Hydrogen sulfide destroys lipid hydroperoxides in oxidized LDL.
LOOHs (lipid hydroperoxides) in oxLDL [oxidized LDL (low-density lipoprotein)] are potentially atherogenic compounds. Recently, H2S was identified as the third endogenous gasotransmitter in the vasculature. H2O2 is known to be destroyed by H2S. Assuming that H2S may also react with LOOHs, the results show that H2S can destroy LOOHs in oxLDL. The ability of LOOH-enriched LDL to induce HO-1 (haem...
متن کاملCarbon monoxide-driven reduction of ferric heme and heme proteins.
Oxidized cytochrome c oxidase in a carbon monoxide atmosphere slowly becomes reduced as shown by changes in its visible spectra and its reactivity toward oxygen. The "auto-reduction" of cytochrome c oxidase by this procedure has been used to prepare mixed valence hybrids. We have found that this process is a general phenomenon for oxygen-binding heme proteins, and even for isolated hemin in bas...
متن کاملLipid hydroperoxides in plants.
Hydroperoxides are the primary oxygenated products of polyunsaturated fatty acids and were determined spectrophotometrically based on their reaction with an excess of Fe2+ at low pH in the presence of the dye Xylenol Orange. Triphenylphosphine-mediated hydroxide formation was used to authenticate the signal generated by the hydroperoxides. The method readily detected lipid peroxidation in a ran...
متن کاملFor CO2 Reduction, Hydrogen-Bond Donors Do the Trick
Carbon dioxide is the major pollutant responsible for climate change, an unfortunate byproduct of powering our society with fossil fuels. There is currently great interest in applying renewable energy to capture and reduce CO2 to provide carbon-neutral fuels. This approach mimics natural photosynthesis, which utilizes CO2 for energy storage and as a structural building block. Achieving this goa...
متن کاملPreparation of pure lipid hydroperoxides.
Increasing evidence of lipid peroxidation in food deterioration and pathophysiology of diseases have revealed the need for a pure lipid hydroperoxide (LOOH) reference as an authentic standard for quantification and as a compound for biological studies in this field. Generally, LOOH is prepared from photo- or enzymatically oxidized lipids; however, separating LOOH from other oxidation products a...
