Gas-phase cigarette smoke (GPCS) was able to induce lipid peroxidation in lecithin liposomes, rat liver microsomes, and rat lung cells (RLC), and change the membrane fluidity of RLCs. Lipid free radicals were trapped in a GPCS-treated microsomal suspension by using 4-POBN as the spin trap. In addition, it was found that GPCS-peroxidized liposomes in appropriate degree of lipid peroxidation had the ability to increase the generation of superoxide anions in rat peritoneal neutrophils (RPN). Effects of green tea polyphenols (GTP) on the GPCS-induced damages were investigated The results showed that GTP was capable of inhibiting the GPCS-induced damages. 相似文献

We have studied the toxicological effects of gas phase cigarette smoke (GPCS) on: 1) lecithin-formed liposome lipid peroxidation;
2) the liposomal membrane fluidity; 3) conformation changes of rat lung cell membrane proteins; and 4) respiratory burst of
human polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The results of these investigations suggested that by stimulating lipid peroxidation,
GPCS can cause changes of membrane fluidity and alterations of membrane protein conformations as well as damages to membrane-bound
enzymes. We conclude that oxidative damage to cells and tissues is an important toxicological property of GPCS. 相似文献

The effect of grape seed extract (GSE) on the lipid peroxidation of rat heart mitochondria was studied using the spin trapping agent α-(4-pyridyl-1-oxide)-N-t-butylnitrone (4-POBN) with electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrometer. Two fatty acid spin labels, 5-doxyl-stearic acid (5-DOXYL) and 16-doxyl-stearic acid (16-DOXYL) were used to study the effect of GSE on mitochondrial membrane fluidity. The results showed that the GSE could scavenge the lipid free radicals generated from the mitochondria of rat heart, and protect the mitochondrial membranes damaged by lipid peroxidation. Both the scavenging effect and the protective effect are better in water phase than in lipid phase. And the data indicate that perhaps triners and other polymers have better scavenging effect on lipid free radicals than monomers. 相似文献

In this study the effects of houttuyfonate homologues (HOU-Cn) on the surface and shape, the lipid fluidity and the protein conformation, the fatty acid compositions and fatty acid synthase II (FAS II) of B. subtilis were studied to elucidate the antibacterial mechanism of HOU-Cn against Bacillus subtilis. The scanning electronic microscope (SEM) results showed that the glycocalyx on the surface of B. subtilis disappeared and the cell became smaller after being treated with HOU-Cn. During the co-incubation of HOU-Cn and B. subtilis, HOU-Cn was decomposed into alkyl acyl aldehyde and sodium sulfite rapidly. Then alkyl acyl aldehyde was congregated onto cell membrane and inserted into lipid bilayer, further increased the fluidity of membrane and changed the conformation of membrane protein by hydrophobic binding. Subsequently, HOU-Cn inhibited the FAS II activity, and decreased the synthesis of fatty acids, especially increased the percentage of saturated fatty acid. HOU-Cn showed a strong antibacterial activity against G+-bacteria by a multi-target antibacterial mechanism. 相似文献

Photofrin®, a photosensitizer used in the photodynamic therapy of cancer, selectively localizes in cellular membranes. Upon exposure to visible light, Photofrin® produces singlet oxygen (1O2), which reacts with membrane polyunsaturated fatty acids forming lipid hydroperoxides. Transition metals, such as Fe2+, catalyze the production of cytotoxic free radicals from lipid hydroperoxides. Ascorbate reduces ferric to ferrous iron, further augmenting lipid peroxidation. Therefore, to increase the efficacy of Photofrin® photosensitization, we added 20 μM ferrous sulfate and 100 μM ascorbic acid, in an aqueous layer over SCC-25 oral squamous cell carcinoma cells during in vitro illumination. In electron paramagnetic resonance spin trapping experiments, using POBN (-(4-pyridyl-1-oxide)-N-tert-butylnitrone), we observed that the presence of this pro-oxidant combination greatly increases the production of membrane-derived lipid free radicals. The effect was time dependent but only partially concentration dependent. Trypan blue dye exclusion demonstrated that this increase in lipid radical formation correlated with cytotoxicity. These observations support the hypothesis that Photofrin® photosensitization leads to lipid hydroperoxide formation, which increases the cell's susceptibility to iron-induced Fenton chemistry. The resulting free radical-mediated lipid peroxidation results in cell death. From these data we hypothesize that the efficacy of photodynamic therapy of superficial cancer might be increased by the topical application of the pro-oxidant combination of iron and ascorbate. Furthermore, their use will probably allow lower doses of Photofrin® without compromising antitumor effect. 相似文献

The phospholipid organization, lipid fluidity and spectrin degradation were measured in human erythrocytes oxidized with phenylhydrazine, and the contribution of these structural alterations to the penetration of perazine and promethazine into the membrane was estimated. It was found that exposure of erythrocytes to phenylhydrazine (0.2--0.4 mg/ml) produced a 35--40% decrease in the amount of spectrin, with resultant gross morphological changes to the echinocyte conformation. The phosphatidylethanolamine content in the treated erythrocytes was greatly lowered compared with that in the untreated cells. Treatment with phenylhydrazine (0.05--0.2 mg/ml) dramatically diminished the lipid fluidity of the membrane, as estimated by electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrometry, and the ESR study revealed increased restriction of the molecular motion of the hydrophobic core in the treated membrane. These results suggest a drastic alteration of the erythrocyte membrane structure. The amount of drugs which penetrated into the treated erythrocytes increased markedly with increasing phenylhydrazine concentration, suggesting enhanced membrane permeability and facilitated localization of the drugs in the hydrophobic regions due to the structural changes and partial disturbance of the lipid organization. 相似文献

Irradiation of cultured human skin fibroblasts with ultraviolet light from 320 to 400 nm (UVA) leads to a decrease in the membrane fluidity exemplified by an enhanced fluorescence anisotropy of the lipophilic fluorescent probe 1-[4-trimethylamino)-phenyl]-6-phenylhexa-1,3,5-triene. This UVA-induced decrease in fluidity is associated with lactate dehydrogenase leakage in the supernatant. Vitamin E, an inhibitor of lipid peroxidation, exerts a protective effect on both phenomena. Therefore, this UVA-induced damage in membrane properties may be related to lipid peroxidation processes. Moreover, exponentially growing cells are more sensitive to these UVA-induced alterations than confluent cells. 相似文献

TAK-218 has a 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-5-amine (coumaran) structure which resembles alpha-tocopherol, and is a promising candidate as an agent for central nervous system (CNS) trauma and ischemia. The radical scavenging activity of TAK-218 was studied using electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. TAK-218 exhibited a more potent scavenging activity towards the hydroxyl radical than did the well-known hydroxyl radical scavengers, mannitol and dimethylsulfoxide. Towards the superoxide radical, TAK-218 showed equal potency to glutathione. TAK-218 reacted rapidly with stable radicals, such as galvinoxyl and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl hydrate (DPPH), and gave the quinone as a two-electron oxidized product in analogy with alpha-tocopherol. To exhibit an excellent antioxidative activity in living systems, the compounds should not only have the intrinsic radical scavenging activity but also good distribution in the biological lipid-bilayer membrane. To examine the antioxidant activity of TAK-218, the inhibition of lipid peroxidation by alpha-tocopherol and TAK-218 in liposomal membranes was studied using an ESR spin-label technique. Both alpha-tocopherol and TAK-218 completely inhibited lipid peroxidation by radicals generated in an aqueous layer using a water-soluble radical initiator, 2,2'-azobis-(2-amidinopropane) hydrochloride (AAPH). At a high incubation temperature (45 degrees C), alpha-tocopherol scavenged radicals more effectively than TAK-218 on the surface of the membrane, while TAK-218 scavenged radicals more effectively in the interior of the membrane. The difference between TAK-218 and alpha-tocopherol for radical scavenging in the membrane system derives from the different distribution pattern of these compounds. TAK-218 can penetrate the membrane freely and can scavenge the radical in the membrane interior. Furthermore, TAK-218 was shown to inhibit lipid peroxidation initiated by a lipid soluble radical initiator, 2,2'-azobis-(2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile) (AMVN), in a membrane more effectively than alpha-tocopherol. 相似文献

The effects of soybean-derived sterylglucoside (SG) on the fluidity of liposomal membrane composed of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) were investigated compared with those of soybean-derived sterol (SS) and cholesterol (Ch) using an electron spin resonance spectrometer. Three kinds of liposomes were prepared in the molar ratio of DPPC/X=7/4, where X is SS, Ch or SG. The fluidity close to the polar head groups increased with an increase of temperature in the DPPC membrane containing SS, Ch and SG in the range 35 to 45 degrees C. Those near the hydrophobic end changed with an increase in temperature in liposomes containing SS, Ch and SG, which had a fluidizing effect on the DPPC membrane below the transition temperature (Tm, 41.9 degrees C) and a condensing effect over the Tm. The fluidizing effects of these compounds around 37 degrees C near the polar head group and the hydrophobic end increased in the following order: Ch < SG < or = SS and SS < Ch < SG, respectively. SG increased the fluidity of liposomal membrane dramatically above the Tm (35.4 degrees C). These results suggest that the high fluidity close to the hydrophobic end of the liposomal membranes around 37 degrees C, the decrease of Tm, and the sigmoidal nature of fluidity vs. temperature are important factors in the effectiveness of liposomes containing SG as a carrier of drugs. 相似文献

Adriamycin (ADR) is a powerful and widely used antitumor drug, but its dose dependent cardiotoxicity limits its application. This side effect is believed to be caused by the adriamycin semiquinone free radical (ASFR). The primary focus of this work is to test effects of sodium tanshinone IIA sulfonate (STS) on ASFR and adriamycin–induced lipid peroxidation. It was found that ADR, whether in the system of heart homogenate, heart mitochondria or heart submitochondria, with NADH as the substrate or in xanthine/xanthine oxidase under anaerobic conditions, all produced ASFR rapidly. STS was shown to effectively scavenge ASFR in all these systems and postpone the appearance of ASFR. The delayed time was proportional to the amount of STS. Under aerobic conditions, ASFR could be oxidized to generate oxygen free radicals. STS could not scavenge these oxygen free radicals, but it could effectively scavenge lipid free radicals generated from membrane lipid peroxidation of heart mitochondria. STS could significantly reduce mitochondrial swelling and lipid peroxidation induced by ADR. Animal experiments show that treatment of STS could inhibit endogenous lipid peroxidation caused by ADR. Here, a protective mechanism of STS is suggested that STS can rapidly and univalently oxidize ASFR, causing the cycle of adriamycin between its quinone form and semiquinone form and inhibiting the accumulation of ASFR. Under aerobic condition, STS can protect heart mitochondria by scavenging lipid free radicals generated from adriamycin-induced mitochondrial lipid peroxidation. This investigation shows that STS may be a physiological drug to antagonize the cardiotoxicity of ADR. 相似文献

The understanding of biomolecular function is coupled to knowledge about the structure and dynamics of these biomolecules, preferably acquired under native conditions. In this regard, pulsed dipolar EPR spectroscopy (PDS) in conjunction with site‐directed spin labeling (SDSL) is an important method in the toolbox of biophysical chemistry. However, the currently available spin labels have diverse deficiencies for in‐cell applications, for example, low radical stability or long bioconjugation linkers. In this work, a synthesis strategy is introduced for the derivatization of trityl radicals with a maleimide‐functionalized methylene group. The resulting trityl spin label, called SLIM, yields narrow distance distributions, enables highly sensitive distance measurements down to concentrations of 90 nm , and shows high stability against reduction. Using this label, the guanine‐nucleotide dissociation inhibitor (GDI) domain of Yersinia outer protein O (YopO) is shown to change its conformation within eukaryotic cells. 相似文献

Protective effects of EPC-K1 (L-ascorbic acid 2-[3,4-dihydro-2,5,7,8-tetramethyl-2-(4,8,12-trimethyldecyl)-2H-1-benzopyran-6-yl-hydrogen phosphate] potassium salt, a difunctional derivative of vitamin C and vitamin E) on neuronal cell damage mediated by peroxynitrite were studied. Primary cultures of cerebellar granule cells were exposed to peroxynitrite by treatment with 3-morpholinosydnonimine-N-ethylcarbamide (SIN-1), which generated nitric oxide and superoxide anion simultaneously upon decomposition. The results showed that SIN-1 treatment triggered time-dependent cell death, which was accompanied by the decrease in the cellular GSH level, the increase in the lipid peroxidation level, and the alteration of cell membrane biophysical characteristics. EPC-K1 showed only moderate scavenging effect on peroxynitrite, but could effectively protect neuronal cells from oxidative damage mediated by peroxynitrite. 相似文献

This study investigated the effect of type 1 gonadotropin releasing hormone receptor (GnRH-R) localization within lipid rafts on the properties of plasma membrane (PM) nanodomain structure. Confocal microscopy revealed colocalization of PM-localized GnRH-R with GM1-enriched raft-like PM subdomains. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) of a membrane-partitioned spin probe was then used to study PM fluidity of immortalized pituitary gonadotrope cell line αT3-1 and HEK-293 cells stably expressing GnRH-R and compared it with their corresponding controls (αT4 and HEK-293 cells). Computer-assisted interpretation of EPR spectra revealed three modes of spin probe movement reflecting the properties of three types of PM nanodomains. Domains with an intermediate order parameter (domain 2) were the most affected by the presence of the GnRH-Rs, which increased PM ordering (order parameter (S)) and rotational mobility of PM lipids (decreased rotational correlation time (τc)). Depletion of cholesterol by methyl-β-cyclodextrin (methyl-β-CD) inhibited agonist-induced GnRH-R internalization and intracellular Ca2+ activity and resulted in an overall reduction in PM order; an observation further supported by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of model membrane systems. This study provides evidence that GnRH-R PM localization may be related to a subdomain of lipid rafts that has lower PM ordering, suggesting lateral heterogeneity within lipid raft domains. 相似文献

In this work an alkaline protease, alcalase, was used to hydrolyze the separated soybean protein at 50℃, pH 8.0. The dependence of hydrolysis time on hydrolysis degree, relative antioxidative activity was examined. The antioxidative activity of the hydrolysate reached the maximum after the hydrolysis for two hours, then decreased. The hydrolysate hydrolyzed for two hours was isolated on a Sephadex G-25 column. The range of molecular weight for the collected fractions was 100-1 300. A fur ther purification of the isolated antioxidative peptides was conducted on a CM-Cellulose column. Two active peaks were observed. One of them was taken to investigate the antioxidative properties for in vitro model systems. It was found that the autoxidation rate of pyrogallol under the alkaline condition was decreased by, at least, 10%, indicating that some free radicals in the tested system were removed. In the experiment of the antihemolysis of erythrocyte, it was observed that the hemolysis degree of erythrocyte caused by hydroxyl free radicals was decreased obviously. This result indicates the protective effect of the antioxidative peptides on the cell membrane damage of erythrocyte. Moreover, it was also found that the membrane fluidity could be depressed after a solution of the antioxidative peptides was mixed with a liposome solution, indicating that the antioxidative peptides could fur ther inhibit the membrane damage caused by lipid peroxidation when the small molecules of antioxidative peptides were embedded in liposome. 相似文献

The change in fluidity by adding pentoxifylline to erythrocyte membranes was compared with that caused by S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) by the method of electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. When SAM or pentoxifylline was added externally to the erythrocyte suspension (outside), the fluidity of the membrane bilayer was increased after incubation at 37 degrees C. However, the fluidity change in the inner part of the bilayer was relatively small compared to that in its outer part. These fluidity changes were dependent on the incubation time and the temperature. When the erythrocyte suspension was preincubated overnight at 4 degrees C in the presence of drugs (inside), the fluidity of the inner part of the membrane changed significantly. Nevertheless, that of the outer part of the lipid bilayer was not affected. Such an asymmetric fluidity change in the lipid bilayer was not observed by the addition of other xanthine derivatives such as caffeine, theophylline and theobromine. S-Adenosyl-L-homocysteine suppressed and MgCl2 enhanced the increase of the membrane fluidity by SAM or pentoxifylline. Furthermore, the effects of SAM and pentoxifylline on erythrocyte deformability were determined by a filtering technique method. In increasing order the additive effects of SAM and pentoxifylline on the erythrocyte filterability were SAM (outside) less than pentoxifylline (inside) less than pentoxifylline (outside) less than SAM (inside). These results suggest that pentoxifylline also affects the membrane fluidity through the enzymatic methylation of phospholipids. 相似文献

Since the inhibitory effect of eugenol (a), which was isolated as an antioxidative component from plant, Caryopylli flos, on lipid peroxidation was less than that of alpha-tocopherol, we synthesized the eugenol-related compounds dieugenol (b), tetrahydrodieugenol (c), and dihydroeugenol (d), to find new strong antioxidants and assessed them for their inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation and scavenging ability for superoxide and hydroxyl radicals. The antioxidative activities were in the order: (b)>(c)>(d)>(a) for the thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) formation. These results suggest that the dimerized compounds have higher antioxidant activities than that of the monomers. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spin trapping experiments revealed that eugenol and its dimer, having allyl groups in the structure, scavenged superoxide, and that only eugenol trapped hydroxyl radicals under the conditions used. These finding suggest that eugenol and dieugenol have a different mechanism of antioxidation, i.e. eugenol may inhibit lipid peroxidation at the level of initiation, however, the related dimeric compounds may inhibit lipid peroxidation at the level of propagation of free radical chain reaction like alpha-tocopherol. 相似文献

Free radicals formed by addition of antimalaric artemisinin (Qinghaosu,QHS) to human serum: an ESR-spin trapping investigation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The antimalaric drug artemisinin (QHS) is believed to operate through a mechanism initiated with the cleavage of its endoperoxidic bond induced by transition metal ions. An ESR investigation of the reaction of QHS with human serum in the presence of two spin trapping agents has led to the detection of spin adducts of carbon-centred radicals. Experiments carried out replacing the human serum with iron(II) salts led to the observation of the same spin adducts, thus supporting previous suggestions that alsoin vivo the drug operatesvia a radical-based mechanism. UV irradiation of QHS also led to the trapping of transient free radicals. 相似文献

Selenium-containing abzyme (m4G3) was prepared and its protection of myocardial mitochondria against oxidative damage was
studied using the swelling of mitochondria, quantity of lipid peroxidation products, and change in cytochrome-c oxidase activity as a measure of mitochondrial damage. The results showed that m4G3 could inhibit mitochondrial damage caused
by the hypoxanthine-xanthine oxidase system in vitro. Electronic spin resonance (ESR) studies demonstrated that m4G3 could
decrease the amount of free radicals generated in the damage system. 相似文献

The effect of the symmetry and polarity of the porphyrin molecules on their membrane localization and interaction with membrane lipids were investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). For this purpose, two glycoconjugated tetraphenyl porphyrin derivatives were selected, respectively, symmetrically and asymmetrically substituted. Small unilamellar liposomes composed of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and spin labeled stearic acids were prepared. The spin probe was located at the 5th or 7th or 12th or 16th position of the hydrocarbon chain in order to monitor various regions of the lipid bilayer. EPR spectra of porphyrin-free and porphyrin-bound liposomes were recorded at various temperatures below and above the phase transition temperature of DPPC. The effect on membrane fluidity proved to be stronger with the asymmetrical porphyrin derivative than with the symmetrical one. The rigidity increased when the spin label was near lipid head groups. The difference observed between control and porphyrin-treated samples when measured below the main lipid transition temperature disappeared at higher temperature. When the spin label was near the end of the hydrophobic tails, the symmetrical porphyrin derivative caused increase in fluidity, while the asymmetrical one slightly decreased it. To explain this phenomenon we propose that the asymmetrical derivative exerts a stronger ordering effect caused by its fluorophenyl group located at the level of the lipid heads, which is attenuated to the hydrophobic tails. The perturbing effect of the symmetric derivative could not lead to similar extent of ordering at the head groups and looses the hydrocarbon chains deeper in the membrane. 相似文献
