Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) is one of the most important antioxidative selenoenzymes in living organisms. The novel GPx mimic 6,6'-ditellurobis(6-deoxy-beta-cyclodextrin) (6-TeCD) was prepared and evaluated for its capacity to catalyze the reduction of H2O2, tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH), and cumene hydroperoxide (CuOOH) by glutathione (GSH) or 3-carboxy-4-nitrobenzenethiol (ArSH). Compared the ArSH assay with the coupled reductase assay, we found that 6-TeCD exhibited strong substrate specificity for aromatic thiol substrate. The specificity led to efficient peroxidase activity almost 100,000-fold than that for a well-known GPx mimic diphenyl diselenide (PhSeSePh). Furthermore, reduction of lipophilic CuOOH was proceeded ca. 30 times faster than the more hydrophilic H2O2, which cannot bind into the hydrophobic cavity of beta-cyclodextrin. Thus, it seemed that catalytic activity of cyclodextrin-derived GPx models strongly depends on the structurally different both substrates hydroperoxides (ROOH) and thiols.
