title: Mechanism of cobalt (II) ion inhibition of iron-supported phospholipid peroxidation.
abstract: Co2+ inhibited nonenzymatic iron chelate-dependent lipid peroxidation in dispersed lipids, such as ascorbate-supported lipid peroxidation, but not iron-independent lipid peroxidation. Histidine partially abolished the Co2+ inhibition of the iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. The affinity of iron for phosphatidylcholine liposomes in Fe(2+)-PPi-supported systems was enhanced by the addition of an anionic lipid, phosphatidylserine, and Co2+ competitively inhibited the peroxidation, while the inhibiting ability of Co2+ as well as the peroxidizing ability of Fe(2+)-PPi on liposomes to which other phospholipids, phosphatidylethanolamine, or phosphatidylinositol had been added was reduced. Co2+ inhibited microsomal NADPH-supported lipid peroxidation monitored in terms of malondialdehyde production and the peroxidation monitored in terms of oxygen consumption. The inhibitory action of Co2+ was not associated with iron reduction or NADPH oxidation in microsomes, suggesting that Co2+ does not affect the microsomal electron transport system responsible for lipid peroxidation. Fe(2+)-PPi-supported peroxidation of microsomal lipid liposomes was markedly inhibited by Co2+.
