Popis: A lipoprotein present in trypsin-treated microsomes can be oxidized with formation of malondialdehyde in a system which contains NADPH, ferric ion-ADP complex, NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and a factor. This factor, a mixture of peptides, can be isolated from hepatic microsomes by trypsin digestion and successive gel filtration through Sephadex G-100 and G-25 columns. Lipid peroxidation in this system catalyzes the deiodination of thyroxine, as does NADPH-dependent lipid peroxidation in fresh hepatic microsomes. Thyroxine inhibits lipid peroxidation as it is deiodinated in this system.
