چکیده انگلیسی
Tocopherol vitamers [e.g., alpha-, gamma- and delta-tocopherol (α-TOC, γ-TOC and δ-TOC, respectively)] and their water-soluble 2,2â²-carboxyethyl hydroxychroman metabolites (e.g., α-, γ- and δ-CEHC) all possess antioxidant properties. As a consequence, and similarly to other natural antioxidants, vitamin E compounds may be useful in preventing inflammatory and oxidative-stress-mediated diseases. In this study, we investigated the concentration-dependent effect of tocopherols and water-soluble metabolites on a key event in oxidative stress, for example, the oxidative burst in neutrophils. It was found that not only α-TOC but also γ-TOC and δ-TOC as well as α-, γ- and δ-CEHC at physiological concentrations inhibit superoxide anion (O2
- â) production in phorbol-ester-stimulated neutrophils. This effect was mediated by the inhibition of the translocation and activation of protein kinase C (PKC) enzyme, which is the key event in the phorbol-ester signaling. Importantly, CEHCs were stronger inhibitors of PKC as compared with the vitamer precursors, and the gamma forms of both tocopherol and CEHC showed the highest inhibitory activities. Tocopherols, but not CEHCs, directly inhibit the fully activated nicotine-adenine-dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase. However, none of the test compounds was able to directly scavenge O2
- â when tested in a cell-free system. In conclusion, vitamin E compounds can control the neutrophil oxidative burst through the negative modulation of PKC-related signaling and NADPH oxidase activity. As an original finding, we observed that CEHC metabolites might contribute to regulate PKC activity in these cells. These results may have important implications in the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant role of vitamin E compounds.
