Extraction methods determine the antioxidant capacity and induction of quinone reductase by soy products in vitro.
Gastrointestinal (GI) mimic and organic solvent extracts of whole soybean powder (WSP), soy protein concentrate (SPC), and soy protein isolate (SPI) as well as soy isoflavone concentrate (SIC) were analyzed for total phenols; quinone reductase (QR) induction in hepa1c1c7 cells; antioxidant scavenging of DPPH, HOCl, ONOO(-), and O(2) (-.); and total antioxidant capacity via FRAP and ORAC assays....
متن کاملNaphthoquinone-dependent generation of superoxide radicals by quinone reductase isolated from the plasma membrane of soybean.
Using a tetrazolium-based assay, a NAD(P)H oxidoreductase was purified from plasma membranes prepared from soybean (Glycine max) hypocotyls. The enzyme, a tetramer of 85 kD, produces O2(.-) by a reaction that depended on menadione or several other 1,4-naphthoquinones, in apparent agreement with a classification as a one-electron-transferring flavoenzyme producing semiquinone radicals. However, ...
متن کاملNADPH cytochrome P-450 reductase activation of quinone anticancer agents to free radicals.
With NADPH as the electron donor, rat liver NADPH cytochrome P-450 reductase (NADPH:ferricytochrome oxidoreductase, EC 1.6.2.4) catalyzes the single-electron reduction of several quinone antibiotics to a semiquinone or free radical state. The benzanthraquinones adriamycin, daunorubicin, carminomycin, 7-O-methylnogalarol, and aclacinomycin A and the N-heterocyclic quinones streptonigrin and mito...
متن کاملMicrobial glycolipids: possible virulence factors that scavenge oxygen radicals.
Two important pathogens of developing countries, Mycobacterium leprae, the etiologic agent of leprosy, and Leishmania donovani, the protozoal parasite that causes kalaazar, persist in the human host primarily in mononuclear phagocytes. The mechanisms by which they survive in these otherwise highly cytocidal cells are presently unknown. Since the best understood cytocidal mechanism of these cell...
متن کاملThe retinal carotenoids zeaxanthin and lutein scavenge superoxide and hydroxyl radicals: a chemiluminescence and ESR study.
PURPOSE Carotenoids are present in many biological systems, often decreasing the formation of products of oxidative damage to biological molecules. In the macula their concentration is so high that it has been believed that the yellow color filters out damaging blue light. Recent reports that dietary lutein reduces the risk of cataract in the eye lens suggested that the antioxidant action of ca...
