Fenton reaction and iron autoxidation have been debated for the major process in ROS mediated DNA cleavage. We compared both processes on iron oxidation, DNA cleavage, and cyclic voltammetric experiment at different pHs. Both oxidation reactions were preferred at basic pH condition, unlike DNA cleavage. This indicates that iron oxidation and the following steps probably occur separately. The ROS generated from autoxidation seems to be superoxide radical since sod exerted the best inhibition on DNA cleavage when $H_2O_2$ was absent. In comparison of cyclic voltammograms of $Fe^{2+}$ in NaCl solution and phosphate buffer, DNA addition to phosphate buffer induced significant change in the redox cycle of iron, indicating that iron may bind DNA as a complex with phosphate. Different pulse voltammogram in the presence of ctDNA suggest that iron ions are recyclable at acidic pH, whereas they may form an electrically stable complex with DNA at high pH condition.

350 ppm 농도로 물/카놀라 기름 에멀션에 첨가된 달걀 노른자 위 레시틴은 에멀션 기름의 철 이온에 의한 자동산화와 클로로필에 의한 감광산화에 유의한 영향을 나타내지 않았다. 에멀션의 산화 중 달걀 노른자위 레시틴으로부터 유래한 인지방질은 분해되었으며 감광산화에 비해 자동산화에서 분해 속도가 높았다. 그러나 PC와 PE 사이의 분해 속도는 두 종류의 산화에서 모두 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다(p>0.05).

Purpose: Lipid autoxidation of a soybean oil-in-water emulsion with high oil content was studied under after basil extract and/or iron addition. Methods: The emulsion consisted of tocopherol-stripped soybean oil (40 g), citrate buffer (60 g, pH 4.0), and/or $FeSO_4$ (0.5 mg) with 75% ethanol extract (200 mg/kg) of basil (Ocimum basilicum). Lipid oxidation was evaluated using headspace oxygen content, hydroperoxide contents, and p-anisidne values of the emulsion. Polyphenol compound retention in the emulsion during oxidation was determined spectrophotometrically. Results: Addition of basil extract significantly (p<0.05) decreased reduced hydroperoxide contents of the emulsion, and iron significantly (p<0.05) increased anisidine values and decreased oxygen contents. Co-addition of basil extract and iron showed significantly (p<0.05) lower reduced hydroperoxide contents in the emulsion than compared to those of the emulsion with added iron and the control emulsion without basil extract nor or iron. During the emulsion oxidation, polyphenol compounds in the emulsion with added basil extract were degraded, but more slowlywhich was slowed degraded in the presence of iron. Conclusion: The iIron increased the lipid oxidation through hydroperoxide decomposition, and basil extract showed antioxidant activity through radical-scavenging and iron-chelation. Polyphenol degradation was decelerated by iron addition, which suggested suggests iron chelation may be more preferred topreferentially activated over radical scavenging in the antioxidant action by of basil extract in the oil-in-water emulsion with high oil content.

This work investigated the difference between $Fe^{2+}$ autoxidation-induced and Fenton-type cleavage of pBR322 plasmid DNA. $^{\cdot}OH$ generation reactions in the absence and presence of $H_2O_2$ under various conditions were also investigated. Although both the $Fe^{2+}$ autoxidation and Fenton-type reactions showed DNA cleavage and $^{\cdot}OH$ generation, there were significant differences in their efficiencies and reaction rates. The rate and efficiency of the cleavage reaction were higher in the absence of 1.0 mM of $H_2O_2$ than in its presence in 20 mM phosphate buffer. In contrast, the $^{\cdot}OH$ generation reaction was more prominent in the presence of $H_2O_2$ and showed a pH-independent, fast initial reaction rate, but the rate was decreased in the absence of $H_2O_2$ at across the entire tested pH range. Studies using radical scavengers on DNA cleavage and $^{\cdot}OH$ generation reactions in both the absence and presence of $H_2O_2$ confirmed that both reactions spontaneously involved the active oxygen species $^{\cdot}OH$, ${O_2}^{\cdot-}$, $^1O_2$ and $H_2O_2$, indicating that a similar process may participate in both reactions. Based on the above observations, a new mechanism for the $Fe^{2+}$ autoxidation-induced DNA cleavage reaction is proposed.

철분은 생체 내에서 이루어지는 거의 모든 대사에 필수적인 성분이지만, 식음에 포함된 철분의 양은 극히 적어서 철분강화에 대한 연구가 꾸준히 진행되어 왔다. 이에 따라， 철분공여물질을 함유한 리포즘을 이용하여 철분 강화 식품첨가제를 개발하였다. 철분공여물질로 ferrous sulfate와 hemin을 사용하였으며, 이러한 철분 함유 리포좀을 제조하는데 가장 큰 문제점은 ferrous sulfate의 자체 산화와 ferrous sul fate와 hemin으로 인한 리포좀의 지질산화로 지적되었다 또한, ferrous sulfate에 의한 리포좀의 산화 정도는 hemin의 경우보다 낮은 것으로 관찰되었다. Ferrous sulfate의 자동 산화를 억제하기 위하여 수용성 항산화제인 ascorbic acid가 첨가되었으나, 첨가된 ascorbic acid는 ferrous sulfate와 hemin을 함유한 리포좀의 산화를 억제시키지 못했으며, 오히려 ferrous sulfate에 의한 리포좀의 산화를 촉진시키는 것으로 관찰되었다 여기에 지용성 항산화제인 $\alpha$-tocopherol을 추가적으로 첨가함으로써, ferrous sulfate의 자동산화를 억제하고 hemin과 ferrous sulfate에 의한 리포좀의 산화가 억제된 철분 함유 리포좀이 제조되었다.

Peroxidase-like activity of Vitreoscilla hemoglobin (VHb) has been recently disclosed. To maximize such activity, two catalytically conserved residues (histidine and arginine) found in the distal pocket of peroxidases have successfully been introduced into that of the VHb. A 15-fold increase in catalytic constant ($k_{cat}$) was obtained in P54R variant,which was presumably attributable to the lower rigidity and higher hydrophilicity of the distal cavity arising from substitution of proline to arginine. None of the modifications altered the affinity towards either $H_2O_2$ or ABTS substrate. Spectroscopic studies revealed that VHb variants harboring the T29H mutation apparently demonstrated a spectral shift in both ferric and ferrous forms (406-408 to 411 nm, and 432 to 424-425 nm, respectively). All VHb proteins in the ferrous state had a $\lambda_{soret}$ peak at ~419 nm following the carbon monoxide (CO) binding. Expression of the P54R mutant mediated the downregulation of iron superoxide dismutase (FeSOD) as identified by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF). According to the high peroxidase activity of P54R, it could effectively eliminate autoxidation-derived $H_2O_2$, which is a cause of heme degradation and iron release. This decreased the iron availability and consequently reduced the formation of the $Fe^{2+}$-ferric uptake regulator protein ($Fe^{2+}$-Fur), an inducer of FeSOD expression.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of L-lysine (Lys)/L-arginine (Arg) on lipid and protein oxidation of emulsion sausage during storage and its possible mechanism. Methods: Four samples were prepared based on the presence or absence of additional sodium isoascorbate, Lys, or Arg: sample A (control), sample B (0.05 g of sodium isoascorbate), sample C (0.4 g of Lys), and sample D (0.4 g of Arg). Peroxide value (POV), thiobarbituric reactive substances (TBARS), protein carbonyls and thiols were measured. 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and hydroxyl radical-scavenging, ferrous ion-chelating ability were also measured. Results: Compared with the control, the sample treated with sodium isoascorbate, Lys or Arg had significantly lower POV during the initial 20 days, TBARS during the initial 15 days. Protein carbonyls were significantly lower compared Sample B, C, and D with A during the later storage (10 to 25 days); basically, protein thiols became lower during storage when the samples were treated with sodium isoascorbate, Lys, or Arg. Both Lys and Arg had weak reducing power but strong ferrous ion-chelating activity and DPPH radical- and hydroxyl radical-scavenging activity. Conclusion: Both Lys and Arg effectively inhibited the oxidation of lipids and proteins in emulsion sausage by scavenging free radicals and chelating ferrous ions. The results obtained may be favorable for the prevention of lipid and protein oxidation during processing and storage of meat products.

Harmaline을 포함한 ${\beta}-Carboline$ 알카로이드들은 마이크로조움의 효소성 또는 비효소성 지질 과산화를 억제한다고 제시되고 있으나, 이들의 항산화 작용기전은 분명하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 $Fe^{2+}$와 $H_2O_2$에 의한 hyaluronic acid, 지질과 콜라젠의 산화성 손상에 있어 harmaline과 harmalol의 항산화 능력을 관찰하였다. 또한 반응성 산소대사물에 대한 이들의 제거작용을 조사하였다. Harmaline, harmalol, superoxide dismutase, catalase와 DMSO는 $Fe^{2+}$와 $H_2O_2$에 의한 hyaluronic acid의 변성과 $Fe^{2+}$에 의한 지질 과산화를 억제하였다. 이들 반응에서 DABCO는 hyaluronic acid의 변성을 억제하였으나 지질 과산화에 영향을 나타내지 않았다. ${\beta}-Carboline$은 $Fe^{2+}$, $H_2O_2$와 ascorbic acid에 의한 cartilage collagen의 변성을 억제하였다. Superoxide dismutase에 의하여 억제되는 $Fe^{2+}$의 자가산화에 따른 ferricytochrome c의 환원은 harmaline과 harmalol의 영향을 받지 않았다. 또한 이들은 $H_2O_2$에 대하여 분해작용을 나타내지 않았다. $Fe^{2+}$와 $H_2O_2$의 존재하에서 OH 생성은 harmaline, harmalol과 DMSO에 의하여 억제되었다. Harmaline과 harmalol은 반응성 산소대사물인 OH 과 아마도 철이온-산소 복합체에 대한 제거작용으로써 $Fe^{2+}$와 $H_2O_2$에 의한 hyaluronic acid, 지질과 콜라젠의 산화성 손상을 억제하고, 항산화 능력을 나타낼 것으로 추정된다.
