To determine the effect of consumption of FOC on endogenous antioxidant enzyme activity, the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) were determined in the liver, colon and tumor of mice that had consumed the diet for two weeks.
1) suggest that mutant SOD1 G93Acauses MVISE in vivo.
The first proposes that the mutated SOD1 interacts with NO to produce peroxynitrite (ONOO -), which damages proteins by modifying tyrosine to nitrotyrosine residues [ 42 43 44 ] . The second postulates that the mutant SOD1 possesses an enhanced peroxidase activity, which causes oxidative modification of nucleic acids, proteins and lipids [ 45 46 47 ] . Both of these activities require copper at the active center of SOD1.
2, 10) suggests that mutant SOD1 interacts with mitochondrial membrane and this interaction promotes aggregation.
The increased cell death induced by direct targeting of mutant SOD1 to mitochondria supports this possibility [ 27 ] . Interestingly, low levels (compared with the levels caused by mutant SOD1) of mitochondrial vacuolation can also be caused by expression of high levels of wild type SOD1 [ 7 13 15 41 ] , suggesting that the mitochondria-damaging property also exists in the wild type protein and this property strengthens by the mutations.
