Notizen:
Lipid peroxidation rate in four different hepatomas is quite different and seems to be related to their degree of deviation, low deviation tumours displaying higher peroxidative ability. Moreover, the supernatant of the highly anaplastic Yoshida hepatoma is able to decrease the peroxidation rate in normal liver microsomes. This antioxidant ability is not dependent upon an increased level of glutathione. The concentration of reduced glutathione (GSH) declines strongly during incubation in conditions favouring lipid peroxidation. Unlike normal liver homogenates, this decline of GSH in hepatomas is not due to the transformation of GSH into oxidized glutathione (GSSG) but mostly to the increased activity of the γ-glutamyl-transpeptidase pathway.
