In vitro antioxidant activity of 2,5,7,8-tetramethyl-2-(2'-carboxyethyl)-6-hydroxychroman (alpha-CEHC), a vitamin E metabolite.

Abstract:

:2,5,7,8-tetramethyl-2-(2'-carboxyethyl)-6-hydroxychroman (alpha-CEHC) has been identified as a major water-soluble metabolite of vitamin E, which circulates in the blood and is excreted with the urine. The aim of this study was to assess the antioxidant activity of alpha-CEHC using several methods with different prooxidant challenges. In the Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity assay, a fluorescent protein acts as a marker for oxidative damage induced by peroxyl radicals. In the Trolox Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity (TEAC) assay, a stable free radical, 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS.+) is reduced directly by antioxidants. Scavenging properties vs. reactive nitrogen species were studied measuring the effects on tyrosine nitration after reaction with peroxynitrite. Trolox, alpha-tocopherol, ascorbic acid, and (-)-epicatechin were simultaneously tested in order to compare their antioxidant activities. In all mentioned systems, alpha-CEHC exhibited antioxidant properties similar to those of Trolox. We conclude that alpha-CEHC is a molecule with good antioxidant activity, having the advantage over Trolox of being a naturally occurring compound. These properties might be useful for research or industrial purposes.
