Effect of Corn Oil Feeding on Lipid Peroxidation in Rats

Abstract: Three groups of male rats were maintained on 10% fat diets containing 0.5, 5 or 10% corn oil or olive oil with 80--400 mg DL-alpha-tocopherol per kilogram. After 4 weeks on such regimens, TBA (thiobarbituric acid) values in serum, liver mitochondria and microsomes, and adipose tissue increased with rising amounts of dietary corn oil. TBA values in rats fed the 10% corn oil diet were reduced with the increase of dietary tocopherol but were still higher than the corresponding values of the 10% olive oil and 0.5%… Show more

“…Recent studies have suggested that oxidant stress may play an important role in the pathogenesis of hepatic injury during cholestasis (6,(12)(13)(14)(15)(16). Supporting this proposed mechanism is the observation that ␣-tocopherol, the major membraneassociated, lipid-soluble antioxidant, reduces both the generation of ROS and injury to hepatocytes exposed to hydrophobic bile acids (17,18) and in the intact rat infused with bile acids (6).…”

“…It has been shown that the fatty acid composition of various tissues, including the erythrocytes, can be altered by dietary fats in particular,results in increases in membrane linoleic and arachidonic acids. Since linoleic acid can undergo lipid peroxidation in vivo [21], this raises the question whether the difference in the amount of corn oil added to the two diets resulted in a difference in the amount of linoleic acid incorporated into the membrane and consequently accounts for the difference in erythrocyte oxidant stress. Data from studies on the effect of dietary corn oil on the erythrocyte membrane fatty acid profile indicate that, in general, amounts of corn oil greater than the 5% used here are necessary to produce significant changes in erythrocyte fatty acids.…”

“…Hydroperoxides may convert to other radical species that can damage cell membrane [4]. A high concentration of PUFA's in the cell membrane make them very susceptible to peroxidative damage [5,6] and ultimately the damage can be of such an extent that it may result in cell death due to the interaction of peroxidation products with biomolecules of important and/or regulatory functions [7]. The peroxidation of membrane lipids may result in inactivation of membrane bound enzymes, cross-linking of membrane lipids and proteins, damage to membrane receptors and ultimately cell death [8][9][10].…”
