Abstract
Tamoxifen is the most widely used antiestrogen in the treatment of breast cancer. In this work, we have studied its antioxidant properties. We have investigated the ability of tamoxifen to scavenge, in vitro, ·OH and (or) HO·2 free radicals that are produced by water radiolysis. Aqueous solutions of tamoxifen of concentrations ranging between 10-5 and 2.5 × 10-5 M have been irradiated (γ 137Cs) in aerated acidic medium (H3PO4 10-3 M or HCOOH 10-1 M). The results show that tamoxifen reacts quantitatively with ·OH free radicals but does not react with HO·2 free radicals under our experimental conditions.Key words: tamoxifen, antioxidant, oxygenated free radicals, radiolysis.

Abstract
Aqueous solutions of linoleic acid were irradiated in air with γ-rays of 137Cs. High pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) was been used to separate and measure the production of hydroperoxides. The results obtained after reverse phase chromatography, associated with a microperoxydase for hydroperoxide detection, indicate the presence of two different hydroperoxides. One type of hydroperoxide was the major product obtained when the initial linoleic concentrations were below the critical micellar concentration (2 mM), and the second type was produced when the concentrations were above 2 mM. A further separation carried out on the second hydroperoxide by direct phase HPLC showed that it contains three compounds, mainly HPODE 9 and 13.Key words: linoleic acid, peroxidation, hydroperoxide, direct phase HPLC, reverse phase HPLC.

Abstract
This study was designed to evaluate the effect of ethanol on the peroxidation of human low-density lipoprotein (LDL) initiated by oxygen free radicals (O(2)(.-) and (.)OH in the absence of ethanol; O(2)(.-) and ethanol-derived peroxyl radicals, RO(2)(.), in the presence of ethanol) generated by gamma radiolysis. Initial radiolytic yields as determined by several markers of lipid peroxidation [i.e. decrease in endogenous antioxidants alpha-tocopherol and beta-carotene, formation of conjugated dienes and of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS)] were determined in 3 g liter(-1) LDLs (expressed as total LDL concentration) in the absence of ethanol or its presence at six different concentrations (0.42-17 x 10(-2) mol liter(-1)). Ethanol acted as an antioxidant by decreasing the rate of consumption of LDL endogenous antioxidants and the yields of formation of lipid peroxidation products, and by delaying the onset of the propagation phase for conjugated dienes and TBARS. With regard to the different markers studied, except for alpha-tocopherol and beta-carotene consumption, the effect of ethanol did not appear to be dependent on its concentration. Indeed, (.)OH were scavenged by ethanol at the lowest ethanol concentration (0.42 x 10(-2) mol liter(-1)), leading to RO(2)(.). These RO(2)(.) resulted in lower radiation-induced yields related to endogenous antioxidant consumption or to formation of lipid peroxidation products (for example, approximately 10% of RO(2)(.) oxidized LDLs from TBARS). Thus, under our in vitro conditions, ethanol behaved as an antioxidant when added to the LDL solutions. This should be taken into account in the reported antioxidant activity of wine. This is also of interest when lipophilic compounds have to be added as ethanolic solutions to LDLs to evaluate in vitro their antioxidant activity toward LDL peroxidation.

Abstract
The radiolysis of water with heavy ions of high linear energy transfer (LET) (-dE/dx) is characterized, in deaerated medium, by the production of superoxide anions, the radiolytic yields of which increase with the LET. Radiobiological interest in such radical species comes from the oxidative stress which may be generated by their dismutation in O2 and H2O2 in anoxic medium (radiotherapy with heavy ions). A brief review of the measurements of superoxide free radicals in aqueous solution by indirect or direct methods is presented. Moreover, some experimental results obtained by pulse radiolysis with Ar18+ ions (TEL = 290 keV x microm(-1)), are described. The interpretation of the kinetics takes into account the superoxide absorbance and that of hydrogen peroxide, which is present at the millisecond time scale.

Abstract
This study was designed to evaluate the antioxidant effect of aminoguanidine toward human low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) initiated by oxygenated free radicals (*OH/O(2)*-) generated by gamma radiolysis. Initial radiolytic yields related to the markers of lipid peroxidation [i.e. decrease in endogenous alpha-tocopherol and beta-carotene, formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) and conjugated dienes] were determined in 3 g liter(-1) LDLs (expressed as total LDL concentration) in the absence and presence of 10 different concentrations of aminoguanidine (from 0.04 to 5 mmol liter(-1)). Fluorescence and relative electrophoretic mobility of oxidized LDLs were also studied as markers that indirectly reflect the attack of the protein moiety of LDLs (namely apolipoprotein B). Our data clearly showed the inhibitory effect of aminoguanidine on lipid peroxidation induced in LDLs by *OH/O(2)*- in a concentration-dependent manner. This effect probably resulted from a scavenging activity of aminoguanidine toward *OH. In contrast, aminoguanidine did not appear to react significantly with O(2)*-, which resulted in a poor residual lipid peroxidation. Our data led us to determine an optimum [aminoguanidine]/[LDL] ratio ranging from 250 to 500 to obtain the best in vitro protection of LDLs under our experimental conditions. It is also of great interest that aminoguanidine was able to protect endogenous alpha-tocopherol and beta-carotene of LDLs upon *OH/O(2)*(-)-induced oxidation.

Abstract
Peroxidation of unconjugated polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linolenic acid proceeds through a free radical chain mechanism and is accompanied by the formation of conjugated dienes such as hydroperoxides. In an investigation of radiation-induced oxidation of aqueous linolenate, we have measured two indexes of peroxidation: (1) conjugated dienes by means of absorption spectroscopy and (2) hydroperoxides by high-pressure liquid chromatography using detection of chemiluminescence. The experimental results indicate a strong effect of the concentration of linolenate on the yields of oxidized products. In addition, this work shows the quantitative production of two kinds of hydroperoxides. The ratio of these hydroperoxides is independent of the radiation dose but is dependent on the linolenate concentration. One hydroperoxide is formed predominantly below the critical micellar concentration (3 mM under our conditions), while the second is observed predominantly when micelles are formed in the aqueous medium. The influence of the composition of the medium on the nature of both hydroperoxides is discussed. [bj163]

Abstract
The aim of our study was to determine the oxysterol formation in low density lipoproteins (LDLs) oxidized by defined oxygen free radicals (*OH/O2*-). This was compared to the oxysterol produced upon the classical copper oxidation procedure. The results showed a markedly lower formation of oxysterols induced by *OH/O2*- free radicals than by copper and thus suggested a poor ability of these radicals to initiate cholesterol oxidation in LDLs. Moreover, the molecular species of cholesteryl ester hydroperoxides produced by LDL copper oxidation seemed more labile than those formed upon *OH/O2*(-)-induced oxidation, probably due to their degradation by reaction with copper ions.

Abstract
This study was designed to evaluate the antioxidant effect of probucol on peroxidation of low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) initiated by oxygenated free radicals (O2*-) and ethanol-derived peroxyl radicals (RO2*) generated by gamma radiolysis. Initial radiolytic yields related to the markers of lipid peroxidation [i.e. decrease in endogenous alpha-tocopherol, formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) and conjugated dienes] were determined as a function of LDL concentration (1.5 and 3 g l(-1), expressed as total LDL) and in the absence or the presence of probucol at different concentrations (2.3 x 10(-6), 3.5 x 10(-6), 9 x 10(-6) and 20.5 x 10(-6) mol l(-1)). Our results showed that probucol was able to decrease not only the yields of TBARS and conjugated dienes but also the levels of these peroxidation products obtained at high doses (2500 Gy) compared to LDLs without probucol. Under our conditions, probucol displayed an optimal antioxidant effect for an initial concentration in LDLs equivalent to 15 probucol molecules per LDL particle, which corresponded to a pharmacologically relevant concentration of probucol. Moreover, our data showed that probucol was unable to react with RO2* and thus did not protect LDL vitamin E from free radical attack. In addition, the scavenging capacity of probucol on O2*- appeared to be very poor, and probucol more likely reacted with LDL intermediate radical products. Finally, a very significant steady-state level of probucol remained in LDLs at high doses (up to 2500 Gy), equivalent to at least 40% of the initial concentration of probucol. This addressed the question of a mechanism for regeneration of probucol in LDLs. Our results as a whole suggested that the antioxidant effect of probucol in vivo could not be explained by its scavenging capacity with regard to RO2*/O2*- free radicals.

Abstract
Peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid in aqueous micellar solution proceeds through a free-radical chain mechanism and is accompanied by the formation of conjugated dienes, some in the form of hydroperoxides. In the course of an investigation of radiation-induced oxidation of aqueous sodium linoleate, we have measured three indexes of peroxidation-conjugated dienes, hydroperoxides and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances-by means of absorption spectroscopy, high-pressure liquid chromatography and spectrofluorimetry, respectively. There are linear correlations between the amounts of conjugated dienes, hydroperoxides and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances. The radiolytic yields have been determined from the radiation dose dependence of the three markers of peroxidation as a function of sodium linoleate concentration. The results obtained indicate a strong effect of the concentrations of oxygen and linoleate on the yields of the products. The yields at different lipid concentrations display a large increase in chain propagation length; this is discussed in terms of the effect of micellar size.

Abstract
The formation and decay of HO2/O2- radical from the radiolysis of water by heavy 36S16+ ions (2.7 GeV) have been observed by time-resolved absorption spectroscopy at 260 nm. The experiment was performed at the Grand Accélérateur National d'Ions Lourds (Caen, France). In deaerated water, for a linear energy transfer (LET) of 250 eV/nm, the yield of HO2/O2- is (6 +/- 2) x 10(-9) mol J-1. In aerated solution, an additional formation of O2- is observed due to the reaction of hydrogen atom and e(aq)- with oxygen. The experimental G values are compared to those obtained with light ions for the same LET. The importance of the initial velocity is discussed briefly.

Abstract
Accumulation of monocyte-derived foam cells in the arterial intima is a major event in the development of atherogenesis. We have examined whether native and oxidized lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) can induce adhesion of monocytic cells to aortic endothelium. The extensive oxidation of paired samples of Lp(a) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) was achieved by O2.-/OH. free radicals produced by gamma radiolysis of water, leading to similar values for the formation of peroxidation markers (conjugated dienes, TBARS, 8-epi-PGF2alpha) for both Lp(a) and LDL. Rabbit aortic segments were incubated for 5 h in the presence of equimolar concentrations of native and oxidized preparations of Lp(a) and LDL (125 micromol cholesterol/l, corresponding to 40 and 30 mg protein/l for Lp(a) and LDL, respectively). The aortic segments were incubated with rhodamin-isothiocyanate labeled U937 monocytic cells for 30 min and cell adhesion was quantified by fluorescent microscopy. Native Lp(a), and to a larger extent oxidized Lp(a), significantly increased U937 cell adhesion by 2.3 and 2.7 fold compared to controls (P < 0.005 and P < 0.001, respectively). Monocytic cell adhesion was also increased by native LDL (1.6 fold, P < 0.005), and to a greater extent by oxidized LDL (2.3 fold, P < 0.001). Thus native Lp(a) enhances the adhesive properties of the arterial endothelium which may account for its proatherogenic action. Furthermore, our results show that oxidized Lp(a), as well as oxidized LDL, are potent stimuli of monocyte adhesion to endothelial cells.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to specify the mechanisms involved in the radical oxidation of human high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and to compare these mechanisms with those described previously for the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) under the same experimental conditions (Bonnefont-Rousselot et al., Radiat, Res. 134, 271-282, 1993). The oxidation of HDL, initiated by .OH or .OH/O(.-)2 free radicals from gamma radiolysis of water, was evaluated as a function of increasing radiation dose by analyzing quantitatively the decrease of endogenous alpha-tocopherol and the formation of oxidation products (thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances and conjugated dienes). All qualitative conclusions were supported by quantitative data (radiation yields and concentrations of the oxidation markers at high radiation doses) and by the mechanisms of the kinetics, .OH free radicals in the absence of oxygen were less efficient in initiating HDL oxidation than in the presence of oxygen (action of .OH/O(.-)2 free radicals), which was in agreement with the enhancement of the action of .OH free radicals by oxygen. The remaining significant level of vitamin E in HDLs at high radiation doses in the absence of oxygen could be explained by a regeneration of vitamin E by an oxidation product that was able to reduce the alpha-tocopheroxyl radical. The yields related to the decrease in the vitamin E content of HDLs after exposure to radiation with .OH or .OH/O(.-)2 free radicals were slightly higher than those obtained previously in LDLs under similar experimental conditions. Moreover, in the presence of oxygen, .OH free radicals led to a lower formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances in HDLs than in LDLs. Such discrepancies in the behavior of these two lipoprotein fractions could be related to the differences in the chemical composition of HDLs and LDLs.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to compare the behaviour of HDL oxidised by .OH or .OH/O2.- free radicals produced by gamma radiolysis in the absence or in the presence of LDL at the same concentration of 3 g x l(-1), in order to specify the possibility of reciprocal protection of HDL and LDL towards lipid peroxidation. This oxidation was quantitatively evaluated by the decrease of endogenous alpha-tocopherol and the formation of oxidation products (thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances and conjugated dienes) and by the determination of initial radiation yields. Our results demonstrated that HDL could be protected by LDL against in vitro radical oxidation only in the presence of oxygen (action of .OH/O2.- free radicals). This observation addresses new questions about the interaction between HDL and LDL, especially the possibility of a reciprocal protection.

Abstract
Low density lipoprotein (LDL) has been submitted to oxidative modification induced by gamma radiolysis of water under conditions generating either hydroxyl radical (OH.) alone, or a mixture of superoxide anion and OH.. Treatment of LDL with hydroxyl radical alone did not lead to significant lipid peroxidation as assessed by thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and hydroperoxide measurement and induced only very small change in the electrophoretic mobility of the particle. In contrast, superoxide and hydroxyl radical mixture induced a dose-dependent increase in lipid peroxidation, with a marked elevation of the negative net charge of the LDL. However, in both cases, a similar reduction of the uptake and degradation of modified LDL by the apo B/E receptor pathway of human fibroblasts was observed. This suggests that factors other than lipid peroxidation could play a role in LDL modification and influence their cellular metabolism.

Abstract
This paper describes an oxidative process of human high-density lipoproteins (HDL) based upon the action of oxygenated free radicals produced by water radiolysis (OH. and OH./O2.- free radicals at pH 7), monitored by both biochemical and physical markers. Classical biochemical markers (vitamin E, thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS), conjugated dienes and differential fluorescence) were studied as a function of the radiation dose (from 0 to 800 Gy; dose rate = 2.7 x 10(-2) Gy.s(-1)). The fluorescence polarization anisotropy (r) was measured with 1,6-diphenylhexatriene (DPH). Vitamin E decrease and formation of lipid peroxidation products (thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances and conjugated dienes) were concomitant in the case of OH. free radicals alone, whereas these products appeared after a small threshold dose when OH. and O2.- free radicals were simultaneously produced in solution. At high radiation doses, TBARS concentrations have reached plateau values (approx. 2 or 7 nmol/mg lipid with OH. or OH./O2.- free radicals, respectively) which were much lower than those obtained after copper oxidation (approx. 15 or 29 nmol/mg lipid after 12 and 24 h incubation, respectively). The free radical-induced oxidative process has led to a rigidification of the HDL and was associated with low values of cholesterol effluxing capacities when these oxidized HDL were incubated with cholesterol-loaded human fibroblasts. Similar results were obtained with copper-oxidized HDL, under our experimental conditions. Consequently, these two kinds of oxidative modification of HDL resulted both in a loss of their capacity to remove cellular cholesterol, which could be explained by the fact that this ability was under the dependence of a HDL optimum fluidity.

Abstract
A pulse radiolysis study of vitamin K1 reduction was carried out in argon-saturated ethanolic solutions. The alpha-hydroxyethyl radicals CH3C.HOH (R.) and the solvated electrons (e-solv) reduce vitamin K1, leading to the semiquinone transient K1H.. This species, characterized by its absorption spectrum, decays by disproportionation and leads to the formation of the hydroquinone K1H2. The rate constants of the monoelectronic exchanges involved in this reduction have been determined.
