There is considerable interest in the role of the 1-hydroxyethyl radical (cas 16331-64-9) (HER) in the toxic effects of ethanol. The goal of this study was to evaluate the effects of HER on classical antioxidant enzymes. The interaction of acetaldehyde with hydroxylamine-o-sulfonic acid has been shown to produce 1,1′-dihydroxyazoethane (DHAE); this compound appears to be highly unstable, and its decomposition leads to the generation of HER. Addition of DHAE into a solution of PBN led to the appearance of the typical EPR spectra of PBN/HER adduct. No PBN/HER spin adduct was detected when DHAE was incubated with 0.1 M PBN in the presence of GSH. In the absence of PBN, DHAE oxidized ascorbic acid to semidehydroascorbyl radical, presumably via an ascorbate-dependent one-electron reduction of HER back to ethanol. Catalase was progressively inactivated by exposure to DHAE-generated HER in a time and HER concentration-dependent manner. Ascorbic acid and PBN gave full protection to catalase against HER-dependent inactivation. The antioxidants 2-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol, propylgallate, and α-tocopherol-protected catalase against inactivation by 84, 88, and 39%, respectively. Other antioxidant enzymes were also sensitive to exposure to HER. Glutathione reductase, glutathione peroxidase, and superoxide dismutase were inactivated by 46, 36, and 39%, respectively, by HER. The results reported here plus previous results showing HER interacts with GSH, ascorbate, and α-tocopherol suggest that prolonged generation of HER in cells from animals chronically exposed to ethanol may lower the antioxidant defense status, thereby contributing to mechanisms by which ethanol produces a state of oxidative stress and produces toxicity.
