Reaction of retinol with peroxynitrite.
The reactivity of retinol with peroxynitrite, which is a strong oxidant and has been reported to induce several biological damages, was investigated. 13-cis-14-nitroretinol (1), 13-trans-14-nitroretinol (2), 13-apo-beta-carotenone (3), retinal (4), 11,14-epoxyretinol (5), and 11,15-epoxyretinol (6) were identified as reaction products of retinol with peroxynitrite. From these results, it was ob...
متن کاملReaction of superoxide and nitric oxide with peroxynitrite. Implications for peroxynitrite-mediated oxidation reactions in vivo.
Peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)/ONOOH), the product of the diffusion-limited reaction of nitric oxide (*NO) with superoxide (O(-*)(2)), has been implicated as an important mediator of tissue injury during conditions associated with enhanced *NO and O(-*)(2) production. Although several groups of investigators have demonstrated substantial oxidizing and cytotoxic activities of chemically synthesized pero...
متن کاملAnti-Oxidative, Anti-Tumor-Promoting, and Anti-Carcinogensis Activities of Nitroastaxanthin and Nitrolutein, the Reaction Products of Astaxanthin and Lutein with Peroxynitrite
Astaxanthin captured peroxynitrite to form nitroastaxanthins. 15-Nitroastaxanthin was a major reaction product of astaxanthin with peroxynitrite. Here, the anti-oxidative, anti-tumor-promoting, and anti-carcinogensis activities of 15-nitroastaxanthin were investigated. In addition to astaxanthin, 15-nitroastaxanthin showed excellent singlet oxygen quenching activity. Furthermore, 15-nitroastaxa...
متن کاملFluorimetric determination of peroxynitrite based on an enzymatic reaction.
A novel fluorimetric method for the determination of peroxynitrite (ONOO-) using hemoglobin (Hb) as a catalyst is described. The method employs the reaction of ONOO with thiamine (TM), a colorless, non-fluorescent reagent in a glycine-NaCl-NaOH buffer solution (pH 12.7), to generate a highly fluorescent product, thiochrome (TC). The fluorescent product was monitored by fluorimetry. A linear cal...
متن کاملQM-MM Investigation of the Reaction of Peroxynitrite with Carbon Dioxide in Water.
We have investigated the reaction of peroxynitrite with carbon dioxide in aqueous solution by means of combined quantum-classical (QM-MM) molecular dynamics simulations. In our QM-MM scheme, the reactant was modeled using density functional theory with a Gaussian basis set, and the solvent was described using the mean-field TIP4P force field. The free energy profile of this reaction has been co...
