    Notes: The onset of the lipoprotein secretory block provoked by CCl4 in the whole animal was monitored after purification of liver Golgi membranes. Both lipid transit through the apparatus the apparatus and hexosylation of the lipoprotein are markedly inhibited 5-15 min after poisoning. Pre-treating the animal with alpha-tocopherol, shown to prevent lipid peroxidation without modifying the covalent binding due to CCl4 metabolites, affords little protection against lipid accumulation in the Golgi, but total preservation of galactosyl transferase activity. While haloalkylation therefore appears to be the major mechanism of damage in the early phases of CCl4-induced derangement of lipid secretion, lipid peroxidation is probably more involved later, this is indicated by the marked, though never complete, protection against fatty liver afforded at 24 h after CCl4 poisoning by supplementation of the membrane with alpha-tocopherol.

    Notes: 4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is produced during peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. It exerts a chemokinetic effect on human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN). Investigations of this mechanism were performed. The results indicate that [3H]-HNE binding to PMN results both in non-specific bonds to the numerous SH groups of the cells and in binding to a saturable, reversible and specific HNE site. Scatchard analysis revealed that this is a single site with an apparent affinity constant of 319 nM and a density of 1·57 pmol (106)-1 cells. This specific binding site may be involved in the chemokinetic effect of HNE.

    Notes: 4-Hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), produced during the oxidative lipid breakdown of biological membranes, modulates various biochemical processes in normal liver and in hepatoma cells. It is very probable that the effects of 4-HNE are related to the quantity formed in the cells and the cells' ability to metabolize it. Aldehyde catabolism takes place within the cells through oxidative and reductive enzymes, and through conjugation with intracellular glutathione. In this paper, the various enzymatic pathways involved in the metabolism of 4-HNE were studied in normal hepatocytes and in hepatoma cells. The hepatocyte pathway undergoes a complex variety of change during neoplastic transformation.In hepatoma cells, generally, 4-HNE metabolism was due mainly to aldehyde dehydrogenases, whereas in normal hepatocytes 4-HNE metabolism was mainly due to alcohol dehydrogenase and glutathione-S-transferase. The increase in oxidative enzymes compared to normal tissue was not the same in all types of hepatoma: in HTC hepatoma cells, the enzyme levels were considerably higher; in AH-130 hepatoma cells of Yoshida, they were lower in subcellular particles and similar in the cytosol. Indeed, consumption of externally-added 4-HNE in hepatoma cells was proportional to their content of 4-HNE metabolizing enzymes.

    Notes: The lipid peroxidation product 4-hydroxy-2,3-trans-nonenal (HNE) has a spectrum of biological effects on different cell types depending on the concentrations tested. In particular micromolar HNE concentrations stimulate neutrophil migration and polarization whereas higher doses inhibit.In our experimental conditions, fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP) increased CL production of both unstimulated and zymosan-stimulated neutrophils, whereas cell stimulation with low HNE concentrations as well as zymosan addition to HNE incubated cells did not enhance light emission. In contrast 10-4 M HNE reduced CL emission by unstimulated cells nearly to background values, completely depressed CL production by zymosan-stimulated cells and reduced phagocytosis. Cysteine was found to be able to counteract the HNE effect by about 70 per cent. The possibility that this aldehyde could exert its inhibitory effect through the alkylation of NADPH-oxidase SH-groups is postulated. Moreover, our present data on differences observed between fMLP and HNE indicate a different chemotactic mechanism induced by these two classes of compounds and lead to the conclusion that the local functional features of the attracted cells may be different.

    Notes: The mixed-function oxidase system shows a number of variations in the liver of diethyl-nitrosamine (DEN) treated rats. These include a decrease of the cytochrome P450 content and of the aminopyrine demethylase activity both in the hyperplastic nodules and in the hepatoma. Processes of detoxification, such as the glutathione system, show some modifications. These alterations are in accordance with the decrease of glutathione peroxidase and the increase of γ-glutamyltranspeptidase during diethyl-nitrosamine carcinogenesis.

    Notes: Some aldehydes, produced during lipid peroxidation of liver lipids, are able to inhibit the respiration of mitochondria and of intact cells both in normal hepatocytes and in Yoshida hepatoma. In mitochondria, the respiratory stimulation produced by addition of ADP and dinitrophenol is decreased more in hepatoma than in normal liver. Two- to four-fold higher concentrations of aldehydes are needed to obtain the same degree of inhibition in normal liver mitochondria as in tumorous organs. The effect of aldehydes on intact cell respiration is absent or very low in hepatocytes, but it is consistently observed in hepatoma cells.

    Notes: Disturbed cellular calcium homeostasis has been observed during CCl4 poisoning, with an increase in calcium content 1 h after administration. Intracellular increase of calcium may be expected to alter membrane/cytosol distribution of calmodulin (CaM). This paper investigates changes in rat liver subcellular CaM distribution 30 min, 1 h and 2 h after CCl4 intoxication. The whole liver value remained unchanged, whereas the nuclear fraction increased and the microsomal and cytosolic fraction decreased. This may suggest that CaM is involved in the several liver cell alterations caused by CCl4 poisoning.
