Radioactively labeled [14C]phosphatidyl choline dispersed on Celite was equilibrated with bovine serum albumin solutions buffered at pH 8.0. Phosphatidyl choline was rapidly solubilized in the presence of serum albumin, and formed stable protein-lipid complexes which were isolated by gel-filtration through a Sepharose 4B column. Under similar conditions, equilibration of the protein with phosphatidyl choline liposome dispersions in buffer did not result in complex formation. The altered physical state of phosphatidyl choline on the weakly adsorbing Celite surface appears to be essential for binding by native bovine serum albumin. This work reports the first observation of phosphatidyl choline binding to native serum albumin in bulk phase and suggests the possibility of exposing monodisperse lipids, under controlled conditions, to proteins having lipid binding properties.  相似文献

Autoimmune diseases are characterized by the presence of autoantibodies often restricted to host proteins exhibiting charge rich domains. Charged polypeptides elicit strong immune responses, and cationized bovine serum albumin and other cationic proteins are significantly more immunogenic than their less charged counterparts. These phenomena may involve enhanced protein uptake by macrophages, resulting in greater processing and presentation of antigenic peptide-MHC complexes to T-cells. We compared macrophage cell-surface binding and uptake of native and cationized bovine serum albumin. Specific binding of [125I]cationized bovine serum albumin to THP-1 macrophages in vitro was 11-16 fold greater than for native albumin. Half-maximal inhibition of [125I]cationized albumin binding was observed at 10-7M ligand. The specificity of [125I]cationized bovine serum albumin binding and uptake was further studied in terms of competitive inhibition of proteolysis by proteins of varying charge content. Cationized bovine serum albumin, but not native albumin, inhibited proteolysis of [125I]cBSA. Calf thymus histones also inhibited cBSA degradation. High concentration of myelin basic protein was moderately effective at blocking cBSA degradation, while myoglobin and beta lactalbumin showed no inhibition. These results indicate that specific cell-surface binding sites which occur on macrophages may mediate selective uptake of certain proteins with highly charged domains including some autoantigens.  相似文献

Albumin is supposed to be the major antioxidant circulating in blood. This study examined the prevention of membrane lipid peroxidation by bovine serum albumin (BSA). Lipid peroxidation was induced by the exposing of enzymatically generated superoxide radicals to egg yolk phosphatidylcholine liposomes incorporating lipids with different charges in the presence of chelated iron catalysts. We used three kinds of Fe3+-chelates, which initiated reactions that were dependent on membrane charge: Fe3+-EDTA and Fe3+-EGTA catalyzed peroxidation in positively and negatively charged liposomes, respectively, and Fe3+-NTA, a renal carcinogen, catalyzed the reaction in liposomes of either charge. Fe3+-chelates initiated more lipid peroxidation in liposomes with increased zeta potentials, followed by an increase of their availability for the initiation of the reaction at the membrane surface. BSA inhibits lipid peroxidation by preventing the interaction of iron chelate with membranes, followed by a decrease of its availability in a charge-dependent manner depending on the iron-chelate concentration: one is accompanied and the other is unaccompanied by a change in the membrane charge. The inhibitory effect of BSA in the former at high concentrations of iron chelate would be attributed to its electrostatic binding with oppositely charged membranes. The inhibitory effect in the latter at low concentrations of iron chelate would be caused by BSA binding with iron chelates and keeping them away from membrane surface where lipid peroxidation is initiated. Although these results warrant further in vivo investigation, it was concluded that BSA inhibits membrane lipid peroxidation by decreasing the availability of iron for the initiation of membrane lipid peroxidation, in addition to trapping active oxygens and free radicals.  相似文献

Peroxidation of rat brain synaptosomes was assessed by the formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive products in either 50 mM potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) or pH adjusted saline. In phosphate, addition of Fe2+ resulted in a dose-related increase in lipid peroxidation. In saline, stimulation of lipid peroxidation by Fe2+ was maximal at 30 uM, and was less at concentrations of 100 uM and above. Whereas desferrioxamine caused a dose-related inhibition of iron-dependent lipid peroxidation in phosphate, it stimulated lipid peroxidation with Fe2+ by as much as 7-fold in saline. The effects of desferrioxamine depended upon the oxidation state of iron, and the concentration of desferrioxamine and lipid. The results suggest that lipid and desferrioxamine compete for available iron. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that either phosphate or desferrioxamine may stimulate iron-dependent lipid peroxidation under certain circumstances by favoring formation of Fe2+/Fe3+ ratios.  相似文献

The dual role of ascorbate as an antioxidant and a prooxidant has been clearly documented in the literature. Ascorbate acts as an antioxidant by protecting human serum from lipid peroxidation induced by azo dye-generated free radicals. On the other hand, ascorbate is readily oxidized in the presence of transition metal ions, (especially cupric ion) and accelerates lipid peroxidation in tissue homogenates by producing free radicals. Interestingly, we observed an antioxidant rather than an expected prooxidant role of ascorbate when human serum supplemented with 1.2mmol/L ascorbate underwent lipid peroxidations initiated by 2mmol/L copper sulfate. The antioxidant role of ascorbate was confirmed by studying the conventional thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) as well as by observing the protective effect of ascorbate on the copper-induced peroxidation of unsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids. The antioxidation protection provided by ascorbate was comparable to that of equimolar alpha-tocopherol when incubated for 24h. However, lipid peroxidation products were lower in serum supplemented with alpha-tocopherol after 48h of incubation. This effect may be attributed to the binding of copper by plpha-tocopherol after serum proteins, thus preventing direct interaction between cupric ions and ascorbate. This proposed mechanism is based on the observation that the concentration of ascorbate decreased more slowly in serum than in phosphate buffer at physiological pH. Our results also indicate an outstanding anti-oxidant property of human serum due to the chelation of transition metal ions (even at high concentrations) by various serum proteins.  相似文献

Loss of forward motility of rabbit epididymal spermatozoa in high K+ phosphate buffer is inhibited by taurine, hypotaurine, epinephrine and bovine serum albumin. Pyruvate and lactate also show this effect. The rate of lipid peroxidation in these spermatozoa, as measured by rate of formation of malondialdehyde, is also inhibited by these agents. A close linear correlation between percent inert spermatozoa and malondialdehyde was found, which was independent of the rate of peroxidation. Complete cessation of motility was observed at 0.5 nmol malondialdehyde/10(8) cells in the absence or presence of these agents, which is the same value found in other suspending media in a previous study [Alvarez and Storey (1982) Biol. Reprod. 27:1102-1108]. Albumin was the most effective agent in preventing loss of motility and inhibiting lipid peroxidation. Hypotaurine was the next most effective, followed by taurine, epinephrine, pyruvate and lactate. Hypotaurine reduces the amount of rate of superoxide production, as measured by the rate of reduction of acetylated ferricytochrome c by O(2), from rabbit sperm under these conditions and concomitantly reduces inactivation of the superoxide dismutase in these cells. Since superoxide seems to be the major inducer of lipid peroxidation in rabbit sperm, the protective effect of hypotaurine, which should be readily permeant to the plasma membrane, may be ascribed to scavenging of intracellular superoxide. The mechanism of the protective action of albumin is not known. Rabbit epididymal spermatozoa lose motility over time if Ca2+ or Mg2+ are omitted from the suspending medium.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The binding reaction of the biomolecules streptavidin and anti-biotin antibody, both labelled by magnetic nanoparticles (MNP), to biotin coated on agarose beads, was quantified by magnetorelaxometry (MRX). Highly sensitive SQUID-based MRX revealed the immobilization of the MNP caused by the biotin-streptavidin coupling. We found that about 85% of streptavidin-functionalised MNP bound specifically to biotin-agarose beads. On the other hand only 20% of antibiotin-antibody functionalised MNP were specifically bound. Variation of the suspension medium revealed in comparison to phosphate buffer with 0.1% bovine serum albumin a slight change of the binding behaviour in human serum, probably due to the presence of functioning (non heated) serum proteins. Furthermore, in human serum an additional non-specific binding occurs, being independent from the serum protein functionality.  相似文献

The addition of NADH to submitochondrial particles inhibited by agents which interrupt electron transport from NADH-Q oxidoreductase (Complex I) to Q10 (rotenone, piericidin A, and MPP+) results in superoxide formation and lipid peroxidation. A study of the quantitative relations now shows that oxyradical formation does not appear to be the direct result of the inhibition. Although tetraphenyl boron (TPB) greatly enhances the inhibition by MPP+, it has no effect on O2. formation or lipid peroxidation. When submitochondrial particles completely inhibited by rotenone or piericidin A are treated with bovine serum albumin to remove spuriously bound inhibitor molecules without affecting those bound at the specific inhibition site, NADH-Q activity remains inhibited and lipid peroxidation occurs but superoxide formation ceases. Thus oxyradical formation may be the result of the binding of inhibitors at sites in the membrane other than those related to the inhibition of electron transport.  相似文献

The extent of binding of sodium dodecyl sulphate to bovine serum albumin at high binding ratios was investigated by gel filtration. The weight ratio of bound sodium dodecyl sulphate to bovine serum albumin increases with the NaCl concentration, and, except at low salt concentrations, with the concentration of sodium dodecyl sulphate. In the presence of 1.0g of sodium dodecyl sulphate/l, the binding ratio varied from 1.0 (at 0.04m-Na(+)) to 2.2 (at 0.44m-Na(+)). In the presence of 0.24m-Na(+), the binding ratio increased with sodium dodecyl sulphate concentration, from 0.9 (0.2g of sodium dodecyl sulphate/l) to 2.0 (5g of sodium dodecyl sulphate/l), at 26 degrees C, in a dilute sodium phosphate buffer. No significant dependence of the binding ratio upon temperature in the range 26-45 degrees C was observed. These results differ from those of Reynolds & Tanford (1970a) obtained by equilibrium dialysis.  相似文献

Red blood cell lysis is a common symptom following severe or prolonged oxidative stress. Oxidative processes occur commonly in sickle cells, probably mediated through denatured hemoglobin and the accumulation of ferric hemes in the membranes. Calmodulin-stimulated (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase from sickle red cell membranes is partially inactivated (Leclerc et al. (1987) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 897, 33-40). In this study (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity from normal adult erythrocyte membranes was measured in the presence of hemin. We report a time- and concentration-dependent inhibition of the activity of the enzyme by hemin due to a decrease in the maximum velocity. Only a mild inhibitory effect was observed in the presence of iron-free protoporphyrin IX, indicating the catalytic influence of the iron. Experiments carried out with hemin (ferric iron) liganded with imidazole or with reduced protoheme (ferrous iron) liganded with carbon monoxide, demonstrated that the inhibition requires that hemin be capable of binding additional ligands. The inhibition was not influenced by the absence of oxygen but was prevented by addition of bovine serum albumin. Addition of butylated hydroxytoluene, a protective agent of lipid peroxidation, failed to prevent the inhibition of calmodulin-stimulated (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase. As dithiothreitol partially restores the enzyme activity, we postulated that hemin interacts with the thiol groups of the enzyme.  相似文献

Haem and non-haem iron-containing proteins stimulate lipid peroxidation with the formation of fluorescent lipid complexes. This process requires the presence of lipid hydroperoxides which release ferrozine-reactive iron from haem-containing proteins. Stimulation of lipid peroxidation by the released iron is inhibited by the iron chelator desferrioxamine. Copper ions, although more stimulatory towards fluorescent lipid complex formation than iron ions, do not stimulate lipid peroxidation when tightly bound at the active centre of proteins, but are reactive when loosely bound to albumin and histidine.  相似文献

Rat brain homogenate was incubated with various concentrations of ascorbate in a Tris-HC1 buffer. Thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) were measured and 3H-QNB (quinuclidinyl benzilate) binding was also assayed on the same homogenate. Good parallelism between TBARS formation and loss of 3H-QNB binding activity confirmed that loss of 3H-QNB binding resulted from ascorbate-induced lipid peroxidation. However, neither formation of TBARS nor loss of 3H-QNB binding occurred in phosphate buffer or in the Tris-HC1 system in the presence of metal-chelating reagents. This indicates that phosphate addition prevents the ascorbate effects due to complete chelation of intrinsic metal ions.  相似文献

Comparison of iron-catalyzed DNA and lipid oxidation   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
Lipid and DNA oxidation catalyzed by iron(II) were compared in HEPES and phosphate buffers. Lipid peroxidation was examined in a sensitive liposome system constructed with a fluorescent probe that allowed us to examine the effects of both low and high iron concentrations. With liposomes made from synthetic 1-stearoyl-2-linoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine or from rat liver microsomal lipid, lipid peroxidation increased with iron concentration up to the range of 10--20 microM iron(II), but then rates decreased with further increases in iron concentration. This may be due to the limited amount of lipid peroxides available in liposomes for oxidation of iron(II) to generate equimolar iron(III), which is thought to be important for the initation of lipid peroxidation. Addition of hydrogen peroxide to incubations with 1--10 microM iron(II) decreased rates of lipid peroxidation, whereas addition of hydrogen peroxide to incubations with higher iron concentrations increased rates of lipid peroxidation. Thus, in this liposome system, sufficient peroxide from either within the lipid or from exogenous sources must be present to generate equimolar iron(II) and iron(III). With iron-catalyzed DNA oxidation, hydrogen peroxide always stimulated product formation. Phosphate buffer, which chelates iron but still allows for generation of hydroxyl radicals, inhibited lipid peroxidation but not DNA oxidation. HEPES buffer, which scavenges hydroxyl radicals, inhibited DNA oxidation, whereas lipid peroxidation was unaffected since presumably iron(II) and iron(III) were still available for reaction with liposomes in HEPES buffer.  相似文献

We examined the effect of phosphate buffer on the iron- and copper-catalyzed peroxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL). The incubation of LDL with CuSO4 in 0.15 M NaCl led to the peroxidation of LDL as evidenced by the detection of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) and lipid hydroperoxides (LPO). The peroxidation of LDL was also observed with FeSO4 and FeCl3 in 0.15 M NaCl, although there was a lag phase with FeCl3. In 10 mM phosphate buffer, the peroxidation of LDL was observed with CuSO4 to an extent similar to that in 0.15 M NaCl. However, the peroxidation induced by incubation with FeSO4 and FeCl3 was significantly inhibited in phosphate buffer. Iron and copper each formed a complex with lipoprotein during incubation with LDL in 0.15 M NaCl. Although no effect on the formation of copper-LDL complex was observed in phosphate buffer, the formation of iron-LDL complex was reduced in the buffer. These observations suggest there are marked differences in the peroxidation of LDL and in the formation of complexes with LDL between iron and copper in phosphate buffer.  相似文献

The oligomers of bovine serum albumin were produced by controlled reaction with peroxidizing linoleic acid to examine their possible utility as calibration proteins insodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The polymerization was effected in reaction mixtures containing linoleic acid undergoing peroxidation in the presence of ascorbic acid, and conditions that yield soluble oligomers with a wide molecular weight distribution were established. The interaction of these soluble oligomers with sodium dodecyl sulfate exhibited a binding isotherm indistinguishable from that obtained with bovine serum albumin. Furthermore, sodium dodecy sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the albumin oligomers conformed to the empirical relation of molecular weight to mobility that pertains to the use of these oligomers as standard molecular weight markers.  相似文献

We have suggested that red blood cell proteolytic systems can degrade oxidatively damaged proteins, and that both damage and degradation are independent of lipid peroxidation (Davies, K. J. A., and Goldberg, A. L. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 8220-8226. These ideas have now been tested in cell-free extracts of rabbit erythrocytes and reticulocytes. Exposure to oxygen radicals or H2O2 increases the degradation of endogenous proteins in cell-free extracts, as in intact cells. Various radical-generating systems (acetaldehyde or xanthine + xanthine oxidase, ascorbic acid + iron, H2O2 + iron) and H2O2 alone enhanced the rates of proteolysis severalfold. Since these extracts were free of membrane lipids, protein damage and degradation must be independent of lipid peroxidation. An antioxidant buffer consisting of HEPES, glycerol, and dithiothreitol inhibited the increased proteolysis by 60-100%. Mannitol caused a 50-80% reduction in proteolysis suggesting that the hydroxyl radical (.OH), or a species with similar reactivity, may be the initiator of protein damage. When casein or bovine serum albumin were exposed to .OH (generated by H2O2 + Fe2+, or COCo radiation) these proteins were degraded up to 50 times faster than untreated proteins during subsequent incubations with red cell extracts. Mannitol inhibited this increase in proteolysis only if present during .OH exposure; mannitol did not affect the degradative system. Although ATP increased the degradation of untreated proteins 4- to 6-fold in reticulocyte extracts, it had little or no effect on the degradation of proteins exposed to .OH. ATP also did not stimulate hydrolysis of .OH-treated proteins in erythrocyte extracts. Leupeptin did not affect the degradative processes in either extract; thus lysosomal or Ca2+-activated thiol proteases were not involved. We propose that red cells contain a soluble, ATP-independent proteolytic pathway which may protect against the accumulation of proteins damaged by .OH or other active oxygen species.  相似文献

Individual nonesterified fatty acids were bound to albumin in vitro and these fatty acid albumin complexes were used to study their effect on lipid peroxidation in liver microsomes. Peroxidation was induced by various methods and malondialdehyde (MDA) was measured as an index of peroxidation. Among the fatty acids tested, albumin-bound monounsaturated fatty acids showed more inhibition of peroxidation as compared to other fatty acids. Increasing the concentration of iron in the peroxidizing system, partially reversed the inhibition by fatty acids. Moreover, albumin-bound fatty acid did not inhibit iron independent peroxidation. This suggests that, like nonesterified fatty acids, albumin-bound fatty acids inhibit peroxidation by chelating the iron. Albumin fatty acid complex, similar to the fatty acid composition present in the circulating albumin, also showed inhibition of peroxidation. These data indicate that nonesterified fatty acids even when bound to albumin are capable of inhibiting peroxidation and circulating albumin, which contains various fatty acids bound to it, may impart some antioxidant effect in addition to other plasma antioxidants.  相似文献

Enantioselectivity in the burst phase of the reactions of d- and l-p-nitrophenyl α-methoxyphenyl acetates with human and bovine serum albumin was investigated kinetically in pH 7.4 phosphate buffer and at 25 °C. The burst phase was measured under the conditions of excess albumin over the enantiomer. Both albumins reacted with d enantiomer about threefold faster than l enantiomer, mainly due to the catalytic step and not due to the binding step. The reactivity of human serum albumin toward the enantiomers was four- to fivefold higher than that of bovine serum albumin.  相似文献

Binding and calcium-induced aggregation of laminin onto lipid bilayers   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
Direct binding of laminin in the form of its complex with nidogen to planar lipid bilayers was demonstrated with total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. Binding occurred equally well to zwitterionic (phosphatidylcholine) and negatively charged (phosphatidylglycerol) lipids and was enhanced by sulfatides but only at nonphysiological molar ratios higher than 30 mol %. Strong interactions with lipid bilayers were also observed for bovine serum albumin. This explains a strong inhibition of laminin binding by this protein. However, binding of laminin to sulfatide-rich bilayers was not completely inhibited. Observable by the microscopic technique was the formation of laminin clusters on the surface of the bilayer which occurred concomitantly with binding. Both processes were strongly enhanced by the presence of calcium. These results show that calcium-induced laminin self-assembly is enhanced at lipid surfaces.  相似文献
