4-hydroxynonenal is a reactive α, β-unsaturated aldehyde selected from the lipid peroxidation multiple unsaturated fatty acids (engl. Polyunsaturated fatty acids - PUFAs ) produced. During this process, proteins are in turn modified under conditions of oxidative stress , i. H. damaged.
history
4-HNE was characterized by Hermann Esterbauer and since then a large number of publications on this substance have appeared.
Biological importance
4-HNE has been linked to various diseases, especially Alzheimer's , cancer and arteriosclerosis .
Isomerism
4-Hydroxynonenal contains an asymmetrically substituted carbon-carbon double bond and an additional stereogenic center. Hence there are four isomeric compounds:
- ( E , R ) -4-hydroxynonenal,
- ( E , S ) -4-hydroxynonenal,
- ( Z , R ) -4-hydroxynonenal and
- ( Z , S ) -4-hydroxynonenal.
