Abstract

In Free Radical and Antioxidant Protocols, seventy-six leading international authorities describe cutting-edge methodologies for quantifying free radical and antioxidant analytes in tissue and body fluids using experimental models and in vitro procedures. These user-friendly and easily reproducible techniques cover the essential tasks, including radical generating systems, direct measurement or trapping of reactive radical species and acute-phase proteins, and measurement of metabolic intermediates derived from the oxidation of lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. There are also methods for the determination of vitamin, enzymatic, and water-soluble antioxidants, as well as of essential micronutrients and cofactors. The techniques take advantage of new instrumentation-probes, photon counting, chemiluminescence, and caged compounds, with an emphasis on HPLC-and are adaptable to a wide range of applications. Free Radical and Antioxidant Protocols provides state-of-the-art methodology and biotechnology in a convenient format for both academic and corporate biomedical scientists. The detailed, laboratory-tested free-radical assays, many of them presented here for the first time, will illuminate the study of both primary and secondary oxidative stress and contribute significantly to our understanding of the many disorders associated with this process.

Abstract

Oxidative stress has been linked to a variety of medical problems, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, arthritis, diabetes, and aging. Drawing on the growing volume of research into the impact of oxidative stress on pathophysiological mechanisms, Donald Armstrong updates and expands his highly praised Free Radical and Antioxidant Protocols (Humana, 1998) with a collection of new and valuable methods for evaluating the perturbations in cell function resulting from increased oxidative stress. Presented in a user-friendly, step-by-step format by accomplished investigators from prestigious universities, institutes, and laboratories around the world, these readily reproducible techniques cover both free radical-derived and antioxidant biomarkers. The methodologies demonstrated include ELISA, HPLC, infrared spectroscopy, gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy, immunoblotting, electroelution fractionation, isoelectric focusing, voltammetry, and electron paramagnetic resonance imaging. Special emphasis is given to the separation of complex mixtures of plant antioxidants, soft drug design to protect from toxic oxidative metabolites, in vitro oxidation conditions, and correcting for random measurement error to improve statistical interpretation. A soon-to-be-published companion volume, Oxidants and Antioxidants: Ultrastructure and Molecular Biology Protocols (Humana, 2002), contains state-of-the-art molecular and ultrastructural methods that expand the total number of protocols to 109 assays. Cutting-edge and highly practical, Oxidative Stress Biomarkers and Antioxidant Protocols provides many powerful new tools for detecting oxidative stress and for investigating the possibilities for therapeutic intervention monitoring in a variety of serious diseases.

Abstract

Essential in biological functions like cell signaling and, when disturbed, a likely cause of disease, lipids have proven to be a vital force in cell biology. In Lipidomics: Methods and Protocols, an international panel of experts present a wide variety of reviewed as well as unpublished data on isolation techniques, structural analysis, lipid rafts, lipid trafficking and profiling, biomarkers, lipid peroxidation, biostatistics applied to lipids, software tools, and bioinformatics. These studies range from simple systems, such as in yeast, to complex biological models. Samples used in these studies include: mitochondria, microsomes, endosomal membranes, RBS and plasma membranes, vesicles, caveolae, liposomes, macrophages, meibum, brain, microglia, retina, adipose tissue, keratinocytes, pulmonary surfactant, and hepatic cultures. Volume 2 focuses on oxidized lipids, trafficking and profiling, software, bioinformatics, and biostatistics. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, the chapters include useful introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary equipment and materials, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and authoritative notes on troubleshooting and avoiding common pitfalls. Comprehensive and cutting-edge, Lipidomics: Methods and Protocols will support researchers who wish to increase their utilization of lipidomics, which will certainly lead to more powerful technology, improved diagnostic-prognostic capabilities, and the identification of new valuable products.

Abstract

Advanced Protocols in Oxidative Stress III continues the thread of the first two books by covering technology ranging from a portable hand-held detector for remote analysis of antioxidant capacity to sophisticated technology such as shotgun lipidomics, mitochondrial imaging, nanosensors, fluorescent probes, chromatographic fingerprints, computational models, and biostatistical applications. Several chapters have shown the effect of pro-oxidation and antioxidants as inflammatory mediators in signaling pathways leading from the initial stimulus to termination through redox cycles. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Comprehensive and practical, Advanced Protocols in Oxidative Stress III offers to save investigators significant time and effort, allowing them to focus on their own personal topic of interest.

Abstract

It is now feasible to identify subcellular sites where oxidative stress reactions occur and to determine gene expression relevant to those complex pathways. In Oxidants and Antioxidants: Ultrastructure and Molecular Biology Protocols, a panel of world authorities present cutting-edge molecular and ultrastructure techniques for investigating the pathophysiology of oxidative stress. Described in step-by-step detail, these readily reproducible methods use the latest in immunodetection, X-ray diffraction, confocal microscopy, in situ hybridization, chemiluminescence, and cytofluorescence. Additional techniques take advantage of electron paramagnetic resonance, advanced glycation endproducts, Western blotting analysis, transcription factors, p47phox translocation, and microsphere delivery systems. The collection emphasizes the visual observation of free radicals or products altered by oxidative stress, and includes numerous in vivo, ex vivo, and in vitro applications. Two companion volumes, Oxidative Stress Biomarkers and Antioxidant Protocols (2002), and Free Radical and Antioxidant Protocols (1998), focus on the related biochemical and cellular biological methods. Authoritative and highly practical, Oxidants and Antioxidants: Ultrastructure and Molecular Biology Protocols provides a comprehensive collection of powerful ultrastructure and molecular tools for the evaluation of metabolic disorders linked to oxidative stress and the aging process.
