Lipid Peroxidation Product

Molecular classification
Small molecule, Metabolite, Aldehyde, Hydroperoxide
01

Overview

Lipid peroxidation products are a diverse group of molecules generated during the oxidative degradation of lipids, particularly polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), in biological membranes. This process is initiated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) or free radicals and results in primary products like lipid hydroperoxides (LOOH) and secondary products like malondialdehyde (MDA) and 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE). These products can modify proteins and DNA, contributing to cellular dysfunction and various diseases, including cancer, atherosclerosis, and neurodegenerative disorders.
