Enhancement by glucose of low density lipoprotein-oxidation by peroxynitrite.
Oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) by copper ions is not influenced by glucose in a concentration range between 1 and 20 mM. LDL-oxidation by peroxynitrite or the simultaneous action of nitrogen monoxide and superoxide, produced by morpholino-sydnonimine (SIN-1) is considerably enhanced by typical hydroxyl-radical scavengers such as formate or mannitol and by glucose. Since both free ra...
متن کاملPathways of peroxynitrite oxidation of thiol groups.
Peroxynitrite mediates the oxidation of the thiol group of both cysteine and glutathione. This process is associated with oxygen consumption. At acidic pH and a cysteine/peroxynitrite molar ratio of < or = 1.2, there was a single fast phase of oxygen consumption, which increased with increasing concentrations of both cysteine and oxygen. At higher molar ratios the profile of oxygen consumption ...
متن کاملOxidation of hypotaurine and cysteine sulphinic acid by peroxynitrite.
Peroxynitrite mediates the oxidation of the sulphinic group of both HTAU (hypotaurine) and CSA (cysteine sulphinic acid), producing the respective sulphonates, TAU (taurine) and CA (cysteic acid). The reaction is associated with extensive oxygen uptake, suggesting that HTAU and CSA are oxidized by the one-electron transfer mechanism to sulphonyl radicals, which may initiate an oxygen-dependent ...
متن کاملReactivities and Products of Free Radical Oxidation of Cholestadienols
7-Dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC) is the most oxidizable lipid molecule reported to date, with a propagation rate constant for free radical peroxidation that is 200 times that of cholesterol. To better understand the high reactivity of 7-DHC and elucidate the reaction mechanism, we synthesized conjugated and skipped nonconjugated cholestadienols that would give one of the two putative pentadienyl-ra...
متن کاملAscorbate is a potent antioxidant against peroxynitrite-induced oxidation reactions. Evidence that ascorbate acts by re-reducing substrate radicals produced by peroxynitrite.
Peroxynitrite (ONOO(((-)))/ONOOH) is expected in vivo to react predominantly with CO(2), thereby yielding NO(2)(.) and CO(3) radicals. We studied the inhibitory effects of ascorbate on both NADH and dihydrorhodamine 123 (DHR) oxidation by peroxynitrite generated in situ from 3-morpholinosydnonimine N-ethylcarbamide (SIN-1). SIN-1 (150 micrometer)-mediated oxidation of NADH (200 micrometer) was ...
