Although the pseudohalide thiocyanate
(SCN ) is the preferred substrate for eosinophil
peroxidase (EPO) in fluids of physiologic halide composition, the
product(s) of this reaction have not been directly identified, and
mechanisms underlying their cytotoxic potential are poorly
characterized. We used nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR),
electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, and quantitative chemical
analysis to identify the principal reaction products of both the
EPO/SCN /H2O2 system and activated
eosinophils as roughly equimolar amounts of OSCN
(hypothiocyanite) and OCN (cyanate). Red blood cells
exposed to increasing concentrations of
OSCN /OCN are first depleted of glutathione,
after which glutathione S-transferase and
glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase then ATPases undergo sulfhydryl (SH) reductant-reversible inactivation before lysing. OSCN /OCN inactivates red blood cell
membrane ATPases 10-1000 times more potently than do HOCl, HOBr, and
H2O2. Exposure of glutathione S-transferase to
[14C]OSCN /OCN causes SH
reductant-reversible disulfide bonding and covalent isotope labeling.
We propose that EPO/SCN /H2O2
reaction products comprise a potential SH-targeted cytotoxic system
that functions in striking contrast to HOCl, the highly but relatively
indiscriminantly reactive product of the neutrophil myeloperoxidase system.
