Oxydation de phospholipides polyinsaturés dans des systèmes membranaires biomimétiques (effets de molécules amphiphiles et d'enzymes antioxydantes)

Le stress oxydant résulte de l'altération par des radicaux libres de nombreuses cibles cellulaires. De nombreuses maladies ainsi que les phénomènes liés au vieillissement découlent de ces attaques radicalaires. Afin de mieux cerner les processus physiopathologiques liés au stress oxydant, nous nous sommes intéressés à l'oxydation lipidique des membranes dans un système membranaire biomimétique : les monocouches de Langmuir. Les études ont porté sur l'oxydation d'un phospholipide polyinsaturé, la 1,2-dilinoléoyl-sn-glycéro-3-phosphocholine (DLiPC). L'oxydation de la DLiPC, réalisée par exposition à un rayonnement UV à 254 nm, se traduit par une diminution de l'aire moléculaire. Après irradiation, les isothermes de compression et le module d'élasticité de surface révèlent l'apparition de nouvelles espèces moléculaires à l'interface air-eau. Grâce à ce système d'analyse, nous avons testé les propriétés d'agents anti-oxydants naturels (plasmalogène et cholestérol) et d'antioxydants synthétiques (dérivés de l' -phényl-N-tert-butylnitrone). En déterminant le temps de latence, précédent la diminution d'aire moléculaire, ainsi que l'amplitude de cette diminution, l'effet protecteur de ces molécules a pu être quantifié. Nous avons ensuite comparé les propriétés interfaciales des deux enzymes impliquées dans le stress oxydant : les peroxydases à glutathion (GPx) de type 1 et 4. Les différences de comportement observées pour les deux GPx indiquent une affinité différente selon la nature du phospholipide insaturé à l'interface air-eau pour la GPx-4 ce qui n'est pas le cas pour la GPx-1. Nous avons également caractérisé les propriétés interfaciales des adduits de Michaël qui résultent de la modification de phospholipides par des produits d'oxydation.LYON1-BU.Sciences (692662101) / SudocSudocFranceF

PBN derived amphiphilic spin-traps. II/Study of their antioxidant properties in biomimetic membranes.

International audienceThe work reported herein deals with the evaluation of the antioxidant properties of bitailed amphiphilic ␣-phenyl-N-tert-butylnitrone derivatives (BPBNs) towards oxidation of an unsaturated lipid, the 1,2-dilinoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DLoPC). Oxidation was induced either by UV light irradiation or radical initiators, i.e. the water soluble AAPH and the Fenton reaction, and the antioxidant evaluation was carried out using two biomimetic systems, namely Langmuir monolayers and large unilamellar vesicles. Measurement of the molecular area and the membrane fluidity of pure nitrone monolayers before and after UV-irradiation demonstrated the better stability and antioxidant properties of B 17 PBN, the derivative with two C 17 H 35 alkyl chains, compared to its analogue B 11 PBN with two C 11 H 23 alkyl chains. At only 5% molar ratio of nitrone in mixed DLoPC/nitrone monolayers, a complete inhibition of the molecular area decrease was observed for B 17 PBN whereas B 11 PBN showed lower protection. The oxidation of mixed DLoPC/nitrones large unilamellar vesicles in the presence of free radicals arising from AAPH decomposition or Fenton reaction was assessed by measuring lipid conjugated dienes and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances on the whole series of nitrone, i.e. C 11-, C 13-, C 15-and C 17-based compounds. Compared to the saturated 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, all bitailed amphiphilic nitrones were able to decrease conjugated dienes and TBARS in both oxidative paradigms, demonstrating therefore antioxidant property. The inhibition of phospholipids oxidation was increased when increasing the concentration of nitrone with the two B 11 PBN and B 13 PBN derivatives exhibiting higher potency. This study underlines the importance in the choice of a model membrane system when evaluating the potency of antioxidants against lipid oxidation

Plasmalogens protect unsaturated lipids against UV-induced oxidation in monolayer

AbstractOxidative stress results from the attack by free radicals of several cellular targets (proteins, DNA and lipids). The cell equilibrium is a direct consequence of the pro-/antioxidant balance. In order to understand the physiological processes involved in oxidative stress, we followed oxidation of unsaturated lipids using a biomimetic system: Langmuir monolayers. The oxidation mode chosen was UV-irradiation and the lipid model was a polyunsaturated phospholipid: 1,2-dilinoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DLPC). The monomolecular film technique was used to measure membrane rheology before and after UV-irradiation. We showed that the UV-irradiation of a DLPC monomolecular film led to a molecular area and surface elasticity modulus decrease that attests to the apparition of new molecular species at the air–water interface. The antioxidant effect of a synthetic plasmalogen (1-O-(1′-(Z)-hexadecenyl)-2-O-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine or PPLMOPE) was tested on the oxidation of DLPC. Indeed, for about 25% mol PPLMOPE in mixed DLPC/PPLMOPE monolayers, a complete inhibition of the molecular area and the surface elasticity modulus decreases was observed in our experimental conditions. Lower PPLMOPE quantities delayed but did not prevent the DLPC oxidation in mixed monolayers

Elliptic anisotropy measurement of the f0_0(980) hadron in proton-lead collisions and evidence for its quark-antiquark composition

International audienceDespite the f$_0$(980) hadron having been discovered half a century ago, the question about its quark content has not been settled: it might be an ordinary quark-antiquark ($\mathrm{q\bar{q}}$) meson, a tetraquark ($\mathrm{q\bar{q}q\bar{q}}$) exotic state, a kaon-antikaon ($\mathrm{K\bar{K}}$) molecule, or a quark-antiquark-gluon ($\mathrm{q\bar{q}g}$) hybrid. This paper reports strong evidence that the f$_0$(980) state is an ordinary $\mathrm{q\bar{q}}$ meson, inferred from the scaling of elliptic anisotropies ($v_2$) with the number of constituent quarks ($n_\mathrm{q}$), as empirically established using conventional hadrons in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The f$_0$(980) state is reconstructed via its dominant decay channel f$_0$(980) $\to$$\pi^+\pi^-$, in proton-lead collisions recorded by the CMS experiment at the LHC, and its $v_2$ is measured as a function of transverse momentum ($p_\mathrm{T}$). It is found that the $n_q$ = 2 ($\mathrm{q\bar{q}}$ state) hypothesis is favored over $n_q$ = 4 ($\mathrm{q\bar{q}q\bar{q}}$ or $\mathrm{K\bar{K}}$ states) by 7.7, 6.3, or 3.1 standard deviations in the $p_\mathrm{T}$$\lt$ 10, 8, or 6 GeV/$c$ ranges, respectively, and over $n_\mathrm{q}$ = 3 ($\mathrm{q\bar{q}g}$ hybrid state) by 3.5 standard deviations in the $p_\mathrm{T}$$\lt$ 8 GeV/$c$ range. This result represents the first determination of the quark content of the f$_0$(980) state, made possible by using a novel approach, and paves the way for similar studies of other exotic hadron candidates

Search for CPCP violation in D0^0→\to KS0^0_\mathrm{S}KS0^0_\mathrm{S} decays in proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV

International audienceA search is reported for charge-parity D$^0$$\to$ K$^0_\mathrm{S}$K$^0_\mathrm{S}$$CP$ violation in D$^0$$\to$ K$^0_\mathrm{S}$K$^0_\mathrm{S}$ decays, using data collected in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV recorded by the CMS experiment in 2018. The analysis uses a dedicated data set that corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 41.6 fb$^{-1}$, which consists of about 10 billion events containing a pair of ẖadrons, nearly all of which decay to charm hadrons. The flavor of the neutral D meson is determined by the pion charge in the reconstructed decays D$^{*+}$$\to$ D$^0\pi^+$ and D$^{*-}$$\to$ D$^0\pi^-$. The D$^0$$\to$ K$^0_\mathrm{S}$K$^0_\mathrm{S}$$CP$ asymmetry in D$^0$$\to$ K$^0_\mathrm{S}$K$^0_\mathrm{S}$ is measured to be $A_{CP}$( K$^0_\mathrm{S}$K$^0_\mathrm{S}$) = (6.2 $\pm$ 3.0 $\pm$ 0.2 $\pm$ 0.8)%, where the three uncertainties represent the statistical uncertainty, the systematic uncertainty, and the uncertainty in the measurement of the D$^0$ $\to$ K$^0_\mathrm{S}$K$^0_\mathrm{S}$ $CP$ asymmetry in the D$^0$ $\to$ K$^0_\mathrm{S}\pi^+\pi^-$ decay. This is the first D$^0$ $\to$ K$^0_\mathrm{S}$K$^0_\mathrm{S}$ $CP$ asymmetry measurement by CMS in the charm sector as well as the first to utilize a fully hadronic final state

Search for heavy neutral leptons in final states with electrons, muons, and hadronically decaying tau leptons in proton-proton collisions at s\sqrt{s} =13 TeV

International audienceA search for heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) of Majorana or Dirac type using proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}$ =13 TeV is presented. The data were collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. Events with three charged leptons (electrons, muons, and hadronically decaying tau leptons) are selected, corresponding to HNL production in association with a charged lepton and decay of the HNL to two charged leptons and a standard model (SM) neutrino. The search is performed for HNL masses between 10 GeV and 1.5 TeV. No evidence for an HNL signal is observed in data. Upper limits at 95% confidence level are found for the squared coupling strength of the HNL to SM neutrinos, considering exclusive coupling of the HNL to a single SM neutrino generation, for both Majorana and Dirac HNLs. The limits exceed previously achieved experimental constraints for a wide range of HNL masses, and the limits on tau neutrino coupling scenarios with HNL masses above the W boson mass are presented for the first time

Search for baryon number violation in top quark production and decay using proton-proton collisions at s= \sqrt{s} = 13 TeV

A search is presented for baryon number violating interactions in top quark production and decay. The analysis uses data from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected with the CMS detector at the LHC with an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. Candidate events are selected by requiring two oppositely-charged leptons (electrons or muons) and exactly one jet identified as originating from a bottom quark. Multivariate discriminants are used to separate the signal from the background. No significant deviation from the standard model prediction is observed. Upper limits are placed on the strength of baryon number violating couplings. For the first time the production of single top quarks via baryon number violating interactions is studied. This allows the search to set the most stringent constraints to date on the branching fraction of the top quark decay to a lepton, an up-type quark (u or c), and a down-type quark (d, s, or b). The results improve the previous bounds by three to six orders of magnitude based on the fermion flavor combination of the baryon number violating interactions.A search is presented for baryon number violating interactions in top quark production and decay.
