Abstract: | Lipid peroxidation induced by Fe2+ADP in soybean mitochondriais stimulated by pyruvate, malate (in the presence of NAD2+)and by NAD(P)H. This lipid peroxidation is almost completelyinhibited by EDTA indicating that iron is essential. Also salicylhydroxamicacid, a specific inhibitor of the alternate oxidase, is a stronginhibitor of lipid peroxidation but its effect should be relatedto chelation or to a general antioxidant action. Rotenone doesnot show any effect on the malateNAD2+Fe2+ADP-induced lipidperoxidation. From the reported data, it is possible to concludethat, in soybean mitochondria, the peroxidation of unsaturatedlipids can be modulated through a balance between the systemssparking lipid peroxidation, like NAD(P)H Fe2+ADP, and the systemswhich protect against it, i.e. quinones, maintained at the reducedstate by the substrates.
