pubmed:abstractText
Nuclei isolated from Ehrlich-Lettré ascites tumour cells catalyze the co-oxidation of epinephrine to adrenochrome in the presence of NADPH. Adrenochrome formation is sensitive to superoxide dismutase but not to scavengers of hydroxyl radicals or singlet oxygen. Addition of NADPH also initiates the production of hydrogen peroxide. Moreover measurements of superoxide dismutase activity indicate the presence of this enzyme in the ascites cell nuclei, although the sensitivity of adrenochrome formation to externally added superoxide dismutase indicates that the endogenous enzyme is not sufficient for a complete protection from superoxide radicals.
