A-Beta Metabolism and Alzheimer’s Disease
Posted on 2010-03-16
|  |
More Oxidative stress markers characterize the neuropathology both of Alzheimer's disease and of amyloid-bearing transgenic mice. The neurotoxicity of amyloid A beta peptides has been linked to peroxide generation in cell cultures by an unknown mechanism. We now show that human A beta directly produces hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) by a mechanism that involves the reduction of metal ions, Fe(III) or Cu(II), setting up conditions for Fenton-type chemistry. Spectrophotometric experiments establish that the A beta peptide reduces Fe(III) and Cu(II) to Fe(II) and Cu(I), respectively. Spectrochemical techniques are used to show that molecular oxygen is then trapped by A beta and reduced to H2O2 in a reaction that is driven by substoichiometric amounts of Fe(II) or Cu(I). In the presence of Cu(II) or Fe(III), A beta produces a positive thiobarbituric-reactive substance (TBARS) assay, compatible with the generation of the hydroxyl radical (OH.). The amounts of both reduced metal and TBARS reactivity are greatest when generated by A beta 1-42 >> A beta 1-40 > rat A beta 1-40, a chemical relationship that correlates with the participation of the native peptides in amyloid pathology. These findings indicate that the accumulation of A beta could be a direct source of oxidative stress in Alzheimer's disease. To thank me use this links! If you can't, use this link!
