| Scientific Background |
Dibromo-tyrosine is produced by the oxidative bromination of tyrosine residues. This reaction occurs via eosinophil peroxidase (EPO), an enzyme released by activated eosinophils. Upon activation of eosinophils, a respiratory burst occurs releasing elevated levels of O2 and H202. In the oxidation of tyrosine, EPO utilizes H202 to catalyze the peroxidation of physiological levels of bromine found within plasma to generate the brominating reagent hypobromous acid (HOBr)(1-5). Eosinophils play an immunomodulatory role through their recruitment to host sites of parasitic invasion. EPO levels also contribute to diseases such as asthma, cancers and allergic disorders where cellular activation is found to occur at pathological sites (6-10). Brominated products such as 3,5-dibromo-tyrosine serve as biological markers for in vivo eosinophil-mediated tissue damage which allows for understanding the overall roll oxidative stress has on pathways implicated in diseased states within organisms (4). |
