Abstract
In the present study, effects of cis-9,10-epoxystearic acid (ESA) generated by the thermal oxidation of oleic acid on HepG2 cells, including intracellular lipid accumulation, fatty acid composition, and lipid metabolism, were investigated. Our results revealed that ESA increased the number and size of cellular lipid droplets. Intracellular triacylglycerol and total cholesterol content demonstrated that ESA induced lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Results of fatty acid composition further indicated that ESA could lead to intracellular lipid accumulation. Our results also revealed that ESA may suppress the fatty acid oxidation in peroxisomes and mitochondria, including PPARα, Cpt1α, and Acox1, whereas the expression of genes involved in lipid synthesis, including Srebp-1c and Scd1, was enhanced. These findings provide critical information on the effects of ESA on HepG2 cells, particularly lipid accumulation and metabolism, which is important for evaluating the biosafety of the oxidative product of oleic acid. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The administration of cis-9,10-epoxystearic acid to HepG2 cells could lead to disorder of lipid metabolism of cells by enhancing the intracellular lipid content, as well as suppressing the fatty acid oxidation in peroxisomes and mitochondria. These findings could provide information for the evaluation of the biosafety of the oxidative product of oleic acid.

Food Res Int 2019; 125:108558. [PMID: 31554043 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2019.108558] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2019] [Revised: 06/21/2019] [Accepted: 07/11/2019] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
Few in vitro studies have tackled the effect of alpha-tocopherol on lipid oxidation during digestion, and discrepant results have been reported. As a result, the aim of this study was to elucidate whether the addition of alpha-tocopherol enhances or slows down the advance of oxidation that occurs during in vitro gastrointestinal digestion of polyunsaturated lipids. For this purpose, commercial sunflower and flaxseed oils (as models of omega-6 and omega-3 rich lipid systems, respectively) were in vitro digested in the absence or in the presence of this tocol at different concentrations (0.02%, 0.2% and 2%). Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR) and Solid Phase Microextraction followed by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (SPME-GC/MS) were used to investigate in detail potential differences among the digests regarding lipolysis and oxidation level. Alpha-tocopherol addition did not affect the advance of lipolysis, whereas lipid oxidation was enhanced in a dose-dependent manner. In this regard, the increased degradation of polyunsaturated lipids and greater generation of primary and secondary oxidation products observed at higher concentrations of alpha-tocopherol confirmed this observation. Among the formed oxidation products, hydroperoxy-, hydroxy- and keto-dienes, as well as oxygenated alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes are worth mentioning. The in vitro bioaccessibility of added tocopherol was estimated to be very low, suggesting a notable transformation under the assayed conditions. Further in vivo studies are necessary to confirm this prooxidant activity of alpha-tocopherol during gastrointestinal digestion.

Abstract
Small catalase-related hemoproteins with a facility to react with fatty acid hydroperoxides were examined for their potential mono-oxygenase activity when activated using iodosylbenzene. The proteins tested were a Fusarium graminearum 41 kD catalase hemoprotein (Fg-cat, gene FGSG_02217), a Pseudomonas fluorescens Pfl01 catalase (37.5 kD, accession number WP_011333788.1), and a Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis 33 kD catalase (gene MAP-2744c). 13-Hydroxy-octadecenoic acids (which are normally unreactive) were selected as substrates because these enzymes react specifically with the corresponding 13S-hydroperoxides (Pakhomova et al. 18:2559-2568, 5; Teder et al. 1862:706-715, 14). In the presence of iodosylbenzene Fg-cat converted 13S-hydroxy-fatty acids to two products: the 15,16-double bond of 13S-hydroxy α-linolenic acid was oxidized stereospecifically to the 15S,16R-cis-epoxide or the 13-hydroxyl was oxidized to the 13-ketone. Products were identified by UV, HPLC, LC-MS, NMR and by comparison with authentic standards prepared for this study. The Pfl01-cat displayed similar activity. MAP-2744c oxidized 13S-hydroxy-linoleic acid to the 13-ketone, and epoxidized the double bonds to form the 9,10-epoxy-13-hydroxy, 11,12-epoxy-13-hydroxy, and 9,10-epoxy-13-keto derivatives; equivalent transformations occurred with 9S-hydroxy-linoleic acid as substrate. In parallel incubations in the presence of iodosylbenzene, human catalase displayed no activity towards 13S-hydroxy-linoleic acid, as expected from the highly restricted access to its active site. The results indicated that with suitable transformation to Compound I, monooxygenase activity can be demonstrated by these catalase-related hemoproteins with tyrosine as the proximal heme ligand.

Abstract
Herein, we characterize a generally applicable transformation of fatty acid epoxides by lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes that results in the formation of a five-membered endoperoxide ring in the end product. We demonstrated this transformation using soybean LOX-1 in the metabolism of 15,16-epoxy-α-linolenic acid, and murine platelet-type 12-LOX and human 15-LOX-1 in the metabolism of 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (14,15-EET). A detailed examination of the transformation of the two enantiomers of 15,16-epoxy-α-linolenic acid by soybean LOX-1 revealed that the expected primary product, a 13S-hydroperoxy-15,16-epoxide, underwent a nonenzymatic transformation in buffer into a new derivative that was purified by HPLC and identified by UV, LC-MS, and ¹H-NMR as a 13,15-endoperoxy-16-hydroxy-octadeca-9,11-dienoic acid. The configuration of the endoperoxide (cis or trans side chains) depended on the steric relationship of the new hydroperoxy moiety to the enantiomeric configuration of the fatty acid epoxide. The reaction mechanism involves intramolecular nucleophilic substitution (SNi) between the hydroperoxy (nucleophile) and epoxy group (electrophile). Equivalent transformations were documented in metabolism of the enantiomers of 14,15-EET by the two mammalian LOX enzymes, 15-LOX-1 and platelet-type 12-LOX. We conclude that this type of transformation could occur naturally with the co-occurrence of LOX and cytochrome P450 or peroxygenase enzymes, and it could also contribute to the complexity of products formed in the autoxidation reactions of polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Abstract
We have investigated the oxidative behaviour of natural compounds such as methyl abietate (1), farnesyl acetate (2), α-ionone (3), β-ionone (4), methyl linolelaidate (5), methyl linolenate (6) and bergamottin (7) with the oxidant system methyltrioxo-rhenium/H2O2/pyridine. The reactions, performed in CH2Cl2/H2O at 25 °C, have shown good regio- and stereoselectivity. The oxidation products were isolated by HPLC or silica gel chromatography and characterized by MS(EI), 1H-, 13C-NMR, APT, gCOSY, HSQC, TOCSY and NOESY measurements. The selectivity seems to be controlled by the nucleophilicity of double bonds and by stereoelectronic and steric effects.

Abstract
The activities of cytochrome P450-derived epoxide metabolites of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in cellular homeostasis have generated considerable topical interest, but there is less information on the effects of omega-3 PUFA epoxides. Mass spectroscopic data on the epoxides of the omega-3 PUFA eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) have been reported but the absence of corresponding NMR data currently hinders their biological assessment. In the present study five monoepoxy derivatives of EPA methyl ester were synthesized by treating EPA methyl ester with m-chloroperbenzoic acid. The individual regioisomers were purified by normal-phase chromatography and characterized by LC-MS/MS and a combination of NMR approaches including (1)H-, (13)C-, (1)H-(1)H-COSY, (1)H-(13)C-HSQC, and (1)H-(13)C-HMBC. The chromatographic properties for these monoepoxides were studied in normal-phase and reversephase-HPLC systems and the MS/MS fragmentation patterns using electrospray ionization were established. This paper also focuses on the NMR characterization of epoxide, olefinic and methylenic moieties and the complete assignments of the isomers.
