Spin trapping evidence for myeloperoxidase-dependent hydroxyl radical formation by human neutrophils and monocytes.
Using the electron spin resonance/spin trapping system, 4-pyridyl 1-oxide N-tert-butylnitrone (4-POBN)/ethanol, hydroxyl radical was detected as the alpha-hydroxyethyl spin trapped adduct of 4-POBN, 4-POBN-CH(CH3)OH, from phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-stimulated human neutrophils and monocytes without the addition of supplemental iron. 4-POBN-CH(CH3)OH was stable in the presence of a neutroph...
متن کاملCharacterization of free radical generation by xanthine oxidase. Evidence for hydroxyl radical generation.
Xanthine oxidase has been hypothesized to be an important source of biological free radical generation. The enzyme generates the superoxide radical, .O2- and has been widely applied as a .O2- generating system; however, the enzyme may also generate other forms of reduced oxygen. We have applied electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy using the spin trap 5,5'-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-ox...
متن کاملEvidence for hydroxyl radical production by human neutrophils.
The possibility that neutrophils produce the hydroxyl radical (OH-) was studied by examining the ability of these cells to support the release of ethylene from methional, a reaction in which it has been shown that OH-, but not O2- or H2O2, may serve as the oxidizing agent. When neutrophils were exposed to opsonized zymosan in the presence of 0.35 mM methional, ethylene was released in quantitie...
متن کاملHuman granulocyte generation of hydroxyl radical
Human granulocytes were capable of oxidizing 2-keto-4 thiomethylbutyric acid to ethylene during phagocytosis or membrane perturbation. The reaction required hydrogen peroxide and superoxide and in addition was inhibited by various hydroxyl radical (OH) scavengers. These observations represent direct evidence for the generation of OH by human granulocytes. Further, inhibition of ethylene generat...
متن کاملHydroxyl radical generation by photosystem II.
The photogeneration of hydroxyl radicals (OH(*)) in photosystem II (PSII) membranes was studied using EPR spin-trapping spectroscopy. Two kinetically distinguishable phases in the formation of the spin trap-hydroxyl (POBN-OH) adduct EPR signal were observed: the first phase (t(1/2) = 7.5 min) and the second phase (t(1/2) = 30 min). The generation of OH(*) was found to be suppressed in the absen...
