O2 concentration up to 1 mM and then saturated in the absence of lactate. In the presence of lactate, however, the DMPO-OH signal was increased further with higher H2O2 concentration than 1 mM, and the saturation level was also increased dependent on lactate concentration. Spectroscopic studies revealed that lactate forms a stable colored complex with Fe3+ at lactate/Fe3+ stoichiometry of 2, and the complex formation was strictly related to the DMPO-OH formation. The complex formation did not promote the H2O2 mediated Fe3+ reduction. When the Fe3+-lactate (1:2) complex was reacted with H2O2, the initial rate of hydroxylated 3-CCA formation was linearly increased with H2O2 concentrations. All the data obtained in the present experiments suggested that the Fe3+-lactate (1:2) complex formed in the Fenton reaction system reacts directly with H2O2 to produce additional ·OH in the Fenton reaction by other mechanisms than lactate or lactate/Fe3+ mediated promotion of Fe3+/Fe2+ redox cycling.  相似文献
