Abstract
Cu2+ are found to greatly reduce the photoinduced oxidase activity of fluorescein and then inhibit the chromogenic reaction catalyzed by fluorescein. A simple colorimetric assay for Cu2+ is established. Based on this, bifunctional nanocomposites of α-fetoprotein (AFP) antibody (Ab) and copper-based metal-organic framework (Ab2@Cu-MOF) are synthesized by the simple self-assembly of AFP Ab2, Cu2+, and 4,4'-dipyridyl: the binding site of AFP Ab2 exposed on the surface of the nanocomposites can specifically recognize AFP antigen; Cu2+ in nanocomposites can inhibit the visible light-induced activity of fluorescein. The structure of Ab2@Cu-MOF disintegrate and Cu2+ is released in an acetate buffer solution. The higher the amount of AFP antigens, the more significant the inhibitory effect. Thus, the Ab2@Cu-MOF immunoassay for AFP determination is established using 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine as chromogenic substrate with a detection limit of 35 pg.mL-1. This simple, cheap, and sensitive method sheds substantial light on practical clinical diagnosis. Meanwhile, the mechanism of inhibition is revealed to facilitate the targeted selection of enzyme regulators.

Abstract
Aluminum (Al) is the most abundant metal element in the earth's crust, and is implicated in the pathogenesis of liver lesions. However, the mechanisms underlying Al3+-induced hepatotoxicity are still largely elusive. Based on analysis with native gel electrophoresis, Al3+ plus 8-hydroxyquinoline staining and LC-MS/MS, the proteins with high Al3+ affinity were identified to be carbamoyl-phosphate synthase, adenosylhomocysteinase, heat shock protein 90-alpha, carbonic anhydrase 3, serum albumin and calreticulin. These proteins are involved in physiological processes such as the urea cycle, redox reactions, apoptosis and so on. Then we established an Al3+-treated rat model for biochemical tests, morphology observation and Ca2+ homeostasis analysis, in order to evaluate the extent of oxidative damage, hepatic histopathology and specific indicators of Al3+-related proteins in liver. Our findings indicated the high-affinity interactions with Al3+ perturbed the normal function of the above proteins, which could account for the mechanism underlying Al3+-induced hepatotoxicity.

All-trans Arachidonic acid generates reactive oxygen species via xanthine dehydrogenase/xanthine oxidase interconversion in the rat liver cytosol in vitro. J Clin Biochem Nutr 2012; 51:55-60.

Abstract
We previously reported that the all-cis isomer of arachidonic acid, the most naturally occurring isoform of this fatty acid, reduced cuprous copper ion-induced conversion of xanthine dehydrogenase into its reactive oxygen species generating form, xanthine oxidase. In the present study, the effects of all-trans isomer of arachidonic acid, in comparison with cis isomer of arachidonic acid, on the xanthine dehydrogenase/xanthine oxidase interconversion were explored. cis isomer of arachidonic acid alone did not have any significant effect on the activities of xanthine dehydrogenase and xanthine oxidase, but it inhibited the cuprous copper ion-induced conversion of xanthine dehydrogenase to xanthine oxidase in rat liver cytosol in vitro. In contrast, trans isomer of arachidonic acid elicited an increase in xanthine oxidase activity concomitant with a decrease in xanthine dehydrogenase activity, and further potentiated the cuprous copper ion-induced xanthine dehydrogenase/xanthine oxidase interconversion. In primary rat hepatocyte cultures, trans isomer of arachidonic acid increased 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein-fluorescence intensity in the cytosolic fraction from 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein, an indicator of reactive oxygen species generation. The pretreatment of allopurinol, an xanthine oxidase inhibitor, diminished the trans isomer of arachidonic acid-induced increase in the 2',7'-dichlorofluorescein-fluorescence intensity, indicating the role of xanthine dehydrogenase/xanthine oxidase in mediating trans isomer of arachidonic acid-induced reactive oxygen species generation. These observations suggest that, in contrast to all-cis arachidonic acid, all-trans arachidonic acid has the potential to enhance reactive oxygen species generation via xanthine dehydrogenase/xanthine oxidase interconversion in the liver cytosol in vitro.

Abstract
Coelenterazine and derivatives were initially considered in the scientific community for their (bio)luminescent properties. Now, another interest of such hetero-bicycles has been pointed out by the discovery of remarkable antioxidative properties, and an unique mode of action as a "cascade": the mother-compound (imidazolopyrazinone) is transformed by ROS into a daughter-compound (2-amino-pyrazine) also endowed with antioxidative properties. This review illustrates the therapeutic potential of synthetic imidazolopyrazinones (coelenterazine analogues): chemical reactivity assays with singulet oxygen, radical anion superoxide, peroxynitrite, and radicals formed during lipid and LDL peroxidation, cellular tests of protection against oxidative stress using keratinocyte, hepatocyte, neuronal and erythrocyte cells, and finally in vivo evaluation in a hamster model of ischemia-reperfusion, are fully described.

Abstract
Effect of peroxynitrite (ONOO-) on the conversion of xanthine dehydrogenase to oxidase in rabbit liver was examined. ONOO- (25-200 microM) induced the conversion of xanthine dehydrogenase to oxidase in a dose-dependent manner. The addition of hydroxyl radical scavengers (mannitol and dimethyl sulfoxide) gave no alteration in the ONOO(-)-induced conversion of xanthine dehydrogenase to oxidase, implying that the action of ONOO- is not due to hydroxyl radicals which may be formed from ONOO-. The experiment utilizing dithiothreitol also revealed that the action of ONOO- might be due to oxidation of sulfhydryl group of xanthine dehydrogenase. These results suggest that ONOO- has the potential to convert xanthine dehydrogenase to oxidase, and that this effect may be correlated with cytotoxic actions of ONOO-.
