چکیده

Participation of singlet molecular oxygen (1O2) in peroxidation of dopa and dopamine was studied by measurements of chemiluminescence spectra, the influence of solvents with various lifetime of O2 (1 delta g) and O2 (1 delta g)-quenchers on quantum yield of chemiluminescence. A decrease of absorption and fluorescence intensities of 1,3-diphenylizobenzofuran (DPBF) was also studied in the presence of dopa and dopamine oxidized with alkaline H2O2 as a criterion for the involvement of 1O2.

The formation of singlet oxygen during oxidation of catechol amines as detected by infrared chemiluminescence and spectrophotometric method.

1 delta g----3 sigma-g near infrared chemiluminescence from the peroxidation reaction of dopa, dopamine, noradrenaline and adrenaline was measured. The spectrophotometric method based on the bleaching of p-nitrosodimethylaniline was applied to check the generation of singlet oxygen during oxidation of the above-mentioned catecholamines.

Singlet oxygen production associated with enzyme-catalyzed lipid peroxidation in liver microsomes.

Evidence for the formation of singlet oxygen during the oxidation of NADPH by liver microsomes is presented. The evidence is based primarily on the enzyme-dependent formation of dibenzoylethylene from diphenylfuran, a reaction which is specific for singlet oxygen. The apparent formation of singlet oxygen is coupled to the occurrence of peroxidation of microsomal lipid, a phenomenon known to be ...

Singlet oxygen generation from poly[4-diacetoxyiodo]styrene and hydrogen peroxide

Treatment of hydrogen peroxide with a polymer-supported hypervalent iodine compound, poly[4-diacetoxyiodo] styrene (PDAIS), generates singlet molecular oxygen (O2) . Singlet oxygen generation was proved by trapping with typical organic compounds such as conjugated dienes, aromatic dienes, and electron-rich alkene. When compared to monomer analogue, the use of PDAIS in peroxidation of substrates...

A potential role for cyclized quinones derived from dopamine, DOPA, and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid in proteasomal inhibition.

We examined the ability of oxidation products of dopamine, DOPA, and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) to inhibit proteasomal activity. Dopamine, DOPA, and DOPAC underwent tyrosinase-catalyzed oxidation to generate aminochrome, dopachrome, and furanoquinone, respectively. In these studies, the oxidation of dopamine by tyrosinase generated product(s) that inhibited the proteasome, and prote...

Photosensitization of coronene–purine hybrids for photodynamic therapy

Photosensitization properties of coronene-purine (Cor-P) hybrids for photodynamic therapy (PDT) have been investigated in this work. Eight hybrid Cor-P models have been designed by the additional of adenine (A) and guanine (G) nucleobase to Cor species. The evaluated absorption and emission energies indicated that the singular models are not good at all for PDT process whereas their hybrid mode...
