Abstract

Erythrocytes obtained from human patients with circulatory shock of different aetiology consistently showed a strong increase in lipid peroxidation-derived aldehytes in comparison with red cells or normal adults. The highly toxic compound 4-hydroxynonenal has been recovered exclusively in the erythrocytes of the patients.

    Indeed, erythrocytes, the most abundant cells in the human organism, are directly exposed to the biochemical milieu of plasma. In addition, the exposure to high concentrations of oxygen and haemoglobin, the absence of organelles including nucleus and mitochondria, incapacity to synthesize new proteins and detoxifying enzymes, make RBC extremely sensitive to oxidative damage with erythrocyte membrane particularly prone to undergo lipid peroxidation under OxS condition [118,120,1119]. This notion is in line with recent findings which showed a significant increase of MDA in RTT patients erythrocytes [76].

    Citation Excerpt :

    HNE toxicity is mainly due to the resultant alterations of cell function secondary to the formation of covalent adducts with proteins [7]. HNE reactivity was detected at first by Schauenstein and Esterbauer in the late 1970s, with subsequent studies demonstrating its harmful effect towards biological components and its marked cytotoxicity [7–13]. Since the 1990s a link between neurodegenerative disorders and increased levels of lipid peroxidation (LPO) end products was established [2,3,14–16].
