Abstract

Sunflower oil at a specific oxidation stage (when several oxygenated alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes are generated, mainly 4-hydroperoxy-trans-2-alkenals and 4-hydroxy-trans-2-alkenals), caused at 70 degrees C with aeration for 7 days, was administered intraperitoneally to rats. This oil was studied by means of solid phase micro-extraction followed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (SPME-GC/MS) and by proton nuclear magnetic resonance ((1)H-NMR). Oxidized sunflower oil (3 ml/kg/day) was administered to male Sprague-Dawley rats for 21 days. The control group was administered non-oxidized sunflower oil in the same volume and for the same duration as the experimental group. A significant decrease in the number of neural cells positively immunostained for TrkA receptor was detected in the frontal cortex of the experimental group, with respect to controls, suggesting both neuronal damage as well as a deficit in neuronal survival signalling at this level. This could lead to apoptosis of cholinergic neurons, which play a key role in memory and attention function. These results indicate that toxic substances present in the oxidized sunflower oil, among them 4-hydroxy-trans-2-nonenal (HNE) and 4-hydroperoxy-trans-2-nonenal (HPNE)...Continue Reading

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis
