title: Simultaneous measurements of conjugated dienes and free malondialdehyde, used as a micromethod for the evaluation of lipid peroxidation in rat hepatocyte cultures.
abstract: Membrane lipid peroxidation in rat hepatocyte cultures was induced by a 5-h incubation with either ethanol (50 mM) or the chelate iron-nitrilotriacetic acid (Fe-NTA) (100 microM). To test the oxidative stress, two indices were measured simultaneously on the same sample: extracellular free malondialdehyde (MDA) measured by HPLC with a size exclusion column, and conjugated dienes (CD) determined by second derivative spectroscopy. With ethanol, both CD and MDA gave nearly the same values of lipid peroxidation, about 135% of the control value. With Fe-NTA, both indices indicated a higher lipid peroxidation, but the MDA and CD values were different. Iron lipid peroxidation evaluated by free MDA and CD was, 290 and 230%, respectively, of the control. This discrepancy could be ascribed to an increased decomposition of hydroperoxides by iron. In addition, the ratio of cis,trans and trans,trans conjugated dienes, which reflects the cellular redox status, remained unchanged after 5 h of lipid peroxidation induced either by ethanol or iron.
