Abstract
Humans are unique indiscriminate carotenoid accumulators, so the human body accumulates a wide range of dietary carotenoids of different types and to varying concentrations. Carotenoids were once recognized as physiological antioxidants because of their ability to quench singlet molecular oxygen (1O2). In the 1990s, large-scale intervention studies failed to demonstrate that supplementary β-carotene intake reduces the incidence of lung cancer, although its antioxidant activity was supposed to contribute to the prevention of oxidative stress-induced carcinogenesis. Nevertheless, the antioxidant activity of carotenoids has attracted renewed attention as the pathophysiological role of 1O2 has emerged, and as the ability of dietary carotenoids to induce antioxidant enzymes has been revealed. This review focuses on six major carotenoids from fruit and vegetables and revisits their physiological functions as biological antioxidants from the standpoint of health promotion and disease prevention. β-Carotene 9',10'-oxygenase-derived oxidative metabolites trigger increases in the activities of antioxidant enzymes. Lutein and zeaxanthin selectively accumulate in human macular cells to protect against light-induced macular impairment by acting as antioxidants. Lycopene accumulates exclusively and to high concentrations in the testis, where its antioxidant activity may help to eliminate oxidative damage. Dietary carotenoids appear to exert their antioxidant activity in photo-irradiated skin after their persistent deposition in the skin. An acceptable level of dietary carotenoids for disease prevention should be established because they can have deleterious effects as prooxidants if they accumulate to excess levels. Finally, it is expected that the reason why humans are indiscriminate carotenoid accumulators will be understood soon.

Abstract
While plant-derived oxidants can protect cells from oxidative damage, limited research has examined the role of dietary chlorophyll. Photoreduction of ubiquinone by chlorophyll metabolites and red light has been reported in vitro and in animal models. Herein we examined photo-oxidation and photoreduction reactions of catechols, dopamine and hydrocaffeic acid. Photo-oxidation of dopamine by methylene blue and the chlorophyll metabolites pheophorbide A, chlorin e6 and sodium copper chlorophyllin was studied by monitoring aminochrome, the cyclized product of the dopamine o-quinone with its amine. Singlet oxygen scavengers including sodium azide, ascorbate and glutathione decreased aminochrome formation by methylene blue and pheophorbide A. Addition of EDTA, a tertiary amine electron donor, to the reaction of dopamine, photosensitizer and red light decreased aminochrome formation. Photoreduction of the dopamine o-quinone produced by mushroom tyrosinase was achieved by both methylene blue and pheophorbide A only when an electron donor was included. Due to limited solubility, photo-oxidation and photoreduction reactions by pheophorbide A required 5-7.5% dimethylformamide for optimal reactivity. Catalytic photoreduction of 2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-p-benzoquinone by methylene blue or pheophorbide A and tertiary amine electron donors was observed. Among the chlorophyll metabolites, pheophorbide A was more effective than chlorin e6 or sodium copper chlorophyllin in photo-oxidation of dopamine and photoreduction reactions. Singlet oxygen inhibited lactate dehydrogenase A activity, and higher molecular weight protein cross-links were observed on SDS-PAGE. Hydrocaffeic acid competed with lactate dehydrogenase A for reaction with singlet oxygen produced by methylene blue; however, no protection by hydrocaffeic acid (HCA) was observed when pheophorbide A was used. Cysteine modification of lactate dehydrogenase A by the o-quinone of hydrocaffeic acid was detected using a redox cycling stain. Inclusion of an electron donor decreased protein labeling.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen (1O2) is the excited state of ground, triplet state, molecular oxygen (O2). Photosensitized 1O2 has been extensively studied as one of the reactive oxygen species (ROS), responsible for damage of cellular components (protein, DNA, lipids). On the other hand, its generation has been exploited in organic synthesis, as well as in photodynamic therapy for the treatment of various forms of cancer. The aim of this review is to highlight the versatility of 1O2, discussing the main bioorganic applications reported over the past decades, which rely on its production. After a brief introduction on the photosensitized production of 1O2, we will describe the main aspects involving the biologically relevant damage that can accompany an uncontrolled, aspecific generation of this ROS. We then discuss in more detail a series of biological applications featuring 1O2 generation, including protein and DNA labelling, cross-linking and biosensing. Finally, we will highlight the methodologies available to tailor 1O2 generation, in order to accomplish the proposed bioorganic transformations while avoiding, at the same time, collateral damage related to an untamed production of this reactive species.

Abstract
Biofilms cause problems in the food industry due to their persistence and incompetent hygiene processing technologies. Interest in photodynamic inactivation (PDI) for combating biofilms has increased in recent years. This technique can induce microbial cell death, reduce cell attachment, ruin biofilm biomolecules and eradicate structured biofilms without inducing microbial resistance. This review addresses microbial challenges posed by biofilms in food environments and highlights the advantages of PDI in preventing and eradicating microbial biofilm communities. Current findings of the antibiofilm efficiencies of this technique are summarized. Additionally, emphasis is given to its potential mechanisms and factors capable of influencing biofilm communities, as well as promising hurdle strategies.

Abstract
Cold atmospheric plasmas (CAPs) are promising medical tools and are currently applied in dermatology and epithelial cancers. While understanding of the biomedical effects is already substantial, knowledge on the contribution of individual ROS and RNS and the mode of activation of biochemical pathways is insufficient. Especially the formation and transport of short-lived reactive species in liquids remain elusive, a situation shared with other approaches involving redox processes such as photodynamic therapy. Here, the contribution of plasma-generated reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plasma liquid chemistry was determined by labeling these via admixing heavy oxygen 18O2 to the feed gas or by using heavy water H218O as a solvent for the bait molecule. The inclusion of heavy or light oxygen atoms by the labeled ROS into the different cysteine products was determined by mass spectrometry. While products like cysteine sulfonic acid incorporated nearly exclusively gas phase-derived oxygen species (atomic oxygen and/or singlet oxygen), a significant contribution of liquid phase-derived species (OH radicals) was observed for cysteine-S-sulfonate. The role, origin, and reaction mechanisms of short-lived species, namely hydroxyl radicals, singlet oxygen, and atomic oxygen, are discussed. Interactions of these species both with the target cysteine molecule as well as the interphase and the liquid bulk are taken into consideration to shed light onto several reaction pathways resulting in observed isotopic oxygen incorporation. These studies give valuable insight into underlying plasma–liquid interaction processes and are a first step to understand these interaction processes between the gas and liquid phase on a molecular level. Cold atmospheric plasmas (CAPs) are promising medical tools producing short-lived reactive species.![]()

Photoinduced disinfection in sunlit natural waters: Measurement of the second order inactivation rate constants between E. coli and photogenerated transient species. WATER RESEARCH 2018; 147:242-253.

Abstract
This work uncovers the implications of the estimation of exogenous inactivation rates for E. coli after the initial lag phase, and presents a strategy for the determination of the second-order inactivation rate constants (k2nd) of these bacteria with relevant transient species promoted by solar light in natural waters. For this purpose, specific precursors were considered (nitrate ion, rose bengal, anthraquinone-2-sulfonate) as well as the respective photo-generated transient species (i.e., hydroxyl radical (•OH), singlet oxygen (1O2) and triplet excited states). Under these conditions and by using suitable reference compounds (acesulfame K and 2,4,6-trimethylphenol in different series of experiments), the k2nd values were obtained after developing a proper competition kinetics methodology. The k2nd values were (2.5 ± 0.9) × 1011, (3.8 ± 1.6) × 107 and (1.8 ± 0.7) × 1010 M-1 s-1 for the inactivation of E. coli by •OH, 1O2 and the triplet state of anthraquinone-2-sulfonate (3AQ2S*), respectively. The measurement of a reaction rate constant that is higher than the diffusion-control limit for small molecules in aqueous solution implies that bacteria behave differently from molecules, e.g., because of the large size difference between bacteria and the transients. The obtained k2nd values were used for the modeling of the bacteria inactivation kinetics in outdoor systems (both water bodies and SODIS bottles), limited to the exponential decay phase that follows the initial lag time. Afterwards, the role of dissolved organic matter (DOM) as precursor of transient species for bacterial elimination was systematically studied. The interaction of different sunlight wavelength regions (UVB, UV-A, blue, green and yellow light) with Suwannee river (SW) and Nordic Lake organic matter (ND) was tested, and the photoinduced disinfection exerted by DOM isolates (SW DOM, Suwannee River Humic Acid, Suwannee River Fulvic Acid or Pony Lake Fulvic Acid) was compared. It was not possible to achieve a complete differentiation of the individual contributions of DOM triplet states (3DOM*) and 1O2 to bacterial inactivation. However, the application of competition kinetics to E. coli under solar irradiation in the presence of SW led to a k2nd value of (2.17 ± 0.40) × 1010 M-1 s-1, which is very near the value for inactivation by 3AQ2S* and suggests that the latter behaved very similar to SW-3DOM* and was a good 3DOM* proxy in the present case. The determination of the second-order inactivation rate constants of E. coli with •OH, 3DOM* and 1O2 represents a significant progress in the understanding of the external inactivation pathways of bacteria. It also allows predicting that, after the lag phase, 1O2 would contribute to photoinactivation to a far lesser extent than •OH and 3DOM*.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen (1 O2 ) is a prime cause of photo-damage of the photosynthetic apparatus. The chlorophyll molecules in the photosystem II reaction center and in the light-harvesting antenna complex are major sources of 1 O2 generation. It has been thought that the generation of 1 O2 mainly takes place in the appressed regions of the thylakoid membranes, namely, the grana core, where most of the active photosystem II complexes are localized. Apart from being a toxic molecule, new evidence suggests that 1 O2 significantly contributes to chloroplast-to-nucleus retrograde signalling that primes acclimation and cell death responses. Interestingly, recent studies reveal that chloroplasts operate two distinct 1 O2 -triggered retrograde signalling pathways in which β-carotene and a nuclear-encoded chloroplast protein EXECUTER1 play essential roles as signalling mediators. The coexistence of these mediators raises several questions: their crosstalk, source(s) of 1 O2 , downstream signalling components, and the perception and reaction mechanism of these mediators towards 1 O2 . In this review, we mainly discuss the molecular genetic basis of the mode of action of these two putative 1 O2 sensors and their corresponding retrograde signalling pathways. In addition, we also propose the possible existence of an alternative source of 1 O2 , which is spatially and functionally separated from the grana core.

Abstract
In photodynamic therapy (PDT), killing is entirely based on the ROS generation and among different types of ROS generated during PDT, singlet oxygen is considered as the most potential as illustrated in many studies and therefore it is predominantly responsible for photodamage and cytotoxic reactions. The aim of this study was to check whether singlet oxygen (Type II photochemistry) is more potential than free radicals (Type I photochemistry) against Streptococcus mutans biofilm. We have taken two phenothiazinium dyes i.e. toluidine blue O (TBO) and new methylene blue (NMB). TBO was found to have better antibacterial as well as antibiofilm effect than NMB. Antibacterial effect was evaluated by colony forming unit while antibiofilm action by crystal violet and congo red binding assays. We have also evaluated the disruption of preformed biofilm by biofilm reduction assay, confocal laser electron and scanning electron microscopy. More singlet oxygen production was detected in case of TBO than NMB while more Free radical (HO) was produced by NMB than TBO. TBO showed better antibacterial as well as antibiofilm effect than NMB so; we conclude that potency of a photosensitizer is correlated with the capability to produce singlet oxygen.

Abstract
Recent analysis of transcriptomes has revealed that RNAs perform a myriad of functions beyond encoding proteins. Critical to RNA function is its transport to unique subcellular locations. Despite the importance of RNA localization, it is still very challenging to study in an unbiased manner. We recently described the ability to tag RNA molecules within subcellular locations through spatially restricted nucleobase oxidation. Herein, we describe a dramatic improvement of this protocol through the localized oxidation and tagging of proteins. Isolation of RNA-protein complexes enabled the enrichment of challenging RNA targets on chromatin and presented a considerably optimized protocol for the analysis of RNA subcellular localization within living cells.

Abstract
Protein-protein interactions regulate many biological processes. Identification of interacting proteins is thus an important step toward molecular understanding of cell signaling. The aim of this study was to investigate the use of photo-generated singlet oxygen and a small molecule for proximity labeling of interacting proteins in cellular environment. The protein of interest (POI) was fused with a small singlet oxygen photosensitizer (miniSOG), which generates singlet oxygen ((1)O2) upon irradiation. The locally generated singlet oxygen then activated a biotin-conjugated thiol molecule to form a covalent bond with the proteins nearby. The labeled proteins can then be separated and subsequently identified by mass spectrometry. To demonstrate the applicability of this labeling technology, we fused the miniSOG to Skp2, an F-box protein of the SCF ubiquitin ligase, and expressed the fusion protein in mammalian cells and identified that the surface cysteine of its interacting partner Skp1 was labeled by the biotin-thiol molecule. This photoactivatable protein labeling method may find important applications including identification of weak and transient protein-protein interactions in the native cellular context, as well as spatial and temporal control of protein labeling.

Oxidative stress in mammalian cells impinges on the cysteines redox state of human XRCC3 protein and on its cellular localization. PLoS One 2013; 8:e75751.

Abstract
In vertebrates, XRCC3 is one of the five Rad51 paralogs that plays a central role in homologous recombination (HR), a key pathway for maintaining genomic stability. While investigating the potential role of human XRCC3 (hXRCC3) in the inhibition of DNA replication induced by UVA radiation, we discovered that hXRCC3 cysteine residues are oxidized following photosensitization by UVA. Our in silico prediction of the hXRCC3 structure suggests that 6 out of 8 cysteines are potentially accessible to the solvent and therefore potentially exposed to ROS attack. By non-reducing SDS-PAGE we show that many different oxidants induce hXRCC3 oxidation that is monitored in Chinese hamster ovarian (CHO) cells by increased electrophoretic mobility of the protein and in human cells by a slight decrease of its immunodetection. In both cell types, hXRCC3 oxidation was reversed in few minutes by cellular reducing systems. Depletion of intracellular glutathione prevents hXRCC3 oxidation only after UVA exposure though depending on the type of photosensitizer. In addition, we show that hXRCC3 expressed in CHO cells localizes both in the cytoplasm and in the nucleus. Mutating all hXRCC3 cysteines to serines (XR3/S protein) does not affect the subcellular localization of the protein even after exposure to camptothecin (CPT), which typically induces DNA damages that require HR to be repaired. However, cells expressing mutated XR3/S protein are sensitive to CPT, thus highlighting a defect of the mutant protein in HR. In marked contrast to CPT treatment, oxidative stress induces relocalization at the chromatin fraction of both wild-type and mutated protein, even though survival is not affected. Collectively, our results demonstrate that the DNA repair protein hXRCC3 is a target of ROS induced by environmental factors and raise the possibility that the redox environment might participate in regulating the HR pathway.

Abstract
Sodium azide (NaN(3)) is widely employed to quench singlet oxygen during photodynamic therapy (PDT), especially when PDT is used to kill bacteria in suspension. We observed that addition of NaN(3) (100 μM or 10 mM) to gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and gram-negative Escherichia coli incubated with methylene blue (MB) and illuminated with red light gave significantly increased bacterial killing (1-3 logs), rather than the expected protection from killing. A different antibacterial photosensitizer, the conjugate between polyethylenimine and chlorin(e6) (PEI-ce6), showed reduced PDT killing (1-2 logs) after addition of 10mM NaN(3). Azide (0.5mM) potentiated bacterial killing by Fenton reagent (hydrogen peroxide and ferrous sulfate) by up to 3 logs, but protected against killing mediated by sodium hypochlorite and hydrogen peroxide (considered to be a chemical source of singlet oxygen). The intermediacy of N(3)() was confirmed by spin-trapping and electron spin resonance studies in both MB-photosensitized reactions and Fenton reagent with addition of NaN(3). We found that N(3)() was formed and bacteria were killed even in the absence of oxygen, suggesting the direct one-electron oxidation of azide anion by photoexcited MB. This observation suggests a possible mechanism to carry out oxygen-independent PDT.

Abstract
Amyloid fibril formation involves three steps; structural perturbation, nucleation and elongation. We have investigated amyloidogenesis using prion protein as a model system and UV-light as a structural perturbant. We find that UV-exposed prion protein fails to form amyloid fibrils. Interestingly, if provided with pre-formed fibrils as seeds, UV-exposed prion protein formed amyloid fibrils albeit with slightly different morphology. Atomic force microscopy and electron microscopic studies clearly show the formation of fibrils under these conditions. Circular dichroism study shows loss in helicity in UV-exposed protein. UV-exposed prion protein fails to form amyloid fibrils. However, it remains competent for fibril extension, suggesting that UV-exposure results in loss of nucleating capability. This work opens up possibility of segregating nucleation and elongation step of amyloidogenesis, facilitating screening of new drug candidates for specifically inhibiting either of these processes. In addition, the work also highlights the importance of light-induced structural and functional alterations which are important in protein based therapeutics.

Abstract
Singlet oxygen is a highly reactive electrophilic species that reacts rapidly with electron-rich moieties, such as the double bonds of lipids, thiols, and ascorbate (AscH-). The reaction of ascorbate with singlet oxygen is rapid (k = 3 x 10(8) M(-1) s(-1)). Here we have investigated the stoichiometry of this reaction. Using electrodes to make simultaneous, real-time measurements of oxygen and hydrogen peroxide concentrations, we have investigated the products of this reaction. We have demonstrated that hydrogen peroxide is a product of this reaction. The stoichiometry for the reactants of the reaction (1 1O2 + 1AscH--->1H2O2 + 1dehydroascorbic) is 1:1. The formation of H2O2 results in a very different oxidant that has a longer lifetime and much greater diffusion distance. Thus, locally produced singlet oxygen with a half-life of 1 ns to 1 micros in a biological setting is changed to an oxidant that has a much longer lifetime and thus can diffuse to distant targets to initiate biological oxidations.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are formed enzymatically, chemically, photochemically, and by irradiation of food. They are also formed by the decomposition and the inter-reactions of ROS. Hydroxy radical is the most reactive ROS, followed by singlet oxygen. Reactions of ROS with food components produce undesirable volatile compounds and carcinogens, destroy essential nutrients, and change the functionalities of proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates. Lipid oxidation by ROS produces low molecular volatile aldehydes, alcohols, and hydrocarbons. ROS causes crosslink or cleavage of proteins and produces low molecular carbonyls from carbohydrates. Vitamins are easily oxidized by ROS, especially singlet oxygen. The singlet oxygen reaction rate was the highest in ss-carotene, followed by tocopherol, riboflavin, vitamin D, and ascorbic acid.

Abstract
Di-cysteine substituted hypocrellin B (DCHB) is a new water-soluble photosensitizer with significantly enhanced red absorption at wavelengths longer than 600 nm over the parent compound hypocrellin B (HB). The photosensitizing properties (Type I and/or Type II mechanisms) of DCHB have been investigated in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and aqueous solution (pH 7.4) using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and spectrophotometric methods. In anaerobic DMSO solution, the semiquinone anion radical of DCHB (DCHB-) is predominantly photoproduced via self-electron transfer between excited- and ground-state DCHB species. The presence of an electron donor significantly promotes the formation of the reduced form of DCHB. When a deoxygenated aqueous solution of DCHB and an electron door are irradiated with 532 nm light, the hydroquinone of DCHB (DCHBH2) is formed via the disproportionation of the first-formed DCHB- and second electron transfer to DCHB- and second electron transfer to DCHB- from the electron donor. When oxygen is present, singlet oxygen (1 O2), superoxide anion radical (O2-) and hydroxyl radical (OH) are produced. The quantum yield of 1 O2 generation by DCHB photosensitization is estimated to be 0.54 using Rose Bengal as a reference, a little lower than that of HB (0.76). The superoxide anion radical is also significantly enhanced by the presence of electron donors. Moreover, O2- upon disproportionation generated H2O2 and ultimately the highly reactive OH via the Haber-Weiss reaction pathway. The efficiency of O2- generation by DCHB is obviously enhanced over that of HB. These findings suggest that the photodynamic actions of DCHB may proceed via type I and Type II mechanisms and that this new photosensitizer retains photosensitizing activity after photodynamic therapy-oriented chemical modification.

Abstract
Porphyrias are a family of inherited diseases, each associated with a partial defect in one of the enzymes of the heme biosynthetic pathway. In six of the eight porphyrias described, the main clinical manifestation is skin photosensitivity brought about by the action of light on porphyrins, which are deposited in the upper epidermal layer of the skin. Porphyrins absorb light energy intensively in the UV region, and to a lesser extent in the long visible bands, resulting in transitions to excited electronic states. The excited porphyrin may react directly with biological structures (type I reactions) or with molecular oxygen, generating excited singlet oxygen (type II reactions). Besides this well-known photodynamic action of porphyrins, a novel light-independent effect of porphyrins has been described. Irradiation of enzymes in the presence of porphyrins mainly induces type I reactions, although type II reactions could also occur, further increasing the direct non-photodynamic effect of porphyrins on proteins and macro-molecules. Conformational changes of protein structure are induced by porphyrins in the dark or under UV light, resulting in reduced enzyme activity and increased proteolytic susceptibility. The effect of porphyrins depends not only on their physico-chemical properties but also on the specific site on the protein on which they act. Porphyrin action alters the functionality of the enzymes of the heme biosynthetic pathway exacerbating the metabolic deficiencies in porphyrias. Light energy absorption by porphyrins results in the generation of oxygen reactive species, overcoming the protective cellular mechanisms and leading to molecular, cell and tissue damage, thus amplifying the porphyric picture.

Abstract
Zinc(II) phthalocyanine (ZnPC) is a new photosensitizer currently undergoing phase I and II clinical trials at Lausanne's CHUV hospital for the photodynamic therapy (PDT) of early cancer in the upper aerodigestive tract. Activated oxygen species other than singlet oxygen produced during the photosensitization of ZnPC in liposomes have been examined by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spin trapping and by the cytochrome c reduction method. Visible light irradiation of ZnPC associated with liposomes in the presence of the spin trap 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-1-oxide (DMPO) gives an EPR spectrum characteristic of the DMPO-hydroperoxyl radical spin adduct (DMPO-.OOH). Superoxide anion attains a level of 1 microM min-1 20 min after the start of irradiation as determined by the superoxide dismutase (SOD)-inhibitable reduction of cytochrome c. The yield of O2.- is strongly enhanced by physiological electron donors. An EPR spectrum characteristic of the DMPO-hydroxyl radical spin adduct (DMPO-.OH) is also observed. The addition of dimethyl sulphoxide or ethanol produces additional hyperfine splittings due to the respective hydroxyalkyl radical products, indicating the presence of free .OH. DMPO-.OH is significantly inhibited by desferrioxamine or catalase. Conversely, this adduct is enhanced by hydrogen peroxide. These data demonstrate the ability of ZnPC in liposomes to photoreact effectively by an electron transfer mechanism. Such type I processes may add to the effects of singlet oxygen in ZnPC-mediated PDT.

Abstract
Flow cytometry was used to investigate the participation of reactive oxygen species, other than singlet oxygen, in the cytotoxic effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) with 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-induced protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) in vitro in A-431 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cells and human skin fibroblasts (HSF). We used propidium iodide to determine cellular cytotoxicity, hydroethidine to measure intracellular superoxide anion (O2-) and dihydrorhodamine 123 to assess intracellular hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) content. Our data support the importance of the incubation time with ALA in the selectivity of PDT with ALA against SCC cells, inducing minimum damage on normal HSF. Photoradiation mortality curves of the response of these cell lines to ALA-induced PpIX photosensitization correlated with the extent of photosensitizer accumulation. Intracellular O2- production correlated with cell death, increasing both in a light dose-dependent fashion in ALA treated cells. This correlation was not observed with H2O2-intracellular production. These results suggest the effectiveness of PDT with ALA in vitro in SCC, the significant participation of O2- in its phototoxic mechanism, and the usefulness of flow cytometry in the study of the cytotoxic effect of ALA-induced PpIX PDT.

Abstract
In previous work certain hydroxylated and peroxylated derivatives of uroporphyrin (URO) have been isolated from the urine of patients suffering from porphyria. We have now investigated the mechanism of production of these oxygenated derivatives of URO, using both enzymic and chemical model systems and also the effect of exposure to light during reoxidation of uroporphyrinogen (URO'gen). When URO'gen was incubated with haemolysates, peaks with the same retention times as peroxyacetic acid URO, meso-hydroxy URO and beta-hydroxypropionic acid URO were all detected. The first of these was formed in sufficient amounts to allow its characterization by mass spectrometry. Under these conditions, peroxyacetic acid derivatives of heptacarboxylate and pentacarboxylate porphyrins could also be produced from the corresponding porphyrinogens, but no peroxylated product could be obtained from coproporphyrinogen (COPRO'gen, where no acetic acid side chains are present) or from the fully oxidized URO. Similar results were obtained on re-oxidation of URO'gen in the xanthine oxidase-xanthine system and in the presence of hydrogen peroxide/Fe-EDTA (ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid) and here again no peroxylated product could be detected from either COPRO'gen or URO. Finally, formation of peroxyacetic acid URO could be demonstrated during photo-oxidation of URO'gen and this was followed by light-induced loss of both URO and its peroxylated derivative. It is concluded that the oxygenated derivatives arise from the action of reactive oxygen species on the porphyrinogens (rather than the porphyrins), with one of the acetic acid side chain serving as the preferential (or exclusive target) for peroxylation.

Abstract
The lipophilic cationic porphyrin derivative 5.10.15.20-tetrakis(1-decylpyridinium-4-yl)-21H.23H-++ +porphin tetrabromide (POR10) binds to the mitochondria of living HeLa cells and can be used for the selective photosensitization of mitochondria. Cytotoxic and phototoxic effects were studied by means of electron microscopy and respiratory activity and compared with the effects of the hydrophilic cationic 5.10.15.20-tetrakis(1-methylpyridinium-4-yl)-21H.23H-porp hin tetraiodide (POR1) and the anionic 5.10.15.20-tetrakis(1-sulphophen-4-yl)-21H,23H-porp hin (TPPS). Lipophilic and hydrophilic molecules behave quite differently. The mitochondria are much more attacked by the lipophilic POR10 than by the hydrophilic POR1 and TPPS. At low POR10 concentrations and short incubation periods (C(D) < 0.1 microM; tI < 1 h), the mitochondrial ultrastructure scarcely alters, but, on increasing concentrations and prolonged incubation periods, in particular the cristae were affected. Irradiation (lambda > 425 nm) of incubated HeLa cells also strongly attacks the cristae. For example, after incubation under mild conditions (0.1 microM; 1 h) and subsequent irradiation (12 min at 65 mW cm(-2)) the cristae were partially destroyed. After incubation under intensified conditions (1 microM; 1 h) and subsequent irradiation (15 min at 25 mW cm(-2)) the cristae disappeared completely and the mitochondria were transformed into globular vesicles surrounded by a double membrane. Surprisingly, respiratory activity increased (115%) after POR10 treatment under mild conditions (0.1 microM; 30 min). However, subsequent irradiation for only 2 min (65 mW cm(-2)) decreased the respiratory activity to 18% relative to the untreated control (100%). Much smaller effects were observed with POR1-treated cells. We assume that the lipophilic POR10 cations, like other lipophilic dye cations, bind to the very lipophilic enzymes of the respiratory chain, which are constituents of the cristae. In contrast with POR10 the hydrophilic porphyrin derivatives are spread over several cellular compartments and are less phototoxic.

Abstract
One-electron oxidation of the antiatherogenic and antiatherosclerotic drug probucol has been studied in relation to its activity as an antioxidant. Oxidation by triplet excited states of duroquinone and benzophenone, and by the inorganic radicals Br2.- and N3., lead to the formation of a transient absorption at 500 nm. This was identified by time-resolved resonance Raman spectroscopy as the phenoxyl radical from probucol, formed by hydrogen atom or electron plus proton loss from one of the phenolic groups of probucol. The reactivity of probucol with triplet duroquinone and triplet benzophenone, and as a quencher of singlet oxygen, was compared with the reactivities of other antioxidants (alpha-tocopherol, palmitoyl ascorbic acid, dihydrolipoic acid and N-acetyl cysteine). In quenching of the triplet states the reactivity of probucol was comparable with that of alpha-tocopherol, whereas as a quencher of singlet oxygen probucol (k < 10(6) M-1 s-1) was less effective than alpha-tocopherol (k = 2.0 x 10(8) M-1 s-1) by more than two orders of magnitude. This difference in reactivity may allow the contribution of singlet oxygen towards oxidative stress to be quantified separately.

Abstract
The photophysical and photochemical properties of porphyrins were profoundly changed upon addition of rhodamine 123. The Soret band of the porphyrins shifted to higher wavelengths, the fluorescence yield of the porphyrins decreased with unaltered decay rates, and their triplet state was quenched. These observations indicate a strong interaction between porphyrins and rhodamine 123 and formation of 1:1 nonfluorescent complexes, of which the binding constants were determined. Illumination of a porphyrin in the presence of rhodamine 123 resulted in the formation of a porphyrin radical cation, which could be detected with ESR spectroscopy. Quenching of the triplet state of the porphyrins by rhodamine 123 resulted in a decreased singlet oxygen yield and a decrease of the photooxidation of histidine, methionine, tyrosine, and tryptophan. However, the oxidation of thiol compounds was increased and the stoichiometry of the reaction between cysteine and oxygen changed from 2 to 3.8 mol cysteine/ mol oxygen. These results show that the presence of rhodamine 123 converted the for porphyrins prevalent energy transfer (type II) reaction to an electron transfer (type I) reaction.

Abstract
1. Neutrophil NADPH oxidase produces the superoxide anion (O2-) anion radical from oxygen. The thiol containing ACE inhibitor, captopril has been reported to inhibit isolated NADPH oxidase. The above effect of captopril, if present in intact cells, could contribute to the ability of this drug to alleviate neutrophil-mediated tissue damage. We have, therefore, investigated the effect of captopril on the oxidative activity of intact human isolated neutrophils. 2. The effects of captopril on neutrophil oxidative activity were compared with those of enalaprilat (a non-thiol ACE inhibitor) and N-mercaptopropionyl glycine (MPG) (a simple thiol). 3. The oxidative response of PMA-stimulated neutrophils measured by lucigenin chemiluminescence was not affected by any of these test agents. The thiol captopril and MPG (but not enalaprilat) caused an initial delay in luminol chemiluminescence production by PMA-stimulated neutrophils. 4. Captopril and MPG (but not enalaprilat) increased, rather than decreased oxygen uptake, when added to PMA-stimulated neutrophils. Thiol oxidation was determined to be, at least partly, responsible for the excess oxygen uptake observed. 5. NADPH oxidase activity in intact neutrophils was not affected by captopril, MPG or enalaprilat. The inhibition of NADPH oxidase activity is unlikely to contribute to the therapeutic effects of captopril and other thiols.

Abstract
1. The smooth muscle system of the guinea-pig taenia caeci has been used in vitro to characterize the photodynamic action of aluminium phthalocyanine tetrasulphonate (A1PcS4) in the presence or absence of the thiol reductants L-cysteine (Cys), N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), DL-dithiothreitol (DTT) or reduced glutathione (GSH). 2. In all photodynamic experiments the muscle was exposed to A1PcS4 (10(-5) M) for 30 min, followed by a 30 min washout period before photon irradiation at 32,000 lux (lambda > 570 nm) for 30 min. Photodynamic contractions were measured relative to the contractile response to carbachol (5 x 10(-5) M) and relaxation responses were determined in muscle precontracted with either carbachol 5 x 10(-5) M or KCl 23.5 mM. 3. Photon-activation of A1PcS4-sensitized smooth muscle evoked a triphasic response: an initial transient contraction and subsequent relaxation followed by a secondary sustained contraction. Cys 10 mM, NAC 10 mM and DTT 5 mM had no effect on the initial photodynamic contraction but significantly decreased the magnitude of the sustained contraction from mean values of 98% to 18%, 95% to 72% and 93% to 6% of the standard carbachol contraction (5 x 10(-5) M), respectively; GSH 10 mM was without significant effect on either the initial or sustained contraction. 4. In the absence of extracellular calcium the A1PcS4-sensitized smooth muscle did not respond to photon activation but re-introduction of calcium after cessation of illumination produced a sustained contraction which was markedly inhibited by Cys 10 mM. 5. In precontracted AlPcS4-treated muscle preparations photon activation produced a triphasic relaxation response, i.e. a rapid relaxation followed by a transient contraction and a secondary more sustained relaxation. The sustained phase of photodynamic relaxation was potentiated significantly by Cys 10 mM,NAC 10 mM, DTT 5 mM and GSH 10 mM, the relaxation being approximately doubled in magnitude from mean values of 34% to 68%, 30% to 73%, 34% to 68%, and 48% to 77%, respectively, relative to the standard carbachol (5 x l0-5 M) response.6. The cyclic GMP analogue, 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-guanosine-3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-PCPTcGMP)(2 x 10-4 M) alone caused a triphasic relaxation response similar to that produced by photon activation of an AIPcS4-sensitized precontracted preparation in the presence of thiol reductants. The pattern of 8-PCPT-cGMP-induced relaxation was similar in muscle precontracted with carbachol 5 x 10-5M or KCI 23.5 mM.7. It is concluded that the rapid generation of reactive intermediates by photon-activation of boundAlPcS4 leads to membrane permeabilization, calcium entry and muscle contraction. These effects may be opposed by a direct stimulatory action of singlet oxygen on guanylate cyclase which is enhanced by the action of thiol reagents and mimicked by the cyclic GMP analogue, 8-PCPT-cGMP.

Abstract
These experiments examined the effect of reactive oxygen intermediates, produced by laser illumination of the photosensitizer hematoporphyrin derivative, on the accumulation and release of norepinephrine from sympathetic nerve terminals. Using an isolated, spirally cut, superfused caudal artery of the rat, basal overflow of norepinephrine (NE) was significantly increased both during and after generation of reactive oxygen intermediates. Generation of reactive oxygen intermediates increased overflow of NE in vascular preparations in which release of NE had previously been elevated by the continuous superfusion of Krebs' solution, containing high concentrations of potassium (40 mM). Calcium free solutions did not block the overflow of norepinephrine augmented by reactive oxygen intermediates. This increase in overflow was due both to an increase in release of NE and an inhibition of accumulation of NE.

Abstract
Photoexcited hematoporphyrin (Hp) induces the uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation of mitochondria. The uncoupling was inhibited by pre-incubation of mitochondria with a fluorescent SH reagent, eosin-5-maleimide, which has been shown to react specifically with an essential SH group of the Pi/H+ symporter [Houstek and Pedersen, J Biol Chem 260: 6288-6295, 1985]. Eosin-5-maleimide labeled 33, 34.5 and 36 kDa proteins in untreated rat liver mitochondria. When eosin-5-maleimide was added after the treatment with Hp plus light, the proteins were not labeled. Singlet oxygen detection by the ESR spin trapping method during photoradiation of Hp was inhibited by amino acids. Cysteine inhibited it more efficiently than histidine, methionine, tryptophan, tyrosine or alanine under the conditions used. HPLC demonstrated that Hp plus light oxidizes cysteine to cystine together with a smaller amount of cysteinesulfinic acid. These results suggest that Hp plus light oxidizes the SH group of mitochondrial protein, probably the Pi/H+ symporter, with singlet oxygen as a mediator. The possibility of the uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation through such a modification of the Pi/H+ symporter is discussed.

Abstract
Using solutions of different polarity and various reducing (oxidizing) substrates, the type I (free radical) and type II (singlet oxygen) photosensitizing efficiencies of haematoporphyrin (HP), haematoporphyrin derivative (HPD, Photofrin II) and free-base tetrasulphophthalocyanine (TSPC-H2) were investigated. The quantum yields of 1O2-mediated oxidation of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-oxopiperidine (TEMP) followed the order QHP greater than QHPD greater than QTSPC-H2 in all the reaction media investigated. Monomeric TSPC-H2 effectively generates O2-. as shown by spin-trapping measurements. It is probable that both HPD and TSPC-H2 can oxidize L-tryptophan (Trp) via a mixed type I and type II mechanism, depending on the polarity of the medium. Both HP and TSPC-H2 in the monomeric form can be readily photoreduced by mild electron donors (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), cysteine, sodium ascorbate, etc.). However, the reaction efficiencies differ because of the higher net negative electrical charge of TSPC-H2.

Abstract
Oxidative degradation of cell membrane lipids in the presence of molecular oxygen, a sensitizing agent and exciting light is termed photodynamic lipid peroxidation (photoperoxidation). Like other types of lipid peroxidation, photoperoxidation is detrimental to membrane structure and function, and could play a role in many of the toxic as well as therapeutic effects of photodynamic action. Recent advances in our understanding of photoperoxidation and its biomedical implications are reviewed in this article. Specific areas of interest include (a) reaction mechanisms; (b) methods of detection and quantitation; and (c) cellular defenses (enzymatic and non-enzymatic).

Abstract
The effect of free fatty acids on the process of hemoglobin conversion and lipid peroxidation has been studied in model systems and erythrocytes. It has been found that methemoglobin and oxyhemoglobin are converted to the low spin oxidized form, namely, reversible hemichrome under the action of fatty acids. In the case of oxyhemoglobin, an increase in the level of active oxygen forms is observed in the system which initiates the formation of primary and secondary lipid peroxidation products. Incubation of erythrocytes with free fatty acids causes the formation of Heinz bodies and is accompanied by an increase of the lipid peroxidation level.

Abstract
An investigation of the production of radical species by photoexcitation pheophorbide alpha, haematoporphyrin and protoporphyrin was performed. In an aqueous solution containing different amounts of ethanol, the superoxide radical was detected by the spin trapping technique. In addition, secondary radicals were observed. The generation of oxygen radicals was found to dominate in solutions with a low ethanol content.

Abstract
The cell-damaging photochemistry of hematoporphyrin derivative (HPD) has been investigated using isolated erythrocyte membranes as a test system. Irradiation of membranes in the presence of the tumor-localizing fraction of HPD resulted in formation of singlet molecular oxygen (1O2) as measured by the phosphorescence at 1268 nm. The authentic product of 1O2 attack on cholesterol, 3 beta-hydroxy-5 alpha-cholest-6-ene-5-hydroperoxide, was identified in this system. Relatively insignificant amounts of free radical-derived hydroperoxides were detected. These results suggest that 1O2 plays a major role in the HPD-sensitized photokilling of tumor cells in vivo.
