Although malondialdehyde and methylglyoxal have the same molecular formula, they have different chemistry in forming protein adducts. The major lysine adduct of malondialdehyde in hemoglobin is the -propenal type, while that of methylglyoxal is -(1-carboxyethyl)lysine. This Letter provides evidence that the "methylglyoxal-like" hemoglobin adducts are not derived from malondialdehyde. This Letter also discusses the quantification of malondialdehyde-induced post-translational modifications in human hemoglobin by different mass spectrometry-based methods.

Objective: Ulcerative colitis (UC), a chronic and refractory nonspecific inflammatory bowel disease, affects millions of patients worldwide and increases the risk of colorectal cancer. Teprenone is an acylic polyisoprenoid that exerts anti-inflammatory properties in rat models of peptic ulcer disease. This and study was designed to investigate the effects of teprenone on UC and to explore the underlying mechanisms.

Malondialdehyde (MDA) is the most abundant α,β-unsaturated aldehyde generated from endogenous peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids and is present in cigarette smoke. Post-translational modifications of blood hemoglobin can serve as biomarkers for exposure to chemicals. In this study, two types of MDA-induced modifications, the -propenal and the dihydropyridine (DHP), were identified at multiple sites in human hemoglobin digest by the high-resolution mass spectrometry.

Objectives: Improper usage of acetaminophen (APAP) leads to morbidity and also mortality secondary to liver damage. Ginseng could suppress APAP-induced hepatotoxicity and ginsenoside Rg3 is a kind of major component in ginseng against liver damage. Herein, we intended to estimate the beneficial function and molecular mechanism of Rg3 on APAP-caused hepatotoxicity and identified hepatoprotection.

The study was to investigate the effects of flavonoids (rutin, puerarin, and silymarin) on learning and memory function in rats exposed to aluminum chloride (AlCl). Wistar rats were administered flavonoids at a dose of 100 mg/(kg·bw)/day or 200 mg/(kg·bw)/day after exposed to 281.40 mg/(kg·bw)/day AlCl·6HO.
