Abstract
We investigated the influence of PUFA in phospholipids (PL) on the functional characteristics of cultured cardiomyocytes (CM) in basal conditions and during free radical (FR) stress provoked either by the xanthine/xanthine oxidase (X/XO) system or by a (9Z, 11E, 13 (S), 15Z)-13-hydroperoxyoctadecatrienoic acid (13-HpOTrE). CM were grown in media containing either n - 3 (eicosapentaenoic acid, EPA, and docosahexaenoic acid, DHA) or n - 6 (arachidonic acid, AA). These two groups of CM displayed different PUFA n - 6/n - 3 ratio in PL. However, their basal electromechanical characteristics were similar. The X/XO system drastically altered CM functions, without difference between the two groups of CM. 13-HpOTrE caused a moderate and reversible depression in action potential parameters, which was dependent upon the PL PUFA, since the n - 3-enriched CM exhibited an earlier functional depression but faster recovery. Thus, the peroxidative damage of CM depended on a cross relationship between FR species and the PL PUFA composition.

Abstract
Ultraviolet B light (UVB) causes cutaneous inflammation and cell death, but the agents responsible are not defined. These studies examined the role of the platelet-activating factor (PAF) signaling system in UVB-mediated effects. Expression of the PAF receptor in the PAF receptor-negative epidermoid cell line KB augmented apoptosis in response to UVB irradiation. Overexpression of the PAF receptor in primary human keratinocytes also enhanced UVB-mediated apoptosis in vitro, and it enhanced apoptosis in an in vivo model of human keratinocytes grafted onto severe combined immune-deficient (SCID) mice. To define the mechanism by which UVB activates the PAF receptor, we used mass spectrometry to demonstrate significant amounts of the C4 PAF analogs 1-alkyl-2-(butanoyl and butenoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, as well as native PAF in an epidermal cell line after UVB irradiation. Supplementing the cells with the precursor phospholipid 1-hexadecyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (HAPC) increased the amount of C4 PAF analogs recovered after UVB exposure. We irradiated HAPC directly and found, even in the absence of a photosensitizer, fragmentation to C4-PAF receptor ligands. We conclude UVB photo-oxidizes cellular phospholipids, creating PAF analogs that stimulate the PAF receptor to induce further PAF synthesis and apoptosis. PAF signaling may participate in the cutaneous inflammation that occurs during photo-aggravated dermatoses.

Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a lipid enveloped virus. The lipid envelope differs significantly from the lipid membrane of normal human cells: it contains high amounts of cholesterol, that is of importance for the virus-cell interaction (for entry and exit of the virus) at so-called lipid rafts. Cholesterol, as a R-C=C-R compound possesses an oxidazable carbenic bond. The present work suggests the inactivation of HIV by oxidation of viral cholesterol and/or unsaturated fatty acids. For oxidation, the relatively mild oxidant singlet oxygen (1O(2)) might be used. 1O(2) is generated by redoxcyclers (e.g., of the quinone type, such as vitamin K) or by chloramines (e.g., taurine-chloramine). At the 1O(2) concentrations necessary to inactivate lipid enveloped virus in human blood the oxidation-sensible critical hemostasis parameters such as thrombocytes and fibrinogen are only partly inactivated. Therefore, it is proposed to consider generators of 1O(2) as a new form of AIDS therapy.

Abstract
Photo-peroxidation of methyl and phenyl linoleate in methanol solutions at 25 degrees C, in the presence of methylene blue or 5,10,15,20-tetra(4-pyridyl)-porphyrin (TPP) as sensitisers of singlet oxygen, was found to proceed at more than 30 times the rate of the same polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) ester species undergoing thermal-peroxidation in the bulk phase at 50 degrees C. The addition of anti-oxidants such as butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) quench the thermal-oxidation effectively but appear to only partially inhibit the photosensitized peroxidation reactions. The kinetics of the overall peroxidation reactions were followed by ultraviolet spectroscopy, measurements of hydroperoxide concentration and by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The photo-peroxidation reaction proceeds more rapidly in chloroform solution as the lifetime of singlet oxygen is shown to be over ten times longer in chloroform than methanol. The initial fast reaction kinetics of the photo-peroxidation reactions were evaluated using a pulsed laser technique to show that singlet oxygen reacts competitively with both the anti-oxidants and the polyunsaturated fatty acid ester. Second order kinetic rate constants (in the range 10(5)-10(7) dm(3) mol(-1) s(-1)) were evaluated for the reactivity of singlet oxygen with a range of anti-oxidants and a singlet oxygen quencher, and the results used to explain the effect of anti-oxidants at different concentrations on the rate of the linoleate photo-peroxidation reaction.

Abstract
Activated phagocytes (especially polymorphonuclear granulocytes (PMNs)) by respiratory oxidative/photonic burst (activation of NADPH-oxidase and myeloper-oxidase) generate large amounts of oxidants of the hypochlorite-/chloramine-type, which are physiologic sources for singlet oxygen (1O2), a nonradical-excited (photon (h nu) emitting) oxygen species [Weiss SJ, NEJM 1989;320:365-376]. In vitro experiments show that 1O2 (1) inhibits coagulation by inactivation of thrombocytes, fibrinogen, factor V, factor VIII, and factor X and (2) activates fibrinolysis by inactivation of the main fibrinolysis inhibitors plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1 and alpha-2-antiplasmin, and by activation of single-chain urokinase by plasmin and oxidized fibrin. Additionally, this work suggests that 1O2/h nu acts antithrombotically, inducing selective thrombolysis in vivo (i.e., thrombolysis induced by 0.1 to 0.5 mmol/l chloramine within 30 to 60 minutes without changes of the plasmatic hemostasis system). 1O2 might activate flowing to (on the endothelium) rolling PMN, increasing their chance to get in contact with fibrin/platelet aggregates deposited on the endothelial layer. Via 1O2 generation, the thrombus-activated phagocytes might call for (acute, physiologic) inflammation/fibrinolysis amplification, resulting in the "moving front" of PMN, which infiltrates and destroys the thrombus. 1O2 seems to (partially) participate in the reactivity of nitric oxide, another prooxidative agent. The inhibition of physiologic amounts of 1O2 by blood cholesterol might be involved in the pathogenesis of atherothrombosis. Consequently, it is suggested that activated PMNs modulate hemostasis, shifting it into an antithrombotic state; this cellular part of fibrinolysis seems to be of greater physiologic importance than the plasmatic one. Impaired PMN function (e.g., as occurring in patients with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies or under cytostatic treatments) often results in serious thrombotic complications. Light is the only signal whose origin can be immediately recognized by a fast moving cell in the (dark) blood stream. The cell signal action of 1O2/h nu (e.g., released by chloramines such as taurine-chloramine or vancomycin, by fiberoptic, by photodynamic therapy, or by so-called redox-cycling drugs such as quinones or tetracyclines) might be a new and physiologic principle for pharmacologic intervention in atherothrombosis.

Abstract
The relationship between structure and reactivity is reported for a collection of carotenoids in solution reacted with oxidants generated by a modified Fenton process or with peroxyl radicals generated via the azo-initiators AMVN and AIBN. The initial rates of oxidation were in the order: lycopene > beta,beta-carotene, zeaxanthin > echinenone, isozeaxanthin > astaxanthin, canthaxanthin. The oxidative degradation caused rapid bleaching, due to disruption and breakdown of the polyene chromophore. A number of reaction mechanisms are likely to be involved. Isozeaxanthin, canthaxanthin and astaxanthin, in which the C-4 and C-4' positions are occupied by functional groups, react more slowly than beta,beta-carotene and zeaxanthin, in which this position is free. Products such as the 4-methoxy (or 4-ethoxy) and 4,4'-dimethoxy (or 4,4'-diethoxy) derivatives were isolated from reactions of beta,beta-carotene with peroxyl radicals in the presence of methanol or ethanol. Electron density calculations suggest that the different reactivities cannot be attributed solely to differences in electron distribution along the polyene chain of the different chromophores, which would alter the susceptibility to free-radical addition to the conjugated double-bond system. Other reactions must therefore be considered, including hydrogen abstraction from positions allylic to the polyene chain (C-4 of beta,beta-carotene and its derivatives, and of lycopene). Lycopene, lutein and zeaxanthin all reacted rapidly with oxidising agents, so these dietary carotenoids must also be considered as potential antioxidants.

Abstract
In the aim to study the effect of an in vitro enrichment of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) with alpha-tocopherol in alcoholic solution on a copper-induced peroxidation, we monitored several markers of lipid peroxidation (alpha-tocopherol consumption, formation of conjugated dienes and of fatty acid hydroperoxides, production of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances) and the integrity of apolipoprotein A-I. High-density lipoproteins (1.063 < d < 1.21) with a mean of 0.58 alpha-tocopherol molecules per HDL particle were enriched with alpha-tocopherol in alcoholic solution to obtain an average of 3.7 and 21 alpha-tocopherol molecules per HDL particle. HDL oxidation with 5 microM CuSO4 at 37 degrees C resulted in the total disappearance of endogenous alpha-tocopherol after 2 h, but after 24 h about 19% of alpha-tocopherol remained in the most enriched HDL. In agreement with the tocopherol-mediated peroxidation, the formation of conjugated dienes and of fatty acid hydroperoxides was very fast and increased with alpha-tocopherol concentration, whereas TBARS production decreased. These results showed that alpha-tocopherol enrichment stabilized the production of hydroperoxides in HDL and decreased the formation of secondary oxidation products. These latter products are known for deleterious effects towards apolipoproteins. This could explain why we observed that the apolipoprotein A-I of the most enriched HDL was only slightly altered after incubation with CuSO4.

Abstract
Unsaturated fatty acids constitutive of cardiac membranal lipid matrix are one of the primary targets for reactive oxygen species generated during ischemia-reperfusion cycle. Lipid peroxidation is a cascade of intricate reactions involving the successive formations of fatty acids hydroperoxides and aldehydic compounds such as alkenals derived from the oxidative fragmentation of these hydroperoxides. The potential deleterious effects of different classes of lipid peroxidation products on cardiac cells were compared using three in vitro approaches: (i) cardiomyocyte integrity, (ii) electromechanical activity of papillary muscle, and (iii) atrial contractility. The following products of lipid peroxidation were tested: (i) photoperoxidized arachidonic acid pooling hydroperoxidized derivatives and aldehydic compounds, (ii) fatty acids hydroperoxides, and (iii) 4-hydroxynonenal, a characteristic alkenal derived from the oxidative fragmentation of hydroperoxidized n-6 fatty acids. Only fatty acids hydroperoxides induced drastic loss of cellular integrity and severe disturbances in electromechanical activity of cardiomyocytes. 4-hydroxynonenal induced only a slight leak of lactate dehydrogenase at high concentrations and did not modify the electromechanical behavior of cardiac preparations. Under our conditions, monohydroperoxidized fatty acids but not 4-hydroxynonenal induced acute cardiac cell damages. In conclusion, lipid hydroperoxides can be considered both as markers of oxidative injury and relay sources of oxidative stress.

Abstract
The primary products formed from the autoxidation of lipids can be understood based upon a mechanism that involves five different reaction types. These reactions are: reaction of a carbon radical and molecular oxygen, atom transfer of a hydrogen from substrate to the chain carrying peroxyl, fragmentation of the chain carrying peroxyl to give oxygen and a carbon radical, rearrangement of the peroxyl, and cyclization of the peroxyl. The mechanism of these primary reaction steps has been the focus of extensive research over the past fifty years, and the current level of understanding of these transformations is the subject of this review.

Abstract
A potential role for lipoxygenase (LO) products and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in mouse B-lymphocyte activation and differentiation was investigated. Previously published investigations with the nonspecific 5-LO (EC 1.13.11.34) and 12-LO (EC 1.13.11.31) inhibitors such as nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) and 6,7-dihydroxycoumarin (Esculetin), are misleading in that they suggest lymphocyte LO activity is required for activation and differentiation of these cells. In initial support of this concept, we report that NDGA and Esculetin completely inhibited B-lymphocyte activation mediated by either membrane immunoglobulin (mIg), or the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) receptor. NDGA and Esculetin completely inhibited cell enlargement and proliferation, exhibiting half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50S) of approximately 1 x 10(-6) M. In contrast, the highly specific 5-LO inhibitors BAY X 1005, MK-886 and Wy 50,295 did not inhibit cell enlargement or proliferation. Moreover, 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid (ETI) which inhibits 5- and 12-LO, and 5, 8, 11, 14-eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA) which inhibits all known LOs did not affect B-lymphocyte proliferation. Interestingly, NDGA and Esculetin are antioxidants, unlike BAY X 1005, MK-886, Wy 50,295, ETI and ETYA. Our hypothesis was that the antioxidant activities of NDGA and Esculetin were reponsible for inhibiting B-lymphocyte activation and proliferation and we speculated that ROS and not LO activity was required for both processes. Additional antioxidants such as butylated hydroxy toluene, o-phenanthroline, thiourea, and alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E), also inhibited B-lymphocyte proliferation induced by either the LPS or mIg receptors. These agents exhibited IC50S of 1 x 10(-8) M, 5 x 10(-10) M, 6 x 10(-3) M and 5 x 10(-5) M, respectively. When resting B-lymphocytes were treated with a source of ROS (1 x 10(-5) M H2O2), cells enlarged in a temperature-sensitive manner, which is similar to LPS-induced enlargement. Both NDGA and Esculetin completely inhibited H2O2-induced enlargement. These results further indicate that ROS are required for B-lymphocyte activation and proliferation. Similar results were obtained for B-lymphocyte differentiation. NDGA and Esculetin completely inhibited the development of plasma cells and displayed IC50S of 5 x 10(-6) M. Conversely, BAY X 1005, MK-886, Wy 50,295, ETI, and ETYA did not block the formation of plasma cells. Therefore, ROS are also crucial for differentiation into plasma cells. These experiments are the first to directly illustrate that intracellular ROS mediate B-lymphocyte activation, proliferation and differentiation and that LO products are not required for these processes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Oxidative stress induced by reactive oxygen species is one aspect of the deleterious mechanisms involved in myocardial post-ischemic reperfusion injury. The antioxidant properties of the new molecule S12340 (8-[3-(3,5-diterbutyl-4-hydroxyphenyl-thio)propyl]-1-oxa-2- oxo-3,8-diazaspiro[4.5]decane) were evaluated using three successive in vitro approaches mimicking the cardiac cell damages induced by reactive oxygen species released into the reperfused myocardium. (i) The effects of S12340 on lipid peroxidation were evaluated using an original cell-free model of non-enzymatic peroxidation of 1.32 mM arachidonic acid induced by reactive oxygen species generated photochemically. S12340 (13.2 microM) inhibited by 29% the rate of oxidative fragmentation of monohydroperoxidized arachidonic acid into aldehydic products. (ii) S12340 (10 microM) inhibited by 96% and 58% the oxidative necrosis of cultured rat cardiomyocytes induced by xanthine oxidase (20 mU/ml) and monohydroperoxidized arachidonic acid (30 microM), respectively. (iii) Superfusion of guinea-pig papillary muscle with monohydroperoxidized arachidonic acid (20 microM) resulted in marked alterations of their electrophysiological and mechanical activities. These modifications, maximal 15-17 min after the addition of lipid hydroperoxide, were completely abolished by S12340 (30 microM).
