“Otherwise, KR 31372 and probucol strongly inhibited the production of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) caused by the incubation of LDL with Cu2+ion , and significantly reduced the intracellular oxidative stress when stimulated with H2O2.”

“ Probucol markedly decreased the susceptibility of LDL and intermediate density lipoprotein plus very low density lipoprotein (IDL + VLDL) particles to oxidation, as measured by the production of conjugated dienes when adding Cu2+.”

“The effects of Cu2+ were inhibited by a number of lipophilic antioxidants, including probucol , vitamin E, butylated hydroxytoluene, and a 21-aminosteroid, U74389G.”
“The delay in Cu2+ -induced LDL oxidation with probucol corresponded to the time required for free radical-mediated processes to convert probucol to a spiroquinone and a diphenoquinone.”
