Lipid peroxidation presents the oxidative degradation of polyunsaturated fatty acids lincited by reactive species. Excessive accumulation of lipid peroxidation byproducts, including 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) and malondialdehyde (MDA), causes protein dysfunction and various illnesses. Aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) catalyze the metabolism of both endogenous and exogenous aldehydes. These enzymes participate in detoxification and intermediary metabolism. Contemporary research has affirmed the involvement of both enzymatic and non-enzymatic pathways of ALDHs in modulating the evolution of diseases associated with lipid peroxidation. This review provides an overview of the biological functions and clinical implications concerning the enzymatic and non-enzymatic pathways of ALDHs in diseases related to lipid peroxidation, such as, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), atherosclerosis, and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Furthermore, the activators or inhibitors of ALDHs represent a promising therapeutic strategy for lipid peroxidation-related diseases.

Water scarcity is a foremost environmental concern and is expected to hasten in the forthcoming years due to severe fluctuations in weather patterns worldwide. The present work was designed to explore the potential role of alpha-tocopherol (α-Toc), a form of vitamin E, on the morphological, physio-biochemical, and cellular antioxidant responses of two radish genotypes grown under drought conditions (38 ± 3% of field capacity). The individual and combined applications of α-Toc (100 ppm) were used as T0- Control, T1- Control + TF (TF-alpha-tocopherol), T2- Drought (D), and T3- D + TF with three replications.

Ferroptosis is a newly identified programmed cell death induced by iron-driven lipid peroxidation and implicated as a potential approach for tumor treatment. However, emerging evidence indicates that hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells are generally resistant to ferroptosis and the underlying molecular mechanism is poorly understood. Here, our study confirms that S100 calcium binding protein P (S100P), which is significantly up-regulated in ferroptosis-resistant HCC cells, efficiently inhibits ferroptosis.

Enzymatically formed side-chain oxysterols function as signaling molecules regulating cholesterol homeostasis and act as intermediates in the biosynthesis of bile acids. In addition to these physiological functions, an imbalance in oxysterol homeostasis has been implicated in pathophysiology. Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H) and its product 25-hydroxycholesterol (25-OHC), also formed by autoxidation, are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

The lack of effective protection against UVB radiation, that severely disrupts the metabolism of keratinocytes, underlines the search for bioactive compounds that would provide effective protection without causing side effects. Therefore, the aim of the study has been to assess the effect of two compounds, that are different in terms of structure and properties: 3-O-ethyl ascorbic acid-EAA (a stable derivative of vitamin C) and cannabigerol-CBG, used separately or concurrently, on the metabolism of keratinocytes previously exposed to UVB. The obtained results indicate diverse, yet mutually reinforcing localization of the tested compounds, both within the membrane structures and cytosol.
