Spin Trapping: An Essential Tool for the Study of Diseases Caused by Oxidative Stress

Abstract: Electron spin resonance (ESR), called also electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) together with the spin trapping technique, has allowed us to study and understand how free radicals are involved in various pathologies. In this review, the importance of spin trapping technique in the study of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, hypertension and parasitic diseases is discussed. In addition, advances in the use of this technique as therapeutic agents and other interesting applications as the immuno-spin trapping te… Show more

“…Spin trapping in cellular systems.-Spin traps have not only been applied in artificial sytems but also in biological and medical studies in vitro and in vivo. [426][427][428][429][430][431][432][433][434][435] Due to the complex composition of solutions and low radical production in such experiments, careful control and calibration experiments need to be performed for a quantitative interpretation of spin trapping ESR measurements. Particularly, when working with cells in physiological buffer solutions, Fenton type reactions often have to be controlled by using metal chelators to avoid strong background signals and artefacts.…”

“…However, the ability to detect ROS generation directly in vitro is limited due to analytical difficulties, attributable mainly to their very short half-life. The ESR spin-trapping technique employed in the present study is useful for direct measurement of the ROS generated in experimental models [28].…”

“…To perform the free radical detection in the parasitic medium, ESR spectroscopy was employed, using the technique of spin trapping. The spin-trap was DMPO, that can cross cell membranes and react with several centred carbon and oxygen free radicals [37][38][39]. A solution of DMSO was used as a control (no radical species were detected).…”
