A mechanism for the hydroperoxide-mediated inactivation of prostacyclin
synthetase
SJ Weiss, J Turk and P Needleman
Hydroxyl radical generation was demonstrated during heme-catalyzed
decomposition of 15-hydroperoxy arachidonic acid. The hydroperoxide-
mediated inactivation of prostacyclin synthetase seems to be related to the
generation of this highly reactive species. A relationship between
hydroperoxides and the hydroxyl radical may be important in the modulation
of prostacyclin synthesis in diseased states.
