ABSTRACT
The effects in fish (Sparus aurata) of dieldrin, previously reported to be an inducer of peroxisomal enzymes (Pedrajas et al., Comp. Biochem. Physiol. 115C (1996) 125-131), were compared with those of clofibrate. Although dieldrin provoked the more severe peroxisomal changes, both compounds induced oxidative stress as detected by the increased levels of microsomal thiobarbituric acid reactive substances; however the malondialdehyde (MDA) content, determined after HPLC separation of the MDA-TBA complex, was not significantly altered. These results suggest that, besides MDA, other aldehydes were formed in xenobiotic-injected fish, leading us to assess the oxidative effects of such xenobiotics by following changes in superoxide dismutase (SOD) pattern. New active SOD isoforms were detected by isoelectrofocusing in the light mitochondrial (LMF) and cytosolic (CF) fractions. Most of the new SOD bands could be reproduced in vitro by incubation of fish liver cell-free extracts with MDA. To clarify the effects of aldehydes, Cu,Zn- and Mn-SOD isoforms were purified and amino acid analysis was carried out. The new bands found in LMF and CF fractions were reproduced in vitro after incubation of pure SODs with MDA and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE), the new SOD bands formed being coincident with the loss of Lys or His residues. Lysine residues were preferentially derivatized after treatment of Cu,Zn-SOD with MDA, but in Mn-SOD the lysine residues were modified only after treatment with MDA, while the histidine residues were modified only by HNE. No change of SOD activity was detected after MDA or HNE exposure, although at the higher aldehyde concentrations used protein aggregates were formed. Therefore, the appearance of new active SOD bands, after isoelectrofocusing separation, can be proposed as a biomarker of oxidative stress.
