Abstract

This review discusses the formation of hypochlorous acid HOCl and the role of reactive chlorinated species (RCS), which are catalysed by the enzyme myeloperoxidase MPO, mainly located in leukocytes and which in turn contribute to cellular oxidative stress. The reactions of RCS with various organic molecules such as amines, amino acids, proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and DNA are described, and an attempt is made to explain the chemical mechanisms of the formation of the various chlorinated derivatives and the data available so far on the effects of MPO, RCS and halogenative stress. Their presence in numerous pathologies such as atherosclerosis, arthritis, neurological and renal diseases, diabetes, and obesity is reviewed and were found to be a feature of debilitating diseases.

  • In granulocytes, H2O2 is quickly converted into hypochlorous acid HOCl by myeloperoxidase (MPO).

    “In granulocytes, H2O2 is quickly converted into hypochlorous acid HOCl [176] by the action of the enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO) contained within them.”
  • Myeloperoxidase (MPO) forms hypochlorous acid (HOCl) after reaction of chloride anion with hydrogen peroxide.

    “The enzyme myeloperoxidase MPO forms hypochlorous acid HOCl [176] after reaction of chloride anion with hydrogen peroxide.”
  • Taurine at 15 mM acts as a scavenger of HOCl, buffering collateral damage to cellular macromolecules.

    “A non-essential amino acid such as taurine, at a concentration of 15 mM, is found naturally in cells and acts as a scavenger of HOCl, buffering collateral damage to cellular macromolecules (proteins, lipids, and DNA) [153].”

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.
