The chain-breaking antioxidant activities of reduced form of novel type of geroprotectors, mitochondria-targeted quinones (QH(2)) have quantitatively been measured for the first time. To this end, the chain peroxidation of methyl linoleate (ML) in Triton micelles was used as a
Myeloperoxidase is very susceptible to reducing radicals because the reduction potential of the ferric/ferrous redox couple is much higher compared with other peroxidases. Semiquinone radicals are known to reduce heme proteins. Therefore, the kinetics and spectra of the reactions of

(1) A kinetic analysis of electron donation into and through the cytochrome b-c1 complex isolated from bovine heart mitochondria has been undertaken, using trimethoquinol as the donor. (2) Rate constants of two routes of redox equilibration with quinols have been
