GLUTATHIONE PEROXIDASE IN LENS AND A SOURCE OF HYDROGEN PEROXIDE IN AQUEOUS HUMOUR

Open access
PIRIE, A·1965·Biochemical Journal

Abstract

1. Glutathione peroxidase has been demonstrated in cattle, rabbit and guineapig lenses. 2. The enzyme will oxidize GSH either with hydrogen peroxide added at the start of the reaction or with hydrogen peroxide generated enzymically with glucose oxidase. 3. No product other than GSSG was detected. 4. Oxidation of GSH can be coupled with oxidation of malate through the intermediate reaction of glutathione reductase and NADPH(2). 5. Traces of hydrogen peroxide are present in aqueous humour: it is formed when the ascorbic acid of aqueous humour is oxidized. 6. Hydrogen peroxide will diffuse into the explanted intact lens and oxidize the contained GSH. The addition of glucose to the medium together with hydrogen peroxide maintains the concentration of lens GSH. 7. Glutathione peroxidase in lens extracts will couple with the oxidation of ascorbic acid. 8. It is suggested that, as there is only weak catalase activity in lens, glutathione peroxidase may act as one link between the oxygen of the aqueous humour and NADPH(2).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
