    Abstract Prostaglandin D₂ is one of five chief prostanoids formed in the cyclooxygenase pathway of arachidonic acid oxidation. Except for a single oxygen atom, PGD₂ is structurally identical to 11‐dehydro thromboxane B₂ (11d‐TxB₂), a urinary metabolite of the pro‐aggregatory platelet activator, thromboxane A₂. The close structural relationship suggested that one might be transformed to the other. Accordingly, we tested whether the cyclopentanone of PGD₂ can be expanded to the δ‐lactone of 11d‐TxB₂ in a Baeyer‐Villiger oxidation. Oxidation of PGD₂ with two standard oxidants showed that 11d‐TxB₂ was formed only with H₂O₂ but not with peracetic acid. Byproducts of the H₂O₂‐mediated oxidation were hydroperoxide derivatives and isomers of PGD₂. Chemical oxidation of PGD₂ to 11d‐TxB₂ may be a model for an equivalent enzymatic transformation, suggesting a possible link in the metabolism of PGD₂ and thromboxane A₂.

    Abstract Although herbs and spices have been used in traditional medicine for more than a century owing to their health benefits, the associated underlying mechanism is still not clear. Since the G protein-coupled receptor 35 (GPR35) has been linked to exert various antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, we screened 19 different herbs and spices for possible GPR35 agonist(s) to understand the GPR35-dependent functions of herbs and spices. Among the screened extracts, the ethyl acetate extract of thyme exhibited a remarkable GPR35 agonistic activity. Activity-guided separations allowed us to identify 2 polyphenolic phytochemicals, eriodictyol and thymonin, acting as GPR35 agonists. Both eriodictyol and thymonin showed a potent and specific agonist activity toward GPR35 with half maximal effective concentration values of 5.48 and 8.41 µm, respectively. These findings indicate that these phytochemicals may have beneficial health effects upon GPR35 activation.

    Abstract Protein S-thiolation is a reversible oxidative modification that serves as an oxidative regulatory mechanism for certain enzymes and binding proteins with reactive cysteine residues. It is generally believed that the thiolation occurs at free sulphydryl group of cysteine residues. Meanwhile, despite the fact that disulphide linkages, serving structural and energetic roles in proteins, are stable and inert to oxidative modification, a recent study shows that the thiolation could also occur at protein disulphide linkages when human serum albumin (HSA) was treated with disulphide molecules, such as cystine and homocystine. A chain reaction mechanism has been proposed for the thiolation at disulphide linkages, in which free cysteine (Cys34) is involved in the reaction with disulphide molecules to form free thiols (cysteine or homocysteine) that further react with protein disulphide linkages to form the thiolated cysteine residues in the protein. This review focuses on the recent finding of this unique chain reaction mechanism of protein thiolation.

    Abstract Turmeric extract, a mixture of curcumin and its demethoxy (DMC) and bisdemethoxy (BDMC) isomers, is used as an anti-inflammatory preparation in traditional Asian medicine. Curcumin is considered to be the major bioactive compound in turmeric but less is known about the relative anti-inflammatory potency and mechanism of the other components, their mixture, or the reduced in vivo metabolites. We quantified inhibition of the NF-κB pathway in cells, adduction to a peptide mimicking IκB kinase β, and the role of cellular glutathione as a scavenger of electrophilic curcuminoid oxidation products, suggested to be the active metabolites.

    Abstract Little is still known about both the effect of amino acids on the oxidation course of edible oils and the modifications that the former may undergo during this process. Bearing this in mind, the objective of this work was to study the evolution of a system consisting of soybean oil with 2% of l-lysine under heating at 70 °C and stirring conditions, analyzing how the co-oxidation of the oil and of the amino acid affects their respective evolutions, and trying to obtain information about the action mechanism of lysine on soybean oil oxidation. The study of the oil progress by 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR) showed that the presence of lysine noticeably delays oil degradation and oxidation products generation in comparison with a reference oil without lysine. Regarding lysine evolution, the analysis by 1H NMR and Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry of a series of aqueous extracts obtained from the oil containing lysine over time revealed the formation of lysine adducts, most of them at the &epsilon; position, with n-alkanals, malondialdehyde, (E)-2-alkenals, and toxic oxygenated α β-unsaturated aldehydes. However, this latter finding does not seem enough to explain the antioxidant action of lysine.
