Abstract: | We have synthesized a new water-soluble cationic Mn-porphyrin with catalytic activity for both superoxide dismutation and peroxynitrite decomposition. The resulting Mn-porphyrin also showed higher stability for reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide and lower cytotoxicity, when compared with a control normal Mn-porphyrin. Furthermore, the new porphyrin recovered the viability of lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophage RAW 264.7 cells but the control Mn-porphyrin did not. |
