Oxidative susceptibility of low density lipoprotein subfractions is related to their ubiquinol-10 and alpha-tocopherol content.
The conjugated polyene fatty acid parinaric acid (PnA) undergoes a stoichiometric loss in fluorescence upon oxidation and can be used to directly monitor peroxidative stress within lipid environments. We evaluated the course of potentially atherogenic oxidative changes in low density lipoproteins (LDL) by monitoring the oxidation of PnA following its incorporation into buoyant (p = 1.026-1.032 ...
متن کاملEffects of Vitamin E and Volatile Oils on the Susceptibility of Low-Density Lipoprotein to Oxidative Modification
Antioxidant consumption has been reported to be inversely associated with the incidence of coronary artery disease. To clarify the possible role of vitamin E and volatile oils in the prevention of atherosclerosis, the effects of these compounds on the susceptibility of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) to oxidative modification were investigated. In this study, vitamin E and seven volatile oils “an...
متن کاملEffect of dietary supplementation with alpha-tocopherol on the oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein.
Much data has accumulated supporting a proatherogenic role for oxidized low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL). Micronutrient antioxidants such as alpha-tocopherol, the principal lipid-soluble antioxidant, assume potential significance because levels can be manipulated by dietary measures without resulting in side effects. Co-incubation of LDL in vitro with alpha-tocopherol inhibits its oxidative mod...
متن کاملAlpha-tocopherol consumption during low-density-lipoprotein oxidation.
1. The kinetics of the depletion of alpha-tocopherol in human low-density lipoprotein (LDL) were measured during macrophage-mediated and cell-free oxidation. The formation of oxidatively modified, high-uptake species of LDL in these systems was not detectable until all of the endogenous alpha-tocopherol had been consumed. 2. Supplementation of the alpha-tocopherol content of LDL by loading in v...
متن کاملThe Effect of ? -Tocopherol on Copper Binding to Low Density Lipoprotein
The oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein (LDL) may play an important role in atherogenesis. Antioxidants that can prevent LDL oxidation may act as antiatherogens. Our understanding of the mechanism of LDL oxidation and factors that determine its susceptibility to oxidation is still incomplete. Copper is a candidate for oxidizing LDL in atherosclerotic lesions. The binding of copper...
