a(CHEBI:"iron(2+)") positiveCorrelation a(HM:"ruptured complicated lesions") View Subject | View Object

Concentrations of iron, conjugated dienes and lipid hydroperoxides were elevated by about 2- fold in ruptured complicated lesions, as compared to atheromatous lesions (0.433 ± 0.075 vs. 0.185 ± 0.096 nmol Fe/mg tissue; 0.047 ± 0.019 vs. 0.021 ± 0.003 A234 conjugated dienes/mg tissue and 0.465 ± 0.110 vs. 0.248 ± 0.106 nmol LOOH/mg tissue, respectively) and complicated lesions contained 5.6 times more TBARs than atheromatous lesions (0.028 ± 0.012 vs. 0.005 ± 0.001 nmol/mg tissue).

a(CHEBI:"iron(2+)") positiveCorrelation bp(MESH:"Oxidative Stress") View Subject | View Object

This engenders the release of iron, which can promote further the oxidation of plaque lipids through redox cycling reactions. The result of these chemical reactions is the formation of deleterious oxidized ‘gruel’ which, among other things, leads to endothelial oxidative stress and ultimately to cytotoxicity.

a(CHEBI:"lipid hydroperoxide") increases p(HGNC:HBB, pmod(Ox)) View Subject | View Object

Hematomas occur in atheromatous lesions and plaque material contains lipid oxidation products including lipid hydroperoxide22 which can mediate not only the oxidation of hemoglobin but might also lyse intact red cells.23 PubMed:20378845
