Free radical co-oxidation of polyunsaturated lipids with tyrosine or phenolic analogues of tyrosine gave rise to lipid peroxide-tyrosine (phenol) adducts in both aqueous micellar and organic solutions. The novel adducts were isolated and characterized by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy

The antioxidative action of fullerenes has received much attention, but their reaction mechanism toward lipid-derived peroxyl radicals has not been well elucidated. In this study, the reaction products of [60]fullerene (C(60)) during the autoxidation of methyl linoleate (MeL) were isolated

5,7-, 5,8-, 6,8-, 7,8-dichloro-4-quinolinol-3-carboxylic acid (5,7-, 5,8-, 6,8-, 7,8-DCQA) together with 7-chloro-4-quinolinol-3-carboxylic acid (7-CQA) and 4-quinolinol-3-carboxylic acid (QA) were synthesized to investigate the antioxidant properties. 5,7-DCQA exhibited the highest ability to scavenge 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) cationic radical (ABTS+.), 2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and galvinoxyl

Nitro-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (nitro-PAHs) are a class of genotoxic environmental contaminants. We have long been interested in determining the mechanisms by which nitro-PAHs induce genotoxicity. Although the metabolic activation of nitro-PAHs leading to toxicological activities has been well studied, the
Pyrrolizidine alkaloid (PA)-containing plants are widespread in the world and are probably the most common poisonous plants affecting livestock, wildlife, and human. PAs require metabolic activation to generate pyrrolic metabolites (dehydro-PAs) that bind cellular protein and DNA, leading to hepatotoxicity
