Metabolism of hydroperoxy-phospholipids in human hepatoma HepG2 cells

Two enzymatic mechanisms have been proposed for the metabolism of hydroperoxy-phospholipids: i) the combined action of phospholipase A2 and glutathione peroxidase, and/or ii) direct enzymatic reduction. The latter reaction may be catalyzed by selenium-dependent phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione...
