The GSH dependent reduction of a nitroxyl radical, TEMPOL, is accelerated temperature dependently. This reaction can be restricted by adding SOD or by deoxygenating the reaction mixture, therefore used as an index of O2- generation. In this presentation, the hyperthermia-induced ROS scavenging ability of rat plasma was tested. A reaction mixture containing 0.1 mM nitroxyl radical (TEMPOL) and 1 mM GSH was prepared using 100 mM phosphate buffer (PB) containing 0.05 mM DTPA. The reaction mixture was kept in a screw-top vial, and was incubated in a water bath at 37 or 44[deg]C. The time course of the EPR signal of TEMPOL in the reaction mixture was measured by an X-band EPR spectrometer (JEOL, Tokyo, Japan). The similar experiment was done using rat plasma instead of 100 mM PB. Effect of BSA and/or ascorbic acid was tested. ROS generation in an aqueous fluid containing oxygen at hyperthermal temperature was demonstrated. Adding 0.5% albumin to the reaction mixture could almost cancel the ROS generation at 37[deg]C; however, 0.5% albumin could not cancel the ROS at 44[deg]C, i.e. hyperthermal temperature. Ascorbic acid above 0.02 mM also could almost cancel ROS at 37[deg]C, however, 0.03 mM could cancel ROS at 44[deg]C. Hyperthermia induced ROS in rat plasma can be mostly canceled by relatively high concentration of albumin and ascorbic acid in the plasma., ICHO & JCTM 2012 (The 11th International Congress of Hyperthermic Oncology and The 29th Japanese Congress of Thermal Medicine)}, title = {Cancelation of Hyperhermia Induced Reactive Oxygen Species in Rat Plasma}, year = {2012} }
