Vitamin A supplementation inhibits chemiluminescence and lipid peroxidation in isolated rat liver microsomes and mitochondria.

Abstract:

:In the present study we investigated if administration of vitamin A could protect rat liver microsomes and mitochondria from in vitro peroxidation. Appreciable decrease of chemiluminescence and lipid peroxidation was measured in microsomal membranes from rats receiving vitamin A, with respect to control animals. In membranes derived from control animals, the fatty acid composition was profoundly modified when subjected to in vitro peroxidation mediated by ascorbate-Fe++, with a considerable decrease of 20:4 n6 and 22:6 n3 in mitochondria and 18:2 n6 and 20:4 n6 in microsomes. As a consequence the peroxidizability index, a parameter based on the maximal rate of oxidation of specific fatty acids was higher in supplemented animals than in control group when both kind of membranes were analyzed. These changes were less pronounced in membranes derived from rats receiving vitamin A. These results are in agreement with previous results that indicated that vitamin A may act as an antioxidant protecting membranes from deleterious effects.
