GSH was readily depleted by a flavonoid, H2O2, and peroxidase mixture but the products formed were dependent on the redox potential of the flavonoid. Catalytic amounts of apigenin and naringenin but not kaempferol (flavonoids that contain a phenol B ring) when oxidized by H2O2 and peroxidase cooxidized GSH to GSSG via a thiyl radical which could be trapped by 5,5-dimethyl-1-pynoline-N-oxide (DMPO) to form a DMPO-glutathionyl radical adduct detected by ESR spectroscopy. On the other hand, quercetin and luteolin (flavonoids that contain a catechol B ring) or kaempferol depleted GSH stoichiometrically without forming a thiyl radical or GSSG. Quercetin, luteolin, and kaempferol formed mono-GSH and bis-GSH conjugates, whereas apigenin and naringenin did not form GSH conjugates. MS/MS electrospray spectroscopy showed that mana-GSH conjugates for quercetin and luteolin had peaks at m/z 608 [M + H](+) and m/z 592 [M + H](+) in the positive-ion mode, respectively. H-1 NMR spectroscopy showed that the GSH was bound to the quercetin A ring. Spectral studies indicated that at a physiological pH the luteolin-SG conjugate was formed from a product with a UV maximum absorbance at 260 nm that was reducible by potassium borohydride. The quercetin-SG conjugate or kaempferol-So conjugate on the other hand was formed from a product with a UV maximum absorbance at 335 nm that was not reducible by potassium borohydride. These results suggest that GSH was oxidized by apigenin/naringenin phenoxyl radicals, whereas GSH conjugate formation involved the a-quinone metabolite of luteolin or the quinoid (quinone methide) product of quercetin/kaempferol.
