1. Effect of ferric ions (Fe3+) on the lipid peroxidation catalyzed by copper ions (Cu2+) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was studied in human erythrocyte membranes. 2. The formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive products elicited by CuCl2/H2O2 was inhibited by FeCl3 in a concentration-dependent manner; 0.25 mM FeCl3 were enough to cause 50% inhibition of the formation of peroxides. 3. The inhibitory effect of FeCl3 is not due to competition against Cu2+. 4. FeCl3 inhibited the initiation, but did not inhibit the propagation of Cu2+/H2O2-catalyzing lipid peroxidation. 5. In the heat- or trypsin-treated erythrocyte membranes, FeCl3 had no inhibitory effect on Cu2+/H2O2-catalyzing lipid peroxidation. 6. Sodium azide, an inhibitor of catalase, had no effect on the inhibitory effect of FeCl3. 7. These results suggest that a protein factor(s), which is not catalase, is involved in the inhibition of Cu2+/H2O2-catalyzing lipid peroxidation by Fe3+.
