Objective To study the effect of oxidative modification of hydrochlorous acid (HOCl) on human serum albumin (HSA) and the relationship between the AOPPs and HOCl-treated HSA. Methods Purified HSA (60 mg/ml) was treated with HOCl (0, 1, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 mmol/L). Size-exclusion chromatography was applied to estimate molecular weights of oxidized products of HSA by HOCl and spectrum scan from 190 nm -400 nm was performed to observe the spectrum characteristics of all variants of HSA. Results Major products of HSA after exposure to HOC1 were dimer and hexmer of HSA. The first-order process could be employed to describe the oxidative dynamics of monomer and dimer of HSA oxidized by HOCl. To AOPPs formation mediated by oxidant was identified as pseudo first-order reaction. However, formation hexmer was much in accordance with second-order reaction. Hexmer was also a major contributor to AOPPs in all types of modified HSA. Spectral analysis showed that red shift of absorbance maximum of polymers of HSA occurred, suggesting that a possibility that polymers of HSA were cross linked by tyrosine residues in protein. Conclusions Protein aggregation is primary consequence of HSA after its exposure to HOCl. Hexmer of HSA is the major contributor to AOPPs.

Objective To study whether the uremic toxins accumulated long-term in uremia patients may be involved in oxidation of protein by forming advanced oxidative protein products (AOPPs). Methods Malonylaldehyde (MDA), hippuric acid (HA) and p-cresol were used as the representatives of uremic toxins. Human albumin serum (HSA), plasma specimens from normal or uremia patients were incubated respectively with MDA (10 retool/L), HA (20 mmol/L) and p-cresol (10 retool/L) or PBS (20 retool/L, pH 7.4, as control groups) at 37℃ for 30 minutes or 24 hours, respectively. Those indices such as AOPPs, protein thiol groups (Pt-SH) and dityrosine were used as biomarkers of protein injury. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was employed to identify the aggregation and cross-links of modified proteins. Results AOPPs levels in all groups containing poison compounds were significantly increased by 121.5%(P<0.05) compared to that in control groups. Uremic toxins also resulted in over 14.7% loss in Pt-SH (P< 0.05) and 119.2% increment in dityrosine, respectively (P<0.05). Meanwhile, the formation of HMW-AOPPs in a time-dependent manner was observed by HPLC and cross-linked protein levels were significantly increased by 148.45%~333.3% in comparison with control groups. Conclusion Uremic toxins can directly mediate the damage of proteins by inducing the formation of HMW- AOPPs in a time-dependent manner, which is also one of the mechanism of AOPPs production in vivo besides the activation of the myeloperoxidase-H2O2-Cl pathway.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of ethanol extracts of Tadehagi triquetrum ( TTOE) on car-bon tetrachloride ( CCl4 )-induced acute liver injury in mice. Methods Kunming mice were randomly divided into six groups:normal control group ( NC group) ,model control group,bifendate dropping pill group,low-,medium-and high-dose TTOE groups. The liver injury model was established by administration of CCl4 in all the groups except the NC group.The indexes of the liver, spleen and thymus were obtained.The activities of serum ALT,AST,ALP,LDH, albumin and T-AOC were measured.The activi-ties of SOD and GSH-PX and the contents of MDA,NO and GSH and Cyt P450 were also detected in hepatic tissues. Results TTOE at different doses could obviously reduce the indexes of the liver,thymus and spleen,which were (57.13±0.71),(32.44± 0.24),and (27.78±0.16),respectively,in high-dose TTOE group,and there were significant differences between the TTOE groups and model control group (P<0.01).The activities of ALT,AST,ALP and LDH were obviously decreased in high-dose TTOE groups,which were (65.59±8.23),(141.38±15.52),(2 462.4±253.6),(172.51±20.64),respectively,in the TTOE high-dose group (P<0.01).The serum levels of Alb and T-AOC were obviously increased,the contents of NO and MDA significantly decreased and the activities of SOD and GSH-PX and the contents of GSH Cyt P450 in liver tissues profoundly increased in TTOE groups when compared with those in model control group ( P<0.05 or P<0.01) . Conclusion TTOE could protect against acute hepatic injury induced by CCl4 in mice,which may be associated with the decrease in the activities of liver enzymes,anti-oxide free radical effect,decreased NO content and inhibited lipid peroxidation.
