## Abstract Several pieces of evidence indicate that albumin modified by HNE is a promising biomarker of systemic oxidative stress and that HNE‐modified albumin may contribute to the immune reactions triggered by lipid peroxidation‐derived antigens. In this study, we found by HPLC analysis that HNE

Abstract
Cytochrome c is a key mitochondrial respiratory protein that is particularly susceptible to modification during oxidative stress. The nature of this susceptibility is linked to the mitochondrial membrane being rich in esterified linoleic acid, which predisposes this organelle to the formation of lipid peroxidation products such as 4‐hydroxy‐2‐(E)‐nonenal (4‐HNE). To better understand the nature of cytochrome c modification by 4‐HNE, we initiated an in vitro study utilizing a combination of MALDI‐TOF mass spectrometry, LC‐ESI‐MS/MS and isotope labeling to monitor 4‐HNE modification of cytochrome c under various conditions. The overwhelming reaction observed is Michael addition by Lys side‐chains in addition to the modification of His 33. While the Lys‐4‐HNE adducts were generally observed to be reversible, the 4‐HNE‐His 33 was observed to be stable with half of the formed adduct surviving the denaturation and proteolysis protocols used to generate proteolytic peptides for LC–ESI‐MS/MS.

## Abstract The aim of this work was to synthesize ^13^C internal standards for the quantification of 4‐hydroxy‐2(E)‐nonenal (HNE), a lipid peroxidation product, and of the etheno‐adducts possibly formed by HNE damage to DNA nucleobases. We designed an eight‐step synthesis starting from ethyl 2‐bro
