摘要
This study was designed to explore the possible preventive effects of a novel radicophile, N-p-methoxyphenylacetyl-dehydroalanine (AD5) and three other antioxidants, N, N′-diphenyl-p-phenylenediamine (DPPD), butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and a water-soluble analogue of vitamin E, trolox C, on the acute effects of the liver of feeding a choline-deficient (CD) diet. It has been suggested that some of the acute effects of a CD diet are related to free radicals, the generation or metabolism of which is disturbed in this acute dietary model. AD5 was found to be very effective in preventing nuclear lipid peroxidation, DNA damage and cell death induced by a CD diet but to have little effect on triglyceride accumulation ("fatty liver"). DPPD, BHA, and trolox C were ineffective. These results add strength to the hypothesis that oxygen free radicals might be an important component in the early events during carcinogenesis induced by feeding a CD diet. © 1990.
