Abstract
Production of considerable amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) eventually leads to oxidative stress. A key role of oxidative stress is evident in the pathologic mechanisms of endothelial dysfunction and associated cardiovascular diseases. Vascular enzymes such as NADPH oxidases, xanthine oxidase, and uncoupled endothelial nitric oxide synthase are involved in the production of ROS. The question remains whether pharmacologic approaches can effectively combat the excessive ROS production in the vasculature. Interestingly, existing registered cardiovascular drugs can directly or indirectly act as antioxidants, thereby preventing the damaging effects of ROS. Moreover, new compounds targeting NADPH oxidases have been developed. Finally, food-derived compounds appear to be effective inhibitors of oxidative stress and preserve vascular function.

Abstract
Natural products, their derivatives, and their analogues are among the most important sources for new drug candidates and tools for chemical biology and medicinal chemistry research. Therefore, there is a need for the development of efficient synthesis methods which give access to natural product derived and inspired compound collections. To meet this challenge, the requirements of multistep stereoselective syntheses, and the logic and methodology of natural product total synthesis need to be translated and adapted to the methods and formats for the synthesis of compound collections. Recent developments in the synthesis of natural product inspired compound collections having carbocyclic and heterocyclic scaffolds highlight the fact that this goal can be successfully attained. The progress made has paved the way for the integration of natural product inspired compound collections into medicinal chemistry and chemical biology research.

Abstract
Several antioxidants have been shown to reduce lysosomal phospholipidosis, which is a potential mechanism of amiodarone toxicity, and prevent amiodarone toxicity by antioxidant and/or non-antioxidant mechanisms. The aim of this study was to test whether the co-administration of two structurally different antioxidants vitamin E and silymarin with amiodarone can reduce amiodarone-induced lysosomal phospholipidosis, and if yes, by reducing the tissue concentration of amiodarone and desethylamiodarone or by their antioxidant action. To this end, male Fischer 344 rats were treated by gavage once a day for 3 weeks and randomly assigned to the following four experimental groups: 1, control; 2, amiodarone (150 mg/(kg per day)); 3, amiodarone (150 mg/(kg per day)) plus vitamin E (100 mg/(kg per day)); 4, amiodarone (150 mg/(kg per day)) plus silymarin (60 mg/(kg per day)) treated groups. Total plasma phospholipid (PL), liver-conjugated diene, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARSs), amiodarone and desethylamiodarone concentrations were determined and the extent of lysosomal phospholipidosis in the liver was estimated by a semi-quantitative electron microscopic method. Amiodarone treatment increased significantly the liver-conjugated diene (P<0.001), TBARS (P=0.012), plasma total PL (P<0.001) concentrations compared with control. Antioxidants combined with amiodarone significantly decreased the liver-conjugated diene (P<0.001 for both), TBARS (P=0.016 for vitamin E, P=0.053 borderline for silymarin) and plasma total PL (P=0.058 borderline for vitamin E, P<0.01 for silymarin) concentrations compared with amiodarone treatment alone. Silymarin significantly (P=0.021) reduced liver amiodarone, but only tended to decrease desethylamiodarone concentration; however, vitamin E failed to do so. Amiodarone treatment increased lysosomal phospholipidosis (P<0.001) estimated by semi-quantitative electron microscopic method and both antioxidants combined with amiodarone reduced significantly (P<0.001 for both) the amiodarone-induced lysosomal phospholipidosis. In conclusion, silymarin presumably reduced lysosomal phospholipidosis by both antioxidant action and its liver amiodarone concentration decreasing effect, while vitamin E exerted similar effect by antioxidant action alone. Thus, both antioxidant action and inhibition of tissue uptake of amiodarone might have an important role in the preventative effect of antioxidants against amiodarone toxicity.

Abstract
The in vitro antioxidant and photo-oxidant activity of dipyridamole was studied by its effect on superoxide- and singlet oxygen-mediated photohemolysis and viability of neutrophils. Dipyridamole was found to be phototoxic when examined by the photohemolysis on human erythrocytes and on linoleic acid as lipid peroxidation model at concentrations above 3.0 x 10(-5) M. On the contrary, when lower concentrations (1.0 x 10(-5) to 1.0 x 10(-6) M) were used, dipyridamole showed a protector action against singlet oxygen-mediated photohemolysis by other phototoxic compounds like triamterene. This antioxidant property is proposed to result from quenching of triamterene mediated by fluorescence energy transfer. Auto-oxidation and fluorescence-energy transfer is clearly an important mechanism for protection for this drug.

Abstract
Lipoprotein oxidation is crucial in atherogenic processes. Amiodarone is a lipophilic antiarrhythmic/antianginal drug which is able to influence the physicochemical status of biological lipid components. Since oxidation of lipids is affected by their physicochemical state and amiodarone binds to lipoproteins, we hypothesized that the drug may exert an antioxidant activity on human lipoprotein oxidation. Dose-dependent effects of therapeutically achievable amiodarone concentrations (1.5, 3, 5, 7 and 10 microM) were studied on copper-catalysed oxidation of the non-HDL fraction in vitro. Amiodarone inhibited oxidation as judged by generation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH) and fluorescent products of lipoperoxidation (FPL) as well as from the kinetics of conjugated diene formation. This antioxidant activity was significant at 1.5 microM with total inhibition at 10 microM and an IC(50) of 4 microM. The primary in vivo metabolite of amiodarone, namely desethylamiodarone, also exhibited specific antioxidant properties although it was less effective than amiodarone with an IC(50) of 7 microM. In further in vivo experiments, susceptibility to copper-mediated oxidation of the non-HDL fraction was investigated before and 4 weeks after oral amiodarone administration to humans. Following treatment, significant inhibition of TBARS, LOOH and FPL generation was observed in comparison with baseline levels and a placebo-treated control group, highlighting an effective antioxidant capacity of amiodarone in vivo. Amiodarone did not change lipoprotein vitamin E and phospholipid content in vivo and did not show scavenging effects on oxidizing species involved in lipoprotein oxidation, such as peroxyl radicals, nor metal-binding/inactivating properties, suggesting that physicochemical modifications of lipoprotein lipids induced by the lipophilic drug may be involved in its antioxidant activity. In conclusion, amiodarone, and its primary metabolite desethylamiodarone, show previously unrecognized antioxidant activity on human lipoprotein oxidation. This effect is also evident in vivo and at therapeutically achievable drug concentrations. Thus, amiodarone may act as an antioxidant/antiatherosclerotic agent in humans, although this issue warrants further clinical study.

Abstract
We found that ticlopidine, at therapeutically relevant concentrations (2.5-10 microM), but not aspirin nor salicylate, significantly counteracted copper-driven human LDL oxidation. Ticlopidine, at 5 and 10 microM, was also antioxidant on peroxyl radical-induced LDL oxidation; yet it was ineffectual on thiol and ascorbate oxidation mediated by peroxyl radicals themselves, suggesting that drug antioxidant capacity is somehow related to the lipoprotein nature of the oxidizable substrate, but not to radical scavenging. The drug could not indeed react with the stable free radical 1,1-diphenyl-2-pycrylhydrazyl, nor had apparent metal complexing-inactivating activity. Thus, ticlopidine has antioxidant effects on LDL oxidation, which, together with its anti-platelet activity, could confer peculiar antiatherogenic properties to the drug in vivo.

Abstract
Amiodarone (AM) is an efficacious antidysrhythmic agent that is limited clinically by numerous adverse effects. Of greatest concern is AM-induced pulmonary toxicity (AIPT) due to the potential for mortality. Mitochondrial alterations and free radicals have been implicated in the etiology of AM-induced toxicities, including AIPT. Isolated hamster lung and liver mitochondria were assessed for AM-induced effects on respiration, membrane potential, and lipid peroxidation. AM (50-400 microM) stimulated state 4 (resting) respiration at complexes I and II of tightly coupled lung mitochondria, with higher concentrations (200 and 400 microM) resulting in a subsequent inhibition. This biphasic effect of AM (200 microM) was also observed with isolated liver mitochondria. Only inhibition of respiration was observed with AM (50-400 microM) in less tightly coupled lung mitochondria. Based on safranine fluorescence, 200 microM AM decreased lung mitochondrial membrane potential (p < 0.05), while a concentration-dependent (50-200 microM) decrease of membrane potential was observed with liver mitochondria exposed to AM (p < 0.05). Formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) was not altered by AM (50-400 microM) in incubations lasting up to 1 h. These results indicate that lipid peroxidation, as indicated by levels of TBARS, does not play a role in AM-induced alterations in mitochondrial respiration and membrane potential.

Abstract
We report the synthesis of some mercaptotriazole derivatives in an effort to discover underlying structural requirements for antiviral activity. A preliminary antiviral study was performed and the contribution of the compounds to free radical processes was investigated. Because lipophilicity influences both biological activity and antioxidant potential we calculated lipophilicity and attempted to correlate this with antioxidant activity. Treatment of the N-(aryl)piperazineacetohydrazides (compounds 1) with 2,4-dichlorophenylisothiocyanate gave the N-(aryl)piperazinethiosemicarbazides (compounds 2) in good yield. Cyclization of these compounds after treatment with NaOH solution provided the corresponding 5-(4-aryl-1-piperazinylmethyl)-4-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole- 3-thiols (compounds 3) in good yield. Reaction of compounds 3 with 2,4-dichloro- or 4-fluorobenzyl chloride in acetone in the presence of potassium carbonate gave the target compounds (compounds 4) in about 70% yield. The antioxidant effect of the compounds on non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation of rat hepatic microsomal membranes was studied. Most of the examined compounds were active at concentration of 0.1 mM and most were found to prevent dimethylsulphoxide oxidation moderately (20-50%) at a concentration tenfold less than that of dimethylsulphoxide. The interaction of the synthesized compounds with 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl stable free radical was also studied. Correlation was found between the two expressions of calculated lipophilicity, antioxidant activity and the lipophilicity of the synthesized compounds, and a correlation was derived between antioxidant activity and delta logP, which expresses the compounds' hydrogen-bonding capacity.

Abstract
Many pathologic states are known to involve the generation of reactive oxygen species, (ROS). It is not known at present to what extent these phenomena are due to ROS formation, or if their formation is a result of the disease. Many therapeutic drugs either scavenge ROS or inhibit their formation. The purpose of this review is to match the drugs used for certain diseases with their anti-ROS actions. This attempted correlation is made to try to give an answer to the title question.

Abstract
The synthesis and the anticonvulsant activity of a number of GABA and valproic acid derivatives are reported. The lipophilicity of these compounds and their inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation were also investigated, in an effort to correlate the anticonvulsant activity with lipophilicity and inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation. The synthesized compounds exhibited anticonvulsant effects which were stronger for the more lipophilic derivatives. One of the active anticonvulsants showed appreciable antioxidant properties. Finally, a good correlation was found between the experimentally derived (RM) and calculated (sigma f and log PSK) lipophilicity for this series of compounds.

Abstract
Convulsions and pulmonary damage result when animals are exposed to hyperbaric oxygen at pressures above about 300 kPa. Several hydroxyl radical scavengers (namely dimethylsulphoxide, dimethylthiourea and mannitol), the iron chelator desferrioxamine and the lipid antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene were tested for possible protection against such hyperbaric oxygen toxicity. Dimethylthiourea and dimethylsulphoxide prolonged the latency to the first convulsion, but, surprisingly, dimethylthiourea very significantly increased pulmonary damage at both pressures used (515 and 585 kPa). Desferrioxamine also slightly increased lung damage at 585 kPa. Other antioxidants did not alter neurotoxicity or pulmonary toxicity induced by hyperbaric oxygen at 515 or 585 kPa. The antioxidants were also tested for their ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation (TBARS formation) in vitro. Desferrioxamine (5 and 50 microM), and butylated hydroxytoluene (0.1 mM and 1 mM) greatly inhibited TBARS formation in brain and lung homogenates incubated at 37 degrees. None of the hydroxyl radical scavengers affected TBARS levels in homogenates. There was no correlation between in vitro inhibition of lipid peroxidation and in vivo protection against oxygen toxicity.

Four hydroxyethyl rutosides, 7,3',4'-trihydroxyethyl quercetin, quercetin and a commercial standardized mixture of hydroxyethyl rutosides were investigated on non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation, for hydroxyl radical scavenging activity and interaction with 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl stable free radical (DPPH). It was found that the tested compounds exhibited a considerable inhibition of microsomal lipid peroxidation. They were less active than the reference compound quercetin, and this was attributed to their structural characteristics. They were also found to be potent hydroxyl radical scavengers and to interact with DPPH. As hydroxyl radical scavengers, they were more potent than the scavengers mannitol and dimethyl sulphoxide. These properties could be considered as a useful and exploitable combination.
