Stimulated human alveolar macrophages were demonstrated to oxidize B-methyl proprionaldehyde (methional) or 2-keto-4-thiomethylbutyric acid to ethylene (C2H4). Agents which are believed to scavenge the hydroxyl radical (.OH), sodium benzoate, and mannitol, as well as scavengers of superoxide anion (O2-) or hydrogen peroxide, decreased C2H4 production, implicaing .OH as the oxidizing radical. Differences in C2H4 rpoduction, as well as oxygen uptake and O2- release between human alveolar macrophages and polymorphonuclear leukocytes, were also documented.
已证实,受刺激的人肺泡巨噬细胞可将β-甲基丙醛(甲硫醛)或2-酮-4-硫代甲基丁酸氧化为乙烯(C2H4)。据信可清除羟自由基(·OH)的试剂、苯甲酸钠和甘露醇,以及超氧阴离子(O2-)或过氧化氢的清除剂,均可降低C2H4的生成,这表明·OH是氧化自由基。还记录了人肺泡巨噬细胞与多形核白细胞在C2H4生成、氧摄取和O2-释放方面的差异。
