Abstract/OtherAbstract:
An integrative mathematical model was developed to obtain an overall picture of lipid hydroperoxide metabolism in the mitochondrial inner membrane and surrounding matrix environment. The model explicitly considers an aqueous and a membrane phase, integrates a wide set of experimental data, and unsupported assumptions were minimized. The following biochemical processes were considered: the classic reactional scheme of lipid peroxidation; antioxidant and pro-oxidant effects of vitamin E; pro-oxidant effects of iron; action of phospholipase A2, glutathione-dependent peroxidases, glutathione reductase and superoxide dismutase; production of superoxide radicals by the mitochondrial respiratory chain; oxidative damage to proteins and DNA. Steady-state fluxes and concentrations as well as half-lives and mean displacements for the main metabolites were calculated. A picture of lipid hydroperoxide physiological metabolism in mitochondria in vivo showing the main pathways is presented. The main results are: (a) perhydroxyl radical is the main initiation agent of lipid peroxidation (with a flux of 10(-7)MS-1); (b) vitamin E efficiently inhibits lipid peroxidation keeping the amplification (kinetic chain length) of lipid peroxidation at low values (approximately equal to 10); (c) only a very minor fraction of lipid hydroperoxides escapes reduction via glutathione-dependent peroxidases; (d) oxidized glutathione is produced mainly from the reduction of hydrogen peroxide and not from the reduction of lipid hydroperoxides.
