Abstract
Main spectrophotometric and chromatographic methods for determination of lipid oxidation in foods and biological systems are reviewed. A new classification, according to the compounds produced in the oxidation phases, is suggested as follows: measurement of oxygen absorption, conjugated dienes, peroxide values, and decomposition of lipid peroxides. Both conjugated dienes (propagation phase) and thiobarbituric acid (termination phase) methods are the most used, despite their interferences; however, chromatographic methods are more precise and selective. Determination of bioavailability and metabolic pathway of the antioxidants in the human body are problems to be solved in the devel opment of new biological antioxidants.

Abstract
Oxidative stress-induced lipid peroxidation (LPO) leads to the formation of cytotoxic and genotoxic 2-alkenals. LPO products such as 4-hydroxy-2(E)-nonenal (HNE) and 4-oxo-2(E)-nonenal (ONE) have been the subject of many studies due to their association with the development of cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, as well as cancer. LPO products are excreted in the urine after conjugation with glutathione (GSH) and subsequent metabolism to mercapturic acid (MA) conjugates. Urinary LPO-MA metabolites are stable end-product metabolites and have gained interest as non-invasive in vivo biomarkers of oxidative stress. This protocol describes a method for the quantitative analysis of LPO-MA metabolites in urine using isotope-dilution liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Included are protocols for preparation of labeled LPO-MA conjugates from unlabeled LPO products and deuterium labeled MA.

Abstract
4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) is a major end product of lipid peroxidation of membrane n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are found in food products. In order to examine the toxicity attributed to 4-HNE, a subacute toxicity study was conducted in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. For this study, 4 groups of 10 male and 10 female rats were administered by gavage either 0 (control), 0.5, 2.5, or 12.5 mg 4-HNE/kg body weight/d for 28 d, and then sacrificed for blood and tissue sampling. No significant changes in body weight or clinical signs were observed, but biochemical analysis showed significant alterations in hepatotoxicity biomarkers, such as levels of serum albumin and total bilirubin, and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activity, and in nephrotoxicity biomarkers, such as levels of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine and activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and urinary creatinine and protein levels at 0.5 mg/kg/d. In addition, significant increases in kidney and brain weights and a significant decrease in small intestine weight were noted at 12.5 mg/kg/d. Histologic examinations of kidneys showed hyaline droplets or accumulation of hyaline bodies in renal tubules and degeneration of tubular epithelium cells. These results demonstrate that oral daily exposure to 4-HNE for 28 d produced hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity. The no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) for 4-HNE was calculated to be <0.5 mg 4-HNE/kg/d.

Abstract
The epiphyte Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae 22d/93 (Pss22d) produces a toxin that strongly inhibits the growth of its relative, the plant pathogen P. syringae pv. glycinea. The inhibition can be overcome by supplementing the growth medium with the essential amino acid, L-arginine; this suggests that the toxin acts as an inhibitor of the arginine biosynthesis. The highly polar toxin was purified by bioassay-guided fractionation using ion-exchange chromatography and subsequent RP-HPLC fractionation. The structure of the natural product was identified by HR-ESI-MS, HR-ESI-MS/MS, and NMR spectroscopy experiments as 3-methylarginine. This amino acid has previously only been known in nature as a constituent of the peptide lavendomycin from Streptomyces lavendulae. Results of experiments in which labeled methionine was fed to Pss22d indicated that the key step in the biosynthesis of 3-methylarginine is the introduction of the methyl group by a S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)-dependent methyltransferase. Transposon mutagenesis of Pss22d allowed the responsible SAM-dependent methyltransferase of the 3-methylarginine biosynthesis to be identified.

Abstract
alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes are toxic products of lipid peroxidation. Detection and characterization of these aldehydes is important in many human disease states as well as in the food industry. Our study shows that electron ionization-mass spectrometry (EI-MS) and positive-ion chemical ionization-mass spectrometry (PICI-MS), but not electron capture negative ionization-mass spectrometry (ECNI-MS), can be used to detect the C4-hydroxylation state of alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes derivatized with pentafluorobenzyl hydroxylamine alone. EI-MS and PICI-MS spectra of 4-hydroxy-2-alkenals contained a fragment with m/z 252, whereas spectra of 2-alkenals contained a fragment with m/z 250. These fragments are consistent with fragmentation between C3 and C4 with transfer of two hydrogens from C4 and the C4 hydroxyl group in the case of 4-hydroxy-2-alkenals. In addition, EI-MS and PICI-MS were able to distinguish 4-hydroxy-2-alkenals and 2-alkenals from 4-keto-2-alkenals and 4-hydroxyalkanals. On the other hand, ECNI-MS provided complex spectra regarding C4-hydroxylation state. Furthermore, the syn- and anti-configurations of PFB-oximes had different resultant spectra using ECNI-MS, but not with EI-MS or PICI-MS. These data indicate that EI-MS and PICI-MS are more amenable for structural analysis of alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes than ECNI-MS.

Abstract
A GC-MS-based method for the simultaneous quantification of common oxylipins along with labile and highly reactive compounds based on in situ derivatization with pentafluorobenzyl hydroxylamine to the corresponding O-2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzyl oximes (PFB oximes) is presented. The approach covers oxo derivatives such as jasmonic acid (JA), 12-oxophytodienoic acid (OPDA), certain phytoprostanes, unsaturated oxo-acids, oxo-hydroxy acids, and aldehyde fragments from the polar head of fatty acids. In the positive electron impact-MS mode, the PFB oximes display characteristic fragment ions that greatly facilitate the identification of oxylipins in complex matrices. In addition, the fluorinated derivatives allow a highly selective and low-background analysis by negative chemical ionization. Besides showing the general value of the method for the identification of a broad range of oxylipins (18 examples), we also demonstrate sensitivity, linearity, and reproducibility for the quantification of JA, OPDA, 11-oxo-9-undecenoic acid, and 13-oxo-9,11-tridecadienoic acid. The efficiency of the method is demonstrated by differential profiling of these four oxylipins in lima bean leaves after mechanical wounding and feeding by the herbivore Spodoptera littoralis. Caterpillar feeding induced several oxylipins, whereas after wounding only the level of JA increased. The rapid in situ derivatization prevents the isomerization of cis-JA to trans-JA. The resting level of JA in lima beans showed an isomer ratio of 80:20 for trans/cis-JA. After wounding, de novo synthesis of JA alters the ratio to 20:80 in favor of the cis isomer.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation has been associated with cell injury and possible carcinogenecity, for the products can damage cellular membrane and DNA. Among the products formed from lipid peroxidation, 4-hydroxy-2-alkenals are the major components and have been suggested to play a role in cellular toxicity. However, the difficulties of the quantification due to their strong reactivity during laboratory procedures hinder the exposure measurement of the compounds. A novel detection method based on the conversion of 4-hydroxy-2-alkenals to stable diols and to subsequent ortho-esters has been developed. Simultaneous detection in a sensitive single-ion monitoring mode by GC/MS was carried out, monitoring m/z 129, which was the common fragment ion for the ortho-esters derived from 4-hydroxy-2-alkenals. The proposed method was used to quantify 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal in oils and in oxidized arachidonic acid.

Abstract
Inflammation may ultimately result from damage to membrane lipids by reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as peroxide, superoxide anion, hydroxyl radical and singlet oxygen. This study compares some of the methods used to determine ROS-ethane exhalation, malondialdehyde quantified as thiobarbituric acid-reacting materials, and luminol-activated chemiluminescence (LAC)-and explores possible relationships with oedema formation in the rat foot-pad model. Iron nitrilotriacetate was the most effective of the model compounds tested in producing lipid peroxidation and ethane exhalation in mice. In the mouse and the rat, iron nitrilotriacetate caused increased ethane exhalation and concomitant increases in liver and kidney malondialdehyde. In the rat foot-pad oedema model, the challenge with Freund's complete adjuvant produced maximum malondialdehyde and maximum LAC in the inflamed paw 8 h after dosing, at which time oedema had also reached a high level. These effects were attributed mainly to hydroxyl radical and singlet oxygen. The inhibition of oedema by four anti-inflammatory drugs correlated well with LAC but less well with inhibition of malondialdehyde production. This study shows good agreement between different methods of determining ROS formation, and that inhibition of ROS formation in vivo is paralleled by a decrease in inflammation.

Abstract
Recently, a simple noninvasive screening test for colorectal cancer was proposed, based on a hypothesis involving galactose-containing carbohydrate moieties such as the ThomsenFriedenreich antigen. According to the hypothesis, such carbohydrate moieties, present in the human rectal mucous of patients with colorectal cancer, can be specifically oxidized with galactose oxidase to form substances that, upon reaction with Schiff reagent, yield purple (magenta) coloured compounds. While evaluating this proposed test, we discovered that the colour formation is not due to the proposed reaction between oxidized galactose moieties present in rectal mucous and Schiff reagent. We found instead that the mucous from colorectal cancer patients contains compounds that form purple (magenta) adducts with the Schiff reagent directly, i.e., they do not require oxidation by galactose oxidase. We have identified these compounds as long-chain aliphatic aldehydes, mainly palmitic aldehyde C15H31CH=O and stearic aldehyde C17H35CH=O. We have further found that the aldehydes originate from plasmalogens present in the phospholipid fraction of the mucous obtained from colorectal cancer patients. The aldehydes, present in plasmalogens as enol ethers, are released by the acidity of the Schiff reagent and in turn react with the Schiff reagent to form the coloured adducts. Correct identification of these markers could lead to the development of a more accurate colorectal cancer screening tool and to a deeper understanding of colorectal carcinogenesis.Key words: T-antigen, plasmalogen-derived aldehydes, colorectal cancer marker.

Abstract
Aging is related with an increase in oxidation products derived from nucleic acids, sugars, sterols and lipids. Evidence will be presented that these different oxidation products are generated by processes induced by changes in the cell membrane structure (CMS), and not by superoxide, as commonly assumed. CMS activate apparently membrane bound phospholipases A2 in mammals and plants. Such changes occur by proliferation, aging and especially by wounding. After activation of phospholipases, influx of Ca2+ ions and activation of lipoxygenases (LOX) is induced. The LOX transform polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) into lipid hydroperoxides (LOOHs), which seem to be decomposed by action of enzymes to signalling compounds. Following severe cell injury, LOX commit suicide. Their suicide liberates iron ions that induce nonenzymic lipid peroxidation (LPO) processes by generation of radicals. Radicals attack all compounds with the structural element -CH=CH-CH(2)-CH=CH-. Thus, they act on all PUFAs independently either in free or conjugated form. The most abundant LPO products are derived from linoleic acid. Radicals induce generation of peroxyl radicals, which oxidise a great variety of biological compounds including proteins and nucleic acids. Nonenzymic LPO processes are induced artificially by the treatment of pure PUFAs with bivalent metal ions. The products are separable after appropriate derivatisation by gas chromatography (GC). They are identified by electron impact mass spectrometry (EI/MS). The complete spectrum of LPO products obtained by artificial LPO of linoleic acid is detectable after wounding of tissue, in aged individuals and in patients suffering from age-dependent diseases. Genesis of different LPO products derived from linoleic acid will be discussed in detail. Some of the LPO products are of high chemical reactivity and therefore escape detection in biological surrounding. For instance, epoxides and highly unsaturated aldehydic compounds that apparently induce apoptosis.

Abstract
Exposure to pathogenic mineral dusts and fibres is associated with pulmonary changes including fibrosis and cancer. Investigations into aetiological mechanisms of these diseases have identified modifications in specific macromolecules as well as changes in certain early processes, which have preceded fibrosis and cancer. Peroxidation of lipids is one such modification, which is observed following exposure to mineral dusts and fibres. Their ability to initiate lipid peroxidation and the parameters that determine this ability have recently been reviewed. Part II of this review examines the relationship between the capacity of mineral dusts and fibres to initiate lipid peroxidation and a number of pathological changes they produce. The oxidative modification of polyunsaturated fatty acids is a major contributor to membrane damage in cells and has been implicated in a great variety of pathological processes. In most pathological conditions where an induction of lipid peroxidation is observed it is assumed to be the consequence of disease, without further establishing if the induction of lipid peroxidation may have preceded or accompanied the disease. In the great majority of instances, however, despite the difficulty in proving this association, a causal relationship between lipid peroxidation and disease cannot be ruled out.

Abstract
(Z)-11-Hexadecenyl acetate, the main pheromone component of Sesamia nonagrioides sex pheromone, is biosynthesized from palmitic acid by Delta(11)-desaturation followed by reduction and acetylation. Production of (Z)-11-hexadecenyl acetate is regulated by the Pheromone Biosynthesis Activating Neuropeptide (PBAN). Transformation of (Z)-11-hexadecen-1-ol into the corresponding acetate is a target step for PBAN in the regulation of this biosynthetic sequence, thus being the first example of a PBAN-activated acetylation. The production of the minor component (Z)-11-hexadecenal is also stimulated by PBAN. The usefulness of pentafluorobenzyloxime-derivatives for the analysis of aldehyde pheromone constituents by gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry is also reported.

Abstract
An HPLC (high performance liquid chromatography) method with laser induced fluorescence (LIF) detection is described for the determination of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) formed from lipid peroxidation in rat hepatocytes. Carbonyl compounds were fluorescently labelled by incubating the hepatocyte samples with a tagging reagent, 4-(2-carbazoylpyrrolidin-1-yl)-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-ProCZ), at 60 degrees C for 10 min. The hydrazone derivatives were extracted with a C18 solid phase extraction (SPE) cartridge and separated on a reversed-phase HPLC column. The detection limit was 2.5 fmol or 0.5 nM (5 microL injection) of HNE in the cell homogenate. Method precision (C.V.) was 5% at the 5 nM level. The method has been used to determine free HNE in rat hepatocyte samples treated with several pro-oxidant toxins. A significant HNE increase (from 4 to 27.6 pmol/10(6) cells) was observed with the samples treated by allyl alcohol. The results were in accordance with those for malondialdehyde formation as measured by a thiobarbituric acid (TBA) assay.

Abstract
Modern separation and identification methods enable detailed insight in lipid peroxidation (LPO) processes. The following deductions can be made: (1) Cell injury activates enzymes: lipoxygenases generate lipid hydroperoxides (LOOHs), proteases liberate Fe ions--these two processes are prerequisites to produce radicals. (2) Radicals attack any activated CH2-group of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) with about a similar probability. Since linoleic acid (LA) is the most abundant PUFA in mammals, its LPO products dominate. (3) LOOHs are easily reduced in biological surroundings to corresponding hydroxy acids (LOHs). LOHs derived from LA, hydroxyoctadecadienoic acids (HODEs), surmount other markers of LPO. HODEs are of high physiological relevance. (4) In some diseases characterized by inflammation or cell injury HODEs are present in low density lipoproteins (LDL) at 10-100 higher concentration, compared to LDL from healthy individuals.

Abstract
High-resolution gas chromatography (HRGC) with electron-capture detection (ECD), nitrogen-phosphorus detection (NPD), flame ionization detection (FID) or with mass spectrometry-selected ion monitoring (MS-SIM) was used in the analysis of volatile carbonyl compounds. Eighteen carbonyl compounds that are typically produced during lipid peroxidation were derivatized quantitatively with pentafluorophenylhydrazine (PFPH) at room temperature, to afford their corresponding water-insoluble hydrazones. These derivatives were extracted into non-polar phases by means of either liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) (hexane) or solid-phase extraction (SPE) on 3 ml C18 octadecyl-bonded phase cartridges. Detection limits of 10(-14) and 10(-12) mol/ml per aldehyde were achieved with the ECD and MS-SIM systems, respectively. The effects of extraction conditions on sensitivity and recovery were determined by performing parallel HRGC-ECD and HRGC-MS-SIM analyses of pentafluorophenylhydrazones of the eighteen compounds under study. Recoveries of 51.4-78.9 +/- 1.2-4.5 and 80.9-98.3 +/- 1.0-3.5% were obtained with LLE and SPE, respectively. The method was applied to the analysis of the volatile carbonyl compounds in various heated vegetable oils (corn, palm or sunflower) and to the analysis of volatile aldehydes in human urine.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation is initiated by cell damage. After homogenisation of porcine heart tissue in aqueous solution we observed the same lipid peroxidation products as detected after heart infarction. We used this observation to study the influence of ebselen (2-phenyl-1,2-benzoisoselenazol-3-(2H)-one) on the generation of oxidatively derived monohydroxy fatty acids and alpha-hydroxyaldehydes, typical lipid peroxidation (LPO) products. Heart tissue was homogenised before and after enzyme destruction and with addition of ebselen. The obtained LPO products were analysed by GC/MS after appropriate derivatisation and quantified by using internal standards. The amount of monohydroxy fatty acids and alpha-hydroxyaldehydes increased considerably in the porcine heart homogenates in which the enzymes were kept active. Addition of ebselen caused an additional significant increase of hydroxy fatty acids, while the increase of aldehydic compounds was less. These results confirm the glutathione peroxidase-like activity of ebselen but demonstrate also that it does not prevent lipid peroxidation.

Abstract
One of the major processes that occur as a result of radical-induced oxidative stress is lipid peroxidation (LPO). Degradation of lipid peroxides results in various products, including a variety of carbonyl compounds. In the present study eight different lipid degradation products, i.e., formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acetone, propanal, butanal, pentanal, hexanal and malondialdehyde were identified and measured simultaneously and quantitatively in rat urine after derivatization with O-(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorbenzyl)hydroxylamine hydrochloride, extraction with heptane and using gas chromatography-electron-capture detection (GC-ECD). The identity of the respective oximes in urine was confirmed by gas chromatography-negative ion chemical ionization mass spectrometry (GC-NCI-MS). Simultaneously measured standard curves were linear for all oxime-products and the detection limits were between 39.0 +/- 5.3 (n=9) and 500 +/- 23 (n=9) fmol per microl injected sample. Recoveries of all products from urine or water were 73.0 +/- 5.2% and higher. In urine of CCl4-treated rats an increase in all eight lipid degradation products in urine was found 24 h following exposure. ACON showed the most distinct increase, followed by PROPA, BUTA and MDA. It is concluded that the rapid, selective and sensitive analytical method based on GC-ECD presented here is well suited for routine measurement of eight different lipid degradation products. These products appear to be useful as non-invasive biomarkers for in vivo oxidative stress induced in rats by CCl4.

Abstract
9-Hydroxy-10,12-octadecadienoic acid (9-HODE) and 13-hydroxy-9,11-octadecadienoic acid (13-HODE) are accumulated in the low density lipoproteins of patients suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for a factor of 20-50 compared to healthy individuals of the same age. Both acids, derived by lipid peroxidation of linoleic acid, induce the release of interleukin 1 beta. The latter induces bone degression. The genesis of 9- and 13-HODE seems therefore to be an important factor in the development and progression of rheuma; in addition 9-HODE was reported to be a stimulus of inflammation, comparable to leukotrienes.

Abstract
An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), induces renal proximal tubular necrosis associated with lipid peroxidation and oxidative DNA damage that finally leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma in rodents. In the present study, we investigated what kinds of C(2-12) saturated and unsaturated aldehydes and C(7-12) acyloins, metabolites of saturated aldehydes, are produced in the kidney and liver within 24 h after single i.p. administration of 15 mg Fe/kg of Fe-NTA, or after repeated (1 or 3 wk) i.p. administration of 5-10 mg Fe/kg of Fe-NTA. Amounts of twenty one aldehydes and five acyloins were determined by capillary column gas chromatography-negative-ion chemical ionization mass spectrometry with ammonia as reagent gas. Most of the aldehydes and all the acyloins measured revealed a significant dose-dependent increase 1 to 3 h after single administration in the kidney, among which 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) showed the highest increase (27.3-fold) and malondialdehyde (MDA) was the most abundant aldehyde (2.40 nmol/100 mg wet tissue). In the liver, however, the increase in aldehydes and acyloins was less prominent. After repeated administration of Fe-NTA, only 9 aldehydes (ethanal; furfural; trans,trans-2,4-heptadienal; nonanal; trans-2,cis-6-nonadienal; HNE; decanal; trans-4,cis-4-decenal; MDA) and 4 acyloins (3-hydroxyheptan-2-one; 3-hydroxyoctan-2-one; 3-hydroxynonan-2-one; 3-hydroxydodecan-2-one) showed a significant increase. Immunohistochemistry further demonstrated an increased amount of HNE-modified and MDA-modified proteins in the renal proximal tubules after repeated Fe-NTA administration. Some of the aldehydes measured such as HNE and MDA are reportedly cytotoxic, genotoxic and mutagenic. Accumulation of these aldehydes may play a role in this renal carcinogenesis model.

Abstract
A new interface coupled to a mass spectrometer was developed for the direct analysis of volatile organic compounds from small volumes of aqueous samples, including blood or tissue homogenates (St-Germain et al. 1995, Anal. Chem. 67:4536-4541). The greatest advantages of our system are minimal sample treatment, an instantaneous response time coupled with detection limits in the range of < 1 ppb for most compounds. For the analysis of low-molecular weight aldehydes, such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, propanal, and hexanal, lower detection limits were obtained when samples were converted to methoxime derivatives prior to injection. The detection limit for hexanal in water or Krebs-Ringer solution was 0.01 microM (10 pmol injected). The reproducibility of replicate injections was 4.4%. The usefulness of our system was illustrated by measuring aldehyde accumulation in peroxidized solutions of polyunsaturated fatty acids and rat tissue homogenates. Data confirmed that peroxidation of omega-3 fatty acids produces propanal, whereas omega-6 fatty acids form hexanal. Peroxidation of heart and brain homogenates formed predominantly propanal. However, the recovery of hexanal after sample treatment with methoxylamine depended on the derivatization time and temperature, suggesting that this aldehyde may form Schiff base linkages. These results show that spray extraction coupled to mass spectrometry provides a quick (< 1 min), clean and reproducible way to detect aldehydes produced from lipid peroxidation in aqueous samples.

Abstract
Various chronic disease processes are characterized by progressive accumulation of connective tissue under-going fibrotic degeneration. Evidence of oxidative reactions is often associated with fibrogenesis occurring in liver, lung, arteries, and nervous system. Moreover, an increasing bulk of experimental and clinical data supports a contributory role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of this kind of disease. Indeed, many etiological agents of fibrogenesis stimulate free radical reactions either directly or through inflammatory stimuli. Free radicals, as well as products of their reaction with biomolecules, appear to modulate the activity of the two cellular types mainly involved in the process, namely phagocytes and extracellular matrix-producing cells. Lipid peroxidation and certain lipid peroxidation products induce genetic overexpression of fibrogenic cytokines, the key molecules in the pathomechanisms of fibrosis, as well as increased transcription and synthesis of collagen. Both these events can be downregulated, at least in experimental models, by the use of antioxidants. The effect of oxidative stress on cytokine gene expression appears to be an important mechanism by which it promotes connective tissue deposition.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation (LPO) of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) is suspected to be involved in the generation of chronic diseases. A model reaction for LPO is the air oxidation of PUFAs initiated by Fe2+ and ascorbic acid. In the course of such model reactions glycolaldehyde (GLA) was detected as main aldehydic product. Since it is difficult to explain the generat on of GLA by oxidation of PUFAs, it was suspected that GLA might be derived by oxidation of ascorbic acid. This assumption was verified by treatment of ascorbic acid with Fe2+. Produced aldehydic compounds were trapped by addition of pentafluorobenzylhydroxylamine hydrochloride (PFBHA-HCl), trimethylsilylated and finally identified by gas chromatography/mass spectronetry (GC/MS). Oxidation of ascorbic acid with O2 in presence of iron ions produced not only glycolaldehyde (GLA), but also glyceraldehyde (GA), dihydroxyacetone (DA) and formaldehyde. Glyoxal (GO) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were detected as trace compounds. The yield of the aldehydic compounds was increased by addition of lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH) or H2O2. The buffer influenced the reaction considerably: Iron ions react with Tris buffer by producing dihydroxyacetone (DA). Since ascorbic acid is present in biological systems and Fe2+ ions are obviously generated by cell damaging processes, the production of GLA and other aldehydic components might add to the damaging effects of LPO. Glucose suffers also oxidation to short-chain aldehydic compounds in aqueous solution, but this reaction requires addition of equimolar amounts of Fe2+ together with equimolar amounts of H2O2 or 13-hydroperoxy -9-cis-11-trans-octadecadienoic acid (13-HPODE). Therefore this reaction, also influenced by the buffer system, seems to be not of biological relevance.

Abstract
Infarcted porcine heart tissue and surrounding tissue were investigated for the content of plasmalogens and oxidatively derived corresponding alpha-hydroxyaldehydes as well as for products of lipid peroxidation, e.g. malondialdehyde, glyoxal, 2-hydroxyheptanal and oxygenated fatty acids. Oxidation products of unsaturated fatty acids and plasmalogens were accumulated in infarcted tissue compared to the surrounding one. Their amounts increased with time of ischemia. In addition leukotoxins (9, 10-epoxy-12-octadecenoic acid and 12,13-epoxy-9-octadecenoic acid) as well as other epoxides of unsaturated fatty acids were identified. These compounds are absent in healthy heart tissue. Some of the monohydroxy fatty acids, found in comparable high yield, can not be derived from LPO processes. They are obviously generated from epoxides. Their distribution pattern indicates that they originate by an enzymic rather than by an autocatalytic process. We assume that the enzymes are activated by cell injury due to infarction. Linoleic acid seems to be an as equally well-suited substrate for enzymic attack as arachidonic acid.

Abstract
The kinetics of the autoxidation reaction of LDL and HDL with Fe2+/ascorbate was investigated. Aldehydes derived from plasmalogens were determined by conversion to 2-alkyl-1,3-dithiolanes. Their oxidation products, 2-hydroxy-aldehydes, were trapped by reaction with pentafluorobenzylhydroxylamine. After derivatisation, the pentafluorobenzyloximes could be separated from other compounds by thin-layer chromatograpy. They were detected by gas chromatography applying an electron capture detector. LDL plasmalogens are oxidized nearly completely after 180 min while HDL plasmalogens suffer oxidation only to 5%. Oxidation of linoleic and arachidonic acid was investigated by simultaneous determination of 2-hydroxyheptanal.

Abstract
Advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs) have been identified to be present on both the apolipoprotein and lipid components of low density lipoprotein (LDL) and to act to prevent its recognition and uptake by high affinity, tissue LDL receptors. Lipid-linked AGEs form readily in vitro by the covalent addition of glucose to the amine-containing head groups of phospholipids. This process is accompanied by oxidation of the unsaturated fatty acid side chains and occurs in the absence of exogenously added transition metals or free radical generating systems, suggesting that AGE formation may contribute significantly to lipid oxidation in vivo. To assess more precisely the chemical basis of AGE-induced oxidative modification, we performed gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis of the lipid products which form over time during LDL-advanced glycosylation in vitro. Negative ion chemical ionization mass spectroscopy of two major compounds that were identified were consistent with the structures of the fatty acid oxidation products 4-hydroxyhexenal and 4-hydroxynonenal. These data support the concept that AGE formation in close proximity to unsaturated fatty acyl groups leads to lipid oxidation and provide additional evidence that advanced glycosylation is an important pathogenic modification of the LDL particle in vivo.

Abstract
Reducing sugars such as glucose react non-enzymatically with the amino groups of proteins and lipids to initiate a chemical modification pathway known as advanced glycosylation. Recent progress in our understanding of this process has affirmed the hypothesis that advanced glycosylation endproducts (AGEs) play an important role in the evolution of both diabetic and non-diabetic vascular disease. Utilizing newly developed AGE-specific ELISA techniques, AGEs have been identified to be present on a variety of vascular wall, lipoprotein, and lipid constituents. Vascular wall AGEs contribute to vascular pathology by acting to increase vascular permeability, enhance subintimal protein and lipoprotein deposition, and inactivate the endothelium-derived relaxing factor, nitric oxide. Lipid-linked AGEs also have been shown to initiate oxidative modification, thus promoting the formation of oxidized low-density lipoprotein. AGE-specific ELISA analysis has demonstrated a significantly increased level of AGE-modified LDL in the plasma of diabetic patients when compared to normal controls. Furthermore, LDL which has been modified by advanced glycosylation exhibits markedly impaired clearance kinetics in vivo. Thus, AGE-modification impairs LDL-receptor-mediated clearance mechanisms and contributes to elevated LDL levels in patients with diabetes. This concept has been substantiated recently by the clinical observation that administration of the advanced glycosylation inhibitor aminoguanidine to diabetic patients significantly decreases circulating LDL levels.

Abstract
Arachidonic acid was oxidized by iron ascorbate. Samples were withdrawn in time intervals. The aldehydic oxidation products were trapped by preparation of pentafluorbenzyloximes. Their trimethylsilylated derivatives were subjected to analysis by GC/MS. The main aldehydic lipid peroxidation product was found to be the well-known 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), but 2-hydroxy heptanal (HH) -- a previously unknown lipid peroxidation product of arachidonic acid -- was detected to be nearly equally abundant. Malondialdehyde (MDA), glyoxal and 2-hydroxy-4-decenal (HDE) were detected to be produced in up to 100 times lower amounts compared to HNE. The amounts of aldehydes increased steadily with time. In addition, n-l-hydroxy-n-oxo acids were detected. Similar aldehydes were obtained by iron ascorbate-induced oxidation of hydroxy acids derived by NaBH4-reduction of 13-hydroperoxy-9-cis-11-trans-octadecadienoic acid. Since this and analogous hydroxy acids (LOHs) are the main biological degradation products of hydroperoxides of unsaturated acids (LOOHs) their further peroxidation seems to be a main source of toxic aldehydes.

Abstract
An H2O2-resistant variant (OC14) of the HA1 Chinese hamster fibroblast cell line, which demonstrates cross resistance to 95% O2 and a 2-fold increase in total glutathione content, was utilized to investigate mechanisms responsible for cellular resistance to H2O2- and O2-toxicity. OC14 and HA1 cells were pretreated with buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) to deplete total cellular glutathione. Following BSO pretreatment, cells were either placed in 250 microM BSO to maintain the glutathione depleted condition and challenged with 95% O2, or challenged with hydrogen peroxide in the absence of BSO. Total glutathione and the activities of CuZn superoxide dismutase, Mn superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and glutathione transferase were evaluated immediately following the BSO pretreatment as well as following 39 to 42 hr of exposure to 250 microM BSO. BSO treatment did not cause significant decreases in any cellular antioxidant tested, except total glutathione. Glutathione depletion resulted in significant (P < 0.05) sensitization to O2-toxicity and H2O2-toxicity in both cell lines at every time point tested. However, glutathione depletion did not completely abolish the resistance to either O2- or H2O2-toxicity demonstrated by OC14 cells, relative to HA1 cells. Also, glutathione depletion did not effect the ability of OC14 cells to metabolize extracellular H2O2. These data indicate that glutathione dependent processes significantly contribute to cellular resistance to acute H2O2- and O2-toxicity, but are not the only determinants of resistance in cell lines. The contribution of aldehydes formed by lipid peroxidation in mechanisms involved with the sensitization to O2-toxicity in glutathione depleted cells was tested by measuring the lipid peroxidation byproduct, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4HNE), bound in Schiff-base linkages or in its free form in cell homogenates at 49 hr of 95% O2-exposure. No significant increase in 4HNE was detected in glutathione depleted cells relative to glutathione competent cells, indicating that glutathione depletion does not sensitize these cells to O2-toxicity by altering the intracellular accumulation of free or Schiff-base bound 4HNE.

Abstract
Aldehydic lipid peroxidation products can be detected after transformation to pentafluorobenzyloxime derivatives by GC-MS screening using characteristic ion traces. Thus the rather unstable unsaturated hydroxyaldehyde, 6-hydroxy-2,4-undecadienal, was identified as autoxidation product of linoleic acid. Its structure was unambiguously confirmed by comparison with an authentic sample. After Fe(2+)-ascorbate induced lipid peroxidation of oleic acid several 4-hydroxy-2-alkenals and 4-hydroxyalkanals were detected. These represent previously unknown secondary oxidation products of lipid peroxidation of oleic acid. Nevertheless oleic acid proved about 1000 times more stable against peroxidation than linoleic or higher unsaturated acids.

Abstract
Pentafluorbenzyloxime derivatization allows fast, gentle and unambiguous identification of alpha-hydroxyaldehydic lipid peroxidation products via GC/MS in biological material. Even 1.5 g of a bovine liver sample is sufficient to detect short-chain 2-hydroxyalkanales resulting from cleavage reactions of dioxygenated fatty acids. Quantification is achieved after secondary derivatization with N-methyl-N-t-butyldimethylsilyltrifluoracetamide (M-t-BSTFA) by mass spectrometry using characteristic ion traces of the derivatives. In addition, the corresponding (n-1)-hydroxy-n-oxo acids, previously unknown in biological material, could be detected.

Abstract
1. Masked long-chain alpha-hydroxyaldehydes were trapped in all subcellular fractions of bovine liver by application of pentafluorbenzyloxime derivatization [van Kuijk, Thomas, Stephens and Dratz (1986) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 139, 144-149] and quantified via GLC/MS using characteristic ion traces. 2. The chain-length profile of long-chain 2-hydroxyalkanales clearly indicates their relationship to plasmalogens as precursor molecules. 3. The previously postulated existence of alpha-acyloxyplasmalogens as precursor molecules of masked long-chain alpha-hydroxyaldehydes in bovine tissue lipids [Lutz and Spiteller (1991) Liebigs Ann. Chem. 1991, 563-567] was excluded. 4. The constant oxidation rate of plasmalogens in all subcellular fractions provides conclusive evidence for a non-enzymic plasmalogen epoxidation process (probably via hydroperoxy radicals). 5. The high reactivity of alpha-hydroxyaldehydes sheds some doubt on the postulation that plasmalogens protect mammalian cells against oxidative stress as postulated previously [Morand, Zoeller and Raetz (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 11590-11596; Morand, Zoeller and Raetz (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 11597-11606].

Abstract
The content of plasmalogens in lipoproteins--very low density lipoprotein (VLDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL)--in human serum was determined and compared with that after oxidation of the lipoproteins. Similarly, the content of alpha-hydroxyaldehydes produced from plasmalogens via their epoxids during lipidperoxidation (LPO) was studied. Incubation with Fe+ +/ascorbate results in a dramatic decrease in plasmalogens that correlates with an appropriate increase in alpha-hydroxyaldehydes. VLDL and LDL plasmalogens were oxidized to a greater extend (99% decrease) compared to HDL plasmalogens (35%). This finding is discussed with respect to atherogenesis and the recently postulated protective qualities of plasmalogens.

Abstract
Canine ceroid-lipofuscinosis (CCL) is a model of the juvenile type of Batten disease in human patients. Abnormalities have been reported previously in 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) levels in English setters with CCL. The purpose of this study was to examine the sources of HNE in neutrophil membranes and plasma of CCL dogs. The fatty acid composition of neutrophil phospholipids, i.e., phosphatidyl ethanolamine and phosphatidyl serine, was determined by gas-liquid-chromatography (GLC) since some polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are precursors of HNE. The copper catalyzed peroxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) was examined to determine the susceptibility of LDL from CCL dogs to peroxidation. The results indicated that a number of PUFA precursors of HNE decreased in affected an carrier neutrophil phospholipids, indicating that this source of HNE may be disease specific. The Cu++ catalyzed formation of HNE from LDL demonstrated that carrier and normal LDL produced large amounts of HNE, while LDL from affected dogs required much higher concentrations of Cu++ for maximal HNE production. These results provide additional support for the role of HNE in the pathogenetic events in NCL and support the view that lipid peroxidation may be an important contributor to the complex pathogenesis of the NCL.

Abstract
The detection of aldehydes has become an important measure of lipid oxidation in biological milieu. Aldehyde 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazones are easily prepared and readily purified by HPLC and/or TLC and have proven useful for the detection of aldehydes. The lower limit of detection for dinitrophenylhydrazones was significantly reduced by using gas chromatography-mass spectrometric (GC-MS) techniques. Individual dinitrophenylhydrazones were readily separated by GC and detected by both positive and negative ion MS. The two major ions in negative ion spectra were the 182 m/z fragment ion and the molecular ion. Positive ion spectra showed strong ions corresponding to the protonated molecular ion and a protonated iminium ion. The greatest sensitivity was obtained with negative ion detection (10 pg per injection). However, more structural information was obtained from analysis of the positive ion spectra. Dinitrophenylhydrazones of hydroxyaldehydes, like 4-hydroxynonenal, were analyzed after converting the dinitrophenylhydrazones into trimethylsiloxylethers. GC-MS with negative ion detection was used to identify and quantitate the release of 4-hydroxynonenal by alveolar macrophages exposed to nitrogen dioxide.

Abstract
4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is a major aldehydic product formed by peroxidation of omega 6-unsaturated fatty acids and is regarded as a specific marker of lipid peroxidation. In this paper we demonstrate that there is a physiological steady-state concentration of HNE in human venous blood plasma. For the quantitative determination of HNE a modified version of an existing, but tedious and time-consuming HPLC method was developed. The extraction of aldehydic hydrazones from plasma was performed using an Extrelut column and the separation step by thin-layer chromatography was replaced by column chromatography on silica gel. The concentration of HNE in human blood plasma was in the same range as the concentration that was found to inhibit the proliferation of cells of the peripheral tissues, i.e., endothelial cells and fibroblasts in vitro. In an experiment with reduced peripheral blood flow a temporary significant increase of HNE was observed during reperfusion. It was concluded that lipid peroxidation occurs in peripheral tissues of humans following temporary congestion of venous blood flow.

Abstract
Recently, we deduced a mechanism for lipid peroxidation of linoleic acid [1]. This mechanism was now applied to predict the occurrence of previously unknown lipid peroxidation products of linolenic acid. The proposed structures of peroxidation products allowed to search for these predicted compounds in reaction mixtures with the aid of 'ion trace' by mass spectrometry. Thus, a great number of previously unknown lipid peroxidation products was detected. It is assumed that these compounds also occur--at least as intermediates--in lipid peroxidation processes in mammalian tissue.

Abstract
Besides the well known products of lipid peroxidation, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, saturated and unsaturated aldehydes, 2-hydroxy-heptanal was found to be a major aldehydic product of lipid peroxidation (LPO) of n-6 fatty acids (linoleic acid 18:2, arachidonic acid 20:4). 2-Hydroxyhexanal is produced also, but only in much lower yield. 2-Hydroxyalkanales with 8,9,10 and 11 C-atoms are derived from hydroperoxides of oleic acid. An oxidation product of all unsaturated fatty acids is glyoxal. Analyses were performed after aldehyde specific derivatization reactions by GC-MS.

Abstract
It is not yet established whether oxidative stress is a major cause of cell death or simply a consequence of an unknown pathogenetic factor. Concerning chronic diseases, as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease are assumed to be, it is possible that a gradual impairment of cellular defense mechanisms leads to cell damage because of toxic substances being increasingly formed during normal cellular metabolism. This point of view brings into consideration the possibility that, besides exogenous factors, the pathogenetic process of neurodegeration is triggered by endogenous mechanisms, either by an endogenous toxin or by inherited metabolic disorders, which become progressively more evident with aging. In the following review, we focus on the oxidative stress theory of neurodegeneration, on excitotoxin-induced cell damage and on impairment of mitochondrial function as three major noxae being the most likely causes of cell death either independently or in connection with each other. First, having discussed clinical, pathophysiological, pathological and biochemical features of movement and cognitive disorders, we discuss the common features of these biochemical theories of neurodegeneration separately. Second, we attempt to evaluate possible biochemical links between them and third, we discuss experimental findings that confirm or rule out the involvement of any of these theories in neurodegeneration. Finally, we report some therapeutic strategies evolved from each of these theories.

Abstract
A modified method was developed to measure nM levels of a range of n-alkanals and hydroxyalkenals in biological samples such as blood plasma and tissue homogenates and also in Folch lipid extracts of these samples. Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and desferrioxamine (Desferal) were added to samples to prevent artifactual peroxidation. Aldehydes were reacted with 1,3-cyclohexanedione (CHD), cleaned up by solid-phase extraction on a Sep-Pak C18 cartridge and the fluorescent decahydroacridine derivatives resolved by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with gradient elution. A wider range of aldehydes was detected in lipid extracts of plasma and liver homogenate compared to whole (unextracted) samples. Human plasma contained nM levels of acetaldehyde, propanal, butanal, pentanal, hexanal, and heptanal. 4-Hydroxynonenal (0.93 nmol/g) and alkanals with two to six carbons (up to 7.36 nmol/g) were detected in rat liver. Recovery of aldehydes added to whole plasma or to lipid extracts of plasma was dependent on carbon chain length, varying from 95% for acetaldehyde to 8% for decanal. Recovery from biological samples was significantly less than that of standards taken through the Sep-Pak clean-up procedure, suggesting that aldehydes can bind to plasma protein and lipid components.

Abstract
A method is presented for the determination of 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) in tissue homogenates following in vitro lipid peroxidation induced by iron (Fe++). HNE is measured as the pentafluorobenzyl oxime derivative using liquid chromatography thermospray mass spectrometry. In vitro metabolism of HNE via the glutathione/glutathione-S-transferase pathway was inhibited using iodoacetic and iodobenzoic acids. The assay has been used as an indicator of the peroxidizability of tissue samples from animals both adequate in and depleted of alpha-tocopherol. The concentrations of HNE produced in tissues taken from animals depleted of alpha-tocopherol were found to be up to 8 times higher than those taken from animals supplemented with alpha-tocopherol.

Abstract
4-Hydroxy-trans-2-nonenal (HNE) is a highly reactive product of lipid peroxidation originating from the break-down of phospholipid-bound polyunsaturated fatty acids of cellular membranes. Despite its biological relevance, this aldehyde is only occasionally determined due to the complexity of previously described procedures. Here we present a simple and very sensitive method for the detection of HNE in biological samples. The method is based on the measurement of the 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone (DNPH) of the aldehyde by electrochemical detection after separation by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The greater sensitivity of this procedure as compared to the ultraviolet detection method commonly employed to measure DNPH derivatives of aldehydes after HPLC will allow the detection of HNE below the pmol level. The detection of HNE is highly reproducible even in normal tissues and cells. Increased amounts of HNE were detected in the livers of animals intoxicated with prooxidant agents such as carbon tetrachloride, bromotrichloromethane or bromobenzene. An exponential increase in HNE (and in malondialdehyde) was measured in peroxidizing liver microsomes (in the NADPH/Fe-dependent system). The method is also suitable for the study of very small samples, since HNE could be detected in approximately 1 million cultured cells (polyoma virus-transformed baby hamster kidney fibroblasts); the level rose after exposure of the cells to a Fe3+/ADP prooxidant system.
