Nondestructive determination of canola oil oxidation causes: A near-infrared spectroscopy coupled with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry for analyzing triacylglycerol hydroperoxide isomers.

Monitoring oxidation causes (i.e. radical and/or photo-oxidation) of vegetable oil gives very important information for its quality control.

Mechanism of lipid peroxidation of liposomes by cold atmospheric pressure plasma jet irradiation.

Liposome lipid peroxidation induced by cold atmospheric pressure plasma jet (CAPPJ) irradiation was investigated. The formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), an indicator of lipid peroxidation final products, as a function of irradiation was observed. Lipid radicals, peroxidation reaction intermediates generated by CAPPJ irradiation, were confirmed by increased NBD-pen fluorescence intensity.

Induction of ferroptosis in human keratinocyte HaCaT cells by squalene hydroperoxide: Possible prevention of skin ferroptosis by botanical extracts.

Ever since the proposal of ferroptosis, it has been studied as a nonapoptotic cell death caused by iron ion-dependent phospholipid (PL) peroxidation. We previously showed that treatment of human hepatoma cell line HepG2 with prepared PL hydroperoxide (PLOOH) resulted in ferroptosis. However, in human sebum, the major hydroperoxide is not PLOOH but squalene hydroperoxide (SQOOH), and to our knowledge, it is not established yet whether SQOOH induces ferroptosis in the skin.

Preparation of saturated fatty acid hydroperoxide isomers and determination of their thermal decomposition products - 2-alkanones and lactones.

As known for quite a long time now, even saturated fatty acids can be oxidized at high temperatures to produce unique aroma compounds, such as 2-alkanones and lactones. Hydroperoxide positional isomers with a hydroperoxy group at the 2-, 3-, 4-, or 5-position are hypothesized to be responsible for the formation of these aroma components, but this hypothesis has not been verified. For the first time, this study successfully prepared a series of glyceryl trioctanoate hydroperoxide (C8TG;OOH) isomers.

Analysis of oxidized glucosylceramide and its effects on altering gene expressions of inflammation induced by LPS in intestinal tract cell models.

Glucosylceramide (GlcCer) belongs to sphingolipids and is found naturally in plant foods and other sources that humans consume daily. Our previous studies demonstrated that GlcCer prevents inflammatory bowel disease both in vitro and in vivo, whose patients are increasing alarmingly. Although some lipids are vulnerable to oxidation which changes their structure and activities, it is unknown whether oxidative modification of GlcCer affects its activity.

Quantitative Lipidomic Analysis of Serum Phospholipids Reveals Dissociable Markers of Alzheimer's Disease and Subcortical Cerebrovascular Disease.

Background: Circulating phospholipid species have been shown to predict Alzheimer's disease (AD) prognosis but the link between phospholipid disturbances and subcortical small vessel cerebrovascular disease (CeVD) common in AD patients is not known.

Objective: Mass-spectrometry lipidomics was applied to quantify serum diacyl, alkenyl (ether), alkyl, and lyso phospholipid species in individuals with extensive CeVD (n = 29), AD with minimal CeVD (n = 16), and AD with extensive CeVD (n = 14), and compared them to age-matched controls (n = 27). Memory was assessed using the California Verbal Learning Test.

Elucidation of decomposition pathways of linoleic acid hydroperoxide isomers by GC-MS and LC-MS/MS.

Food lipid oxidation provides various volatile compounds involved in food flavor via the decomposition of lipid hydroperoxide (LOOH). This study predicted the pathways which can coherently explain LOOH decomposition focusing on hydroperoxy octadecadienoic acid (HpODE) isomers (9-EZ-HpODE, 9-EE-HpODE, 10-HpODE, 12-HpODE, 13-ZE-HpODE, and 13-EE-HpODE) which are the major LOOH contained in edible oils. Each standard was first prepared and thermally decomposed.

Cellular Uptake of Pyrroloquinoline Quinone in Its Intact and Derivatized Forms from the Cell Culture Medium of 3T3-L1.

Following a growing interest in the physiological effects of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), more cell culture experiments have begun to elucidate its mechanism of action. However, to our knowledge, no reports have used instrumental analysis, such as liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), to study cellular uptake of PQQ. In addition, despite the propensity of PQQ to react with amino acids and other compounds, only a handful of cell culture experiments have been conducted on PQQ derivatives.

Possible Glutathione Peroxidase 4-Independent Reduction of Phosphatidylcholine Hydroperoxide: Its Relevance to Ferroptosis.

Ferroptosis is mainly caused by iron-mediated peroxidation of phospholipids and has recently attracted attention due to its involvement in various diseases. At the center of it is supposedly the inability of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) to reduce excess peroxidized phospholipids (e.g.

Dietary triacylglycerol hydroperoxide is not absorbed, yet it induces the formation of other triacylglycerol hydroperoxides in the gastrointestinal tract.

The in vivo presence of triacylglycerol hydroperoxide (TGOOH), a primary oxidation product of triacylglycerol (TG), has been speculated to be involved in various diseases. Thus, considerable attention has been paid to whether dietary TGOOH is absorbed from the intestine. In this study, we performed the lymph duct-cannulation study in rats and analyzed the level of TGOOH in lymph following administration of a TG emulsion containing TGOOH.

TRPV2 Promotes Cell Migration and Invasion in Gastric Cancer via the Transforming Growth Factor-β Signaling Pathway.

Background: Transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) is a highly Ca-permeable ion channel that is involved in a number of cellular processes. It is expressed in various human cancers; however, the role of TRPV2 in gastric cancer (GC) remains poorly understood.

Methods: TRPV2 gene expression was knocked down in GC cell lines by small-interfering RNA (siRNA), and the biological roles of TRPV2 in the proliferation, migration, and invasion of GC cells were then investigated.

Novel Photoinduced Squalene Cyclic Peroxide Identified, Detected, and Quantified in Human Skin Surface Lipids.

Skin surface lipids (SSLs) form the first barrier that protects the human organism from external stressors, disruption of the homeostasis of SSLs can result in severe skin abnormalities. One of the main causes of this disruption is oxidative stress that is primarily due to SSLs oxidation. Squalene (SQ), the most abundant lipid among SSLs, was shown to first undergo singlet molecular oxygen (O) oxidation to yield 6 SQ-monohydroperoxide (SQ-OOH) isomers as the primary oxidation products.

Lipidomics and Redox Lipidomics Indicate Early Stage Alcohol-Induced Liver Damage.

Alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) is characterized by lipid accumulation and inflammation and can progress to cirrhosis and cancer in the liver. AFLD diagnosis currently relies on histological analysis of liver biopsies. Early detection permits interventions that would prevent progression to cirrhosis or later stages of the disease.

Investigation of Lipoproteins Oxidation Mechanisms by the Analysis of Lipid Hydroperoxide Isomers.

The continuous formation and accumulation of oxidized lipids (e.g., lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH)) which are present even in plasma lipoproteins of healthy subjects, are ultimately considered to be linked to various diseases.
