摘要
Injury to mitochondria of macrophages caused by oxidized low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) and the role of lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH). lipid and protein in Ox-LDL on the injury were studied by measuring mito-chondrial membrane potential (MMP) on ACAS570. The results showed that MMP decreased when macrophageswere treated by Ox-LDL. If LOOH in Ox-LDL was pre cleared by ebselen plus GSH. the decreased MMP could be recovered by about 20 %. Lipid moiety alone had no effect on IMP, but protein moiety could cause decrease ofMMP, the extent of the decrease was equivalent to that caused by Ox-LDL in which LOOH was pre-cleared by ebselen plus GSH.
