Decreased malondialdehyde levels in fish (Astyanax altiparanae) exposed to diesel: Evidence of metabolism by aldehyde dehydrogenase in the liver and excretion in water. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2020; 190:110107. [PMID: 31901814 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2019.110107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2019] [Revised: 12/07/2019] [Accepted: 12/18/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Increased malondialdehyde (MDA) levels are commonly considered an indicator of lipid peroxidation derived from oxidative stress insults promoted by exposure of fish to pollutants. However, a decrease in MDA levels after xenobiotic exposure has been also reported, an effect that is mostly attributed to enhanced antioxidant defenses. In this study, we assessed whether pollutant-mediated MDA decrease would be associated with antioxidant enhancement or with its metabolism by aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) in the liver and gills of lambari (Astyanax altiparanae) exposed to diesel oil (0.001, 0.01, and 0.1 mL/L). MDA levels were decreased in the liver of lambari exposed to diesel. The activities of the antioxidant enzymes, catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx), were unchanged in the liver, while that of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) was decreased. In contrast, levels of total glutathione (tGSH) and the activity of glutathione S-transferase (GST) were increased in the liver, which partly support antioxidant protection against lipid peroxidation. More importantly, ALDH activity increased in a concentration-dependent manner, being negatively correlated with MDA levels, indicating MDA metabolism by ALDH. In the gills, diesel exposure increased MDA and lipid hydroperoxide levels, and promoted increases in antioxidant defenses, indicating oxidative stress. Curiously, ALDH activity was undetectable in the gills, supporting the possibility of direct MDA excretion in the water by the gills. Analyses of MDA in the water revealed increased levels of MDA in the aquaria in which the fish were exposed to diesel, compared to control aquaria. A second experiment was carried out in which the fish were intraperitoneally injected with MDA (10 mg/kg) and analyzed after 1, 6, and 12 h. MDA injection caused a time-dependent decrease in hepatic MDA levels, did not alter ALDH, CAT, GPx, and GST activities, and decreased G6PDH activity and tGSH levels. In the gills, MDA injection caused a slight increase in MDA levels after 1 h, but did not alter GPx, G6PDH, and GST activities. MDA injection also enhanced CAT activity and tGSH levels in the gills. MDA concentration in water increased progressively after 1, 6, and 12 h, supporting the hypothesis of direct MDA excretion as an alternative route for MDA elimination in fish. Our results suggest that the decreased MDA levels after exposure of lambari to diesel oil pollutant probably reflects an association between enhanced antioxidant protection, MDA metabolism, and MDA excretion in water.

Abstract
The progressive contamination of food products by mycotoxins such as zearalenone (ZEN) has prompted the search for specific substances that can act as protectors against an accumulation of these toxins. This paper discusses the effect of selenium ions and 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) as non-organic and organic compounds that preserve human lymphoblastic cells U-937 under ZEN stressogenic conditions. Based on measurements of cell viability and a DAPI test, concentrations of ZEN at 30 μmol/l, Se at 2.5 μmol/l and EBR at 0.005 μmol/l were selected. The addition of both protectors resulted in an increase in the viability of ZEN-treated cells by about 16%. This effect was connected with a decrease in lipid peroxidation (a decrease in the malonyldialdehyde content) and the generation of reactive oxygen species, which were determined by a cellular ROS/superoxide detection assay and the SOD activity. The Se protection was observed as the blocking of the all excess ROS, while the EBR action was mainly concentrated on something other than the superoxide radical itself. The experiments on the model lipid membranes that mimic the environment of U-937 cells confirmed the affect of ZEN on the structure and physicochemical properties of human membranes. Although the presence of both Se and EBR reduced the effect of ZEN by blocking its interaction with a membrane, the action of Se was more evident.

Abstract
RATIONALE The traditional methods for analysis of malonaldehyde (MDA), such as the thiobarbituric acid (TBA) assay, require strong acidity at high temperature for derivatization and lack specificity in analysis. Stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) coupled with thermal desorption-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (TD-GC/MS) with in situ derivatization using pentafluorophenylhydrazine (PFPH) under mild conditions is an emerging technique for MDA analysis. METHODS MDA in meat was derivatized with PFPH at pH ~4 for 1 h at room temperature, forming a relative stable derivative of MDA-PFPH. The derivative of MDA-PFPH was simultaneously extracted using SBSE. Then, MDA-PFPH was thermally released and quantitatively analyzed by GC/MS in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode. RESULTS The method of SBSE-TD-GC/MS for MDA analysis with in situ derivatization was optimized and validated with good linearity, specificity and limit of detection/quantification (LOD/LOQ). The method was successfully applied for analysis of MDA in raw and cooked meat (pork). CONCLUSIONS The SBSE-TD-GC/MS method was suitable to monitor and analyze MDA in meat samples at trace levels. The simple, sensitive and solvent-less method with moderated in situ derivatization can be applied for analysis of MDA in a wide variety of foods and biological samples.

Abstract
4-Hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) has been prepared from the corresponding dimethylacetal (HNE-DMA), in turn synthesized by a conventional approach with a few modifications of the experimental protocol and some improvements in the purification of the final product. In order to exploit the sensitivity of gas-chromatography with electron capture detector (GC-ECD) in the analysis of HNE derivatives, reaction of HNE with 2,4,6-trichlophenylhydrazine (TCPH) and 3,5-dichloro-phenylhydrazine (DCPH) was tested. Reaction with TCPH afforded a mixture of products, whereas with DCPH a single major product was formed that was prepared on a millimolar scale and purified. (1)H-NMR analysis established that the derivative of HNE with DCPH is HNE 3,6-dichloro-phenylhydrazone, that can be used as standard for GC-ECD analysis.

Abstract
The purpose of this review is to summarize concerns regarding the formation and quantification of malonaldehyde as a product of lipid peroxidation in muscle tissues. The spectrophotometric thiobarbituric acid (TBA) method is the most frequently used test for malonaldehyde quantification, especially in muscle tissues, as a marker of lipid peroxidation. However, the TBA method has been criticized as lacking specificity and adequate sensitivity towards malonaldehyde. High performance liquid and gas chromatographic methods offer better specificity and sensitivity for malonaldehyde detection. The TBA method, however, may be preferred over the chromatographic method because of its simplicity, especially when a large number of samples need to be analyzed in a short period of time on a daily basis. In addition, the TBA method has been correlated with other objective and subjective methods of measuring lipid peroxidation and its specificity can be improved with the use of a solid phase extraction C(18) cartridge.

Abstract
Lyme borreliosis (LB) is one of the most common tick-borne diseases in the northern hemisphere. It is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by the spirochaete Borrelia burgdorferi. In its early stages, pathological skin lesions, namely erythema chronicum migrans, appear. The lesions, usually localised at the site of the bite, may become visible from a few weeks up to 3 months after the infection. Predominant clinical symptoms of the disease also involve joint malfunctions and neurological or cardiac disorders. Lyme disease, in all its stages, may be successfully treated with antibiotics. The best results, however, are obtained in its early stages. In order to diagnose the disease, numerous medical or laboratory techniques have been developed. They are applied to confirm the presence of intact spirochaetes or spirochaete components such as DNA or proteins in tick vectors, reservoir hosts or patients. The methods used for the determination of LB biomarkers have also been reviewed. These biomarkers are formed during the lipid peroxidation process. The formation of peroxidation products generated by human organisms is directly associated with oxidative stress. Apart from aldehydes (malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal), many other unsaturated components such as isoprostenes and neuroprostane are obtained. The fast determination of these compounds in encephalic fluid, urine or plasma, especially in early stages of the disease, enables its treatment. Various analytical techniques which allow the determination of the aforementioned biomarkers have been reported. These include spectrophotometry as well as liquid and gas chromatography. The analytical procedure also requires the application of a derivatization step by the use of selected reagents.

Abstract
Oxidatively modified low-density lipoproteins (Ox-LDL) and complement anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a are colocalized in atherosclerotic lesions. Anaphylatoxin C3a also binds and breaks bacterial lipid membranes and phosphatidylcholine liposomes. The role of oxidized lipid adducts in C3a binding to Ox-LDL and apoptotic cells was investigated. Recombinant human C3a bound specifically to low-density lipoprotein and bovine serum albumin modified with malondialdehyde (MDA) and malondialdehyde acetaldehyde (MAA) in chemiluminescence immunoassays. No binding was observed to native proteins, LDL oxidized with copper ions (CuOx-LDL), or phosphocholine. C3a binding to MAA-LDL was inhibited by two monoclonal antibodies specific for MAA-LDL. On agarose gel electrophoresis, C3a comigrated with MDA-LDL and MAA-LDL, but not with native LDL or CuOx-LDL. C3a bound to apoptotic cells in flow cytometry. C3a opsonized MAA-LDL and was taken up by J774A.1 macrophages in immunofluorescence analysis. Complement-activated human serum samples (n=30) showed increased C3a binding to MAA-LDL (P<0.001) and MDA-LDL (P<0.001) compared to nonactivated samples. The amount of C3a bound to MAA-LDL was associated with total complement activity, C3a desArg concentration, and IgG antibody levels to MAA-LDL. Proteins containing MDA adducts or MAA adducts may bind C3a in vivo and contribute to inflammatory processes involving activation of the complement system in atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Aldehydes are capable of inducing protein cross-linkage. An increase in aldehydes has been found in Alzheimer's disease. Formaldehyde and methylglyoxal are produced via deamination of, respectively, methylamine and aminoacetone catalyzed by semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO, EC 1.4.3.6. The enzyme is located on the outer surface of the vasculature, where amyloidosis is often initiated. A high SSAO level has been identified as a risk factor for vascular disorders. Serum SSAO activity has been found to be increased in Alzheimer's patients. Malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxynonenal are derived from lipid peroxidation under oxidative stress, which is also associated with Alzheimer's disease. Aldehydes may potentially play roles in beta-amyloid aggregation related to the pathology of Alzheimer's disease. In the present study, thioflavin-T fluorometry, dynamic light scattering, circular dichroism spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy were employed to reveal the effect of endogenous aldehydes on beta-amyloid at different stages, i.e. beta-sheet formation, oligomerization and fibrillogenesis. Formaldehyde, methylglyoxal and malondialdehyde and, to a lesser extent, 4-hydroxynonenal are not only capable of enhancing the rate of formation of beta-amyloid beta-sheets, oligomers and protofibrils but also of increasing the size of the aggregates. The possible relevance to Alzheimer's disease of the effects of these aldehydes on beta-amyloid deposition is discussed.

Abstract
Pervaporation has been coupled on-line to capillary electrophoresis (CE) by a flow injection manifold and the replenishment system of the CE instrument. The approach allows volatile analytes to be removed, derivatisated and injected into the capillary meanwhile the sample matrix remains in the pervaporator. Acetone and four aldehydes (namely: formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, hexenal, 2-trans-hexenal) have been simultaneously determined in slurries samples by this approach. The detection limits (LOD) ranged between 0.1 and 0.6 microg/ml, the quantification limits between 0.5 and 2.0 microg/ml and the linear dynamic ranges between the limit of quantitation and 150 microg/ml. The precision, expressed as relative standard deviation (RSD), ranged between 0.76 and 4.21% for repeatability and between 1.12 and 4.78% for within laboratory intermediary precision. The errors involved in the analysis of the target analytes--expressed as RSD for all compounds--ranged between 0.13 and 4.87%. The optimal pervaporation time and that necessary for the individual separation/detection of the target analytes are 15 and 10 min, respectively. The analysis frequency is 4 h(-1). The accuracy of the method and potential matrix effects were established by analysing spiked samples. Recoveries between 96.12 and 105.67% were obtained. The proposed method was applied to 10 samples with different solid contents (namely, such yoghurt, juice and yoghurt-juice mixtures).

Abstract
Analysis of trace levels of reactive carbonyl compounds (RCCs), including formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acrolein, malonaldehyde, glyoxal, and methyl glyoxal, is extremely difficult because they are highly reactive, water soluble, and volatile. Determination of these RCCs in trace levels is important because they are major products of lipid peroxidation, which is strongly associated with various diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer's disease, aging, and atherosclerosis. This review covers the development and application of various derivatives for RCC analysis. Among the many derivatives which have been prepared, cysteamine derivatives for formaldehyde and acetaldehyde; N-hydrazine derivatives for acrolein, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal, and malonaldeyde; and o-phenylene diamine derivatives for glyoxal and methyl glyoxal were selected for extended discussion. The application of advanced instruments, including gas chromatograph with nitrogen-phosphorus detector (GC/NPD), mass spectrometer (MS), high performance liquid chromatograph (HPLC), GC/MS, and LC/MS, to the determination of trace RCCs in various oxidized lipid samples, including fatty acids, skin lipids, beef fats, blood plasma, whole blood, and liver homogenates, is also discussed.

Abstract
Peroxidation of lipids produces low-molecular-weight carbonyl compounds, which are reactive with biological nucleophiles. The analysis of these compounds is often difficult. A multicomponent method for the determination of 11 of them in biological samples is reported. The samples are subjected to a pretreatment-derivatization procedure followed by gas chromatographic analysis with either electron-capture detection (ECD) or mass-selective detection (MSD) in the selected-ion monitoring mode. The procedure involves derivatization of the analyte with 2,4,6-trichlorophenylhydrazine, extraction with n-hexane, and separation of the derivatization products on a nonpolar gas chromatographic column. The concentration of the derivatization reagent, pH, reaction time, temperature, and presence of extraneous ions were investigated to determine the optimal derivatization conditions. Under these conditions, the method allows for the selective detection of low-molecular-weight carbonyl compounds at femtomole levels in several biological materials such as plasma, urine, and bovine serum albumin without interferences. The limits of detection were in the ranges 0.01-0.2 microM for ECD and 0.15-1.5 microM for MSD. The mean procedural recoveries obtained during the method validation were within the range 85-95% and the intra- and interassay standard deviations do not exceed 4.6 and 6.1%, respectively.

Abstract
Application of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) for detection of aldehydes in biological samples such as blood, yoghurt, and milk, is reported. Sample preparation is easy, and the presented method is both sensitive and selective. It is based on the widely used dinitrophenylhydrazine derivatization, followed by extraction with n-hexane and a simple reversed-phase HPLC separation. Detection is performed by atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) in negative ion mode, with detection limits in the low picogram range. Using MS/MS, acetone and propionaldehyde can clearly be distinguished, facilitating propionaldehyde quantitation even in the presence of high acetone levels. Quantitation by direct MS/MS is also feasible, well suited for high-throughput applications, although not as accurate as using HPLC/MS/MS.

Abstract
A previously described derivatization method using trichlorophenylhydrazine was developed for the estimation of malonaldehyde measured by gas-chromatography (GC) with electron-capture detection. The precision and reliability of the procedure are improved here by the use of methylmalonaldehyde as internal standard and by the introduction of a diverter valve at the end of the capillary column to protect the electron-capture detector, respectively. The method was applied to determine malonaldehyde content in bovine plasma samples.

Abstract
A gas chromatographic method is described for the quantification of free and total malondialdehyde (MDA) in biological materials. The procedure involves derivatization of the analyte with 2,4,6-trichlorophenylhydrazine, extraction with n-hexane, and separation of the cyclic derivatization product on a OV-5 gas chromatographic column. Concentration of the derivatization reagent, pH, reaction time, and temperature were investigated to determine the optimal derivatization conditions. Under these conditions, the method allows for the selective detection of free and total MDA at femtomole levels in several biological materials without any interferences. The procedure yields relative standard deviation values for the intra- and interassays in the range 3.3 and 3.9%, respectively, for the electron-capture and mass-selective (SIM mode) detection systems. Recoveries of MDA from spiked matrices reached 96%. The present method offers the advantage of the alternative use of either electron-capture or mass-selective detection. Furthermore it avoids overestimation of MDA since it employs mild conditions for sample processing and there is no need for preventing protein separation for the assessment of free MDA.

Abstract
Methyl malondialdehyde (Me-MDA) is suggested as an internal standard for the determination of the lipid peroxidation product, malondialdehyde (MDA). A procedure for synthesising the Me-MDA sodium salt is described in detail. The purity and identity of the synthesised Me-MDA have been confirmed using nuclear magnetic resonance and UV spectroscopy, and by micellar electrokinetic chromatography. The applicability of Me-MDA as an internal standard has been demonstrated for rat brain homogenate samples. These samples were purified solely through ultrafiltration. The preferred analytical technique was capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) with UV detection at 267 nm. The limits of detection (3 S/N) for the CZE separations of Me-MDA and MDA were 0.5 and 0.2 microM, respectively, and the total analysis time was approximately 10 min. Details of separations are also presented using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV detection at 245 nm, and gas chromatography, together with either electron capture or mass spectrometric detection. The GC separations require derivatisation of MDA and Me-MDA with pentafluorophenylhydrazine while the CZE and HPLC separations can be performed on the native molecules.

Abstract
We have used a fast, sensitive and efficient method for the analysis of volatile carbonyl compounds (saturated aliphatic and unsaturated aldehydes) based on solid-phase microextraction with on-fibre derivatisation. Pentafluorophenylhydrazine was absorbed onto a poly(dimethylsiloxane)/divinylbenzene-coated fibre and exposed to the vapours of aldehyde-containing matrices. The hydrazones formed on the fibre were desorbed into the gas chromatograph injection port and quantified by means of electron-capture detection with high sensitivity (10-90 fmol) and good reproducibility (RSD<10%). The method was applied to the headspace-sampling of volatile carbonyl compounds released during the thermally-induced degradation of sunflower oil.

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
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
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a mycotoxin produced by Aspergillus ochraceus as well as other moulds. This mycotoxin contaminates animal feed and food and is nephrotoxic for all animal species studied so far. OTA is immunosuppressive, genotoxic, teratogenic and carcinogenic. It is a structural analogue of phenylalanine and contains a chlorinated dihydroisocoumarinic moiety. Ochratoxin A inhibits protein synthesis by competition with phenylalanine in the phenylalanine-tRNA aminoacylation reaction. Recently lipid peroxidation induced by OTA has been reported, indicating that the lesions induced by this toxin could also be related to oxidative damage. An attempt to prevent its toxic effect, mainly the lipid peroxidation, has been made using aspartame (L-aspartyl-L-phenylalanine methyl ester) a structural analogue of both OTA and phenylalanine, piroxicam, a non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and superoxide dismutase+catalase (endogenous oxygen radical scavengers). Lipid peroxidation was assayed in monkey kidney cells (Vero cells) treated by increasing concentrations of OTA (5-50 microM). After 24 h incubation OTA induced lipid peroxidation in Vero cells in a concentration dependent manner, as measured by malonaldehyde (MDA) production. The MDA production, in Vero cells, was significantly increased by 50.5% from 694.1 +/- 21.0 to 1041.5 +/- 23.5 pmol/mg of protein. In the presence of superoxide dismutase (SOD)+catalase (25 micrograms/ml each) the MDA production induced by OTA was significantly decreased. At 50 microM of OTA concentration (optimal production of MDA) the MDA production decreased from 1041.5 +/- 23.5 to 827.5 +/- 21.3 pmol/mg of protein. SOD and catalase, when applied prior to the toxin, seemed to prevent lipid peroxidation more efficiently than piroxicam (at a ten-fold higher concentration than OTA) and aspartame (at equimolar concentration). These molecules also partially prevented the OTA-induced leakage of MDA in the culture medium.

Abstract
This review discusses the basic chemical reactions that affect food flavor quality. Although there are many reactions that can lead to the deterioration of quality in foods, this review focuses on lipid oxidation and how it adversely affects flavor principals. It also presents technological advances for studying the basic mechanism of lipid oxidation, for measuring its intensity, and for retaining food quality. The food commodities that provide the subject matter for this review include vegetable oils, legumes, cereal grains, eggs, beef, lamb, poultry, seafoods, and catfish. The methodologies for assessing food quality form a multidisciplinary approach that includes primarily instrumental analysis by direct gas chromatography, chemical analysis by the TBA test, and sensory analysis by quantitative descriptive determinations. The author hopes that the information presented in this review is applicable to food commodities not discussed.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation (LPO) is the oxidative deterioration of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) with the production of lipid hydroperoxides, cyclic peroxides, cyclic endoperoxides, and finally fragmentation to ketones and aldehydes (including malonaldehyde, MDA). Estimation of LPO through MDA formation measured by assaying thiobarbituric acid (TBA) reactive products remains the method of choice to study the development of oxidative stress in tissues. However, MDA estimation by TBA reactive products is non-specific and often gives erroneous results. In this report we describe a method using high-performance liquid chromatographic separation to estimate MDA, formaldehyde (FDA), acetaldehyde (ADA), acetone, and propionaldehyde (PDA), the degradation products of oxygen-derived free radicals (ODFR) and PUFA, as presumptive markers for LPO. Oxidative stress was induced in the tissue by perfusing an isolated rat heart with hydroxyl radical generating system (xanthine + xanthine oxidase + FeCl3 + EDTA). The coronary effluents were collected, derivatized with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH), and extracted with pentane. Aliquots of 25 microliters in acetonitrile were injected onto a Beckman Ultrasphere C18 (3 microns) column. The products were eluted isocratically with a mobile phase containing acetonitrile-water-acetic acid (40:60:0.1, v/v/v), measured at three different wavelengths (307, 325 and 356 nm) using a Waters M-490 multichannel UV detector and collected for gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. The peaks were identified by cochromatography with DNPH derivatives of authentic standards, peak addition, UV pattern of absorption at the three wavelengths, and by GC-MS. The retention items of MDA, FDA, ADA, acetone, and PDA were 5.3, 6.6, 10.3, 16.5, and 20.5 min, respectively. The results of our study indicated progressive increase of all five lipid metabolites as a function of the duration of ODFR perfusion. Hydroxyl radical scavengers, superoxide dismutase plus catalase, completely inhibited the formation of these lipid metabolites, demonstrating that the release of lipid metabolites from the isolated heart was indeed in response to oxidative stress. Since MDA, FDA, ADA, acetone, and PDA are the products of ODFR-PUFA interactions, this method allows proper estimation of LPO which monitors the oxidative stress developed during the reperfusion of ischemic myocardium.

Abstract
Formaldehyde (FA), acetaldehyde (ACT), malondialdehyde (MDA) and acetone (ACON) were simultaneously identified in urine, and their excretion quantitated in response to chemically induced oxidative stress. Urine samples of female Sprague-Dawley rats were collected over dry ice and derivatized with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine. The hydrazones of the four lipid metabolic products were quantitated by high-performance liquid chromatography on a Waters 10-microns mu-Bondapak C18 column. The identities of FA, ACT, MDA and ACON in urine were confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. An oxidative stress was induced by orally administering 100 micrograms/kg 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin, 75 mg/kg paraquat, 6 mg/kg endrin or 2.5 ml/kg carbon tetrachloride to rats. Urinary excretion of FA, ACT, MDA and ACON increased relative to control animals 24 h after treatment with all xenobiotics. The system has wide-spread applicability to the investigation of altered lipid metabolism in disease states and exposure to environmental pollutants.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation often occurs in response to oxidative stress, and a great diversity of aldehydes are formed when lipid hydroperoxides break down in biological systems. Some of these aldehydes are highly reactive and may be considered as second toxic messengers which disseminate and augment initial free radical events. The aldehydes most intensively studied so far are 4-hydroxynonenal, 4-hydroxyhexenal, and malonaldehyde. The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive summary on the chemical properties of these aldehydes, the mechanisms of their formation and their occurrence in biological systems and methods for their determination. We will also review the reactions of 4-hydroxyalkenals and malonaldehyde with biomolecules (amino acids, proteins, nucleic acid bases), their metabolism in isolated cells and excretion in whole animals, as well as the many types of biological activities described so far, including cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, chemotactic activity, and effects on cell proliferation and gene expression. Structurally related compounds, such as acrolein, crotonaldehyde, and other 2-alkenals are also briefly discussed, since they have some properties in common with 4-hydroxyalkenals.

Abstract
We examined the excretion of free malondialdehyde (MDA) in the urine of rats to which a herbicide, Gramoxone, had been orally administered. The herbicide was administered for 2 days at a dose of 60 mg paraquat/kg body weight/day. As a result, the concentration of free MDA decreased following the intake of Gramoxone. The total amount of free MDA increased temporarily, but then it decreased significantly to below normal values. Rats that died during this experimental period did not excrete any free MDA. In the surviving animals, the MDA concentration in serum and lung microsomes decreased, while that in liver microsomes increased slightly after intake of the poison. Although the cause of the decrease in the urinary free MDA level remains unclear, the marked changes may provide valuable information regarding a toxic mechanism of paraquat intake.

Abstract
Increasing appreciation of the causative role of oxidative injury in many disease states places great importance on the reliable assessment of lipid peroxidation. Malondialdehyde (MDA) is one of several low-molecular-weight end products formed via the decomposition of certain primary and secondary lipid peroxidation products. At low pH and elevated temperature, MDA readily participates in nucleophilic addition reaction with 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA), generating a red, fluorescent 1:2 MDA:TBA adduct. These facts, along with the availability of facile and sensitive methods to quantify MDA (as the free aldehyde or its TBA derivative), have led to the routine use of MDA determination and, particularly, the "TBA test" to detect and quantify lipid peroxidation in a wide array of sample types. However, MDA itself participates in reactions with molecules other than TBA and is a catabolic substrate. Only certain lipid peroxidation products generate MDA (invariably with low yields), and MDA is neither the sole end product of fatty peroxide formation and decomposition nor a substance generated exclusively through lipid peroxidation. Many factors (e.g., stimulus for and conditions of peroxidation) modulate MDA formation from lipid. Additional factors (e.g., TBA-test reagents and constituents) have profound effects on test response to fatty peroxide-derived MDA. The TBA test is intrinsically nonspecific for MDA; nonlipid-related materials as well as fatty peroxide-derived decomposition products other than MDA are TBA positive. These and other considerations from the extensive literature on MDA. TBA reactivity, and oxidative lipid degradation support the conclusion that MDA determination and the TBA test can offer, at best, a narrow and somewhat empirical window on the complex process of lipid peroxidation. The MDA content and/or TBA reactivity of a system provides no information on the precise structures of the "MDA precursor(s)," their molecular origins, or the amount of each formed. Consequently, neither MDA determination nor TBA-test response can generally be regarded as a diagnostic index of the occurrence/extent of lipid peroxidation, fatty hydroperoxide formation, or oxidative injury to tissue lipid without independent chemical evidence of the analyte being measured and its source. In some cases, MDA/TBA reactivity is an indicator of lipid peroxidation; in other situations, no qualitative or quantitative relationship exists among sample MDA content, TBA reactivity, and fatty peroxide tone. Utilization of MDA analysis and/or the TBA test and interpretation of sample MDA content and TBA test response in studies of lipid peroxidation require caution, discretion, and (especially in biological systems) correlative data from other indices of fatty peroxide formation and decomposition.
