Interaction of tocopherols and phenolic compounds with membrane lipid components: evaluation of their antioxidant activity in a liposomal model system.

Abstract：

:This paper describes the use of complex liposomes as real membrane models to evaluate the potential benefits of several antioxidants in relation to lipid peroxidation. The xanthine oxidase/Fe(3+)-ADP-EDTA and the Fe(2+)/H2O2 systems have been used to generate hydroxyl radicals and the water soluble azo-compound 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH) to generate carbon centered radicals (A*) by thermal decomposition. The antioxidant behavior of the rosemary and citrus plant extracts and vitamin-E and vitamin-E acetate alpha-tocopherols have been analyzed. The order of effectiveness in avoiding radical chain reactions has been established by using the colorimetric thiobarbituric acid reaction and the fluorescent probe DPH-PA. ESR spectroscopy has been used to carry out the pursuit of the oxidation processes on the basis of the identification of the radical species resulting from the oxidant system and the ability of the antioxidants to act as scavengers for hydroxyl and AAPH-derived radicals. The modification of the main transition temperature for the lipid mixture and the splitting of the calorimetric peak in the presence of the antioxidants were demonstrated by differential scanning calorimetry. The results obtained showed that the phenols-containing plant extracts and alpha-tocopherols perturb the phase behavior of the BBE lipid bilayer and have a fluidifying effect that could favor the known antioxidant capability and scavenging characteristics of these compounds. 31P-NMR results could be interpreted as, after the incorporation of these antioxidants, those lipid molecules interacting with antioxidants give rise to lamellar phase spectral components with resonance position at lower fields or to isotropic signals in accordance with a higher motion of their phosphate groups.
