  • Lipid Peroxidation As a Biochemical Marker for Oxidative Stress During Drought
    LIPID PEROXIDATION AS A BIOCHEMICAL MARKER FOR OXIDATIVE STRESS DURING DROUGHT. AN EFFECTIVE TOOL FOR PLANT BREEDING. Mateusz Labudda Department of Biochemistry, Warsaw University of Life Sciences – SGGW, Nowoursynowska 159, 02–776 Warsaw, Poland e–mail: [email protected] Key words: abiotic stress, crop breeding, lipid oxidation, malondialdehyde, reactive oxygen species, water deficit Abstract Oxidative stress can be induced by a wide range of environmental factors, including drought. One of the main cellular components susceptible to damage by reactive oxygen species are lipids (by peroxidation of unsaturated fatty acids in biological membranes). The assay of Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances (TBARS) is a well–established method for monitoring lipid peroxidation. This relatively simple analytical protocol facilitates extensive screening research in plant breeding. Suggested citation: Labudda M. (2013): Lipid peroxidation as a biochemical marker for oxidative stress during drought. An effective tool for plant breeding. E-wydawnictwo, Poland, http://www.e-wydawnictwo.eu/Document/DocumentPreview/3342 1 Introduction Higher plants have developed the ability to adapt to external, and frequently harmful, environmental factors. Drought is considered to be one of the major sources of environmental stress. It seriously affects crop productivity by inhibiting plant growth and development (Anjum et al. 2011a) and results in a 50% or more reduction in average yields (Wang et al. 2003). Water stress inhibits photosynthesis, induces changes in chlorophyll content and composition, and damages the photosynthetic apparatus (Nayyar & Gupta 2006). Furthermore, dehydration of tissue inhibits photochemical activities and brings about a reduction in the activity of Calvin–Benson–Basshamn cycle enzymes (Monakhova & Chernyadev 2002). It is well established that chloroplast, mitochondria and peroxisomes are a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plant cells.

The chances of surviving cancer and its prognosis are very dependent on the affected tissue, body location, and stage at which the disease is diagnosed. Researchers and pharmaceutical companies worldwide are pursuing many attempts to look for compounds to treat this malignancy. Most of the current strategies to fight cancer implicate the use of compounds acting on DNA damage checkpoints, non-receptor tyrosine kinases activities, regulators of the hedgehog signaling pathways, and metabolic adaptations placed in cancer. In the last decade, the finding of a lipid peroxidation increase linked to 15-lipoxygenases isoform 1 (15-LOX-1) activity stimulation has been found in specific successful treatments against cancer. This discovery contrasts with the production of other lipid oxidation signatures generated by stimulation of other lipoxygenases such as 5-LOX and 12-LOX, and cyclooxygenase (COX-2) activities, which have been suggested as cancer biomarkers and which inhibitors present anti-tumoral and antiproliferative activities.

A major way by which the latter can provoke structural damage to biological macromolecules, such as DNA, lipids, and proteins, is by fueling the peroxidation of membrane lipids, leading to the production of several reactive aldehydes. Lipid peroxidation-derived aldehydes can not only modify biological macromolecules, by forming covalent electrophilic addition products with them, but also act as second messengers of oxidative stress, having relatively extended lifespans. Their effects might be further enhanced with aging, as their concentrations in cells and biological fluids increase with age.

Several risk factors are associated with endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis, such as hypertension, dyslipidaemia, inflammation, oxidative stress, and advanced glycation-end products. Among these risk factors, oxidative stress is the largest contributor to the formation of atherosclerotic plaques. Measurement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is still difficult, and assays for the measurement of ROS have failed to show a consistent correlation between pathological states and oxidative stress. To solve this problem, this review summarizes the current knowledge on biomarkers of oxidative stress, especially lipid peroxidation, and discusses the roles of oxidative stress, as measured by indices of lipid peroxidation, in diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, and chronic inflammation.

Abstract -- To explore mechanisms of free radical reactions leading to intracellular lipid peroxidation in living systems, we developed a computational model of up to 109 simultaneous enzymatic and free radical reactions thought to be involved in the initiation, propagation, and termination of membrane lipid peroxidation. Rate constants for the various reactions were obtained from the published literature. The simulation model included a lipid membrane compartment and an aqueous cytosolic compartment, between which various chemical species were partitioned. Lipid peroxidation was initiated by the iron-catalyzed, superoxide-driven Fenton reaction.

  • Erythrocyte Membrane Fatty Acid Composition of Smokers and Non-Smokers: Effects of Vitamin E Supplementation
    European Journal of Clinical Nutrition (1998) 52, 145±150 ß 1998 Stockton Press. All rights reserved 0954±3007/98 $12.00 Erythrocyte membrane fatty acid composition of smokers and non-smokers: effects of vitamin E supplementation KM Brown, PC Morrice and GG Duthie Rowett Research Institute, Greenburn Road, Bucksburn, Aberdeen AB2 9SB, Scotland, UK Objective: Adequate dietary intakes of vitamin E and essential polyunsaturated fatty acids are important to maintain cell membrane integrity, and de®ciencies have been associated with smoking related cardiovascular disease. Suf®cient vitamin E is required to prevent free radical mediated peroxidation of membrane lipids. Consequently, smokers may have a greater requirement for this antioxidant. To investigate, we assessed the concurrent in¯uences of smoking, vitamin E supplementation and red blood cell (RBC) PUFA composition on the susceptibility of the cells to lipid peroxidation in adult males. Design and subjects: Thirty male smokers and thirty male non-smokers were randomly ascribed to daily 280 mg vitamin E or placebo supplements for 10 weeks. RBC were analysed at weeks 0 and 10 for fatty acid methyl esters, vitamin E, and their susceptibility to in vitro H2O2 induced lipid peroxidation. Results: Concentrations of essential fatty acids (EFA) in RBC were lower in smokers than in non-smokers. Supplementation with vitamin E increased levels of RBC EFA in smokers to match those of non-smokers. Furthermore, the ratio of vitamin E to PUFA in RBC from smokers and non-smokers was inversely correlated with their susceptibility to peroxidation. Conclusions: An adequate vitamin E to PUFA ratio is required to protect cell membranes from oxidative damage.
