The activation was accompanied by production of superoxide radicals. This finding was confirmed by measuring superoxide dismutase-sensitive reduction of cytochrome c. Incubation of monocytes or neutrophils with low-density lipoproteins (LDL) resulted in the accumulation of lipid peroxidation (LPO) products which were assayed by the 2-thiobarbituric acid test. Data from inhibitory analysis suggest that the hydroxyl radical scavenger, mannitol, had no appreciable effect on the accumulation of LPO products during the incubation of LDL with either cell type. However, catalase, superoxide dismutase, the metal ion chelators desferrioxamine and EDTA, as well as the free radical scavenger, butylated hydroxytoluene, markedly decreased the accumulation of LPO products in the medium--by 88%, 67%, 38%, 52%, and 47%, respectively, after incubation of LDL with monocytes, and by 65%, 47%, 41%, 65%, and 100% after incubation of LDL with neutrophils. These results indicate that activation of monocytes and neutrophils by oxidized LP intensifies LPO which proceeds via a free-radical mechanism that is superoxide-dependent and is catalyzed by transition metals.</p>","PeriodicalId":77499,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical science","volume":"2 6","pages":"581-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13002794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The appearance of antibodies to endogenous erythrocytes was also monitored. This study was performed on animals of the following age groups: (1) 2-3-month-old animals prior to the appearance of autoantibodies; (2) 6-7-month-old animals in the period when the disease developed; and (3) 10-12-month-old animals, i.e. the period when the autoimmune disease developed. It was demonstrated that in the 10-12-month-old mice there was a sharp decrease in the total corticosterone level in the plasma (from 152 +/- 32 to about 20 micrograms l-1), and the reactivity of the adrenal glands to exogenous corticotrophin decreased (from 400% to 120%). However, the binding capacity of CBG increased with age which led to a decrease in the pool of active corticosterone in the blood. The increase in this capacity was especially pronounced in affected 10-12-month-old animals. (The number of binding sites increased from 0.64 +/- 0.05 to 0.8 +/- 0.03 microM and the values of the association constant for the binding of corticosterone to CBG increased from 0.29 +/- 0.05 to 0.91 +/- 0.07 microM-1).
