Acrolein and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) are by-products of lipid peroxidation and are thought to play central roles in various traumatic injuries and disease states that involve cellular oxidative stress; e.g., spinal cord trauma, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease. In this Commentary, we will discuss the chemical attributes of acrolein and HNE that determine their toxicities. Specifically, these aldehydes are classified as type-2 alkenes and are characterized by an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl structure. This structure is a conjugated system that contains mobile pi electrons. The carbonyl oxygen atom is electronegative and can promote the withdrawal of mobile electron density from the β carbon atom causing regional electron deficiency. Based on this type of electron polarizability, both acrolein and HNE are considered to be soft electrophiles that preferentially form 1,4-Michael type adducts with soft nucleophiles. Proteomic, quantum mechanical and kinetic data will be presented indicating that cysteine sulfhydryl groups are the primary soft nucleophilic targets of acrolein and HNE. This is in contrast to nitrogen groups on harder biological nucleophiles such as lysine or histidine residues. The toxicological outcome of adduct formation is not only dependent upon residue selectivity, but also the importance of the targeted amino acid in protein function or structure. In attempting to discern the toxicological significance of a given adduct, we will consider the normal roles of cysteine, lysine and histidine residues in proteins and the relative merits of corresponding adducts in the manifestations of diseases or toxic states. Understanding the molecular actions of acrolein and HNE could provide insight into many pathogenic conditions that involve initial cellular oxidative stress and could, thereby, offer new efficacious avenues of pharmacological defense.
