Glutathione S‐Transferase 8‐8 Expression Is Lower in Alcohol‐Preferring Than in Alcohol‐Nonpreferring Rats

Abstract: Objective-A primary focus of alcohol research is to provide novel targets for alcohol treatment by identifying genes that predispose individuals to drink alcohol. Animal models of alcoholism developed by selective breeding are invaluable tools to elucidate both the genetic nature and the underlying biological mechanisms that contribute to alcohol dependence. These selected lines (high alcohol preferring and low alcohol preferring) display phenotypic and genetic differences that can be studied to further our un… Show more

“…The transferases can reduce cholesterylhydroperoxides [20], fatty acid hydroperoxides, (S)-9-hydroproxy-10, 12-octodecadieonic acid and (S)-13-hydroperoxy-9, 11-octadecadieonic acid [21]. That the lipid peroxidation end products like 2-alkenals acrolein, crotonaldedyde and 4-hydroxy-2-alkenals are conjugate with GSH by GSTs [21].…”

“…The transferases can also reduce cholesteryl hydroperoxides [21] and fatty acid hydroperoxides, including (S)-9-hydroperoxy-10,12-octadecadieonic acid and (S)-13-hydroperoxy-9,11-octadecadieonic acid [20]. Among the end-products of lipid peroxidation, GSTs conjugate GSH with the 2-alkenals acrolein and crotonaldehyde, as well as 4-hydroxy-2-alkenals of between 6 and 15 carbon atoms in length [22]. Further, GSTs catalyze the conjugation of cholesterol-5,6-oxide,epoxyeicosatrienoic acid, and 9,10-epoxystearic acid with GSH indicating its role in cellular protection against a range of harmful electrophiles of oxidative stress [2].…”
